Blood, Blood, Out I Saw

A NLEANSE out these perilous spots, pim-
~ pies, corrupt sores, which pollute the
NE OF the blood, and render your body q
loathesome thing. They are the precur-
sors Of diseased blood, and will assume
much more formidable shape if allowed
to go on unchecked. The QUEENS DE-
LIGHT, the only real blood purifier that
has ever been invented, as thousands will
to-day attest, is offered to the afflicted as
a positive remedy for all diseases flowing
from vitiated condition of the syatem.
THE LIFE OF THE FLESH is PURE
BLOOD. Upon this theory alone the in
ventor of the Queens Delight establishes
the great hygienic law, WITHOUT PURE
BLOOD NO FLESH Is FREE FROM DIS
EASE. The Pale and Shrunken Forms,
Livers, Crippled Rheumatics' Nervous
Hypochondriacs, Dyspeptic Victims of
Headache, 80 common in this country, is
owing entirely to the humors of the blood.
Very many other diseases may be traced to
bad blood, Scrofula or Kings Evil, Erysi-
pelas, Exauthema or Elevure, a rash or
eruption on females; Blotches, letter,
Goitre or Swelled Neck, Syphilis and Sy,,
philitic Sores, Strumous Ulcers, &c.
These cannot be cured without purifying
the blood. Now as to the remedy. There
is no other blood purifier that will accom-
plish such positive and extraordinary cures
as Heinitshs Queens Delight. You may
IL,
still YOU will not be cured; and, as a proof
of it, look around and you will observe the
country, throughout its length and
breadth, is flooded with compound Sarsa-
parillas, extracts and syrups, claiming to
be blood purifiers, and yet we see to-day
moro evidence OF impurity of the blood
than ever. Why is this? Simply because
these extracts and Sarsaparillas are worth
less medicines.
The Queens Delight is new comDound
and ID now the great blood medicine; sane.
toned by the profession, patropized by the
highest dignitaries or the land, endorsed
by everybody.
In the brief period OF twelve months.
over 5000 cases have been treated so sue
cessfully as to entito it to be the wonder
of the age.
For debility, prostration, nervousness
mental depression, impaired Digestion
loss OF appetite, restlcsness, want of vital
force. Low spirits; it is more invigorat-
ing and strengthening than all the COM
pounds of bark or bitters. AS liver
invigorator, it is of inestmable value. AS
stimulant, it is safer and surer than all
the rum and whiskey tonics of the day,
and if you value your life and health a
pins fee, avoid these quickening stimu-
Delight. Ask for Heinitsh's Queens De-
light. This is not the Extract of Stellin-
gia or Queens Delight, nor is it Com
pound Syrup of Queens Delight, or Sarsa-
parilla and Queens Delight, but simply
Heinitsh's Queens Delight is the trade
mark. Ask for this if you want to be
cured, and see that the name of L. II.
Heinitsh is on the wrapper.
Prepared only by L. II. Neinitsh.

TIE RIcHMoND PRESS ON THE
ELECTIONS.

The Richmond DispatcA of yesterday say:
"We conjecture that there will be nov no
very vigorous light over the Presidential cleo
tion. The defeated party will hardly coatiu ne
the contest It's Clearly without hope. That
inc canvass has been most wretc hedly mismhn-
aged 10 indisputabIe. The nomination made by
the Democras WAS the worst they could have
msde out OF tne list of leading aspirants they
nso before them. There were two altern stives
before the New York Convention-vIz., TO
nominate man with a view to his election, or
10 nominate one wholly upon prin ciple Cnase
would have done for the first; PendIeton or
Hendricks for the second. But the Con veption
avoided both. and nominated q friend of Chase.
VINO had not (Chases) power, and who yet
the principles avowed by the Convention; there
fore there has been a tail between two stools
The Hhtg also considers the result as foreshad-
owing quite distinctly the result of the Presi-
dental election, and views it as another tri-
umph of the sword, but don't care. 1t Says
"ln view OF the mIschiets which have been
epgenderea by violated faith, by war, and by
the W spread dishonesty which pervades
the public service, II As very dou bttul If any
other government b' practicable IN this demon
ailZed land but a vigorous and impartial des-
potIsm. Ii the choice of the despotIsm be left
To Us, TOR many reasons we should prefer that
