EDITORIAL OPINIONs.-An advertise
ment is, as general rule, an elaborate
eulogium on the merits of something
which the advertiser desires to sell.
The editors and publishers of the paper
in which it appears are not responsible
for its statements. Sometimes, how
ever, highly important discoveries or
inventions announced to the world
through the business department of the
press, seem to demand a few words of
editorial communication. We have no
hesitation in saying that the excellent
medicine introduced by DR.. Joseph
Walker, of California, under the name
of VINEGAR BITTERs, bel ngs TO this
category, and has just claim to a favorable
notice. There can be no doubt as to Its utility
as tonic, stomachic and Alternative. We are
cognizant of many instances in which it has
cured cases of chronic dyspepsia, supposed to
be lncurable, and know that the estimation in
which it is held as remedy for bilious and
nervous disorders, intermittent and remlttent
fevers. rheumatism and general debility, is
founded on experience and well deserved.
The testimony of $. cloud of witnesses goes
to show that it is eminently useful IN large
majority of the disorders to which the human
family are subject. The fact that it contains
no alcohol commends it to the confidence of
that large and increasing class of the COM
nlunity who insist that all spirituOus stimu-
laDts are active pOiSOnS.-ICOm .
