Respa:led :—I have been for a long series of years al.
flitted with Dyspepsia, Inactivity of the Liver, and Nervous
Debility. My mental powers have boon so reduced as to
render me quite unfit for the transaction of any kind of
business. After consulting many eminent physicians, and
using their pre.ecriptlons, and after using the moot popular
remedies of the day, cuppesed to ho applicable to my case,
I always failed to have a permanent relief. A friend, with
much peruuasion, induced mo to try a bottle of your celobra.

Leceased lett Pittaturgh oa the 17tE. Dreamt on
board of steamer Belmont for Cincinnati. tald steamer
proceeded on her voyage and came to et Now Cumberland,
about 11 eleven o'clock same rilaht. along ri'd , of steamer
Eunice. Said Vanderleiste asked me how long the tont
would remain; I answered him, all night. We left the
above named place about daylight; when we arrived at
Steubenville I remarked to Mr. Forsyth, our ascend clerk,
that the man who wee so noisy and drunk aboard the boat
was missing. I thought nothing more about him, supposing
he had been left on board steamer Eunice. The Belmont
went onto Louisville, and returned to this place, when I
heard aft old lady enquiring about her eon; I remarked, I
did not know anything about him, but there was a traveling
bag or satchel in the office, which she was shown, and
claimed by her as her missing eon's. Anything further in
regard to the matter deponent kuoweth not.
STANDISII PEPPARD,
Clerk Steamer Belmont.
STATELIEST OF IT. FORSYTH, SECOND CLERIC OF STFLIIIII EEL
Having noticed several articles in the newspapers con
cerning the drowning of Charles Vand,rkiste cff the steamer
Belmont, the following i 3 a correct statement of the affair
as near as I can remember Charles Vanderkiste en
gage deck passage on the Belmont for Cincinnati on the 17th
of December last. My attention was first attracted by ob.
serving him on the wharf that afternoon, in company with
his wife, he being intoxicated at the time. I saw nothing
more of him until ten or eleven o'clock that night. I was
sitting in the ball, when he came ho and asked for liquor,
which the barkeeper refused him, his appearance indicating
that he had already been drinking too freely. Ho then
went down stairs, and that was the last I saw of him. Next
morning Ur. Peppard remarked to me that he had not seen
the man who had created such a disturbance the evening
before. Having landed at Now Cumberland during the
night, and laid alongside the steamer Ennio), we supposed
be had either goes ashore or on board the Eunice. We
were surprised on oar return to Pittsburgh by a visit from
his mother and wife, who stated they had never heard any
thing of him since he left here. We gave them all the in
formation concerning him that we know.
W. FORSYTH,
Second Clerk Steamer Belmont
After hearing those statements, and taking into consider
ation the fact that Vanderkiste had been at Now Cumber
land on the Belmont, and that his body had been found
nearly three miles above that point, the Mayor concluded
that the crow of the boat could have no knowledge of his
death, and accordingly dismissed the whole matter. The
officers of the boat date that the stories circulated by the
two Mrs. Tanderkistes, mother and wife of the deceased,
have been very detrimental to the interests of the boat.
Brom the evidence contained in these statements it is quite
probable that Vanderkiste, after getting off the Belmont at
New Cumberland, wandered up the river, and being very
much intoxicated, fell into the river and was drowned.
Tut OarriAN's Faint ScuooL.—The annual fair and festival
for this institution will be commenced. this afternoon and
bo cent Mind this evening and to-morrow in eh° City Hall,
Market street, for the benefit of this noble charity, founded
by Rev. Mr. Passavant, and still under his care. We be
speak for the benevolent ladles a cordial response from a
generous public, f.)r not only is the cause most worthy of it,
but the ladles have spared no pains to make this occasion
one of great interest and attraction. Let all attend who
can, and thus each one will do his part toward assisting in
this excellent work.
THEATRE.—The Morris, Pell and Trowbridge Minstrels
opened at the Theatre to a full house last evening. They
are, without exception, the best Ethiopian minstrels now
traveling. Their singing is of the first order, especially
that of the young prodigy, Master Rentz, whose voice is
truly wonderful. All the jokes and comicalities are new;
we are not compelled to listen to a rehash of antiquated
newspaper jokes, but there is a freshness and originality
about the witticisms of Billy Morris and Johnny Pell which
renders them very acceptable. We feel warranted in saying
that this company will be successful here—especially when
such an attraction as Dick filter is added to it.
FOSTER'S NamosaL.—Mr. Neafie commence] his engage
ment at the National last evening, under anything
but favorable auspices. We were really sorry to see
so slim a house. His personation of the character of
Damon was equal to any we have seen, and superior to most.
This evening Mr. N. appears in a sterling play called "Civi
lization, or the Indian at Court," in which he sustains the
character of Hercule, the Indian. The piece is well cast
and we hope to pee a better hcuse.
KIEPOG A Puaocpus Hon.—Ann M'Claulay made oath be.
fore Mayor Weaver yesterday against a family named Reams,
who reside on Point street, in the First Ward, charging them
with keeping ferocious kegs, and setting forth that on Erin'
day one of them came air ng sad took a child of hero, only
