DIR. H. II. STEVENS =
Dear Sir-I feel very grateful for what your
medicine, Negetine, has done in my
family. l wish to express my thanks by inform
ing you OF the wonderful cure of my son also,
to let you know that Vegetine Is the best medi-
cine l ever saw for Chtlls, Shakes, Fecer and
.ASue. My SON was sick with measles in 1873,
which left him with Hip.jotnt disease. My son
suffered a great deal of pain. all of the time ; the
pain was so great he did nothing but cry. The
doctors did not help him a particle, he could not
without crutehes; read your advertisement in
was a great Blood Purifier and Blood Food. I
tried one bottle. which was a great benefit. He
kept on with the medicine, gradually gaining.
He has taken eighteen bottles in all. and he Is
completely restored to health, walks without
clutches or cane. He is twenty years of age. l
have a younger sbn, fifteen years of age, who is
subject to ChiHs. Whenever he feels one COM
ing on, he comes i'll. takes a dose of Yegetine,
and that is the last o ftlle CNjH. Vegetine leaves
no bad effect upon the system like most Of the
medicines recommended for ChiHt. I cheerful
" recommend Vegetine for such complaints. l
think 1t is the greatest medicine in the world.
Respectfully, MRS. j. w. LLOYD.
VEGETINE.-When the blood becomes lifeless
and stagnant, either from change of weather or
OF climate. want Of exercise, irregular diet, 'or
from any other cause, the VEGETINE will renew
the blood. carry Off the putrid humors, cleanse
the stomach, regulate the bowels, and impart a
tone OF vlgor to the whole body.

THE COMPLICATIONS OF THE ARMY BILL

Washington, April THE debate in the
senate on the army appropriation bill prom
ises to be as protracted and bitter as it was
in the house. Republican senators see that
the democrats of the honse have the advaan-
tage as the question of troops at the polls
now stands. They say that their side in the
house did not place their opposition on the
strong ground. and hence they will allepe
that sections 2,002 and 5,52S Of the revised
statutes, as amended by the house, will abso-
lutely prevent civil officers of the United
State from exercising any power at the polls,
and that if the legislation proposed BY the
house is allowed to become q Law the eener.
al government will have surrendered all
right to exercise any control over the cleo
ton of members of congress. The language
Of section 2,002 as amended, is:
No military or naval officer or other per-
son engaged in the civil, military or naval
service of the United States shall order,
bring, keep or have under his authority OF
control any troops or armed men at the place
where any general or special election is held
in a state.
This will prevent marahals being armed,
and section 5,52S, as amended, prescribes
a penalty of $4,000 and Imprisonment at
hard labor for five years for any civil officer
or posse comitatus he may summon to be
armed.
If this provision, which the house has
placed on the army bill, becomes a law, the
supervisors and marshals law will be worth.
leee. This is the argument they will make,
and they think on this ground they can hold
the president up to vetsing the army bill.

n The regiment will start on it's long
journey on the 18th inst, and its Atlanta
quarters will be occupied BY the 9Th artillery,

will encounter dangers enough to make SOL

AS it numbers only about 800 men the re
