A COming Event-The Boston Adoer.
tiser says: "rhe eclipse of the moon on July
20 will in general be repetition of that
witnessed by substantially the whole popu-
lation on January % last. One difference
will be that the forthcoming eclipse takes
place near midnight, while the former one
was observable Immediately after sunset,
when the moon rose partly eclipsed. An
other difference for the expert observer will
be that the apparent path of the moon will
be In another part of the sky, bringing a
different set of stars into occultaton. Both
to popular vision and to the eye OF the as.
tronomer the pageant now to be Witnessed
the hot weather being tair--is Of somewhat
superior interest to that OF last winter, be.
cause the beginning as well as the totality
and end of the eclipse will be seen. The
astronomer has also the advantage this time
OF having the moon near the meridian dur
ing the whole passage. A total eclipse of
the moon is rare event, partial eclpses be-
ing comparatively frequent. No lunar sat
elite was found in January last, and the
only possibility OF finding one now is in the
contingency that the satellite may then
have been in position behind the moon"

B0iIs and CarbunCIes,

which defy ordinary treatment, yield to
Ayers Sarsaparilla after u comparative
ly brief trial.
Mr.. G. X. Murray, of Charlottesville,
Va, writes that for years he was af-
flicted with boils which caused him
much suffering These We're succeeded
by carbuncles, of which he had several
at one time. He then began the use of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, and after taking
three bottles, the earbuncles dsap-
peared, and for six years he has not had
even pimple.
That insidious disease, Scrofula, is
the fruitful cause of innumerable COM
plants, Consumption being only one of
many equally fatal. Eruptions, ulcers,
sore eyes, glandular swellings, weak
and wasted muscles, a capricious appe-
tite, and the like, are pretty sure indi-
cations of scrofulous faint in the
system. Many otherwise beautiful faces
are disfgnred by pimples. eruptions.
and unsightly blotches, which arise
from impure blood. showing the need of
Ayers Sarsaparilla to remedy the evil.
All sufferers from blood disorders
should give Ayers Sarsaparilla fans
trial, avoiding all powders, ointments,
and washes, and especially cheap and
worthless compounds, which not only
fail to effect cure, but more frequently
aggravate and confirm the diseases they
are fraudulently advertised to remedy.

Adjudged Insane.-On Tuesday last
VIM. Davis, well-known citizen of this
county, and who has for number of years
kept the toll-gate at Sligo, on the 7th street
pike. was brought to this place, and after a
hearing before jury was adjudged insane,
and the same day taken to the Maryland
Asylum, near Baltimore, for treatment. Mr..
Davis has shown symptoms of insanity for
several weeks, but not being considered dan
gerous has been kept at home by his family !;
but during last week he became SO much
worse that it was deemed advisable to have
him removed to place of safety both to
himself and others. When brought here
and during the legal investigation he be-
came at times quite violent and it required
the efforts OF several persons to keep him
quiet. For some months he has occupied
his mind in the invention of steam car.
riage, and it is thought the study has been too
much for his nervous system and caused the
development OF insanity. He is u son of the
late Nimrod Davis, and is about 60 years of
age. The unfortunate man has wife and
several children, who have the undivided
sympathy of the community in their afflc

needed him not, but looked steadily upon
the snake. He .dismounted, took the dog
by the head and thrust him off, when the