five years old, by the leg, and carried it some distance down
street, and that had assistance not arrived tho child would
have been devoured. Warrants were issued, and the pro•
prietors of the offending porker will likely be arrested
to-day.
BALE OP ELEGANT Funarroan Tars Alonarsch—At 10 o'clock
this morning, in Davis' second floor sales room, Fifth street,
will be sold, by order of the Administrator, the extensive
variety of elegant Pittsburgh made Furniture, which was
yesterday so much admired by all visitors. The articles are
of the very choicest styles, modern and antique; and being
arranged to be sold in the order of printed catalcgue,makes
attendance and parchasingpleaantand c:nvenlent; so that
the ladles can give this eale their attention.
Rana= ex OFFiczn.—A man, who gave his name as Pell,
became disorderly in a beer hall yesterday, throwing a beer
glass at a person in the hTuse. Ho was ejected from the
premises, and on the outside ho picked up a stone and threw
it through the windows. An officer attempted to arrest him,
when he struck him, broke loose, and ran down Fifth street.
He was captured, taken to the watch house and fined ten
dollars for his afternoon's amusement.
A max by the name of Taggart, from a place called Web
eter, on the Monongahela river, above Monongahela City,
died yesterday afternoon very suddenly et the National Ho.
tel on Water street. He had been drinking " Minnie rifle
whisky " pretty freely for the past two days, and was carried
to his bed very drunk only a few in inutea before he died.
Doctor Tindle was called in, but the man was dead ere ho
reached him.
REAL ESTATE AND STOCKS AT AUCTION.—This evening, at
eighl o'clock, Mr. Davis will sell in his second floor sales
rooms, Fifth street, by order of Executors, Real Estate and
Ground Relit of William Anhui's, deceased. Also, by order
of Orphans' Court, the valuable Real Estate of the Rev-
John Ta•sey, deceased. At the same time a list of valuable
stocks. The Executors and Administrators have ordered
that the above sales shall be positive and without reserve
Imrsoviso.—Yesterday morning there was not a single
common case before the Mayor. Monday morning is un
usually dull, and it is a gratifying evidence that the ordi
nance relative to selling liquor on Sunday is rigidly en
forced. However, it might be more so, as we saw ono well
known establishment in full blast on Sunday night.
COL Joan DICOREIZAD, recently of Indiana, Pennsylvania,
is about to open the Perry House on Duquesne Way. This
hotel has been thoroughly cleaned, painted and papered, and
will be newly furnished. We would recommend this house
to all who desire a quiet, comfortable home, awl we think
Mr. Moorh-ad will make an admirable host.
Goon Tas:a IS DRESS.—A young lady was complimented
a few days ago, by a gentleman, on the beauty and sim
plicity of her silk dress. She replied, "I am glad you like
my dress; it cost just seven dollars. I purchased it at A.
WTighe's, corner of Grant and Fifth streets, where you can
find one bundred more of the same sort at seven dollars a
dress."
Peturrs.—The following patents have been granted re
cently ; Michael Loughren, of this city, for an improved
spike machine; David Alter and Samuel A. Hill, of Free
port, for an improvement in revolving retorts for the distil
lation of coal ; John Little, of Johnstown, for an improve
ment in straw cutters.
Tne case of the Bluff Mining Company va. James W.
Woodwell, fcr the recovery of a subscription alleged to have
been made to the capital stock of said company, was still
on trial in the District Court yesterday.
Meson &Turman had no baldness of importance to trans•
act yesterday. Sunday in Allegheny, as well as on this side,
was very quiet. The Germans were celebrating the inaugu
ration of bock beer, but as they conducted their festivities
in a quiet way, they were not molested in their enjoyment.
CraSTRUCTERG Tu SIDESULLES.—Quito a number of mer
chants doing business on Wood and Market streets, were
before the Mayor, yesterday, charged with violating a city
ordinance in leaving goods on the sidewalks in front of their
Acmes for display. They were fined and discharged.
Pnov. W. E. MOORE, late President of the lowa State Ly
Ceum, will deliver a lecture this evening in Masonic Mall
on South America. Admission twenty-five cents.
A May, whose name we did not learn, was thrown out of
the St. Clair Hotel, last evening, and his head striking
against the pavement, ho was severely injured.
BOYS' clothing for Spring and Summer, made with neat
ness and care, can be had at fair rates, from Carnoghan,
Federal street, Allegheny City. Boys' shirts, white and
colored, boys' gloves, hodery and under wear, and many
little articles of boys' dress, such as aro with difficulty
obtained, will be found at his establishment fur reasbnable
rates.
.0a- THE SUCCESS WHICH ATTENDS THE USE OT
DR. J. HOSTETTER'S Celebrated Sumach Bitters evinces at
once its virtues in ell cases of debility and disease of the
Stomach. Certificates almost without number have been
published, attesting its almost miraculous power in remov.
ing thoskpainfal and fearful diseases. And at this time it
seems idlejto do more than call attention to the great reme
dy of tho 'age, In order to awaken public attention to its ex
cellence. It is the only preparation of the kind that is re
llaffe in all cases, and it is therefore worthy of the consid.
oration of the afflicted. The Bitters are pleasant to the
taste, agreeable in their effects, and altogether valuable as
a tonic or remedy for indigestion.

