Address INDIAN APOLLS SJENTINZL COMPANY, Indlanpolu, Ind, Gikibai Gbast, in the iIidWinter Century," aajs the troops on both aides in the battle of Shiloh ''were Americans, and united they need not fear any foreign foe." It is suggested that the Democratic party can Lot expect to succeed by borrowing Republican doctrines. Protection for the sake of protection is a Republican doctrine, and we fully agree with an esteemed exchange that the sooner the Democratic party sits down on Sam Randall for trying to borrow it, the better will be the party's chances for permanent success. Hoy. D. W. Yoorukks, Senator and Senator tlect, met a cordial reception on yesterday at the hands of his personal friends, and, later, from the Legislature. His visit to the House of Representatives in the afternoon was the occasion for brief addresses by him, ex Senator McDonald and Hon. TW. ZL English. Mr. Yoorhees' re marks were, in the true sense, patriotic full as acceptable to Republicans as Damocrata. Hia tribute to and expression of fondness for Indiana was roundly applauded. Mr. McDonald well-nigh fell into roll hardly expected of him that of humorist. Mr. English, while wording exalted appreciation of Senator Yoorhees, was kind enough to compliment, also, the Ability of Senator Harrison. In short there was a general air of Democratic generosity on the face of the occasion to bring a degree of radiance to the countenances of Hoa. John C. New acd other Republicans present. Thzri is something almost pitifully peev- ; ish in the manner in which the "grand eld ! party" still regards its defeat ana the rightful consequences thereof. The sorest spot of all, however, is the coming displacement of Its lesion of well-fatted and Insolvent officeholders. Referring to the department clerks t Washington, a local organ of the g. o. p, whiningly deplore! the fact that "these clerks, after giving years of honest service and having, during that time, sacrificed their chances of getting along in the business world, are now to be turned out." Of course they are to ba turned out; and they will be replaced by more worthy and patriotic citizens as soon as may be. There are many intelligent Americans still left who would think it an excellent way of "getting on in the business world," to be given the incumbency of a Government clerkship for a score of years or so. Let the present corrupt drones of the departments be sent forth for a season to earn souoe honest bread. TS3 TWO BE0ORD3. Oovernor Gray aas made a record In favor of tbe fixation of the law. It will return to plague bltn before the expiration of bis term of oflice. Journal. Governor Porter's record was not simply favvr o the violation of the law," but one that absolutely violated it. It has returned to playac Aim at the expiration ot his terra of office. The law made it obligatory upon him to investigate the condition of the ! State Treasury. He was in official position to pursue this plain provision of the law, and absolutely never made an attempt in tbe direction indicated. At the end of his term of office, with his party broken and demoralized, when necessary to garner party capital for future campaigns, he suggests to the Legislature that the State Treasury needs ! looking into, and thu lift the load from him, and force others, if passible, to perform a duty which the law made obligatory upon him. This course at once arouses suspicion oa ft seaätiYfl point. Ha is promptly econded by the Republican organs, and to distract attention and to mix matters more thcroüßhy soma flimsy nonsensical Insinn tiona are made on oar new Governor at tb rei j outset of his administration. THE LONDON EOBBOB. The worst blow that has ever been stracL the movement for the independence of Ireland was the explosion of Saturday in the British Capital. Perhaps Russian or German Nihilists may have been the dastards who i et the infernal machines in place. It may be that no Hibernian waaparticepa in the crime. Eat as long as O'Donovan Kossa and his class of wretchea have followers, or even tolerance among the Irish, that people will suffer responsibility for anch outrages. The best service that con Id be rendered the cause of Irish liberty would be in the stretching ot the necks of all O'Donovan Rossas by Irian Lands. The people of Ireland really have, in a large degree, the sympathies of the civilized world, and in an open and honorable "war for emancipation from English oppression their armies wonld be largely swelled and provided for by men and money of other Nations. Eat civilization will never Approve the uncivilized, the worse than barbarian, reports to .dynamite, the nse of which endangers the Ii nocent Including women and children m re than the landlords and law-makers. It is to be hoped that Irish leaders and the I iah people, en masse, will stamp with thei 1 condemnation upon this latest and most ctxecrable outrage. EKOBMOU3 PROFITS. A very bad memory serves a good part to some people. It requires a Yery shrewd lawyer to meet tjee requirements of witnesses with treacherous memories. After a very tad memory, for utility under certain circumstances, comes the convenient memory one that can reoteraber or not, as the Biegendes of the occasion demand. Bach an one seems to be In the possession of Mr. C. P. Huntington. The New York Herald gives as an example of, Mr. Huntington's forgetfulnees that when on the witness stand last Wednesday, he could not state within $20,--ijOO.OOO what were his profits in tbe Central Pacific He adniiited finally that they were lees than 5,000. qMX The Herald declares that his share of the profits was in the neigh- j orhodof 11 ,000,000. it reasons thus. There were four JJr. Huntington un tbe syndicate, of which was one. This syndicate lut Lato ihe rbad fl.Utt.ooo. Xhey hive

drawn already "$105,000,000 in stocks, bonds, dividends and similar forms, and from the other enterprises to which the Central Pacific served as a stepping stone this syndicate hopes to bag another ?1 Go ,000,000 profits." If Mr. Huntington was entitled to onefourth of the profits, he drew more than 111,000,000. Euch gigantic operations were nerer possible until the Republican party began to shape the legislation of the country. We merely refer to this to soothe the feelings of certain reputable members of the Republican party who may perchance continue to mourn over the November defeat of the "grand old party."

