It contains no impure stimulant, but Its stimulating properties are as pure a tho best Frenoh braudy. 1 he Mandrake rills cleanse the stomach and act npon the livor, which is more or less derangod In evory oase of Con sumption; and tho Mandrake Till is the only remedy that contains no calomel or other injurious Ingre dient, that will restore this important organ so that it may perform its propor funoiions. It will thus be readily soen that these remcdios act togetbor in perloct harmony, and, m every instance, when taken in time, and according to directions, they will cute Consumption. To cure Consumption, or any disease leading to it, a strict course must be pursuod, differing materially Irom that laid down by the iacnlty. In tho first placo, they must prevent taking cold; even alight colds must be ptevented. This must aud can be done, or else there is no uso in tiring to bo cured. In ordur to do this in win'er, the pationt must stay in tho houso and kocp it one temoeraturo with the thermometer; then wak about the bouse as much a possiblo to keep the blood in circulation, and at the tame time practiso breathing to expand tho chest. Schenck's l'ulmonio Syrup, Sew-Weed Tonic, and Mandrake 1'il s aro require! in noarly evory ooso In bronchitis acd laryngitis, or clergyman's soro throat, tho liver must be acted on freely with the Mandrake Tills. Frequently in diarrhoea it is propor to tuko the F lis to carry it ofl. Fhysicians recommond patients to ride out and get the iresh air. What good does it dot It miy satisfy tho patient's mind, but it lays them liable to tfcke cold, porhupa not a heavy one, but onough to irritate tho bronchial tubes, and yet hardly porcopti ble, but sufficient to throw them back two weeks, and they goon this way and are never cured. All tbroe of those medicines have full directions, and thoy aro all taken at tho samo time, tho same day; and any person, with a httlo judgraont, with ono lung nearly gono, can euro thcinsolvos without ever ' acoing mo, although where it is convenient it is best to come and bo examined with the re spirometer, which only costs throe dollars; then they will know their truo condition. Thou sands that have been conQnol to their bods with Consumption have boon curod by them that I never saw. Keep tho stomach cleansed of the mucus with the Fills and Tonic; the appotito will soon come, then eat neb, sreasy, healthy lood; nature will soon begin to thiow off tho diseaso, and the pationt will become lnt and hearty. When thoso medicines got thoroughly through tho system, person are not near so liable to tuko cold, jet great care snould be taken ' lor it is liko ny other disease -a relapse is very dan gorou. Many years ago I was given np as being in tho lata stages of consumption, und was tukon from uomo in l'hiludo pluu, to hit friends in Moorestown, K. J., to die. I was soon taken down to my bod, and lay ibero many weeks, apparently in a sinking con cition. 1 hen I hourd ot and obtained tnose propa rations of roots and herbs, which, to the astonish ment ol everybody, soon made a groat chamro in my system tor tho belter. It seemed to mo that I could fetltbcm penetrate my whole system; the matter ripened in my lunes, an d I would spit oft moro than a pint of oilensive yellow matter every morning jb y appetite was nearly gono at ono time; but it became so great that It was with difficulty I cou'd retrain from eating too much. My cough, lover, pain, and night sweats all begin to leave me; gained In strength, and havo been increasing la fle-h ever since, M y disease was hereditary; mr lather, mothor, brothers, and Bisters, all died of Consumption.

In fuot, I was driven to it by the great number of people coming to me, or tending for ine, from all parte, to cuie thum; and I flatter myself that at this day I havo as muoh experience and success in the treatment of this disease as any other person in the country.

