A STEP TO THE PACIFIC.
The agents of the Kansas Pacific Railway
present, in another column, an enterprise
possessing features which seem W* merit
special comment. Having built their road
from Kansas City to Sheridan, and found it
a profitable and promising investment, the
Managers now propose to continue it to
Denver, and thus open up the trade to the
Rocky Mountains. That much, it is hoped,
will be completed by June next- and its
agents, Messrs. Dabnev, Morgan A Co.,
and M. K. Jessup A Co., bankers and
merchants of high reputation, now tender,
through our columns, a loan of #6,500,000
for this purpose.
These gentlemen state with clearness
the reasons which have induced them to
give this loan their indorsement. The Kan
sas Pacific Railway now runs through the
centre of Kansas, and is in suceesssful and
profitable operation for over four hundred
miles. We remember the country through
which it passes as a wide, open plain, ap
parently as boundless and rolling as the sea,
known only to a few tubes of wild, roving
Indians, and occasionally to a venturesome
squad of stage-guards and herdsmen, who
ministered a primitive hospitality every
fifteen or twenty miles. Topeka, Salina
and Manhattan were little more than the
geographical designations of towns that
hoped to he. Hays, Ellsworth, Shetidan,
and the twenty stopping-places now upon
its time-table, did not exist, even in the
imagination of the pioneers. Danver was a
mere cluster of mining cabins and Indian
huts. The Cheyennes and Arrapaboesheld
solemn council or high revelry in its ways.
There was no law. but a great deal of rude,
summary justice, which grieved sober be
lievers in habeas corpus and trial by jury.
Now, Denver is as neat, well built, and
comfortable as Hartford, with schools and
churches, rows of brick stores, hotels, and
tasteful dwellings, which recall the luxury
and comfort of the East. Nature has
rimmed and fringed it with the noble Rocky
Mountains, whose bills glisten in snow,
while their sides are clothed with deep and
rich midsummer greener}'.
It is now proposed to unite this city with
the East by an extension ol the Kansas Pa
cific Railway. To do this, it will be neces
sary to build 220 miles of road. The Mana
gers are wise not to defer it, in the vain hope
of being able to induce Congress to vote
them large subsidies. The Government has
built one road to the Pac'f • at a great ex
pense. Private citizens are quite ready and
willing to build another, especially when
those who ask their aid can show as good a
balance sheet,as the Kansas Managers. St.
Louis is on the natural rou'e ftpm New York
to the Rocky Mountains and San F,nciaco.
It is the metropolis of the mighty Valley
of the Mississippi: "id the extension of this
road is a new ari important step in the
great highway between St. Louis and San
Francisco. The I.'nion Pacific (Omaha) Road
has as much business as it eau manage; and
we have grave doubts whether it will be

midwintcr snow and ice of the Sier.a
Nevada*. A through road must finally trav
erse the warm countries of New Mexico and
Arizona, along the thirty-fifth parallel or be
low it. General Palmer has surveyed a ronte
where snow rarely falls—every mile of which
opens rich mining deposits. It embraces
the oldest towns on the Continent. The
country demands such a road, and this ex
tension is a step toward completing it.
It is interesting to note the progress of a
railway which draw.- its business from a
country ten years ago conceded to the buffa
lo and the aborigines. In April the Kansas
road earned, in gross inc0me,5217,914 49, of
which $93,291 01 were balanced by expenses,
leaving a net profit of $124,622 88. In May
the earnings were $222,103 46; the expenses
$107,987 77, leaving a profitof $ 114,175 69.
Two months' aggregate,s23B,79B 57. There
are few roads in our older and riper Fates
that would not be content with as good a re
sult. Bat the truth is, these new countries
have much growth in them. We have but
to touch our Western prairies and hills with
the iron waod, and cities spring up; towns
clustei along the streams and highways, and
broad plains blossom with wheat, corn, and
barley, school houses and churches take the
place ofthe block house and the fort, and the
great rivers are disturbed bv steam and wa
ter-wheel, So our civilization has marched
over the prairie*, is advancing over the
plains, and in a few months we shall have
the vast treasures of Colorado and the gold
countries under contribution. The Piesi
dent, in his last Inaugural, poiuted to those
hills as the "strong box," whose treasures
would pay the National debt. This railroad
is the key to open it. We, therefore, look
with pleasure upon this effort of private citi
zens t0 carry another road to the Pacific.
Ne must have at least three railways across
the Continent. Wc must enable the North
ern and Southern and Middle States respec
lively to reach the furthest West by the
most convenient way. We look upon the
ctate of Kansas with an interest not far re
moved from affection. This child of tears,
and blood and agony, now marches to the
dignity and grandeur of an empire, and well
deserves the proud, fond name of "the Mas
sachusctts of the West.'' To this road she
owes much of her prosperity; ami, now that
its owner-propose to carry it to Denver and
wed the Rocky Mountains to the Mississippi
\ alley, we hail them as men doing great Na
tional service, and earnestly hope they will
receive from our people prompt and earnest
support. The loan they offer is certainly a
good one. It yields high interest in gold,
has many years to run. is secured by large
grant.- of land and a profitable railway, and

