FOR DROPSY. ' Sei e 3 I Never Shall ' 7 ‘ Forget the Fiist Dose. . PROVIDENCE, Mg. 11. R. SrevENS :— . i Dear Sir,—l have been a great sofferer from dropsy. I was confined to m{ houge more than a year, Six months @ the time I was entirely heg)less. 1 was obliged to have two help me in and out of bed. I was swollen 19 inches larger ,than my natural size around my waist. I suﬂ&éred all a man coiild and live. I tried all remedies for dropsy. - I had three different doctors. My iriends all expected I woald die; many nights I was expeoted to die before morning. At last Vegetine was sent me bly a friend. I never shall forget the tirst dore. Iconld realize its good eflects from daytoday; I was getting better. After I had taken gome 5 or 6 bottles I could sleep quite well mghts. T began to'gain I.ow quite fast, After some 10 bottles, I could walk from one part of mg room o the other. Mv appetite wae gocd ; the dropsy had at this time disappeared. I kept taking the Vegetine until I regained my usual health. 1 heard of a great many cures by using Vegetine afier I got out and was able to attend to my work. lam a carpenter and builder. T will also say it has cured an aunt of my wife’s of nenralgia, who had suffered for more.than 20 years. #ne says she has not had any neuralgia for eight months. I have given it to one of my children for canker humor. I have no doubt in my mind it will cure any humor; it is, a great cleanger of the blood; it is safe to give a child. I will recommend it to the world. My father 18 80 years old, he says there ir nothing like it to give strength and life to an aged person. I cannot be too thankful for the useof it. I am, : Very gratefully yours, Joun I, NorTacE. All digcases of the blood —lf Vegetine will relieve pain; cleanse, purify, and cure such diseases, restoring the patient to perfeet health after trvin g different physiciang, many remedies and suffering for years, ig it not conclngive proof, if you are a eufferer you can be cured? Why is this medicine performing such great cures? It works in the glood. in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the great blooa purifier. The. great source of discase originates in the blood; and no medicine that does not act directly upon it to purify and renovate, hagany just claim dpon pablic attention, .

VEGETINE

' XIOWE MY HFALTH TO YOUR VALUABLE

VEGETINE.

: Newrort, Kv., Apr, 29, 1877, MRr. H. R. STEVENS;— : o

Dear Sir,—Having suffered from a breaking out of Cankerous Sores for more than five years, caused by an accident of a fractured bone, which fracture ran into a runnirg sore, and having used every thing I could think of and nothing helped me, until I had taken six bottles of your valugbie medicine which Mr. Miller the apothecary recommended very highly. The sixth bottle cured me, and all I can say, is that I owe my health to your valuable Vegetine. T "Your most obe -ien& servant, Sl ALBERT VON ROEDER. *lt.is unnecegsary/for me to enumerate the dis-eases-for which the Vegetine ghould be ured. I know of no disease which will not admit of its use, with good results. Almostinnumerable comsRluiu ts are caused by poisonous secreilone in the lood, which can be entirely expelled from the systéem by the use of the Vegetine. When the blood i# ?erfectcdly cleansed, the disease repidly rigld_s: all pains cease; healthy action 18 prompty reetored, and the patient cured.”

