"JUST IMAGINE HOW I FELT."
Bkuxswtck, Co., Vs.,
November 5th, 1881.
Mas. Jox Fz&sos,
Franklinton, N. O.
DiabMada: It ia with pleasure
tht 1 write to tell you that your valua
ble Remedy baa entirely cured me of a
most fearful looking and painful sore on
ay ankle. It came more than twelve
months ago, very much like a ringworm.
I painted it with Tinct. Iodine, until it
became a very painful and bad looking
place. Then I commenced to try every
thing I could think or hear of, until it
became so very painful I could scarcely
walk, when I went to the best doctor in
the country for advice. He told me
ke conld core me if I would take my bed
and there remain for four or five weeks,
aid if I did not do so pretty soon, it
conld not be cured at all, as the bone
would become diseased, and my foot
would have to be taken off. Just imag
ine how I felt, to be told there was no
cure for the sore but to lose my foot, or
fire up all business either of these Re
medies would have ruined me. Mind
joutais was the advice of one of the best
doctors in the State of North Carolina,
nd this conversation took place last
February. I continued to burn with
caoktic, as he advised until September,
bnt derived no benefit from bis treatment.
I ai advised then by a friend to try
your Remedy, (Bitters and Wash) took
the first dose the 17th of September, and
I am now a well man, the sore is perfect
ly cured. and I can now walk as far,
dance as much and jump as high as any
win yon know. Put me back to the 1st
f September, let me know as much as 1
now do of the virtue ot your Remedy,
ad I would not hesitate to pay tea dol
lars a bottle for it, if I could not get it
fcrless. I think more of it than any
Bedicico io the world. It is not only
tfce best Remedy to purify the blood and
acre all skinidiseases, but 1 believe it will
car all kinds of blood diseases, and I
tsow it"will cure a love for strong drink.
I hope you will have this published, as
there are many sufferers who could bo
enred, if they could knowcf and get your
Kemedy I am truly and respectfully,

The appointment of Rev. Frank H.
Wood to Front Street church, Wilming

friends throughout the state. As a
preacher Mr. Wood has few equals. We
had the pleasure of hearing him every
Sunday for three years, and if the good
people of Wilmington want good doc-
trine and logical sermons torcioiy deliv
ered they cannot but be pleased with
their pastor, Rev. Frank H. Wood. We
bespeak for him a hearty reception in
this new field.

For the Review
A Startling uenonment
Nkwbebk, Dec 1 A startling ramsr
is in circulation here that Dr. Caned,
who desires to purchase the Cape Fear
& Yadkin Valley Railroad, is an agent
of the Boston Syndicate, and therefore
allied to the interests of Mr. Best.
If there is any truth in this gossip,
Newbern and Morehead City will eventu
ally become the -great outlet for the
foreign trade or Cincinnati ana tne ureai
West, provided, or course, tne juiaiana
N. C. K. R. is completed to some point
where it would tap the C. F. & Y, v .
road of its Western freights.
Yours, ju. A. U.
The "startling announcement" has not
startled us much. V e do not believe
that there is any connection whatever
between Mr. Best and Dr. Canedo.
One represents Bestonians and the other
New Yorkers. We fcelieve mat irr.
Canedo is perfectly sincere in his profes
sions and that he may be relied upon to do
as he says he will do. But as this is a
matter of business Dr. Canede's .ropo-
sition will be scruunizeu very cioaeij
" a W . I
and ample guarantees will be required,
and will no doubt be given, that the
contract as made shall be carried out in
good faith. We think that the interests
of Wilmington and of Fayetteville and
of the Cape Fear A Yadkin Valley R.
R , which are in many things closely al
lied, can be safely left in the hands of
the gentlemen who compose the State
Commission.

Fall From a none.
Rev. S. S. Yarbrough, whose wife, by
a fall from a horse, received a severe
bruiting and a bone broken, and who
used St. Jacobs Oil with splendid effect,
ia a communication upon the subject,
observes: It would have done oee good
to listen to her eulogizing the oil. This
good lady's experience is simply that of
multitudes throughout the country,
whose absolute faith in the eScacy of St.
Jacobs Oil is rewarded by never a dissp
poiatacat. . .
The receipts of cotton at this port to

Nor.' barque A. M. Schweigaard,

Liverpool, with 1,600 bales of cotton,
shipped by Messrs. Williams k Murchi
son. It is said that Coup's Circus, although
it will perform in Sumter early in'Janu
ary, will not stop in Wilmington longer
than will be necessary to change tho
trucks of his cars, and herein Mr. Coup
may make a mistake.

A Prompt Response.
Here is an illustration of the benefits
of advertising. Yesterday a gentleman
in this city advertised in the Revikw for
the recovery ef a strayed cow, and very
soon after the paper was on the streets the
cow walked into the back gate, which
happened to be open at the time, and
took her place as usual in the cow lot.
She remained there until this morning
and was turned out into the street again,
as she didn't happen to be the right cow
after all.
Household Hints,
Apieceof zinc placed on the live
coals in a hot stove will effectually clean
out the stovepipe, the vapors produced
carrying off the soot by chemical decom
position.
If a little vinegar or some cider is mix.
ed with stove polish it will not take much
rubbing to make the stove bright and
the blacking is not likely to fly off in fine
dust.
When patting away the silver tea or
coffee pot which is not used every day
lay a little stick nnder the top; this will
allow fresh air to get in and will prevent
mustiness. It will then be ready for
use at any time, alter being first thor
oughly rinsed with boiling water.
Criminal Court-
The Court- was occupied all of the
forenoon in the trial of the case in which
Hiram Merrick and Sarah Merrick, col"
ored, are the defendants, the former for
the larceny of a gun and $140 in
money, and tne latter tor reaving
the articles, knowing them to have
been stoles. - The case was begun
yesterday and has excited much in
terest. Col. B. R. Moore, the Solic
itor, assisted by-Mr. Frank H, Darby,
appeared for the State and Messrs. Jno.
L. Holmes and Marsden Bellamy for the
defence. The case was given to the jury"
this afternoon, and a verdict of not guilty
as to the latter was returned.
Persons who stand upon their Feet,
whether men or women, are often troubled
with serious pains and weaknesses in the
back, loins and other parts of the body.
It has been proven beyond a doubt, how
ever, that Warner's Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure is a certain preventive of
nese troubles.
Mtaplaced Confidence.
A colored woman by the name of
Diana Alderman, hailing from Fiem-
mington and on her way to Fayetteville,
bought a lot ot goods yesterday, and on
her way to the steamer, the. TVare, she
was accosted by a colored man who offer
ed to take charge of her bundles for her
and see her safely on the boat. She ac
cepted the offer and after some conver
sation loaned the man, at his request,
$1.50, he promising to pay her as soon
as they got to the boat. . . '.-!
He managed to give her the slip, how
ever, and the woman now mourns the
loss of the bundles as well as the money.
She applied to Justice Millis, who issued
a warrant for the rascal's arrest, but he
could not be found. The woman had
two small children with her, who were
taken care of by friends last night.
