. The 4th District.
Hon. SIDNEY B. BEARDSLEY, of Bridge-
port, has received the Republican nomina-
tionh'for Congress, in this district. There
were several ballotings, but the most perfect
good feeling prevailed throughout, and at
the end the nomination was made unani-
mous with ' an unwanted cordiality. The
statements made by the delegates, especially
those from Litchfield county, concerning the
prospects of the election, were unexpected-
ly encouraging. If these averments are
anything like reliable,Mr. Beardsley is sure
of a triumphant election. In November
last, Fairfield county gave Grant 8544 to
8164 for Seymour.. Litchfield county gave
5124 for Grant to 4990 for Seymour. Thus
netting us a Republican majority in the 4th
Congressional District of 514. Lincoln
carried the District by 749, but English car-
ried it over Jewell last year by l070—ciear-
1y showing that when our Republican
friends do their .whole duty, as they now
promise to do, the district is reliably repub-
lican. Work, work—a thorough organiza-
tion and bringing out of the party strength
is all that 18' needed to restore this Congres-
sional District to its rightful place in the
coufisels of; the nation.
Of Mr. Beardsley, it may be said that he
is the acknowledged leader Of the Bar in
. ‘illc two counties. He is in the maturity of
his manhood, and has had ample. legislative
experience to qualify him for the‘highest
usefulness in Congress. He needs no intro-
duction or commendation to the people of
Norwalk, having been a ,former resident
. here. Again we reitterate, it is only need-
fulihat our friends do their whole duty to
Grant, to Jewell and to Bear ey,to' redeem
our district from its political stain and dis-
honor before the nation. . ' ‘

’ Inauguration Prayer Meeting.
There will be a Union Prayer Meeting at
the Congregational Church on Thursday,
the 4th of March, from 12 to 1 o’clock, to
unite with christians throughout the land in
prayer for the President elect, and for his
administration. This meeting occurring at
_ the hour of the Inauguration would seem to
be peculiarly appropriate. We are glad to
know that the members of the different de-
nominations will unite in it. Would it not
be well if our places of business could be
closed for that hour, that the services might
be generally attended 7 ‘

 

Large Real Estate Operation.

We learn that the entire hostlery proper-
ty, known 'as the Norwalk Hotel, has
changed hands. The purchase includes the
Belden Tin and Stove Store, .the Bowling
Alley, Stables, &c., and the price paid is re-
ported at $33,000. The plan involves as
we learn, the removal of the wooden build-
ing: to the rear and the erection of a semi--
circular brick block covering the, entire
front, arching over the drive-way, and the
construction of a first-class Hotel over-head.

 

@Our government bonds have gone up
several per cent, within the last few days.
The Sbhenck resolution passed by the
House pledging the government to the hill
payment of every” dollar of its obligations in
gold, with the near approachof Grant’sjn-
auguration, promising as it'docsa stable ad-
ministration, has inspired new confidence
at home and abroad and the efi'ect of these
things will be even more palpable man now.

 

mThc delightful weather we have had
all through the earlier stages‘of Winter gave
place to the “roaring lion” which is soapt
to ushc; in the_mou'th of March. The snow
storm of the season visited us on Friday,
and few if any colder nights have_visited us
this Winter than that of Sunday. The Cro-
cuses and Hyacmms were peeping forth
from. the Capitol grounds .at Washington a
week ago, but Weprcsume this Was merely
complimentary to Grant, and the new in-
coming aerinistration. But now that the
imgmafion is fixed, 13nd thepoliticians are
beginning to h10w‘and- roar about, we may
.look for storms and “squalls” all around the
board, both in politics andjweather.

 

Gnow'rn'or NORWALK. We have never
known a season when so many new resi'.
denccs were contracted for erection as the
coming one.. ' The remarkably open winter,
has facilitated building opérations‘ very
greatly and on all sides cellars are to be
seen dug, or being dug, others stoned, frames

'up and edifices in the various stages of com-
pletidn. There are to-day at least one hun-
dred new houses in Norwalk, in various
stages of construction and there would be
at least two‘hundred more could our Savings
Banks supply the requisite one-half of cost.

 

 

@We predict a jam at the Geo. Wm.
Curtis lecture .chnesday evening. Those.
who would get comfortable seats will have

to come'mr .them early.