A DANGER SIGNAL. The Committee on Public Land3 reports a bill prohibiting aliens from acquiring large tracts ot land in this country, as they have recently been doing by syndicates or couiMrations of noblemen and large capitalists, to the exclusion of small proprietors, through whom, if at all, permanent improvement must come, and to the up-building of j a landlord interest powerful enough ; to hold in subjection large bodies of tenantry in derogation ot the spirit of our Government and institutions. Tbe committee say they have ascertained with reasonable certainty that these syndicates, chiefly of English noblemen, hare already acquired in the aggregate 100,000,000 acres or enough to make nearly fire States as large as Indiana, with a fair prospect ot doubling this amount by the sales of land on railroad foreclosures. In short, rich aliens, who have no Interest here and wat none, except as a Chinaman has, to mike tbe most possible out of the country aDd take it away to spend it; that is, to make a system of "absenteeism" here, to which that bo long a curse to Ireland would be a tri fie, already own the area of five good large States, and will In a few years own five more. No Government can safely endure the exist ence of such a monopoly, even if made of its own citizens; of foreigners and aliens, whose only Interest is plunder, it wonld be, or soon prove, an intolerable burden to the people. The limitation ot such enormous grants ought to come soon, and be made as peremptory as possible. We want no landlordism here. TWO PHASES OF DOUBT. Colonel Iogersoll has been airing some of his brilliant blasphemies in New York, and has provoked a discussion with Rev. Heber Newton, the Episcopal clergyman, whose latitudinarian views on matters of faith got him into trouble with the authorities of his church recently. Colonel Ingersoll contended that man and not God should rule the world, inasmuch as when God did govern the world He governed it very badly. He thought as a certain king of Castile did once when contemplating the Ptolemean theory of the solar system, that if he had been called upon at the creation he could have Improved upon the work of the Creator considerably, and that in point of fact that he could have made a better world than was made. The Rev. Heber Newton, describing the statue of doubling Thomas, standing with a measuring rule In his hand in the midst of the other apostles, in the cathedral of Copenhagen, ready to submit everything to an absolute test, said that whll s Thomas was sceptic, a true rationalist, he was honest in his scepticism, and worthy of his place among the apostles. The history of progress shows that progress is always along the line of doubt, but it must .be honest doubt, and with a eincare desire to know the truth and that only. Alluding to Ingersoll, he said there is a cheap and nasty doubt which goes through the land, denouncing tbe ministry on Sunday nights, at fifty cents admission and $1 for reserved seats, announcing with a great flourish of every brazan trumpet the novel discoveries in Biblical criticism known to scholars a generation ago, but overthrowing only the results of studies in church history carried on in the intervals ot professional duties not the most honorable, and seeming to say: It the Aimi'hty ha-,1 called ma la at the creation I would have given some valuable points. In respect to what he considered a true tad boneat douM Mr, Xe ton said: "Thero is a certain doabt, softly perplexed la oar epoch of transition, sincerely trying to build up a better faith tä rough its every qaentloulnjc of what seems no longer believable. 1 do not bellevathat healthy minds caa go on believing: what oar fathers belie red. Ii you have a doubt that tbe Bible la true, then honestly follow your consciousness that It is your duty to do right, and as surely as the sun shines from the heavens it will lead you to a failh In God. In other words, there la no doubt which touches the essentials of religious faith to-day which can not be suOiadntlv answered if men will only think long enough, think hard enough, read wide and deep enough. What you want is not less light, but more light Posh, your doubts out of the shadow into the light. Then yen will flud In what you thought a devil an angel to lead you higher. This la the real hope of the church. Oat ot It Is to come the Christianity of the future." To this Colonel Ingersoll, with characteristic effrontery and