The very large number of invalid Pml)lc who daily visit Buftilo, from every quarter of the United States and Canada, that they nmf' consult Dr. R.V. PIERCE, and the wh]elg celebrated Facully or Specialists in Medicine and urr'ery associated with him, rendered it necessary that the founder of this institution should FTOVIGO a place on a:graml and commodious scale or their entertainment and comfort. ADVANTAGES OFFERED.—The Invalids' lotel is more complete in its zlmmnmm-um than any similar institution in the world, The building is located in one of the most healthful and desirable portions of the Clﬁ' of Buffalo, and commmnands a tine view of Lake Erie, Niagara River, and the surrounding country, being situated in the midst of an extensive system of beautiful parks. The Hotel is furnished with a E;ltent safet¥ passenger; elevator, to ¢onvey patients and from the different floors; is provided with all kinds of approved baths, and has also connected with it a well-appointed gymnasium and bowling alley to afford proper means of exercise. : OHRONIO DISEASES of all forms, whether requirs lnﬁ medical, surtglcal, or mechanical, treatineént, come within the province of our several specialties. DISEASES OF WOMEN.—Especially are the facilfs ties of this infirmary of a su‘)crlor order as regards the remedial means and appliances for the .cure ot all those chrox}ic diseases })eculh\r to females. The gmployment, in moderation, of tonic, chemical, electro-thermdl, and other uﬂ»roved baths, 18 _in many cases an invaluable auxiliary to the remedial means to which we résort in such cases. Dry friction to the surface, general shampooing, Swedish moves ments, and llgfn. calisthenic exercises, to enliven and exﬁuallze the circulation of the blood in the system relieve confestcd lpnrt.s, improve digestion, nml 2 streu{;t\len the muscles, xl)roduce important beneficial - results in all cases to which these means are np{)llcuble. No experimenting is resorted to in the treat= ment.” The most approved medicines are carefull cmshoyed, and the ymuolmls regulation of the dlet! to st the condition of the ‘{mtlent, the thorotﬁh yens tilation of the sleeping apartment, the cheering ine fluence of music, social intercourse, innocent games .for amusement, and all those agencics which tend to arouse the:mind of the patient from despondency, and thus promote recn\'eri', are not neglected. NERVOUS DlSEARES,.—Paralysis, Epilepsy (Fits); Chorea (St. Vitus’s Dance), and other nervous affec= tions, receive the attention of an erpat in this S{)e‘eialty, by which the greatest skill is attained and the most imppy results securellf‘ LUNG DIREASES.—This ¢dlivision of the practice in the luvalids’ Ilotel is very ably managed by ‘a gentleman of mature i"dmmm’ and skiMl, Bruncmnk: Throat, and Lung Diseases are very. lur(it;cly treateds in this department, and with results which have been - highly gratitying to both p&lysichm and patients.

YE SUFFERING EDITORS.

The condition of the average editor is fully illustrated in the following *‘pome,” written by some ‘‘parboiled” eduoxj who declines to make hig identity known: : s Fm parboiled, I’'m iried. I’m roasted, -I vow I'm half cooked ; at least - M{ gkin feels as if it were toasted, ’m a subject for a cannibal feast. e - Iwalk through this heat-stricken land, : . In the thinnest of texture arrayed, And I walk with a fan in each hand, While it’s ninety and eight in the shade. To grumble they say isa gin, : L But thig weather brings nothing but greans: I would like to jump out of my skin, And sit quietly down in my bones; Or, I wieh I might be a whale, Of a harpoon I'd not be afraid; : For the north pole I'd quickly set sail 4nd leave ninety and eighc in the shade. How long will this hot weather last? Can’t you give a congoling idea? - When it goes will it go very fast, . | Or will it remain all the year? : In hot weather I can’t be a hero. Ta Of bld Sol I'm truly afraid; : I'd much rather know him at zero % Than'at ninepy and eight in the shade. 4 J - , ¥ i AN ANGEL’S VISIT. 7 AR ' : ‘ : BY B. D. J. 4 | “No work! O, Mr. Steele, don’t say | m!". - g isky RWE CH r:'»‘»«;uu 1 “Indeed, it is true, Mrs. Alton, I'm sorry enough to have to say so, for my own sake as well as yours. ' This is the Qull season, you know. You will find it so in all business. February and March are months hard on all.” “What shall I do?” . There was a look of despair in the poor woman’s eyes as she raised them pleadingly to Mr. Steele’s face. Just the same cry, just the same pleading look had come from at least a- half-dozen other poor women already that morning, and their employer had, of course, by that time, grown used to it. Still, he felt rather more for Mrs. Alton. Ile had known her husband well—in fact, they had been good friends, as Mr. Steele termed their intimate relations. It was the knowledge of this that carried the widow to Mr. Steele’s establishment to seek employment. Three years before Ellen Alton had been a happy wife and proud mother; had lived in a pretty comfortable home, and no anxious care dwelt in her heart. . :

Her husband was only clerk, but his income was suflicient for all their needs. Ellen had heard him say only the day before his last on earth, that he had “a mite saved for arainy day.” . Without a moment’s warning, when just giving Ellen the. usual good-bye kiss for the day’s absence, he tottered and fell. It was the last good-bye to wife, children, earth! “lleart disease,” was the decision of the medical men.

