THE WOHKINa WOMEN’S BKI.IEF. ASSOCIATION.
This commendable organization is hard at work
completing the great scheme which it has devised
to ameliorate the condition of tho. sex. It has a
giant undertaking in hand, but seems to befidlly
equal to the task, and wo congratulate the working
women on securing such able and efflelent advo
cates. .Much will, of course, dependupon the wo
inen It purposes. to itonofH, and we doubt notlbut
tlwt it flu jeqclyc their hearty co-operation and
support, for it must necessarily prove a powerful
lever for women's fJelivorance from tho thraldom of
an in-rcnnUed servitude. In another column we
publish their address to the public ; it is an able ex
hibition of their wrongs and the course they intend
to pursue, is temperate in tone, containing fin im
portant table, of prices, together with quite a num
ber of extracts from loiters sent to~the association,
which the author of the address aptly says are
“ more than eloquent, lor they are true. The ef
fort is creditable to tao association, it shows that
prudence, moderation, and firmness govern its de
liberations, which argues well for its success. We
commend tbelr appeal to our readers.

THIS COURTS.
Common l’lons—.l iulgo Indtow.
Tho court was in session on Saturday. Nothing,
however, beyond calling and disposing of tho cases
on the various lists, was done.
Quarter .SeMions-Jiidgc Thompson.
The April torm of this court closed on Saturday.,

named, of murder in the second dogreo, for killing
his wife, and the last- of manslaughter, in having
caused the death of Christopher Young by pushing
him while drunk down a flight of stairs, were in tho

of the absence of his counsel, David Raul Brown,
Esq., and that of Kirchor because of a pending mo
tion in his case for a new trial. v

boas corpus and desortion cases of no importance or
interest.

to-day will bo held by Judge Allison..

THE POIjICE.
CBefore Mr. Alderman Beitler. 3
■ COMMITTED.
Elizabeth Hill (colored), who has several hearings
before Alderman Beitler .during the past week, on
the charge of larceny, was committed. by him to
prison on Saturday, in default of $2,000 ball.
CBefore Sir. Alderman Fields. 3
SUSPICIOUS.
A young man was arrested onSaturdayanfl taken
before Alderman Fields on tho chargo of having a
piece of gray easslmere In his possession, which he
could not give an account of. The goods await an
owner at the Fifteenth-ward station-house. ■
The Siamese Twins.—A correspondent of the
Macon Telegraph, who lately visited. the Siamese
Twins, gives the following account of them: >
Your readers have no doubt seen those remarka
ble individuals, the Siamese Twins, but few of them
perhaps have heen to their houses.and ! Seen them in
their domestic relations. . Though united by a liga
ment as strong as life itself they live a mile apart,
spending*alternately three. days at the one and the
other house, and allowing no .circumstance to defer
their departure from the one to the other when the
regular time arrives. The one at whose house you
visit them leads the conversation and acts master of
ceremonies, while the other speaks only as occasion
or politeness may require. One has eight and the
other nine children, hut one of whom is in tlio war,
the rest being girls and little boys. The twins are
good neighbors, intelligent, men, and thoroughly
patriotic. They are, to all appearances? two sepa
rate *md different men, with very little social resem
blance, and a marked .bontrast of character. Eng Is
mucu. the most: positive, self-willed, and uncompro
mlsing. They are seldom both sick at the same
time. Why should death result from a separation
of persons so unlike and so little subject to be
afflicted by each other’s infirmities! ■
; Tom , Taylor’s New iPlay.—Tom Taylor has
produced a new play called “Sense and Sensation.”;
The piece is somewhatullegorical as well as comical,
and .the.principal characters are the seven virtues
and-the seven vices, which come .to earth and as
sume human shapes and pass through various ad
ventures. Of course, the virtues get tho best of it
n the end. -

KBS. SHERHAX’S -CERTIFICATE—WALTHAM,
This is to certify that 1 hare been diseased for thirty
years past; The first appearance -was in my head, from
which it worked its way into my entire'system, causing
every joint and avenue in-mybody to feel there was a
great wrong somewhere. Dyspepsia* constipation of the
bowels, enlargement of the liver, a bronchial difficulty,
bad appetite, with a constant sick headache, and other
irregulariticsaiave been enemies with which I have had
. to grapple for the past thirty years.
My.sight,;he&ring»aud memory have also been failing
fdrsome years. I buyeresorted'to every system of prac
tice ofierod to suffering humanity. Nothing that doctors
of medicines could do but has been done for me, but all

that Mrs. M. G.' Brown would soon visit Boston, for the
Surpose of introducing her -Metaphysical Discovery for
fafness, &c., Ac.,;! determined to try that remedy w
a last resort. And now that l have done 50,.l tkinkit,

The discharge continued at intervalsfor about a week,
.Hy sick headache ceased. I felt the power of the medi
cine through every extremity of my body. Iverily be
lieve It to be the meat powertul agent for good that ever
was applied to the human system. From che very first
application I found it was taking hold of the root c»f aU
my troubles. As soon as my head was Uehvered.aU my
other diseases began to die out. My dyspepsia is gone.
