SUNDAY MORNING, JUNE 6, 1809
And he did many wonderful works, inso
much that his name was pronounced in
many tongues. And there came unto him
Judith, from the seaports of New Bedford,
who had been sick for many years ; and
after some days her pains were gone. She
slept soundly, and did rejoice in eating her
food. And Asa, from those which arc call
ed Quakers, in the great city of Philadel
phia, wrote an epistle, saying: “O, Doc
tor ! accept thou this money, which is call
ed greenbacks, and hath the picture of
Abraham, thy friend, on one end. For
yerily I was weak, exhausted and despond
ent; I ate but little, and suffered many
pains, and thy Plantation Bitteiis gave
me health,.likened only unto the vigor of
youth. And upon such as are afflicted
with liver complaint, with sour stomach,
with general debility and dyspeptic pains,
in all parts of the land, did these Bitters
produce astonishing cures.

The Waiters’ Strike—Comic Scenes and
Incidents.
The funniest strike of all is the strike of
the waiters. The facts of the case have al
ready been tyul before our readers—but
there are some of the incidents in other
journals worth narrating :
The dining rooms of the Astor, St. Nich
olas, Clarendon, and other hotels (pending
the waiters’ strike) were yesterday scenes
of numerous comic incidents. The guests
were much amused at these blunders, and
laughingly remarked that it was all right;
but tired travelers growled with a ven
geance, and regarded their half-furnished
plates with dismay.
HOW SALAD DRESSING WAS FURNISHED.
At one of the tables a young gentleman
with a purple neck tie ordered a plate of
salad dressing. The waiter receiving the
order had recently been employed as a
driver on the Third avenue cars. He took
the order with some hesitation, and return
ed with a bowl of water cresses. The
young man with the purple neck tie pro
tested, and the waiter departed, returning
with a dish of string beans. The voting
man smiled, and said:
“This is not what I ordered, but it will
do. How’s your celery?”
“ Thirty dollars a month and found, sir,”
was the reply. “ I tuk the place of one of
the strikers, sir. They wanted thirty-five
dollars a month.”
CUBTARD PIE AFTER SOUP.
A G< •rman tailor, who was desirous of
‘•changing his business, had charge long
table, lie furnished each of his guests
with soup, and then brought on the custard
pie with a grand flourish. A tired traveler
looked at the pie, and then roared out,
“Here, you—what’s 11ns? I want some
roast beet, rare. Hurry up, for I’ve got to
catch the train at half past 6.”
Two minutes after the German tailor,
wiiose head was bursting with orders,
dropped a charlotte russe and a plate of
pickles in front of the traveler, who turned
them over with his fork, and again shouted
lustily for roast beef.

