THE GREAT REPUTATION
Which VEGETINE has attained in all parts of the
country as
Great and Good Medicine,

and the large number of testimonials which are
stantly being received from persons who have been
cured by its use, conclusive proof of its great
value. 1t is recommended by physicians and apoth-
ecaries. As Blood-Purifer and Health Restorer,
it has no equal.
VEGETINE is not prepared for fancy drink made
from poor liquors, which debltates the system and
tends to destroy health instead of restoring it.
Are not the many testimonials given for the differ
ent complaints satisfactory to any reasonable persons
suffering from disease that they be cured? Read
the different testimonials given, and no one can
doubt. In many of these the persons say that
their pain and suffering can not be expressed, as in
cases of Scrofula, where apparently the whole body
was one mass of corruption. If VEGETINE will re-
eve pain, cleanse, purify and such Diseases re-
storing the patient to perfect health after trying diff
ferent physicians many remedies suffering for years.
is it not conclusive proof, if you sufferer, you
can be cured? Why is this medicine performing
such great cures? 1t works in the blood in the
culating fluid 1t can be truly called the Great
Blood Purifier. The great source of disease orgin-
ates in the blood; and medicine that does not act
directly upon it, to purify and renovate has any just
claim upon public attention. When the blood be-
weather climate want of exercise irregular diet
or from any other cause, the VEGETINE win renew
the blood, carry oft the putrd humors cleanse the
stomach, regulate the bowels and impart tone of
vigor to the whole body. The conviction is, in the
public mind well in the medical profession that
the remedies supplied by the Vegetable Kingdom are
more safe, more successful in the cure of disease
than mineral medicines. VEGETINE is composed of
ROOTS barks, and herbs. 1t is pleasant to take and
is perfectly safe to give an infant. Do you need it?
Do not hesitate to try You will never regret it.

THE Turk always fought well, and the
Servian revolt evidently has not taken away
his courage. 1t is now clear that the Otto
man empire will not dissolve at a touch, that
it is no Prince Rupert drop to be shivered at
slight pressure. Bankruptcy has crippled
the resources of the Osmanlls, but the old
fighting quality remains -unimpaired. The
Turkish fatalism is a bad thing in peace but
a good thing in war.

THE doctors are giving good deal Of COM
fort to the average citizen. Having demon
strated that all kinds of diseases arise from
the use of bad water, and that most water
is bad, they now turn their attention to soap
and prove that it is poisonous. Freed from the
tyranny of soap and water men can be as
dirty as they please, and plead desire for
good health as justification.

Don CARLOS has earned the hatred of
Chicago by visiting that city ''unbexnownst'
to the reporters. For that they will never
forgive him, and Chicago papers will hereat-
ter go wild over the depravity of the Bour-
bons. But the Pretender could not escape
the inevitable, and yielded himself ungra-
ciously, to the Washington interviewer. The
information extracted from him is not
precious, however. In case of a good open

HEAVY GRADEs.-It has several times been
stated that the grade of tho Mount Washing

Tuesday, is the heaviest on which friction
wheels were ever used. This is far from being
true, for this grade is but about 260 feet to the
mile, while the Baltimore 81 Ohio railroad has
operated grade of 52S feet to the mile, or a

Tilden on SeceSS n.

Governor Tilden's friends are vehemently
denying that he is in any way responsible for
the notorious "peace plank" of the Chicago
platform of 1864. Little or no evidence is
brought forward to sustain this denial, the
defenders of the Democratic candidate be-
ing compelled to content themselves and their
followers with assertions of his Irresponsible
ty in the matter. 1t is certain that the plat
form received the assent of every member of
the committee on resolutions, and that there
was no division of opinion in the committee
at the time the report was made. That the
''peace plank'' was in accordance with Mr..
Tilden's convictions is amply demonstrated
Union cause was an unholy one, that the
war was an outrage, that the South had a
right to secede, that the government had no
constitutional power to coerce the rebellous
States. He has been throughout his career
disciple of Calhoun. Sufficient evidence OF
his opinion in regard TO secession is furnished
in the following letter written by him and
addressed to William Kent, a prominent New
York Democrat, letter which throughout
breathes the spirit of Calhounism:
''The single. slender, conventional tie which holds
the states in confederation has strength compared
with the compacted INTERVIEWING fbres which bind
tie atoms of human society into one formation of
national growth.
''The masters of political science who constructed
our system, preserved the State Governments as
bulwarks for the freedom of individuals snd locai-
ties against oppression from centralized power.
They recognized right of constitutional secession
but they left revolution organized ache it should be
demanded By the public opinion of q state; left it
Nth poWer to snap the tie of confederation as
ton might break q treaty; and to repeL coercion
q nation might repet inUdSi0R. They caused to
depend, in great measures upon the public opinion
of the states, in order to maintain confederated
union, They intended to make it necessary for us,
in every reasonable extent, to respect that public
opinion.
''As rule of right and duty for the construction
and execution OF the Constitution, the theory main
tanned by Mr. Seward and too extensively accepted
is entirely faacous as no contract governing COM
plicated transactions relations between men, and
applying permanently through the changes inevita-
BILE in human affairs, can be efectua ii either party
intended to be bound by it is at liberty to construe
execute its provisions in spirit of hostility to the
substantial objects of these provisions Especially
is this true of compact of confederation betlceeu the
states, a1here there be Grbier inUested
cith authorities and poocers equally capable Nth
those Whtch courts possess betlceen individuals for
determining and enforcing q just construction and
erecutiOn of the Instrument.
