'Dr. KEYSER IS PREPARED AT ANY TIME TO EX AMINE UINGS, WITHOUT CHARGE, FOR ALL THOSE WHO NEED HIS MEDICINE. . ATTEND TO YOUR COLDS.—A case of fire years stand-, lug cured bv DR. KEYSER’S PECTORAL SYRUP. Pittsburg, Jan. 11th. ISCO. Db. Ketseb: —My wife has been afflicted with a bad cough and difficulty of breathing for Are or six years, which for several years back had gradually increased In violence. The complaint has been hereditary, and she had been treated by several physicians without any relief. In this state of her case I procured some, of. your Pectoral Cough Syrup. I bought the first time a fifty cent bottle, which relieved her very much; I then called and got a dollar bottle, which cured her .entirely, and she has now no trace of the former disease, cxcepi weakness. 1 would olio state that vrbsed the medicine myself ,to a cold and cough. The medicine cured met-hy taking one dose. I ex ureas my entire' satisfaction with the medicine, and you art at liberty to publish this if you desire to do so. ' WM, WILSON, ; Alderman, Firth Ward. Kill] Dr. Ketsrr Although not an advocate of Patent Medi cine In general, it affords me great pleasure to recommend Tout, Pectoral Syrup. As a medicine it is well worthy the attention of any person who may in any manner be affec ted with coughs, colds aud hoarseness of any kind, and for the peculiar qualifications for removing all that disagreea ble sensation attending a cold. . , , 1 have been more or less, in my life affected with the severest colds of hoarseness. At times my throat would become so closed ns to prevent my speaking above n whis per, and by taking a few doses of the above Syrup it would relieve mo entirely. ... In recommending this, medicine, I must unhesitatingly say that it is the best medicine I ever found, purporting to cure the above; nor should any family be without this remedy for diseases so prevalent. Yours, most respectfully, EDWARD J. JONES, ' Cashier, Citizens’ Deposit, Bank. 1 have used Dr. Keyset’s Cough Syrup for a bad cough of several years standing, and can checrfullysay .it Is the best medicine for the same that 1 hate over taken. OOL. PRATT AND DR. KEYSERS PECTORAL SYR VP. DR. KETSEB —Dear Sir: Excuse the delay of my ac knowledging tile excellence of your Pectoral Syrup sooner. I take great pleasure in saying that it Is all you say it is. IT KNOCKED THE NOISE OUT OF MY COUGH, and the worst one I was over afflicted with; I have not used more than one half of the bottle, and can and do wish that II who arc afflicted would give it as fair a trial as 1 have they will be proud to say, “ U is no quack medi cine.” I would not suffer another such an attack for any consideration, or at any cost. I am confident I can breathe more freely than.l ever did. J shall: always acknowledge B deht of gratitude‘for inventing so excellent a remedy.— You are at liberty to use my name In this regard, us you think proper. '*• E. F. PRATT. Messenger, Common Council, Pittsburgh, Vo. Pittsburg, May IUU, 1859. J,'. B.—l am no stranger to my fellow .citizens, and all whs entertain doubts cun consult me personally. E. F. P. READ THE TRUTH—Dn. Kevsep. : I have a daughter who has taken several medicines for a bad cough, who has token several medicines for a bad cough, without benefit— among them Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I purchased from you a bottle of your PECTORAL SYRC-P, and before she had used half a'bottle she was relieved. The second hot tls cored her entirely of her cough A GREAT CURE UY DR. KEYSEU'S PECTORAL SYRUP—I live lu Peebles township. Allegheny county.— I bad a coughing aid spitting, which commenced about the 4th of February last, and continued eight months, I employed the best physicians in the country, nml my cough continued uoabated dntil early in October. At that time 1 was advised.to try your PECTORAL SYRUP,Avhich i after I had taken one bottle I was entirely free from-the coughing and spitting. I had disjoined of ever getting well, and I thlnk it should be known that this valuable remedy will do for others what It j has done in JUT case. JOHN C. LITTLE, Puclricfl township. Witness— B. M. Kebk. Patton township, April 14th, 1857. A* WONDERFUL CURE —Sonic time agp. an old neigh bor W mine was very 111 with a bad cough which every one supposed to be consumption. Ills relatives told, mo lie had taken every remedy they beard of without benefit; lus brother came to see him die, and all were confirmed in the beUefthathe could not live. I had about the third of a bottle of yfiur Pectoral Syrup, which 1 gave him, and it entirely cured him, to the astonishment of oil. What makes the case more remarkable, is the extreme age of the man, he being about eighty years old. I have no doubt the Pectoral taved his life. j JOUN MQINMS. DE.