SHOT IN TtfE NECK.
A keeper of a Bowery fruit stand was
observed among the crowd of waiters. He
appeared as awkward in his white apron as
an organ grinder’s monkey in anew jacket.
A dignified old gentleman, accompanied by
two sparkling daughters, raised his finger,
and the Bowery boy slid to his side with
the grace of a cart horse.
“ A wine card,” said the old gentleman.
The East-sider glanced at him in evident
confusion, stood in a reflective attitude for
ten seconds, and then rushed to the waiter’s
dressing room, where he had left his coat.
In a minute, he reappeared before the
astonished guest with a deck of greasy
playing cards, which he tossed upon the
table, accompanied by the words, “ All
right, my old covey ; fill your hand.”
The head waiter here came to the rescue,
ascertained that the stranger wished a bot
tle of Carted ’Or, and sent it to the table,
to be opened by the Bowery fruit dealer.
Without waiting for it to cool, he knocked
off the top with the edge of a china plate.—
In a second the old gentleman’s bald head
was shampooed with the froth, and many
little rivulets of champagne ran down his
back and only stopped In his boots. While
the venerable stranger was wiping his neck
and sputtering :orth his indignation, an
awkward waiter opposite popped a cham
pagne cork in his eye, and drizzled the bot
tle over the chignon of an English blonde.
A WASn DISH FOR A FINGER HOWL.
During the day two Englishmen, who
had arrived on the Java, visited one of the
hotels and sat down to dinner. The sup
was furnished In due style. The next course
was fish ; and the waiter, who had been a
car conductor, zealous in his duty, dropped
two pieces of cocoanut pie in frout*of the
Britons. The Englishmen stared at one
another, and then asked for the bill of fare.
The conductor, iu a fit of absence of mind,
replied :
“ Goin’ through? Seven cents to Har
lem.”
The Englishmen again looked at each
other in astonishment, growled at the pe
culiarity of American customs, and called
for the regular course. This was served
with a vengeance. “Potted pigeons’’ were
called for. The waiter brought the birds,
but said that he couldn’t find any pot to
put them in. Pine apples accompanied
roast turkey, boiled potatoes came with
ice cream, sponge cake hobnobbed with
hash, turnips were brought in with rice
pudding, and charcolate cake appeared on
the same dish wit i St. Louis ham. Tiie
Englishmen were evidently surprised at
the culinary tastes of the Americans, but
they kept very quiet until the close of their
dinner, when they asked for finger bowls.
Car conductor—“ W hat ?”
First Englishmen—“ Bring us two finger
bowls.”
Second Englishman—“ And two nap
kins.”
Car conductor—“ What’s a finger-howl ?”
First Englishman—“ Why, stupid, a bowl
to wash our Angers iu.”
Second Jlnglisiiman—“Yes, and the tow
els are to dry our hands.”
The car conductor disappeared, and af
ter a long-time returned with two old
fashioned tin wash dishes, half filled with
Croton water, in the centre of which were
floating two bits of castile soap. He held
them while the confused Britons washed
their hands, when he told them to dry them
on his apron, as the towels were on rollers
and could not be brought to the table.”
Episcopal Church in Virginia Op
pose n to Ritualism. —lu the State Council
of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the
State of Virginia ou Saturday, the special
committee to which was referred so much
of the bishop’s address as relates to inno
vations in the doctrine and worship of the
Protestant Episcopal Clnireli submitted a
report and resolutions. The report says
that “ these innovations which the bishop
asks the council to consider, as the \yord
imports, are comparatively of recent origin,
and that the present reaction toward
Romanism, in which they have culminated,
does not date further back than the year
1835.” The report concludes with tl\e sen
timent that “ it is manifestly proper that
any expression of opinion or protest on the
part of the council- should be accompanied
by a plain statement of the false doctrines
or unlawful practices brought, into the
church against which such opinion may be
expressed or protest entered.” This state
ment is given at length against the use of
the term priest; against the substitution
of baptism for faith; agaiust the doctrine
and use of the term “ real presence,” which
differs in no material respect from tran
substautiation; against the “ use of a multi
tude of unauthorized aud superstitious
ceremonies” in worship “ which were oast
oft'or prohibited at the reformation, and
finally against the “ Romish reaction and
tidal movement tending to a more volumi
nous exterualiaift” &c.
Two Boys Torn to Pieces by a Pan
ther. —A man living in Taney countv,
Mo., recently sent his boy to mill, a dis
tance of ten or twelve miles, aud, the boy
not returning as soon as usual, a neighbor
sent his boy to see what had become of the
lad, and the second boy not returning in
due season, a party consisting of the pa
rents of the Jtioys and three or four other
men, all armed, started to search for tiie
youths. After traveling some four miles, a
sight sufficient to chill the blood of the
bravest was presented to their view.—
Right by the side ot the road was a large
panther deliberately tearing the flesh from
the remains of one of the boys—the last
sent out. The grief and horrow-stricken
parent raised his gun to his shoulder, and,
taking good aim, fired and killed the feta
cions beast. Bfter searching a mile or so
more, the m titillated remains of the other
boy weye also faunq. —Courier Journal,

KSTWE WISH TO CALL THE ATTENTION OF
our readers to the advertisement beaded the Six Great
est Remedies of the Age. Read this column and see the
genuine certificates from reliable person* ; more would
be added if there was room. Hcrly’B Aquk Tonic is a
never failing cure for any case of Chills and Fever or Fe
ver and Ague if used by directions. Hurly's Popular
Worm Candy is the beat fur children known. Also
Hurly’s Sarsaparilla is the purest and best made, and
hone equals it for impurities of the blood or renovating
the system from whatever cause. Hurly’s Stomach
Bittkrs need only be tried to become the most popular
Bitter known, it is also pleasant as a beverage and con
ducive to health. Dr. Skabrook’s Infant Soothing
Syrup, w* are told by those that have used it, is better
than any other that they ever tried. Dr. Skabrook’s
Elixir of Iron and Bark is the most pleasant and re
liable remedy of the kind before the public, and good
effects can be relied on being produced from using it in
all cases when recommended. Read the advertisement

Six Great Remedies
OF THE AGE.
PURIFY YOUR BLOOD
HSfiIEY’S SARSAPARILLA.
o F ALL the remedies that have been discover
ed duping the present age for the “ thousand ills that
flesh is heir to,” .none equal this wonderful prepara
tion'.. Only 16 years have elapsed since the discover-,
or (who spent a decade in studying, experimenting
uud pegfectlftg it,) first introduced it to the
and it is already recbgnizdd by the most eminent phy
siciahs in all parts of the country to Iks the most sur
prising and effective remedy for certain diseases of
which they bave knowledge.
-All other Compounds or Syrups of this Hoot have
hitherto failed to command the sanction of the Facul
ty, because, oftfbelng tested, they have been founl to
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the
good effects of the Harsaparil a, and oftentimes injure
the hea th of the patient. It is not so with Hurley’s
preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract of the root, and
will, on trial, be found to effect a certain and perfect
cure of the following complaints :
Affection* of the Bones, Habitual Cbstlve
ness, Debility, Diseases of the Kid
neys Dispepsta, Krysipelts, Keoiale
Irregularities. Fistula, all skin
Diseases, Liver Complaint,
Indigestion, Pil s, Pul
monary Diseases, Scro
fula, or Kind’s Kvil,
Syphilis, and all
lmpuritii sos
the B ood.
Hurley’s Ague Tonic.
s'
PE ItFECTL YfRELI ABLE.
/ s
The only rom-dy for Chills and Fever, or Ague and
Fever, that is or can lie depended upon is HUB
LEY’S AGUE TONIC. There have been thousands
cured by using it who have tried the usual remedies
without benefit.
WORTHY OF ATTENTION.
To Dr. That. A. HurUy:
I hereby certify that during last year 1 was at’ack
ed with the Ague whilst in Vickßburg, Mis*, .and
used several popular medicines with but temporary
relief. On reaching home the and sease returned In a
worse type, if possible, when my medical attendant
ordered Quinine in large doses—frequently ns high as
60 grains per day, and which must bave cost me near
ly SIOO. I cqnsulted Dr. Smith, oi Louisville, and
found he prescribed quinine and arsenic combined,
which I refused to take, preferring to let the disease
take its course. I was almost bloodlese, extremely
exhausted, and pronounced with enlarged Liver and
Hp een. About this time the advertisement of Hur
ley’s Ague Tonic appeared in a city paper, and 1 de
termined 'to give it atrial. 1 did so, and have no rea
son to regret it. One bottle restored me completely,
and since that time I have seen ricjply a hundred
cases in which it acted with equally happy results,
and would certainly recommend it as preferable to
any other tonic before the public.
JAMES MARTIN, Engineer.

