the bridge upon which they were stand

drowned. Alady becoming terrified at
the freshet, was drowned by imprudent-

Well Attested Cure Of CatarrI.

w u VI ~
DIR. a. p. LIGHTHILL-DEAR SR:-Your
treatment in the cure of my CatarTh has had
the desired effect and resulted in permanent
good TO me, although my case has frequently
been pronounced incurable, and had exhaust
ed all other modes of treatment, without the
least benefit. Ny case was 80 chronic and
troublesome, that by giving few of the symp
toms the value of your treatment can be more
readily estimated. For years had been atiict-
ed with n constant cold in the head obstructing
my breathing as to necessitate me to keep my
mouth open duriHs sleep latterly. the discharges
became solicited and impacted in my nose TO
such an extent that it required the greatest ex-
ertion to e1pel them. Sometimes these hard.
ened Jumps would get in my throat, causing me
to hawk and scrspe even by the hour to relieve
myself. Ny breath was offensive my memory
became impaired Dizziness and light headi-
ness made their appearance. and Of late symp.
toms of paralysis stepped in, and when placed
myself under your care one side of my face was
badly affected by this dread disease. Ny gen
eral health suffered alike, there was a constant
tired, drowsy and debilitated feeling, with no
energy TO move or act; felt as tired on rising
in the morning as did on going TO my bed, my
appetite was capricieus and my disposition
mOrose In that condition placed myself I'M
der your care, and am happy to state that all
those dissgreeable and dangerous symptoms
have entirely left me- and once more enjoy the
benefits OF good health.
By giving this publicity you will benefit
others similarly affected and oblige me.
Yours truly, JAMES SOMMERVILLE,
BrookyiI, JEFFERSON county.

State Senate in the Botetourt district upon
this platform :EE7To9 10 TzIL g-Iaq
As" am satisfied, that it is folly longer to
resist reconstruction on. the congressional
plan, and think, therefore, that we, should
not waste our energies on a hopeless cause,
but devote them to efforts that will produce
good. I think it advisable, by accepting
the constitution, to unite with all good men
to strike out the obnoxious clauses. This
we can do. But if we resist all compro-
mise, We will inevitably have all evil forced
upon u5. -' .' ~.
'tIf elected to the Senate, I shall also
vote for the fifteenth amendment to the Con-
stitution Of the United States, for the rea-
son that it will give greater surface for
this given amount of evil to spresd itself,
and therefore make it less severe in its
effects upon us and also for the additional
reason that ! believe it will eventually rid
us entirely Of the whole evil; for then the
whole country, suffering the same curse,
will unite to remove it" il.

pre.ence Of the State Journal would then
have semblence Of reason and force. But
nothing of the kind is attempted. The Con-
servstives declare their readiness to ratify
the constitution, universal negro suffrage
and all, subject only to the expurgatiou, by
separate votes, of, the, harsh and unneces-
sary provisions which General Scho-
field denounced as abominations, and
to which General gGrantIEis known to
be opposed. They are further prepared
to take the Walker ticket as il is,
and to strive for it's success. With the
motives that dictate this course we have at
present nothing to do. We. see anly will
ipgness to cooperate in manner which
seems likely to secure the ratification Of
the constitution freed from offensive pro-
visions, and the election Of Republican
government for the State. More than this
1t would not be proper to- exact. !, For with
such constitution as the success of the
Walker policy implies, every essential re-
quirement oftthe reconstruction acts will
be realized, and the State will be qualified
for restoration on Q basis to which only
malignant and selfish schemers can object.
