FACTS FOR THE PEOPLE.
11. R. STEVENS, Esq.:
Dear Sir—Alay I ask the favor of you to make my case
public ?
In 1881, while on picket duty in the army, I was taken
with a fit, which lasted all night. Was taken into camp
and dosed with whisky and quinine. After this had fits
every day, and was taken to Newburnßospital, and there
treated by the attending physicians. I grew worse and
was sent borne. Remained in poor health for four years,
treating with many physicians and trying many reme
dies, Finally Scrofula made its appearance on different
parts of my body, and my head was so diseased as to be
frightful to look at, and painful beyond endurance. After
trying the most emminent physicians,
without improve
ment, a change of climate was advised.
Hai , e been to the Hot Springs in Arkansas twice, each
time giving their treatment a thorough trial. Finally
came back to Boston, discouraged, with no hope of help.
Life was a burden to one in my situation, My disease,
and the effect of so much powerful medicine, had so dam
aged my system that the action of my stomach was ap
parently destroyed, and my bead was covered with ul
cers which had in places eaten into the skull bone.
The best physicians said my blood was so hill of poison
they could do no more for me. About this time a friend
who had been an invalid told me VEGETINE has restored
him to perfect health, and through his persuasion I cone.
nienced taking VEGETINE. At this time I was having
fits almost every day. I noticed the find good effects of
VEGETINE in my degestige organs. My food sat better,
and my stomach grew stronger. I began to feel encour
aged, for I could see my health slowly and gradually im
proving. With renewed hope I continued taking the
VEGETINE, until it had completely driven disuse out of
my body. It cured the fits, gave me good, pure blood,
and restored me to perfect health, which I had not en
joyed before for ten years. Hundreds of people in the
()try of Boston can vouch for the above facts.
• C'EI3ETINE has saved my life, and you are at liberty to
make such use of this statement as pleases you best, and
I beg of you to make it known, that other sufferers may
find relief with less trouble and expense than I did.
It will afford me great pleasure to show the marks of
my disease or give any further information relative to my
case to all who desire it.
I am, air, very gratefully, JOHN PECK,
No. 50 Sawyer St., Boston, Mass.
VEGETINE IS SOLD BY ALL DRUGGISTS.

As VIEWED FROM BOTTENFIELD'S NEAR WILLIAMS
BURG, BLAIR CO., PA.
Would you like to go back?
Yes ; and I would,
As quick as a crack
If I could,
I'd scale that steep hill
There back of the mill
And almost run till
I'd reach the shop,
There I would stop.
Have you ever been there ?
Up where I mean ?
If so, you are aware .
Of the grand scene ;
And from that mountain slope
You have viewed a scope
Of country that will cope
With Yosemite
In sublimity.
Stop ! To he sure I would!
And well I know
It would do ►ne more good
Than Barnum's show;
To stand there and behold
That scene which I have told
You stands out so bold
In every feature
To lovers of nature.
If you never were there,
Then up we'll go
To the vineyard, where
From whence I'll show
You a delectable land.
Or something nearly as grand,
Upon my word : here's my hand,
You'll not regret
The trip I'll bet!
Now, mark the direction
I point my finger,
And, if your perception
Craves to linger,
Just permit it to dwell;
For the very same spell
Affected others as well ;
Whose minds enwrapt,
They stood entrapt.
Those are the Alleghenies
In the far west,—
And if you've Pennsylvania's
. 13Iood in your breast,
Gushing, free, outspoken, true,
And pure as that air so blue
That dims their crests to our view,
You'll soon exclaim ;
'l'm glad I came.'
[jau4,'7l .
Don't you feel proud of them ?
"Yes." So do I,
It seems the tops of theta
Reach to the sky.
I wish you could see the sun,
When his course is nearly run,
Standing liere as I have done,—
See how they greet him,
Rising to meet
He gilds their.lofty crests
In the morning,
By a bright ray, which rests
There adorning
Them with the livid hue,
Which makes the scene look new,—
As human painters do,
When a picture fades,
By applying aids.
