THE DELEGATE CONVENTION

Met in this place on Monday last, and
the Bank Junto succeeded through trickery,
bribery and lreachery, in nominating Will
liam Colt, ever the Democratic Anti. Bank
candidate, Daniel Snyder, by two votes.-
Upon the assembling Of the delegates in the
morning it was ascertained, that a majority
of them were either instructed for. or were
elected expressly TO sustain, Daniel SNYDER.
Such being the fact, the Bank Junto became
satisfied that they could not procure the
nomination of their man by fair means ,ihey.
therefore, resored 10 all the measures in
their power TO effect their object. Tricke.
'ry, bribery and treachery, were set on foot

and Bank advocates to sustain their friends

out of the Berwick Letting and the various
officers 10 be appointed, and elected in the

The name of these pills originated from the cir
cumstance OF the medicine being found only in tho
cemetarles OF Persia. This vegetable production
being of peculiar kind, led TO experiments rs +,
ta medicinal qualities and virtues. In half cen
tury 1t became an established medicine for the dis
eases OF that country. The extract of this sinpu
reproduction was introduced into some parts of Eu
rope IN the year 1885, and used by many celebrated
fhysicans III curing certain Diseases where all 9TH
er medicine has been used in vain Early in the
year 1892, the extract was combined with certain
vegetable medicine imported from Dura Baca. in

use Their long established character their univer
sal and healing virtues the detergent and cleansing
qualities OF their specific action upon the gandular
part of the system, are such as will sustain their re-

lie.