A ROTTEN PLANK.
What the late copperhead Convention
lacked in honesty and consistency it made
up in brass and impudence. The fourth
resolution of their platform reads as follows:
/'■stolrnd, 5. That the movements now
being made for the amelioration of the con
dition of the laboring man bave our most
cordial co operation.
Co operation in behalf of the laboring
man. except just before election to gain his
votes, has never been a part of the creed of
copperhead party or its predecessor the
Democratic party. It is to-day and has
fcecu for years the open and unblushing ad
vocate of free-trade, which would reduce the
wages of the American laborer to a level
with British paupers. Its ablest loaders
have openly advocated free-trade for no oth
er reason than that it would reduce the
wages of the laboring man. How tko cop
perhead Convention could incorporate such
a plank in its platform and then place upon
it as a candidate, in preference to his poorer
rivals, one whose only claim was his wealth
coined from the sweat of the laboring poor,
passes cur comprehension. We knew that
the Convention was the embodiment of
brass and impudence but we did not think
it was capable of any such deliverances. The
copperhead party was the advocate, defend
er and ally of the slave holder's rebellion,
its leaders boldly promulgated the doctrine
that capital should own labor, one of its
brightest lights declared that free trade
which would reduce the wages of the Araer
ican laborer to ten cents a day would cover
the country with benefits and blessings, the
candidate they have nominated amassed a
large portion of his immense wealth by
grinding the faces of the laboring poor, who
worked his mines and railroads, and yet they
have the hardihood and hypocrisy to at
tempt to cajole the laboring man into voting
for the purse-proud aristocrat whom they
have nominated as their candidate for Gov
ernor. The policy of their party has always
bceu to make the rich richer and the poor
poorer. The poor man according to their
late preaching should be owned by the rich
man so that his board and clothing should
be his only reward for his labor and in order
that the proud aristocrat might grow rich and
fat upon tbc profits of the poor man's labor.
To this end they have been the friends aod
advocates of slavery, the hirelings of british
free-traders and the enemies of American
industry. Under the name of Democracy
they have ever been the upholders of aris
tocracy. like their rebel allies they carry
fa' o colors, and under the guise of friend
ship w. u!d earn power in order to blast the
hopes of the industrious, honest, laboring
poor. Falsehood and deception have al
ways been and still are the most prominent
characteristics of the party. In 1844 they
cried Polk. Dallas and the tariff of 1842 in or
der to carry Pennsylvania and the moment
they ascended to power they repealed the
tariff of 1842 and caused such damage to the
manufacturing interests of Pennsylvania
that she has not yet entirely recovered from
its effects. In 1,860 and 1861 and during the
whole war of the rebellion they called them
selves union men while in the very act of
aiding and abetting rebellion. Sucli is the
past record of the party that throws out the
above bait to American working men. It
is fa'se, dishonest, hypocritical. Let the
laboring man beware of ca-ring his vote for
a party that has always beeD his enemy and
the enemy of bis country. Its professions
are false, its intentions dishonest. Its rec
ord contradicts its professions. Let igno-

