vegetable preventive and restorative that has
its way to the confidence of the public and the medi
cal profession by quarter of q century of unvary-
ing success, stands pre-eminent among them all.

a twice told tale. 1t is only necessary to consult
the records Of the United States Revenue Depart

that of any other proprietary remedy of either native

A correspondent of the New York Euening
Mail, who recently visited our city en- route to
Nova Scotia, writes to that Province as follows
of"Portland as Phpnix" "a day in this beau
tiful city served to show us ample evidence of
the energy of its people, who, in three years,
have SO Obliterated the tokens of the great fire
as to make it a marvel thot it ever was. That
fire has done more good to Portland than ten
years of its former existence could have ac-
complisbed. On the ruins of half the city,
representing destruction of 10000, 900 in
value, are built elegant stores and graceful res
licences, whose tasty Mansard roofs delight the
eye, and whose architectural beauty and new
ness make this one of the most charming cities
in the country. Then, too, the sudden and
baleful disaster has acted but as a stimulant to
enterprise, and to-day Portland promises,
with its new railroad to Ogdensburg through
the Notch in the White Mountains, its coming
communication with Great Britain, and its
manufactures OF iron, kerosene oil, glass, and
other important commodities, to become for
New England what Boston was once, and

left gold ring on the wash-stand. The next

that he left it there, and discovered that large