WThe Burnside Guards celebrated the
anniversary of Washington’s birthday by
holding their annual Ball at Ely’s Hall, on
Monday evening last. Although the weath-
er was unpleasant the attendance was large,
including quite a number of military gen-
tlcmqnt from New York. “The Ball Room
was lavishly decorated with flags, banners,
&c., aad made to look as attractive as pos-
sible, and the officers of the company and‘
floor committee exerted themselves toplease
their guests. Supper was furnished by
D’Artois in his new building. The Goodsell
Quadrille 'Band, of Bridgeport, furnished
good music and the dance was kept up until
“five o'clock in the morning.” '

. I?” As an orator Mr. Curtis enjoys a rep-
utationsecond to no man in America, and
we all have a right to expect that his lecture
at Lockwood’s Hall, Wednesday evening,
will be the most charming entertainment of
the lecture season. His subject is “Political
Morality,” but we understand is in no wise
partizan in character. The lecture com-
mences at 8 o’clock, thafilour evidently be-
ing the most convenient for .the majority
who attend the course lectures.

We are requested to state that the reasons
why the lectures heretofore have not com-'
menced promptly at the advertised time was
because the lecturers refused to commence
before the audience was seated, ‘

 

 

 

@Mr. C. B. D’Artois, the enterprising
and celebrated Ice Cream manufacturer, has
removed into his new three story brick
building, on, Main street, just above 'Ely’s
Hall. ,Hc is fitting up the store as a Con-
fcctionery stand and Saloon, and when fair-
ly settled will have a handsome place which
will be a credit to himself and an ornament
to the village. He has now on hand a large,
varied and choice assortment or confection-
ery, &c.

W One of the greatest annoyances to
our people in certain parts of the town, at

 

called the “dam roaring,”—the noise and
jar caused by the falling of the water over

From this cause, there is a loud and constant
roaring in the night, and the doors and win-
dows for a mile or more around are kept
constantly jarring and rattling rendering
quiet sleep almost impossible. " Cannot
something be done to stop this great public
nuisance ? Could not a wooden apron be
constructed under the dam so as to carry Oil‘
the water quietly ? If this would accomJ
plish the purpose, and the company be not
willing to go to the expenses of its 'construc-,
tion, coulii it not'be done by public subscript
tion? Certainly all property owners inter-
ested would be willing to contribute to abate
the nuisance.

 

' o
ACCIDENT.—We regret to learn that Mr.
Francis L. Aiken, an old and esteemed res-
ident of Silt-ermine District, was very seri-
ously injured on Friday last. He- was en-
gag-ed in painting his house,when the ladder
broke and precipitated him to the ground, a
distance of about 25 feet. We understand
that he lies in a very critical condition, but
hopes are entertained oi‘his recovery.
WFriday night was one of the loveliest
we have ever seen. After the. long storm
which covered thc'carth, 'trees, fences, build-
ings, &c.,’with pure white snow, the moon
came rolling up in bright efl'ulgence, light-
ing up a scene 0f sparkling, dazzling bril-
liancy. The air was cool but not severely
cold, and the night was one of a life-time for
a joyous sleigh-ride, with the moonbeams
dancing, glancing on the ever sparkling di-
amond-like, crispy snow flakes, 'all around,
below, above, everywhere. "Certainly no
artist could paint .or poet imagine such a
scene of almost heavenly magnificence.

W'The respectable porticn of the Demo
cratic leaders of New York city are final-
ly becoming alarmed at the great insecurity
of life in their city, and are now endeavor-
‘ing to put a check upon that class of crimi-
nals who so freely use the Pistol and Knife.
But they have sown the seed and are now.
reaping thewhirlwind. The ' great preva-
lencc of crime in their.city is but the natural
result of their party governlnent—a'govcrn-
ment apparently conducted by rogues for
the protection of rogues. Just look at the
facts, and see what democracy is in that city;
AREAL, the murderer of a police officer, is a
deputy-sheriff and openly in a court, where
he had been brought for some offence, threat-
ened that he would, as soon as released, kill
the policeman, nevertheless, he was imme-
diately released and on the first opportunity
he'dt‘d kill the policeman, and expected im-
munity from arrest therefor, but the higher
leaders becoming alarmed at the earnest
and popular demonstrations of the‘people
and the progress of the organization of a
vigilance committee, had him sentenced to
death. Again, the Congressional Investiga-
ting Committeq recently in session there to
investigate frauds at the late election clicit- _
ed from the present Mayor, a man well .post-
ed in the ailbirs of the ring and intimately
acquainted with all its leaders, a declaration,
under oath, that, “there was not an-honest
politician in New Yor .” There was acon-
fession for you. And now the said Commit-
tee give us the result of their investigations,
in a l'cpl'ot just made to Congress, the fol-
lowing facts :— .
First : Many thousands of aliens fraudu-
iently procured or were furnished with cer-
tificates of naturalization, illegally or fraud-
ulently issued, by means of which they were
enabled to register as voters, and voted in
violation ,of law. ‘ '