PACKER AND IIIS TAXES.
Carbon county and the borough of Mauch
Chunk, during the recent war, contracted a
large debt for bounty to those who went into
the army. Honorably to meet this debt it
became necessary to raise money Ly taxation.
The a-sessor assessed Asa Packer wiih one
million of dollars railroad stock, when in fact
he owned about four millions. Packer, like
other residents of Mauch Chunk, paid his
taxes the fir.-t, year, but to evade future
payment gave out that he had changed his
residence to the city of Philadelphia. The
alleged change not being apparent to any
one hut himself, (he and his family still con
tinuing to occupy the spacious mansion in
Mauch Chunk as before), the proper au
thorities again assessed upon him the usual
taxes as on all other residents of the
borough. He refused payment, again pro
testing that his residence was at the
Merchants Hotel, Philadelphia, and iho rc
su'r was the amount had to be recovered
from him by suit at law. and ever since
then the authorities of Mauch Chunk, with
mo*t wonderful kindness and magnanimity,
have permitted the poor man to repudiate
the payment of his share of the patriotic
bounty taxes, and required the rich men of
the town to pay their own share and Mr.
Packer's also; and all this on the pitiful
plea t hat he had changed his residence. The
fact is, he has opened a coal aud railroad
office in Philadelphia, but there stands his
elcj a ,t family residence, in Mauch Chunk,
occupied by himself and family year after
year, a* it has always been. Is not this a
miserable subterfuge, unworthy any honest
man, and much more a man who aspires to
the high and honorable places in the country?
Let hiiu set an example of which honorable
m n will uot be ashamed; and let him pay
his share of the taxes, due the soldier, his
widow, snd his orphan, before he asks their
votes or their influence to elevate hitn over
them as their ruler.— llarrisbnrg Tie