IIURLKY’S
Popular Worm Candy.
As this is really a specific for Worms, and the best
and most palatablo form to give to children, it is not
surprising that ft is fast taking.tile place of all other
preparations for worms—it being perfectly tasteless,
and any child will take it.
NOTICE TO MOTHERS.
DR. SEABROOK’S
Infant Soothing Syrup.
Use in the future only SKABROOK’S, a combina
tion quite up witli the advancement of the age.—
Pleasant to take, harmless in its action, efficient and
reliuble in all cases. Invaluable in the following dis
eases :
SUMMER COMPLAINTS, IRREGULARITIES

When living in v»ur city I used several bottles of
DR. HKABIiOOIf’S INFANT SOOTHING SYR
UP, and found it to do my child more good, audit
would rest better after using it, than any other reme
dy I ever tried. X can say with confidence, it is the
best medicine for children at present known. I wisli
you would get the Druggists nere to keep it. If any
one does, please let me know; if not, send me one
dozen by express, and 1 will pay for it at the oflice
here. Write me when vou send it and oblige

JAMES RUDDLE A (JO.,
Proprietors, Louisville, Ky.
To Jas. ltuddle <S Cos., Louisville, Ky.:
Gkntlkmen: This is to certify that I have been
tor years a sufferer, and have tried all the Tonies I
have heard of or seen advertised, with little or no re
lief from any of them. I heard your Hurley Bitters
highly spoken of, and tried a bottle, with little faith
in it before I commenced, and to my surprise and
joy, before I finished one bottle, I felt a great deal
1 letter, and firmly believe that on one or two occasions
it was the means of saving and prolonging my liie. I
conscientiously recommend them to a'l sufferers as
the best Uiuera known, and advise tnem always to a-k
lor Dr. T. A. Hurley’s, and haw no oilier. You can
use this as you thintv proper, if it will benefit others.
Yours, truly, Ac.,

This elegant combination possesses all the "tonic
Sroficrtles of Peruvian Bark and Iron, without the

PhE ENTIRE CAPITAL OF THIS COMPANY has been furnished by citizens of Vir
ginia and Georgia.
It is estimated that over TEN MILLIONS OF DOLLARS are now annually sent North for
LIFE INSURANCE, every dollar of which takes so much from Southern vitality. Henceforth
let us keep our investments at. home, and we will again assert and maintain our supremacy. This
BRANCH OFFICE oilers all inducements for Lite Insurance of a perfect Home Office, with
these advantages : The Capital is furnished, the expenso of commencing operations has been
incurred, tli “success, beyond perad venture, is established, and the whole Capital and Assets of
the Home Company stand committed to sustain it.
The entire management of the Piedmont is in the hands of Southern men, and its aim is to
sustaiu Southern interests. Why, then, should Southern men place their money and the inter
ests of their wives and children in the hands of Northern men, who, you know, do not. love yon, and
who have proved that they do not desire your prosperity, and WHOSE CHARTERS FORB ID THE
INVESTMENT OF ONE CENT FOR YOUR BENEFIT?
THE PIEDMONT is not only a thorough’y Southern Company, but pledges itself to invest
all funds accruing in Georgia, within the State, under the direction of Georgia gentlemen, in
whose integrity von must have entire confidence.
THE PI EDMONT gives 87% per cent, of net. profits to her Policy holders ; issues Gold Poli
cies to those who prefer to pay in Gold, or at Gold standard ; has already declared 40 per cent,
dividend on all of its Life Policies, and, in short, offers all advantages that Southern men could
ask. We, therefore, confidently appeal to Southern men to sustain an established and perma
nent institution ol their own, and we cannot doubt the results.
THE PIEDMONT claims to be equal in the privileges and benefits granted its patrons, to any.
other Company, surpassed by none, and snnerior to many, and only requests parties wishing to in
sure not to do so until they have examined the merits of this established Southern Company.