impudence, simply replied that if Mr. Newton had honest doubts he ought to quit preaching, and that he guessed God could get along without the Episcopalians anyway. THE OLD LIBERTY BELL; There is no other Inanimate object so heroized by American sentiment as the old "cracked bell of liberty" now In transitu from Philadelphia to New Orleans. The dispatches have described the incident of its being lowered from its elevated home in Independence Hall on Friday, how it was placed on a truck drawn by six horses and decorated with garlands, Mowers and flags, with 500 policemen escorting it to the depot. Houses along the line of the procession were also decorated. A car, specially constructed for its transportation, was In waiting upon a, platform within which it was securely bolted. Around the platform Is a secure brass railing with posts ornamented with glided bells. Over the frame is an inscription: "187a Proclaimed Liberty." The car with Its guard of three officers was attached to a special train bearing a committee from the Common Council of Philadelphia to the World's Exposition. When the train reached PitUbnrg at nif-ht, despite the late honr and the intensely cold weather, there were between 2,000 and 3,000 people in waiting at the depot to see the old bell. So, all along the route, will the people gather at the stations to get a look at it; and at the Exposition, of all the attractions there collected, it will be the central one. It is impossible to describe the veneration, the sentiment scarcely short of idolatry, with which the typical American stands In the presence of this relic of the Revolution, The

writer has stood upon the landing, just underneath the bell, by the hour, with uncovered head, and 'noted with interest how almost every visitor to the spot removes his hat at his eyes rest upon the molded inscription from Leviticus xxr, 10: "Proclaim liberty throughout all tbe land, unto all the Inhabitants thereof." Eemerabering ai we gaze at it that by its peals was first announced the Declaration of Independence which made our country great, glorious and free, the insensate metal takes on attributes of patriotism and heroism and an equal place in our reverence for the high priests of that grand reformation. Still looking upon it, fancy paints for us a picture of the half hundred delegates from the thirteen colonies, constituting the "Second Continental Congress," gathered in the little ground floor room of the "State House," on the 2d of July, 1876, when Richard Henry Lee, of Virginia, rises and reads hia resolution, "That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, or ought to be, totally dissolved." The resolution is adopted, and we can fancy the tongue of the old bell hanging aloft, moves as if te sound a "well done." But it refrains until a name shall be given the prospective government and Its platform of principles stated. For two days it Is in waiting, until the 4th, when Thomas Jefferson, rising, reads the greatest State paper the world has kown, which names the colonies the "United States of America," and words their Declaration of Independence, The tongue of the bell quivers as the vote is being taken. Bet when the vote Is concluded and the unanimous adoption of the declaration Is announced, that tongue is unfettered, and with peal on peal it "proclaims liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof." Fancy, continuing its ruminations, suggests appropriateness In the old bell being voiceless by the crack in Its bide. Remembering that the voices of its fellow-patriots, Washington, Patrick Henry, Lee, Adams, Sherman, Joy, Randolph, and all the heroes who spoke and fought for the liberty It proclaimed have long been hushed, there is fitness in the tongue of the old bell also being silent. But it is a treasure worthy of the Nation's pride and love, is the old cracked liberty bell. The sight of it recalls the grandest event ot all political history, when the patriots of Massachusetts and Virginia, Georgia and Pennsylvania when Northern and Southern colonists Joined hearts and hands in emancipating our country from royal oppression, and the establishment of the freest and proudest Government the sun has ever shone upoB, As the South and tke North were united then they are united again, and we are sure that nowhere mora than on the Southern border, where it goes for temporary residence, would the people look with more pride and affection upon the old liberty bell.