* 4 U RAY-HAIRED PATRIOTISM."
When Asa Packer was dining and wining
tie Ohio traitor, Tallandigham, before
Pennsylvania ftlt a rebel invasion, be was
di playing his true political colors as a rebel
sympathizer. Then came McCausland's
raid on Chambersbarg, and Lee's advance
to Gettysburg. Imagine the horror which
thrilled every Democratic heart in the Com
monwealth, when it was learned that the
rebel troops were sacking and burning Dem
ocratic property with no more compunction
than if its owners were Abolitionists dyed
in the wool. Copperhead sympathies
proved to be no protection whatever. The
Democratic mind, throughout the State
was demoralized and "all tore up," by this
revelation of rebel ingratitude. Then was
sten a touching spectacle! Yallandigham's
wealthy entertainer, that warm-hearted
friend of Southern rights, the Nabob of the
Lehigh, became a "gray-haired patriot."
and promised a continuance of wages to all
bis operatives who would volunteer. This
is the substance of the latest Democratic
electioneering novel. While the "wrinkled
front of war" was so far off as to be out of
sight from I'ennsylvanian eyes, Mr. Vallan
digham's friend Packer felt easy in the in
dulgence of his rebel sympathies. He saw
the case in another light when a ruthless
it.\ asion trampled on Democratic property
and threatened his railways, canals, coal
mines und banks with ruin. His "gray
haired patriotism" lay then, as now, all in
his pockets, and was never heard of, or sua
p-cted by his c'oscst friends, untii these
were threatened with rebel pillage. The
less said about this matter, by the opposition
press, the better. — PZtsburqh Gtuxttc.
A HID FOR VOTES.
The fifth resolution of the Democratic
platform, adapted at Harrisburg, on the
14th iast., is a bid for the votes of the la
boring classes. It is in the following words:
"That the movement now being made for
the amelioration of the condition of the
laboring man, bave our most cordial co-op
eration."
The utter insincerity of this resolution is
shown in the fact that every copperhead
paper in the land is in favor of free trade,
which instead of ameliorating the condition
of the laboring man would reduce his wages
to a level with the paupers of Europe.
Such i* the Consistency of copperhead pro
fessions. Their hope is to deceive the peo
ple and gain votes by fair professions. The
Copperhead party has no more sympathy
with the laboring man now than, when in
defence of slavery it advocated the princi
ple that capital should own labor. Cop
perhead principles are at enmity with the
interests of the laboring man and always
have been. They would to-day if they had
it in their power make the laborer a slave or
a pauper and they are the unblushing advo
cates of measures calculated to bring the
laboring man to this degradation. Their
professions are hollow and false and are
only designed to deceive the ignorant and
unsuspecting.
South rn Election.— Kentucky and Ala
bama held elections on Monday last. Ken
tucky elected a state Treasurer and Legia
ture and as usually went largely rebel. No
one ever expected anything else. From
Alabama we have no news yet. In the
Presidential election last year Grant had a
majority of 4280. The election is for mem
bets of Congress and the chances are in fa
vor of tho Republican candidates. Ten
nessee held an election on Thursday the sth
inst., for state officers and a Legislature.
The canvas in this State is bitter to the last
degree. The majority in favor of secession
was 55,224 in 1861. In 1867 Gov. Brown
low defeated Ethcridge for the Governor
ship by 51,936 votes, and Grant had 30,446
majority in 1868 —the vote standing 50,757
to 20,311. The last Legislature had 108
Republican majority on joint ballot, twenty
five in the Senate and eighty-three in the
House. The Congressional representation
has been six Republicans, two Democrats.
The Republicans are at variance on Stokes
and Senier for Governor. Brownlow says
and preaches that Seater must be elected,
that he only is loyal and true. But Stokes
has obtained tbc indorsement of several
members of the Cabinet. The Democrats
give aid to Senter. Stokes finds his reliance
in the colored vote and in tho aid of Radical
Republicans.
COPPERHEADS call for a reform in the
management of the financial affairs of the
State and Federal government. Under Re
publican management the state debt has
been largely reduced and the taxes upon real
estate abolished, while in the first five
months of Grant's administration $43,009.-
000 of the national debt has been paid off
and the Internal Revenue taxes reduced at
the same time. What reform do copper
heads want? Under copptrhead rule in
Pennsylvania the debt and taxes continual
ly increased for years until the debt exceed
ed $40,000,000 and every foot of land in the
Commonwealth was taxed. Under a cop
perhead administration the national treasury
was completely bankrupted in time of peace,
before the war. Which do the people like
better, Copperhead or Republican man
agement? If llicy ptcft.. of Jc.Pt
and taxes, let them vote for Copperhead
candidates. If they desire to continue pay
ing off debts both State and Federal, and
the abolition of taxes let them vote for a
continuance of Republican rule.
WHO IS PEKSHINGT
This question is answered by the Somer
set Herald and Whig. That journal says :
"Pershing is a third or fourth-rate country
lawyer, enjoying a plodding business as a
scrivener and general county counsel. lie
has never, unassisted, tried a dozen cases in
that uiany years of practice, and we doubt
rnueh if his voice has ever been heard at the
bar of the court on whose bench he aspires
to sit. His public career his been confined
to a few years' service in the lower House
of our State Legislature, where ho made a
political reputation so extensive that one
half his party journals in the State do not
even know how to spell his name."
THE copperhead platform says the soldiers
and sailors who carried the flag of our coun
try to victory must be remembered. How
can we better remember their services than
bv rewarding them with offices of honor,
profit and trust. Gov. Geary has been a
gallant soldier in two wars. llow then can
our copperhead friends refrain from voting
for him, and against the bloated bondhold
ing, stay at home, Packer. Let cops live
up to this resolution of their platform and
vote for Governor Gcai y.
THE Copperheads have a vast amount of
trouble with their man Pershing. A can
didate for supreme Judge is usually selected
because of his distinction as lawyer or judge,
but l'ershing turns out to have no distinc
tion of any kind and the party is anxiously
inquiring "who is Pershing." Now it is
hardly worth their while to inquire for the
brief space from now to October. After
that they will not care to know.
Ma. GALBRAITH of Krie has declined
the rather dubious honor of the Chairman
ship of the Copperhead State Central Com
mittee, as he saw the machine would inev
itably bo run in the ground. William
Mulchler E.q., of Easton has been appoint
ed to tun tho rotten craft until October,
when Mutchler and his whole crew will find
themselves swamped muchly.
GALBRAITH DECLINES.—The Eric Re.
pMioan learns "from Wro. A. Galbraith,
Esq., that he has positively declined the
position ' of Chairman of the State Demo
cratic Central Committee, and "has so tele
graphed' to Buckalcw. and the other
"powers that be" in that party. What's
the matter?
WHEN Geary was fighting the battles of
Lis country, Packer was coining money out
ot the necessities of that same country by
selling coal to the government at cxhorbi
tant prices. Remember the soldier.
BEN. V. ade, in his account of The China
men, says: ' 'They never repudiate a debt."
The Democratic hatred of the Celestials is
easily accounted for after that piece of infor
mation—John won't make a good Demo
crat.
"Our soldiers and sailors must be grate
fully remembered. ' — Copperhead platform.
No soldier appears on the copperhead
tieket. The way to remember the soldier is
to vote lor Geary.
BLOATED bondholders are a stench in the
nostrils of Copperheadism. As a matter of
course they won't touch Packer with his
twenty millions.
WALLACE, the Domocratic chieftain,
tbink there are no grounds for his party to
work on since the passage of the Registry
Act—coffee grounds we presume he means.
THE PUBLIC DEBT statement for August
Ist, shows a reduction of over seven millions
for the month of July, making over forty
three millions in the first five mouths of
Republican administration.
A REVOLUTION headed by Ex President
Martincx and Jerez has broken out iti Nic
aragua. So far the revolutionists have
Ecized Leon and several other towns, and
have met with no opposition.
THF. New York Uerald thinks "the fight
iu Pennsylvania lor Governor is between
money and glory. Packer has the money,
and Geary has the glorv and the inside
track.'' :
Ql'EßT.— Was the word "white" omit
ted from tho "soldier and sailor" clause iu
the Democratic platfoim for the purpose of
securing negro 6oldier votes hereafter?
Geary's Republican Claims.
Because he has been a faithful, efficient and
honest Chief Magistrate.
Because he is the nominee and repre
sentative of a party that stood by the
country in the hour of danger, and that
stands by the principles of justice and
freedom, upon which our Government is
based.
Because he has been tried and not found
wanting, neither in his devotion to the
principles of true Republicanism, nor in his
integrity in adhering to the strict line of
principle in aH his official acts.
Because he is a man whose private char
acter is unblemished, and whose habits are
such as to meet the approval of all good
citizens.
Because Pennsylvania owes it to her
honor and fair name not to permit a brave
and gallant soldier, who drew his sword lor
her safety in the hour of her deadly peril,
and who has served her faithfully in time of
peace, to be defeated by one who sympa
thised with her enemies when tbe dark
cloud of battle lowered, and the fieree con
fiiet for national existence {urged around
her.
Because a just regard for the memory ol
the martyred dead, who fell in the heroic
struggle for national existence, forbids the
State to place iu high effirii! position those
who sympathized with their enemies.
Because the triumph of the Democratic
candidates in this State would be the tri
umph of the principles of Free Trade, and
a deadly blow at the poliey of Protection to
American Industry—a policy to which the
hardy sons of tho Old Keystone have always
been devoted.
Because the triumphant re-election of
Governor Geary would rejoice the hearts of
the true friends of the natioo everywhere,
while his defeat would bring joy into tbe
camp of its eDemie?.
Messages of Congratulation.
The following congratulatory messages
between the Emperor of the French and
President Grant were sent over the French

