challenge the world TO show more successful
triumph. There have been over TWENTY FIVE
THOUSAND consultations, and nearly TWENI
THOUSAND contracts made, with only eleven
failures to cure; lin those eases the fee was re-

The doctor makes it his study to help suffering
humanity without regard to the amount of money
the patient may be able to pay. His remedies
are mild and gentle in their action They are
entirely free from all mineral poisons or any
substance that can possibly injure the most deli

the REF ORMED or ELECTROPATHIC system,
by which one half ofthe diseases in the catalogue
can be cured without medicines.
IN ALL CASES HE WARRANTS A CURE or

To those afflicted with unmentionable com
plants, the Doctor would say that he can cure
the worst possible case in very short time, with

Resolutions Adopted by the
Democratic State COnVcn-
ton of West Virginia.

|. Resolved, That we approve the platform OF
| the National Democratic Convention lately as
sembled in New York, as the true exponent OF
our political principles and pledge our hearty
and united support to the nominees of that
Convention for the offices of President and Vice
President of the United States.
,. ReSOlred That we demand of the Legisla.
ture of this State i reduction of the useless
swarm of officers with which we are infested,
and such other measures of economy. retreneh.
ment and reform as will reduce the burthen OF
State and local taxation, which is exhausting
the substance of our people.
3. ReSOlUed, That we demand the reform OF
the present system of registration unjust,
oppressive upon the people, and at variance
with the fundamental principles of free govern
ment.
l. Resolved That we denounce the Radical
party of this State, because, with a view of
perpetuating their own power, they have re.
fused to permit the people to elect their own
Registers. and have vested the power of appoint.
ment and removal in the Governor, so that the
INSCRIPTIONS purposes cf the party may be bet
ter accomplished: and because. with the same
view, they have by recent legislation relieved
their Registers thus unfairly and improperly
elected from either civil or criminal response
bility for even willfIl and corrupt violation OF
duty.
5. Rcsolred, That while we are willing to &C.
cord to the negro the full measure of legal
rights with ample protection of person and
property, we are unalterably opposed to negro
suffrage, negro equality, and Radical legislation
looking 10 that end.
6. ResOlued, That we denounce the Radical
party for having, through its representatives, in
Congress, by the passage of certain military re-
construction bills, declared null and void the
Government Of Virginia, which formed the
State of West Virginia. thereby denying the
legal existence of our new State.
