By order of the Committee. F. W. HUGHES, Chairman. Philadelphia, July 29th, 1862. ME. LINCOLN’S EMANCIPA TION SCHEME. HIS APJPJBAXi TO THE BOADEg STATES—THE AASMER. • Prom the National Intelligencer, July 18. [The Bepresentative? and Senators of the Border Slaveholding States haying, by speoial invitation of the .President, been convened at the Executive Mansion on Saturday morning last, Mr. Lincoln addressed them as follows from a written paper held in his hands :J THE PEESIDENT’S APPEAL. Gentlemen : After the adjournment of Congress, i now near, 1 shall have no opportunity of seeing yon I for several months. Believing that yon of the ! Border States hold more power for good than any other equal number of members, I feel it a duty which 1 cannot justifiably waive to make this appeal to yon. Emancipate for Money Now , or Wait and Lose All. X intend no reproach or complaint when i assure you that, in my opinion, if you all had voted for the resolution in the Gradual Emancipation Message of last Maroh, the war would now be substantially ended. And the plan therein proposed is yet one of the most potent and swift means of ending it.— Let the States which are in rebellion see definitely and certainly that in no event will the States yon represent join their proposed Confederacy, and cannot much longer maintain the oontest. But you’' cannot divest them of their hope to ultimately have you with them so long as you show a determination to perpetuate the institution within yoor own States. Beat them at elections, os you have overwhelmingly done, and, nothing daunted, they still claim you as their own.' You and I know what the lever of their power is. Break that lever.before their face 3, and they can shake yon no more for ever. Most of you have treated me with kindness and consideration, and I trust you will not now think I improperly touch what is exclusively your own, when, for the sake of the whole country, X ask, “ Can you, for your States, do better than to take 1 the course! urge?” Discarding punctilio and max ims adapted to more manageable limes, and looking only to the unprecedentedly stern facts of oar case, oan you do better in any possible event ? You prefer that the constitutional relation of the States to the nation, shall be practically restored without distuib ance of the institution; and, if this were done, my whole duty, in this respect, under the Constitution and my oath of office, would be performed. But it is not done, and we are trying to accomplish it by war. The incidents of the war cannot be avoided. Xf the war continues long, as it must if the object be not sooner Attained, the institution in your States will be extinguished by mere friction and abrasion —by the more incidents of the war. It will be gone, and you will have nothing valuable in lieu of it.— Much of its value is gone already. How much bet ter for you and for your people to take the step which at once shortens the war, and secures substan tial compensation for that which is sure to be wholly lost in any other event 1 How much hotter to thus save the money which else we sink forever in the war! How much better to do it while we cau, lest the war ere long render us pecuniarily unable to do it! How much better lor you, as seller, and the nation as buyer, to sell out and buy out that without which the war could never have been, than to Bink both the thing to be sold and the price of it, in cutting one another’s, throats! ■.Suggests Colonization, in South America. X do not speak of emancipation at once, but of a decision at once to emancipate gradually. Hoorn in South America for colonization can be obtained cheaply and in abundance, and when numbers shall bo large enough to be company and encouragement for one another, the freed people will not be so reluc tant to go. Deprecates the Abolition “ Pressure ” Thinks thr Border States can lielieve Him. I am pressed with a difficulty not yet mentioned —one which threatens division among those who, united, are none too strong. An instance of it is known to you. Gen. Hunter is an honest man. He was, and 1 hope still is, my friend. I valued him none the less for his agreeing with me in the general wish that all men everywhere could be freed. He proclaimed all men free within certain States, and X repudiated the proclamation, lie expected more good and less harm from the measure than I could believe would follow. Yet, in repudiating it, X gave dissatisfaction, if not offence, to many whose sup port the country cannot afford to lose. And this is not the end of it. The pressure in this direction is still upon me and is increasing. By conceding what X now ask-you can relieve me, and, much more, can relieve the oountry in this important point. A Final Appeal. Upon these considerations I have again begged your attention to the message of March lost. Before leaving the Capitol, consider and discuss it among yourselves. You are patriots and statesmen, and as suoh X pray you consider this proposition; and at least commend it to the consideration of your States and people. As you would perpetuate popular gov ernment for the best people in the world, X beseech you that you do in no wise omit this. Our common country is in great peril, demanding the loftiest views and boldest action to bring a speedy relief. — Once relieved, its form of government is saved to the world; its beloved history and cherished memories are vindicated, and its happy future fully assured and rendered