H. r. Stevens, Esq.,:
DEAR SIR: During the past five years have had
ample opportunity to judge Of the merit OF yEGE-
TINE. Ny W ife has used for complaints attend
ing lady of delicate health, with more beneficial
results than anything else which she ever tried.
have given II to my children under almost every
circumstance attending large family, and always
with marked benefit. have taken It myself with
such great benefit that cannot find words to ex-
press my unqualified appreciation of its goodness.
While performing my duties as Police Officer in
this city 1t has been my lot TO fall in with great
deal of sickness. / unhesitatingly recommend
VEGETINE, and never knew oia case where II did
not prove sll that vas claimed for II. Particularly
in OF debitated impoverished state of the
blood its effects are really wonderful and for all
blood ii appears to work like charm, and do not
believe there are any circumstances under which
VEGETINE can be used with injurious results, and
1t will always afford me pleasure to give any further
information as TO what know about yEGETINR.

MousDsvILLE, March 18th, 1876.


MoUsDsvILLE, March 18th, 1876.
Editors Of Register:
The March term of the Circuit Court
commences to-day and the Wheeling bar
was more numerously represented than
usual. Among the number were Messrs.
Lamb, Peck, Hubbard, Caldwell, Russell,
Hogue and Kennedy.
The Grand Jury found indictments
against Abraham Good and Michael Muir
ply for burglary, w. Adams and Levi
McCombs for grand larceny, two Cross
wells from Liberty District the same.
Horace Howard for rape and John Was.
man for obstru1ting the highway. Mr..
Howe charged with committing rape was
recognized for the next term, the prln-
cipal witness being unable to attend. The
case of the State VS.. Alex. johnson, Tor
the murder of James Greathouse. and the
State VS.. Mr.. Grant, for assault with IN
tent to kill, were continued until the next
term. The Shep McMechen will case Is
set for the 9Th Of April, and the remain
der of the cases on the docket are SO ar
ranged us to be reached before the trial
of it, thus giving ten days for its dispo
sition. The former trial occupied twelve
days. A special jury is ordered for it,
and suppose it will be tie case OF this
term.
Mr.. Walter Evans, clerk of the circuit
court for the last nine years, lately re
signed, intending to go West, and his
place has been filled by the appointment
of A. o. Baker, ESQ. The trial OF the
prisoners sent from Marshall county,
now confued IN the Ohio county jail,
charged with felony, is set for toner
row.
Our Agricultural works are running
on full time, and employ over twenty
men. The statesmen sent out by the
company report favorably, and rea-
sonable prospect of success seems as
sured. Mr.. s. Il Hanen, for couple OF
yesrs past teacher in the Moundsville
public school, has laid ASIDE the ferrule
aud intends trying his luck in selling the
MAJ ufactures of these works.
The Moundsville rolling mill has been
running for the last few weeks under the
management of Messrs. Kietz and FRI
zell, and it is hoped by all concerned
that better lln.e may be made than here
tofore.
The project of receiving certain mum
Der of United States convicts having
been adopted, it will not be long until
the visitor to the West Virginia peni-
Tertiary may view the effect of dealing
ia crooked whisky, and we might be
highly honored by the presence ofthe ex-
Secretary of War, Belknap.
Mr.. Edwards, relic of the last cen
fury, died this morning. He was lO9
wars old. The time for the funeral has
not, at this writing, been publicly an
nounced.

THE JEW AND CHRISTIANITY.

blessed be the Lord God Of Shem,'
was prophecy spoken 10y the patriarch
Moan, and has been literally fulfilled in
all generations While the tribe OF
.JAPuETHhasbeen cnlargedand are we'll
ing in the tents of Shem. yet the jew
while denying the messahship of Christ
has consistently preserved the faith OF
his fsthsr, and blessed and glorified the
name of the Lord his God.
1t is wonderful that while it is u car
dinsl belief of the Christian world, that
all nations including the descendants Of
Shem. are to be converted to Il be ief OF
the messahship of Christ, yet no organ
lied effort has ever been made to place
the truths and beauties Of Christian re-
ligion before them, the chief of which is
charity.
Recently a conference of clergyman
were engaged in discussing how to reach
the Jews, when celebrated Rabbi, DR..
GoTTEIEL, rctorted. and AT the same time
administered a rehuAe by telling them
that If they desired to reach the Jews
they need not 20 to the criminal classes,
or among the drunkards, or to the haunts
of debauchery, or to the prisons. He
told them that they need experience no
difficulty in reaching the Jews, for they
can be found at their homes, where they
will courteously receive any caller The
learned rabbi then asked:
What have the Christian world to offer
us Jews instead of what We have? Have
the Christian world come to US and Of
fered comfort, and endeavored 10
make us see the beauty of their
religion by their lives, and by their kind
ness towards Us. Have they offered
shelter to us, the poor scattered ones of
the earth, whom they now pity so much?
Never have we seen anything of that
sort, and never has any such spirit been
shown us. For ages the jew was called
an infidel, and treated as one; but even
when he lay in the dust, he still pro.
claimed his religion"

KANAwAA splint coal IS sold in this
city for sl3 ton; that is at retail, in
small lots for using 10 CRATES. 1t gives
general satisfaction wherever it has been
used. The trade could be wonderfully
extended if the prices were put more
nearly to the cost of putting 1t down
here. 1t is gratifying to notice that In
the face of all the troubles the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railroad has under

Shipments of coal via this line IRON tne
Kanawha region of West Virginia
show an increase as compared with last
season. There is an unlimited supply OF
coal of most excellent quality tor gas,
house or steam purposes, in the Kanawha
