Wood?rfui N SUCCESS OF VEGETINE Im It strikes at the root ot disease by pnrl- An tying the blood, restoring the liver and me kidneys to healthy action, Invigorating wo the ner tops system. W< Reliable Evidence. MR.H.R. STEVENS:? Dear His?I will most cheerfully add my testimony to the great number you have already received in favor ot your.greataud good medictue, Vegetine, for i do not think enough can be said in Its pialse, for 1 was troubled over thirty years with that dreadful disease. Catarrh, and hai such bad coughing spells that It would seem as though I could never breathe any more, and VeeeUne haa cured me; and 1 do teel to thank God all the time there Is so xood a medecine as Vegetine, and 1 also think It one of the best medicines lor coughs and ? weak sinking feelings at the stomach, and ? advise everybody to take the Vegetine, for I can assure them that it Is one of the best medicines that evor was. MRS. L. GORE, Cor. Magazine & Walnut bts., Cambridge, ^ THOUSANDS SPEAK. Vegetine Is acknowledged aid recommended by physicians and apothecries to 11 be the best purifier and cleanser ot the blood yet discovered, and thousands speak . In lis praise who have been restored to health. ?? & Report from a Practical Chemist nml I1 Apothecary. Boston, January 1,1874. Tw . *> ?t!??T),la la to r^rtlfv thai I hive sold at retail dozen (1852 bottles) ot your Vegetlue since April 12.1870, and can truly say that It bas given the best satisfaction of any remedy for the complaints i >r wnicii It Is recommended that 1 ever I s jld. Hcaroely a day passes without some | ol my customers testifying to Its merits on themselves or their friends. 1 am perlectly cognizant ot several cases of Scrofulous Tumors being cured by Vegetlue alone In tills vicinity. Ytry Respectfully yours, AI OILM A.N', M Broadway. To U.K.Stevens, K?q.| :v E C E T I N El L Will Cleanse Scrofula from the System. 2 HONEST OPINION. ? MR.H.K. BTHVENSbl DeakBik?This Is to show that my son was taken sick in January, 181M, with o Ucrofala, which came out In large sores uud ulcers on his leg and hip. His leg was swelled more than twice its natural size. Hu had several doctorsof high standing In Ki their profession?two from Boston and three from Charlestowu- without get ling a bit better. He was obliged to lie wherever he was placed, for he had no use of his limbs whatever. When we had given up all hopes of his living we were told to try Vegetine, the great blood remedy; and he had taken It but. a short time be/ore we te could see a great change. The sores run so ' had that we had to change the cloths four lr or Ave times a day. Still, he was getting better; for he could move his limbs and help himself a little. He was soon able to alt up in tied, and, by constant use of Vege- n( tine, It has cured him. He has a lame leg, rt which he will probably have for life; hut we all honestly believe 11 we had used Vegetine before we bad bothered with those doctors, it would have saved the use ot bis leg. anil restored it to natural neaitu. I hope all those troubled with Scrofula will read this testimony of me and my son, t,b who is now well and able to s|>eak for himsell. CATHERINE MAHONEY, DANIEL MAIIONEY, 18 Treutou St., Charlestown, Mass.

'or the past few months thg rage in the iastern cities has been "pound parties,' , nd from all we hare read about them m< nd what We saw last night, we are con-' inced that it is a very "amusing amuse- j aent." The first party of the kind j ^ ras held last night at the Weisel ilusical Hal 11, for the benefi^! ^ iftbe Children's Home. The hall was q :rowded, and as tho admission was a pound of "something," everybody came d: prepared. The party was a grand success, the p hall being overcrowded. It was organ- F ized by the election of Samuel Laughlin, ? chairman; Judge Cranmer, secretary. J and Samuel Adams, treasurer. W U. Duffield was elected auctioneer, and he tuned up his voice in regular y town-crier style, and commenced the disposal of pound packages in very latest C approved style. Before the sale com- ^ menced a committee was appointed to j report rules to govern the sale of package. The committee, after consultation, ? reported as follows: Rule 1. The rackages donated this evening shall be sold by auction, to tho ! highest bidder. i. Tho successful bidder shall come j j to the stand and pay for the article and j ^ open the package, the contents of which shall be announced. i 3. The purchaser shall have the privilege of donating tho package to the Children's Homo without further charge. Tho report was unanimously adopted and the fun commenced in earnest, a About the first package purchased was f by Archio Paxton, for which ho paid s $1.00. Upon opening it, it was found to j contained one ten cent bar of soap. This \ was greeted with great laughter. The ? next package disposed of, which created amusement, was to Mr. Will List. It j was a very largo parcel and brought c $'J35. The package contained a pair of a