We bt.d intended giving in this issne an extern ted uotice of the admirable lec ture deliverc-d by oar esteemed acd gifted to wni ma a before thv Historical, and Scientific Society last evening, upon the Tiocal Traditions of Wilmington," but, btjou reflection, have concluded that oar reader will enjoy a psrnsal of -the satire Pipr much more than any synopsis cf eur own, consequently, wo have therefore tinalllA with tVi n t Vmv'k Mfm!tinn ' , , lay the whole, matter be faro . the readers f the Revtsw, koimencios ;with to m, morrow f at rooufs issue. Te scenes and inctdauts, ome of which were thrill ing indeed, described by the lecturer, were meet graphically depicted and the audience was completely enchained and spell-bound as it were during the recital of many of the incidents of the time long ago. Upon motion of Alex Spruut, aq a resolution of thanks was 'Unanimously voted by the Society to the talented gen tleman for his highly entertaining lecture, and the meeting adjoarned alter the con aideration of a few other unimportant matters with a general feeling of satisfied delight. Orator lor Memorial Day. It affords ns much pleasure te bo able to asnouuee that Major Graham Daves has accepted an invitation from tht Ladies' Memorial Association of Wilmington to deliver the next annual address before that Association on Msmorial Day. The 26th day of April has been selested as the occasion this year for commemora ting the day en which all Southern hearts are bowed in grief and sorrow fcr those who yielded up their lives upon their country's altar. In defence of the priceless boon of constitutional Jiberty. We congratulate the Association upon their selection of an orator. No trmer Ccnfedsrato, no more devoted patriot, and no more therough Carolinian ever drew a sword ia defence of the 'Lost Cause" than Msjer Graham Daves. Of a refined nature, high-toned ia feeling and (chivalrous in ssntlnsnt, Major Dares Is a type of a Korth Cero Una geptleman, and by his reverence for the cause which we all oace loved se well, as well as by his cultured tastes, Major D. is, lwe thiak, peculiarly fifed for the position with which he has been honored by the ladies of the.

Mb Lwtob: Having read in your paper reports of the remarkable cures ef catarrh, I am mdoeed tu ull what I know about catarrh, and I fancy the snuff and Hnhalibg-tube' makers (mere Jollar grabbers) would be, glad if they coaid embUaan a iaiUr cure in the pa pers. For 23 years I afferod with catarrh. The nasal'paasage became coo pletely dosed. SnuiP dost 'ashes, inhaling-tnbea,, and 'atieka, wouldn't work though at interval I weald snuff up tbe so-called catarrh snuff, until I became a valuable tester for such modi- cines. I gradually grew worse, "and no oue can know bow much I suffered or what a miserable being I was. My bead ached over my eyes so thst I' was con fined to my bed for many successive days, suffering the most intense pain, which at oae time lasted continuously (brl68hours. All senses of smell and taste gone, sfght and bearing impaired, body shrunken and weakened, nervous system shattered, and constitution broken, and I waa hawking and spirting sevenelgLih of the time, I prayed for deah to relieve me of my suf fering. A favorable notice in your paper of .Dr. Sage s Catarrh Remedy induced me to purchase a package, and tue it with Dr. Pierce's Nasal Douche, w blch applies the remedy by hydrostatic pres sure, tbe ooly way cctapatible , with oommousense. Well, Mr. Editor, it did not cure me in three foarths of a second, nor in one hour or mouth, but in less' than sight minutes I was relieved, and in three months entirely cured, and aave remained so for over sixteen months. While using the Catarrh Remedy, I used Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Diseovejy to purify my blood and strengthen ray stomach. I also kept my liver active and bowels regular by tbe use of his P!afr.t Purgative Pellets. If my ex perience ill induce other sufferers to seek tne same means of relief, this letter will have answered its purpose. . Yours truly, 8. D. Rmica. WM-MMMBMHBiaHBSSBBBBBBBBSVBBBaBSMaWMMaHa S.