SmTOR TOOK HEES, His Reception by tha LegislatureSpeeches by the Senator, Senator McDonald, and Eon. W. H. English. At half-past three o'clock Senator Yoorhees, ez Benator McDonald, Hon. William H. English and Secretary of 8 täte Myers appeared upon the floor of the House, entering by the cloak-room, and their coming was the Bignal for a general clapping of hands, nearly all the members rising to their feet. A resolution, which had evidently been prepare! before the coming of the distinguished Sanator. was sent up and nad by the Clerk, ask log for a committee to invite Senator Yoorhees to address the bodv at 4 o'clock. As be was already present, the Speaker said the appointment of the committee wool 1 be dispensed with. The Senators at this time entered the hall, and Senator Voorhees was introduced, and said: OF TUB GESEB.IT. ASSF.VüLT OF IffDIAS A, AND LAME? AST GENTLEMEN It Was With no purpose to Interrupt your proceeding except lor a lew momenta that I have called this afternoon to pay lay respects to you. 1 did so etrnestly desire to lock npoatulB Legislature that I could not withstand the temptation to cross the moantains and sea yon together as I saw most of yoa sin?); d iit ice the recent canvass of the State. 1 aain to rescw ny acquaintance bo pleasantly made at that time, and to embrace the opportunity to express, as ar ai in the feeble power of words to express, the gratitude of my heart for vour generous confidence in yonr recent action. I have been now for a number of years one of the representatives of the State of Indiana la tbe highest representative position she has to give. I can claim but one merit, and that, I believe, the people hav granted, and that Is that I hare aimed, uudor aU circumstances, earnestly, and without evasion or reservation, to staid by the interests ot the people of Indiana s I understood them. And in savin? this 1 canpeak without partisanship or lines of thought, for I can appeal to the searcher of our hearts that no man, woman or child ol any party or of any complexion ol politics or religion, or even of race and color, has ever applied to me for anything within my power to giant In the way of assistance that I have failed to respond to the best of my ability. To my political friends on this occasion I tender my sincere, hoart.celt thanks; to my political opponents I have none but the beet wishes and the utmort kindness to express. The public man who expects to be successful must at least be faithful to the people. I think we are prone to underrate the perception or intelligence of the people; and how quickly they understand whether a man is In earnest upon their aide or not. W hen this Government was founded the great qnestion prevailing in the minds of thousands of men was whether a government of the people could stand; whether a government could be based upon the intelligence and the virtue of the people unrestrained by kingly authority or despotic power. It was aquesJc-n yet unsolved in the history of men. but It has been solved in favor of the theories of onr great Revolutionary ancestors. We have reached a period when it behooves us to look closely to the issues which will be?tn appearing: issues which involve the power and rlzht to the power on the one hand, and the pretentious of corporata powers, monopolists, upon the other. In contests lue these I shall stand as I have heretofore, to the best of my knowledge anl ability, on the side of the labortog maw ot the country. In the fields of labor all the prosperity ot this hattoa is involved. The laboring Interests of the country are to be cared for, and when I sneak of these I speak with not the sligtcst design of arraying, even in thought, the interests of labor and wealth ; because in the business interests of this country lies the prosperity of the laboring man. The business Interests ot this country lu the bradcrt sense embracing finance, revenue, and all kindred Interests ara connected intimately with the prosperity of the laboring man ; and the wite man, the faithful man la public position. Is truest to his trust when he does not mike hostile issues between different classes of industry aud wealth, but tries to harmonize them and conse quently increase the prosperity of the country. I wi Jl not proceed Into any extended remarks that I might make upon this aud kindred thoughts. One word, however, for onr great and glorious rit&te. You have in keeping here the interests of tbe greatest State, according to area and population, that lies under the American nag. Indiana is not one of the large States in territory, not one of tbe large States in acreage or In square miles, but she ranks alongside of those who are the tartest in the American I'ulon. In point of diversified interests, agricultural products, manufacture resources and product, as well as educational advantages, Indiana Is second to no State, In the last thirty years she has ma1e more progress in educating her people, spent more money per (apna, according to tne number ol men, women snd children in her territory, than any other Htate in the Union or any other Commonwealth on the globe. I am not a states-right man in the Senne of tose who once believed that a Htate has aright to pitakusreiaUoiUTrlth. m union, iu,Tbu

