Harrison' Ram ox lived for manyyears iu Hinckley, Medina county,Ohio, and amassed considorable prop-erty, most of which was in cash. Hewould not trust his money to thekeeping of a bank, but hid it about hisown premises, keeping the hidingplace secret even from his own fam-

ily. A short time ago he told hiswife that he had bidden about $30,000in money, and that pretty soon hewould inform her of its whereabouts,so that in case of his death she wouldknow where to look for it. He neg-

lected to do this, and about a weekafter he died of apoplexy. After hits

death an examination of his papersshowed that he had 1335,000 in moneyall hidden about his premises. Themost thorough search failed to revealthe hiding place, and the widow beganto despair. Then she was impressedwith the notion that if she prayedwith faith the Lord would direct herto the place where the mouey wasbidden. On Wednesday she prayedall day and night. On Thursdaynight she was impelled to go to thebeehives, which stood on a benchnear the house, and in ths excitementof expectation she knocked over oneof the hives, disclosing to her viewthe top of a bench with a pile ofgreenbacks of large denominationupon it. A search under the otherhives resulted iu finding a total of$15,000. In the afternoon one of thefamily dropped a bunch of keysthrough the barn floor, which necessi-tated taking up a plank to find them,and when the young man put hishand down he struck a half gallonfruit jar, which be pulled out to findpartly filled with $20 gold pieces.Other jars and a grain bag were alsofound containing gold and silver, andwhen it had all been counted the totalamount figured up over $213,000. Thewidow was overjoyed, and in herstatement to the correspondent saidshe believed that the discoveries werein direct answer to her prayers.

Last evening I dinedwith the New England society ofBrooklyn and the hearty welcomo ex-

tended me, so completely bereft me ofthanks to the expressions of pleasurethat this fresh draft on my powerfinds me utterly bankrupt.

Re-

ferring to the navy, he spoke stronglyof what he termed "complete restora-tion," with doing away with allancieut ships and smooth-bor- e guuHand substituting steel ships and highpower cannon, of which we have notone single specimen to show. Chand-

ler, iu the course of his remark, spokeiu praise of the steamers of the Amer-ican Steamship Company, as beingthe only line of foreign steamers fly-

ing tho Amorican flag, whereuponShortridgc, director of the AmericanSteamship Company arose and saidthe company were negotiating for thesale of its ships, as it could not bemade to pay while ruu under theAmerican flag, but could be under theensign of Great Britain. This state-

ment was not received with applause.

SPECIAL ATTENTION GIVEN TO DISEASES OF

THE THROAT AND LUNGS, CATARRH KIDNEY

AND BLADDER, AND WELL AS ALL CHRONIC AND NER-VOUS DISEASES,.

DR. FISHBLATTHas discovered the greatest cure in the world for weakness of the back and limbsinvoluntary discharges, impotency, general debility, nervousness, languor, confus-ion of ideas, palpitation f the heart, timidity, trembling, dimness of sight or giddi-ness, diseases of the head, throat, nose or skin, atlections of the liver, lun.s, stom-ach or bowels those terrible disorders arising from solitary habits of vo'iith. andsecret practices more fatal to the victims than the sons,'. ot Syrens to the mariners ofUlysses, blighting their most radiant hopes or anticipations, rendering marriageimpossible.

Those that are suffering from the evil practices, which destroy their mental andphysical systems causing

NERVOUS DEBILITY,the symptoms of which are a dull, distressed mind, which untits them from perform-ing their business and social duties, makes happy marriage impossible, distressesthe action of the heart, causing flushes of heat, depression of spirits, evil forebod-ings, cowardice, fears, dreams, restless nights, dizziness, forgetfulne.ss, unnaturaldischarges, pain in the back and hips, short breathing, melancholy, tire easily ofcompany and have preference to be alone, feeling as tired in the morning as when-retiring- ,

seminal weakness, lost manhood, white bone deposit in the urine, nervous-ness, confusion of thought, trembling, watery and weak eyes, dyspepsia, constipa-tion, paleness, pain and weakness in the limbs, etc., should' consult me immediatelyand be restored to perfect health.

YOUNG MENWho baye become victims of solitary vice, that dreadful and destructive habitwhich annually sweeps to an untimely grave thousands of young men of exaltedtalent and brilliant intellect who might otherwise entrance listening se nators withthe thunders of their eloquence or wake to testacy the living lyre, may call withfull conldence.

MARRIAGE.Married persons or young men contemplating marriage be. aware of physical

weakness, loss of procreative power, impotency, or any other disqualification speed-ily relieved. He who places himself under the care of Dr. Fishblatt may religiouslyconfide in his honor as a gentleman, and confidently rely upon his skill as apnysician.

ORGANALImmediately cured and full vigor restored. This distressing affliction which ren-ders life a burden, and marriage impossible, is the penalty paid by the victim forimproper indulgence. Young people are apt to commit excesses from not beingaware of the dreadful consequences that may ensue. Now who that understandthis subject will deny that procreation is lost sooner by those falling into improperhabits than by prudent? Besides being deprived of the pleasure of hcalthv off-springs, the most serious and destructive symptoms of both mind and body arise.The system becomes deranged, the physical and mental functions weaken. Loss ofprocreative powers, nervous irritability, dyspepsia, palpitation of the heart, indi-gestion, constitutional debility, wasting of the frame, cough, consumption aud death.

A CURE WARRANTED.Persons ruined in health by unlearned pretenders who keep them trilling mouth

after month taking poisonous and injurious compounds, should apply immediately.

DR. FISnBLATTGraduate of one.of the most eminent colleges of the United States, has effected someof the most astonishing cures that were ever known; many troubled with ringing inthe ears and head when asleep, great nervousness, being alarmed at certain sounds,with frequent blushing, attended sometimes with derangement of the mind werecured immediately.

TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.9

Dr. F. addresses all those who have injured themselves by improper indulgenceand solitary habits which ruin both mind and body, unfitting them for business,study, society or marriage.

These are some of the sad, melancholy effects produced by the early habits o fyouth, viz: Weakness of the back and limbs, pains in the head and dimness ofsight, loss of muscular power, palpitation of the heart, dyspepsia, nervous irritabil-ity, derangement of digestive functions, debility, consumption, etc.
