Eastern War.

Violent contradictions continue
to be the Distinguishing feature of
the war news. We are told from
one source the attack on the Schipka
Pass was all but abandoned by the
Turks on Friday, and that the Rus
sian Chief of Staff considered the
danger at that point as over. From
Turkish source comes the an
nouncement that the attack was
recommended on Saturday and that
the effective strength of the defend
ing force has been reduced by one
half. The battle of Karasan is con
sidered by the Russians as a very
trifing reverse; by the Turks as a
great victory. The recent fight at
Pelisat is the subject of equally con-
Trajectory claims in respect to its
duration and results. However the
truth may be, it is evident that nei-
ther Mehemet Ali nor Osman Pasha
have yet achieved their proposed OBJ
ject. The great encampment be-
tween the Yantra and the Osma is
still intact. If the Turks were real
ly confident of their ability to sweep
the invaders back to the Danube, it
is hardly likely that the same dis
patch which announces decisive
victories" would bring news of a
command that the twenty-four de-
tached forts which are to protect
Adrianople shall be ready by the
beginning of Winter. N Y. Times.

of ten words should not be sent for ten
cents, instead of dollar or two dollars,
which jaw Gould viii charge. And then,
dear people, why not take a shy at the ex-
press business. Is there any earthly rea-
son why goods fit to be sent tbroueb the
mails should not go through them. and st
a rate Of postage that would pay the Gov
ernment for doing it? Is there anv reason
why two express companies should monop-
olize the carrying trade of the country.
and compel the people to pay whatever
they choose to exact? The pOstofice is
the remedy for this extortion. The law
of three years ago should be re-enacted.
and all matter that can be safely carried
through the mails should be so carried. 1t
was repealed by the efforts of the express
companies, who had altogether too much
influence in Congress. See to it this win
ter that Congress allows you to use the
mails for everything that is legitimately
mailable. As this is the time for reforms
see that you have all that you are entitled
to. Flood Congress with petitions for
cheap telegraphing and express business,
and thus get yourself in shape for move
ment on the railroads and the other swim
dies that burden you. PIETRo.

clever, good natured man, with per-
feet health and great powers of en-
durance. Light sleeper and quick

The Grand Jury in session at
Columbia, S. c., have found true
bills against number of the former
officers of the State Government.
The offences charged range from
breach of trust to forgery and con-
spiracy to bribing the Legislature, and
they are brought against ex Gov.
Moses, ex-Gov:. Scott, United States
Senator Patterson, Treasurer Par
ker, and HI. II. Kimpton. It is al
legged, and is not improbable, that
these prosecutions are melted by
political animosity, but there has
been agood deal of very bad work
in South Carolina, and trial by jury
ought to bring out the truth. 1t
is certainly a far manlier weapon of
political warfare-if it be SO enl-
ploYed in this case-than the shot
gun and the rope.

1t appears from the official returns
on file in the War Department that
on the Slst of May, 1868, the army
of Northern Virginia numbered, in
fantry, 54,S5e; cavalry, 9, $50, and
artillery, AGO; of all arms, 68,85O
effective. This was Immediately be-
fore the invasion of Pennsylvania,
and may be regarded as represent
ing the maximum of General Lees
army in the Gettysburg campaign.
On the goth of July, 1868, after the
return of Gen. Lee to Virginia, his
army numbered 40, ,3s8 effective, ex-
elusive of the cavalry corps, of
which no report is made In the re-
turn of the date last mentioned. AL
lowing s,7I2, fair estimate for the
cavalry, the effective total of the
army, on the goth of July was 49,
900. 1t appears, therefore, that
Gen Lees loss in the Pennsylvania
campaign was about $4,000.

the people of Western Pennsylvania

VEGETINE.

The range of disorders which yield to the iDflu-
ence of this medicine and the number of defined
diseases which il never fails to cure, are greater
than any other single medicine has hitherto been
even recommended for by any other than the pro-
prieturs of some quack nOstrum- These diseases
are Scrofula and all eruptive diseases and tumOrs
Rheumatism, Gout. Neuralgia and Spinal Com
plants and all IniammatOry symptoms. Ulcers,
all Syphilitic diseases, Kidney and Bladder dis
eases, Dropsy, the whole train of painful disOr-
ders which so generally aflict American women,
and which carry annually thousands Of them to
premature graves; Dyspepsia, that universal
curse of American manhood; Heartburn, Piles,
Constipation, Nervousness inability to sleep, and
impure blood.
This is formidable list of human ailments for
any single medicine to successfully attack, and
it is not probable that any article, before the
public has the power to cure the quarter Of them,
except Vegetine. 1t lays the axe at the root of
The tree of disease by first eliminating every i'm
purity from the blood, promoting the secretons,
opening the pores the great escape valves of the
system-invigOrating the liver to its full and
natural action, cleansing the stomach and
Strengthening digestion. This much accomplished,
the speedy and permanent cure of not only the
diseases we have enumerated, but likewise the
whole train of chronic and constitutional disOr-
ders, is certain to follow. This is precisely what
Vegetine does, and it does it so quickly and so
easily that it is an accomplished fact almost be-
fore the patient is aware Of it himself.

There is-it is said-considerable
fnessing going on among Democrat
ic managers, to fix upon some way
by which the registry law of this
State may be evaded and its provi-
sions rendered nugatory. In this di-
rection, their efforts are not satisfac-
torily successful; but they are max
ing better headway in attacking the
law, and are trying to make it odious.
They are trying to make voters be-
lieve that it will cost them a smart
fee to get registered, and that there
fore the law is soppressive. The fact
of the matter is that it will not cost
