AVheeea?, einca the last regular meet

causing in Ihe minds of some of oar
neighboring oomuiamties nadac alarm,
inducing them to onset severe quarantine
against ns, without waiting to see if tbe

justify snob measure'; aad
WHEBxas, Without rt-deoling in tho
least upon the motives or acts of ozr
friends or questioning their r gbts to es
tablish quarantine if so mir-ded, ihe Board
congratulates our own citizens, as well as
those of the States »ud places contiguous
to us, upon the favorable aspect of the
weather relating to the fever, and the un
likelihood of Us putting on any serious
or dangerous form, such as an epidemic;
therefore, be it
Saoltei. By the Board of Health that
at present we eee no reason for the least
alarm on account of the casual case or
few cases sporadically exhibited, and ex
press the hope that our citizens will con
tinue their seif possession and cotli leace
and that soon the places and cities that
have, through great prudence, put up
their quarantine bars against us, will Lei
it in their power to take them down and
allow the business of the country to pro-
cetd, when it can do so without any real
danger to the public health
The resolution is accompanied by the
official statement of the cases to date :

Da H R Stave^s—
Dear 8ir—1 feel v*ry grateful for what your
valuable medicine, Vegetme, has done in my
family, I wish to exp* ess my thanks by inform
ing you of the wonderful cure of m/*on; also to
let you know that Yegetine is the best medicine
I ever saw lor Chills. Shake#, Fever and Ague.
My aon was sick wi;h measles la 1S7S, which leit
him with H<p-j»int disease. My ton suffered a
great deal of pain all or the rime; the pain was
to great he did nothing but cry. The noctors
did not help him a part.cie, he could not lift his
fooi from the floor, he could not move without
crutches. I read your advertisement in the
•*!/'■ nisville Courier-Journal,” that Yegetine was
a great Blood Purifier an*l Blood Food. I tried
one bottle, which was a great benefit. He kept
on with the meaicine, gradually gaining. He
has taken eighteen bottles in all, and he is com
pletely restored to health, walks without crut
ches or cane. He is t * enty years of aee. I havo
a younger son, fifteen y*ars of age, who is sub*
ject to Ch : lls. Whenever he feels one coming
on, hecom^s in, takes a dose of Yegetine and
that is the last of the GhiU. Yegetine leaves no
bad effect upon the t *:em like mo.n of the
medicines reco amended for Chills. I cheerfully
recommend Vegetme for such comolainta. I
think it is the g latest medicine in the world.
Respectfully, MBS J W LLOYD.
Veobtiitb.—When the bl«*)d becomes lifeless
anti stagnant, either from change of weatho- or
of climate, want of exerask irregular diet, or
fiomany other cause, tbe Yegetine will renew
the bloo‘1, carry off tho putrid humors, cleanse
lho8tomsch, regulate the bowels, and impart a
tone of vigor to the whole body.
