Cholera Infantum,
STATEMENT OF REV. F. A. FARLEY, OF III
HOLSTUN CONFERENCE.

STATEMENT OF REV, T. A, FARLEY, OF THE
HOLsTON CONFERENCE.
During the summer Of 1876, my youngest
child, Tan infant was taken with Cholera
lnfantum. Every attention was given it,
and all the remedies for such complaints
that we knew of we're used, but none seemed
to have the desired effect; consequently the
child grew worse from day to day, until it
was reduced to mere skeleton, and we
had given up all hope Of its recovery. My
wife and for ak hours watched over it.
expecting every moment TO see it breathe
its last. Under these trying circumstances
| happened to think of the "Seven Springs
Mass" and at once procured bottle, and
commence giving small pill every few
hours. The child, from that day, began to
improve, and under this treatment soon res
covered, and is now rs hearty and healthy
as any child, whether it was the virtues Of
Mass or not, leave others to Judge. | was
quite feeble my self from a late attact of
Fever, and found that its use afforded me
great relief in restoring my health and
nervous system. Have on several occasions
since, recommended its use to others, and
learn, with the same beneficial results.

REMARKS /:

The times may be considered hard, and
money scarce, but few dollars invested
for the "Seven Springs" "lron and Alum
Mass" are worth $40 to every one thus
spent to any person who is not perfectly
well and hearty. Thera are persons that
would give $40 bottle rather than be
withSut it. A gentleman in Mississippi
says he would give 500 for a single bottle
if he could not obtain it for less. The re-
tail price is only $l.00 per bottle-sent
post-poid to any post office. This Mass is
for sale by BUNTING & PEPPER, and J. A.
DICKEY & Co., Bristol, Tenn, and by near
ly all regular Druggist, but if the Druggist
nearest YOU does not keep it, send to Lam
drum & Litchfed, Abingdon, Va, and yo"

WASHINGTON, D. G., Nov. 90

O.s.k. ,,,on,od -, cacoion ot non


The Senate resumed its session at noon.
The consideration Of the resolution Tor the
admission of Kellogg as Senator from Lousl.
aua was resumed.
Mr.. Hill, of Co., concluded bis speech begun
Yesterday. He urged that 10 admit Kellogg,
when there stood men at the door OF the Senate
with proof that Kellogg was not only party,
but the principal of the frauds by which ne was
elected, and that, too, before hearing thus CVi
dence, would be unworthy even OF radlcasm.
MIR. Wadleigh replied at length, c,ntendlng
that this evidence came too late.
Mr. Mcdonald responded. showing the nc
cessity of the evidence.
Mr.. Conking then 10 vehement inv Give
charged tho democrats with an inconsistent
change of position in demanding delay COW 10
the case CT Kellogg, when Tor weeks they had
made the walls of the Senate rilg with the DIN
of accusations against the committee Tor not
making report without further Investigation
or delay.
The debate was continued by Mr. WadIcigh,
after which
Mr. Gordon, of Ca, took the floor and re-
piled to Mr. Cooking, eulogizlDg in the nigh
est degree the exocllant qualities OF Gen. NJ. {.
ono side and Perry on the other. lie rctutcd
the charges against Geo. Butler, that he Was
10 any way responsible for the Hamburg riots,
and coutended that Gen. b. should be at once
admitted to his scat. Gen. q. made an clo-
gent and stirring speech.
Mr.. Patterson corroboratcd Senator Gordon s
statements 10 reference to affairs in South Car.
| DINA, When,
MIR. Hill took The floor and agau insisted
upon az Investigation into Kelloeg's case and
objected 10 the Insertion of Buffers case.
The whole debate took rather az acrimonious
turn AID the applause 10 the galleries had to
BIO rebuked by the Vice President who threat
ened 10 have them cleared upon occurrences.
UNEASY.
Some uneasiDess is felt among radicals 10 ret.
cncc TO the ascendancy of the democrats for
fear that if they should get possession cf both
Houses cf Congress Mr.. TiIdcn might be recog-
njzed as President Whether this is used TO
intimidate the weak republicans SO as to pre-.
vent them from voting for Butler or is reality,
it is difficult 10 say.
TIE SITUATION.
The democrats held caucus this morning.
but determine upon no course cfactlon IS far
as is known.
The republicans havc determined TO consent
if need be to an early adjournment to day, but
upon resssem bling tomorrow to press Kellogg S
case to vote.
The effect Of the admission of Kellogg will BIO
to give another vote against tho admission Of
Butler, which, it is more than likely. will pre-
vent his admission this session.
