VEGETINE
I Will Try Vcgetiue.
llo Did,
AND WAS CURED.
Delaware, O, Feb., 16, 1877.
Mr. II. R. Stevens:—
Dear Sir,—I wisli to give you this tes-
timony, that you may know, and let oth-
(,-s know, what Vegitine has done for me.
About two years ago a small sore came
on my leg: it soon became a large Ulcer,
so troublesome that I consulted the doctor
but I got no relief, growin 4 worse from
day to day. 1 suffered terribly ; I could
not rest day or night J I was so reduced
my friends thought I would never rccov
er’, 1 consulted a doctor at Columbus. I
followed his advice: it did no good. I
can truly say I was discouraged. At this
time I was looking over my newspaper;
I saw your advertisement of Vegetine,
the -Great Blood Purifier” for cleansing
the blood from all impurities, curing hu-
mors, ulcers, &e. I said to my family. I
will tiy some of the Vegetine. Before I
had used the first bottle I began to leel
better. I made up my inind I had got the
right, medicine at last. I could now sleep
well nights. I continued taking the Veg-
etine. ”l took thirteen bottles. My health
is good; the ulcer is gone, and lam able
to attend to my business. I paid about
four hundred dollars for medicine to the
doctors before I bought the Vegetine. I
have recommended Vegetine to otlicis
with good success. I always keep a bot-
tle ofit in the house now. It is a most
excellent medicine. Very respectfully
yours. F. AN THONl.
Mr. Anlhoni is one of the pioneers of
Delaware, £). He settled here in_ 1S3 4
lie is a wealthy gentleman ot the firm of
F. Anlhoni & Suns. Mr. Ant hop 1 is ex-
tensively known, especially among the
Germans Heis well known in Cincin-
nati. He is respected by all.
Impure Blood.—In morbid conditions
of the blood are many diseases; such as
salt-rheum, ring-worm, boils, carbuncles,
soit-s, ulcers and pimples. In t1 is condi-
tion of the blood try the Vegetine, and
cure these affections. As a bioohi purifier
it has no equal. Its effects are wonderful.

Dorchester, Mass., June 11.
Mr. H. R. Stevens
Dear Sir,—1 feel it my duty to say one
word in regard to the great benefit I have
received from fhe use of one ot the gi eat-
est wood. 1 - f ‘he world; it is vour V -g-
etine. 1 .it- keen one ot tne g_. f.
sufferers for the last eight ears till “ever
could be living. I do sincerely thank
God and your Vegetine for the relief 1
have got. rX he Rheumatism has pained
me to such an extent, that my feet broke
out in soies. For the last three years I
have not been able to walk; now I can
walk and sleep, and do my work as well
as ever 1 did, and I must say I cove :t all
to your blood purifier, Vegetine.
MARGARET WELLS.
Vegetine.—The great success of the
Vegetine as a cleanser and purifier of
the blood is shown beyond a doubt by' the
great numbers who have taken it, and re-
ceived immediate relief, with such re-
markable cures,

Henderson, Kv ., Dec., 1877-
I have used H. R. Stevens’ Vegetine,
and like it better than any medicine I
have used for purifying tlie blood. One

good than all other medicines I have
taken. THOS LYNE,

Convention Proceedings.
FROM NEW ORLEANS.
FATAL AFFRAY.
In our issue Thursday morning,
we gave the ballots for congressmen
up to the tenth ballot, When the con-
vention adjourned until morning.
The next morning, after the ad-
dresses by the candidates, balloting
was resumed, with little change.
On the twelfth ballot Ball ran up to
104; Wellborn, 130; Piner, 97;
Hare, 86. Ball kept ncVt to Well-
born for four ballots, when Tillman
Smith, of Johnson, withdrew the
name of F. E. Piner. Sixteenth
ballot—Wellborn, 144; Hare, 140 ;
Ball, 134. The eighteenth ballot
Ball got in the lead, Viz : Ball, 149;
Wellborn, 143; Hare, 137. He
fell behind Hare on the next ballot,
however, and on (he twentieth bollot
Hare got in the lead—Hare, 152 »
Wellborn, 144; Ball, 120. The
twenty-first ballot stood—Wellborn,
174; Hare 153; Ball, 91. Up to
the twenty-third ballot there was but
little change from these last figures,
and at this point the name of A. T.
Ball was withdrawn. The next bal-
lot stood—Hare, 209^; Wellborn,
30S105. Hare gradually lost ground,
the thirty-first ballot standing—
Wellborn, 33.6; Hare, 193. After
a recess of fifteen minutes, at Judge
Hare’s request Capt. Brown, of
Sherman, withdrew the name of
Silas I Lire.
Mr. Martin, of Sherman, then re-
nominated Mr. Piner, and Duke, of
Hood, renominated A. J. Ball. The
balloting was then continued, result-
ing as follows:
Thirty-second ballot—Wellborn,
19S; Piner, 130; Ball 98.
Lanham, of Parker, then with-
drew Ball, stating that his name
would not again be presented to the
convention.
Thirty-third ballot—Wellborn, 346 ;
Piner, 1S0.
, Thity-fourth ballot- Wellborn, 260 ;
Finer, 157.
The thirty-fifth ballot had not pro-
ceeded further than half a dozen
counties when it was evident that
Wellborn was certain of the two-
thirds, and Furman, of Tarrant,
arose and stated that at the request of j
Mr. Piner he withdrew that gentle-
man’s name anti moved that Olin
Wellborn be nominated by acclama-
tion. Austin, of Denton, Smith, of
Johnson, Lanham, of Parker, and
Duke, of flood, seconded the mo-
tion ; anti amid the greatest enthusi-
asm ami cheering, W ellborn was de-
clared the nominee, without a dis-
senting voice.
On motion, Austin, of Denton,
Smith, of Johnson, and Lanham, of
Parker, were appointed a committee
of of three to wait on the nominee
and escort him to the hall. He
spoke for about fifteen minutes, in a
happy vein, which was greeted with
rapturous applause.
The city council of Denison has
reduced the salary of the mayor from
fifty dollars to one dollar per month.
A mayor who can’t lay up money
on that salary had better resign.—
'Marlin Dali.
The mayor of Denison is ex-offi-
cio recorder, and the fees ot his ot-1
lice average eighty dollars a month, j
The mayor of Denison was elected 1
after the salary was fixed atone dol-
lar. The other day he gave the
casting vote in the council reducing
the clerk’s salary from forty dollars
to twenty-five dollars a month, an
indication that he favois small sala-
ries.
The following resolution was of-
fered at the Fort Worth conver t ion,
just before adjournment, by J. W.
Booth, of Wise county, which was
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That this convention
recognize the ability and fidelity ol
our present representative in con-
gress, the Hon. J. \V. Throckmor-
ton, a id does hereby endorse and
approve his course as a member
of congress from this district.