Second .' Many hundreds of certificates of
naturalization were granted in the names of
fictitious persons, to be used by native-born
and naturalized citizens and aliens in falsely
registering as voters, and to enable them to
vote many times at the election.
Third: Many hundreds of persons voted
in New York c133r from two to forty times or
more each, uu er assumed or fictitious
names fraudulently registered for the pur-
pose. ‘ _ '

Fourth Extensive frauds were commit-
ted in canvassing tickets, and names of vot-
ers were entered on the poll lists, and Dem-
ocratic tickets counted as if voters represent-
ing ltlhem voted, when no such persons voted
ata . .

Fifth: To accomplish these frauds, grog
neglect of ‘duty and disregard of law, so
great as to evince a criminal purpose, pre-
veiled in some of the Courts, while oflicers
and Democratic partisans of almost every
grade, either by official influence or other-
wise, aided, sanctioned; or knew of and fail-
ed to prevent them. ‘ The same influences
shielded the perpetrators in nearly all cases
from detection or arrest, and when arrested,
they have, through the agency of Judicial
officers and others charged with the duty of
prosecution, escaped all punishment.

Birth .' Through these agencies the'Dem-
ocralic Electors of President and Vice Pres-
ident, and the Democratic candidate for
Governor of the State of New York, were
fraudulently elected. ‘

Seventh .- And the investigations, of the
Committee show that existing State laws,
and the mode of enforcing them, are wholly
inadequate tetprevent these frauds, but that
Congress has the power to enact laws which,
if faithfully executed; will to some extent
furnish remedies hereafter. There is no law
of Congress professing to prevent or. punish
frauds in voting or conducting elections,
and the penalties relating to certificates of
naturalization are by no means adequate.

Is it any wonder that crime runs riot
through the city, with such rulers in power?

A Noble PcrionaIEfl'ort. ’

The Presbyterian church on Forty-Second
street, of which the Rev. Dr. Hastings is pas-
tor, has been burdened with a debt of $57,-
000.- This fact comin to the knowledge of
JAMES H. BENEDICT, (sq., who though resi-
dlng at Tarrytown,’ spends his winters in
the city, hé resolved on the removal of the
burden. This he accomplished by a liberal
subscription, and by his personal efforts to
obtain the balance.‘ The result was a happy
surprise to the pastor and the church, whose
appreciation of Mr. Benedict’s liberality and
s mpathy was appropriately expressed in
I sit resolutions. The incident is honorable
to him'and instructive to others. It shows
that.“some things can be done as well as
others,” and- more definitely, that a church
debt may often be removed by a. measure of
faith' that might not venture the task of re-
moving mountains.

THE Nomxrrom—We find in our ex-
changes the following complimentary no-
tices Of, the Republican nominee for Con-
gress from- this district :—

Wc congratulate the Republicans of the
Fourth District for their choice of Sidney, B.
Beardsley, as theircandidate for Con ress,
Mr. Beardsley is a man whose great abilities
and unswerving integrity eminently qualify
him for the position, which the Republicans
of thc Fourth District intend to secure for

 

 

 

elected ; all that is necessary for that desir-

sley has never sought political preferment.

That he is acandidatc now, is due entirely.
to the solicitations of those who know how

well and trullee will perform the duties of

a Connecticut representative. He is a sound

Republican, and has always been constant

in his adherence to national principles;

The convention were unanimous in the .
expression of their satisfaction at his nomi-
nation, and adjourned, manifesting an en-
thusiasm that will develop into earnest ac-‘
tion, and ultimatelyeecure Mr. Beardsley’s
election—New Haven Column

The nomination of Sidney B. Beardsley

by the Republicans of the fourth Congres-

sional district is an eminently popular one...
Mr. Beardsley is well~ known to the people
of the state Cast a lawyer of ability, and who

has done good service in the legislature.

