[Piam the Kansas Nebraska Bill.]
"IT BEING THE INTENT AND MEANING OF THIS
BILL NOT TO 'LEGISLATE SLAVERY INTO ANY TER
AITORY OR STATE, NOR EXCLUDE IT THEIREFROM•
BUT TO LEAVE THE PEOPLE THEREOF PERFECTLY
FREE ,TO FOJtM AND REGULATE THEIR. DOMESTIC
INSTITUTIONS IN THEIR OWN WAY,- SUBJECT TO
THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES."
[Resolution of the Cincinnati Democratic Convention.]
" Resolved, That we recognize the RIGHT OF THE PEO
PLE of all the Territories, including Kansas and Nebraska,
ACTING TIIROUGH THE LEGALLY .AND FAIRLY EXPRESSED WILL OF
A MAJORITY OF ACTUAL RESIDENTS, and whenever the number
of their inhabitants justifies it, TO FORM- A CONSTITU
TION, with or without domestic slavery, and be admitted
into to the Union upon terms of perfect equality with the
other States."
• -[From President Buchanan's inaugural.]
"What a conception, then, was it for Congress to apply
this simple rule—that the will of the majority shall govern
—to the settlement of the question of domestic slavery in
the Territories
"But be this as it may, it is the iniperativc and indispen
sable duty of the Government of the United States to secure
to every resident inhabitant the free and independent expres
sion of his opinion by his vote. THIS SACRED MGM OF EACU
INDIVIDUAL MUST BE PRESERVED
[From Gov. Walker's Letter to the President, accepting his
Appointment.]
" I understand that you and your Cabinet cordially con
cur in the opinion expressed by me, that the actual bona
fide residents of the Territory of Kansas, by a fair and reg
ular vote, unaffected by fraud or violence, must be permitted,
in adopting their State Constitution, to decide for themselves
what shall be their social institutions. This is the great
fundamental principle of the act of Congress organizing
that Territory, affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United
States, and'is in accordance with the views uniformly ex
pressed by me throughout my'public career. I contem
plate a peaceful solution of this question by an appeal to
the Intelligence and patriotism of the people of Kansas,
who should all participate freely and fully in this decision,
and by a majority of whose votes the decision must be
made, as the only and constitutional mode of adjustment.
"I will go and endeavor to adjust these difficulties, in the
full confidence, as strongly expressed by you, that I will be
sustained by all your own high authority with the cordial
co-operation of all your Cabinet."
" [instructions to Governor Walker.
" There are two great objects connected with the present
excitement, growing out of the affairs of Kansas, and the
attainment of which will bring it to a speedy termination.
These were clearly and succinctly stated in the President's
recent Inaugural Address, and I embody the paragraphs in
the communication, asking your special attention to them.
It is declared in that instrument to be the imperative and
indispensable duty of the Government of the United Slates
to secure to every resident inhabitant the free and indepen
dent expression of his opinion by his vote. This sacred right
of each individual must be preserved; and that being ac
complished, nothing can be fairer than to leave the people
of a Territory, free from all foreign interference, to decide
their own destiny for themselves, subject only to the Con
stitution of the United States.
"Upon these GREAT RIGHTS OF INDIVIDUAL AC
TION AND OF PUBLIC DECISION rusts the foundation of
American institutions; audit* they are faithfully secured
to the people of Kansas, the political condition of the
country will soon become quiet and satisfactory. TILE IN
STITUTIONS OF KANSAS SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED
BY THE VOTES OF THE PEOPLE OF KANSAS, unawcd
and uninterrupted by force or fraud. And fi.reign voters
must be excluded, come whence they may, and every at
tempt to overawe or interrupt the free exercise of the right
of voting must be promptly repelled and punished. Free
dom and safety for the legal voter, and exclusion and pun
ishment for the illegal one—these should be the great prin
ciples of your administration."
[Front Walker's Inaugural Address, approved by the who:e
Cabinet.]
"Unless the Convention submit TUE CONSTITUTION
to a vote of all the actual resident settlers of Kansas, and the
election be fairly and justly conducted, THE CONSTITUTION
WILL BE, AND OUGHT TO BE, REJECTED BY CONGRESS."
[FVOM Governor T{ldker's TopeTaz Spe , rh.]
