HE reputation this excellent medicine enjoys,
1: is derived from its cures, many of which are
truly marvellous. Inveterate cases of Scrofulous
mosew., where the system seemed saturated with
corruption, have been purified and cured by it.—
Scrofulous anections and disorders, which were
aggravated by the scrofulous contamination until
they were painfully atnicUng, have been radical
ly cured In such`great numneta in almost every
Section of the country, that the public scarcely
need to be Inform edoi its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison IS one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and un.
felt tenant of the organism undermines the con
stitution, and invites the attack of enfeebling or
fatal diseases, which excites a suspicion or its
presence. Again, it, seems to breed infection
throughout toe body, and then, on a favorable oc
casion, rapidly develops into one or the other of
its hideous forms, either on the surface or among
the vitals. In the latter, tubercles nay be sud

formed In the liver, or It shows its - presence by
eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcerations °dome

a bottle of Sarsaparilla inadvisable, even wheteno

During the four years of war fir the
suppression of a wicked rebellion the pres
ent candidate of the Democratic Party
for Congress was Editor Of the Bedford
Gazette. It is not our intention to make
personal warfare or' .to indulge in unfoun
ded charges. It is but just and right
however that the people of the District
should know where and how he stood
doting those times of peril to the nation.
We know of no better way in which to ex
hibit his true pisiition titan to permit. him
to speak for himself.. We therefore give
below a few articles published by himself
and in his own paper. We invite and defy
contradiction. We give but a few and
these are of various dates. The author,
it will be seen, is a person very positive
and determined in his opinions and views.
If he was so terribly mistaken in
may he not be in error now in regard to
the views he entertains and the doctrines
he advocates.
The first article we give will be fouud in
the Bedford Gazette of Feb. 28.1 t
and read as follow,:
3. F. MEYERS (N CONSCRIPTION
"Tin. CONSCRIPITION BILL."
"We take up our pen not to condemn
the measure whose title forms the caption
of this article, but to warn Congress and
the President against its passage.
"We have already denounced it as a
bold infraction of the Federal Constitu
tion and a contemptuous invasion of the
reserved rights of the States. We have
exposed its design to give the sceptre of
despotism into the hand of the president,
and have sounded the alarm to the people
in regard to its insidious purpose towards
the republic. 'But our duty does notecase
h W. nwe it if. not to ourselves and
our fellow men, most certainly to "those
in authority," to utter at least a word of
warning to the men upon whose ac
tion depends the fate of the bill. We say
n Congress, stay your encroaching hand,
lest you wake the sleeping lion of Penn
sylvania's pride. We say to the Presi
ident make not a Dionysius of yourself
for there are yet Damons among the
people of the North who will dare to re
sist any usurper! Your design against
the liberty of the people and the sover
eignty of the States, is needless and wan
ton.
"You can obtain soldiers to carry on
your war, by using the means which the
Constitution provides, and by Thaking
drafts according to State regulations, or
where none such exist, according to the
laws of Congress in such case mad and pro
vided. The people know this, and, there
fore, regard this conscription bill as an
outrage upon the State and as an attempt
to rob them of their liberty. Yon have
asked much of the people of the North,
and much have they granted. You de
manded their substance and they gave of
it; you asked for their blood and they
poured it out; and, now, after all their
meek submission to your exactions, after
all their ineffable suffering and privation
you would wrest from them what they
love better than even family and friends,
Constitutional freedom! Do not, as you
value the peace of the North, the stabili
ty of the Government, nay, your very lives,
imagine that our people are such slaves
as to submit to so great a wrong! We say
to you, in friendly caution, beware; The
people sent their sons and brothers is die
for you, when you pretended to fight for
the right; they will die, themselves, rather
than yield the right, and that, too, in de
fiance of any foe, be he perjured rebel or
forsworn official."
It will be observed that this article ap
peared just before the passage of the Act
of Congress to increase the army by Con
scription.
Immediately thereafter the following,.ar
tide appeared in the Bedford Gazette of
March 13th, 1863:
B. F. METERS ON PROVOST RARSER
"The Conscription Bill recently passed
by Congress, authorizes the appointment
by the President of a Provost Marshal for
every Congressional district, 'as flied by
law next preceding the enrollment.' This
officer is to be la kind of general agent for
the President, (or rather the Military Dic
tator,) and is to arrest deserters from the
army, to detect, seize and confine spies,
and to obey all lawful orders of and regu
lations of the Provost Marshal General.
