What They Demand.

Education is not the work of the
State at all. 1t belongs to families,
and should be left to families, and to
voluntary associations. The school
tax in itself is an unjust imposition. "
"What we demand of the State, is
our right, either such schools as our
Church will accept, or exemption
from school tax. If it will support
the school by general tax, we de-
mand that it provide, or give us our
portion of the public fund and leave
us to provide schools in our own re-
igion, under the supervision of our
own Church. We hold education to
be function of the Church, not of
the State; and in our case we do
not and will not accept the State as
an educator. Freeman's Journal,
Catholic organ.)

Gazette, the following sure prevent

epidemic among the hogs in various
sections of this State: "a mixture
of one peck of ashes, four pounds of
salt, seven pounds of copperas, and
one pound of sulphur, kept constant

If predisposed to cholera, hogs will
eat it more freely than when free
from all symptoms.
eff a hog gets down, try to get into
him a gill of coal oil in slops; it has
been effective when other
remedies have failed.

Springfield, jackson and

tract Let.


The following report from the
Board of Directors, was received on
their return from the meeting, held
in Waverly on Thursday, the 21st
inst:
Mr.. E. RoCKEoLD-Dear Sir: Good
news and good tidings, to convey to
the friends of the Springfield, Jack
son and Pomeroy R. R. Its success
is a reality. We succeeded in letting
it to a Cincinnati company, called
the Western Construction Railroad
Company, on favorable terms, as we
think The aggregate amount is
S1,222,000, by estimate for los
miles. Mr.. Agnew thinks, when the
road is located and made, it will
probably fall short of this estimate
one hundred thousand dollars. The
contractors agree to take ten per
cent. (S122,00O) in stock, 40 per cent.
in bonds, (s5OO,OOO,) and the rest
tS6OO,OOO) in cash, to commence
work Immediately at each end of the
road from Springfield to Bainbridge,
and from Jackson to Waverly, all
ready for the rolling stock, which is
not included or let.
Respectfully,
PIP SEVTOTTD

H. R. STEVENS, ESQ:
Dear Sir-When about six months old was vac
cinated. The parties who vaccinated from the
same virus died from the humOr. The humor
spread over me to such extent that was rolled in
bran to prevent me from scratching my person. The
disease finally settled in my head. l remained in
this condition about 90 years. troubled all the time
with sores breaking in my head and discharging
corruption from my ear. At this time ANAL
kernel appeared on my neck, gradually increasing
in size until a tumor formed of such immense size
could see it by turning my eyes downward All
this time | taking various remedies for my
blood without any substantial benefit.
l then went 10 prominent physician in Boston
who, during his treatment of six months, lanced
the tumor eight times, which cost me nearly 500.
This left me with rough, aggravated sore, with
out at all diminishing the size of the tumOr, and in
sickly, feeble condition. / consulted another
physician in Natick, who, after considerable time,
succeeded in healing the without reducing the
size. At this point commenced to use YEGETINE,
through the earnest persuasion of friend. After
had taken this medicine about one week expe-
rie lced wonderful sensations. My whole body
ly. the tunfor broke and discharged trghtful guam
titles. From this time it decreased in size until the
bunch disappeared, but my neck still bears the
ugly scars of the and lance. | am now
healthy and strong and able to work every day.
will also mention that have been an acute suf-
ferer from inhammat0ry rheumatism ever since
can remember, until commencing the use of VEGE-
TINE, when almost immediately all rheumatic pains
ceased. This statement volunteer for the purpose
of benefting other suffering humanity, and you
will confer favor by giving it much publicity
as thought proper.
Very gratefully,

THE MEDICINE THAT CURES
VEGETTNE.

Taking into consideration the character of its
vouchers, the history of its cures and the immense
increasing demand, VEGETINE may be fairly enti-
tied the leading medicine of the age.
For scrofula in the blood, VEGETISE is an inIal-
libe remedy, and no person need suffer from tum-
ors. ulcers, aud all diseases arising from impure
blood, if VEeETINE is used according to directions.
There is not a case of scrofula in existence that
VEGETINE will not cure, provided, however, the
vital functions have not lost their power of action,
all that may be said to the contrary notYifhstand
ing.
VEGETINE is pleasant to the taste, mild in its In
fluence, and absolute in its action on disease as
the following unquestionsb.e evidence will show.
