THE CITY Pf)ST.
THURSDAY MORNING
Murder in West Pittsburgh—Arbest or
THE Mubdeber. — A man named Frederick Wolfs
burgher, a German about 45 -years of age, was
killed in West Pittsburgh, yesterday afternoon,
in the following manner:
Joseph Davis, George Couch and the deceased
were walking together on the boardwalk, a short
distance above Jones Ferry, when a quarrel oc
curred between Davis and Wolfsbnrgher. After
a short wordy altercation, Davis shoved Wolfa
bnrgbcr over the side of the walk, - down the
embankment, which wes about thirty-five feet
high. The unfortunate man fell over head fore
most, alighting on a large rook, which split his
skull into a dozen pieces. lls did not live five
minutes after tho occurrence. The deocaecd
was employed by Singer, Hartman & Co., as a
driver, and is represented to have been an inof
fensive man.
After th*> outrage, the two men, Couoh and
Davis, leisurely proceeded to their boarding
house in the village, where they were arrested
by a yonng man named John Conner, a clerk in
Jones* toll house, and brought to the Mayor’s
office inthis city.
The deceased was first conveyed to the Ferry
Toll House, where Esquire Carnahan empannel
led a jury, about ten o'clock last night, to hold
an inquest. The following is the evidence of
the first witness examined :
John Cavett. sworn. — Was standing on the
ferry-boat when, looking up towards the hill,
saw three men—the deceased, Geo Conch and
Joseph Davis standing on the hoard-walk; just
at that moment saw the latter shove deceased;
bo fell over the bank, falling head foremost,
upon a largo rook; remarked to Jo&eph Grounds
that that man was killed; we both then Btarted
to the place where deceased had fallen; saw the
three men ou the bank start off, and I followed
to see if I could recognize them; when I reached
deceased, raised up hia. bead, saw tho blood
coming out, and that tho skull was all smashed.
The hour being late when this witness got
through with his testimony, we were compelled
to.leave without hearing any thing additional.
The body of Wolfsburgcr was taken to tbo
boarding house of Jacob Kuopp, where he resi
ded, but that person refused to let it como into
his boose, and it was only after the most argent
persuasion that he finally took it io. The un
fortunate man was unmarried.
We were informed last night, whilo in South
Pittsburgh, that Davis, a few days ago, stabbed
amaneo badly that he has been lying at the
point of death ever since. If this is true, and
there appears to be no doubt of it, ke is a char
acter that it will be well to rid society of.
A full examination of the case will be had be
fore Mayor Volz to-day.
Aiisoheny County Hobticultubal Society.

The New Postage Law. —A great many per
sons appear to bo in ignorance yet that a new
postage law Las gone into operation, and persist
in placing letters id the Pout Office without pre
paying tbe postage, although none of them arc
forwarded ■ Postmaster Anderson, each morn
ing, posts up in front of the office, a list of the
unpaid loiters deopped in the day previous.
The number is already quite large.. It is an en
tire waste of time and trouble to write letters,
unless tho authors prepay the carriage. .Those
persons who have heretofore disregarded the
laws of courtesy so much as not to pay their
postago iu advance, will now be compcllcdto do
this, or forego writing entirely. Tbo unpaid
letters will bo treated the same as those uncalled
for.

named Gt-orgi 1 E. ClarKe yesterday m?ido infor

fralt IliitOf et'i»*This preparation
Efcttirt to be efficacious for the re ft oration of tbe b tir upon
bald head*. We hare seen the testimony of persons well
known to 05, who haveusad the compound
thereby corroborating the opinion of its restorative oner
tty. We know of nothink more durable jn the wayof per
sonal comeliness ami fccmfort than a’gool head nflui!r,and
any process bv which this crowning ornament of the outer
man can be preserved, or recovered whan lost, without, in
the laiter case, a resort to Wigs, Toupes and ScraM ue, de
serves to he hailed and embraced with gratitude by all of
either sex, who are nnlucky enough to need its benefit.
We took occasion the other day to notice this valuable
compound in the above terms, and now republish what was
then said, to show again our favorable opinion of it.
Tbe foregoing is taken from the Petersburg (Virginia)
Intelligencer, and refers to an article which has for a time
been advertised In our columns. We mast confess that wo
have been somewhat sceptical as to the remarkable effects
attributed to this famous “Hair Restorer.” But our In*
credulity has been greatly shaken within a day or two by
seeing a couple of certificates of well-known and perfectly
credible citizens of the neighboring town of Preston—one
of them tbe Captain of a New London whaling ship—to the
effect that, in each of these cases, a two or three months’
nse of the « Restorer” had actually brought out a new and
vigorous growth of hair upon Ibo head where it wa9 before
bald—the ba’dneas belDg, in one case, of more than twenty
years standing. Wa do not suppose It is by any means err
taiu that, because the application has bten thus successful
In one case, or two, or a dozen, It is therefore certain to
prove equally successful In all. But with such head-strong
evidence as the foregoing, very few bald beads, wo suspect,
would willingly forego a fair trial of tbe “ Restorer.” All
such “old heads” are informed that tbe nrticlo can be had
at Messrs. Lee 4 Osgood’s —Harwich Evening Courier.

The right coarse f»r any one to pursue who may bo af
flicted with Rupture, Is to procure a good Trass well adapted
to tho raptured pa its, in order to retain tho protruding

bowel becomes strangulated, leaving the patient not only
in a suffering but dangerous condition. I have always on

which is MARSH’S RADICAL CURB TRUSS, which will
really produce a radical cure in a short time. Of course
there are cases when no Truss will cure, but in a vast ma

cure. I have every variety of Trusses, from 50 cents to

and unprecedented demand for that Invaluable preparation,
WRIGHT’S PREMIUM KATHARION, has induced envious
persons to palm off other articles similar in name and ap
pearance, but absolutely worthless, whioh has a tendency
to injure tho reputation of the genuine article, purchasers
should be particular to ask lor Wiighft Premium Katha

for its virtues for restoring a decayed heal of hair, for a
cool, refreshing and delightful application daring tbo hot
weather, removing all disagreeable sensations of dizziness
and headache, and for the toilet it has never bad an equul
fur Its pleasant and delightful fragrance.
Its thousands of testimonials are a sufficient Guarantee
for its completely restoring a decayed head of hair; for
moving all dandruff; for preventing its falling off, whe'her
from sickness or disease; and for entirely dispensing with
tbe necessity of using hair dyes, as it excite.* the secretions,
producing a supply of Its natural pigment or coloring mat

EVfcKY STAGE OF RHEUMATISM,
Whether accompanied by that terrible sensibility of the.
parts effected, common in thu'iQflammatory phase—by the
muscular contractions which so often render the victim of
Chrome Rheumatism a helpless cripple, or by the ever*'
changing symptoms which are sometimes the characteristics
of this Protean complaint.
Unlike tbo “Sangrado” practice of bleeding and purging,
which some sapient medicos consider the legitimate mode of
treating Rheumatism, these Pills sostain and cherish the
animal forces, invigorate the constitution, and thus act as
the allies of Nature in her efforts to cost oft the disease.
Their medical action is direct and specific. It reaches the .
maleries'moxibC or ftfdias ,of Mia disorder, through all the
com plications of nerves and fibresin which It is entrenched,
and expels from the blood the febrilo principle which feeds,
and spread?, and Intensities, whilo it spreads the fatal ten*