TXaHS OP APVERTISISO STANZAS. THE NEST. ed by tbeir skulls being found battered in, and tbeir faces so -disfigured with blows, that it was a task of great difficulty to identify them. The account given by the fam ily was very olear, and the testimony of each member of the circle agreed so con sistently, that their evidence was scarcely to be doubted, It appeared, from their statement, that tWo men had taken up their residence In an adjoining barn, and that one of the daughters had carried them their frugal supper the evening be fore. They then seemed well primed with whiskey, and might be supposed to be in possession of still larger supplies of this intoxicating beverage. The general belief of the-family was, therefore, the two poor fellows, having got drunk', fell asleep, and, on waking, walked across the fields to bathe themselves, for the purpose of washing away tbeir debauchj but, unfortunately, not’ being quite sober, they had fallen in, just where the stream was most rapid and deep, and thus fell victims to their intemperance. The wounds on their heads they supposed must have been caused by being dashed against some rocks, past which they had beeh car ried by the stream. The sfory seemed to the local authorr | tics to be somewhat improbable; but, on strict investigation, they found the foot steps-of two men clearly imprinted in sev eral places between the door of the barn and the river, where they again appeared upon the muddy and slippery bank- The whole house was examined over arid over again; but no weapon, no instrument of death, or cause of suspicion, could be dis covered. Forty-eight hours were fruit lessly employed by the local magistrates, the chief constable, and the coroner, in seeking for some evidence; but all in vain. Asia last resource, they wrote to 'Yokes, in Limerick. Of all thisi—beyond the paragraph in the newspaper—l hoard 'nothing till the entrance of the chief constable, who ar rived, bearing the invitation to my intel ligent rotative to attend. “ Well, Mac, as they wish it, I’ll go ; but you may depend upon it, it is as the people say. These fellows got drunk, and slipped into the river. I’ll order my car riage directly, and you ana my relative here can drive over with me.” I began to make excuses. “ Oh, don’t.; be "getting out of it ! If you’ll come along we’ll touch at , and I’ll show you the -finest stud of horses in Ireland. Come, don’t bo fancying that there is any danger, this time 1 I’m onfy going over to see my brother magistrates. By the by, I’4 like to introduce you to some of them-i There is no cause of alarm to any one hefe, is there, Mac?” turning td the police officer. “ None in the world, Major. Sure, if there had beeti anything, we would have discovered it without troubling you.” “ You’re right; but as they ask me, We'll just run] oyer,” and in half an hour morale were 1 cn route. I confess I was not comfortable.' Yokes was far too jovial to ple.ase me, and he laughed at the idea of this murder so loudly, and poohpoohed it so strongly, that I felt he Was not sincere. ' When withfn three miles ' of Killtnal lock, he, as uiual, got out of his carriage, and mounted dn horseback, making my self and his ofpeers do the same. To my surprise, wc found Sergeant M’Grath and six mounted; policemen waiting for'him with his saddle horses. The chief consta ble seemed more „ surprised than myself. If there really;had bpea a murder, a large force ought fO; have bepn called out. If the death arose from accident, surely no policemen wete requisite. The Major, however, madp no remark, and we trotted across the coujitry, followed at a distance by the constables and carriages. I adhe red to my old yule of asking no questions. Presently wb came in sight of the farm house where the murder was committed. It was surrounded by (at least) five thous and persons, % many, of whom seemed strongly excited. I could" not but feel a sensation of terror as I looked upon this lawless body. ■ I believe my countenance must have ? betokened my alarm, for my relative gave m'o a reassuring smile." He then directed jhis sub to join Ihe police men, with direction to bring them round to, the rear of ; the building, arid v jumping off his horse, motioned me'to do the same. I confess I (fid so with reluctance, and when 1 handed the bridle to the boy, who had undertaken to hold the animal, I must needs admit Ij would have williDgly* dis suaded Yokes from entering the crowd, who, as he approached, gave three groans for him —ai welcome they poured forth with all the vbnom of theit souls, for many amongst thepa had reason to dregd his power. .

The Major next interrogated the family. A more intelligent circle I never saw“n» my life. They ga've their evidence - clear ly y and one of the poor, girls burst iutp tears, as she told her story. Shi it . was who had last seen the poor fet* lows, stow lying dead in the adjoining barn. Yokes, idler hearing their account told them he should doubtlessly require their tcstimpny at the assizesin Limerick; ; to this the whole family, consisting of the father, mother, a son, and two . readily assented. . ; He next inspected the bodiekof -thef ' poor men, and, when abrother magistrate' pointed out to him the probability-of iis having been a severe accident, the chief magistrate seemed to assent; f s I now hoped-all was over j but my re-> lativo again turned into the house. After examining again and again the. rooms up stairs, he return edto theapacious kiloheu. Here about U dozen persons wore Ss?em> bled. The room itself bore a look of com fort. There was a good , oloqk*. . ThjO crockery and saUcepans were okan* an v d x ranged along the wall. A gooso sat hatch ing her eggs beside the fire place. ’ A, large house dog, apparently Well fed, before the hearth. It was one'of the' cleanest Irish kitchens, I oyer-was inf Y Yokes suddenly called to a.poUceman “ Pull that goose out of' her nest.—' That's right. Take out the eggs. Afc 1 what is the nest made of?” “ Some linen, Major,” replied the eoq»' stable. . “ Let uff see it, Maloney,” and the next' moment the man held up a large lined' \ sheet saturated blood, dry, but thcfe was no mistakiog-k. j: . .. . “ Seize tne whole family/ Handcuff them, and off with , them to Linropek.~ You may take my carriage, if you Uikedt; M’Grath, jump up stairsf and, in : th‘e : m-' tie room on the right'hand' you will find two hockey sticks. %Fake : cake how .you • handle them, for. there is .blood (dot ted brains upon them that’ muat not W rubbed off of them; and now, Mr; Mar- . tin, I think we have you,” said he tursfrig - to the fanper. ‘‘ No words. 1 off With bieii*’ ' . “ Bvit, Major,” interrupted on.o ; ;p£ local magistrates., Martin is a mine, and a highly respectably man.. .‘Be**' sides, he is—” “ A murderer I” “ You'arc bail himr-r* “ Faith, my dear friend, you.can,*t | apgl, . what’s utore, you shan’t.

No time, yfia to be lost, land even before wo worU well out of sight of them, their frantic ones - showed that they had learned our acts. Oh the' subsequent trial, one t|o sis,tops having turned approver (or as we call jjt,- king’s evidence,) declared thatsbehad not only seen, but assisted in the murder.- Drugged heavily with .whiskey, the un suspecting men had fallen fast asleep,- when the son and two daughters stole.jU with hockey sticks (produced \n opurt)' and battered out tbeir brainsi They theu tied their bodies in a large shcety aSti the father and son carried them to & spot at least a mile down the river, where they threw them in.
