From the Columbus Dispatch, Mar.

connected with the death of Hon. b.
h. Bruce, register of the United States
treasury, who died in Washington, ID.
c, on Thursday last. which only fur
ther illustrates the saying, that man
proposes and God disposes. A few
weeks since, Mr. Bruce, who enter
tanned very high regard tor men oi
his race in Ohio, and who desired
to show his appreciation of their ser
vices, invited Mr.. George A. Myers,
Mr.. Jere A Brown and Mr. William
Clifford, of Cleveland, and Mr.. Ralph
w. Tyler, of this city, TO Washington
to attend dinner glven'in their honor
at Mr.. Bruce's residence. In letter
to them he said he proposed TO compel
them to come, and stated that at thai
dinner would be many distinguished
men of the race to do honor TO these
four OhioanS The dinner was to have
been given today, but today instead ot
MIR. Bruce being the host at a dinner,
his body lies cold in death, and the
last sad rites are being said in Wash
Ington over bis remains. His banquei
day became his funeral day instead
and in the place OF being in the list o
guests, Mr.. Tyler was in the list o
pa. bearers.

The theatre going public have been
so often miSled by promises made by
different theatrical organizations as to
the merits of their attractions, that
they have grown to place very little
faith in the promises made so tempt
ingly by the posters displayed. So,
such being the case, an organization
of real merit often suffers for the
shortcomings of some transforming
company. The public in this city are
ever ready &c literally patronize the
tt eatre, but they want value for the
money they invest. They want a per-
formance that has merit and a scenic
production that is artistic, picturesque
and novel. In word, they must have
first-class article or they will stay at
home.
Commencing Monday, Apr. d., at

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
Stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly on the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient health by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
