will leave for the penitenti;
brother-in-law, Thomas Ward,
nam county, was the main witness, and
his evidence is substantially as follows:
Owens married Mai iah Ward in 1678
and deserted her .about two years ago.
He left her with six children, but occa
sionally sent her money. After lie had
been in Cordele some time, a friend
wrote Mrs. Owens that ho (Owens) was
dead, and returned his trunk and other
tilings which belonged to him. This
happened after he became engaged to
Miss Leila Morton. Mr. Ward had with
him a certified copy of the marriage
from the ordinary of Jasper county, and
.also had a picture of Owens. Owens
still denies the truth of his former mar
riage, and says it is a trumped up affair.
Everyone here sympathizes deeply with
the young lady .and her family, but are
indignant with Owens.
Miss Morton is still in Anniston, and
intends remaining there, so Madame
Rumor says.

k Certain Cure for Dyspepsia.
There is perhaps no disease so prevalent as
Dyspepsia and indigestion, and one too, that up
to the present time has bailled the skill of the
most eminent physicians. Two-thirds of the
chronic diseases have their origin in Dyspepsia.
The symptoms are loss of appetite, loss of flesh,
a feeling of fulness or weight in the stomach,
occasionally nausea and vomiting, acidity, flatu
lence, dull pain in the head, with a sensation of
heaviness or giddiness, irregularity of bowels,
low spirits, sleeplessness, sallow skin,, derange-