"I will say then to you, gentleman, that if they do not
appoint a fair and impartial mode by which the majority
of the actual bona..ftele resident settlers of Kansas shall -cob',
through the instrumentality of impartia judges, .1 will join
you in all lawful opposition to their doings. and the Presi
dent and Cbngress will reject the Constitution.
"I say to you, that unless a full awl fair oppnrtunityis
given to the ple of Kansas to decide for Meniselres' avlwt
skull be their form. of Government, including the sectional
question which has so long divided you—unless, 1 rrpeat,
they grant you such an opportunity. I have one power of
which - no man or set of Wien can deprive me, and to which
I shall unhesitatingly resort, and that is to join you in law
ful opposition to their acts."

TtiE DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.—On
to-morrow the Democratic Delegates from
the counties of the State -will assemble at
Harrisburg for the purpose of nomniating
candidates for Supreme Judge and Canal
Commissioner, to be supported by the party
at the nest General Election. The Pennsyl
vanian and few other papers are urging the
passage by the Convention, of resolutions
strongly endorsing the action and policy of
the Administration of President Buchannan,
including the admission of Kansas as a State
under the Lecompton Constitution. No Dem
ocrat will object to an endorsement of Mr.
Buchanan's views on all questions save that
of the Leconzpton outrage. If a Majority of
the Delegates will force through the Conven
tion an endorsement of the Calhoun swindle,
the responsibility of hazarding the success of
their-nominees must and will rest with them.
A large majority of our party, the honest
masses, honestly differ with the President on
the Kansas question,—they are men—free
men—and will not be forced to endorse,a
wrong, an outrage upon their fellow citizens
in Kansas. We can be sucessful upon no
other platform than that upon which Presi
dent Buchanan 'and Governor Packer were
elected.
THE HUNTINGDON WATER CO3IPA.Ny.—An
Act incorporating the Huntingdon Water
Company,- has passed both branches of the
Legislature and been signed by the Governor.
The commissioners named in the Act, are:
non. James Gwin, John Scott, Esq., J. Simp
son Africa, Dr. B. B. Murtrie, William P.
Orbison and William Dorris, Jr., Esqs. The
capital stock is fixed at twelve thousand dol
lars, to be divided into shares of twenty-five
dollars each.
It is to.be hoped that the pride of the "an
cient borough," may be raised, and this much
needed improvement completed. Capital is
not wanting here; the people have it, and
should each one subscribe what he is well
_ able to spare, the amount required could soon
be obtained and the work commenced. Cit
. izens, shall we have water?
DM-George' M. Dallas will come home.—
He stands with Douglas against the Lecomp
ton fraud.
OUR BOROUGH CIIARTER.-A bill will be
introduced into the Legislature in a few days,
the effect of which will be if passed, to
so amend the charter of incorporation of the
borough of Huntingdon, as to make the term
of the Burgesses and members of, the Town
Council three years, instead of one, as it is
at present, and to make one-third of the
number elective annually. The advantage
expected to be gained by the proposed change
is the retention in office, of members who have
be come acquainted with the previous year's
business, and thereby avoid the inconveni
ence Occasioned by the election of an entire
board of new officers, as frequently occurs
under the present system. If the bill is pas
sed, the next election, on the first Monday of
April, will be governed by its provisions.
The friends of the measure think there can
not be any objection to its adoption, but be
ing desirous that the public may be apprized
of the features of the bill, requests is to
make this' statment, so that those opposed
may have an opportunity in season, of expres
sing their objections to the same.
A Pact for Mr. Buckalew.
It has already been shown (says the Press)
that it will be imposible to amend the Lc
compton Constitution until 1864, without a
resort to revolution. Judge Douglas, in his
report, is irresistible on this point. Even if
Calhoun gives the Legislature to the free-
State men, they will not have the requisite
two-thirds. The power of keeping Kansas a
slave Slate mill be with the pro-slavery minor
ity, be cause they will have the machinery of
the State Government. Mr. Buckalew, of
our State Senate, has made a long report in
support of the Administration policy in Kan
sas, (which report, had it been printed prior
to the late Gubernatorial election, when Mr.
