NEARLY BLIND.

H. r. STEVENS: Dear Sir-In express
ing my thanks to you for benefits de-
rived from the use of VEGETINE, and to
benefit others, L will state:-
When eight or nine years old was
afflicted with Scrofula, which made its
appearance i'm my eyes, face and head,
and | was very near blind for two years.
All kinds of operations were performed
on my eyes, and all to no good result.
Finally the disease principally settled in
my body, limbs and feet, and at times
in an aggravated way.
Last Summer was, from some cause,
weak in my spine and kidneys, and it
was at times very hard to retain the
urine. Seeing your advertisement in
the Commercial, | bought a bottle of
VEGErINE, and commenced using ac-
cording to directions. In two or three
days obtained great relief. After using
four or five bottles | noticed 1t had a
wonderful effect on the rough, scaly
blotches on my body and legs. still
used VEGETINE and the humorous sores
one after another disappeared until they
were all gone, and | attribute the cure
of the two diseases to VEGETINE, and
nothing else.
If am ever affected with anything of
the kind again shall try VEGETINE as
the only reliable remedy. Once more
accept my thanks, and believe me to be,
Very respectfully,

III. r. STEVENS, ESQ.,: Dear sir-I have
been badly afflicted with Kidney Com
plaint for ten years; have suffered great
pain i'm my back, hips and side, with
great difficulty in passing urine, which
was often, and in very small quantities,
frequently accompanied with blood and
excrutiating pain.
have faithfully tried most of the
popular remedies recommended for my
complaint; | have been under the treat
ment of some of the most skillful physi-
clans in Boston, all of whom pronounced
my case incurable. This was my condi-
ton when | was advised by friend To
try the VEGETINE, and | could see the
good effects from the first dose took,
and from that moment [ kept on i'm
proving until was entirely cured, tax
ing in all, should think, about six bot
ties.
1t is indeed valuable medicine and
if should be afflicted again in the same
way, would give dollar n dose, If
could not get 1t without.

OLD BEN. WADE has been inter
viewed by a correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial. The follow
ing extract shows that his mind is as
vigorous as ever. Speaking of the
democratic party he said:
You see, they have no definite
principles TO defend. It's different
with us. Theirs is party for the
spoils, and it don't make any differ
ence what one OF them does. or what
any of them does, about your voting
for him. You could see that illus.
trated in the matter Of the salary
grab that was so much talked Of
more of them voted for it than voted
for it on our side, but it didn't hurt
them any. 1t makes no difference,
either who they nominate for Office.
A. wouldn't cost the party two hun
ored votes to nominate JEFF. Davis
for the Presidency.

PAIN In THE BACK.

There is no remedy known to medical
science which has proved itself more
valuable in cases Of Kidney Complaints
than the VEGETINE. 1t acts directly
upon the secretions, cleanses and puri-
fies the blood, and restores the whole
system to healthy action.
The following extraordinary cure of
great sufferers, who had been given up
by the best physicians as hopeless cases,
will speak for themselves, and should
challenge the most profound attention

Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, etc.,
are always unpleasant, and at times they
become the most distressing and dan
gerous diseases that can affect the hu-
man system. Most diseases of the Kid
neys arise from impurities in the blood,
causing humors which settle OH these
parts. VEGETINE excels any known
remedy in the whole world for cleansing
and purifying the blood, thereby caus-
ing healthy action to all the organs of
the body.
Vegetine IS Sold by all Druggists.

A Gnnd Nomination.

Mr. Hamilton Fish, Jr., son of Secretary
Fish, is again candidate for member of As
sembly in Putnam county. Mr.. Fish was
in the Assembly of 1873 and made a very
creditable record. But he distinguished
himself by his firm opposition to some Of
the Vanderbilt railroad bills which were
before the Legislature of that year, and
which were, in his judgment inconsistent
with the public interests. In consequence
Of this opposition he incurred the enmity Of
the railroad people, and through the efforts
and the enormous power of the corporation
he was defeated last year. The constituency
he represented the previous year felt the loss
they had sustained in being deprived Of his
services at the last session, and have again
placed him in the field. The spirit Of the
people is now opposed to dictation from any
olicarchy, whether o railroad corporation or
secret political society, and they will take
care that the error of last year is not repeated
at the present election.
It is gratifying to see young men like Mr..
Fish, whose fathers have distinguished them
selves in political life, taking an active part
in politics and seeking to carry out the
principles in which they have been educated.
1t gives good promise for the future of q
republic when its statesmen do not end with
one generation, but are continued through a
long line of honored names and if the ex-