Afler -recovering somewhat from the terrible shock, Ellen remembered her husband’s words.- Ah, how soon the rainy day had come! . In vain she sought among his papers to find some intelligence concerning the mite saved. No one knew anything about it. So the pretty little house was given up, ahd two rooms taken with a friend. Then one after another article of furniture was disposed of until .only those most necessary remained. : And so with the work received {from My. Steele, she had managed to live and keep her three little ones from suffering. ; But now, surely, starvation stood ready to enter her door. ~ She had managed to keep up a good heart, and, for her children’s sake; a smiling face. “J’ve so little to give them like other children have. So 1 must always let them liave smiles,” she said. “What shall I do?” again she repeated. b ;

- Mr Steelelooked somewhat disturbed—in fact, a little perplexed. ' After a moment, he said: :

“If you could only manage to get over the next six or eight weeks, business will be brisk again then. Let me see. Suppose you go up to my house and see Mrs. Steele. I think, possibly, you might get from her some sewing. I know there is a great deal of material I have paid for in the last tew weeks. Say I sent you. Believe me, Mrs. Alton, I am sorely embarrassed by this state of things, and the extravagant demands of my family.”

Ellen Alton found Mrs. Steele and her daughter surrounded, as Mr. Steele had said, with elegant silks and costly laces. , ; . With a perfectly placid. face, the fashionable woman listened to the petition for work: ! “I've three little ones depending on me alone for bread. I will work for any price, just enough to keep them from starving. Iknow I cansuit you. If you will only give me something to do, I’ll be so thankful.” v “I have already given out all we intend having done from home. ~We really can-not afford to have any more. I wonder that Mr. Steele should send you, he grumbles so much about his expenses and the dull business. What do you say, my dear?” turning to a very handsome: girl standing beside her. : s il

“I say. mamma, please decide about the trimmings for that pearl-moire.— The young man is waiting.” @ “Well, you mean between satin i lace.” z

“No, indeed, I am perfectly decided about that. Satin is too common and cheap. Anybody can trim with satin. 1 am only a little puzzled to decide between these two piéces of lace. “This piece at a pound -I thought perfectly beautiful until he sent up this other at six shillings more. I know if I take the cheaper I shall neger feel satisfied.” sl :

“But Flora, dear, no one but the most critical examiner would notice the difference. And just think, it will make your dress cost six pounds more,” said a sweet, low voice from a remote part ot the room. i

Ellen Alton raised her eyes, to meet those of a sweet, gentle-looking girl’s, full of sympathy, resting on her. %0, Susie, please hush! 'lf mamma listened to you, I'd have nothing better than anybody else, and that will not suit me. It is a comfortable state of feeling to know that you have the best of the kind, whateverit is.© And, mumma, I must have this piece.” “Well, well, dear! I do not wish you to be dissatisfied. ‘Give your orders. But, deur me! How shall I manage this great extra’ eéxpense? We ‘will liave to make those other dresses, the traveling 'suit and morng dresses at home, Susie. - We can —don’t you think so?” ;

A ;louhl of deeper commisseration was in ¥he sweet girl’s eyes as sheturned them from Ellen to answer: “We can, and Iwmust, if you say so, aunt.” o *Yes, we must, and. that will just about make up the extra expense.” - Then turning again to poor Ellen Alton, Mrs. Stecle said ; AL ““I’'m very sorry, but you sdeé low I have to economige.” e -The miserable woman could not re-

strain the bitter smile that was on her pale lips as she passed out of the luxurious room. 3 <

“Economize! I call it taking bread cout of starving children’s mouths,” ‘she sobbed. Aai

~ From one establishmentito another, o;) and on, to receive ever the same re: ply. ‘ “Nothing at all, not ev‘(en enough work for our regular hands.” A Home again—out on the door-step, trying to cast forth the clouds. trying to smile‘for the little ones sake. * How could she? ' Nothing for supi;ex- that night! nothing to put in each ittle extended hand, not alcake even!

