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.

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.

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, . ,...f ,v-i Tit- what, remains to cure most IAJ1 V LI uaLliivi.i., ' ' cases of Consumption is the tree and perse- vering use oi ocnencis. s ruimumu rn p,iimnnif SvTim nourishes the svs- tern, purifies the blood, and is readily ab- i i i i. .,infiAti o ti A tli Anr- nii- sorueu niiw mo wn,uiunu", r" . , . tho riensed lunsrs.
