My reply was, I had ao cqi)-fidence in patent nostrums. 1 told you of a hurt 1 received eleven years sinyc, that had not been relieved, but was increasing wilh age. You then presented me with a bottle of this liniment.

1 took it through courtesy to yon. A week after I got home I concluded to use it I applied it twice each day for two weeks. Since that time I have felt no pain, but feel at well as I did twenty years ago. The bottle of liniment has been worth more to me than the bottle filled with gold would have been. I recommend the liniment to all who I find suffering with pains from strains, bruises, rheumatism, or any other cause whatever.

It recommends itself wherever sold. 1 am, dear sirs, yours, etc. S. J. Waoi.kt.

The bridge on the Orange and Alex andria' which trossesi James river a short distance above Lynchburg, was completed last Monday, and the trains passed over it for the first time since the lute flood.

The completion of this bridie restores the connection of all the railroads wittf the lit, the Southside and Tennessee roads having been com pleted a few days since. The numerous friends of Dr. Frank A.

He contem plates a withdrawal from Memphis for a few months, and in the interests of those for whom he has labored in this city, he solicited Dr.

J. Jos. Williams for a part nership. Those who know both parties will commend Dr. judgment in placing such a man in a position where I)r.

But an incident of this week recalls yividly. the time, when Judge Hunter sat on the bench of the little dark court-room, back" of the old Post-offioe Building, end issued his decrees like an absolute 1 1 emperor, anu was as immovaum opinions as a man of iron. When 'he made his mind, it could not be changed by friend or foe; or wrongi he stood by himself, a remark able man, honest, but not faultier) Many reminiscences of his court, intimately blended with the history of Memphis during the period of uncertain jus tice and certain chaos of society, might be, revived by reference to newspaper.

One day this week a benevolent sociot rented the dingy, dark old court-room, which is adjacent to the defunct Mem phis Literary Association rooms, for, the purpose of giving a ball. Sofne men were sent to clean out the room aud put it in order for a scene of unrestrained festivity and enjoyment, and make 4t fit place for music, mirth, beauty, dancing and courting; for waltzing, coouettin and dress- display!