Buckalew was chairman of the State Central
Committee, would have defeated Gen. Packer
about 50,000 votes,) and especially in sup
port of the idea alluded to in the beginning
of this article. In order to "show how this
business of altering the Constitution, outside
of its own forms, is regarded in the South,
we give the following curious but conclusive
extract from a speech made by Mr. Carr, the
pro-slavery member of Congress [not elec
ted, but put in by Calhoun] who will take
his seat as from Kansas, if Lecompton shall
succeed. We copy from the proceedings of
a public entertainment given at Charleston,
S. C., (of which place Mr. Carr is a native,)
ou the 18th of February. He said:
" At last the President, in his late message,
does something like justice to the Southern,
pro-slavery, law and order, Democratic party
of Kansas. Once admitted there is hope of
peace and quiet—the issue will be local, and
the people - of the Territory will take care of
their own affairs. The sectional policy of the
Black Republicans has, in spite of their ef
forts, given the victory to the' South. The
South must and can keep Kansas aslave State.
The soil is rich, the climate fine. Let South
ern men come in and take possession. In two
years the next election will take place. Nor
thern men are coming in. Will Southern
men do likewise? It is for them to decide
the ultmate fate of Kansas."
"IN TWO YEARS!" How would Mr.
Buckalew's present proposal serve to keep
the glorious Democratic district he represents
from Sailing into the hands of the "Black
Republicans," if, at the end of two years,
viz.: 1860, Kansas should still be a slave
State; thus fulfilling the prophecies of our
opponents in 1855.
Mr. Carr, who is to represent Kansas in
Congress under the Lecompton decree, plain
ly tells us that "the South must and can keep
Kansas a slave State !" How? Not, certain
ly, by Mr. Buckalew's plan of allowing the
people to change the Constitution onside of
its own provisions.
No wonder, after this speech of Mr. Carr,
that Colonel Rhett, the great diunion leader,
should have made a speech, and wound it up
with the following sentiment:
"THE HEROES OF THE KANSAS CONSTITU
TIONAL CONVENTION: A body of men never
surpassed in the nerve and ability displayed
in defence of the Southern cause. The peo
ple of the South praise the men, and back
their measure and action."
p W;{o)
WARREN CO, ILLEslots, February 16, 185 S
FRIEND LEWIS : I-have concluded to write
you a short epistle to let you know how mat
ters are progressing in this land of Prairies.
First, the health of the country is very good.
I know of no sickness whatever, among the
neighbors at this time. The weather is very
fine, with a snow of a foot or more on the
ground; it is just cold enough to make good
sleighing. Times are no worse than when I
last wrote to you. The farmers, thanks to
the hogs, have been, able to raise money to
pay their taxes, and some of their most
urgent .debts. They are still holding on to
their Wheat, with a hope of better prices in
the Spring; but the panic has made them a
little more cautious in regard to making
debts than heretofore. A good many who,
a year ago, were " pitching in" to get fencing
ready for the spring crop, are holding back
to see whether it will pay, and a good deal
of last year's breaking will lie out if the tight
times continue.' But it is having a good ef
fect on many persons ; as Greely says, "we
are mending our old clothes instead of buy
ing new ones." Retrenchment seems to be
the order of the day, and with the reduction
in the price of groceries—sugar and molas
ses particularly, both of whic are used ex
tensively out here, and with a corresponding
reduction in the price of labor, which is ex
peeted, the farmers here may be able another
year, if we practice the lessons of economy
we are learning, to make both ends meet
again, even with low prices for our produce.
But a good many -who went in debt a year
or two ago, expecting to make the money to
get out again, from the last season's crop,
will come out the wrong side, I fear. Al
ready, notices of constable sales are getting
more common than formerly, although not
near so common as many expected a few
months ago. There have been no failures
as yet, among the business men of this section.
In politics, Kansas occupies all the atten
tion. In our county, in which there was over
eleven hundred votes polled for Buchanan,
we have only one man openly in favor of the
Lecompton Constitution, and there is said to
be one other leaning that way. The fact is,
the Democracy of this section are a unit on
that point. We battled for the right of the
people of every State and every Territory to
regulate their owu domestic concerns in their
own way, subject only to the Constitution of
the United States ; and we replied to the
taunts of the opposition that we were pro
slavery, that with slavery we had nothing to
do, that if the people of Kansas wanted slav
ery they might have it, if they did not want
it, no earthly power had a right to force it
on them; and we still stand firm,
trusting
that better counsels will yet prevail, and that
Congress willyet ignore Lecompton and give
the people a air chance to form, as well as
afterwards regulate their own domestic insti
tutions in their own way.
