VIZ, tho Democrats and Conservatives
Of Jane Lew Township. assembled in
Township mass meeting, desire & tho har-
mony and unity Of all Democrats and
Conservatives in putting down alltho
doctrines and risms that are leading to
the destruction of this once free and
Democratic Government. Therefore belt
Resoloed, That VIC endorse the sStato
platform made by tho State Convention
held in Charleston on : The Sthi Of June,
1870; aud that. we ore 4 opposed TO PC
knowledgiDg that We 4fsrass negro suf.
fage and negro eqgaiity; We still con-
tend thsss'this.is white mans Govern

be restored to their rights, as vo believe
such a course 70 be just and right and
will further tho best interests, Of the
State. :s5i;,s 6ar r9,.3,;, ~. d lgs
Resolred, That the doctrine Of voting
for granting to. the negro the right Of
suffrage, so as to enable the disfranchised
whites to vote. is not only degrading to
those who are. enfranchisod, but it cro-
ates the impression that the rebel and
the negro do and should stand alike. In
thiSNe believe it will do great injustice
to our disfranchised citizens and
we oppose oil measurcs-State or FEEDER
al-which have tendency to lower the
white race. ir II
Resolved, That We oppose the Flick
Amendment, and will not support any
candidate to represent us in the next
Legislature who favors that measure; rs
the said Amendment endorses and nd.
mits Of negro suffrage and The right Of
tie negro to hold Office. ssi

WHAT VINUM VITE.

This wine 10 prepared to take the place of
Whiskey and other spirits known to be made up
of Fusil Oil aud o. her deleterious articles. The
Wine of Life Is distilled with great care. espec-
tally for those who require . healthy stimulant,
and for the use of Medical Men and Nurses in
the sick room, in place of the villsinous Brandy,
Whiskey, and other Liquors now in use, and so
often depended upon. In fact, 1T is a constant
complaint OF Physicians in this country. that is
is impossible to procure Brands, Whisky and
Wine for their patients. We ask the Medi-
cal faculty and the public to give Warmers Vim
um Vita or Wine Of Life trial, and we ask
chemists AMI ply cians to analyze it, then speak
of 1t according TO ITS merits, compare 1t with
Whisky, Brandy and other such articles, and
see the difference. If they find the Wine of Life
10 pure and wholesome, and the other Liquor.
poisonous. (Which they certainly will do,) then
they are morally bound to prescribe and recon-
mend the Wine of Life to their patients and
friends as the best stimulant and tonic in use,
an as a valuable substitute for hickey and
Brandy; but should they find it not pure and
what I be proprietors c aim for il, let them pub
Iicl' denounee it. IL is the Physicians duty to
learn and find out which is the most wholesome
stinulant for his patients, and to do go he must
examine and look into the quality of each article.
and learn for himself the Wine of Life has any
peculiar merits TO warrant its general use. The
pruprieFoTs claim the Wine of Life to be more
wholesome and far superior and cheaper than
whiskey or brandy, or, in fact, any other article
in common use, and ought TO he used in every
family. Every body sh 'uld give it trial. 1t Is
new thing, only been in about one year.yet
il has alresd gained . great name and a won
ierful ,ale, and Shower once tries il ALWAYS
recommends ii TO hie friends. Ii has the same
strength whnkey, but il is peculiarly pleasant.
even delicious and any one would be crazy to
take ~his'ey, &c. ifhe can get the Wine OF Life.
1t is for sale by Druggists everywhere, in quart
bottles, p'ice one dollar; or G be bought BY the
case. containing one dozen BOTTLES for ten dollars
We challenge the world 70 produce a purer,
cheaper, and nicer article than Warmers Vinum
Vitse, or Wine of Life. Take bottle of IL home
and give IL q trial. doaw thur 4wly

the world to show for it.
5th. The reduction of internal taxes which
they have made has been made entirely in
favor of capital and monopolies, and not in
favor of the industrial persui,s.
9th. The GOLD which our people so much
need at home is used to buy our bonds at
Ii to IA per cent. premium. when they are
not due for IA years. and then the gold is
shipped to Europe.
7th. The currency furnished to our people
at home is worth only sc cents on the
dollar.
Sth. The government is controlled by the
nonopolists of Massachusetts.
To help remedy these evils will you not
put Mr.. Cables name on your ticket Jus,
once, and help make the parties more equal
in congress, and give the democratic and
conservative party in congress lift in its
battles against monopolies, land grabbers,
protectionists, and class legislation of every
description ? Try this once, and you will fee
that you have helped to restore the govern
ment to a more honest and economical ad
ministration of your affairs. Try it once
and ask your neiehbor to do the same. II
will be better for your own and your country,
aud party's interests and you will never
regret 1t.