For two years set the district has not been .
represented in ongress, nor will it be dur-
ing the next two years should Mr. Barnum
be successful. This, however, we believe, is
almost impossible. It is needless to refer to
the causes which, two years ago, gave a re-
publican district to the democl'ats. It is
enou, h to say, the do not exist this spring.
Mr. lgeardsley wil rally every Republican
voter-t his support, and, we believe, many
demo ats who do not care to see a seat in
Con ress, which its holder-is unable to fill,
purc used by the most glaring corruption.

’llore'pailroad Facilities Needcdw

Itwas the sage remark of that great Rail-
road monopolist; Cornelius Vanderbilt,‘
when doubt was expressed as to whether
a. railroad would play between New York
and New Haven,—“Thc country will not
only abundantly support this road, but a’
NEW ONE EVERY SEVEN vEAIts." ,The'
growthand development of the country all
along the line of the New Haven road, to
say nothing of New York city, has been
ten-fold grqicr than. the great Railroad
king had dared to conjecture. Look back

'a moment, and recall Bridgeport, Fairfield,

Southport, Wesport, South Norwalk, Dari-
en, Stamford, GreenwichflPortchester, and
Mount Vernon, before this road was con-
structed. Then the road was dependent
mainly ,upon its through travel for support,
new it could pay large dividends upon its
own legitimate local business. Is it needful
then, in view of the enormous growth of
the country, to argue for the necessity of
another road at this time... Would not
another similar line of communication out.
of and into New York show a similar and
even greater development within the next
fifteen years, And what right or dedency is.
therein this monster monoply, which has
enjoyed so much and done so little for the
people, now defying the peoples wishes in
the matter of another road. It is natural
that they should desire to gorge the whole
apple, though they may not be able to digest
it, and all .fair and' reasonable opposition
should be tolerated. But when thesdark
arts 0f bribery and corruption of members
of our legislature are resorted to, as are so
notoriously charged, it is high time that the
Representatives of the people of Connecti-
cut purge themselves from such foul impu-
tations. That the PEOPLE ‘are‘ nearly if not
entirely unanimous in their desird'for a new
road, and the public necessities require one,
cannot be gainsaycd, and any member op-
posing such enterprise, is’ either ignorantly
or wrongfully standing in the way of the
growth and prosperity of 'our State. . A
senator frOm New Jersey recently assured
us that it was the settled. policy of that
State, irrespective of any party 'considera-
tions, to locate railroads everywhere that
capital can be found to build .them. From
New York for sixty miles out into that
statc’the iron rails are laid like a net 'over
its surface, and in‘consequcnce little New
Jersey is one compact city and village from
Jersey City to Trenton. The fares too are
at the lowest rates, Commutations are cheap,
Excursion tickets sold to parties, families
and individuals, and in fact every induce-
ment ingenuity can devise is adopted to draw
thither population and wealth. The policy
of Connecticut, through the past‘ action of
its Legislature, has been to drive'away pop-
ulation, shut out, capital, rob every po‘dr
body compelled to traverse its only line of
rail out of and into the city. May we not

0

.hope that the end is near.

WThe Chas. Reade libel suit against the

(Grifl‘eth Gaunt) was not immoral the prose-
cution adopted the novel plan of engaging

Friday last. He was taken to the Hospital
for treatment for a broken arm, was phySi-
cally prostrate, and died of erysipelas. He
is said to have been entirely destitute at the

,time of his death, and the expenses of his
funeral were paid by subscription. He -had
raised large amountS——he claimed $10,000
yearly—for his “Homes,” and the question
is where the money went to. He claimed
to be innocent of the charges’ brought
against him, and said he could_account for

dently-a poor manager and in ' unfit person

to have the handling of much money.

