distributed to all the citizens free.

N. I. Thatcher.
Almost from the first, Mr. Thatcher
has been closely identified with the
business interests of our city, and the
rectnt intelligence of his death, in
Texas, whither he had gone in the
vain hope of regaining health, produc
ed a marked sensation among our peo
ple. Enterprising, sagacious and reso
lute, he seldom made a mistake in his
business; and, if he did, he did not
stop to mourn over it, but, by redoub
led efforts, speedily even more than
regained the lost ground.
For some time past, he had been he
roically battling with an insidious
disease, that had long been seated in
his system. Our climate was favora
ble had he but been as favorable to
himself: But he could not refrain
from the stirring arena of business
life resolutely refusing to yield, until
resolution could avail him no longer,
aHd his undermined system gave way
to a power that was stonger than auy
human -organism.
He will be greatly missed in our
business life no one could be more so.

It is the very best article for spavins,

we ever used. We would not be with

An Ex-Consul's Story.
To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle :
, A lato United States Consul at one
of the English inland ports, who is
now a private resident of New York,
relates the following interesting story.,
lie objects, for private reasons, to
having his name published, but auth
orizes the writer to substantiate his
statement, and, if uecessarv, to refer
to him, in his private capacity, auy
person seeking such reference. De
terring to his wishes, I hereby present
his statement in almost the exact lan
guage in which he gave it to me,
CM. Farmer,
1 090 Third avenue, New York.
" "On my last voyage home from Eng
land, some three years ago, in one of
the Cunaul steamers, I noticed one
morning, after a few days out of port,
a young man hobbling about on the
upper deck, supported by crutches and
seeming to move with extreme difficul
ty and no little pain. He was well
dressed and of exceedingly handsome
countenance, but his limbs were some
what emaciated and his face very sal
low and bore the traces of long suffer
ing. As he seemed to have no atten
dant or companion, he at once attract
ed my sympathies, and I went up to
him as he leaned against the taffrail
looking out ons the foaming track
which the steamer was making.
'Excuse me, my young friend.' I
said, touching hiui gently on the
shoulder, 'you appear to be an invalid
and hardly able or strong enough to
trust yourself unattended on an ocean
voyage; but if you require any assis
tance 1 am a robust aud healtny man
and shall be glad to help you.'
" 'You are very kind.' he replied, in
a weak voice, 'but I require no present
aid beyond my crutches, which enable
me to pass from my stateroom up here
to get the benefit of the sunshine and
the sea breeze.' xl
" 'You have been a great sufferer,
no doubt,' I sa d, 'and I judge that you
have been affiicted with that most
troublesome disease rheumatism,
whose prevalence aud intensity seem
to be on an alarming increase both in
England and America.'
"'You are right, he answered; l
have been its victim for more than a
year, and after failing to find lelief
from medical skill hne lately tried
the Springs of Carlsbad nd Vichy.
But they have done me no good, and I
am now on my return home to Mis
souri to die, I suppose. I shall be con
tent if life is spared to ine to reach
wy mother's presence. She is a widow
and I am her ouly child.' . '
"There was a pathos in this speech
which affected ine profoundly and
awakened in me .a deeper sympathy
than I had felt before. I hs.d no
words to answer him, and stood silent
ly besido him watching the snowy
wake of the ship. While thus stand
ing my thoughts reverted to a child a
ten year old boy of a neighbor of
mine residing near my consulate resi
dence, who had been cured of a stub
born case of rheumatism by the use of
St. Jacobs Oil, and I remembered that
the steward of the ship had told me
the day before that he had cured him
self of a very severe attack of the gout
in New York just before his last voy
age by the use of the same remedy. I
at once left my young friend and went
below to find the steward. I not only
found him off' duty, but discovered
that he had a bottle of the Oil in his
locker, which he had carried across
the ocean in cass f another attack.
He readily parted with it on my
representation, and hurrying up again,
I soon persuaded the young man to
allow me to take him to his berth and
apply tho remedy. After doing so I
covered him up snugly in bed and re
quested him not to get up until I
should see him again. That evening I
returned to his .stateroom and found
urn sleeping peacefully and breathing
gently. I roused him and inquired
how he felt. 'Like a new man,' ho
answered with a grateful smile. I
feel no pain ami am able to stretch
rav limbs without difficulty. I think
I'll get up.' No, don't get up to-night,
I said, 'but 'et me rub you again with
the Oil, and in the morning you will
be able to go above.' 'Alt right-,' he
said, laughing. - '! then applied the
Oil again, rubbing his knees, ankle3
and arms thoroughly; until he said he
felt as it he had a mustard poultice all
over his body. I then left him. The
next morning when I went upon deck
for a breezy promenade, according to
my custom, I found my patient wait
ing for me with a smiling face, and
without his crutches, although he
limped in his movements, but without
pain. I don't think I every felt eo
happy in my life. To make a long
story short, I attended Lim closely
during the rest of the voyage -some
four days applying the Oil every
night, and guarding him against -too
much exposure to the fresh and damp
breezes, and on landing at New York,
he was able, without assistance, to
mount the betel omnibus, and go to
the Asfor House. I called on him two
days later, and found hin actually en
gaged in packing his trunk, prepara
tory to starting West for his home,
that evening. AVith a bright and
grateful smile he welcomed me, and
pointing to a little box carefully dona
up in thick brown paper, which stood
upon the table he said: 'My good
friend, can you guess what that isV
A present for your sweetheart,'" I an
swered. "No," lie laughed 'that is a
dozen bottles of St. Jacobs Oil, which
I have just purchased from Iludnut,
the druggist, across the way, and I am
taking them home to show my good
mother what has saved her son's life
and restored him to her in health.
And with it I would like to carry you
along also, to show her the face of him,
without whom, I should probably nev
er have tried it. If you should ever
visit the little village of Sedalia, ii.
Missouri, Charlie Townsend and his
mother will welcome you to their lit
tle home, with hearts full of gratitude,
and thev will show you a bottle of St.
Jacobs Oil enshrined in a silver and
and gold casket, which we shall keep
as a parlor ornament as well as
memento of our meeting on the Can
ard steamer.
" 'AVe parted, after an hom's pleas
ant chat with mutual good-will and
esteem, and a few weeks afterwards I
received a letter from him telling me
he was in perfect health and contain
ing many graceful expressions of his
affectionate regards." Brooklyn Ea
gle. A.O. Ashley is doing some fine
lettering in Weckbach's store; and by
the way, Mr. Ashley is immense at
that kind of WQik, and v. e should
judge by the l.twks of a good many of
our merchant's-windows that his wont
is appreciated.
