Opinions of the Press.
Halls Medical Record, N. Y, July 1851
Many diseases, considered incurable, causing great
suffering in countless thousands of our fellow beings
can in the majority of cases be restored to perma.
nent health under DR.. Scotts Scientific Theory DEM
onsrating the fact that his mode Of treating diseases
of chronic character is unsurpassed by any method
now in use. All should consult with him who wish
for speedy cure and thorough advice, as Dr. Scott
has had the most remarkable and gratifying success.
[From the Boston Transcript, July TO- 1921
Standing foremost among the most liberal and
most successful Of American physicians to-day, is
Dr. c. Winfield Scott, at the Asylum Institute Med-
Gina, corner of Asylum and Washington Sts. Boston.
He has risen above the prejudces of particu-
lar schools, and by treating patients their cases
demand, without sacrificing his abilities to sectarian
rules he has achieved wonderful success and effect
ed cures that astonshed some of the ablest phys-
clans of the day.
From the 'sNew Haven Daily Union."]
DR.. Scott's cures in some instances are indeed
wonderful, especially in Nervous and Chronic Dis
eases Of long standing. The "Famous Wyomoke
or Nerve FoOd,'' with which he has had such brill
liant success, is the result of assiduous scientific
search, and without doubt the greatest triumph in
medical science yet achieved by man.

to remove the cause of obscure diseases that have
afflicted the patient for years-recovery rapid, thor

POLITICAL,


paign at Indianapolis Friday evening. The
Senator addressed very large audience and in
the course of his speech thus describes the
Democratic candidates.: "Gov. Tilden is an
inveterate bachelor of &c, lifelong Demo.
crat, and has been for twenty years leader in
his party and closely identified with all of it's
most in famous measures, trained in the school
Of New York city politics, graduate of Tam.
many Hall, disciple of the revolutions of '9S,
an ardent sympathiEer with the rebellion. BE
completely filled that character known during
the war as a copperhead. Hendricks, you
have known for nearly thirty years and during
all that time he has suggested no policy, pro-
dnced no measure, started no idea which any
human being can remember save and except
one which we are all asked to forget. His
place of general retirement and relaxation has
been upon the fence, and he has never gotten
down upon one side or the other till his party
had taken such decided ground as left us no
doubt about their position. Like Tilden. he
will be the last of his line, and will leave no
dea, measure or policy as a political contribu-
ton to those coming after him. His official
life in small things has been respectable, and
successful in lodging larger responsibilities.
Senator Spencer read in the Senate last
week despatch from the chairman of the
Republican state committee of Alabama. say
ing that at the election in that state thousands
of Republicans were deprived of the right of
suffrage, and asking an investigation.
The Regular Republicans of Arkansas hav q
held State convention and nominated joseph
Brookes for Governor. All efforts to harmonic
the two factions of the party failed and two
State and two electoral tickets are now in the
field.
Geo. W. Hende of Morrstown, VT, has
been nominated for Congress by the Republi-
cans.
The Tennessee Democrats have re-nominated
Gov. Porter.
FOREIGN.
The most interesting event in foreign circles
during the week past has been the promotion
OF Mr.. Disraili, the English PRIMER, to the
peerage under the tile of Earlof Beaconsfeld.
