Joe Person. Dear Madam: I commenced last Ja"n wry to use your Bitters aod Wash on our little daughter An nie. aged twelve years, for Scrofula, with a tendency to White Swelling, the- pbyaician said. ,:.At. the timel comtaenwd nlng your Bemedy she was very liuch reduced in flesh, com pletion sallow, appetite poor, HtXiba very much twallen, bones enlarged, with two frightful sores on her left leg near the an kle. After UBhag the Remedy a week or two I could see a change, as I then thought.for the worse. The sorea dischar ged copiously a yellow corruption, some times runsing In a stream! to tbe floor in pite of the linens. But freling encoura ged by your letters I persevered and after uslogthe Remedy a whilo longer her strength was greatly improved, her appe tite good and complexion mveh improved. Those symptoms encouraged me, but the flow of corruption continued for several months, and not until her general health was greatly Improved did the isores begin to he.il. First the swelling began to de crjane below the knee, and continued grad ally downward, and when it nearly reach ed the sores they began to heal. In the meantime the leg from tbe ankle half way to the knee became covered with run ning pimples, in fact tbe leg had become almost a solid sore. After this the sores healed rapidly. The worst one, on tbe in. tep, healed entirely, the other to the size of a fie cent piece, audit has remained in that condition ever since, which has been several months ago. For a month ci more it has not discharged at all, and looks sometimes now as if it was entirely well. As a Blood Purifier and. Tcnic I think it superior to anything J ever tried. If you could have seen my daughter when ahe commenced using your Hemedy, and now, you would hardly believe her' to be the same child , Last January Dearly very one thought she would die. Then she was a living skeleton, now ehe ia fat and rosy. Her case was aa interestio" study from the time she commenced your Remedy, I can most hear tily and cheer- fully recommend it to be what you claim for it. Wishing you every success with your undertaking, and with many thanks for the benefits we have received from your medicine, I am, very respectfully, MRS. R. J. ALLEN.

No wonder she is in love with Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup, the great remedy for coughs and colds, for what would she do without it, if she should be attacked suddenly by hoarse ness? A Might Fire. r There was an alarm of fire this fore noon, about 11 o'clock, just when the wind was howling around at almost its fiercest and there wa3 considerable trep idation felt as to tbe result. The alarm came from a frame dwelling on the cor ner of Wooster and STifth streets, known as the Stokely house, and occupied by a family of white persons whose name wo did not learn. At the first alarm, Mr. Ed. S. Griffith, who was fortunately not far off, rushed to the scene and in a twinkling was on the roof, where the fire had caught from a spark. He was soon joiaed by Mr. Isaac W. King and others and a few bucket of water suppiessed the flames. The only damage was a hole about as biz as a flour barrel in the roof of the building. 1 To Builders and others Go to Jaco bi's for Sash, Blinds and Doors, Glass, &c You can get- all sizes and at the lowest prices. t Proposed Dnpiln and Omtovr R. R The proposition to build a railroad, starting from the line of the Wilming ton & Weldon Railroad, at Teachey's, in 1 Duplin county, to some point on New river, in Onslow county, has been mooted for a considerable time, and recently it has been discussed with a yiew to speedy action in the matter. Col. R. R. Bridgers, President of the Wil mington & Weldon Road, has been con suited on the subject, in order to ascer tain the amount of encouragement and assistance the proposed route would re- ceive from his co-operation. It is under stood that he is willing to entertain propositions such as those made by tEe Scotland! Neck Railroad, now nearly completed. In that arrangement the citizens in that section interested in the scheme, secured the right of way,?graded and cross-tied the road bed and, when all was completed, transferred the prop erty to tlie Wilmington & Weldon Railroad, the latter agreeing to put down the rails and run the trains. It has been supposed by some that the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad Com. pany was to issue stock or bonds to the Scotland Neck Company, but such is not the fact; the former became the sole and exclusive owner of the latter as soon as it was graded and cross-tied. This has all been, done, and all the track has been laid with the exception of about six miles. As before stated, there is a probable certainty" that Col.Bndgers will enter, tain and favorably consider similar prop ositions from the Duplin and Onslow Company, and that being the fact, it re mains for the latter to determine whether the road shall be built or not. We suppose that a similar proposition made to Col. Bridgers by the projectors of the Burgaw k Onslow R. R., which was strenuously advocated two years ago and for which a charter was obtained from the