such a thought in my breast: but, at the same time, I have the keenest possible 6 täte pride in the btate that I represent in the fcenate ef the United Etatea, and I appreciate the continual compliment which this great State has bestowed upon me. Yon are the law-makers: yoa legislate for future wealth aud future prosperity and happiness, and you have wanted me to work with yoa In the seat of the General Government in doing my duty there, I can only say that I renew the vows that I took upon myself, when something more than seven ytarsago I took the oath of office to serve these people faithfully and well. Here In your pretence now I renew these tows, that if life and health are granted me by the beneficent I'rovldence for the next six ytars, I shall serve the Interests of this 6Ute faithfully and well to the best of my ability. At the conclusion of Senator Yoorhees remarks loud calls were made for McDonald, and he responded as fellows: Gestt-smf.m of the Legislatcek or Indiana I came here to join with you in paying our respects to our distinguished Senator-elect, and not to undertake to address you. But, gentlemen, when Senator Yoorhees referred, to Indlaaa I knew it would be a cold day when Daniel W. Yoorhees rould not speak a gooa word for Indiana, and it would be a cold day that I would not be willing to listen to him, not for a brief time, but tor any length of time, in discussing that subject. I am glad, fellow-citizens, that my fortunes have been cast in this State, where I hare lived now for over hfty-nve years, and hope to live tbe balance of my days, (joe word I may say in addition to wbat Senator Yoorhees has so well stated, that while Cndlana is one of the most prosperous States in the Union, she has within her limits the largest proportion of hometeads snd family homes of any State In the t'nlou. We do not have large domains held by single persons; but farms or homes of honest industry, of independent American industry, are found all over our State. When we have a political contest, it is no boy's play. Our political adrersirias are worthy of our steel, and sometimes they are able to vanquish us and take away the prize, but when the battle is over we are friends together ana citizens of the State of Indiana Let me make one suggestion to you, that, perhaps, has not come into your minds with reference to tne Ute political contest that has secured for tar distinguished friend the feat In the L nited 6tatei Senate, and tbatU that Indiana cast more votes in the late election in proportion to its voting population than any State in the Union, f Applause. I I am speaking by the book, for according to the sU'titlcs, well authenticated, of the entire posiMe vote in Indiana of every man who is qualified undtr the constitution and laws ot oar State to vote, we voted within 7 per cent, of that whole voting population. While no other Sbite cane anywhere near to us, Ohio was next; she lacked but 12 per cent Wen Virginia followed her, and many Ftates did not cast but half their votes. The returns show that while we were busy our adversaries were busy also, and every bush in the Sttte of Indiaua was shaken for the vote that might be behind it. My friends, for our party to have triumphed under such circumstances 1b certainly a glorious victory, and I hope our Republican adversaries will never have any cause to complain. I think we will take good care of them. They are our fellow-cltizsns: they are not alien enemies that by some strange choice settled among us. We can't freeze ourselves without freezing them, Sow, my friends, I have spoken longer than I intended to do, so I thank you kindly. Eon. William II. English was then called for. He said it was not his wish to make a speech. That he had attended only for the purpose of hearing our big-hearted and bigbrained Senator, Daniel W. Yoorhees. He said that in a'tributiug these characteristics to his friend Yoorhees, he did not wish to be understood as speaking disparagingly of our other Senator, as he considered Senator Harrison a gentleman ot ability and thought that Indiana, as a whole, could afford to be proud of the ability of her representatiues in the United States Senate.

