THE DEATH OF ;Lusts Irevis.--We published
a notice of the death of James Irvin, Co. E,
201st Penns Vols., in our paper of Saturday,
when it was reported that he had been killed
while attempting to arrest deserters. We
have since learned the particulars of the mel
ancholy affair, by which it appears that Mr.
I. came to his untimely end through the care
less handling of fire arms on the part of a com
rade. We are informed that two adjoining
rooms were occupied by James Irvin and John
Funk. In the partition between the rooms
there is a window, used for ventilation, at a
considerable height from the floor. Early on
Saturday morning Mr. Irtin seized an old pis
tol, which was not loaded, and, standing upon
his bed, extended his hand through the win
dow, and jestingly demanded Funk's money
or his life. Funk suddenly laid hold of a gun
(which be supposed to be his own)and snap
ped it at Irvin, when a loud report followed,
and Irvin fell headlong to the floor. A bullet
bad entered his head near the right temple,
and passed out back of his ear. He was at
once placed upon a bed, and medical aid sum
moned, but death ensued about an hour after
the accident occurred. Funk's gun was not
.loaded, but he unfortunately seized another
instead of his own, and through this mistake
he unintentionaly killed his fellow-soldier.
'The two men were on most intimate terms,
and were fast friends Mr. Funk's sorrow on
account of this occurrence cann ot be described.
The remains of Mr. Irvin arrivedhere early
on Sunday morning, in charge of a number of
his companions in arms.
The funeral will take place to-morrow, at
Farkesburg. The remains will leave here at
eight o'clock A. as.
Mr. I. leaves a wife and child, besides nu
merous other relatives and friends, to mourn
his loss.

C.A. BANNvAarr—Dear Sir: I have used Brown's
Bronchial Troches, Wistar's Lozenges, and
other preparations for hoarseness and throat
troubles, and, in comparison with them all,
can cheerfully commend your own as a most
admirable specific for public speakers and
singers, in cases of hoarseness, coughs and
colds. I have found them serving imtime of
need, most effectually.
Yours truly, T. H. ROBINSON,
Pastor of N. S. Presbyterian Church.

value of Bannvart's Troches.

To C. A. BA NN - vim—Dear Sir: In the habit
of speaking very frequently, and in places
where the vocal organs are very much taxed,
I have found the 'need of some gentle expec
torant, and.that want has been supplied in
your excellent Troches.
I consider them very far superior to any
Lozenges that I have ever used, in removing
speedily that huskiness of the voice arising
from its too frequent use, and impairing the
effectiveness of the delivery of public addres
ses. Yours, &c.,
JNO. WALKER JACKSON,
Pastor of the Locust St. Methodist Church
To C. A. Hoarvaar—Dear fir : Having used
your Troches, I am free to say they are the
best I have ever tried, and take great pleasure
in recommending them to all persons afflicted
with sore throat or huskiness of voice, arising
from public speaking or singing.

The oldest and most reliable medicine for
the cure of Spermatorho3a, Seminal Weakness,

the test of over thirty years, and has always
proved a success.
Dr. RAND'S SPECIFIC is exhibited in the
form of pills, made up entirely of substances
that have a specific effect upon the generative
organs. Most persons associate the idea of
operations upon the bowels from taking any
kind of pills. The SPEOERIO of Dr. Rand is
not intended as an evacuating medicine. Its
medicinal virtues are expended entirely upon
the impaired regenerative organs. The pills
are not unpleasant to the taste, and many
persons masticate them with impunity before
swallowing them ; which plan we would al
ways recommend, as affording the speediest
way to get the effect of the remedy.
Price $1 per box, or six boxes for $5. Sold
