Congress has just "reconstructed'
seven States. According to their own
theory, thAe States, being thus rehabil

with all other members of the Union,

rights. If this reconstruction has any
value whatever, it should have been I'M

But what has been done in these anc

from the 10th Of July, thus saddling thu
taxpayers with fifteen or twenty millions
of additional burden. Then, in order te

Pittsburgh: M
SIR. take great pleasure in stating that,
after having suffered from dyspepsia for about
fifteen years, at some periods much more than
others, have been entirely cured by the use
Of Goes Dyspepsia Cure. My friends know
that of late years my case has been an ex-
treme one. had great suffering from eating
any kind of food, aud on an average would
vomit about one, third of my meals, In sour,
indigestible mass. When the severe attacks
would come. would lose all strength and be
utterly helpless. Some of the attacks would
be so sewers that for days together would
not retain anything on my stomach, save a
little dry toast and tea. For years knew not
what it vas to pass five consecutive hours
without intense pain. From the time took
the first dose of this medicine ceased vomi-
ting, gradually all soreness passed away, and
Heeh and strength returned, and ever since
have been able to eat any kind of food set
upon the table. Six months have now passed
without any symptoms of the return of the
disease, My case was considered by all, even
physicians, so marvellous, that for time it
was feared it mightb be fictitious; but am new
90 we'll convinced, that have been not mere
ly relieved, but permanently cured, that can
oonseientiously recommend Goes Dyspepsia
Cure, to all victims of Dyspepsia.
