THE evidence in the Babcock case has
not yet assumed q very decisive form.
The testimony OF Commissioner Doug
lass was by no means SO pointed as the
public had been led to expect by the Civ
ings-out Of the news-mongers. 1t may
be that the prosecution can yet weave
into the chain of circumstancial evidence
these links that now, standing
alone, are of but little strength,
30 as TO make the whole
sufficient to work conviction. What
tale the future kilograms will unfold re-
mains to be told. Thus far they look in
nocent enough for any man to face. We
regret to see a disposition manifested
by some newspapers to convict Bab'
cock, either with or without evidence;
and evidently in the hope Of being able
to make some political capital out of the
event. This is all wrong. Let Bah
have fair play and no gouging, no mat
ter whom it helps or hurts.

WHAT IS yEeETINE? 1t is a compound ex-
tract from barks, roots and herbs. It's Ma

any bad effects upon the system. IL is nour-

upon the blood. 1t qulets the nervous system.
1t gives you good, sweet sleep at night. 1t is q
great panacea for our aged fathers and moth
ers; for it gives them strength, quiets their
nerves, and gives them natures sweet sleep
as has been proved by many an aged person.

munity will infinitely more contribute to
the taxable wealth of the State than can
be gained by taxing the capitalthus In
vested at its inception. BY this system
of taxing the loan, the stream is tapped
at the fountain; whereas 1t should be
tapped at its mouth. The men OF but
moderate means, who are anxious to
mako their industry and energy ayaiIa.
BILE by pushing forward business enter
prises in legitimate way to the adyan-
tage OF the community as well as to
themselves, are compelled by this plan
Of taxation to pay considerable per-
centags more for the capital they might
borrow than men engaged in similar
business In other communities are re-
quired to pay. Consequently they enter
the field of competition more heavily
weighted than their rivals, and work to
disadvantage to that extent.
We do not wonder that the people Of
New Jersey are exercised upon the sub
iject, and are looking with anxiety upon
the course OF their Legislature in this
regard. They are en- enterprising peo-
pie largely engaged in trade and manu-
factures that bring wealth to themselves
and therefore to the State. Much Of the
capital for all these wealth-giying en-
terprises has been derived from New
York upon mortgage security. These
securities are now proposed to be taxed,
which will necessitate the withdrawal
of the loans and the foreclosure of mort
cages without delay, to the injury Of
thousands OF business men. That this
result will ensue Is inevitable unless
the bill for exemption shall prevail,
The lesson is q practical one, useful to
us as we'll as to them.

fornia, amounting to $500. They are
now turning out 600 tools per day, 400 of
which are axes.
The Globe Nail Company report an

The Lane Manufacturing Company.
Montpelier, VT, are now running on full
time, with force OF over fifty men, and
during the last month sold eight of their

Carolina, Georgia and Texas.
Since the experiment OF sending Amer
lean cotton goods TO England has been
tested, with satisfactory results, orders
from England have been received by the
manufacturers at Fall River for ten
thousand pieces of prints per week.
That ought to set some people to work.
The Chase Manufacturing Company,

Machine, New York, have sold their
patent right for England at large price,
and received $4,000 gold as first pay

ship to that country one thousand ma
chimes during two years. Their home
orders are increasing all the time, and a
few days ago they sold another lot OF
machines to go to Australia.
A new establishment has recently been
opened and set in operation at Louis.

the purpose of making iron castings,
such as hollow-ware, sash-weights, all

q. r. sTEyENs, Esq: Dear Sir-7 Y Y. hen about
who were vaGcjnated from tile same vlrus;died
from the humOr. The hnmor spread over me
to such an extent that was rolled in bran to
prevent me from scratching my person. The
disease finally settled in my head. Iremained
in this condition about twenty years, troubled
all the time with sores breaking in my head
ana discharging corruption from my ear. AT
this time a small kernel appeared on my neck,
gradually increasing In size until a tumor
formed Of such imnIensesize could see 1t by
turning my eyes downward. Alltiis time
was taking yarlous remedies LOT my blood,
without any substantial benefit
| then went to a prominent physician in Bos-
ton, who during his treatment of six months,
lanced the tumor eight times, which cost me
nearly S400. This leftme with rough, aggra
waited sore, without at all diminishing the size
Of the tumor, and in q sickly, feeble condition.
II consulted another physician in Natick, who,
after considerable time, succeeded in healing
the sore without reducing the Size. At this
point commenced to use VEGETfNE, through
the earnest persuasion Of friend. After |
had taken themedicine about one week, ex-
perienced wonderful sensations. My whole
body seemed TO be undergoing a radical change,
until, finally the tumor broke and discharged
frightfui quantities. From this time it de-
creased in size until the bunch disappeared, 1,
but my neck still bears the ugly scars of the
sore and lance. l am now healthy and strong
and able to work every day.
l will also mention that have been an acute
sufferer from inffammatory rheumatism ever
since L Can remember, until commencing the
use OF vEGETINE, when almost immediately all
rheumatic pains ceased. This statement vol
unteer for the purpose Of benefting otner suf-
fering humanity, and you will confer favor
by giving it as mucn publicity as thought
proper. Very gratefully,