CONGRESS, j W8n.!NOTOH, March 21. JIe)nMi of Bepreaent-ttreei. The House met as in Committee of the Whole on tbe State ol tbe Uuioi. The only business ia rder Ning a general debute on tho President's Annual Message, the attendance both on the floor and in the eallerlct was very slim. Mr. Brooks (ti. Y.) rose to a personal cxplav nation in reference to tbe OUA report ot lh fliscuesion between himself and the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Garfield), on Thnraday last. Ho ataf that the remarks pnr porting to hovo been mado by Mc. Garfield were not heard by him (Mr. Biooks), aud were, as ho undor steod them, Innorret-tly rrortcd, Bltliouh it was not for htm to say how or when the niisir porting occurred. It was tt him a matter of comparatively little importance excevt that he . wished to stand i rieht 'upon the record. Relerrirrr to the reports mnae oy iir. liarflcld Ian Confrress from the Bolcct Committee to invMtlfato Into the man Reuient of the Currency l'rioiiDR Bureau, be lound that slthoneh it was not signed it com menced ly recitinjf that "Mr. GarBeld, from tho Select Committee, etc., made the fb'.lowinR re port." The minority leport was- sitrned bjlilm selt' (Mr. Crocks), aud Messrs, Stewart, Steol, and Dawson. Ho had a tetter read lrom Mr. Jordan, Solicitor to the Treasury to Mr. Chaso, stating as the result of un investigation made by him Into the charge against 8. M. Clark, he had received an entire conviction that tbe most ma terial part of the statements were true. Mr. Uarfleld (Ohio) said that he was oblijrod to the gentleman from Now York for the correc tion he had made. It was the universal custom for ono member authorized by a Committed to make the report, and that had been done In this case. He had been authorized by a majority ot the Committee to make the report. It' he had not been so authorized surely some one of the four members associated with him (Messrs,. Davifi, of Maryland; Wilson, of Iowa; Jenekos, ot Rhode Island; and Fenton, of New York.) would have made a correction. The conclusion of the report which he had made was in these words: , Resolved, That tho polioy of printing public money in the Treasury has resulted ia a treat savinir of expense tn the Uoverninent and security against trends, ana that the affairs of tho printing bureau have been administered with markod ability and Integrity. ( In addition to this thcro was, a report from Governor Fenton expressly e tan tig that he con curred with the report eif the Committee in evcrytlvng, except a rellcciion on the Sew York: Rank Note Company. Mr. Wilen (Iowa) said that he had not con curred in the conclusions ol the Committee, and that if the report had been presented to hint lor his signature, he wonld aot have signed it. Mr. Garfield (Ohio) Mated that this was tho first time he knew that the gentleman from Iowa dissented fr mi the report of . the majority. The majority bad authorized him (lie liariieldj tofmiike it and he had iiialo it. Mr. Wilson (Iowa) aid ihat he had been asked by Mr. Henry W nter Duvis, a member of tbe committee, whether ho was willing to sign the report and had replied that ho was not, as he did not aprree with th committee In its conclusions as set forth in the report, and in the resolution accompaniu; it.

Sbo visited every ward, and thus thoroughly Inspected all the departments. She was attended throualioiit her examination by Dr. 8. W. Butler, the Cliiof Resident l'hystcian, and his assistant, l)r. A. M'irviu She Thi diatintruishi'd lady expressed her views very lull ana cleurly oniho.sabift.-t of tlio treat ment of this most unl'ortuaate clss ot tbe com munity, and displayed very great astonish ment at find'ntr so few of the patients under any physical restraint, and could not sutUciuiuly admiru the harmony uud order vihich prevailed on evety hand the entire cleialiness of the whole establishment, under the household nianncement of Mis. Mary L. Gety, the very ablo Uouskkettper and Supervisor. What sue seemed to lament most was tho utter uu lilacs ot the building for the purposes tor which it w em ployedits want el suilicient room, aud the con sequent crovrdine together of the patients; the incspability, in its limited accommodations, of aH'oulinp them necessary and iiided indupeusu ble oxercise; its want ot shade; an.l the conse quent unnecessary loss ol life which must una voidably ensue in case ot tho visitation of an epidemic l'kc the Asiatic cholera, and warmly advocated its early re moval to a greater distance from the city, where such ot the inmates, aa w$r traphblu could be employed in such labor. All ot this was duly admitted by the Chiof Resident Phy sicion, who, jear ol'ter year, had warmly advo cated the same doctrine, and had more than once iiiyed such a course upon tho Oiwru'Laiis ot the I'oor, without, however, meeting with any success. Notu ne escaped the lady's ealo vision, and she inqurcd into overythinar. During tae progress ot her visit she met several of the Guardians, Friday being a regular committee day, to whom she talked very freely on the subject, not only of the removal of tho insane irom their present illy-adapted location, but also of the Almshouse itself, lamenting cer tain contemplated expenditures, which she con sidered ''to much money thrown away," and which she thought "would be batter employed in the construction ct new bull ting at a more reuiotu spct than that which it now occupies," and warmly opposed the erection of the new "Children's Asylum" on the spot which, has bern f elected fonts site. She was evidently "nilsti t-tof the situation" of alfairs in all such iustitu .jus, and spoke with her usual eloquence. She subsequently visited ths Molical Depart ment of the Almshouse, in company with Mr. John M.
