This post ponement la made nt the request of a large number of delegates elect, who have engagements to bo present nt a triennial conclave of Knights Temp lar, which assembles at Cleveland, Ohio, on the 20th day of August next. By order of the Committee, HENRY M. HOYT, Chairman. A. WILSON NORRIS, Secretary. Fatal Tattooing. A YOUNfl WIDOW AND 150 YOUNG MEM TUB VICTIMS OF P19EASKO TRAMP. Emma Hunaburgcr, about Iwenty-ono years of age and a widow, two weeks ago had a tattooer put two sets of loiters ou her right ami, the initials of two names. Shortly after the work of the poisoned needles and India ink had been concluded afoul disease showed itself on her arms and on various portious of bcr body. . Her condition became known to a number of people, among whom was officer Shay, who learned that the man was known as "Bum mer Bill," and had been lodged in jail on the charge of vagrancy. Mrs. Hunsbnrgcr subsequently died. Tho undertaker who removed the body said: ''A near relative of tho young lady came down from Lebauon and said ho and their family were not in the best circumslan. ees. We put the body in a coffin, took it to the depot and shipped it to its destination, relying upon the man's honesty to pay the bill whenever ho felt that ho could pay it." Dr. BrenWser said: ''I did not attend the young woman, neither did I know her. On Tuesday I was visited by two men, who said they had been sent by a doctor re siding in the upper section of the city (the doctor's namo was mentioned) to me for a certificate, as the doctor who did at tend tho woman cither had gono away or was going away in a hurry to a distant part of town to visit a patient, I asked the men what ailed the woman and they said "liver complaint." The physician who did attend her said she died of inllamimi tion of the bowels." Sr. Kalbach has had quite a number of eases and he is of the opinion that fit least 150 young men and boys havo been inocu. luted in this city alone. Many of the cases arc terrible ; the arms aro swollen and the body and limbs covered with blotches and cruptious. The doctor wa3 told of a very bad case, when he replied that if it was not properly treated at once death might en sue. Many of tho young men under Dr. Kalbach's treatment were tattooed nt the Hampton Spring. The tattooer used his spittle to mix the inks, and at times placed the needles in his mouth. Tho doctor was of the opinion that tho tattooer did not know the terrible destruction ho was do ing. Dr. Davis agreed with Dr. Kalbach in the number of cases of syphilitic inocula tions by the tattooer, And," said tho doc tor, ''I have treated and am still treating a number of cases of tho vi ry wcrt character. If you will wait until one of tho patients oomes I will bIiow you a sample cose arms, body and limbs covered with syphilitic eruptions caused by tho poisonous tattooing process. Lt is really a bad sta;e of atl'airs, sowing the seeds of a terrible disease in its very worst form. I have no doubt that sevoral hundred people tvero latooed, but out of that number thcro may havo been one-fifth whose systems wero not in a con dition to tako the poison and be affected by it." Reading (Pa.) Eagle. J HAD NEVER FOUND ANY- r ui n a j: e f o n f, that HELPED ME SO WELL. Owing to its Healing, Nerve Re storative and Cleansing properties, all female complaints are at once bene fited by the use of Dr. Fenner's Blood and Liver Remedy and Nerve Tonic, and euro inevitably follows in a reasonable time. It has also special properties adapted to this class of dis eases, and its cleansing and regulating qualities, together with its building up or Restorative action on the nerves, adapt it specially to these cases. Here is a complication very common to fe males, readily relieved : Jamestown, N, Y Dec. 20, 1871. Dr. jr. jr. Fenner, Frertonia, N. Y. Dear Kir: I was nfllictcd with Dyspepsia, llouducho.

In the present number, wo have, ninong other articles, "Tire For hines of Phillippa Fairfax," by Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett, whose "Lass O'Lowrie;" has just made 6uch a sensation in the literary world, having been pronounced the best American novel that has nppenred for years.