ROXBURY, MASS
MUM Menu,—Tho reputation of the Medical Discovery,
in curing all kind of humors ' is so well established by the
unanimous voice of all who have ever used it, that I need
not say anything on the subject, as the most skilful physi.
clans and the most careful Druggists in the country are nn•
animous in its praise.
In presenting the Medical Discovery to your notice, I dc
it with a full knowledge of the curative power. in relieving
all, and curing moat of those diseases in which you are nu
fortunately so liable. That most excruciating disease to an
affectionate mother.
NURSING SORE MOUTH,
Is cured as if by a miracle; your own temper is restorod C•
its natural sweetness, and your babe from short and fretful
naps to calm and sweet slrunbera ; and the Medical Discove
ry booomes a fountain of biasing to your husband and
household.

Your stomach b
RAW AND INFLAMED,
your food distresses yen, and you can only take certain
kinds, and oven of that your system does not got half the
nourishment it contains as the scrimonous fluid of the canker
eats it up; then your complexion loses its bloom and be
comes sallow or greenish, and your beet day Is gone. For
want of nourishment your system becomes looso and flabby,
and the fibres of your body become relaxed. Then follows
train of diseases which the Medical Discovery in peculiarly
adapted to
CURE;
Palpitation of the heart, pain in the side, weakness of the
spine and small of the back, pain of the hip Joint when you

PILES.
How many thousands of poor women are suffering from
this disease-and pining away a miserable life, and their next

oo your mind that good old proverb, "An ounce of proven.
Lion is better than a pound of cure." In the
MEDICAL DISCOVERY
you have both the preventative and the cure, with this great
and good quality, that it will never, tinder any cirentustances,
do you any injury.
No hnnge of diet ever necessary—eat the boat you can get
