An Old-Time Tragedy.
.1 Mystery of Sixteen Years Cleared Up
Murder Will Out.
From the Buffalo Courier.
The people of Tonawanda and of
Grand Island are at present much in
terested in revelations said to have
been made in regard to the commission
of a fearful tragedy which horrified the
community sixteen years ago. There
may be those of our readers who will
call the circumstances to mind, but
doubtless they are few. In the year
1855, in a little settlement known as
Burgholtz, in the town of Wheatfield,
about six miles from Tonawanda,dwelt
a Prussian physician known as Dr.
Stanger, a man of some means and
quite generally known. One morning,
about Thanksgiving time, in the fall of
the year named, a visitor to the house
of the doctor found no one to answer
his call, and entering found the woman
who had been employed as housekeeper
lying dead upon the floor, and upon a
bed the corpse of her daughter, twelve
years of age, both bearing ghastly
wounds which produced their deaths.
The discoverer of this scene of slaughter
immediately alarmed the neighbor
hood, and search was instituted for the
doctor. .
At length his dead body was found
by the roadside more than a mile from
his house,indicating that he had either
been enticed in that direction, or that
fleeing from the murderers he had at
length been overtaken and disposed of.
Some purpose other than robbery must
have influenced the assassins, for none
of the property in the victim's house
was disturbed, even his gold watch re
maining in its accustomed place upon
the wall. A great excitement was cre
ated in the neighborhood, and strenu
ous efforts were made to bring the
guiltv persons to justice,but all availed
nothing, for, although different parties
toward whom suspicion pointed were
taken into custody, nothing could be
proved against them and they were
released. Years passed on, the tragedy
becoming an old-time story, and it
seemed' that the mystery which en
shrouded it was never to be cleared
away. But at last, as we are told, rev
elations have been made tending in
this case to verify the saying that mur
der will out.
The facts in our possession are as re
lated to our reporter, who, in company
with Detective Mitchell, instituted in
quires in relation to the topic which.as
before stated, is now of so great inter
est to those who reside in and near the
vicinity where the Stanger murder was
committed. We cannot vouch for the
entire truthfulness of the statements
we now have to make,but only present
them as they are related. On Grand
Island, at and after the time of the
murder resided with his family one
Christian Forbeck, a man of rather ill
repute, but against whom no suspicion
as to his complicity in the crime was
directed. Later his business afTairs did
not prosper,and atlength,perhaps eight
or nine years ago, he removed to a
western State. Also near La Salhe
lived a man by the name of Wagner.
Of his reputation we have learned but
little. He, too, removed to the A est
some years ago. .
The present report, and which has
renewed the interest in this affair of
the past, is that within the past few
weeks Christian Forbeck has expired,
and that upon his dying bed he made
full confession that he it was, with the
complicity of Wagner, who committed
the triple murder. Wagner, shortly
after he went away from this state,
made his way to Michigan and there
ended his career by performing the
office of the hangman for himself. If
all this be true, it adds a thrilling final
act to the tragedy which sixteen years
ago was so terribly commenced, lhere
are now many who can remember sus
picious circumstances against Forbeck,
which never before appeared to them
in the same light. One of these is re
lated to us by John Hupman, who now
keeps a grocery at the corner of Penn
sylvania and Fifth streets. Four years
after the murder Mr. Hupman, who
then lived in Tonawanda, as then did
also Forbeck, one evening conversed
with him upon subjects of criminal
acts, in the course of which Forbeck
significantly said "if all I have done
were known, I would have been upon
the gallows years ago." Perhaps more
about the murder and its perpetrators
will vet be brought before the world,
and If Forbeck is dead, and has left
such a confession as described, it may
be publish in full detail.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1871.
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
A PROCLAMATION.
The process of the seasons have aain
enabled the husbnrlman to garner ihe
fruits of successful toil. Industry has
been encrally well rewarded. We are
at peace with all nations, and tranquillity,
with few exceptions, prevails at home.
Within the past year we have in the main
been free from ills which elsewhere have
affected our kind. If some of U3 have
had calamities, this should be an occa
sion for sympathy with the sufferers, of
resignation on their part to the will of the
Most High, and of lejoicing to the many
who have been more favored.
I, therefore, recommend that on Thurs
day, the 30th day of November next, the
people meet in their respective places of
worship, and there make the usual annual
acknowledgements to Almighty God for
the blesdins He has conferred upon them
for their merciful exemption from evils,
anfnvokc His protection and kindness
for their less fortunate brethren, whom, in
His wisdom, He has deemed it best to
chastise.
In faith whereof I have hereunto set my
hand, and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington, this
the twenty-eighth day ol October, in the
year of our Lord, one thousand eight hun-
dned and seventy-one, and 01 tue inde

THE CAUSE AND CURE OF CON
SUMPTION. The primary cause of Con
sumption is derangement of the digestive
. . a j - "
organs This derangement produces nes
cient nutrition and assimilation. By assi
milation I mean that process by which the
nutriment of the food is converted into
blood, and thence into the solids of the body.
Persons with digestion thus impaired,
havinc the slightest predisposition to t ul-
monary disease, or if they take cold, wiU be
very liable to have Consumption oi the
Luners in some of its forms ; and I hold that
it will be impossible to cure any case of
Consumption without first restoring a good
... i i v i
digestion and healthy assimilation, xne
very first thing to bo done is to cleanse the
stomach and bowels from all diseased mu
cus and slime, which is clogging these or-
so that they cannot perform their functions,
and then rouse up and restore the liver to a
tiealthv action. For this purpose the surest
and best remedy is Schenck's Mandrake
Pills. These Pills clean the stomach and
bowels of all the dead and morbid slime that
is causing disease and decay in the whole
system. They will clear out the liver of all
diseased bile that has accumulated there,
and rouse it up to a new and healthy action,
by which natural and healthy bile is secre
ted.
The stomach, bowels, and liver are thus
cleansed bv the use of Schenck's Mandrake
Pills : but there remains in the stomach an
excess of acid, the organ is torpid and the
armetite Door. In the bowels the lacteals are
weak, and requi ing strength and support.
It is in condition like this that fechencK's
Seaweed Tonic proves to be the most valua
ble remedy ever discovered. It is alkaline,
and its use will neutralize all excess of acid,
making the stomach sweet and fresh ; it will
e-ive Dermanent tone to this important or
gan, and create a good hearty appetite, and
prepare the system for the first process of a
trood digestion, and ultimately make good,
heaitny, living uiuuu. i,
