Important Information.
This wonderful Increase in the amount
of tobacco con..umed, during the past
few years, has created such a demand
for the article that manufacturers were
induced thereby, owing .to the scarcity
of the crop, to manufacture , an Inferior
article of both tobacco and segars, snd
the result was that the country was
fleoded with trash, and it was almost
impossible to procure a good quality of
either tobacco or segars. It Is a matter
of importance to the public at large to
know that some establishments mann
facture and keep
on hand a prime and
merchantable article. one at which is
tbat of Jobn Megraw, 46 Hand street,
where there le a large assortment of the
beat brands of tobacco and sagars, pipes,
and in fact everything to be found in .a
firstwlass tobacco house. Retail= dealers
will find' it to their 'udyaotage to give

A hearing-In the case of Thos. Hughes;
charged with felonious .assault • and bat
tery, on oath of Thomas Miller,. took
place yesterday, at eleven o'clock, and
resulted in the accused being held to bail
in the sum of 113,000 for his appearance at
Court.
The prosecuting witness, Miller;
was first examined, and underwent a
searching oross-examination, but as the ,
information had been made upon inforf
mation received, his testimony did not
throw much light on the case. He testii
tied to the fact of having been attacked
and beaten, but could not identify or de
scribe the parties who committed the as
sault.
William Lindsay was next called
and testified to the fact of hearing the
cry of murder and seeing two men run
out of the hall door bare-hetided. He
could not identify either of them posii
tively, but said that one of them wore
white pants, and in looking through the
crowd he pointed to Hughes, who, he
said, looked like the man.
John 'Willock was next called and
testified substantially the same as the
previous witness. He could not identify
the person who came out of the hall, but
said one wore light clothes and the other .
dark.
John Marks aLso testified to seeing the
men ran oat of the hall door, and de.:
scribed them as. the other witness had :
done, but could not identify either og
them. •
Mollie Brooks was next called and
stated that Hughes came to her house'
Saturday night between ten and eleven'
o'clock very drunk, and that his head
was bleeding. He wore a'silk hat and
had it on when he came in the house.
Hughes 'stayed all night with her, and
was arrested Sunday morning, and she
sent and borrowed a hat and coat for
him.. Ttie hat he wore there she said had
been mislaid but was afterwards found.
Several witnesses were called 'and •
testified that Hughes wore a suit of light
clothes Saturday afternoon.
Another witness testified to finding a
silk bat and far hat in the hall where the
assault was committed.
Officer Moon testified that he arrested'
Hughes, assisted by officers Dressler and
McCready. Found him in a house kept'
by Mollie Brooks, on Federal street. ,
Hughes was in bed, when the officers!
went in. He had no hat, and a young,
man went out and brought him in a hat
and a dark coat: Saw a light, coat lying,
on the' table.. „Hughes stated that he',
had been drunk and In a light the night(
previous, and lost his hat.
Officer Dressler was next sworn, and.
fully corroborated the testimony of Mr.l'
Moon.
The testimony for the prosecution here
closed, and Mr. Gibson, defendant's
counsel, stated that as the Common.'
Wealth bad failed to make out a case, he
did not think the defendant should be"
held, and asked that he be discharged.!
Mr. McCarthy. who also represented
the defendant, 'desired to offer testimony ,
in order to clear any suspicion that'
might attach to Mr. Hughes from the
circumstances in the case.
Two or three witnesses were called, who
testified to the fact of having been with
Hughes on the night of the difficulty,
between eleven and twelve o'clock, and
stated that he was very drunk. Found
him in a saloon on Wylie street, and;
started to take him !lonia. He refused
to go home, but proposed to go up on the
hilt; and the party started up Wylie
street, and when near Federal, saw some .
persona',coning down, when Hughes
broke away from the party, ran across.
and was knocked dtiwn. They left him
then and went house.
As the case will be fully 'lnvestigated,
in the courts, comment from us at this•.
time would beont of place.

We do not propose to go into a lengthy',
disccinrso on styles or fashions, for the' ,
sinirde reason that in many things they
stylep,change so frequently thsit we have
not been able to keep pace with them,;
but having great confidence in the judgH
mentiof many of our lady -friends, we are
content to take their opinion as tb such),
matt re, and the universal theme of con-;
versa ion among the ladies,this season, is )
the ailendid stock of trimmings and lace)
goods at tV. W. Moorhead's, No. 81 Mar-1

ence in business enables him to purchase
goods in the eastern market upon the.
most reasonable terms, and he cones.;

* * * * * We groped about for
hours in this wonderful place. I never
saw an, thing like it. The freaks of nature
displayed here are very strange, and
strike the beholder with awe. But the
air in some parts of the cave is close and
stifling, and when we came out I found
: myself saddled with 'a .terrible fever,
which entirely postrated me. The phy
sician had 'Amer seen a case like it before,
and no remedy he prescribed seemed to
do the least good. My life was despaired
of. Mrs. Wilson, with whom I was re
siding, had in the house[ a bottle of
PLANTATION BITTERS, and she insisted
that I should try it, for she said she
knew it to be a certain cure in all- cases
of fever, debility, ague, dyspepsia, -fitc.
I had but little faith, bat finally consent
ed to try it as a last resort. less than
three hours after the first doss my- fever
left me: in two 'days I was sitting up,
and beibre Saturday night I was as well
as ever. I tell you all this that you may
know how to act in any case of fever, or
any similar disease. I firmly believe the
PLANTATION BITTERS saved my life.
* * * * * In my next I will tell
you about the cave in detail. A. Jr. P.
