FROM A PHYsIcIAN.-Iyde Park, Vt,
Feb. :, 1876. Messrs. Seth W. Fowe X
Sons, Boston. Gents.-Iou may perhaps
remember that | wrote you several weeks
ago in regard to the use of the PERUVIAN
SYRUP for my wife, who was suffering from
general debility, the sequence of Typhoid
Dysentary. ! had tried the most noted
physicians in this State, and also in Canada,
without relief. At your recommendation
she commenced the use of the Syrup, the
first four bottles made but little impression,
bnt while taking the fifth she began to
improve rapidly, and now, after using six
of the dollar bottles, she has regained her
strength, and is able to do most of the
work about the house; and l feel that
cannot speak too highly in praise of the
PERUVIAN SYRUP. | have prescribed it to
several of my patients, and have procured
the sale of several dozen of it here. You
can make any use of this letter you see fit.
Yours very truly, H. d. BELDEN, NJ. d.

Personal.

Sometime ago Cecil lost one of her
most successful and popular physicians in
the person of Dr. n. b. Morrison, late
resident at North East, who removed to
Wilmington, Del, where wider field was
offered him. The Doctor has been prac.
ticing for fifteen years, three of which were
spent in the army, aud has always borne
high reputation for skill in his profession.
The old adage What's ones loss is
anothers gain, has held good in this case.
as DR.. Morrison reception in Whining on
has been of a very tiatteIing nature, and
from present appearances he will soon have
an extended practice. His Office is at 331

\ CONFIDENCE MAN-LooK OUT FOR
HIN.-About two weeks ago, man giving
the name of Carl Metz and protesting
to be the agent for " Peaks Family Swiss
Bell Ringers, - called at the office of the
gentleman having charge of Odd Fellows
Hall and stated that he desired to secure it
for the evenings of July nth and 18th.
He exhibited various documents, showing
his authority to act for the Peaks, and
finally after, to considerable extent, gain
ing the confidence of the gentleman, told
him that he was short of funds and re-
quested the advance of 50, for which he
offered an order upon the treasurer of the
Peaks troupe. The gentleman, after some
hesitation, complied and let him have the
money. He then posted up small bill
upon the Hall door, announcing the com
ing of the Bell Ringers, and departed. He
next went to the Howard House, and oper-
atng in the same manner upon the pro
prietor, succeed in getting the same sum
from him. He hasn't since been heard
from, nor have the "Bell Ringers either.
He is undoubtedly tirst-class fraud.

hands high and is five years old. His
stock is 50 Ethan Allen pure, and he gives

TRICKS ON THE DIGNIFIED.-It was a
sad sight, one day last week, to see one of
our dignifed old gentlemen step into a GER
tain store in town, go up to a counter, on
which there is glass case, to pay for some
thing he had just purchased. He espied
lying on it, as he fondy imagined, a faith
erless ten cent piece. He dropped his hand
kerchief on the piece, paid his bill, and
picked up his 'kerchief, pinched that part
under which the coin was lying. The hand
kerchief came up splendidly, but the money
didn't. He walked hurriedly out and the
emotions, which stirred his breast, were
like those which ''stir the heart of the
nutmeg" 1t is really cruel to play such
tricks on the dignified. They don't seem
to like them.

THE CANDIDATES. COMPARED.


A BRAVE MAN AND \ CowAED-wHAT MAY
BE EXPECTED FROM TILDEN.
On the money qseston, which involves
the national honor, the advantage is en-
tirely with the Republicans. Their plat
form is weak, but not false. Upon it they
have placed candidate who has shown
himself more brave and true than his party.
His emphatic uttcranCc. his splendid record
of fearless defense of the public faith in
the face of bowling mo5S, make him
stronger candidate on that question than
any the Republicans could have named.
In contrast, Mr.. Tilden appears in the
most pitiable light. Little more than a
year ago he warmly approved and signed
an act binding the State of New \ DIRK to
Join in the resumption which Congress bad
promised to effect not later than January,
1879. Before the bowling mob in his party
he has covered and yielded. Grant that
Mr.. Tiden, who bravely cried - no steps
backward two years ago, would try to
restrain his party. He was absolutely mas
ter of the Convention at St. Louis, and
did not restrain it there. The repudiating
element threatened to destroy his hopes.
viii he have greater resolution or greater
power to restrain that element III Demo
cratic Congress? One act of reputation
he consents to sign. Can he afterward
retain his moral power in opposing others ?
With him on the ticket is placed the favor
lite of the iniationistS. Can such couple,
upon such Il platform, be supported by
those who are true to public honor?
Those who think that the civil service
question is the more important, seem to us
mistaken. Some degree of Improvement
we may certainly expect from Mr.. Hayes.
He is not the man to be the tool of any set
of corrupt politicians: he is not man to
b easily pushed, buliied, or dragooned, and
his instincts and leanings are right. 1t
would be folly TO expect that even Mr.. III
den, with Il Democratic Congress behind
him, could work miracles of reform. At
worst there is only doubt respecting the
degree of reform to be obtained in the civil
service If Mr.. Hayes is elected. But there
is IA certainty that one act of reputation
would follow a Democratic victory with
Mir. 1ilden, and that the currency question
would be put back where it was in 1865,
excepting that confidence in the public
honor would be severely shaken. That
evil is positive, and cannot be easily re-
moved. A slower progress than this meas
ure in reform of the public service can be
endured better than shock to the national
honor and to that confidence upon which
alone commerce and industry can rebuild.