inconceivably grand. To you, more than to any others, the-privilege is given to assure that happiness and swell that grandeur, and to link your names therewith forever. BEPLY OP THE HAJOBITY. The following paper was on the 17th inst., sent to the President, signed by the majority of the rep resentatives tf from the border slaveholding States. — [Messrs. Noel, Casey, Pisher, Clement, Brown, Blair and Willey signed a minority report, agreeing to the President’s report, and Mr. Maynard of Tenn., signed a separate report to the same effect :J Washington, July 14, 1562. TO THE PRESIDENT The undersigned, representatives of Kentucky, Virginia, Missouri, and Maryland, in the two Houses of Congress, have listened to your address with the profound sensibility naturally inspired by the high souroe from which it emanates, the earnest ness which marked its delivery, and the overwhelm ing importance of the subject of which it treats. — "We have given it a most respectful consideration, and now lay before you our response. We regret that want of time has not permitted us to make it more perfect. We have not been wanting, Mr. President, in re speot to you, and a devotion to the Constitution and the Union. We have not been indifferent to the great difficulties surrounding you, compared with which all former national troubles have been but as the summer cloud; and we have freely given you our sympathy and support. Repudiating the dan gerous heresies of the secessionists, we believed, with you, that the war on their part is aggressive and wicked, and the objects for which it was to be prose cuted on ours, defined by your message at the open ing of the present Congress, to be such as all good men should approve, we have not hesitated to vote all supplies necessary to carry it on vigorously. We have voted all the men and money you have asked for, and even more; we have imposed onerous taxes on our people,' and they are paying them with cheer fulness and alacrity; we have encouraged enlist ments and sent to the field many of our best men ; and some of our number have offered their persons to the enemy as pledges of their sincerity and devo tion to country. We have done all this under the most discouraging circumstances, and in the face of measures most distasteful to us and injurious to the interests we represent, and in the hearing of doo trines, avowed by those who claim to be your frieud3, most abhorrent to us and our constituents. But, tor all this, we have never faltered, nor shall we as loDg as we have a Constitution to defend and a Govern ment which protects ns. And we are ready for re newed efforts, and even greater sacrifices, yea, any sacrifice, when we are satisfied it is required to pre serve our admirable form of government and the priceless blessings of constitutional liberty. A few of our number voted for the resolutions recommended by your message of the 6th of March last, the greater portion of us did not, and wo will briefly state the prominent reasons which influenced our action. In the first place, it proposed a radical change of .our sooial system, and was hurried through both houses with undue haste, without reasonable time for consideration and debate, and with no time at all for consultation with our constituents, whose in terests it deeply involved. It seemed like an inter ference by this government with a question which peculiarly and exclusively belonged to our respective Stateß, on which they had not sought advice or solic ited aid. Many of us doubted the constitutional power of this government to make appropriations of money for the object designated, and all of us thought our finances were in no condition to bear the immense outlay whioh its adoption and faithful execution would impose upon the national treasury. If we pause but a moment to think of the debt its acceptance would have entailed, we are appalled by its magnitude. The proposition was addressed to all the States, and embraced the whole number of slaves. According to the census of 1860 there were then very nearly four million slaves in the country; from natural inorease they exoeed that number now. At even the low average of three hundred dollars, the price fixed by the emancipation aot for the slaves in this District, and greatly below their real, worth, their value runs up to the enormous sum of twelve hundred millions of dollars, and if to that we add the cost of deportation and colonization at one hundred dollars each, which is but a fraction ! more than is actually paid by the Maryland Colon ization Society, we have four hundred millions more. We were not willing to impose a tax on our people sufficient to pay the interest on that sum, in addition to the vast and daily increasing debt already fixed upon them bythe exigencies of the war, and, if we had been willing, the country could not bear it.— Stated in this form the proposition is nothing lesß than the deportation from the country of sixteen hundred million dollars' worth of producing labor, and the substitution in its plaoe of an interest bearing debt of the same amonnt. But if we are told that it was expected that only the States we represent wouldaccept the proposition, . wo respectfully submit that even then it involves a ; sum too great for the financial ability of this gov ernment at this. time. According to the census ...... -1.-’- i _ . - 225,490 - ' - - ' - 87,188 _ - 490,887 _ - . - - - - 1,798 - - - - - -v 114,965 ------ 275,784 'States.