CT.AKKSON AND ST. JOUX. rha Prohibition Chairman Gives the Former a Few Nuts to Crack. Chicago Newa.1 Boston, Mass., Jan. 2a To the Eil tor: Clarkson, superintendent of the bribery department of the Republican National Committee, having charged St, John with fraud, the evidence was demanded. He called his witness. The witness vindicated St. John. CJarkson now impeaches his own witness, and wants St. John to sue Clarkson for political libel in the KDUb!Icin State of Iowa. He has evidently taken Blaine's opinion that a judgment can not be recovered where party politics are Involved, and so, instead of owning that he was played as a sucker by Legate, and that he lied ab ant St, John, tries the game of blu& By this he admits that he has no evidence to convict St. John, and wants St. John to help convict himself. With yonr permission, I want to ask this head of the bribery department a few questions. la Legate the only witness you can produce against SU John? Does Legate tell the truth when he says I was Clarkson's ajnt? Legate being your witness, are you not either to take his testimony or stand branded as a man who introduced a liar to prove his case? Legate having vindicated St. 8)hn, are you not bound to take the testimony of your own witness, and as an honest man apologize? Have you or your friends a letter or telegram direct from St. John? Have yen a letter or telegram that pirporta to be signed by him? When was this attempt to break do wn the Prohibition party first discussed in your committee? How much money was set aside for the purpose of bribing the Prohibition leaders? what Prohibition leader did you first attempt to reach? "Will you publish your entire oorreapondWith different Prohibitionists? Will you give the public a detailed statement of the money spent by your committee? Does Mr. McOulhgh tell the truth when he eavs you agreed to pay St. John ? 3,000? Do you regtrd it an honorable thine to attempt to bribe a candidate to betray his followers? Would honorable men listen to the propositions of a traitor to betray honest men and women? Why did you consort with Legate? Did you intend to buy St. John if you could get him cheap enough? Is not a man who will listen to and help arrange a plot to bribe as vile and mean as a man who accepts a bribe? Did you not know that you state a falsehood when you said SU John left Ohio to keep his contract with you? Do you not know that you were being played as a sucker by Legate? Is not a man who will enter into a plot to bribe and then betray the confidential communications of his agent, as you did Legate's, a dishonorable man? If placed on the National Committee in 1So8, will you attempt to buy the prohibition candidate? Will you not admit that it was the asinine ttapldity of yourself and your candidate that defeated him? Have you any letters or telegrams connecting any leading Prohibitionist other than those who wrote letters in favor of Blaine with any money from either Democratic or Republican Committee? Will you at once publish all evidence you have in this whole matter, with a detailed B-atement of the amount paid the "New York Temperance Assembly, and those who wrote letters for Blaine? Mr. Clarkson should answex frankly and in detail each ot these questions. Us has made charges and now utterly fails to prove them. He must now apologize or be branded as a liar. If he will make a full confession in regard to the bribery work of the last campaign, and frankly and fully state just wnat ne intends to do in the future, he will confer a favor on the Prohibitionists he attempted to wroDg. Respectfully, Johx B. Finch, Chairman National Prohibition Commit tee. Can He Had If Wanted. "Have ton anr malana here?" asked a lady who was looking at a rural boar place for her family. "Well, said the i lady, "we hain't got none Jist now; haven't asked for it; bnt we'll get it for lady who was looking at a rural iaaafolks for your family it you want it." Most folks get ma laria without wantieg it. To get rid ot its noxious effects use Brown's Iron Bitters Mrs. S. R. MacDonald, New Haren, Conn., says: "I suöered from malaria for nearly six years. Brown's Iron Bitters cared ma completely."

A THRILLING EXPERIENCE!

Bamax kable Statemaat of Personal Danger and Providential Escape. The following story which is attracting wide attention from the press is so remarkable that we can not excuse ourselves If we do not lay It before onr readers, even though its length would ordinarily preclude its admission to our limited space. To the Editor Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat: SiB-On the first day of June, 183L, I lay at my residence In this city surrounded by my friends and waiting for death. Heaven only knows the agony I then endured, for words can never describe it. And yet, if a few years previous any one had told me that I was to be brought so low, and by so terrible a disease, I should have scoffed at the idea. I had always, been uncommonly strong and healthy, and weighed over 200 pounds, and hardly knew, in my own experience, what pain or sickness were. Yery many people who will read this statement realize at times that they are unusually tired and can not account for it They feel dull pains in various parts of the body and do not understand it Or they are exceedingly hungry one day and entirely without appetite the next This was just the way I felt when the relentless malady, which had fastened itself upon me first began. Still I thought nothing of it; that probably I had taken a cold that would soon pass away. Shortly after this I noticed a heavy, and at times neuialgic, pain in one side of my head, bnt as it would come one day and be gone the next I paid little attention to it Then my stomach wonld get out of order and my food often failed to digest causing at times great inconvenience. Yet even as a physician, 1 did cot think that these things meant anything serious. I fancied I was eufferine from malaria and doctored myself accordingly. But I got no better. 