CHICAGO, Feb. 18th, 1869.
The King’s dead; long live the Queen i”
The week just closed has witnessed- the de-
mise and decent burial of the old era of‘ re-
trogression. Woman’s hands and woman’s
will have tenderly shrouded and laid him
to rest, and wOman‘s skill has rolled a stone
over the door of his sepulchre and sealed
it. The new era of political and social
equality is ushered in. »W0man at the bal-
lot-box and woman in the caucus; man at
the washtub and man by the cradle, is its
battle-cry, and the attack is Simultaneous
all along the line. The week has been es-
sentially woman’s week, and naturally
9110118111116 doings of the “Woman’s Suf-
frage Convention ” have been the all ab-
sorbiug topic of conversation. How did
they appear? -What did they have on 2‘
Did they seem like other women? What
do you think it will amount to f are queries
launched at iliose who were present‘ by
those who were not. A large, respectable
and intelligent audience was in attendance
at every session, and I was surprised to find
so many elegantly dressed ladies not disin-
terested spectators, but active, influential
participantsin the proceedings of the con-
vention. Women of every age, of every
grade geociety were there, bearing upon‘
their fa cs marks of individuality seldom
seen in so large an assemblage of ladies.
The “ crew’s-feet” betokening the approach
of life’s autumnal: days, were conspicuous
on many a face; lines drawn, no doubt, by
severe conflicts with liib’s ills; furrows dug
deep by hOpes constantly deferred. There
were mild, motherly countenances; the an-
5‘1131‘, discontented and anxious visages of
the SPinsters were there, End the dreamy,
expectant faces ofyoung girls;.but upon
them all was stamped intelligence, decision
and a resolute purpose that stops at nothing
short of complete success. Another remark-
able feature of the convention was the promi-
ncnce and standing of the gentlemen in at-
tendance. The ablest and most prominent
of the clergy were upon the platform;
judges, lawyers and influential business men
'took an active part in its proceedings, and
altogether there was a refinement and re-
spectability that I did. not expect to find.
Its action was harmonious, dignified and
spiced by an intellectual tilt between Anna
Dickinson and Laird Collyer, in which the
latter came out second best. The presiding
ofliccr of the convention was Mrs. Mary A,
Livermore, a lady well known throughout
' the West in connection with sanitary reforms
during the war. She is a tall, athletic and
well—proportioned woman of forty-"five or
fifty, has a face large framed and denoting

Her eyes are keen and protruding, and the
forehead, which is the most intellectual port
of her face, broader and higher than it usu-

to the other characteristics of her face. She
is a good talker, but a better ‘worker, has
indeed a wondrous, amount 'of. executive
ability,'and presided over the convention
with a great deal of tact and dignity.

The cynosure of all eyes, of course, was
Mrs. Elizabeth oady Stanton, a beautiful
woman of sixty, with a wreath of white
curls overshadowing a massive, intellectual
forehead, eyes dark and luminous, possess-
ing almassiv'e power of attraction, a face
expressive of a -wondrous combination of
beauty and nobility of soul, which I have
no doubt accurately records her nature.
Lovable. and gentle, she looks, and lovable
and gentle she must .be, possessing all, the
charms that constitute a. true wife and
mother. She is a fluent talker and an elo-
quent speaker, every utterance Comes from
her heart and goes right to the heart of her
hearers. Seven" times a mother, she 'has
ever been a true mother, and though be!
life work for forty years has been the sme-
lioration of her sex, she has never neglected
a single home‘duty. An adored wifeVand a
revered mother, she'is .the ideal of ‘a true
American woman. . '

There were other celebrities there, some
of only local reputation, and others too well
known to need any description, Susan B.
Anthony, with her thoughtful gray eyes, hcr
downright manner and her tireless energy,
but with that terribly stifi‘ and plain black
dress, itself the very embodiment of strong-
mindedness, Robert Collyer, eloquent, dig-
nified ‘; Edward Beecher, liberal and kind-
hearted; Mrs. Phelps of St. Louis, and mag-
netic Anna Dickinson, who closed ”the con-
vention with an effort which was a grand
culmination of thought, logic and power,
and which called out an unusually large
audience. ‘_

The convention has adjourned, the exite-
ment has subsided and society moves on
apparently as before, but underneath the
surface there is a silent power, the upheav-
ings of which may at some time not far dis-
tant shake the political world to its founda-
tions. What may be the ultimate fruits of
this last week’s doings is a matter of con-
jecture only. One thing it has already ac:
complished': It hasset ’the‘ifitelligént incn
of the city to thinking. Whether this move-
ment is nefarious and unfounded in princi-
ple, and hence wrong in practice, one thing
, is certain, it is growing in force and volume.
The cloud but yesterday “ nobigger than a
man’s han ,” now overcasts a c'onsiderable
portion of the political skies. The cause is'
not prostrate, but vigorous. It has even now
broken down many barriers and overcome
various obstacles, and is rapidly assuming
the proportions of an issue that cannot be
eva}ded,but must be met and decided. The
day for sneering and ridicule is past. Soph-
istry will not avail against it. The contest
must be one of intellectual gladiatorship in
the forum of reason. Eevery argument con
mustsbe broader and more potential than
every argument pro. The opponents of the
measure must bestir themselves, or soon it
will be too late. Such vigorous thinkers
and eminent men in Europe a! John Stuart
Mill, Herbert Spencer, Victor Hugo, Gaspa-
rine Mazzini, Laboulaye, and Jules Favre,
have espoused the cause and. are all alike
pointing to Woman as the sun and center of
a. higher political system American statés—
men of prominence are beginning to feel its
influence and questioning the- right of op-
posing it. It may be astruggle which shall
bring out a higher order of thought and
profounder statesmbnship than has marked
the past century, and it may result in the
elevation and purification of society and
politic's.- -