“0, heaven! pity the little ones! Father of the fatherless, give me a smile for them!” she cried. ' Slowly she drew off her gloves, and ‘trying to calm her heart to meet them, ‘the cold hands were pressed together in an agonized, supplicating manner. In an instant after on the sorrowful face flashed a light of hope.

- “Thank heaven!” she cried. % And drawing from the wasted fing‘ors the wedding ring, the mother step¢ped quickly, lightly to the door. ~ “Why should I for a mo‘Eent regret ity if it will buy food for his .little ones? (Could it do more or better? Do I need a reminder of him? Have I not his other self—his babies—to care for? No, no, I will not grieve. My heart is rejoicing! Thank thee, O Father, that thou hast given me smiles to greet my darlings with!” Slx shillings only ; and it cost two sovereigns! DBut that was many years ago. : fehae g“You will keep it awhile/?” she asked, the pale lips quivering a little. A woman stood by, young and fair. A babe’s hand nestled close to her heart. | :

Nearer she came, and gently touched the man’s arm. e

"He turned; the business look vanished, and a softer expression was in his eves as they f,ollowed‘zris' wife’s to her!finger. Just such aring encircled ibe | o ' e “Yes, yes; I'll keep it. And here, I will advance a little mo{e-—-;mother four shillings.” Pidiae A beautiful, approving smile from his wife, a grateful look :tt‘]’:’l “Heaven bless you!” from the poor woman, amply repaid him. P : “We,” he said, because he felt it was his wife’s doing, *we will fnever‘sell it. Come any time, or send. And, if I'm not here, my wife will haveit for you.” “An orange for Willie I must get. e begged me to bling him one. Ie did not look well. I hope he is not going to be ill. Awm apple’ apiece for the others, and bread and milk enough for all, thank Heaven! O, I had almost despaired an hour ago!” With smiles bright enough, thenshe entered. L e e

A shout of glad welcome came from All and May. But where was Willie’s merry voice? ’ . « “Willie's sick— Willie’s had a chill,” they say. . | Eagerly the little hot fingers clutched the orange. Poor little eight-yeary old Willie—mother’s little man-——grew so very sick as the night came on, that, after the others had been given their supper and put to sleep; the anxious mother sat beside him all the Tong hours until morning. All the little restoratives she had been accustomed to give him failed|to relieve or soothe. ITe must have a vhysician.— The friend with whom Xllen lived said o

~ “If you wish, I will go for our doctor. eis so kind, and always brings his medicines.” 1 :

Ellen gladly agreed. And the kind doctor soon came, and tol{d them Willie had pneumonia. Although there ‘were no medicines to pay for, at the end of the second day, every half penny of Ellen’s money vyangmw. y ‘Willie must have nourishment, but how-? |- .

Almost as poor as herself, was Ellen’s friend—widowed witli children and out of work. DBut the little home was her’s, and so both were sure of shelter. Closely Ellen concealed her want from her. . i “I cannot have bread taken from those little ones’ mouths to put into mine,” she said. ; Her faith was put to the severest trial. Supperless, the children had sobbed themselves tosleep. She knew they would not really suffer that night. But, O, where would food for thé 1101row come from? She had a few spoonfuls of cream and sago left for Willie, and that was all. | Not a crust of bread had’ passed even her lips since morning. e

“What can L do? O, why does not Heaven take us from this hard world ? Why leave us to suffer? There is no hope for me. No light to guide me through this terrible darkness! 'O, Father, why hast Thou fiorsaken us ?”

