Iir thi Evinino Telegraph, from Ita original establishment, has been In the receipt of telegra phic news from the New York Associated Press, which consists of the Tribune, Time, Ilerald, World, Sun, Journal of Commerce, Keening Pont, Commercial A dvSrtieer, and Evening Kxprte. The success which has attended our enterprise la, In Itself, a sufllclent evidence of the freshness, full ness, and reliability of the aews which we have received from this source. In March, 1ST0, we entered Into special contract by which The Kvknino Tki.eokaph has the exclusive use of the news furnished in the afternoon by the Associated tress to Its own members, the North American, In quirer, ljedaer, Preee, A qe, Record, and German Demo erne, of this city, and the leading journals of the East, North, West, and South; and hereafter Thb Tei.b qkaph will be the only evening paper published in this eitv In which the afternoon despatches of the Asso ciated Press will appear. rwThe earliest regular edition of the The Evknino Telegraph goes to press at o'clock, and the subsequent regular editions at 8)f, 8 V, and Si. Whenever there Is important news of the com plications In Europe, extra editions will be Issued after this hour, and before the regular time for the early edition. PEACE WITH GREAT BRITAIN. It is reported that the labors of the Joint Iligh Commission, consisting of several dis tinguished British statesmen acting in con junction with eminent Amerioan diplomats, at Washington, are progressing so favorably that a treaty, laying down principles for the adjustment of all disputed questions, will probably be framed and presented to the Benate for ratification by the 1st of May. Various causes have inspired the British Gov ernment with a sincere desire to form a durable peace, and the pending negotiations are an outgrowth of this feel ing. The late course of European events has isolated England from continental friend ships end affiliations. She has off en Jed Germany, and lost all hope for the present of finding an effective ally in Franoe. Russia has not forgiven her intervention in the Cri mea. Spain, Italy, Austria,' and Turkey have neither the ability nor the disposition to give her effective aid in any dan gerous complication. Her sagaoious Btatesmen, therefore, clearly perceive the im portance of allaying the ill-feeling generated in this country during the late war, and of depriving us of any well-founded pretext for Becking redress for past grievances at an Auspicious moment; and in the whole history of the two nations there was never a moment when England had a more earnest and sincere desire to act justly and generously towards this country. It is our traditionary policy, in turn, to ask for nothing but what is right, and to make no demands whioh an enlightened spirit of justice should not prompt Great Britain to conoede, bo that it is very probable that a treaty honorable to both countries, and covering all points in dispute, may spring from the present favorable state of publio sentiment on both sides of the Atlantic So far as popular feeling is concerned, the ten dency towards this consummation will be materially strengthened by the novel hut very appropriate Masonio demonstra tion at Washington last night. Of all the peace societies of the world, the Masons are the most ancient and the most effective. Their order, without weakening patriotism, has repeatedly mitigated the horrors of war, and practically asserted the brotherhood of mankind under the most trying and difficult circumstances. It has, of course, nothing to do, legitimately, with the grave questions of law, logio, and protocols; but it may, and probably will in the present instanoe, exercise a powerful influence in Strengthening the prevalence of the good feeling out of which a just and stable treaty would naturally spring. The so-called peaoe societies are absolutely insignificant in the scope and extent of their influence as com pared with the Masons, and if "the brethren of the myBtio tie" chose to deoree in a quiet way that Brother Jonathan and John Bull Should kiss and make friends, there is little doubt that, under the circumstances now existing, this decree will be enforced. REVENUE REFORM. The free-traders, who endeavor to disguise themselves under the name of "revenue re formers," have not made any very great head way so far, and every time they have openly attempted to display their strength they have heen defeated. These so-called "reformers" have as yet only succeeded in creating dissen sions in the ranks of the Republican party hy exciting controversies over side issues of hut little practical importance, and their coquettinga with the Demooraoy have not heen; so marked as to