and its earliest ally and friend.
U. S. GRANT.
The Board of Directors of the French

"Please offer to the inhabitants of Dux

thanks for their very friendly reception of
the cable, which we trust may unite the

Family Fends in the Sooth.
C'orsican vendettas alone furnish a paral
lel to the deadly feuds which exist among
eertain Southern families. The Boltons
and Dickenscs, of" Memphis, have been
quarreling for twelve years, sometimes re
sorting to the courts of law, but more fre
quently uring the pistol and bowie knife.
The Avalanche , of that city, relates what is
called a "characteristic incident" in which
the two chiefs of the families participated.
It appears that one night last may, Colonet
D'ckens was wounded by an unknown per
son who entered his residence, suddenlv ex
tinguished the light, and commenced firing
indiscriminately. Two persons were killed,
and another besides the Colonel was wound
ed. Colonel Dickens firmly believed that it
was the elder Bolton, who had planned the
assassination and consequently vowed ven
geance. The other day, an opportunity of
fered. Col. Dickens found Mr. Wade Bol
ton talking with a friend on the street, and
without the slightest warning, fired his re
volver at him. The bullet entered Bolton's
left arm at the shoulder joint, going through
and entering his side, inflicting a severe, but
not dangerous wound. Dickens was after
wards arrested and admitted to bail in the
sum of five thousand dollars. Here we
have the vendetta of the Orlandini and the
Collonna over again, and as nobody is ever
punished for crimes of this kind at the
South, such a vendetta is likely to go on, as
it used to in Corsica, until there are not ma
ny left alive on either side.
EVERY day brings forth new testimony
to the efficacy of that well known remedy
Hoofland's German Bitters. Many thous

disorders of the digestive organs, who are

their business, could soon become well,

Dyspepsia. Liver Complaint, and Debility
of the System, soon vanish before this pow

NEW YORK, August I.—The Cuban
Junta have advices that Generals Jordan
and I'iguerdo, with 10,000 armed insur
gents, attacked General La Torre, near San
tiago ue Cuba, routed his forces, and cap
tured himself. The rumor that he has since
been shot is untrue . The Spanish General,
Puello, has been defeated between Nuevitas
and Puerto Principe. His son, with a large
portion of his command, is stated to have
joined the Cohan army. A cargo of slaves
has been landed at Colorado bay for the Ha

THE Reading Times says that Mr. Packer
amassed a colossal fortune by grinding the
facer of the poor. Years ago he made
heavy contracts for boating coal to New
V ork and got a kind of monopoly of the
business. He carried his oppression of
boatman so far that they rebelled against
him, and resorted to a strike. He went to
South Easton, where the boatmen had con
gregated, to compel them to continue in his
service; "but so violent was the feeling
against him that he was seized by the men,
thrown into the Lehigh, and would have
drowned but for a timely rescue. So exas
perated were the men against Packer, that
they drove the man who had saved his life
from the ground with stones!"