She heard a yoice from the crib.— Baby May was talking in her sleep. Ellen drew near and bent her ear to cateh the words: :

“Dive us our daily bread, and for: dive—" s

A great sob from Ellen then aroused the little one. Ilalf awake she lisped: - Mamma, May fordot to say *our Father—” ; G

Beside tha bed the mother knelt, weeping and praying. [ow quickly the babe’s lisping voice had recalled her almost failing strength, - “Yes, yes, I will trust [Him. Forgive, forgive, Heavenly Father,” shs cried. “['hou wilt not try me beyond my stxength.” - ..o o

Scarce had she risen from her knees when a knock at the door made her quickly light the lamp. She knew that it must either be the doector or some stranger. - . When she opened the door, & sweet voice said :: §

. “Please dcn’t think I'vestaken too much hberty. But I've felu to sorry about aunt not giving you work, I came to bring you alittle Lhave, And —and--indeed 1 fear youmay be hurt. but folks do take pay in advance, I know. Please, won’'t you? You know I might spend the money, and zl&en not hive it just when you wish6. |

The little hand that ‘was extended with the money was caught and pressed convulsively to Ellen’s bosom. “Heaven has sent you with food for my starving children!” she eried.

Aud sobbing, she sank to the tloor, her head buried in Susiv’s lap. When & little caliner the ‘good girl drew from her the story of her sorrows and trials, . .

“Cheer up, dear Mrs. Alton. 1 promise you better times. I will find you} work. I know I c¢an. 1 will make every young gentleman I know have some shirts made. ‘Where there is a will there is a way,” you know. And you ‘must not worry about the doctor’s bitl. Bless his dear, good heart. He will never trouble you about it. I dou’t belleve hé was ever known to take u fee from a poor widow. I know him well. Now if. you will

please give me a sheet of paper, I will write a note for you to send in the morning. I've a good friend not far from here, the owner of a large wood and coal yard, you -can get what you want from him, and pay when you choose. Or better still, wait till that little man Willis gets old enough and able to do so ?” 2 : ;

Susie’s face was radiant. Never in her life before had she felt so truly happy. - : e Gently raised Ellen, placed her in the chair which she had just left, say.ing‘:- L o i

“Now, sit still. I wanfpet,o hunt for the paper myself. You tell me where I may look.” = : S “Indeed, I'm afraid 1 have none. O, yes, in the large Bible. I remember of dear William’s placing our marriage certificate belween:a sheet of paper and putting it in there the day he gave me the Bible. You:will find it in the top drawer.” ' Susie hastened to get out the Bible, and in a moment afterward said: = “Yes, here is a nicesheet. I hardly like te take it -though. It seems sacred, I will only cut off a little slip.”

Susie took out the certificate, Another paper--a small folded noté was in it. Her quick” #ves risted on a well-known name; Iler uncle’s it was.

The paper was caught up, and in an instant after Susie knelt beside Ellen: :

%0, I've found it—the ‘mite’ you were telling me that was lost. See! see! here is my uncle’s note for it.— One hundred pounds. Your husband must have let it to him. Nowi—new your troubles are over. DBut”—the bright face clouded, tears filled her eyes—*o, how could uncle have done s 0- Why did he not pay 'you long ago?”’ e i “Don’t grieve, dear lady, about your uncle. He, too, may have had, his trials. And, for your sake I cannot feel angry towards him. | Through him I found you.” i % “Yes, he has trials. You saw some of them. Their'fearful extravagance has caused his straying from the'path of honor. ' Think of him as kindly as you can, and get some friend to go with this note to-morrow. And now I must say good-bye. I shall come often and not forget my promise.”

“Heaven bless her!” Ellen said, as the door closed after Susie. “Yes, angels dwell on earth as well as in heaven, 1 know now.” ; : - The next day a friend of William Alton called on Mr. Steele andipresented the note. ‘Without a word of explanation he paid one-half of the amount, giving his note for the balance in sixty days.. But a few days after he went to Ellen and said:

“I can scarce expect you to believe me, Mrs. Alton, when I say I intended to pay you some day. 1 hoped to be relieved from my present embarrassment in a year or so. Eighteen months ago the marriage of one daughter brought bills the payment of which I had not recovered from, when the same has come again. -My Intention 'was right.” Pow : : “Yes, I believe you, Mr. Steele. But, 0, the children of your friend came very near starvation. They were crying tor bread when Heaven sent them the mite their father had sav&d, and I had well nigh lost my trust. Ileaven forgive me and you, Mr. Steele. The strongest of us have our weak moments, and may stray from the right path., DBut we’ll all come back to the better way if we put our trust in Him and do' the best we can. :