excite the suspi cions of those who oppose the Democraoy on ether grounds than its free-trade policy. The disoiples of the Chicago Tri bune and New York Evening Post, who Are preparing to take a new departure so soon as they see a favorable opportunity, are still letting "I dare not wait upon I would," and the next Presidential eleotiorTIs not so far off hut that it is necessary for them to trim their Bails carefully, if they do not wish to find themselves high and dry on the shores of "Salt river" beside the battered old Demo cratic hulk that has come to grief so often of late in the same locality. The peouliar posi tion in whioh the "revenue reform" free traders are placed at this particular moment renders it nnpleasant, to say the least, for them to he obliged to come to a square vote upon any ques tion of revenue policy, and we can imngine the pangs of some of the honor able gentlemen who were obliged to say "aye" or "no" to Judge Kelley's resolution defining revenue reform offered in the House of Representatives yesterday. This resolu tion, which was passed by a vote of 130 ayes to 21 noes, reaffirmed the resolution adopted on the 12th of December last by the House of Representatives of the Forty-first Congress, and declares that "the true principle of reve nue reform points to the abolition of the internal revenue system, which was created as a war measure to provide for extraordinary expenses, and the continnanoe of whioh involves the employment, at the cost of mil lions of dollars annually, of an army of asses sors, collectors, supervisors, deteotives, and other officers previously unknown, and requires the repeal at the earliest day con sistent with the maintenance of the faith and credit of the Government of all stamp and other internal taxes, and that properly adjusted rates Bhould be retained on distilled spirits, tobacoo, and malt liquors, so long as the legitimate expenses of the Government require the collection of any sum from in ternal taxes." Judge Kelley's resolution undoubtedly ex presses the only proper system of revenue reform, and the only one the people of this country will submit to at the present time, for the nation is not yet eduoated sufficiently in free-trade principles to understand that it is either benefioial or agreeable that it should submit to annoying and burdensome internal direct taxes in order that British manufac turers may be enabled to undersell our own, and that New York importers may grow rich at the expense of American industry. AMNESTY. The House of Representatives yesterday promptly passed, by a very large maj ority, an amneBty bill, from the benefits of whioh there are excluded only members of Congress who withdrew from Congress and aided the Rebellion, officers of the army and navy who aided the Rebellion, and members of the State conventions who voted for and signed ordinances of secession. We would have preferred thit there should have been no ex ceptions, and that any amnesty bill passed by Congress should be universal in its applica tion. Surely the time has now arrived when such a measure can be passed with propriety and safety, and we are convinoed that if a gecerous policy is now adopted by Congress more will be done for the pacification of the South than can ever be done by foroe or re pressive legislation. The men who are still excluded from the rights and privileges of citizenship by tha provisions of the bill passed yesterday by the House may deserve punishment, but it is a question of moment whether quite as much harm as good will nat be done by making them longer suffer the penalty for their misdeeds. The object of punishment is to reform the offender, and to make of him an ex irnple f or the benefit of those who might be disposed to imitate him; but political offenses are different from other crimes, and punishment often operates in a manner not intended, and the sufferer is looked upon as a hero and martyr rather than as a criminal. For this reason alone Con gress, in granting amnesty, should be as mag nanimous as possible. The bill, even with its exceptions, is one that cannot but have a good influence at the South, and it will do much to neutralize the effect of the Ku-klux bill now before the Senate, and which will doubtless pass in some Bhape, by convincing the decent, law-abiding people of the late Rebel States that while it may be necessary to adopt severe measures for the repression of violence, there is nevertheless a sincere desire on the part of the people of the North, and their representatives, to put an end to all the animosities exoited by the war. Tee defeat of the Communist movement in Paris, which we have predicted from the outset, grows more and more evident, as