Legislature, would be itst as favor ably entertained. If anything is to be done at all by the friends of this enter prise they should be np aad doing. The owner of the Walnut Btreet Liv ery Stables, Lancaster, Pa., is Mr. Issac Powell, who writes: My mother used St. Jacobs Oil for a bad swelling, which doctors pronounced rheumatism and dropsy combined. Although so ill that she could hardly walk, .after the use of St. Jacobs Oil ehe went about with ease I also used St. Jacobs Oil on a horse that was Isadly galled; it removed the soreness and healed mora rapidly than any preparation I tyer saw t. , RAILROAD ! The Point Caswell and Clinton R. R A Larze leathering at .Lisbon Last Saturday. A very large and enthusiastic mec ting was held at Lisbon,- in Sampson county,! on Saturday .last; in the interest of the ! proposed Point Caswell & Clinton R. R. j The speakers were Hon. A. A. McKoy, ! Mr. D. T. O'Hanlon, of Fayetteville, Mr. B. W, Kerr, of Sampsou, and Capt. R. P.Padduron. of Point Caswell. It was decidedly the most interesting meet ing yet held in favor of this object and gave great encouragement to the friends of the proposed road. The speakers were very happy and felicitous ia their remarks. J udge McKoy enumerated the advan tages that would result to the people all along the route and especially to those of Sampson county by the construction of this road. He said that if the people of Sampson county should so determine they could themselves construct; this road. Ho kne w of over $200,000 which was at that moment lying idle in the hands of residents of the county and there was perhaps much more of which he did not know. ; Mr. O'Hanlon gave the warmest en dorsement to the scheme. He estima ted that a narrow gauge road could be built for 95,000 a raile through such a level country and he felt satisfied that $225,000 will build and equip the 40 miles of road between Point Caswell and Clinton, He urged a united , effort on the part of the people, confident that this is all that is needed to ensure suc cess. Mr. E. W. Kerr commended the en terprise most warmly.' He spoke of the needs and necessities of the good people of Sampson eounty for a com munication by rail with the outside world; of the wonderful wealth and fertil ity of resources fer which the old county is famous and of the determination of the people to have a railroad connection in some direction. He believed that the people of Sampson would prefer this out let. Wilmington was naturally their fint choice for 1 a market. He was a warm friend and advocate of the propos ed road to Point Caswell and believed that it would be built. Indeed, he felt sure that its construction was a fixed fact. 1 1 j Capt. Paddison made a plain, practi cal, business-like talk. He pointed out briefly and concisely the many advan tages to he gained by the construction of the road, gave estimates as to its probable cost, explained the exact route through which it is proposed to carry it and called upon those who were inter ested in1 the enterprise and through whose country it would pass to give it practical aid in the way of subscription to the stock. He thought that the pros pects for success were at this j time very brightbrighter than they had been at any time yet and he -now felt sanguine of success. The meeting was very : harmonious and yery enthusiastic and the speakers were all greeted with loud and earnest jap, plause. The prospects ot the road are, indeed, yery bright at this time, and we hope' to hear soon that the stock has all been subscribed and that the construe tion of the road is an assured fact. A charter will be applied , for at the next session of the Legislature. , j The Gale- 1 The gale from the Southwest, which commenced at an early hour last evening and continued through the night, reach ed its maximum velocity at 10 , o'clock this forenoon when it blew here at the rate of 40 miles per hour. This velocity was maintained uatil 10.30 a. m. (a half hour) when there was a manifest de crease. There has been no damage to the shiDmnxr in port, so far as we could learn.' - j At Smithville, as we learn , through the courtesy of the Signal Service ofS cials.the gale was comparatively light,the maximum velocity of the wind being oa- ly 23 miles per hour. j t The gale has equal force on the Florida coast that it baa here. There is an in terruption in the working of the tele graphic lines north of Fort Macon, hich was tiused by the gale, which blew with force in tht locality yesterday. The wind will probably shift to north west this evening, with lew velocity aid a decided fall la the tesperatars. Another Suppression. Another fire was. checked in the bud this afternoon. At about 12:15 fire was discovered in a bale of1 cotton on Messrs. Hall & Pearsail's wharf, between Mar ket and Dock streets. No general alarm was sent out and those who were near at hand rushed to the ?pot and soon succeeded in suppressing the flames. It is thought that the fire caught from a spark, from a pipe or a cigar. , I'nmaUable ' i Unmailable matter, addressed as fol lows, remains in the Pofttoffice , in this eity: : . - - Miss L. G.
