Tub Fobqbry Case.—We mentioned the ar
rest, a few days ago, of a Mr. J. D. Wilson, on
a oharge of forgery. Yesterday, the accused
was brought into the Court of Quarter Sessions
and arraigned on two indiotments for forging
the names of Graff, Reisinger & Graff, to a
check for $6 60,®a the Merchants' and Manu
facturers* Bank, of this city, and ono on the
Citizens* Deposit Bank for $2O. After a jury
was sworn, prosecutingattorncy Roberts said
that the defendant was an old man t who had al
ways borne an irreproachable character previous
to this transaction, and as confidential clerk in
the house of Graff, Reisinger & Graff be had
been in the habit of giviDg ouch chocks. A
short time ago he was discharged from their em
ploy on account of his use of intoxicating liquor,
and it was supposed that in a fit of aberration of
mind, induced by this indulgence, he had forged
the names of bis former employers. The firm
deolined prosecuting, and of course the Common
wealth could not make out a case. After these
remarks, Judge M’Clure charged the jury very
favorably for the defendant, and without leaving
tho box a verdict of not guilty was rendered.
DumiiEßT Destroyed by Firh.—The Recti
fying Distillery of Robert Stinson, on Diamond
alley, between Wood street and the Diamond,
waa almost entirely destroyed by fire yesterday
afternoon, between fonr and five o’clook. A
eouplc of workmen were engaged in hoi. ting a
barrel of whisky to one of the upper stories,
when, through carelessness on their part, the
iron cams wuich supported the barrel came off;
the barrel fell to the floor below, bursted, and
the flaid splashing into a stove, 0c whole room
was Dimoat instantly in a l>l«ze. The flames
quickly spread upward, and although the firemen
were on the ground early, the interior of tbo
building was completely destroyed. Tho loss is
estimated at übuut $4OOO, ou which there is an
insurance of $lOOO in the Delaware Mutual, and
$lOOO iu the Citizen's Two other houses ad
joining the Distillery—one occupied ns a Lager
Beer tlall, the other the shoe store of Mr. T.
Rose—Were considerably damaged by water.
Mr. Rose will lose $3OO or $4OO. No insurance.
Larceny or Bag. —A gentleman
named Thomas M’Cardle made information yes
terday, before Mayor Adams, against a back
driver, named Bernard M’Cbeeney, for the lar
ceny of a carpet bag. The gentleman stated
that he arrived in tho oity on Tuesday evening
from the E-»at, on his way to Chicago, and en
gaged M’Cbeeney to take his baggage over to
the O. &P. Railroad depot. When he arrived
there, a carpet bag containing a quantity of
clothing was missiug. M’Chesuey was arretted,
and on examination before the Mayor, denied
that he had received a carpet bag from Mr. M’-
Cardie; but the proof was conclusive against
him, and ho finally offered to give it up if the
gentleman would withdraw bis suit. Thiß. how
ever, was refused, and he was held in s2po bail
to answer the charge.
District Court. —Before Hon. H. W. Wil
ii&ms.
In the caeo of M’Kee vs John Taggart, the
jury returned a verdict for dtfeudant.
John M’Clowry vs. C. B. Scully, administrator
of William Croghan, deceased. Duulevy and
Stanton for plaintiff; Hamilton and Hays for
defendant. Action for non-performance of a
contract. Damages claimed in $l,OOO. No ver
dict.
Wm. Larimer, jr. vs. Joseph Major aad David
Qreer, owners of steamboat Savannah. * Action
on a promissary note of $3OO. The note was
given by the Captain of the boat, Dennison, for
money advanced by plaintiff, to pay charges on
the boat. The defendants allege that the Cap.
tain had no right to give such noto. On trial.
Most people aro aware of the immense popu
larity attained by the far famed “ Banner Hat
Store.” Wo were led, in our rambles, to inquire
into the reason of Alf.'s success, aud found, as
follows: he attends to bis business.; has all bis
bats made under his own supervision ; buys and
sells for cash; keeps bis store clean and tasty ;
advertises literally to let people know where to
find him; and, above all, pays the printer. If
these reasons don’t deseive success, what does?
We advise citizens and strangers not to forget
the “ Banner Hat Store”—sign of the American
flag, 147 Wood street —straight across from the
church, if they want a good bat. *
Man Drowned. —Yesterday moaning, about
fonr o’clock, as the steamer Clara Fisher was
passing under the Freeport Aqueduct, a deck
hand named Samnel Hunter, who was standing
on tbo forward guard, was seen to fall overboard
The boat was etopped, and every effort made to
rescue the unfortunate man, but as be was not
seen afterwards, it is supposed be was imme
diately drowned. lie leaves a wife and large
family, wbo reside in Tarentum.

has recently administered the right of confirma
tion to one hundred and twenty five persons in
this city and vicinity, as follows:—In 8t James’
church, 18; church of the Epiphany.,';l7; St.

Ferry, was unable to reach her QBuai landing,
and was compelled to land her passengers a con*
sidcrable distance further up the river. The
Steamboats along the wharf were blown about
as if a veritable hurricane was raging, and for
a short time fears were entertained that serious
damage would be done.