the cable despatches report new excesses of the Reds and new proofs of the growing strength of the National Government. The recent maltreatment of the priests and nuns of Paris will increase the popular indignation against the rioters, and hasten their over throw. The impracticables who disgrace liberty by confounding it with lioense, who bring discredit upon republicanism by impi ously assuming that it is the foe of religion, and who strike at the foundations of pros perity by attacking all ferms of property, must be suppressed at all hazards, and in the natural course of events they will be. Wm. W. Phelps has given 6000 volumes to Yale College, which were once a part of Von M obi's famous library at Heidelberg. The Beethoven festival in Vienna produced the handsome sum of 12,000 florins profit after deducting 20,000 florins for expenses. The letters on a trunk at a Maine depot re cently were "J. A. M., Me." The baggage smashers, however, were tender with it. A Westera magic-dealing firm reports that it bas sold about a thousand miles ot fiddle-strings since it has been In business. NOTICES.

A SIMPLE ACCOVNT or the discovery and wonderful efpects or DR. SCHRKCK'S ORKAT PULMONIC RF.MBDIBS. If a man were asked why he Injured his life, the question would be regarded as a very simple one and scarcely requiring an answer, for the reason that the advantages or life Insurance are so univer sally admitted that to doubt its utility would be to fly in the very face of reason and common sense. Now, while we Dnd so many persons not only willing, bat anxious, to make provision for the family or friends who are to be left behind, how many thou sands there are who are culpably neglectful or their own health, and who, In some Instances, ror the sake or saving the outlay or a few dollars, and in others from positive Indifference, permit their Uvea to be prematurely destroyed I If consumption were not a disease as Insidious as It is fatal, and if It were, as Is asserted by the medi cal faculty generally, incurable, there would be an apology for consumptives whe, day after day and year after year, refuse to heed the warning given by a hacking cough, a hectic cheek, cold and olammy night-sweats, and other distressing symptoms, which are the almost certain forerunners or deep seated pulmonary disease, and which, when tho roughly ingrafted Into the system, can be removed only by the use or special remedies and the observ ance or precautions the very opposite or those usu ally given by physlolans. MDy years ago these thoughts suggested them selves to the mind or Dr. Joseph H. Schenck, now of Philadelphia, but at the time or which we speak a resident or New Jersey. Himself a confirmed consumptive, and with little or no hope or recovery, but with sufficient love .of life to prompt him to make an effert to live, he patiently and thoughtfully applied himself to the scientific BUidy of the disease, which was silently, but nevertheless surely, bearing him to the grave. THE BEST MKPI0AL attendance had been secured. Remedy after remedy was prescribed, but all In vain. The ruthless disease o6tlnued Its fast hold upon him, and he was sent to Moorestown, N. J., to die. The last vestige of hope had faded away. Ills friends, who from time time visited him, bade him farewell, never again ex pecting to see him alive. But Dr. Schenok, ill as be was, and hopeless as seemed his case, did not yield to despair. Weak and prostrated, and phys'cally unable even to walk across the room, his mind was still active. He believed that God had not sent diseases WITHOUT PROVIDINO REMEDIES, and, through friends andvlsltors, continued to make unceasing inquiries for certain herbs and roots, the virtues of which he understood had been rjgatlsf ac tor 11 y proved in cases or pulmonary disease. Ills patience and perseverance were at length rewarded. The long-sought HERBS AND ROOTS WERE OBTAINED. The preparations or these were crude and simple, but their healing qualities were present notwith standing. He took them regularly, adopted a sys tem or plain but nutritious diet, remained in h's chamber, avoided drafts or cold air, exercised wlthta doors to as great an extent as his impaired strength would allow, and in a little while a change ror the better was perceptible. The tough mucus that clogged the lungs and bronchial tabes was now freely and easily expectorated. APPETITE RETURNED, and with it came strength or body and cheerfulness or mind. Cough, fever, night sweats, and pains began to leave him. Friends beheld the change with amazement; his waBted limbs regained their former rotundity, his step became elastic and firm, and the happy result was that he WAS RESTORED TO PERFECT HEALTH, and