per pert of the Asronn building, a vast j
. staldiahiuent, five stories in height, form- ■
inc a hollow square in the rear of Chestnut
ud Fourth stieets, occupied by various
branches of manufacture, wtuoU together
with nearly all its contents was •. ntlrely de
stroyed. Every part of the building was
tenanted by workshops, with valuable ma
chinery driven by an eighty-horse engine in
the baseuient.
Mr. Duval, the well knnwu Lithograph
er, occupied one floor. Ills loss i estima
ted at SIOO,OOO, on which hie has but S3O

ve> and on immense stock of stones,
including the lithographs of commodore
•t'on v's Japan Expedition for the Govern
ment, and plates worth SO,OOO, all cout

and J. S. Camp, lithographer.
The total loss i- no* yet estimated, I>U|
must prove very heavy. The fire was so
rapid that scarcely anything was saved ex
cept from the lower floors. The rear of
I nitcd Suites Hotel on Chestnut street ■
adjoined the building, and its destruction
seemed inevitable. Tise borders took alarm
rnd fled for safety, but the damage from
i;.-e was very slight. It was however flood
ed with water.

occupied tire building, which was owned by .
U. Oowpertbwaite, and valued at §OO,OOO,

dollar,- worth of stock among the various
printing and binding establishments which
was mostly ineuicd.

State- Hotel, died during the Are from
fright.
In noditb nt i the oilier sufferers by the
fire should be mentioned Samuel X. Foster,
who loses almut §3.000. The aggregate
loss is estimated at $313,000. The stcej

j. A. RHODES, Esq : Dear Sir—As I took
your medicine to still ou cuiisignment, "no
cure no pay," 1 take pleasure in stating its el- .
feels a, reported to tne hy three brothers who
hve in this place, nd their testimony is a lair
specimen ol all 1 have received:
\\ . -S. Coxklin to hi me—'-1 had taken nine
bottles of Christie's Ague Balsam, and contin
ually ran down while using it until my lungs
' and liver were Congested to that degree that
j blood discharged from niy mouth and bowels,
so :h t all thought it impossible for me to live
through another chill. The doctors too did
ail they coufd tor me, but though I must die.
Nothing did any good until I got Rhodes 7 Ko-'
vcranl and Ague Cure, which at ouce reliev
ed me of the distress and nausea at inv atom- :
ach and pain in ray head and bowels, and pro
duced a permanent cure in a short time. 7 '
li. .M. Cu.viius say s: "I had been taking me
dicine 0.1 as good a doctor as we have in our
county , and taken any quantity of quinine
and specifics without any good result, from
!do August to lath December. But seeing how
nicely it operated on niy brother. I got a bot
tl< ot RHODES' FEVER AND AGUE CUKE,
w'tiich ctlVcted a perraaxiunt cure by using two
, thirds of a bottle."
S. M. f'oNKLix was not here, but both the
other brothers say his case was the same as 11.
M's. 1 sold the medicine to both the same
day. and the cure wis as speedy from the same
small quanti v, aui 1 might so spec fv. Yours
witnrespect. A. HUNTINGTON.
The above speaks for itself. Good proof as
it is, it is of no better tenor than the vast num
ber of like certificates 1 have already publish
ed, and the still greater amount that is contin
ually pouring in to me.
One thing more. Last year I had occasion
to Caution the Public in these words;—
■•1 notice one firm teke hart taken one of my gen
eral circulars, substituted the name of their nos
trum for my medicine, and then with brazen impu
dence end their pamphlet with the exclamation.
• Lid the proprietor of any other medicine say as
murl if he. dares, 7 " (<c.
Now J take pleasure in saving that the Cau
tion referred to the same '-Dr. Christie's Ague
Bals on" that is mentioned in the above eer
: tifieute.
There are several other industrious people
who a~e applying to their poisonous tr.ish.-al!
that 1 publish about my Fever and Ague Cure.
• or Antidote to Materia, except the certificates
of Cures, and the Certificate of tho celebrated
Chemist, Dr. James. R. Chilton of N. I'.. in
favor ot its perfectly HARMLESS CHAKAC
-1 hit. w hicb is attached to every bottle. These
will always serve to distinguish uiy medicine
from imitations.