This is a good time here for killing off
rabbits, which, by the way, arc a nuisance,
as they peel the young apple trees in the
winter. This afternoon, myself and a neigh
bor spent an hour or so, with a couple of
dogs, in a hazel rough near his buildings ;
we killed a baker's dozen of the " varmints,"
and laid them up for the crows to pick.
The cold snap in November killed nearly
all the corn that was out at the time, so that
seed corn will be an object in the spring.—
What is to be done, I cannot tell, unless
there is enough of old corn in the country
for seed. But I must close. P. J.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
MONDAY - , Feb. 22.—According to previous
arrangement, the Senate, at 3- o'clock, re
paired to the Hall of the House of Repre
sentatives, where, in the presence of the Sen
ators, Representatives, the Governor and
Heads of Department, the farewell address
of George Washington was read. After the
reading was concluded, the Senate returned
to its chamber, and in conformity with the
time-honored custom, in commemoration of
the birth-day of the Father of our country,
both Houses adjourned.
TUESDAY. ,Senate.—A great number of
petitions were presented asking the repeal of
the tonnage tax. Mr. Brewer presented a
petition from citizens of Huntingdon county
desiring a change in the license law; he
read in place, a bill fixing the Supreme
Court permanently at Harrisburg. House.
—The bill authorizing the -School Directors
of Walker township, Huntingdon county, to
select sites for school-houses, passed first and
second readings. The bill extending the
charter of the Perry county Mutual Insu
rance Company, also passed second reading.
A message from the Governor was received,
announcing that he bad signed a number of
bills, among which was the one incorporating
the Huntingdon Water Company. This will
give the rich and liberally disposed citizens
of your borough an opportunity to invest
their money in a good and much needed im
provement. Certainly, there is no want of
capital in Huntingdon to carry out the de
sign of the friends of this measure.
WEDNESDAY. Senate.—Mr. Buckalew, chair
man of the select committee on Kansas af
fairs, made a lengthy report, which has been
published in most of the newspapers. The
report was signed by the Democratic mem
bers of the committee and dissented from by
the opposition members. It takes strong ad
ministration grounds, -and finds advocates
and dissenters among the Democrats. Leave
was given to the minority to make a report.
The bill graduating lands upon which pur
chase money is due the Commonwealth,
passed finally. This act substitutes instead
of the appraizing provisions of the act of
1835, which has expired by limitation, a
mode 'of charging interest regulated by the
price per acre at which lands were sold at
the time improvement was made, or warrant
granted. It goes into effect immediately af
ter it becomes a law.
THURSDAY. Senate.—The bill to remove
disability of witnesses on account of religious
belief was taken up, very freely discussed,
and negatived by a vote of 15 to 13. The
bill• relating to the resumption of specie pay
ments by the banks was taken up ; Messrs.
Bell, Southers, and Marselis, discussed its
merits, when it was postponed.
Rouse.—Petitions were presented favoring,
the repeal of the tonnage-tax; for a new coun
ty out of parts of Crawford and Warren ;
for and against the formation of a new coun
ty, to be called Pine, out of parts of Cambria,
Indiana and Clearfield"; for and against the
license law ; for and against the County Su
perintendency; six praying that the County
Superintendency may be abolished in Union
county; five for a revision of, the present li
cense law, and three remonstrances against
the annexation of any part of Huntingdon
county to Fulton,w ere presented by Mr. Houtz.
The Committee of Ways and Means reported
a bill for the sale of the State Canals to the
Sunbury and Erie Railroad Company. A bill
was reported chartering the Fulton county
Insurance Company. Is there not enterprise
in Huntingdon county sufficient to get up a
company of this kind ? Annually your citi
zens are called upon to pay assessments to re
imburse losses sustained by people of other
portions of the Commonwealth. Alaw char
tering a company to make insurances in Hun
tingdon county only—and prohibiting other
companies from interfering there, would be
of great advantage to the property-holders,
and should meet with their favor.
FRIDAY. Senate.—Petitions were numer
ously presented praying the passage of a law
requiring coal dealers- in Philadelphia, to
weigh coal at the consumer's doors. A re
monstrance from Huntingdon county against
the repeal of the Buckalew liquor law was
presented by Mr. Schell. Mr. Creswell read
a bill providing for the running of the boun
dary line between the county of Blair and
the counties of Huntingdon, Bedford and
Clearfield.