' In short lie is to be the ruler, owner and
keeper of the people within the limits of
his district, a pretty tyrant, uniting in his
person the powers of a civil magistrate,
the authority of a military commander and
the functions of a police detective. When
the President shall see fit to undertake an
enforcement of the Conscription, we shall
look with some anxiety and more curiosity
for the name of the wretch who will not
scruple to disgrace himself and the com
munity in which he lives by accepting this
odious office. Let that man, whoever he
may be, make up his mind that he eon not live
a.peaeefui life, nor die en honorable death.
Leakim remember that he makes himself
the hireling of usurped power the million
o f the enemy of popular liberty, the tool
de disgraced and doomed Administration.
Lethim remember that he becomes a vol
untary instruelent fir the destructien of
the Constitutli and therefore , .I,hat the
very discharge of ta his official duties, makes
him a perjurer and a traitor. And let him
be warned that the . -.ple will not Bo g er
him nor his master .. wrest from them
the rights guaranteed them by the blood
bought institutionk of their fathers. The
name of the man who accepts this office
will be a stench in the nostrils of every
true friend of human. liberty forever and
forever! The finger of scorn will be point
ed at him as a second Arnold, who would
barter thei citadel of his country's freedom
for the gratification of his own avarice and
ambition. The people will' , brand, him
with shame, for to do so is their only de
fence against the usurpations of power.
. 1i
They will put a sco s sting into 'evevy
pore Of his body . will turn from him
in loathing and disgul shunning the con
taminating touch of his political. leprosy.
The lash of popular indignation will 'pur
sue him, through the ..world, his effigy
hanging in every town and - hts • name a
bye-word among the pw.' and eking
out a misereblerenristengo down

WHOLE NO. 3633
Immediately after the Presidential eleo
tion of 1884, the Editor of the Gazelle, be
came exceedingly Pious and began to
prophesy. Witness the following which
appeared in his paper of Nov. 11 1804.
CARTHAGO EST DELENDA!
The die is cast. From this hour the Re
public is dead. Weep, oh ye heavens, and
shroud the earth, ye clouds, for the last
best earthly hope of civilized man, is en
: eoftined in the usurpation which has re
sulted in the continuance of Abraham
Lincoln in the Presidential office: Clank
your chains, oh miserable slaves! Their
grating sounds are the music which de
lights the ear of your emperor and his
vice-gerents. March on, ye victims of his
conscription! The bayonets that bristle
at your backs, are the loveliest sight that
can greet the vision of the Christian, ad
mirers of him who calls you from wife
and children, to the enfevered swamp, the
blood-streaming trench, and the noisome
dungeon. Thus shall it be, till the ven
geance of insulted Heaven shall' be ex
hausted upon a nation whose rulers spit
nisei the dictates of Mercy, stop their was
to the pleadings of Pity, and blaspheme
God Himself, iu their shanieful idolatry of
Mammon and the Negro. But a day shall
came, (when the fiends *ho now defy the
wrath of Deity shall have been sufficient
ly' scourged by the avenging lightnings of
ust ice I on which, like the hosts of Sten
nacherib, the oppressors of the people
',hall be scattered and destroyed. There
will be a time when another Winkelried
shall plunge into the serried ranks of steel:
clad Despotism, and with that cry that
shall ring in the ears of the latest genera
tion. ••Make way for Liberty!" break the
iron wall erveted between the People and
Human Riglits.
"Fear not ?he tyrants shall rule forever.
Nor the priests of a bloody faith
stand on the brink of a mighty river,
MON, waves they have tainted with Death."
In March 1865 (See Gazette. of March al,
18650 he encouraged the soldiers at the
Republic in the army and the friend; of
the Union throughout the land, in the
following manner:,
"DO THE PEOPLE WI:STALE TILE WILE?"
"The re-election of Mr. Lincoln to the
presidency, is regarded by many simple
minded persons as proof positivit of the
popular approval of the policy of military
coercion. Had there been a free and fair:-
~ .lection, and had the result proved the
same, there might be some ground for this
misconceived notion. But even then, un
der the Condition of things that prevails
now, there would have been excellent
reasons to doubt that the majority expres
sed their true sentiments in voting for Mr.
