Rg1EUMkTEsN Is A DISEASE OF THE
BLOOD.

The bloodin this disease, is found to contain
an excess of fJria. VEGETINE acts by con-
yerting the blood from its diseased condition
to a healthy circulation. Vegetne regulates
the bowels, which is very important in this
complaint. One bottle Of Vegetine will give
relief, but to effect permanent cure it must
be taken regularly, and may take several bot
ties, especially IN eases of long standing
Vesetine is sold by all druggists. Try It, aud
your verdict will be the same as that of thou

much relief as froin the use of Eegetine,"
which is composed exclusively of Bdrks, Roofs

The Country Can stand General
EsmOcrAtfc Victory.

Henry c. Yarmouth to Gath 1.-THE
republican voters are tired out. They
have been called up to save their coun.
try at least twice year for at least SKIS
teen years; to subscribe money, to
arouse their pulse to turn out. and TO
lose their sleep. Now they propose to
let the other man walk. Mr.. Hayes
has chosen soothing line Of policy, and
this satisfies the indifferent disposition
of the bulk OF the party, You can not
raise money any more for the party
among the people, the merchants, and
the office holders need not give any
more The democratic party has been
out Of power so long that they are in
sacrificing mood, and can be aroused
and rallied. This is natural enough
to let half the people go to sleep and
half keep watch, and to take turns.
The country now, probably for the first
time can stand q general democratic
victory"

"The character OF Bona is well
adapted to Miss Rogers powers. The
part OF the hayward impulsive girl,
swayed alternately by conflicting PAS
si0ns, but rising at last to the true nos
bility Of her complex nature. Is one
which suits the faoile, flexible genius
Of this charming actress exactly, and
the portraiture that she presented last
night was one which deserved careful
attention, and which won most hearty
applause. The pe,ue aud sprightliness
which Miss Rogers throws into her
rendering OF the Beggar Girl would
suffice of themselves to make the part

force and a delicate fnessc la the man
agement OF difficult contrasts, which
really belong to very high order OF

THE HOME OF JULIET.
The Palace Of the Cnpulcts-Julfet's
Tomb.

Correspondent Philadelphia Times :;
While Verona possesses many other ats
fractions, it is chiefly interesting to the
modern traveller on account of the halo
of interest with which Shakespeare has
surrounded the home of the Capulets
in his immortal dramatic story OF love.
The more man travels the more is he
impressed wife the power ofa,great writer
to surround comparatively obscure
places with imperishable interest.
Such spots are sought out with avidity
by all tourists, and often long journeys
are made to visit simple piece of ground
or tumble,down old building Europe
abounds with these objects of literary
renown and the fortunate owners of
them usually turn their possessions to
profitable account. Among the places
whose renown has been accomplished
by single writer the old home of the
Capulets and Juliet's tomb at Verona
are conspicuous examples.
The palace of the Copnlets is now
wretchedly dirty tenement house on an
alley in the poorest part of Verona.
That balcony Of Juliet, from which she
in her inetfable sweetness gazed on the
pale moon, faces on the dirty alley,
and as Romeo-like looked up to see
"whet light through yonder window
breaks"
homely girl, with uncombsd hair and
soiled clothes, stood there to complete
the unromantic tout en- semble. Pass,
ing under an archway, we entered the
courtyard of the degraded palace, and
there the usual repulsive tenement
house scenes were abundant. A tablet let
in the front wall tells that the building
was formerly the house of the Capuletti
the only evidence of the fact which
the eye can discern. The Montecchi
family, of which Romeo was member,
lived at Mantua, twenty-three miles
distant.
Next we drove to Juliet's tomb, which
is in the garden of the 0rfanotroho.
Translated the word signifies orphan
house" or founding hospital" During
Juliets time the building was convent,
which was probably attached to church.
The tomb is Verona marble, with
doors of open ornamental iron work.
Against the rear wall is an empty stone
sarcophagus, without any lid and it was
in this Juliet was laid after her sup
posed death. Into this vault the un-
happy Romeo forced an enterrance and
terminated his life. -Four or FIVE faded
wreaths :hang above the sarcophagus,
and of one there is little story. The
offering in question has a visiting card
attached, which, in addition to the lady $
name, is inscribed, in female hand,
verbatim, as bellows
This wreath was placed here
BY the vile OF General Shakespeare,
OF England who is a descendant
OF the immortal Bard.
Some matter-of>fact visitor has, with
lead pencil, written across the card
the single word Cray" Our guide
stated that all trace Of Juliet's remains
is now lost.