But see the mountains between
Here and there,
In tiers they rise and seem,
I declare,
Like monstrous steps which rise
From the earth to the skies
And each seemingly tries
To be the highest
And look the spryest.
Turn your gaze as I speak
More towards the north,—
There, do you see yon peak
Towering forth?
And a little this way
Another? Between those play,
As you see by the spray,
The waves in the river;
Mark l See how they quiver.
Clouds of fog arising
Towards the top,
Though to me surprising
They often stop
Midway up the steep side
As if to rest ; then glide
Majestically as they ride
Changing their hue
Till lost in the blue.
About that top so bleak,
That looks so bare,
I've seen many a streak
Of lightning glare,
And while those old tree stocks,
And moss-covered rocks
Were rent by the shocks,
The awful thunder
Filled me with wonder.
Oft I thought of Sinai,
And stood in awe,
Steady gazing, until I
Imagined I saw
Au Almighty Being stand,
Holding in his pow'rful hand,
Like a monstrous flaming brand,
The fierce lightening,
My soul frightning.

MARGARET GAIRLOCH'S BEAUTY.
-g
-
BY ESTHER KENNETH,
_g_
CHAPTER I.
The herd of gay little ponies with their
merry riders came flying out of the avenue
gates, and sped down the road like a flock
of low flying birds.
Fritz Bochart, sat on bis great black
horse, on the brow of the hill, and counted
them—Tot, Fairy, Mouse, Penny and
Sparkle—Margaret Gairloch and her four
little sisters. He did not know them at
all—not even the names of the ponies;
he had only learned that they were Doc
tor Gairloch's daughters and very pretty.
Margaret came first, light, stately, pe
tite in the saddle, with the least of the
little girls at her side, a child of nine
years. . . . . .
"Look out for Penny's heels, girls," he
heard her say, clear and ringingly; "he
may get scared at the blasted trees, as he
did last summer. Keep Mouse against
her bit, Effie. Steady, now, and we'll
leap the creek."
The fairy-like clattering of the tiny
hoofs came swiftly up the stony hillside.
Aa those lovely faces grew upon • Fritz
Bochart's sight, he forgot his first impulse
to spur his horse aside from the road.--
With rapt eyes he sat moitionless as a
statue and gazed. On, on they came,
laughing, blooming, fair and beautiful in
their airy flight. They passed him. As
they went they turned their heads to
glance at him, and he ins left half blinded
by the flash of blue and gold. Little Ef
fie's azure eyes were perhaps the widest
of any.
"Why, Margaret, who was that ?" she
said.
"Well, I don't know," answered Mar
garet. "It might have been an equestrian
statute for anything that I saw to the con
trary."
"Whom could it have been, Nag?"
cried Gloria, and Rose and Mignon, whip
ping up to her side.
Now Margaret knew very well who it
was but the clear cut face held its own.
"I cannot tell you, my dear sisters."
"Wasn't be handsome ?" cried Gloria,

HUNTINGDON, PA., FRIDAY, MAY 5, 1876.
with temples like snow traced by blue
lines, and her great summer blue eyes
dancing with enthusiasm.
"He looked like a prince," pronounced
little Rosa, with sweet pea cheeks aglow.
"Such wonderful eyes !" exclaimed
Mignon, tossing her banner of gold hair
from one dainty shoulder.
The child Effie looked at Margaret.
"Did you evef see him before, Mag?"
"Yes, my dear."
"When ?"
"Yesterday morning."
"Where ?"
"Here."
"Do you know his name, Ma?.; ?" asked
Gloria.
"No. (Penny, attend to your paces,
and don't trouble yourself about those
stumps.)"
It was not a falsehood. Margaret did
not know that the young man's name was
Bochart. I;ut when he told her so, a little
later, it did not surprise her.
She sent the girls on to the top of the
hill, and went into the woods to get a
handful of mulberries. Why did she do
that ? Because, though she had her fa
ther's Scotch name, she had her mother's
French temperament, and was a coy:tette.