Train Dispatching, =~ | . (IndisvapolisNews) ... - - | In the movement of trains much depends on the train dispatcher, who fills a most responsible and laborions position. The: latter-day train dispatcher sits at head-quarters, and, with the aid of a curious chart, is enabled to-see ‘at a glance the exact whereabouts of every train on the road at any minute of the day. He hasthe entire line before him in a miniature. Dots and pegs of different rsize and shape indicate the different trains in motion at the same time, and from the chart and an elaborate time-card the train dispatcher is enabled to direct operations hy telegraph with as much intelligence and absolufe knowledge as he could possibly have were he übiquitous, and able to give -oral commands in- & hundred different places at the same time. The train dispatcher is supposed to know and" does know the size of each train, passenger and freight, on’ his division, the speed and power of each engine, the grade of every mile of the road, and where timie can be made np’to the best advantage when trains are delayed. lle usually works with the, Superintendent or the manager of the' road, though frequently he is put in charge of his particular depar_tment;;; and held responsible for the proper management of the duties assigned to him, being given a great latitude and left wholly unhampered, - . . The train dispatcher Keeps a record of the time each train starts from: the| end of the division, and from that moment until it arrives at its destination: it is constantly under his eye and guidance, like chessmen in the hands of a skillful player. So long as trains move on time he is not called upon to exercise his ingenuity much. It is when a train is ditched or meets other unavoidable -accidents .that. the dispatcher shows up to advantage. , Here he finds a field for the exercise' of his full powers. . In such emergencies the regular time-card is of no earthly account, and he is forced to. improvise one for the oceasion. Ileis called -upon to decide which jtrains shall have the right of way, where and how they shall meet, where lie on the Side-t,mck!and a thousand and one matters that arise out of emergency. On his presence of mind and accuracy of knowledge/depend the lives ot“hum dreds of train-men and -passengers, and -tho‘usandf upon thousands of dollars’ worth of property.

One has a part of the road to runover where the grades arenot heavy, while another has large hills to climb. All these things have to be taken into consideration, plans formed and executed at once, and these trains started and Kkept going without delay and without accident. -+ - sl

Shall Not Be Robbed. . (Terre Haute Express:) |

The Indianapolis Journal takes exception to a paragraph in theé Hxpress in which we spoke of “the Abe Lin< coln greenbuck,. the game dollar, the fighting dollar that saved the country,” and speaks of this coupling of the name of Lincoln with the greenback as “an insult to his' memory.” We think differently. The time will come when Lincoin will be honored as greatly in coupling "his name with the greenhack as_with the emancipation of slavery. y’ﬁie greenback will become in time the type and symbol of a new emancipation. Wedo notelaim that Lincoln was a greenback man in the modern meaning.of the term. In assisting to establish the greenback he built, doubtless, wiser than he knew. But the dollar of the war was *“the Lincoln rag,” the Abe Lincoln greenback, and the Journal shall not rob the great emancipator -of his eredit.

NOQ 14.

- The|Next U. S. Senate. . .° (Salem Democrat.) - “How will the United states Senate ‘stand after| the 4th of next March ?” This is an|important question with politicians whose interest centers in national affairs. The Senate is now composed of 76 members, and by the ‘terms of the constitution two-thirds “hold over. The terms of 24 Senators expire on the coming 4th of March, and the remaining 52 hold over. The Senate now stands 39 Republicans and 35 Democrats, not counting David Davis either way. Of the 52 Senators who hold over 28 are Democrats and 23 Republicans, and Senator Davis, ‘lndependent. The Democrats have a -majority of five of the old members. Of the retiring Senators 8 are Democrats. Six of these will be retained. certain. Of the 16 retiring Republi--cans 6 will certainly be succeeded by Democrats. ‘Six will just as surely be succeeded by Republicans. Four are considered doubtful. This estimate gives 40 Democrats to 31 Republicans, with 6 in doubt and Senator Davis put down as Independent. Four of these iplaces are now filled by Democrats and - two by Republicans. Suppose the pro.portion in the doubtful cases remains the same the next Senate will stand 43 Democrats, 33 Republicans, and 1 Independent. ‘ i
