Thomas S. Brew, elected Governor.of Arkansas, 
hi 13W and again In ihbo. died recently In Texas. 
The claimant for the Arlington estate, George 
Washington Cuatta Lee, fcldst son of the late Gene¬ 
ral Robert E Leo, docs not propose to remove the 
dead soldiers' oodles therefrom, bttt simply wants 
the fair value of the property. Mr. Lee Is a tall, 
handsome man, apparently about thirty-live years 
old. 
Senator Butler, who returned from South Car¬ 
olina week berore last, says that he rode with Gov. 
—Senator -Hampton for two hours on the Satur¬ 
day Ijefore. The Governor Is rather low-spirited, 
Out his physical condition continues favorable. 
It is probable that another amputation of the leg 
bone will be necessary, as the flesh has receded 
anil the wound cannot heal over In its present 
condition, senator — Governor — Hampton says 
that he suffers more from the old bullet wound in 
bis hip than from the amputation.

Mr. N B. PiiEi.rs, — Dour Sir. Wo are pleased

remedies for that disease, and find thai it gives 
good satisfaction.

Members of my family lmvo used your Non-

for it. H e surely should not know how to do 
without if.

the Norwboi AN Balm my wife suffered t. u, old 
misery far years. WusOUglit medical aid, fur 
and near, but to no effect. Our regular 1’hysie 
ian, distinguished for his kiiowh-dge, skill and 
honesty, pronounced tb<- disease incurable: that 
it would extend from the nasal organs to the 
throat and bronchial tubes, and finally to the 
lungs—and that deal U would be the result at no 
distent day. This was well nigh tho euse. But in 
your Norwegian Balm she found immediate 
relief; the extremely offensive odor of her 
breath, from which she laid suffered so many 
years entirely disappeared within two weeks 
ifter she commenced to use the Balm. After 
having used only one bottle, if not fully cured, 
she feels well on’tho way