1 next noticed a pecaliar color and odor about the Hulda I was passing also that there were large quantities one day and very little the next, and that a presiatent froth and scum appeared upon the surface, and a sediment settled. And yet I did not realize my danger, for, indeed, seeing these symptoms continually, I finally became accustomed to them, and my suspicion was wholly disarmed by the fact that I had no pain in the digestive organs or in their vicinity. Why I should have been so blind I can not understand. I consulted the best medical skill in the land. I visited all the famed mineral springs in America and traveled from Maine to California. Still I grew worse. No two phvsicians agreed as to my malady. One said I was troubled with spinal irritation ; another, dyspepsia; another, heart disease; another, general debility; another, congestion of the base of tbe brain ; and so on through a long list of common diseases, the symptoms of many of which I really had. In this way several years passed, during which time I was steadily growing worse. My condition had really become pitiable. The tlight symptoms I at first experience! were developed into terrible and constant disorders. My weight had been reduced from 207 to 130 pounds. My life was a burden to myself and friends. I could retain no food on my 6tomach, and lived wholly by injections. 1 was a living mass of pain. My pulse was uncontrollable. In my agony I frequently fell to the floor and clutched the carpet, and prayed for death. Morphine bad little or no effect in deadening the pain. For six consecutive days and nights I had the death-premonitory hiccoughs constantly. My water was filled with tube-casn and albumen. I was struggling with Brieht's Disease of the Kidneys in its last stages! While suffering thus I received a call from my pastor, Eev. Dr. Foote, at that time reo tar of St Paul's Episcopal Church, of this city. I felt that it was our last interview, but in the course of conversation Dr. Foote detailed to me the many remarkable cures of cases like my own which had come under his observation, by means of a remedy, which he urged me to try. As a practicing physician and a graduate of the schools, I derided the idea of any medicine outside the regular channels being in the least bsneScial. So solicitous, however, was Dr. Foote, that I finally promised I would waive my prejudice. I began its use on the first day of June, 1S31, and took it according to directions. At first it sickened me; but this 1 thought was a good sign for one in my debilitated condition. I continued to take it; the sickening sensation departed and I was finally able to retain food upon my stomach. In a few days I noticed a decided change for the better, as also did my wife and friends. My hiccoughs ceased and I experienced less pain than formerly. I was so rejoiced at ths imroved condition that upon what I had beieved but a few days before was my dying bed, I rowed, in the presence of my family and friends, should 1 recover I wonld both publicly and privately make known this remedy for the good of humanity, wherever and whenever I had an opportunity, and this letter is in fulfillment ot that vow. My improvement was constant from that time. and in less than three months I had g&inea twenty-six pounds in flesh, became entirely free from pain and I bel'.eye I owe my life and present condition wholly to Warner's Safe Cure, the remedy which I used, ßince my recovery I have thoroughly relnTestlgeted the subject of tidaey difficulties and Brfght's d:sease, and the truths de veloped are astonndiDg. i therefore state, deliberately, and as a physician, that I believe more than one half the deaths which occur in America are caused by Brlght's dkem of the kidneys. This may sound like a rash statement but I am prepared to fully verify it Brlght's disease has no distinctive symptoms of its own, (indeed, it often devolops without any pain whatever In the kidneys or their vicinity,) bnt has the symptoms of nearly every other common complaint Hundreds of people die daily, whose burials are authorized by a physician's certificate as occurring from "Heart Disease," Apoplexy," "Paralysis," "Soinal Complaint," "Rheumatism," "Pneumonia," and other common complaints, when in reality it is from Bright's disease of the kidneys. Few physicians and fewer people realize tbe extent of this disease or its dangerous and insidious nature. It steals Into the system like a thief, manifests its j reeence Lf at all by the commonest symptoms, and fastens itself upon the constitution before the victim is aware of it It is neatly as hereditary as consumption, quite as common and fully as fatal. Entire i a rallies, inheriting it from their ancestors, have died, yet none of the number knew or realized the mysterious power which was removing them. Instead of common symptoms it often shows none whatever, but brings death cuddenly from convulsions, apoplexy or heart disease. As one who has suffered and knows by bitter experience what he says, I implore every one who reads these word3 not to neglect the slightest symptoms of kidney dirnculty. Certain agony and probable death will be the sure result of such neglect, and no one can afford to hazard the chancei. I am a a are that such an unqualified statement as this, coming from me, known as I am throughout the entire land as a practitioner and lecturer, will arouse the surprise and possible animosity of the medical profession and astonish all with whom I am acquainted, but I make the foregoing statements based noon facts which I am prepared to prodnce, and truths which I can substantiate to the letter. The welfare of those who may possibly be sufferers such as I was, is an ample inducement for me to take the step I have, and if I can successfully warn others from the dangerous path in which I once walked, I am willing to endure all professional and personal consequence, J.