Lincoln. It is certainly not to be denied
that the people, the majority, dono longer
voluntarily sustain the war. They do sus
tain it, but it is upon compulsion. Nobody
volunteers now,except for lucre. Nobody
goes into service, unless he cannot keep out
of it. The loudest war-shriekers pay the
highest prices to keep their carcasses clear
of •government blue.' The most zealous
advocates of military coercion forswear
their own souls, rather than shoulder the
musket they are called updn to carry.—
Nay, there is, now-a-days, not one
man in fifty, who from mere motives of
patriotism, goes into the ranks of the fed
eral armies. In short, the people of the
loyal states are compelled, against their
own will, to support the' policy of the ad
ministration in continuing the war. If
this be not so, why is it that we have a
compulsory draft every few weeks? or why
is it that every hamlet and cross-roads in
the country, is made the rendezvous of a
provost guard? No, no, the truth is plain
and not to be hidden. The majority of
the people do not heartily, or willingly,
sustain the continuation of the war. Men
may dislike the assertion of this truth,
but it is truth, nevertheless:, It is a fact
so self-evident that the most subtle advo
cate of the war will not attempt to covet
it from the public discernment. Since such
is the state of things, is Mr. Lincoln now
obeying the will of the people? That is
the question. Let his friends answer it,
if they can."
Soon after this publication Abraham
Lincoln was assassinated. The manner
in which this act was received throughout
I
the country. and the world, did' not seem
to be pleasing to the present Democratic
candidate. It does not appear however
to have driven from him the pious frame of
into which lie had previously fallen. The
"Bedford Ni:tte - of April 28, 1865, con
tained the following:
THE IDOLATRY OF THE TIME.
Hero worship is the besetting sin of na
tions. X successful general, a great ruler,
or very freently a hideous impostor, is
made the idol of the people's hearts, until
the Almighty IComiclast strikes out of ex
istence the god created in his stead. At
tachment to princes and rulers is eminent
ly right and proper. thie respect for
those who administer the laws, should be
shown in the deportment of every citizen.
But when mere man comes to be worship
ed as a god, when the soul's affections are
drawn away from Calvary and fixed upon
some fancied earthly hero, when attach-
ment for rulers and respect for those who
administer the laws, grow into adoration
bf their persons and character, idolatry
and not cluistianity becomes the religion
of the people. Farther removed from
heaven than Hindoo or New Zealander,
he who, in the light• of God's reveale.
truth, sets up in his heart the false god of
supposed mortal perfection. Better, far
better, to be ignorant of the blessed Gos
pel of peace, than knowing it, to mock its
Divine Author, by the practice of idolatry
beneath the very Cross whick it reveals,
And yet in this very hour and in this very
community, men professing to be Chris
tians are guilty of this deadly sin. Nay
ministers of the gospel themselves set
their hearers the example in this worship
of human idols. Their text is no longer
"Christ and Him crucified," bug Abraham
Lincoln and him assassinated. Nor are
their discourses confined to reproof of the
spirit which prompted Ulf foul deed of the
President's murder, or tti efforts to correct
the state of the public morals which the
circumstances of his death so clearly indi
cate. In that case there would be but lit-
tie room for, complaint. But their
ser
mons are mere fulsome eulogies and high
sounding panegyrics•of a man about whose
_ .
public career people have always differed.
They impiously compare him to Moses,
styling him "God's anointed," at the
same time, like the Pharisee, thanking
God that they are not "as other men are,"
their hearts having never harbored an ill
thought of the lamented dead.—Nay, they
go farther and declare they can have no
respect for those who do not' regard the
Memory ofthe late President as they do,
and that such persona cannot be consider
ed as Cpristians. if the conduct of these
preachers be not idolatrous, then the veri-
est giaour is a believer of the gospel, But
the consequences of their stewardship will
be upon their heads, and at their hands
will be required the souls of those whom
their idolatrous conduct, coupled with
their intolerant utterances, have driven
from the sanctuary of the Jiving God.
