The Nan who Fired the First
Shot.
The first American who discharged his gun
on the day of the battle of Lexington was
Kbenezer Locke, who died at Deering N. H.,
about 50 years ago. He resided at Lexing
ton in 1775. The British regulars, at the
order of Major Pitcairn, having fired upon
the rebels on the green in front of the meet
ing house, killing some and wounding others,
it was the signal for war. “ The citizens,”
writes, one, “ might be seen coming from all
directions, in the roads, over the fields and
through the,,woods —each with his rifle in his
hmd, his powder horn slung to his side, and
his pocket provided with bullets. Among the
number was Ebenezer Locke. The British
had posted a reserve of infantry a mile in the
rear, in the direction of Boston. This was
in the immediate neighborhood of,Mr. L.,
who insisted on hastening to join the parly at
the green, placed himself in an Old cellar at
a convenient distance for doing execution.”
A portion of the reserve were standing on the
bridge, and Mr. Locke commenced firing at
them, though there was no other American in
Right. lie worked valiantly for some min
utes, bringing down one of the enemy at
nearly every shot.*
Up to this time not a gun had been fired
elsewhere by the rebels. The British, greatly
disturbed at losing so many men by the ran
dom firing of an unseen enemy, were not
long in discovering the man in the cellar,
and discharged a volley of bullets, which
lodged in the wall opposite. Mr. Locke with
in—remained unhurt —continued to load and
fire with the precision of a marksman. He
was driven to such close quarters, however,
by the British on bis right and left, that he
was compelled to retreat. He had just one
bullet left and there was now but one way to
escape, and that was through ad orchard in
the rear. The soldiers were all around him,
one of them having even gained the orchard.
Not a moment was to be lost—he leveled his
gun at the man near by, fired, dropped the
gun, and the man was shot through the heart.
The bullets whistled about him ; Locke rea
ched the brink of a steep hill, and threw him
self upon ihe ground, tumbled downwards,
rolling as if mortally wounded. In this way
he escaped unhurt. At the close of the war,
he removed to New Hampshire, where he re
sided until bis death, some twenty years af
te;
Horrible Dream. —We once heard a
very laughable joke which a hen-pecked hus
band got upon his Mrs. Caudle. He had
borne her railing for many n long year, till
one morning she was blustering away about
the wood, short of potatoes, flour, &0., he re
marked very pathetically ;
“ Jertuh, 1 had a dream last night, a very
queer one, and it gives mo some uneasiness.
1 dreamed that I was taken sick and died.”
“ Well, if it was no more than that,” said
Jerush, “ I wish it had been more than a
dream.”
“ Bu 1 this is not all," said the husband. —
“ 1 went to bell, and when I got there, I
inquired of one of the imps of the old devil
hiinseir'and was shown into his presence,—
The old fellow recognised me at once, and
said he, “ have you come here to stay T” 1
told him I had. ” Well, I can’l have you
here !” said he, “ for if you slay, when Je
rush dies she'll come, and then hell will be in
an uproar all the lime !”
Soon after (he completion ol the narrative
of the dream, there came a shower of culina
ry utensils about the poor fellow’s head,
which made him obliged to seek quarters
elsewhere, till his Jezabel’s wrath bad sub
sided.

HUNTER'S Medical arid Hand!
Book for tbs Afflicted—Containing ap outline of the
origin, progress, treatment and cure of every form
of diseaso.conlracled by ptomispupps sexual, inter
course, by self-abuse or by sexual excess, with ad
vice for their prevention, written in a .familiar style,
avoiding all medical technicalities and, everything
that would offend the ear of decency j with an put
line of complaints.incident to females, from the re
sult of twenty yews' successfulpraclice,exclusively
denoted to the cure of diseases of a delicate or pri
veto nature.
To which is added receipts for the core of the
above diseases, and a treatise on the causes, symp
toms and cure of the FEVER and AGUE.
Testimony of the Professor of Obstetrics in the
Penn Medical College, Philadelphia —“ DR. HUN
TER’S MEDICAL MANUAL.'*,—The author of
this work, unlike the majority of those who adver
tise to core the diseases of which it treats is a grad
uate of oho of the best Colleges in the United States.
It affords me pleasure to recommend him to the un
fortunate, or to the victim of malpractice, as a suc
cessful and Experienced practitioner, in whose honor
and integrity they may place the greatest confidence.
Jos. S. Longsuore, M. D.
From A. Woodward, M. D., of Fenn Uninertity,
Philadelphia, —lt gives me pleasure to add roy testi
mony to the professional ability pf the author oftlic
Medical Manual. Numerous cases of Disease of
the Genital Organs, some of them of longstanding,
have come under my notice, in which Ins skill has
been manifest in restoring to perfect health in some
cases where the patient has been considered beyond
medical aid. In the treatment of Seminal weak
ness, or disarrangement of tho functions produced
by selfabuse or excessive vencry, I do not know his
superior in the profession. 1 have been acquainted
with the author some thirty years, and deem it no
mure than justice to him as well as kindness to the
unfortunate victim of early indiscretion, to recom
mend him as one in whose professional skill and in
tegrity they may safely confide themselves,
Alfred Woodward, M. D.
“ This is, without exception, the most comprehen
sive and intelligible work published on the classes of
diseases of which it treats. Avoiding all technical
terms, it addresses itself to the reason of its readers.
It ts free from all objectionable matter, and no par
ent, however fastidious, can object to placing it in
the hands of his sons. The author has devoted raa
ny years to the treatment of the various complaints
treated of, and with too little breath io puff and too
little presumption to impose, he has offered to the
world at the merely nominal price of 25 cents, the
fruit of some twenty years’ most successful practice.
—Herald.
“ No teacher or parent should beknowlede impar
led in this valuable work. It would save years of
pain and mortification and sorrow to the youth un
der their charge."— Peoples’ Advocate.
A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing of
“Hunter’s Medical Manual” says “Thousands
upon thousands of our youth, by evil example and
influence of the passions, have been led into the
habit of self.pollution without realizing the sin and
fearful consequences upon themselves and posterity.
The constitutions of thousands who are raising fam
ilies have, been enfeebled, if hot broken down, and
they do not know the cause or cure. Anything
that can be done so to enlighten and influence the
public mind as to check, and ultimately to renfovo
this wide spread source of human wrelchcdeess,
would confer the greatest blessing next to the relig
ion of Jesus Christ, ou the present and coming gen
eration. Intemperance (or the use of intoxicating
drinks) though it has slain thousands upon thou,
sands, is not a greater scourge to the human race.
Accept my thanks on behalf of the afflicted,and be
lieve mo your co-worker in the good work you are
so actively engaged in.”

ved the appropriate'name of “ Dtath4e-Pain," It
has. by being kept on hand by families who know
its value, boon the means of saving money, and of
ten life, by -its timely use in sudden attacks, and in
case of accidents. In all bruises and flesh wounds
this Death-to-pam is the best embrocation thatrean
be found. The soreness is immediately; extracted
—swellings reduced—and profuse bleeding stopped.
A single dose will ease the most severe griping pains
in the bowels, and a few applications will ease the
severest rheumatic and nervous pains. Dyspepsia
and its train of diseases is driven %>m its strong
hold. “Fever and Ague,” in tho language of a
western agent “can't aland before old .lieddy and
live.” Indeed-it is so with nearly every disease in
the catalogue. A ISediciat for the Slillitm'J

articles, all entirely Vegetable, each a remedial agent
in itself, yet so united as to form a most powerful
combination, and to take away one of these agents