Hair Restorer.— This preparation ;
goemv to bo efficacious for the restoration of the hair upon j
bald heads. We bavaseen the testimony of persons well -
known to us, who have used the compound successfully ;
thereby corroborating the opinion of its restorative oner ;
gy.' We know of nothin? more desirable |o thewayof p«K
sonnl comeliness and comfort than a'gool head of hair,and j
any process by which this crowning ornament of the outer t
man can be preserved, or recovered when lost, without, in l
the latter cape, a resort to Wigs, Toupes and Scratches, de- ,
serves to be hailed and embraced with gratitude by oil of j
either sex. who are unlucky enough to need its benefit.
We took occasion the other day to notice thlavaloablo 1
compound in the above terms, and now republish what was ;
then sold, to show g-iia our favorable ojnnion of it.
The foregoing is taken from the Petersburg (Virginia)
Intelligencer, and refers to an article which has for a lima
been advertised in our columns. We must confess that we
have been somewhat sceptics' as to the remarkable effects
attributed to this famous “ITair Restorer.” But our in
credulity has been greatly shaken within a day or two by
seeing a co-.iple of certificates of well-known and perfectly
credible citizens of the neighboring town of Preston—one
of them the Cap‘ain of a New Londin whaliug ship—to the
effect that, in each of these cases, a two or three months’
uso of tbo “ Restore:” had actually brought o-. t a new and
vigorous growth of hair upon the heud whare it was before
bald —the baldness being, in one ense, of more than twenty
years standing. do not suppose it is by anyineanscer
tain that, because the application has been thus successful
in one case, or two, or a doz»n, it is therefore certain to
prove equally successful in* 11. But with such head-strong
evidence an th« foregoing, very few bald heads, wo suspect,
would willingly forego a fair trial of tbo u Restorer.*’ All
such ‘-old beads’’ are informed tb&i tbo iirtii.-bi can he bud
at Messrs. Lee k Osgood’s —yorici h Evening Courier.

Proclamation— Whereas, tho extraordinary
and unprecedented demand for that invaluable preparation,
WRIGHT’S PREMIUM KATHAiUON, bus induced envious
persons to palm off other articles similar in name and ap
pearance, but absolutely worthless, which baa a tendency
to injure the roputation of the genuine article, purchasers
should be particular to ask for WrvjhCs Premium Eatba
rioD, and they may rely on receiving an article unequalled
for its virtues for restoring a decayed head of hair, for a
cool, refreshing and delightful application during tho hot
weather, removing all disagreeable sensations of dizziness
and headache, and for the toilet it has never hod au equal
for its pleasant and delightful fragTance.
Us thousands of testimonials are a sufficient guarantee
for its completely restoring a decayed head of hair; for re
moving all dandruff; for 3>re-n>nting its falUDg off, whether
from sickness or disease; and for entirely dispensing with
tin- necessity of using hair dyes, as it excites the secretions,
prolucing a supply of its natural pigment or coloring mat
ter, giving tho hair a dark, glossy appearanco, with a luxu
riant growth.

FEVER and ague cure,
HATUEE’S INFALLIBLE SPECIFIC,
TT'ORthe Prevention and Cure of and Ils-
A- mittent Fevers, Fever and Agoe, Chills and Fxvia,
Dumb Ague, General Dep.tlixy, Niout Sweats, all other
f»rms of diseaeo which have a common origin In-Malaria or
Miasma. Tbi3 subtle atmospheric poison which at certain
seasons is unavoidably inhaled at every breath, is the seme
in character wherever it exists—North, South, East or
West—and will every where yield to this newly-discovered
antidote, which Is claimed to be the greatest discovery in
medicine ever made.
This specific is so harmless that it may be taken by per
sons of every age, sex or condition, end it will not substi
tute for one disease others still worse, os is too often the re
sult In the treatment by Quinine, Mercury, Arsenic, and
other poisonous <r deleterious drugs, not a particle of any
of which is admitted into this preparation.
The proprietor distinctly claims these extraordinary re
sults from the use of this NATURAL ANTIDOTE TO
MALARIA.
It will entirely protect any resident or traveler even in
tho_ mo6t sickly or swampy localities, from any Ague or
Bilious disease whatever, or any Injury from constantly in
haling Malaria or Miasma.
It will instantly check the Ague in persons who have suf
fered for any length of time, from one day to twenty years,
so that they need never have another chill, by continuing its
use according to directions.
It will immediately relieve all tho distressing results of
Bilious or Ague diseases, such as general debility, night
sweats, etc. The patient at once begins to recover appetite
and strength, and continues until a permanent and radical
cure is effected.
Finally, its use will banish Fever and Ague from families
and all clashes. Farmers and all laboring men, by adopt
ing it as a preventive, will bo free from Ague or Bilious at
tacks In that season of the year which, while It Is the moßt
sickly, is the most valuable one to them.
One or two bottles will answer for ordinary cases; some
may require more; Directions printed in German, French
and Spanish, accompany each bottle' Price One Dollar.
Liberal discounts made to the trade. Trade circulars for
warded on application, and the article will be consigned on
liberal terms to responsible parties in every section of the
