The Medicine that Cures
VEGETINE.

Taking into consideration the character of its
vouchers, the history of its and the immense
increasing demand, VEGETINE may be fairly en-
titled the leading medicine of the age.
For scrotula in the blood, VEGETINE is an in
tallible remedy, and no person need suffer from
humors ulcers, and all diseases arising from impure
blood, if VEGETINE is used according to directions.
There is not a case of scrofula in existence that
VEGFTINE will not cure, provided, however. the
vital functions have not lost their power of action,
all that may be said to the contrary notwithstanding
fuence, and absolute in its action disease as the
following unquestionable evidence will show.

THE debut of Miss Anna Dickinson at the
Globe Theatre, Boston, does not appear to
have been distinguished success. The well
come extended to her was warm, the audi
ence was kind and sympathetic, aud the crit
les have many nice things to say. But those
who read between the lines perceive that Miss
Dickinson showed the possession of no great
dramatic ability, and that her characteriza-
ton was disfigured by grave faults. The
play, 1.-The Crown of Thorns," is condemned
as wanting in ease, interest, and variety, the
dialogue being sometimes stilted and some
times commonplace, and the action too hur-
ried.

The vast ignorance of the argus in regard
to political history and current events has
received another Illustration. In its issue of
Tuesday it informs its readers that "the ar
gument of Judge Hoar in the impeachment
trial on Saturday was crisp and to the point"
Considering that Judge Hoar made no argu-
ment SATURDAY. or any other day in the i'm
peachment trial, and that he has nothing
whatever to do with the case this informa-
ton can scarcely be regarded as reliable. The
argus evidently labors under the impression
that Judge Hoar is member of Congress
a1d manager in the impeachment trial. 1t
should go right to work and study up the his
tory of this country.
