THE DAILY EVEN USUI TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, SATUUDaI, AfRIL 15, 1871. SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1871. TIIE COMMISSIONER OF rizyiTOXS. Db. IIknbt Van Aernam Ijas resigned the offloe of Commissioner of Peusions to avoid being removed, and J. n Baker, of Minne sota, has been nominated to succeed him. It is to be hoped that nnder the new Oemmis sioner some very-much needed reforms in the administration of the Tension Bureau will be Instituted, and Mr. Baker cannot make a better beginning than by the removal of Colonel W. T. Forbes, of thia city, fiomthe pension agency, over which hs has for some time presided with more advantage to him Belf than to the pensioners on his pay-rolls. Colonel Forbes was retained In office after abundant proof that he was guilty of irregu larities in the management of his agency that nnder an honest administration of the Pension Bnrean would have ensured his instant removal, but Commissioner Van Aernam undertook to whitewash him, and by so doing assumed a share of the responsibility of his performances. The case of Colonel Forbes was a great scandal, and it served to prove conclusively the corruptness of the administration of the Pension Bureau and the rottenness of the whole system of paving pensions. If Congress had been honest a law would have been passed to effect a total and radical reform, but Congress seldom or never is honest when the bread and butter of B host of professional politicians is in ques tion; and although some improvement has been effected, and the interests of the pen sioners and the publio better protected than t hey were, the administration of the Pension Bureau is still far from being what it Bhould be. If it 1b necessary to have pension agen cies, they should be given to retired officers who have been wounded in the service of their country, and who are, consequently, unfitted for active employment in either civil or military life. With such men there would be a reasonable chance that the pensioners and the Government would be honestly dealt with, and the business of the Pension Bureau would be removed out of the corrupt ing atmosphere of party politics. The pen sion agents would hold their positions by reason of their honesty and efficiency, and they would not be retained in office, as Colonel Forbes has been, after gross misconduct had been proved against them, simply because of a hope that they would prove useful as politi cal wire-pullers in an election campaign. So far as Colonel Forbes is concerned, his own admissions were sufficient to have ensured his removal if Commissioner Van Aernam had been disposed to do his duty; and the new Commissioner cannot make abetter beginning than by doing what his predecessor declined to do, and by requesting Colonel Forbes to band over his agency to soire more suitable person. Hon. James H. Baker, the new Commis sioner, is a native of Ohio, from which State he removed to Minnesota about fifteen years ago. He is a lawyer by profession, and was Secretary of State of Ohio when Chief Justioe Chase was Governor of that State. Daring the war he was a general in the army. JEHNT LIND. It is not often that we get hold of an item of news so entirely to our taste as one that we published yesterday relative to the Jenny Lind Goldschmidt libel case. That charges so con spicuously inexact, bo infamously untrue, should have been, for onoe, savagely re buked, gives us renewed faith in the trial by jury. In rendering its verdiot, the foreman Well said that the jury was of opinion that no amount of damages could really compensate the plaintiff; nevertheless, it is comfortable to feel that there was considerable money in volved, too. The whole reading world has been imposed upon by these liesubout "Jane Lynd, the singing woman," as a Quaker preacher once termed the famous songstress. For years Mr. Goldschmidt, one of the best of men and moBt attentive of husbands, has suffered from the shameful imputations that he had squandered his wife's fortune, and had even personally maltreated his wife. ' We re member reading these sad stories, and believ ing them, and many of our readers have doubtless pitied the hard fate of the lovely and gifted singer. It is good news to learn that this pity was quite wasted. For a long time lately the libellous tongues were silent, and Mr. and Mrs. Goldschmidt were congra tulating themselves upon escaping from this unenviable notoriety, when suddenly the shameful storm again arose. Such wilful, de liberate lying, without a shadow, or the shade of a Bbadow, of truth! how is it to be ex plained, ex ept on the hypothesis of the sometimes ineradicable baseness of the human heart? In making these strictures we have not for gotten that the libellers were, to an extent, victims. It appears that they did not origi nate these falsehoods, but merely copied them from an American journal. So much the worse, possibly, for the American jour nal, although the English copyists were still some to blame. Some, but not all. They should have been sure of their facts before making such violent statements. What, however, shall we say of the authors, and of Woodhuli & Claflin'i Week'y, supposing that paper to have been, as all the proceedings lead us to imagine, the original authority? There should be no mercy shown here. The World suggests that that journal should re fund the unlucky London proprietors the Bums they have been f oroed to pay in the suit: but this is the least it can do. It fur ther owes an apology to the press and to the publio. .