Fritz Bochart came riding swiftly into
the mulberry woods. Why did he do
that.? Because, though he had his fath
er's German name, he had also his heart,
and was as simple as a child, wherever
woman was concerned.
"You dropped your whip," he said.
"Thank you," coolly taking it.
She was dismounted She had done so
before he spoke.
"Let me help you get the berries, he
said. "You need not be afraid," he ad
ded. "I am Fritz Bochart. You know
my mother, I think."
"I have seen her. Yes, I have spoken
with her."
"And I have seen you ride."
"Well :"
"I love you."
Ile was looking at her, utterly rapt in
he: face. She curled her lip.
"Because have thick hair and my
nose is straight. Nevertheless, may I ask
you to put me on my horse r
The next moment his hand was smart
ing from contact with her little boot, and
Penny was galloping merily up the hill.
Ch APTIM IL
"Gloria, are you dressed ? Come down
with me."
Margaret stood at the door of her fath
er's drawing root to receive her guests,
and Gloria was not far distant. Each
guest looked from one to the other, be
wildered as to which was the most beau
tiful. But Fritz Bochart knew instantly.
Purple eyes "drew beauty's prize" from
violet. Chestnut braids had richer shades
than gulden curls. Black velvef was more
magnificent than azure silk.
"Will you give me the first waltz?" lie
asked, true to his nationality.
"If you cannot find a better partner."
In an hour he was at her side, waiting
eagerly for her attention.
"In a moment," she smiled, passing
him with a bevy of gentlemen, even though
the music had struck up. He waited pa-
tiently.
He had lost sight of her in the crowd,
when she touched his shoulder with her
fan'.
"I am ready."
They turned into the measure. It
swept them twice across the long room;
the subtle intoxication of the waltz, like
that of no other, was thrilling Bochart's
very heart, when out of his arms his part
ner was torn as by a thunderbolt. He
paused dizzily. A mass of velvet drapery
and a broken chandelier lay at his feet,
and from them the smoke and scent of fire
rose. He was bewildered, and could not
understand that Margaret Gairloch,crushed
beneath the fall of the heavy chandelier,
was fatally burned and crippled for life.
The white skin had gleamed for the last
time; the rosy bloom had fled forever;
never again would the silken lashes hide
the beautiful eyes; never more would the
supple left arm guide little Penny over
hill and dale. Margaret Gairloch's beauty
was gone forever.
He did not see her again till summer
had gone. He met her driving slowly
through the lanes one calm day in the fall.
Once or twice he had been told of her ap
pearance, heavily veiled. Now her veil
was cast aside, and she would never be
beautiful any more. There was no deny
ing it. He looked at her. trying to keep
the tears out of his eyes. She met his
gaze and smiled. He took her hand.
"I am very glad to see you."
"Are you ?" she asked ; "and all my
thick hair gone ?"
0, how sad and sweet her eyes had
grown in that long six weeks lying in her
lonely chamber !
"It was so pretty, you know," she said,
simply.
"I know very well, Margaret."
"You remember the heavy braids I
used to fasten up with roses ?"
"Yes."
"And the mass of curls pushed behind
my eats ?"
"And the little tendril ringlets about
my temples ?"
."I do."
"Are you sorry it is gone ?"
"No. Are you ?"
"No."
He stood with one foot on the edge of
the low hung carriage, and holding both
her hands in one of his upon his knee.
"See how my wrist is misshapen,"• she
said.
"Poor little wrist !" he answered.
For a moment she looked at him steadi
ly. Her lip quivered—she hid her face
for a moment.
"There," she said, looking up bravely.
"I thought I had done crying, but the
sight of you brought it all back again.
The old pride that I hugged so—l feel its
loss like a limb that had been buried."
"And yet yea would not let me love you
for your beauty. Did you lovc it ?"
"Yes and now I have my reward."
She passed her thin hand over her face.
"I knew it would fail me sometime.
Long ago, when I was a child, I had a
dream, and I always have known since that
it would fail me. I thought I *as used to
its loss, and here see my poor scarred face.
But what one has loved for twenty years
one cannot cease to regret in two months."
