ARCHBIHsoP PURCELL's organ, the
Catholic Telegraph, ridicules the late
General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church; says its fury is harmless, and
that its violent rawlings are as harm
less as the hideous howliug contortions
of negro Methodism. 1t even thinks
that IFS utterances have as little lntiu-
ence upon the public as baying at the
moon. Meantime, it promises to give
William Allen a cordial support, and
tells its Catholic readers that the solid
vote of the Roman Catholic Church
belongs to the Democratic party for its
faithfulness in passing the Geghan bill
This is not pleasant reading to Fog
Horn Allen, and that worthy has gone
to Cincinnati for the purpose of keep
ing the Telegraph quiet until after cleo

Mr.. II. X. STEVENS, Esq:
Dear Sir-I have have heard from many
sources of the great success OF VEGETINE in
cases of Scrofula, Rheumatism, Kidney Cons
plaint, Catarrh. and other diseases OF kindred
nature. l make no hesitation il. saving that
kro'C EG ETINE to be the most reliable rem edy
for Catarrh and General Debility.
My wife has been troubled with Catarrh Il r
many years. and at times very badly. She has
thoroughly tried every supposed remedy that
we could hear of, and with all this she has for
several years been gradually grown worse and
the discharge from the head was excessive and
very offensive.
She was in this condition when she CONS
menced to take VEGETINE; could see she was
improving on the second bottle. She continued
taking the NEGEIINE until she had used from
twelve to fifteen bottles. i am now happy in
informing you and the public Of you choose to
make 1t public that she is entirely cured and
VEGETINE accomplished the cure after moths
ing else would. Hence / feel justified in saying
that NEGETINE is the most reliable remedy,
and would advise all suffering humanity to
try, for believe it to be q good. honest veget-
able medicine, and shall not hesitate to re-
commend it. am. &c. respectfully,