H021,98.-13y resolution, the House agreed
to adjourn on next Thursday at 10 ! 1: o'cloCk,
untill the next Monday at 5 o'clock, P.M.—
This is done in order to give the use of the
Hall to the Democratic State Convention.—
The committee on Banks, reported with a
negative recommendation, the bill chartering
the Mifflin county bank. Mr. Houtz, read
in place . a bill relative to *hawkers and ped
dlers in the county 'of Huntingdon. Mr.
Spyker of Jefferson, read a bill to be called
the last will and testament of Pennsylvaia.
It is a funny production and gave occasion
for considerable merriment.
SATURDAY. Senate.—The bill entitled,
"An Act to authorize the Governor to appoint apprais
ers to assess and report the damages sustained by trans
porters and others, by reason of the sale of the Main Line
of the Pennsylvania Canal,"
was Passed. The bill relative to the School
Directors of Walker township, was passed.
The House was not in Session. "'
MONDAY, March Ist
The Kansas Herald of the 13th ult, the on
ly paper published at Leavenworth (if not in
the Territory) which advocates the accept
ance of the Lecompton Constitution, has the
following article in reference to the election
returns from the Delaware Crossing pre
cinct: -
" Recent developments poncerning these
returns show there is something rotten in
Denmark. We go for our- party and its suc
cess, but we will not advocate or sanction a
fraud for that purpose. Whatever of fraud
has been committed in the elections, must be
-charged to those committing it. We learn
that the judges at Delaware Crossing have
made affidavit that the returns found - hurried
in a box are fraudulent ; that their certificate
has been cut off from the original list of
names, and appended to a false list of three
hundred and seventy-nine names.
"Who committed this act ? is the question.
There is no evidence that these returns hive
ever been taken into the count by General
Calhoun; and hence he nor the party can be
made accountable for them. It is too buno.-
ling a fraud ; it is too palpable to be used by t '
any party. We do not believe they have
been used in the counting or footinc , up of
the election returns. There is no Democrat
willing to accept an office made clearly to de
pend upon such returns."
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, Feb. 15.
The Investigating Commission for the In
vestigation of the election frauds sat through
the whole of Saturday night. Dr. Sabin, of
BroWnsville, Kansas, a reliable gentleman,
was one of the witnesses examined. He tes
tified that about two weeks before the 4th of
January he was in the Virginia Hotel, Jef
ferson city, Missouri, and there overheard a
conversation between Governor Stewart of
Missouri and Frank Marshall, of Kansas.—
Stewart assured Marshall that arrangements
bad been perfected by which several hundred
voters were to be sent over into the border
precincts to participate in the election. Ile
gave hips the full details of the localities and
numbers.
The sergeant-at-arms of the commission
bad just returned from Johnson county with
four persons who were implicated, directly
or indirectly, in the enormous frauds of the
fourth of January election.
Shawnee precinct, as you will remember,
returnedever nine hundred votes. C. C. Gog
fray, ori , 6 of the clerks of election there, was
examined under oath. After some hesita
tion, finaly gave a full history of the affair.
He swore there were but about one hundred
and' Sixty-three honest votes polled. The
polls closed at nine o'clock P. M. Early the
next morning he and the other clerk went
over to Westport, Missouri, and there, in
Col. Boone's store, added several hundred
names to those of the bona
. fide voters. The
names were read to them from some list by a
son of Rev. " Toni Johnson," and other pro
slavery men. The judges' certificates (which
had been made out on separate sheets of pa
per) were pasted at the foot of these bogus
returns, and they were then sent to Mr. Cal
houn. The judges corroborated this testi
mony fully, and swore that several hundred
names had been added to the returns after
the polls were closed and they had made out
their cetificates.
The Spring Hill returns showed d free-
State majority. The pro-slavery messenger
by whom they were sent in never delivered
them, and now swears that he lost them on
the way.
TUE PACIFIC HOTEL DISASTER.—From the
St. Louis papers we learn that a man named
Taylor alias Sanders has been arrested on
charge of murdering a Mr. Doane in his bed,
for the purpose of getting possession of $4,000,
and afterwards firing the hotel to hide the
murder. •
The New Church Edifice of the German Reformed Con
gregation of this place, will be dedicated, Providence per
mitting, to the service of the Triune God, on the FIRST
SAIMA.TEI i e 51.4.ncia. The Rev. Dr. Schaff, of the Theologi
cal Seminary at 3.lercersburg, will assist the PaStor on the

By order of the COMMITTEE.
lEUNTINGDON, Feb. 17, ISSB.