Is to-day a man advanced in years, but hale, hearty, and strong, and weighing over two hundred and twenty-five pounds; Deeply impressed with the wonderful cure that had been wrought, and thankful for his narrow escape from certain death, he re solved to apply himself to the study of medicine, and devote the remainder or his days to efforts to alleviate the sufferings or his rellow-creatures. As would be natural, his principal attention was directed to the subject or Pulmonary Diseases. The most eminent physicians in the country had assured him that CONSUMPTION COULD NOT BE CURED, and that he, being a consumptive, mus t diet Bat there he was, a living, breathing refutation of the assertions or these learned men. He that was given up as the hopeless victim or the most dreaded or all diseases stood up before the world A STOUT, STRONG MAN, and such he is to-day, though thirty-five years have elapsed since his miraculous restoration to health. "The medicines that cured me will certainly cure others. Why should not others be rescued from a premature grave as I have been T Why should not the healing virtues of roots and herbs that saved my lire save the Uvea or thousands or my fellow beings who are victims or consumption?" Thus reasoned Dr. Schenck as he applied himself to the preparation or his great remedies. After years or experiment he succeeded in perfecting his PULMONIC 8TRUP in a form so attractive and so palatable to the taste that patients take it regularly ror a long period with, out becoming nauseated by It. Hearing or his re markable enre, hundreds and thousands or patients flocked to him ror advice and medicine. These were supplied, and to-day there are many healthy men and women living who owe their health and Btrength wholly to DR. SCHKNCK'S MEDICINES. Not contest with a Blngle medicine, Dr. Schenck applied the valuable knowledge he had gained to the preparation or other.'. J t became necessary that the Pulmonic Syrup should have an assistant in its great work or restoring the system. While it drove out the Impurities, new and good blood was want ing. This could be secured only by maintaining the digestive organs In perfect condition. To accom plish this, AW ACTIVE- LIVER was essential. With this Important organ in a tor pid state, healthful digestion was impossible, and without healthful digestion there could be no pure blood. Hence it was that Dr. Schenck experimented with hla now FAMOUS MANDRAKE FILLS. The experiments were satisfactory. He found that they exercised an almost ' m aglcal influence npon the liver and stomach. The former being stimulated to healthful activity, its secretions were promoted. The bile and diseased slime which accu mulated in the stomach, and rendered its functions inoperative, were removed by the use or the Han drake Pills; the appetite was Increased ; the rood taken was properly assimilated, good blood was created in consequence, and the result a total BANISHMENT OF DISEASE. All that was now needed was a tonlo that would give nerve and energy to the still weak but perfectly cured consumptive. The system was entirely healtbv, but ties a was wanted for the limbs, and Btrength to carry it. Acting silently but powerfully in conjunction with the Pulmonic Byrup and the Mandrake Pills, " THI SEAWEED T0NI0 fulfilled Its great mission. Being an alkali, it speedily corrected any acidity of the stomach. It imparted tone and vigor to the entire system. It fitted the restored patient ror a resumption or his ordinary business duties, and put the capstone upon the great remedial structure which Dr. Schenck, after years of painful personal experience and patient scientific effort, bad reared for the bene fit of the human race. ONE THING VET REMAINED te be done. While this great work of restoration was in progress Dr. Schenck was thoroughly con vinced that exposure to draughts of cold air to the rough, rasping winds of early spring and late rail, or to the chilling blasts or winter, were almost certain death to the patient. Hence it was tbat he adopted the plan of having his patients remain In their apart ments, and taking all needful exercise there, until the diseased lungs were PERFECTLY HEALED, and what is called "pure fresh air" could be borne by them without the danger or provoking a return of the dreaded disease. The system has worked like a ;charm. The bold assertion of tlie medical faculty that consumption caunot be cured has been completely refuted, and Dr. Scbenck'a great remedies have triumphed over all opposing i elements. 411 eodoup 1124 CIIESNUT BOBBINS, CLARK & BIDDLE Ilave open for inspection eu.-.ji2 nil V-v rMHI'llllM' o TF"1 FOR Presentation Services OR HOUSE IX CIIESNUT STREET, 4 DOORS FROM TWELFTH.