NEW AND GOOD BOOKS.
Having for four years post labored to improve
and enlarge tbe IXQCIKKR and to BO #ll it with
the lateet newa that oar people would have little
or no need of any other paper, wc have found that
one of tbe chief difficulties in oar way ha* been
that of getting a sufficient number of subscribers
to pay tbe expenses necessarily incurred in mak
ing a county paper what it ought to be. Though
the IKQCIBCR ban a larger number of subscribers
than any other paper in the county, it atill has
bat little more than half what it ought to have to
justify ui in the outlay necessary to keep it up
to the standard at which we have steadily aimed.
The T.VQUIUKR will continue to be the exponent
and advocate of a thorough-going Republicanism,
and of retrenchment, economy and reform in the
administration of the affairs of county, state and
nation. It will aiso, as usual, contain a larger
amount of late news and carefully selected gener
al reading matter tban any other paper in this
Congressional District.
An important political campaign is just about
to begin, involving the election of a Governor,
Supreme Judge, State Senator, Member of the
Legislature, and a full county ticket. The Sute
and District tickets are of tbe highest importance
as there will be a new apportionment made at the
next Session of the Legislature. With such an
important campaign before us, it is highly desira
ble to put tbe Ixituißcit in the hands of every
Republican in the county. We therefore call up
on our friends to help us pat it at once into the
hands of as many of our people as possible. As
a further inducement to exertion we have conclu
ded to offer the following desirable
; PREMIUMS:
For one new subscriber and $2.00 in advance, we
will give one number of Scott's novels. 20 cent
edition.
For two new subscribers and $4.00 in advance, we
will give one number of Scott's novels, 20 cent
ed., and one uutnber of Dickcn's, 23 cent ed.
For three new subscribers and $6.00 in advance,
two Nos. of Scott and one No. of Dickens.
For four new subscribers and SB.OO in advance,
one copy of "One Hundred Selections," bound
in cloth, or four Not. Dickens.
For fire new subscribers and SIC.OO in advance,
five Not. Dickcn't works, or one copy of Ten
nyson's or Burn's poems, worth $1.25.
For six new subscribers and $12.00 in advance,
one copy of Diamond Dickens, Longfellow or
Wbitticr, worth $1.50.
For twenty new subscribers and SIO.OO in advance,
a complete edition of Dickcn's works (25 vols,
bound in paper.)
Fortwenty-five new subscribers and $50.00 in ad
vance, one large family bible, bound in best
morocco, full gilt.
For thirty new subscribers and SOO,OO in advance
one etpy of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary,
illustrated edition with 3000 engravings, and
worth $12.00.
The above premiums are offered for new ad
vance paying subscribers. Dicken's works are
made the standard for premiums, but wo will sub
stitute any book on the shelves of the hqninr
Hook State of the corresponding price whenever
desired. Parties unable to raise clubs large
enough to entitle them to a copy of the bible or
dictionary will he allowed the premium for the
number they do raise, and can have either of the
above books by paying the difference.

NEW LOIDOS, Conn., April 26, 1868.
REUEUBERED FRIF.RD—I thought it well to
wait another week before writing, to see if I con
tinued to improve, as I have been doing for some
time, under the treatment of the new medicine,
and I am happy to tell you that I am getting bet
ter—even faster than when yon were hero. I com
menced the use of DODD'S NERVINE without
anybody advising me to it. When 1 began with
it I could only walk from my bed to the chair.
My trouble has been extreme pain in the head, and
has las'ed over three years. All the medicine I
have heretofore taken has failed to give any ro
iicf. lam now able to go up and down r'tairs,
and daily improving. I consider the NERVINE
the best medicine I ever found, and shall contin
ue its use, for I am confident of entire recovery.
I have taken only three bottles, and would not be
without it on any account.
