ARKANSAS COVRTS.—The way they do it.—A
correspondent of the New York Spirit of the
Times, writing from Eldorado, (Ark.) relates
the following:
"R.. H. M., an attorney of high standing at
our bar, being consel in a case then pending,
was called by the Sheriff from the Court House
door three times distinctly—H. H. M. Esq. ;
It. IL M. Esq., ; It• H. M. Esq ; but no ans
wer to either call, and it was impossible to pro
ceed without him. Some inquiry was made by
the Court " in person," when one of the crowd
walked up to the ben , •ll, saying : "Ef you want
him, pertickeler, Judge, he's over at B's play
ing poker." Here was a fix. The Court had
too much respect fur such sport to break up
the came, but could not conveniently adjourn;
so, after reflecting a moment, he very cooly re
marked to his informant, "Go over and play his
hand awhile, and tell him to come into court."
BREACH OF PROMISE.—In the Court of
Common Pleas of Bucks county, last
week, Lydia Moore recovered $1 dama
ges of Howard Stewart, for breach of
montage promise. The parties lived in
Doylestown. Howard had been cour
ting the girl admit !hret months, when
in 1847, on the Tuesday evening before
the election, he mustered courage, ac
cording to the testimony of her sister,.
to speak his mind to the plaintiff in this
wise:—"Now, Lydia, I've come to see
you quite long enough; now I want you
to tell me whether you are going to
marry me or whether you are not." To
which she, as in duty bound, replied,
" Of course, Mr. Stewart, if you think
we can agree." They were to have
been married on the next Monday, and
as " flow,trd's father was to move to the
mill he would take the farm next spring."
But "the course of true love never yet
ran smooth." They were not married on
the next Monday, and short as the time
was, their next interview was not a very
loving bee. The second witness says
"On Tuesday evening, the week after
the election, Lydia met Hownrd outside
of the Methodist church. Lydia . said,
"Mr, Howard Stewart, I want to know
what is the matter with you." He said
"nothing at all is the matter with me."
"Well," says she, " I want to know
what you are going to do, whether you
are going to marry moor not." Says he
"No;" and pushed her away with his
arm - . Says she, "Give me my ring."
Says he, " I am going to keep that."
Lydia must, however, hove been a great
coquette, far a witness for the defence
said he had seen "ten or twelve young
fellows running after her ;" and another
testified as follows- 7 '' saw her and
another girl with 16 men. Four went
in with them—three stood at the door_
the rest over the street."
THE YELLOW FEVEE.—The Philadel
phia Sun says—this yellow fever con.
earning gold, raging as it now appears,
does not begin to equal the Pottsville
coal mania twenty years ago. We
went to Schuylkill county then with only
a valise containing a single change, ex
pecting to make a fortune, and be back
in a few days. Now people go to Cal
ifornia to stay a year or two, and come
hack millionaires. We were not quite
so successful as we expected to be
though we laid in a stock of experience
which admonishes us not to go to Cal
ifornia.

attEENE—I take great pleasure in inform
ing you of the effects of the medleirie tallg Oi
ygenated Bitters you had the kindness to send
me. For some twenty years I find suffered se
verely from humored Asthma. I was compelled
to sit up one third of the night, without going to
bed at all ; and the rest of the time my sleep was
interrupted by violent fits of coughing and great
difficulty of breathing. In all my attendance
upon our courts I never went to bed in Northamp
ton in twenty years but twice, rind then wits com
pelled to get up. Now I lie in bed without difli
cultY, and sleep, roundly. I took your medicine
accor,ling to directiohs. The violent symptoms
immediately abated. and' perseverance in the use
I of the remedy ha's removed all its troublesome
consequences. The value of such a remedy is
incalculable, and I hope its virtues nine be wide•
iy diffused and its benificent agentY extensively
employed.
Respectfully youth,
DVSPIENIA CURED.

Mc.arc Collier & Bra,
Gentleman—ln reply to your note an to the
effect of the Oxygenated Bitters in my. case. I
would say; that I have been afflicted with Dyspep
sia about nix years, and have tried many known
remedies, but obtained no relief. until a friend
recommended the Oxygenated Bitters. • • • •
I wee finally induced to procure two bottler of
you, and I had not taken half a bottle before I
felt its effects upon my system end after the use
of the second bottle, I found myself in a state of
health as unexpected as it was gratifying. 'Co
the afflicted I have no hesitation in recommend
ing the Bitters, as superior to any medicine I
hare ever heard of for the cure of Dyspepsia.
Very Respectfully yours,
