It did not follow from the charges themselves that the Minted Emma, apostles of sweetness and light and hater of ail unrighteous­ ness, was guilty, although the action of the grand Jury In finding Indict* flseots Is la some aorta presumption against her; neither does it follow from tbe quashing of the proceedings that tbe sister is necessarily Innocent. And neither does it follow, as some luve supposed, that tbe girted revival* 1st is out of the woods, On the con­ trary, She is still under bail to answer before another grand jury. Tbe failure of the attorney* to draw up the indlct- snents properly necessitates their re hashing tbe whole business and going mm It all agaiu.

He has been a great sufferer from Scrof­ ula, and the inclosed letter will tell you what a marreloui effect Ayer's Sarsaparilla has had In his ease. I think his blood most hare contained the hmnor for at least tea fears; but it did not show, except in the foria of a scrofulous sore on the wrist, until about five years ago. From a few spots which ap­ peared at that time, it gradually spread so as to cover his entire body. I assure you he was terribly afflicted, and an object of pity, whoa be began using your medicine. Now, there ar* few men of his age who enjoy as good health as he has. 1 could easily name fifty persons who would testify to the facts in his case. Yours truly, W. M. Fmixin." ROM THE FATHER S pleasure and a duty for me to state to you the benefit I have derived from the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Six months ago I was completely covered with a terrible humor and scrofulous sores. The humor caused an incessant and Intolerable itching, and the skin cracked so as to cause the blood to flow in many places whenever I moved. My sufferings were great, and my life' a burden. 1 commenced tbe use of the SARSAPARILLA in April last, and have use! It regularly since that time. My condition began to improve at once. The sores have all healed, and I feel perfectly well in every respect --being now able to do a good day's work, although 73 years of age. Many inquire what has wrought such a cure in my case, and I tell them, as I have here tried to tell you, ATKB'S SABSAPARIIAA. Glover, Vt., Oct, . H,IMi Yours gratefully, ^ H IBAJC PHILLIPS."
