which constitute disease !; a great cry went
up from those interested in the continued
supremacy of the old system of one poison to
cure another. All of the empyrics joined in
the chorus, and in their ignorance laughed at
the new system, circulating base stories of its
ill-success, and quoting imaginary cases as
proofs. Time has demonstrated their dis
honesty. After five years of uninterrupted
success the Electropathic system is the lead
ing idea in medical jurisprudence, while by
the old system, physicians were content to
cure one in every five cases. there, were those
who were diving deep into the science of the
curative art among these were the Electro
pathists; finally, it was discovered that the
failure in most of the cases of organic dis
ease, was entirely due to the machine. TAX
ing this view of the case. DR.. J. H. Josselyn,
after years of experiment, has perfected an
Electropathic Instrument, which will cure any
disease which flesh is heir, always to be un-
derstood that the case is not so far advanced
as to show destruction of the vital tissues.
We do not claim that the use of medicines

perform cure much sooner than without,

imparting health and strength to all who are
so fortunate as to obtain its services. Dis

What did the soldiers of the Union ar

asks that question. We will cry to answer
it in few plain words
When the flag, the symbol Of the Union
as formed by our fathers under the Con-
stitution, was fired upon at Sumpter, thou
sands of brave men rushed to arms. For
what. Was it to free the negroes? Let
the Radical Disuniorists tell the returned
veterans that, if they dare
When President Lincoln issued his pro
clamation freeing the slaves what was the
ground on winch lie prolessed to stand
Was not the act justified because it was
believed soldiers fought for restoration of
the Union under the Constitution. That
was the one great, grand, holy object
which they kept singly in view. They
did not fight to conquer equal rights for
the negro, and in the elections they will
show their scorn of that political party
which would delay the restoration of the
Union until the odious condition of negro
suffrage and negro equality are forced up
on an unwilling people. The soldiers read
and think for themselve now They
cannot and will not vote with any party
which makes the Union for which they
fought subordinate to negro equality. The
soldiers fought for the Union, not for the
negro and they will vote as they shot.
