THE GAZETTE. i —i i . Wednesday, Novembei 29,1876. The Situation. The revolutionary action of the South Carolina board of canvassers is fully given on our first page Distinguished lawyers are of the opinion that the action of this board is null and void, because the matter is before the Supreme Court of the State. We count on Hampton getting his seat. Later advices state that the court has ordered those who constituted the board of canvassers to appear and show cause why they should not be punished for contempt. It is also'stated tbat’troops have.been ordered by Grant to guard the capital at Columbia and permit none to enter that building except those who have recieved a certificate of election from the board. To such base uses has the army to been put. Showing clearly also that Grant was a party to the ac tion of the board. When that gentleman retires to privet life he will have much to unlearn. The action of this board, in our opin ion, foreshadows what will transpire in Florida and Louisiana. The Radical administration at Washington fathered the fraud, and will leave no means un tried to count Hayes in. The party can not afford to have its rascality uncovered by a Democratic administration. In Florida, the Governor having ex hibited a disposition to issue certificates of election to electors of his own choice, an order of the Supreme Court was passed enjoining him from such action, and causing the board of canvassers to canvass the returns at once. So that the progress of affairs there is slow. The returning board of Louisiana is progressing slowly with the count, and nothing definite will be heard from there for two or three weeks. Whatever the termination of these fraudulent boards, we have every con fidence that Tilden will be the next President of the United States. - • —■ ■ ♦ ♦ Will there be War? We are frequently asked if there will be war if Tilden is not permitted to take his seat, to which he was'elected by over a quarter of million majority. For the North we cannot answer, but we assert most positively there will be no war on the part of the South. Wo have had our fill of that, and its none of our business. Let all the fighting be done at the North. ———■ <23> ♦ Georgia and the “Poor Negro.” Hayes’ only regret, when ho learned Tilden was elected, was for tho “poor negro.” Georgia gives the largest Democratic majority for Tilden, and the “poor negroes” within her borders make a better showing on the tax books than in any of the so-called ‘ bull-dozed ’ Radical Southern States. Smoke that with your killikinick, Rutherford. Struck his Talent. It is stated that Col. Nathan Thomp son has a cake stand in Washington City. We can readily imagine how much more it suits the Col.’s taste to dole out stale ginger-cake by the cents’ worth than to fill the position of a states man. We hope our Col. representative at the national capital will reflect credit upon his former homo. The New York Herald closes a long editorial thus : “The Republican party is not made up of rogues and Tombs lawyers. It contains a great mass of honest, honorable, patriotic men, and these will not tolerate what would make them hang their heads with shame. They will not allow their leaders to re sort to trickery, to base advices, to doubtful means to count in their candi date. Already the Republican opinion of the proceedings in the disputed States is such that it Ims become al most impossible ’recently to count in Governor Hayes. Already the wisest Republicans say in conversation that, for the sake of their party, they hope for Mr. Tilden's return. As yet the honest Republican masses are waiting in silence, but with decreasing patience, and any futher appearance of trickery, any of the least continuation of these attempts in the disputed States to take advantage of shallow legal technicalities to resort to underhand and unworthy means, such as the recent hearing of testimony clmrgirg intimidation on which the Louisiana Returning Board has, it is said, determined, will give voice to the smothered indignation of the Republican party, who cannot stand silent and see themselves and the good name of their party sold into dis grace.” Georgia’s majority for Tilden is about 81,000. If State canvassers can throw out counties, Congress can throw out States. Mr. Stephens has gone to Washington, and expects to spend tho winter there. He is confident of the inauguration of Tilden. Tho Democratic House is not respon sible for Colorado’s admission. That is the act of the Radical Congress of 1874-5. ♦£>♦. The concentration of troops at Wash ington is for the purpose of giving “Bos v Shepherd a fair count in the bankrupt court. ♦<F* Parties frequently ask us what return ing boards are for. They are a Radical invention to count out political oppo nents. That’s all. ♦ Hon. T. M. Norwood, than whom there is no better constitutional lawyer in the South, says Mr. Tilden will be inaugu rated without doubt. ♦ ♦ Harper’s Weekly says no votes can be thrown out in counting the electoral vote. We await with patience its verdict in the South Carolina returning board’s work. Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup for the Cure of Con sumption, Coughs and Colds. The great virtue of this medicine is that it ripens the matter and throws it out of the system, purifies the blood, and thus effects a cure. Schenek's Sea Weed Tunic, for the Cure of JJytpep sia, Indigestion, Sfc. The Tonic produces a hea thy action of the stomach creating an appetite, forming chyle, and curing the most obstinate cause of indiges tion. Schenek's Mandrake Pills, for the Cure of Liver Complaint, dr. The Pills are alterative, and produce a healthy action of the liver, without the least danger, as they are free from calomel, and yet more effica cious in restoring a healthy action of the liver. These remedies are a certain cure for con sumption, as the pulmonic Syrup ripens the matter and purifies the blood. The Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, create a healthy bile, and remove all diseases of the liver, often a cause of Consumption. This Sea Weed Tonic gives tone and strength to the stomach, makes a good digestion, and enables the organs to form good blood : and tlius creates a healthy circula tion of healthy blood. The combined action of these medicines, as thus explained, will cure every case of Consumption if taken in time, and the use of the medicines persevered in. Dr. Schenck is prof ssionally at his principal office, corner Sixth and Arch Sts , Philadelphia, every Monday, where all letters tor advice must he addressed. lm wm'Hww comfziAZnt. Probably there is ro complaint that afflicts the human system, which is so little understood at the present time, as some of the varied forms of Kidney Complaints. There is no disease which causes such acute pain or more alarming in its results than when the kidneys fail to secret from the blood the uric acid, and other poisonous substances, which the blood accumulates in its circulation through Lhe system. “ If from any cause the kidneys fail to perform the functions devolving upon them, the cumula tions are taken up by the absorbents and the whole system thrown into a state of disease causing great pain and suffering, and very often immediate death. Hence the importance of keeping the kidneys and blood in a healthy con dition, through which all the impurities of the hody must pass. PAIHT BN THE BACK. There is no remedy known to the medical science which has proved itself more valuable in cases of Kidney Complaint than the Vcgetine. It acts directly upon the secretions, cleanses and purifies the blood, and restores the whole system to healthy action. The following extraordinary cure of great suf ferers, who had been given up by the best phy sicians as hopeless cases will speak for them selves, and should challenge the most profound attention of the medical faculty, as well as of those who are suffering from Kidney Complaint. THE BEST MEDICIiNE. East Mabsbf ki.d, Aug. 22, 1870. Mr. Stevens: Dear Sir—l am seventy-one y ars of age ; have suffered many years with Kidney Complaint, weakness in the back and stomach. I was friends to try your Vegetine, and I think it the best medicine for weaknessjof the Kidney I ever used. 1 have tried many remedies for this complaint, and never found so much relief as from the Vegetine. It strengthens and invigorates the whole system. Many of my acquintances have taken it, and I believe it to be good for all the complaints for which it is recommended. Yours Duly, JOSIAH H. SHERMAN. PROi\OD SCI! If IHTCI7R AEI EE. Boston, May 30, 1871, H. R. Stevens, Esq.: Dear Sir—l have been badly afflicted with Kidney Complaint for ten years ; have suffered great pain in the back, hips and side, with great difficulty in passing urine, which was often and in very small quantities-, frequently accompanied with blood and excru tiatifig pain. I have faithfully tried roost of the popular remedies recommended/or my complaint; I have been tinder the treatment of some of the most Skillful physicians in Boston, all of whom pro nounced my case incurable. This was my con dition when I was advised by a friend to try the Vegetine, and I could see the good effect from the first dose I took, and from that moment I kept on improving until I was entirely cured, taking in all, I should think, about six bottles It is indeed a valuable medicine andif I should be afflicted again in the same way, I would give a dollar a dose, if I could not get it without Respectfully, J. M. GILE. 361 Third Street, South Boston. NEARLY BLIND. _ • H. thanks to you for benefits derived from the use of Vegetine, and to benefit others, I will state: When eight or nine years old I was with Scrofula, which made its appearance in)my eyes, face and head, and; I was very nearly blind for two years. All kinds of operations were performed on my eyes, and all to no good result Finally the disease principally settled in my body, limbs and feet, and ai times in an aggra vated way. Last Summer I was from some cause weak in my spine and kidneys, and it was at times very hard to retain urine. Seeing your advertisement in the Commercial, I bought a bottle of VEGE TINE, and commenced using according to direc tions. In two or three days I obtained great relief. After using tour or live bottles I noticed it had a wonderful effect on the rough, scaly blotches on my hody and legs. I still used Vegetine and the humorous sores one after an other disappeared until they were all gone, and I attribute the cure of the two diseases to Veg etine. and nothing else. If I am ever affected with any thing of the kind again I shall try Vegetine as the only re liable remedy. Once more accept my thanks, and believe me to he, Very*respectfully. AUSTiNE PARROTT, Dec. 1, 1872. No. 35 Gano St., Cincinnati, O. Diseases of the Kidneys, Bladder, etc., are al ways unpleasant, and at times they become the most distressing and dangerous diseases that can affect t e human system. Most diseases of the Kidneys arise from impurities in the blood, causing humors which settle on these parts. Vegetine excells any known remedy in’ the whole world for cleansing and purifying the blood, thereby healthy action to all the organs of the body. Vegotine is Seld by all Druggist. BAILIFF’S SALE.