Ma. EDITOR:—The offerings of sympathy, though they
cannot restore to the bereft the lovely departed, yet may
soothe the Borrowing breast and wipe away the mourner's
tear. Though, to speak of the virtues of the dead, cannot
call them from their present abode, yet there is consola
tion in the knowledge of, their light having shone, that
others seeing, might emulate their character. We doubt
not it may be thus with her whose decease we noticed in
this morning's "Globe," who, not long ago was in your
midst, but is now released from Earth's sin, toil and pain.
Lovely and gentle, kind and affectionate, with a mind well
cultivated, yet ever anxious to add to its store new truths;
and a heart enriched by Religion's holy coronet. She was
a friend to be prized, a sister to be loved, a. daughter to be
highly esteemed. Iler's was a spirit too pure fur earth;
like a fair and blooming flower tou tender for the changing
scenes of life she has been transplanted—we trust—to blos
som forever in. the Paradise of God.
Death under all circumstances is fraught with sorrow to
the living, but more especialy when the young and lovely
are cut down iu their sphere of usefulness; and yet 'tie
sweet to see the fading flower; 'tie sweet to see a spirit
wing its flight upward before it has learned the evils of
earth; and sweet is the assurance that though the form
has faded—though it rests in the lone grave, yet the never
dying soul still lives, and lives in a fairer, purer Home ;
and yet far sweeter than all is the hope of a re-union of
soul with soul in eternity.
That her passport to the eternal world was a happy one,
we have every assurance, and the following beautiful
thoughts expressed by her in a recent letter to the writer
of this article, will be no less consoling to her bereaved pa
rents and friends, than they were in a similar hour of af
fliction to him.
Do not murmur—lie doeth all things well—and who
would call adeparted loved one back again from that bright
home in Heaven ' to mingle with the toils and pains of this
our sinful world? The holiest and purest, most delicate
and refined of our affections linger round the grave of some
departed one; and there is something in the memory of
those who havi3 passed away like a fairy dream, and sleeps
beneath the 'sod of the valley,' which inspires our hearts
with a thoughtful spirit of devotion, and bears our thoughts
far above the perishable pleasures of this cold unfeeling
world, and our whole nature seems to center in the desire
to join them in their happy home . . Oh I what a mockery
the pleasun;s of this life seem when compared with hap-
Ptness such as they enjoy? and though we sport along in
the bright , Sunshine of our existence, forgetful of the past.
often reckless of the future, our earthly happiness is but
dross when compared with the celestial bliss of that bright
world where holy spirits ever bask in the light of one eter
nal day : " A FRIEND.

MARCH APPOINTMENTS
nR. lIARDMAN, Physician for the .
disease of the Lungs, (formerly Physician to Cincin

as follows :

Hollidaysburg, Exchange hotel, c, 15:
Lewistown, National Hotel, 17.
Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, AstlunS i
Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and lungs, by
Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Brointon Hospital,
London. The great point in the treatment of all human
maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact upon which
Inhalation is based. If the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are dis
eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines are antidotes to disease and should
be applied to the very seat of disease. Inhalation is‘the
application of this principle to the treatment of the lungs,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and
tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad
ministering medicines. The reason that Consumption,
and other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore resisted
all treatment-has been because they have never been ap
proached in a direct manner by medicine. They were in
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet were applied totho
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should only act con
stitutionally, expending their, immediate and principal ac
tion upon the unoffending stomach, whilst the foul 'deers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—ln relation to the following dis
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex
isting alone, I also invite consultation, I usually find them
promptly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of Female Complaints, Ir
regularities and Weakness.
Palpitation and all other forms of Heart Disease, Liver
Complaints, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases of stomach
and bowels, &c.
All'diseases of the eye and ear. Neuralgia, Epilepsy,
and all forms of nervous disease.

These Periodicals ably represent the three great political

have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters, being con
sidered indispensable to the scholar and the professional
man, while to tho intelligent reader of every class they
furnish a more correct and satisfactory record of the cur
rent literature of the day, throughout the world, than can ,
be possibly obtained from any other source.
