Shooting Affray In St. Louis.
In 6t. Louis recently, John C. Heron was
so shockingly stabbed that a fatal result, it
is feared, will ensue from the injuries he has
received. On Sunday afternoon, Heron
and a man named ! John Kinnefi and two
other men whose names are unknown, were
playing at the upigeon" game at the Branch
saloon, when a quarrell arose between the
two former, which led to a feeling of deadly
hatred in the mind of Kinneff against Heron.
The latter left the saloon about half past 6
o'clock, accompanied by a man named Den
nis O'Brien. They were followed at a dis
tance by Kinneff and a man named Patrick
O'Brien They went to a stable near Mrs.
Kate O'Brien's boarding' house, where He
ron boarded, . and afterwards went into a
neighboring house. When they came out,
Dennis O'Brien stood on the sidewalk and
Heron went into Mrs. O'Brien's. After a
time, O'Brien heard a noise, and on going
to see what was the matter, found Kinneff
and Patrick O'Brien quarrellnig with,He
'' ms ' a . '; " . 1 - ' ,
ton. ine latter enaeavorea to get away
from them, and Tan into the kitchen, but
they pursued him and the assault began.
Heron 'was knocked on a bed in the room,
and, although nearly all the stabbing ook
place there, the parties present cannot say
whether any wounds were inflicted -upon
him while on the bed. - It is probable, how
ever, that he was stabbed while in this help
less position. He was thrown from the bed
into the -corner of , the room, where he was
stabbed many times. By some means he
managed to get into the next room; or was
dragged in by his assailants who did not
cease to attack him. In addition to Dennis
O'Brien, Mrs. O'Brien and a daughter were
present, and endeavored to sa.ve Heron. An
effort was made by them to push hira out

Dr. J. J. Lawrence Dear Sir : Please send
meIrnmediately per Express to 'Tarboro', two
dozen more bottles of your Bosadalis. I have
carefully examined its Formula, and have used it
in my practice in a number of cases. I am well
pleased with it. I think it, beyond doubt, the
best Alterative I ever nsed. . I have tried it in
several cases of Scrofula and Scrofulous affec
tions, &c, with much satisfaction to myself and
patients. I have also used it in Secondary and
Tertiary Syphilis,' one a terrible case of eight
years' standing, in which it acted with surprising
and satisfactory effect making a quick and tho
rough cure.v " 1 have, therefore, no hesitation in
recommending it' to Physicians and others, as the
most reliable Alterative now known. '
. Respectfully yours, &c,

HOME. CKRTiyiCATK.
I hereby certify. that last September I was at
tacked with White Swelling of the left knee
and also with an enlargement of the glands of
the neck one tumor reached a large size. The
swelling of the knee was enormous, and was at
tended with the most excruciating pains. I was
so reduced that I was confined to my room over
three months. My leg was so completely drawn
up that I could not bend it all. I tried various
remedies, and they failed to give me any relief.
I was in this condition when I commenced taking
Dr. Lawrence's Bosadalis. The swelling in the
knee and neck began to subside before I took all
of. the first bottle. By the time I took the second
bottle, the swelling of the neck entirely disap
peared, and that of the knee nearly so. After
taking three bottles I found myself completely
well able to walk as well as 'ever, &c

I hereby certify that, during the summer and
fall of 1866 I was severely afflicted with Carbun
cles having had as many as fourteen large Car
buncles, and twelve ordinary Boils. I suffered so
much from them that I could not get out of the
house half the time for several months. Being
induced to try Dr. Lawrence's Rosadalis, I was
entirely cured by the use of one bottle of - that
truly valuable medicine.

Dear Dr. Lawrence : Mr daughter having
been cured of a deeply seated disease of the lungs
by your Rosadalis, I feel it my duty to make
the fact known to yon for the benefit of others.
She suffered nearly two years with a hard cough,
which troubled her day and night; at last the
emaciated form, glassy eye, night sweats, together
with the cough, told too plainly that it was Con
sumption, beyond question, eating at her vitals.
Our Physician's remedies brought no relief, bhe
was advised to try your Rosadalis; as a tonic
which she did imagine my surprise and gratifi
cation, when I found her appetite returning.
Slowly she regained her strength, her cough and
night sweats gradually ceased, and she is now;

SALT RHEUM CURED 1 . REMARKABLE CURE ! I
Dr. Lawrence, Wilson, N. C:
My Dear Sir For the last ten years, until
recently, I suffered with an inveterate eruption of
the skin called by Physicians Salt Rheum,"
with which I suffered terribly; the pain and itch
ing was almost intolerable. I tried several of the
best Physicians, in Europe and this country have
visited several celebrated springs spent thousands
of dollars, and failed to get any better. In De
cember, 1866, being in Charleston, b. C, I was
told by a gentleman at the hotel that neiad been
cured of a bad tetter by a medicine called "Rosa
dalis.'' I resolved to "try it, without any hope
though of its doing me any good. I procured a
bottle of Messrs. King & Cassidey, and com
menced taking it. Finding, to my surprise, that
I was improving, I bought four other bottles ; bnt
before commencing on the last two, I found I was
completely well the disease having entirely dis
appeared-
Enclosed find One Hundred Dollars, which
please accept as a token of my gratitude. Why
do you not make your invaluable Rosadalis widely
known? : - Your sincere friend,