You are grieved, then ?"
"No I am glad it hasgone ; it must have
gone sometime. And now good-by to you.
I must be going."
She lifted the rein, but be caught at it.
"Not good-by to me, Margaret, darling.
I thought I loved you for your beauty, but
it was not so. My heart never before held
tr you the tenderness that it holds t . o-day.
Nararet, look at me. Will you not trust
me f ' Can I make you happy ?"
Deadly pale, she struggled with herself.
"Don't—don't talk to me like this," she
said. "You must not. I was just grow
ing secure in myself. Don't break down
the strength I have so toilfully built up in
many weeks by a few impulsive words.
Fritz, you pity me."
. "I love you."
"Dare I trust you ?"
'You may."
He drew down to her lips, and she was
answered for blood is thicker than water,
and love leads as high as heaven.

Our New York Letter.
NEW YORK, April 29, 1876.
/1/00fly and Sankey—The Emperor of Bra
zil- Belknap's Impeachment— The Grain
Trade—The Fashions.
MOODY AND SANKEY
have closed their meetings in Ni.w Ycrk,
and have gone away to take the rest they
have fairly earned. They have held meet
ings five times every day for ten weeks,
and have, outside of' their meetings, per
formed an itntriense amount of labor. At
each of them Mr. Moody spoke not less
than half an hour, and in the morning and
evening his sermons were much longer.—
Mr. Sankey sang more or less every time,
so much indeed, that he has well-nigh lost
his voice. It is estimated that a million
and a half' of people have heard them ; that
fifteen thousand have been converted, be
sides the general awakening that they
have done for the churches, the effect of
which will be felt for years. On the last
day they made an appeal for money to pay
off the debt of the Young Men's Christian
Association, and to such purpose that
$135,000 was raised on the spot. The
farewell meeting was very affecting, and
the service very impressive. There never
was such a crowd gathered together in
that vast building. Every seat was occu
pied, and every inch of standing room as
well, and vast as the crowd was, not a
fourth of those who came could squeeze
in. It was a vast, perspiring crowd of
people, all anxious to give the departing
evangelists a hearty and cordial God-speed.
There is no denying that Moody and
Sankey bold the hearts of the christian
people in their hands. They can get them
to do more, to work harder, and make
more sacrifices than any two men living.
Enthusiasts themselves they enthuse oth
ers, and by sheer work force their ways of
working upon those who, before they knew
them scoffed at them. In their way they
are absolutely great, and their power does
not diminish. They received during their
stay in the city over $30,000 from grateful
parents of saved sons. These thank offer
ings enable them to live and prosecute
their work. Mr. Moody goes to Florida
for a few weeks, and Sankey goes for his
rest to his home in Newcastle, Pa. They
will rest for a month, and then open a
series of meetings in Boston. The total
cost of the ten weeks' meetings footed up
to nearly $50,000. The building will be
occupied, this summer, by Gilmore's band,
for a series of monster concerts.
TILE EMPEROR OF BRAZIL.
The last sensation is the visit of the
Emperor of Brazil, Dom Pedro, He came
very quietly. fur an Emperor. and disap•
pointed the flunkies by absolutely refusing
to having any fuss made over him. When
this announcement was made there was
weeping and wailing in many circles. The
politicians wanted a chance to air them
selves at a reception ; the city officials
wanted a big dinner at the expense of the
city; Delmonico wanted to furnish the said
dinner at about three prices, dividing, with
the officials; the belles wanted a chance to
dance the grand ball that emperors are
supposed to always desire, and most every
body wanted to have something in connec
tion with him. But the Brazilian refused
to submit to anything of the kind. He
came here to see, and not be seen, and he
did it. He had splendid apartments for
himself and suite at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel, and he paid his own bills the same
as any other man would. He drove about
the city and viewed it in the most com
fortable way he could in carriages that be
paid for; he visited the shops, fortifica
tions, big stores, theatres and other places
of interest, in the most quiet manner, and
when he had got through he paid his bills
like a man, and went to Chicago. There
were thirty people in his suite, attending
upon his person, and some twenty to take
care of his wife, the empress. The ex
penses of the party at the hotel alone were
$2,800 per day, the entire expenses being
probably $5,000. It isn't a bad business
being an emperor. Dorn Pedro is a tall.
well built, handsome man—one who im
presses one as being a long way above the
average. There is character in his face.