When Richmond fell and every Patriot
tit the land was rejoicing and all true men
were giving deserved credit to our brave
soldiers the "Bedford Gazette" of April 7,
186.5, found room for the following:
"Richmond and Petersburg were evacu

TIMINGS TO BE REMEMBERED
As the election approaches! the public
mind should awaken to the actual condi
tion of things, take In the whole truth,
and prepare to decide the issue upon the
facts. In order to do thhilhere are many
things to be brought to the recollection.
Among others,
It shnuki be remembered that the
.late
rebellion, which was the immediate cause
of the national debt and taxes which now
bear heavily upon the people, was inaugu
rated under and by a Democratic adminis
tration, and carried on by the Democratic
party under Democratic leaders.
It should be remembered that the Dem
ocratic leaders and their rebel, : allies (for
there are rebels still) are intluenoed by
the same relentless hostility to, the princi
ples of Republican liberty nom• as (luring
the rebellion, and are acting in convert,
through thesame treasonable agencies, to
regain control of the Government.
It should.be remembered that the het
tled policy of the Democratic party is to
repudiate and annul all the constintionat
amendments and laws of Congress con
ferring equal rights upon all classes of city
zens, and all the acts of Congress recon
structing the Southern States. u' flat,
finally, slavery may be restored.
It should 1i remembered that. Nhould
they attain power, they have in many por
tions of the Union expressed a determina
tion to repudiate the national debt, there
by degrading the national honor, and
making us the scorn of the civilized world.
And it should be particularly and es:-
peciay borne in mitid that the DClllOCra t -
ic party is the openl avowed friend I.f
Free Trade, and conetiently -the enemy
of American industry.
These, and many m e things of the
same character, should be .membered by
the people of Pennsylra ring the
coming plimpaign, and especially should
they be kept clearly hi view at: the ballot
box—the arbiter of popular will.—lfor

BISMARCK'S BRLIGIOrS CUARACTER.-
The NeW YOrk O b server has an article tie
signed to show that whatever may have
been Bismarck's previous character he is
now a man of decided Protestant religious
convictions. It prints extracts from a let
ter of his written in Berlin in 1862,ju.5t
fore the commencement of the war with
Austria, iii which he Makes strong religi
onsprofessions. Some of the sentences of
the letter are as follows:
''Although I am hard pressed for time
I cannot leave unanswered an interpella
tion which is addressed to me from an
holiest heart with an appeal to Christ's;
name. I Ntncerely regret if I give offence
to believing Christians ; but I am certain
that in my position such offence is unavoid
able. In the camp of my necessary polit
ical opponents there are, no doubt, many
Christians who are far ahead of me on the
way of salvation, and yet, on account of
what on both sides belongs to earth, I
must live in conflict with them. Would
to God that, besides what the world
knows of me, I had no other sins on my
soul, for which I hope forgivegess only by
trusting in the blood of Christ."
Tut: GE.A3LiN LEADERS.-Dr. M. B,
Riddle, a resident of Germany, son of the
Rev. Dr. David M. Biddle, fomierly. of
Pittsburg, says, that the King of Prussia
is a decidedly Christian man. So also is
the great Counseller of War, General You
3loltke. The Commander in Chief of all
the military forces, General Von. Boon. is
regarded as one of the most consistent,
outspoken Christians, who assembles his
to ole household morning and evening,for
ta&ily devotions, in which he leads-;--an
observance which is not as common with
Continental Christians as it is elsewhere.
The same holds true also of Count Bis.
marck. When it is remembered, that in
Germany, a large tnumber of men in offi
cial stations, as elsewWre, are of a differ
ant stamp, it is all the more remarkable
and noteworthy, that the leader; of the
nation and the present war, .are men of
high moral and religious tone.
GENERAL SFrERIDAN'S
Tribune correspondent at 'Berlin send,
the following extract of a letter from
General Sheridan, dated Rheims, the Bth
instant: "There seems little of the war
left except The siege of Paris, and that
will not save France. It is possible that
the French troops have not done so well as I
think they might have done on one or two
occasions which I witnessed, from the fact
that the poor fellows found thenme;v ,
badly handled by their .commas;..,.
they could see no equivalent to
ed by the sacrifice of their lives.
"A soldier wants success when_ T r- .•
lives have to be sacrificed, but French
generalship put this out of the question
in every battle which I have witnessed."
