Distur bunco.
Only a few days since, we noticed in our
columns that a quarrel had taken place
between a respectable Democrat and his
colored lady friend. We are again called
upon to chronicle a like disgraceful affair.
This happened on Telfair street. The par
lies interested will know who we allude to.
We warn you—should we be compelled to
refer to similar disturbances again, the names
of all parties will be mentioned.

WelWTrained Animal*.
The street car folks keep well-trained
animals—one of their horses, passing down
Broad street, yesterday evening, owing to
some extra strain upon his harness, suddenly
skinned himself, ot at least the tanned hide
which was on him. The horse, eschewing
the example of all bad horses, stood still
till put to again, and then went on his way
rejoicing.
In Trouble.
The serenity of the Ku-Klux local has
been disturbed. Mayor Blodgett has not
consulted him about appointments, suspen
sions and removals. That is too bad. We
cannot see why he should make such a fuss
over policemen that, we believe, have uni
formly voted the Republican ticket. As to
the lot inspectors, one of them is understood
to be a Democrat and the other a Republi
can.

Dark.
Last night the street lumps were nut lit,
and it was absolutely too dark to tell the
truth out doors; so we came in where we
keep a little gas on private account to have
our growl out, and yet keep within the
bounds of veracity. It appears that the
parties who have the contract of lighting
the street lamps for the city are not required
to light them at any time when the moon
js supposed to be shining. This is a good
and economical arrangement if the moon
could be depended on. But sometimes it
happens that the sky is overcast with clouds,
as it was last night, and tliq,consequence is
our streets are hardly navigable—people
butt against one another, and the thieves
have a tine chance to skulk and prowl, and,
perchance, do great mischief. This is a
matter easily remedied, and one to which
our city fathers should give attention.

Prussia Rearing Liberal Testimony.
The Medical College of Breslau, Prussia,
by command of the Government, instituted
enquiries in regard to the purity of Dr. Rad
way’s Pills. The following is a copy of the
report, after a thorough analysis, signed by
Professors of the College :
Report oj an Analysis of Radway's Reyu
lating Pills,
Instituted for the • satisfaction of the
Prussian Govdfnment and people. It ap
pears that the great popularity of the Pills
throughout Germany, as an aperient, anti
billious and alterative medicine, had pro
voked the malice of the apothecaries, who
caused a report to be circulated that the
ingredients were poisonous. Therefore a
scientific inquisition into their nature and
properties was ordered, the issues of which
was a most triumphant vindication of the
sanitary value of the Pills.
The Faculty of the College state in their
report that after a careful aud minute ex
amination, they have the honor to state that
“ the Pills are not only free from every sub
stance injurious to health, but are composed
wholly of substances and elements promotive
of digestion, and certain at the same time to
act favorably upon the nervous system,”
etc., etc. They state, further, that the inju
rious rumors set afloat by the Prussian
apothecaries originated “in a mean spirit of
trade jealousy, excited by the great celebrity
attained by lhe Pills within a very brief
period.”
Signed in behalf of the College.

Director of the Polytechnic Bureau.

Radway’s Regulating Pills are composed
of vegetable extracts (prepared in vacuo),
free from all inert, crude, or irritating sub
stances. Thefirstdose commences its work
of purifying the blood, regulating the liver,
cleansing the stomach and intestines, and
purging from the system all acrimonious
and corrupt humors. One pill, taken two
hours before dinner, will create a good appe
tite and insure a healthy digestion.
Bile. — Bile on the stomach will be elimi
nated by one dose of the pills—say from four
to six in number. When the liver is in a
torpid state, nothing can be better than Rad
way’s Regulating Pills. They purge easily,
are mild in operation, and when jaken are
perfectly tasteless, being elegantly coated
with gum. They are recommended lor the
cure of all disorders of the stomach, liver,
kidneys, nervous diseases, indigestion, dys
pepsia, biliousness, bilious fever, inflamma
tion of the bowels, piles, and symptoms
resulting from the disorders of the digestive
organs.
The Aged suffer from coslivencss and
paralysis of the bowels, and may have to use
injections to keep the bowels open. Take
two to four of Radway’s Pills every night;
in a few weeks the bowels, liver, kidneys,
etc., will be restored to sound health and
strength—a regular discharge from the bow
els will be secured daily.