The empress is rather a handsome woman,
who looks as if she had as much will, at
least, as her husband, and as though she
had her finger in what of government Bra
zil enjoys. The officers accompanying him
were all fine looking men, except one—the
treasurer or purse-holder, of the party.—
He looked like a purse-holder—a small,
weazen-faced, brown-skinned man—whose
business with the party no one could make
out. It was surmised that he is the con
fessor of the empress, who, as is well
known, is the most devout and bigoted
Catholic in ali South America. He look
ed the character, at all events. The em
press never made a movement without
consulting him, and whatever he said
seemed to have sufficient weight with her
to decide her action. It will be remem
bered that her daughter had a riot with
the emperor not long since. The emperor
decreed religious freedom, which the
daughter did not like, so she vowed a vow
never to wear shoes or cover her head till
the decree was revoked and the Catholic
religion be made as before, the only recog
nized religion. And she did go about the
streets barefooted, much to the scandal of
the court, but with the entire approbation
of the priesthood, and, backed by her
mother, the emperor was compelled to
succumb. The empress looks as if she
were capable of the same thing. The party
return to New York in a short time, when
the bummers and the fashionables will
make another effort to gobble him. He
has a remarkably good opinion of this
country and its people, and, as it is desi
rable that he keeps it, I most earnestly
hope that he will steadfastly refuse to be
wined and dined by the officials of this
city, or b 3 entertained by the equally ob
jectionable snobs.
BELKNAP'S IMPEACHMENT
Business called me to Washington this
week, in time to see the opening of the
Belknap trial; one of the most serious
cases ever before congress—the first time
that a cabinet officer has been convicted
for stealing. The bright Easter Monday
had drawn thousands of children to their
annual sport of egg-rolling in the capitol
grounds, which rang all day to their shouts
But within, the firmal proceedings drew
a gallery-crowd to see bow the ex-Seere
tary '•took it." The firmaiitiea, slight as
they are. were very impressive from a body
that pays so little regard. usually, to them
as the American Congress. Chief.fustiee
Waite came swiftly in, wearing his silk
gown of office, and the House of Repre
sentatives filled the floor in the Senate to
hear the proclamation made by the Ser
geant-at-Arms, and the impeachment real.
The counsel on both sides gathered, a
formidable looking array of sound learning
and character on the side of the govern
ment lawyers; on the other, were the le
gal dexterity of Matt. Carpenter. the keen
crafty face of Judge Black, ard the con
centrated regards of pale Montgomery
Blair. Mr. Carpenter met his chest. and
brought him in on his arm. Belknap was
less florid than usual, but he seated him
self with ostentatious assumption of entire
ease, threw one arm over the back of his
chair, slanted his commanding person neg
ligently in his seat, and fixed his eye an
one particular part of the gallery where
two strikingly pretty women w,..re seated.
and kept his regards there most of the
time he was in the chamber. The im
peachment summons was read, to which
the counsel filed answer that the said Wm.
Belknap was not an officer of the United
States at the date of the summons. The
government counsel asked an adjournment
to prepare their answer, and the show was
over. The great self-indulgent dragoon
who lately held the office of high cabinet
minister, stalked out of the senate cham
ber, half a dozen men shook hands with
him, a courtesy which he accepted in a
lofty impatient fashion, as if he had rather
not be troubled with such demonstration;
but not a senator was seen to shake hands
with him
THE GRAIN TRADE.
