Versions OF the peace conditions are
widely divergent respecting Bulgaria and
indemnity. Some persons say the indem-
nifty is E200, 100000, which is fabulous,
while others say It is e40,000,000, the
latter amount independent Of territorial
cession.

as to his opinion of the Grange"
and he gave his opinion boldly and
fearlessly, h ough without any
"abuse, n.or making any war against
them, knowing, too, that there were
many Changers present, and the pos
sbility of loosing their support, &C.
We say, Notwithstanding all this, he
had the courage, firmness and manli-
ness to affirm his belief. And does
Col. Richmond know that this is Just
why we intend to cast our ballots for
him at the coming election Away
with a man who will sacrifice his
opinion just to please others. Russell
is going for the nominee" certain,
and no mistake! Those who were
little scared at the start for fear that
Col. Richmond was "funder" have
found out better, and are going to vote
for him. They say they can't trust

reducing my weight to l5S pounds
This is all very satisfactory and pleas
ant !: but just previous to my commen-
cling the use of your medicine, L had
purchased two suits of fine clothes at
a high price, and find, to my dismay,
that they are entirely useless to me
now. When | put one of my coats
on. my friends tell me it looks like
coffee sack on a bean-pole, and when
put the pants on,-well, description
fails. My object in writing is to as
certain whether you have not in con-
nectiOn with your medicine business
an establishment where your patrons,
similarly situated, could exchange
these useless garments for others that
would fit. | think you ought to have
something of the kind, ne it would be
an lnducement for many others to use
the Anti-Fat, who now Object TO using
it, in consequence OF the lo9s they
would sustain in thrOwiIg aside valua-

over in your mind. A Clothing EX-
