VEGETINE.
An Excellent Medicine.
Springfield, O., Feb. 28, 1878.
This is to certify that I have u«ed Vege
tine, mauulactured by 11. R. Stevens,
Boston, Mass., for rheumatism and gen-
eral prostration of the nervous system,
with good success. I recommend Vege-
tine as an excellent medicine for such
complaint*.
Yours very truly.

Mr H R. Stevbks.
Dear Sir,—Three vears ago I was suf
fering terribly with inflammatory rheuma-
tism Our minister's wife advised me to
take Vegetine. After taking one bottle I
was entirely relieved. This year, feeling
a return ol the disease, I again commenced
taking it. and .mi being benefited greatly.
It also greatlv improves my digestion.

Safe and Sure.
Mr. // R Stevens.
In 1872 your Vegetine was recommended
to me, and. yielding to the persuasions ot
a friend, I consented to try it. At the
time I was suffering from general debility
and nervous prostration, superinduced by
overwork and irr gular habits. Its won
ilerful strengthening and curative proper-
ties seemed to affcct my debilitated system
liom the first dose; and under its per-
sistent use I rapidly recovered, gaining
more than usual health and good feeling.
Since then I have not hesitated to give
Vegetine my most unqualified indorse-
ment as being a safe, sure and powerful
ayent in promoting health and restoring
the wasted system to new life and energy.
Vegetine is the only medicine I use, and
as long as I live I never expect to find a
belter.
Yours truly, W. H. CLARK,
120 Monterey street, Alleghany, Pa.
VEGETINE.
The following letter from Rev. G- W.
Mansfield, formerly pastor of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church, Hyde Park, and
at present settled in Lowell, must con-
vince every one who reads his letter of
the wonderful curative qualities ot V go-
tine as a thorough cleanser and puritier
of the blood.
IIyoe Park, Mass., Feb. 15. 1876.
Mr. H. R Stevkns.
Dear Sir. — About ten years ago my
health failed through the depleting effects
of dyspepsia; nearly a year later I was
attacked by typhoid fever in its worst,
form. It settled in mv back, and took the
foim of a large deep-seated abscess, which
was fifteen months in gathering. I had
two surgical operations by the best skill
in the State, but received no permanent
j cure. I suffered great pain ft times, and
was constantly weaketud bv a profuse
discharge. 1 also lost small pieces ot
bone at different times.
Matters ran on thus about seven years,
till May, 1874, when a friend reconv
mended me to go to your office, and talk
with you of the virtue of Vegetine. I did
so, and by your kindness passed through
vour manufactory, noting the ingredients.
&c., bv which your remedy is produced.
fiv wha' 1 saw and heard I gained some
coffi-'ence in Vegetine.
I commenced taking it soon after, but
felt worse from its effects; still I perse-
vered, and soon felt it was benefiting me
in o her respects. Yet I did not see the
results 1 desired until I had taken it faith-
fully for a little more than a ye tr, when
the difficulty in the back was cured; and
lor nine months I have enjoyed the best
of health.
I have in that time gained twenty-five
pounds ot flesh beinu heavier than ever
before in my life, and I was never more
able to perform labor than now.
During the past few weeks I had a
scrofulous swelling as large as my fist
gather 011 another part of my body.
I took Vegetine faithfully, and it re-
moved it level with the surface in a month.
I think I should have been cured of my
main trouble sooner if I had taken larger
doses, after having become accustomed to
its effect*.
Let your patients troubled with scrofula
or kidney diseases understanJ that it
takes time to eure chronic diseases; and.
if they will patiently take Vegetine, it
will, in my judgment cure them.
With great obligations I am
Yours very trulv.

Pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church.

Dallas Herald Press Dispatch.
London, j.tti. 29.—The press as-
sociation uiulerstaiKls that upon the
announcement that the government
would consider the money vote to he
a vote of confidence, Lords Gran-
ville, Ripon and Kirnberiy, and
sume of the other opposition leaders,
hastily conferred together, and alto-
gether no definite resolution was
taken. It it understood that the op-
position will accept the government's
challenge, and arrange its whole eas-
tern policy. Lotd Huntington pro-
posed a postponement of debate, }.o
as to give the country an opportunity
to express its opinion. It is expect-
ed the debate will occupy four
nights. If the government is defeat-
ed pailiament will be immediately
dissolved, hut defeat is almost im-
possible. The conservatives are
confident of a majority ol fifty.
Brussels, Jan. 29.—The Inde-
pendence Bcl^e has tile following
special from Vienna: "Austria,
like the other powtrs, consider that
the peace' conditions require gieac
mollification as regards the agrand-
izement of Servia and Montenegro,
and the retrocession of Bess Arabia.
Russia's demands in regard to in-
demnity are deemed inadmissable
because tending to perpetuate the
occupation of Bulgaria. Austria
will immediately send a note to the
powers on these points.
The concentration of Russians at
Adrianople continues.
The Times correspondent at Bel-
grade states that Prince Ballenberg,
son of Alexander ol Hese, will be
appointed regent of Bulgaria.
The Tunes correspondent, be-
sieged in Eizeroum, writes, January
15th : Tvphus raging, two hundred
and fifty have died. Tnete are 10,-
000 sick and wounded in the hos-
pital.
A special telegraphic dispatch to
the Standard, from Belgrade, on
Monday, says: After a tour days'
battle the Turks were defeated near
Rustchuk by forty thousand Ser-
vians. The hospitals here have
been ordered to prepare for three
thousand wounded.
The Turkish government is hav-
ing difficulty in maintaining order
in the capital. Among the tens and
thousands of refugees from Rouma-
nia ate many armed Circassians.
These have already plundered the
towns, and are flocking into Con-
stantinople laden with booty. The
government wishes to take charge of
them and send them into Asia. Ap-
palling misery prevails fram the
Bosphorous to the Gulf of Salonica.
The whole coast is crowded with
terrified Mohammedans. Transpor-
tation across the straits is lacking,
and hundreds are perishing from
cold, hunger and exhaustion, and no
succor is possible Cim.fi" ttie panic
and confusion in the capital is aba-
'ted.