The merchants of New York arc in a
state of mind about the grain trade. St.v
tistics recently collected, shows that Bal
timore receives nearly twice the grain that
New York dies, and Philadelphia about
the same ; while Boston, which was sup
posed to be dead, is working up very closely
to both. The papers are all discussing
the matter, and begging the merchants to
take steps to bring back the trade. The
trouble isn't with the merchants, though
the loss falls en them. The fact is the
bloated railroad monoplies have done the
work. There are no facilities in New
York for handling grain, cheaply. quickly.
or safely. That by the Central has to be
lightered to the vessels, and very mach of
it is moved in trucks. The system is one
of stealing, extortion and inconvenience.
Instead of running grain into an elevator
and from thence into vessels, at a merely
nominal cost, there are tolls, charges. costs,
delays, and everything else that is vile.
till a bushel of wheat going through the
city is loaded to almost its value. Conse
quently shippers prefer other markets,
and they have found them. Baltimore is
taking the lion's share and the pi-averit7
of that city and the decline of New York
attests the wisdom of the one and the stu
pidity of the other. Vanderbilt had been
compelled to take steps to bold the trade
of his road Ile is building a big eleva
tor at sixtieth street, and the Erie will do
likewise, so there is reason to hope that
some portion of the lost trade may be
brought back. The Western :rain grower
will feel the good effect of this at once
New York is the natural market ler the
West, and it is a pity to see its facilties
thrown away.
TILE FASHIONS.
Easter is two weeks later this spring
than last, which was favorable to people
who found it convenient to put off shop
ping as long as possible. The styles at
the openings display a judicious mixture
of last. year's notions which the milliners
cannot get out of their heads in any one
season, with very much that is new in the
way of fabric and trimming. Pearl gray
and pile drab chip bonnets of the small
capote shape arc in the best taste for ladies,
while all sorts of turbans and pretty fancy
hats are shown for the country and to be
worn by young girls. Wings and feathers
are interdicted by fashion. though the
second rate milliners 611 hats with them
as they were worn last fall. The trouble
is that these dealers arc so slow in getting
the modes, that their hats always look
behind-hand, and the styles of last winter
dove tail on these of June. Heather,
with its delicate pinky white and soft
foilage, is the flower admired for trimming.
Plumy oats and all soft tressy, drooping
flowers and grass also fall in with the
style of trimming hats, and with these
heavy crape-hke ribbons and plain fine
grained silks are used more than anything
else. Fine Panama bonnets in French
shapes instead of the odd, wide brimmed
hats in which this braid was only found
last year, makes a desirable variety to
gether with the satin and open brimmed
hats which arc but a trellis round the face
to be filled with silk and flowers .
PIETRO.
Bad Effects of Beer Drinking.
The worst results from accidents in the
London hospitals are said to be dr:quietly.
Though they are apparently models of
health and strength, yet if one of them
receives a serious injury it is nearly always
necessary to amputate in order to give him
the most distant chance of life. The dray
men have the unlimited privilege of the
brewery eel:2r. Sir Astly Caper was once
called to see a drayman, who was a power
ful, fresh colored, healthy 19oking man.
who had suffered an injury in his finger
from a small splinter of a stare. The
wound, though trifling, suppurated. lie
opened the small abscess with his lancet.
Ile found on retiring he had left his lan
cet. Returning for it. he found the man'
in a dying condition. The man died in a
short thee. Dr. Gordon says, "The mo
ment beer drinkers are attacked with acute
diseases, they are not able to bear deple
tion, and die." Dr. Edwards says of beer
drinkers, "their diseases are always of a
dangerous character, and in case of acci
dent, they can never undergo the woes
trifling operation. Th,l almost invariably
die under it." Dr Buchan says, "Malt
liquors render the blood sits and unfit for
circulation ; hence proceed obstructions in
flammation of the lungs. There are few
great beer drinkers who are not phthysir.yal,
brought on by the glutinous and indigest
ible nature of ale and porter. * * These in
flame the blood and tear the tender vessels
of the lungs to pieces." Dr. Maxon says,
"Intoxicating drinks, whether taken in the
form of fermented or distilled liquors, are
a very frequent predisposing cause of dia
sease." The hospitals of New York show
an equally unfavorable record of the in
temperate, and private practitioners eve
rywhere have the same experience.— So ii