red striped hoso tilled with saw-dust, and j though we blush to say it, the ladies gig. eled audibly. Harry List then bought a child's sucking bottle I at G5c, amid great laughter. A number I of other articles were disposed of, when I Colonel Allison paid a dollar note for an u empty box, which bore the following in- c scription: "True representative of the li industry, wealth and charity of the city h of VVhneling. ii That's the way the money Is tnuUc, 1< 'that's the way tho money goes." John Pendleton then paid 55 cents for a bottle of something that looked like whidky, but more probably coffee, and * Ilarry McLure forked over 40 cents for a half dozen clothes pins. Archie ? I'axton contributed ono doilar for a ' pound of cotton batting, which he contributed to the homo. JBroso List got a large beer mug, empt}', for 50 cents and Harry List a "pound" of eggs for the same amount. A. B. Wilson paid h fifty cents for a tin whistle. Harry List c paid fifty cents for a piece of bologna ^ sausage, and John Pendleton got stuck for a couple more pounds which proved valuless. D. C. List contributed sixty cents for a dozen sticks of candy, and 81 Archie Puxton seventy cents tor a small e amount of bominv, dono up in a largo ^ package. 0 Thoro were a largo number of pack- )' ares sold which the want of spaco f?r- | 0 bids us to mention. The bidding was I n animated, and all present seemed desirous c ol contributing their little nute for the 2 worthy cause which the entertainment a was gotten up for. The sales amounted li t) $54.55, and not half ot the packages n were sold Tho party will be continued n this evening, and while pound packages c will be received cheerfully, they ure not I necessary to gain udinission. All arc e welcome. "We expect to see another w large crowd in attendance this evening, 1 Pur twilight contemporary committed another one of its ludieurous blunders in its report of the examination of Melissa Robinson beforo the County Court, which took placo on Wednesday alternoon. At the close of the examination 11 Mr. Good, one of the attorneys for the >' defense, stated to tho Court that from & what he could understand Mr. Cracraft lid not anticipate n conviction. Mr. l< Jacob Kemple, who was conducting the a prosecution in the absence of Mr. Cra- Sl ;raft, said that ho would venture to state a' ,ho position of the Prosecuting Attorney. * ' [t was this that from what evidence Rl hat was elicited at tho first examination >f tho case, he did not expect to convict n' icr of murder in the lirst degree, but SF .hat sho w as undoubtedly guilty of vol- ^ intary manslaughter, and he expected j ^ .o conviei nor 01 lucsamo. iuu was 1.110 | r language used by Mr. Kemplo and not ?' ihattho defendant was not guilty of mur- a: ier, but was guilty of homicide.

Moundsvillk, .March 30, 1870. j Editors of the Keglster: l^uite a consternation was occasioned | ; among tho members o! the Moundsville , Dramatic Society during Wednesday and yesterday ami much depression of spirit 1 was expressed on tho part of the comI munity, as it began to bo noised about 5 that some hitch had occurred in the dramatis personue of the company and they would on account of this trouble be unT able to perform as per engagei ment. Tho entertainment was 1 to come oil at the school hall to-night. The play selected was 1 "The Drunkard's Warning." It had j been thoroughly advertised, the programmes were printed, every member had his part assigned him, and oaeh one " felt that much weight and "mighty irai port'' were attached to the proper rcndi, tion of his piece. Mr. J. St. John C'ark son, an acknowledged actor of ability, is a i member of the club, and from his , reecognized skill in such matters, , held the position of stage manager, Ac. He was assigned the prin- 1 cipal character, and all was progressing i smoothly when, alas! in an evil moment Mr. Clarkson took a little "trip" to Wneeling, and not roturning as tho hour apt preached, producod all the worry and i mischief that have been stated above. What to do in the emergency | query, n was a loregone oonciuMon , i that * "The Drunkard's Warning" I i could not be produced with the prin[ cipal part omitted, anil yet no one tali adequate to the task or throwing hiia' self in the breach. After much deliber- i 1 ation it was decided to appoint a comi mittee of one to proceed without delay to your city and hunt up the tn Using actor, and it found, to use ail arts and devices ' to bring him to Moundsville ("dead or i alive' ) in tinm to proceed with the play, i Up to the present time no tidings i have been received either from the comj mittee of one or 1 Mr. Spivins,'1 and at this writing it looks very much as if "The Drunkard's Warning" will i have to be postponed to a more tavora- , ; ble opportunity, which very naturally places the Society in a had fix, and is very J apt to detract not a little from the halo of glory that surrounds "Spivins " repu- j tation in the dramatic held.
