THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1871. 5 ROT DOITS iy THE BILLS. Xlongh-anrl-Tnmbl. Fight forth Ponei lom .f . I.adjr Promenaderi An Incident occurred at the music In the Presi dent's Ground on Saturday erenlng which was not in the programme. A gentleman wat obserred in the grounds walking with a ladr, when another gentleman tepped up and spoke to the lady, notifying her tha( she must not walk any more with the other man, backing up his mandate with an assertion of his marital relations. The iady refused to comply, expressing a preference for the society of the party to whom she was not married. Whereupon the husband stepped np to the other party and gare htm a tremeadous crack on the head. A lively fight eusued, of a rough-and-tumble character, the partisanship of the lady being decidedly manifested In fav.r of the man who did not claim to be her husband, cry ing at frequent intervals dnrlng the engagement, "Give it to him:" "Pitch into him: he's not rar husband;' and other expressions of active inte rest in the proceedings. The result can bu im agined. The ladies are always on the winning aide, and in a few moments the alleged husband yielded to tne adverse circumstances of the eituation and called for quarter. The victor then tucked mo lady under his arm. and the twain continued their promenade, amid the plaudits of an admiring auditory that had gathered around curing the lray. wash,, ralnot, yesterday. 31 USIOAL AND DRAMATIC.

To correctly form an Idea of the Immense traffic In tropical fruits, one need only take a stroll some pleasant morning along Delaware avenue. There can be seen hundreds of retailers purchasing from the ample supplies of wholesale dealers the luscious fruits. The Italian street-vender, with huge basket, striking a close bargain, the proprietors of our ele gant retail establishments making their selections, and dealers from all parts of the State making pur chases, which meet with ready sale on arrival at their destination. Bananas make their appearance in our market about the 1st of March, and are abundant till the 1st of August the demand being heaviest during the months of April and May. Pineapples commence to arrive early In May, and receipts continue very heavy till the middle of July. From the enterpris ing firm of Messrs. Davis, Warner & Co., No. S3 South Delaware avenue, we obtained much valua ble Information concerning the fruit trade. Com mencing less than three years ago to devote their attention to fruit as a specialty during its season, they have increased their business steadily, and are now . undoubtedly the heaviest dealers in West India fruit in Philadelphia, From New Tork importers they have kept them selves regularly supplied with a choice stock of bananas, their trade In this article alone amounting to upwards of forty thousand dollars the past two months. Some ilea of the trade in cocoanuts can be formed when we state that since the commence ment of the present year this firm have disposed of nearly three hundred thousand (300,000). At the pre sent time they are discharging a cargo of pineapples Imported direct from the Bahamas, and have other vessels loading and en rou. with this now univer sally favorite fruit. This spirit of enterprise is com mendable, and we trust will meet with the success it deserves. C I T Y ITEM S.

A nerlod of twenty years has PROVED THIS to be the case. See remarks made by Benjamin Travers, F. R. C. S. Speaking of those diseases, and diseases arising from the excess of mercury, he states that no reme dy is equal to the Extract of Saissparllla; Its power Is extraordinary, more so than any other drug I am acquainted with. It is, in the strictest sense, a tonic, with this invaluable attribute, that it is ap plicable to a state of the system so sunken and yet so irritable as renders other substances of the tonlo class unavailable or injurious.

HELMBOLD Esteemed Friend: We con gratulate yon on having the handsomest, and, at the same time, the MOST EFFECTIVE PILL that we have ever known for the purpose intended. WM. R. WARNER' CO. LL T. HELMBOLD will remark, In conclusion, that his remedies are the result of long and careful study. The Fluid Extracts have been before the public twenty years; the sale of them in that time proves their value. All have been benefitted by them who followed my Instructions, and to-day they stand UNEQUALLED In the extent of their sale and UNSURPASSED by any Medicament in the Dispen satory of the United States, not excepting a single HERB, ROOT, PLANT, or scientific preparation. Pharmaceutical I claim all mine to be, and have never patented a single one. To dispel any impression or prejudice that might exist in the minds of many against my Preparations from the publicity given through advertising, and that I am and have been a druggist for period of twenty years, and more conclusively to prove this see letter: From the largest Manufacturing Chemists in the World.

The Pill I have thought of offering to the atnicted for ten years. They are now perfect, and I shall stake my time, money, and fame on their effectiveness. The In viting style in which the Pill Itself is made, the bot tie, label, wrapper all show with what care they have been prepared. After examination, no Eng lish 01 French preparation will show greater care, and I am really proud of them. Instead of the nauseous-looking, carelessly-pre pared Pills vended generally and put up in wooden boxes, and made generally or offered by those having no experience as physicians, druggists, or manufacturers of medicines, test the medicine offered by your obedient servant, U.