New Orleans, Jan. 29.—The
hiding place of Wells is not yet dis-

gressing. In regard to the rule for
contempt against United States Com-
missioner Lane, Deputy Collector

A Lost Son.
My Son, Samuel Thomas McCloud:
It has been a long time since I
heard one word from you, not sincc
about a week after you left me, and
if you wish to save my life, my son,
tor God's sake let me hear from you.
Whether you ;<re doing well or ill
let me know where yuu are, or your
mother's heart will break. I have
tried in every way to find out vour
whereabouts, and influential men
have helped me, but not one word
can we leai n ; and the grief it has
caused me you can never know.
And the man to whom you were a
witness, acted a rascally part by you.
He sent men after you who pretend-
ed to be sheriffs, but wtre false like
himself. They pretended to be
such, but had 110 more title to the
name than you had. So come home,
there is tio danger. The criminal
himself has been sent to the peniien-
tiaiy for fifteen years; and it you
choose to, you can prosecute his
false sheriffs ; and if you do not wish
to come, at least let me know where
you are or it will kill me. I priy
for you not only day and night, but
hourly. Farewell, my darling son-

LERDISTN LEVYING TRIBUTE
A Party of Mexican? from Texas
Carry Out a National Game Upon
Their Own Soil-
Special to the Galveston News.
Laredo, via Brownsville, Jan. 27*
—News has reached here that a par-
ty of fifty Mexicans, mostly from
Texas, under command of Col. Y
Salinas, an adherent of Lerdo. at-
tacked the towns of Candela, Savi-
nas and Hidalgo, in the State of Ta-
m:iulipas, on the 22d inst, They
seized the principal men of these
towns and forced them to pay $6000.
So rapid were their movements that
the inhabitants thought they were
three separate parties. Cavalry
started in pursuit of them from dif-
ferent points, upon which they sepa-
rated, and twenty of the band crossed
into Texas below Laredo last night.
It is sa d the raid was planned at
this place.
The dispatches announced the
death of George P. Gordon, inventor
of the celebrated Gordon printing
press, at Norfolk, Va., on the 28th
of January. Gordon was sixty-
eight years of age. Only a few
years ago he made valuable im-
provements in his job presses, which
have had great popularity for years.

The project of converting a part
of the great desert in Africa into a
highway for commerce by re-open-
ing a channel which once connected
it with the Atlantic ocean, is still be-
ing advocated in England. The
great plain or hollow in the desert is
said to be about 500 miles long and
about 120 miles wide, with a depres-
sion of some 200 feet below the sea
level. By letting in the sea, vessels
would be able to penetrate into the
heart of Africa, whose rich anil va-
ried products would thus be brought
within easy reach of the civilized
world.
Several days ago Glover asked the
House to furnish him a clerk and a
couple of experts to aid him in an
investigation of the Treasury De-
partment. The resolution was re-
ferred to committee on accounts,
and that is the last heard of it. Why
this dillitoiiness? From Glover's
rcmatks the public have good rtason
to believe there is no little rottenness
in that quarter that should be un-
eaitiled and thoroughly aired.

New York, Jan. 27.—The Amer-
ican Bible Revision Committee held
its monthly meetings, at the Bible
House, Thursday, Friday and Satur
day. Rev. Philip Schoff, president,
reports that the Old Testament com-
pany have neatly finished the first
revision of Jeremiah, and will next
take up Ezekiel. They had previ-
ously revised the Pentateuch, Psalms
and Prophet Isaiah. The New Tes-
tament committee have reached the
eleventh chapter of the Second Epis-
tle to tine Corinthians. In the first
revision the Gospels, the Acts, and
two-thirds of the Epistles have been
revised so far, but will require a sec-
ond revision. The American com-
mittee are but little behind their
brother revisers in England.
Cotton Spinning in Russia.
Russian cotton-spinners will ob-
tain, in time, a vety important posi-
tion in the manufacturing world.
More than 3,500,000 pounds of cot-
ton now come yearly to Russia from
Central Asia, chiefly bv the Oren-
burg railway to Niin Novgorod and
Moscow, from Boskhnra and Khiva.
Large quantities also begin to come
from Turtan, and of a quality quite
equal to any short cotton of the Uni-
ted States. Twenty years ago the
arrival in Russia of a caravan from
Asia was regarded as an extraordi-
nary event.
In Gen. Thomas Ewings' great
speech delivered to the House of
Representatives on the bill to repeal
the tesumption act is the lollowing:
"Mr. Eu.mett, wha is struggling
to build his road across Southern
Ohio, told me recently that he had
enough laborers offciing to build his
road without other compensation
than enough bread and meat to keep
the poor machines of their bodies 111
working order, asking nothing for
clothing, nothing for wives or chil-
dren, nothing to lay up in the store
for winter; and this, too, in the
midst of bountiful harvests, in a te-
yion one ot the fairest ever fashioned
by the Almighty for the abode of
man."