The greatest stumbling block in the way

of woman’s sufi‘rage I conceive to be a want
of faith in the native; purity of woman to
withstand the temptations which this new
responsibility would bring to her. A fear
lest it may take from her those womanly
traits of character which make her the in-
spiration of her husband’s power and the
architect of her children’s destiny. ~We
have always regarded her as created for a
different sphere. as a creature whose whole
life is a history of the afl‘ectidns,_ whose
world is her héart and whose lot it 'is to be
wooed and-won. It may be that our" pre-
mise has con wrong, ‘ it may be that we
have not rightly interpreted history, it may
be that we shall now but little of true wo-
manhood until it has been recognized as an
element of power in government. One fact
is pregnant to all—that the society and poli-'
tics of to-day are full of rottenness and cor-
ruption, and-that some moral clement must
be infused into them, and that right speedi-
ly, or our history as a.rep}lblic will soon be
closed, and the places that now know us
shall know us no more forever. The cdn-
test may do us no harm, and it may be
fraught-with fruits'which shall redown' to
our glory as a nation and develop us into
that model republic whiCh was the embodi-.
ment of Milton’s sublimest thoughts.
' “Methinks I seein’my mind’s eye a no-
ble, puissant, nation rousing herself, like a
strong man after sleep and shaking her in-
vincible locks. Methinks I ‘see her as‘ an
eagle viewing her mighty youth and kind-
ling her endazzled eyes at the full mid-day
beam,” . Hustily, ' A. H. B.

OUR STATE SENATORS.—We hope the' va-
rious conventiOns of 0th parties, which are
aboutto meet to no inate candidates for
State Senators, will see to it that the men
nominated are worth a good price. Let us
have no more-cheap Senators. For the past
few years the N. Y. & N. H. R. B. have
found it necessary to buy up our little Sen-
ate, in order to kill a much needed parallel
road. Now this railroad is a rich monopoly
and able to pay good prices: yet the com-
mon rumor is that ten thousand dollars is
more than sufiicient to control the Senate,
which does not average five hundred dollars
apiece all arolmd, making a Connecticut
Senator cheaper than a ood' sized negro
baby before the war. ow we protest
againstthese small priced men. If it is im-
possible for us to have incorruptible law-
makers, let us at least have men who con-
sider themselves worth a fair price. We
shall oppose any man who will sell himself
for less than $20,000. In New York there
would be no difficulty. But here, where it is
only necessary to buy some dozen votes,
each one seems tobe afraid that by raising
the price he will lose the chance. lVe re-
spectfuliy suggest the establishment of a
'vote market and the arranging of a sched-
ule Of prices, which shall be not derogatory
to the character of the State.

DEAn Sin—I have been a sufferer for u ward of
twenty years, with gravel bladder, and kin 3y afi'ec-
tions, during which time I have used various medici-
nal preparations..nd being under the treatment of
thisi Irnost eminent physicians, experienced but little
re e .

Having seen your preparations extensively adver-
tised, I consulted with my family physician in regard
to using your Extract Buchn.

I did this because I had used all kinds of advertised
remedies. and had found. them worthless, and some
quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever ctting
well, and’dctermined to use no remedies hera ler un-
less I knew oi’, the ingredients. _' It wns this that
prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised
that It was composed of bnchn, cubebs, and juniper
berries, it occurred to me and my physician as an ex-
cellent combination, and with his advice. after an ex-
amination of the article, and consulting again with
the druggist. I concluded to try it. I commenced its
use about eight monlhs ago, at which time I was con-
fined to my room. From the first bottle I was aston~
ished and gratifiedmt the beneficial effect, and aft or
using it three weeks, was able to walk out. I felt
mucl‘l like Writing you a full statement of my case at
that time, but thought to improvement might onl
be temporary, and; there ore concluded to defer an
see i‘.‘ it would effect a perfect cure, knowing then it
would be If greater value to you, and more satisfacto-
ry to me.

I enable now to report that a cure is efi‘ccted after
using the remedy for live months.

as well in all respects as I ever did. .'
