which has been tried in a great

known to fail, it having cured in
every instance, lie win furnish a
free sample to any one who will ap

fair trial and report results. In the
interest of the farmer we ask that
our exchanges mention this through
their columns, as if it is what it is
claimed to be it will certainly prove
a blessing to the Southern farmers,
many of whom, we hear, do not try
to raise hogs now, for fear of the
cholera,but keep their smoke houses
in Cincinnati and Chicago. The
new remedy will be known as "For-

Fatal Results of a Querrel.
John Weston, a sailor hailing from
Glasgow, Scotland! died at the hos-
pital yesterday, it is thought from
injuries receiyed in a difficulty on
Saturday, the 22d inst, with Charles
D. Wessell, the proprietor of a gro
cery and liquor store at the corner
of Mulberry andNorth Water streets.
it is said that Weston tooK up a
small lamp to throw at Wessell and
tnat tne latter strucK vvestou on
the head;'witl) a hatchet," inflicting
injuries which have resulted in his
death. Weston was removed to the
hospital and the affair was somehow
Kept so quiet tnat the newspapers
did not get hold of it. " Weston, it is
said, made an ante-mortem state
ment incriminating: Wessell, who
was arrested and placed in jail to
await the action of the Coroner's
iury.. This jury had not reported
up to the hour of our going to press
and now presumably await the re
sult of a post mortem examination by
physicians, which has been progress
to-day.
Thatcher, Primrose & West.
As we have previously stated,
Thatcher, Primrose & West will hold
the boards at the. Opera House on
Wednesday night. Everybody knows
or ousrht to kno w -that this show
is first-class in every respect. Their
reputation is national. There is no
feature of the entertainment that
can be objected to by the most fas
tidious. The Philadelphia Mercury
says: "' ' '- . "
One of the most popular features
of Thatcher, Primrose & West's
Minstrels at the Grand Opera House
will be the reappearance of the fa
mous ana inunitaoie entertainer,
George Thatcher. Mr. Thatcher's
first minstrel home was at the Arch
Street Theatre, where he himself
was an immense favorite and the
minstrel company: that bore his
name a long-lasting attraction. In
the amusement year in Philadel
phia there is no one whose return is
more heartily welcome than George
Thatcher, who, with Primrose and
West, has the greatest minstrel
company that has ever been organ
ized'in America. It will prove a
highly '. popular and varied attrac
tion at the Grand Opera this week.
The company numbers over sixty
performers, and everything is new
this season. The company carries
new scenery, new costumes and a
budget of new jokes. A novel fea
ture of this season is the Shakes -pearean
"first part," in which all
he members of the company are
richly and correctly attired to - rep
resent leading characters of Shakes
pearean drama.

Laid to Rest.
The remains of the lamented Capt.
George Sloan werelaid away to rest
yesterday afternoon in ! Oakdale
Cemetery. The funeral took place
from the First Baptist Church, Rev.
Dr,Pritchard officiating. The pall
bearers were Messrs.' Geo. W. Wil
liams, Jno. D. Woody, Owen Fen
nell, Wm. Larkins, J. W. Monroe,
Josiah Merritt, H. M. Bishop and
.las. H. Taylor. - .
While Walking on the Track. -
A colored man by the name of
John Smith, about 21 years of age,
who is employed on one of Mr.
Gause's lighters, was walking on the
freight track near the ice factory
this forenoon, when he was struck
by an engine and knocked off. His
head hit the corner of a crosstie as
he fell and a pfetty severe contusion
is the result. He was sent to the
Hospital where he is now under
treatment. -
The SeacoastR.K.
At a meeting of the Board of Di
rectors of the Wilmington Seacoast
R. R., held last Saturday, Mr. Wni.
dered his resignation, which at his
earnest request was accepted. Col.
Ed. S. Latimer was thereupon ap
pointed to the vaconcy.
Mr. Latimer has made an excel
lent official and' his retirement will
be learned of with regret. He stated,
in tendering his resignation, that
the road had passed through the
most critical period of its existence;
that he had remained at the helm as
long as he saw doubts and difficul
ties ahead but now that it had sur
mounted all ot these and was in such
an excellent condition, financially
and materially, and on a solid pay.
ing basis, with no longer any doubts
of its success, he thought that in
justice to himself lie should retire
from the presidency and devote
more time to his own private af
fairs.
The Seacoast road is indeed in
I good trim.
It has been managed
rb7
fore it next Summer. It is as pretty
a piece of railroad as there is in the
country and we learn that the Jan
uary coupons on its bonds have all
ready baen ordered paid.