-.. We fancy we see the animus in this matter. The Weekly, the Revolution, and papers of that ilk, are nothing if not anti-masculine. To be a man is enough with these preoioos re formers to be all that is vile. That is their stock In trade, the one bell on which they ring all their many changes. Jenny Lind ronde a fatal blunder some year aj?o, for which the aisterhood never forgive her she got marrid. Open the black book, put her down, score her under. Being a woman, however, she still had the inside traok, if wo may so express it, but no quarter for the husband, lleform ! Let us reform these reformers; that is what society wants. And we do think that a few more suoa expose as that offered by the Lynd-Qoldsahmitlt casa would go far towards reforming them out of existence. And this Mre. Woodhuli is the person who was publicly introduced to a Philadelphia andionce recently by Mrs. Lucrotia Mott. Thtt highly venerated and respected lady in dorsed the crazy philosophy of the female candidate for President, inclading, we sap pose, the principles of her ''oosmo-politio-d" party, and affirmed her belief that Mrs. Wood hull was "on the right track." Arriving here, and where we should have a olimax, we feel discouraged. Bat it has been said that truth is mighty, and some people still believe that it will prevail. And we hope, and believe too, that this libel suit will go a considerable way toward the desired end. Senator Sherman proposes to amend the pnti-Ku-klux bill by insisting that all the damages caused to property by riotous assem blages shall be collected from the coruinuui ties in which such riots occur. This would be a stf p in the right direotion, but, if pos sible, it ought to be carried further, so that all the expenses arising from military inter ference could be assessed upon the States or counties in which such interference becomes necessary. If the Ku-klnx assassins will in sist upon terrorizing the communities in which they live, their sympathizers, instead of the innocent people of the North, should be made to pay all damages. If the adoption of this policy should practically lead to the confiscation and sale of large tracts of land in radically Rebel districts, even that . result would prove benifioial rather th -n injurious, for it would tend to transfer Southern terri tory to loyal land-owners. Of one thing at blast the unreconstructed and unreoonstruct aMe authors of mischief ought to be assured that if they get up another war no pains will be spared to punish them pecuniarily as well as by force of arms. Even Rochefokt, it is said, denounces the leaders of the Parisian revolt as fools or t j rants, or both, and the whole civilized world concurs in this severe judgment. They are insanely warring against the best interests of the community in which they live, as well as against France and republicanism. If their pretended fears that monarchy will be re-established are verified, that result will be due mainly to their wild and wioked exoejses, while if a genuine republio is permanently ef-tablished it will because republican princi ples prove strong enough even to counteract the alarm created by their demonstration of the incapacity of crazy Parisians for self-gov ernment.

If a roan were snked why ha Insured his life, the quesMon would be regarded an a very simple one and scarcely requiring an auswer, fur the reason that the advantages nf lire Insurance are so univer sally admitted that to doubt Its utility would be to fly in the very face of reason aud rximmo.i senso. Now, while we and so many persons not only willing, but anxious, to make provision for the family or friends who are tj be left behind, how many thou sands there are who are culptbly neuleetful of their own health, and who, in aoine instances, for the sake of savlDg the outlay of a few dnlUrs. and in others from pnstilve ludiireronce, permit their lives to be prematurely destroyed I If consumption were not a dUeise at Insidious as It is fatal, and If it were, as Is asserted by the medi cal faculty generally, incukabi.k, there would be an apology for consuiup'.lves wh-., day after day and year after year, refuse to heed the warning given by a hacking cough, a hectic cheek, cold and clammy night-sweats, and other distressing symptoms, which are the almost certain forerunners of deep seated pulmonary disease, and which, when tho roughly ingrstted into the system, can be removed only by the use of special remedies and the observ ance of precautions the very opposite of those usu ally given by physicians. Many years ago these thoughts sugeested them selves to the mind of Dr. Jos hi-n II. Schknck, now of Philadelphia, but at the time of whea we speak a resident of New Jersey. ' Illasolf a confirmed consumptive, and with little or no hope of recovery, but with sufficient love of life t prompt him to make an effort to live, he patiently and thoughtfully applied himself t3 the scientltlo study or the ill seise which was silently, but nevertheless surely, bearing him to the grave. TDK BKPT MEDICAL attendance had been secured. Ki-medy after remedy was prescribed, but all in vain. The ruthless disease continued Its fast hold upon him, aud he was sent to Moorestown, N. J., to die. The last vejtlge of hope had faded away. His friends, who from time time visited him, bade him farewell, never again ex pecting to see him alive. But Dr. Schenok, 111 as he was, and hopeless as seemed his case, did not yield todenpalr. Weak end prrstrateri, and pliyskially unable even to walk across the roum, his mind was still active. He believed that Gjd had not sent diseases WITHOUT ritOVIDINQ REMEDIES, and, through friends and visitors, contln-ed to make unceasing lmuirles for certalu herbs aii', roots, the virtues or which he understood had been sittsfAO toillj proved In cases of pulinoaarv disease. His patience and perseverance were at leuxtii rewarded. The long-sougnt HERBS AND BOOTS WERE OBTAINED. The preparations of theso were crude and simple, but their healing qualities