81 have seen in several of the New England
newspapers telegram which says that Mr.. Frank
Burr who has written a life of Gen Sheridan, was
an intimate friend of my husband; that Gen. Sheri
dan allied him in the preparation of his book
and in revising 1t. The statements thus made are
untrue. Gen. Sheridan was never an intimate
friend of Mr.. Burr and he not only never aided him
in the preparation or revision of any book, but he
ordered Mr.. Burr from his Office when that gentle

Mr.. "Chally' Ebey, the young man
whose effervescent friends contemplate
having make a tour of the Seventh con-

Democratic candidate for congress, Will
declaim his little piece in this city to-
night.
Buck" is a young man with a happy
faculty for declaiming nicely. His delicate
lisp is quite catchy" with the ladies. He
Is also a young gentleman who can sit
down with book of poetic quotations"
and select from it just as many, just as
pretty little flights of fancy as most any
one who ever competed for prize
at any high school commencement.
He understands, too. that the best way TO
excite the admiration of his Democratic
friends is 20 .befuddle" them by interlard-
ing into his speeches some stray references
to characters IN biblical or ancient history
of whom his following never heard, and
whose names they cannot more than pro-
nounce when mention ed TO them.
'Cholly" is quite an adroit young man,
but ne is now surrounded and being
handled" by some of the most visionary
bosses that ever ran Democratic cam
pa ign. He can with great propriety pray
to be delivered from the hands OF his
friends.

WILSON Is HELD.

For two weeks the coroner's jury has
been investigating the mystery OF the
death of Mrs. Bertha Miller, who was kill
ed on Friday night, July %. The history
of the case is familiar to the EAGLE
readers.
Yesterday the jury consisting of j. w.
Vineyard, NJ. H. Bruce j. N. Houston, L.
Lilly, f. c. Dickson and j. w. Alexander,
returned a verdict saying they had ex-
amined twelve witnesses, aud gave it as
their opinion that she had come to her
death by strangulation at the hands of
Frank +. Wilson, who is now in Jail and
will be held to await the action of the
grand jury. No attention was paid to the
testimony of the woman Alice Jeffries,
who is posing as female detective and
trying to obtain a confession from Wilson
She was not even mentioned as one of the
witnesses examined.
In justice to Under Sheriff Brown it is
but fair to say that he gave no informa-
ton TO an evening paper yesterday.

Roused;from Inaction,

The precursor of their disease and destruction,
the kidneys and bladder healthfuIly stimu-
lated and toned with Hostetter's s. )mach
Bitters, actively resume their functions. Thus
Brights disease, diabetes, catarrh of the
bladder and eneuresis are prevented. For irrl-
tating diuretics, and those unmedicated and
fiery stimulants which, used even in modera-
ton, excite both the renal and vesical organs,
this is the best possible substitute. 1t is of
botanic composition, and so coDgenal to the
stomach, the digestive processes of which it
helps in no ordinary degree, that it is prompt
ly assimilated by the system, and its tonic
effects are speedily felt. Not only does it
remedy inactivity of the kidneys, but renews
a regular habit of body, promotes due secre-
ton and healthy flow of bile into the proper
channels, and cxpels from the circulation acrId
principles productive of rheumatism and
govt. 1t is also the leading specific for mala-
rial cOmnlaints.

The Emperor's Condition.

BERLIN, April 2O.-Thursday morning
the Emperor Frederick wrote on . slip
Of paper that he felt much better. He
ate fairly good breakfast and wanted
to get up, but the doctors would not let
him rise. The doctors cannot find any
evidences Of lung trouble. The results
of the operation of traoheolomy rem
der it difficult to discover the
symptoms Of lung disease. The in
Permitting fever and quick respiration,
are symptoms strongly In favor of DR..
MsoKenzie's belief, that the emperor is
suffering from pyemia. There is a large
crowd continually watching at the
castle. By the special wish of the en-
peror, the public were permitted to
come to the iron railing Of the first court
yard, where yesterday evening for
the first time, the official
bulletins were posted; the doctors, on
leaving the palace, were eagerly piled
with questions. The Empress Augusta
arrived at the palace at midnight, and
remained at the emperor's bedside for
half an hour. Other members of the
family visited him toward the evening,
when he felt fairly comfortable and read
and walked and slept little. The
doctors had a consultation at
$50 and agreed that the en-
peror was better. The discharge
which occurred yesterday afternOo n,
gave him much relief. The patients
breathing is freer and almost normal.
1t tends, however, to prove that DR..
MackenZie's diagnosis of an abscess in
the trschea was correct. The pro-
gress of pyemia, the symptoms
OF which are very slight, shows
no signs Of increasing. A rumor
that DR.. Bergman yesterday discov-
cred an indication that cancer is FORM
ing, Ia not confirmed. 1t is reported that
preparations for the marriage Of Prince
Henry and Princess Irene, of Hesse, are
to be hurried, and their wedding will
take place in few days.