were present notwith standing, lie took them regularly, adopted a sys tem of plain but nutritious diet,renialned lu hs cham ber, avoided draughts of cold air, exercised within doors to as great an extent as his impaired strength would aimw, aud In a Untie while a . umra for tne better was perceptible. The lough mucus that cloggen the lungs and bronchial tubes was now freely and easily expectorated. AFPETITB RETURNED, and with it came strength of bod; aud cheerfulness of mind. Cough, fever, night sweats, aud pains began to leave nlru. Frieuus beheld the clmnge with amazement; his waned limbs revalued their former rotuudlty, his step became elastic and firm, and the happy result was that he WA8 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-live pounds. Deeply Impressed with tie wonderful cure that had been wrought, and thankful for his narrow escape from certalu death, he re solved to apply himself to the study or medicine, and devote the remainder of his days to eil'orts to alleviate the sufferings of his fellow-creatures. As would be natural, his principal atteutlou was directed to the subject of Pulmonary Diseases. The most eminent physicians lu the country had assured him ' that CONSUMPTION COULD NOT BB CURED, and that be, being a consumptive, must diet But there he was, a living, treaihing refutation of the assertions of these learned men. He that was given up as the hopeless victim of the most dreaded ol all diseases stood up before the world A HTOUr, 8TKONO MAN, and such he Is to-day, though thirty-five years have elapBed siuce his miraculous restorailou to health. "The medicines that cured me will certainly cure others. Why should not others be rescutu from a premature grave as I have been? Why should not the healing virtues of roots and herbs that saved my life save the lives of thousands of ray fellow belngs;who are the victims of cousumptlon ?" Thus reasoned Dr. Schenck as he applied himself to the preparation of his great remedies. After years of experiment he succeeded lu perfecting his PULMONIC BYRUP In a form so attractive and so palatable to the taste that patients take it regularly for a long period with out becoming nauseated by it. Hearing of his re markable cure, hundreds aud thousands of patients ducked to him for advice and medicine. Thee were supplied, and to-day there are many healthy men aud women living who owe their health and strength wholly to PR, BCHENCE'S MEDICINES. . Not content with a stDgle medicine, Dr. Schenck applied the valuable knowledge he had gained to the preparation ot others, it beciuie necessary that the Pulmonic tipi-up should have an aaslsunt la Its great worn of restoring the system. While it drove out the impurities, new and good blood was want ing. This could be secured only by malntaluing tne digestive organs in perfect condition. To accom plish this, AN ACTIVB LIVER was essential. With this important organ in a tor pid state, healthful digestion was impossible, and without healthful digestion there coubi be no pure blood. Hence It was that Dr. Schenck experimented with his now FAMOUS MANDRAKE PILLS. The experiments were satisfactory. He found that they exercised an almost magical Influence upon the liver and stomach. The lormer 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 of the Man drake Pills; the appetite was increased; the food taken was properly assimilated, good blood was created In consequence, aud the result a total BANISHMENT OF DISEASE. All that was now needed was a tonio that would give nerve and energy to the still weak but perfectly cured consumptive. The system was entirely healthy, but ilesi was wanted for the limbs, and strength to carry It. Acting silently but powerfully in conduction with the Pulmonic Syrup and the Mandrake Pills, . . THE BEAWEED TONIO fulfilled lu great mission. Being an alkali, It speedily corrected any acidity of the stomach. It Imparted tone aud vigor to the entire system. It fitted the restored patient for a resumption of his ordinary business duties, and put the capstone upon the great remedial structure which Dr. (Schenck. after years or paluful personal experience and patient scientific effort, had reared for the bene fit of the human race. , ONE THING TET REMAINED to be done. While thia great work of restoration w as In progress Dr. Scheurk was t joroughly con vinced that exposure to draughts of cold air to the reugh, rasping winds of early spring aud late fail, or to the chilling blasts of winter, were almost certain death to the patient. Hence it was that be adopted the plan of having his patients remain lu 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 duuger of provoking a return of the dreaded disease. The system has worked like a charm, 'l'he bold assertion of the medical faculty that consumption cauuot be cured has been completely refuted, and Dr. Schenck's great remedies have triumphed over all opposing elements. During the thirty-four yeara of Dr. Sohenck's very extended practice, be has frequently examined Qve hundred patients a week In the cities of Boston, New Yr, and Philadelphia. BelDg well advanced in years, his prcfenslonal visits to other cities have ieen dlscotitlnued, though he still continues !o give bis personal attention to the examination of patients at his principal oillce in Philadelphia, being assisted Id his arduous duties by his sou, Dr. JOSEPH H. bOJENCK, Jr., who is a regular graduate of Jef ferson Medical College, and la in every way quail- tied fur the efficient discharge of the Important duties devolving upon biui. l'atiuots who desire a thorough .examination of their lunirs. with the aid of Dr. SOHENCK'S RB3PI LOMLTtU, can be accommodated at all times aud receiv the nesded information as to their condi tion, ana the method of treatment, for Five Dollars.