Again, it seemed to us that this resolution was but the annunciation of a sentiment which could not or was not likely to be reduced to an actual, tangible proposition. No movement was then- made to pro vide and appropriate the funds required to carry it into effeot; and we were not encouraged to believe that funds would be provided. And our belief has been fully justified by subsequent events. Not to mention other circumstances, it is quite sufiioUnt for our purpose to bring to your .notice the fact that, while this resolution was under consideration in the Senate, our colleague, the Senator from Kentucky, moved an amendment appropriating $500,000 to the object therein designated, and it was voted down with great unanimity. W hat confidence, then, could we reasonably feel that, if we committed ourselves, to the policy it proposed, our constituents would reap the fruits of the promise heid out; and on what ground could we, as fair men, approach them and challenge their support? The nght-to hold slaves is a right appertaining to all the States of this Union. They have the right to oherish or abolish the institution as their tastes or ; their interests may prompt, and no one is authorized to question the right or limit its enjoyment. And no one has more clearly affirmed that right than you have. Your inaugural address does you great honor in this respect, and inspired the country with confi dence in your fairness and respect for the law. Our States are in the enjoyment of that right. We do not feel called on to defend the institution, or to affirm it is one which ought to be cherished. Per haps, if we were to make the attempt, we might find that we differ even among ourselves. It is enough for our purpose to know that it is a right j and, so knowing, we did not see why we should now be ex pected toyieldit. Wehaddontributodour full share to relieve the country at this terrible crisis; we had done as much as had been required of others, in like circumstanoes; and we did not see why sacrifices should be expected of us from which others, no more loyal, were exempt. Nor could we see what good the nation would derive from it. Such a sacrifice submitted to by us would not have strengthened the arm of this government, or weakened that of the enemy. It was not necessary as a pledge of our loyalty, for that had beeu manifested beyond a ' reasonable doubt, in every form, and at every place possible. There was not the remotest probability that the States we represent would join in the rebel lion, nor is there now; or of their electing to go with the Southern section in the event of a recognition of the independence of any part of the dis&ifected region. Our States are fixed unalterably in their resolution to adhere to and support the Union ; they see no safety for themselves and no hope for consti tutional liberty but by its preservation. They will under no circumstances consent to its dissolution, and we do them no more than justice when we assure you that while the war is conducted to prevent that ' terrible catastrophe, they will sustain it as long as they can muster a man or command a dollar. Nor will they ever consent, in any event, to unite with the Southern Confederacy. The bitter fruits of the peculiar doctrines of that rogion will forever prevent them from placing their security and happiness in the custody of an association which has incorporated ; in its organic law the seeds of its own destruction. We cannot admit, Mr. President, that if we had yoted for the resolution in the emancipation, message I of March lust the war would uow be substantially I ended. We are unable to see how our action in this ' particular has given, or could give encouragement Lo the rebellion. The resolution has passed, and if there be virtue in it, it will be quite as efficaoious as if we had voted for it. We had no power to bind our States in this respeot by our votes here; and whether we had voted the one way or the other, they ore in the same condition of freedom to accept or re ject its provisions. No, sir; the war has not been prolonged or hindered by our action on this or any other measure. We must look for otheT causes for that lamented fact. We think there is not much difficulty, not much uncertainty, in pointing out others far more probable and potent in their agencies to that end. The rebellion derives its strength from the union of all olasses in the insurgent States ; and while that union lasts the war will never end until they are utterly exhausted. We know that at the inception of these troables Southern society was divided, and that a large po’rtion, perhaps a majority, were op posed to secession. Now the great mass of Southern people are united. To discover why they are so, we must glance at Southern society, and notice the classes into which it has been divided, and which still distinguish it. They are in arms, but not for the samo objects; they are moved to a common end, but by different and even inconsistent reasons: The loaders, which comprehends what was previously known as the State rights party, and is much the lesser class, seek to break down national indepen- denco and set up State domination. With them it is a war against nationality. The other class is fighting, as it supposes, to maintain and preserve its rights of property and domestic safety, which it has been made to believe are assailed by this govern ment. This latter class are not disuuionists per se ; they are so only because they have been made to be lieve that this administration is inimioal to their rights, and is making war on their domestic institu tions. As long as these two classes act together they will never assent to a peace. The policy, then, to be pursued is obvious. The former class will never be reconciled, but the latter may be. Remove their apprehensions; satisfy them that no harm is intend ed to them and their institutions ; that this govern ment is not making war on their rights of property, but is simply defending its legitimate authority, and they will gladly return to their allegiance as soon as the pressure of military dominion imposed by the Confederate authority is removed from them. Twelve months ago both Houses of Congress, adopting tho spirit of your message, then but recent ly sent in, declared with singular unanimity the objects of tho war, and the country instantly bound ed to your side to assist you in carrying it on. If the spirit of that resolution had been adhered to we are confident that we should before now have seen the end of this deplorable conflict. But what have we seen ? In both Houses of Congress we have heard doctrines subversive of the princioles of the Constitution, and seen measure after measure founded in substance on these doctrines, proposed and oarried through which can havo ho other effect than to distract and divide loyal men, and exasper ate and drive still further from us and their duty the people of the rebellious States. Military officers, following these bad examples, have stepped beyond the just limits of their authority in the same direc tion until in several instances you have felt the necessity of interfering to arrest them. And even the passage of the resolution to which you refer has been ostentatiously proclaimed as the triumph of a principle which the people of the Southern States regard as ruinous to them. The effect of the meas ures was foretold, and may now be seen in the indurated state of Southern feoling. To these causes, Mr. President, and not to our omission to vote for the resolution recommended by you, we solemly believe we are to attribute the ter rible earnestness of those in arms against the Gov ernment, and the continuance of the war. Nor do we (permit us to say, Mr. President, with all respect for you) agree that the institution of slavery is “ the lever of their power; ’ ’ but we are of the opinion that “ the lever of their power ” is the apprehension that the powers of a common government, created for common and equal protection to the interests of ail, will be wielded against the institutions of tho (South ern States. There is one other idea in your address we feel called on to notice. After stating the fact of your repudiation of General Hunter’s proclamation, you add : Yet, in repudiating it, I gave dissatisfaction, if not offence, to many whose support the country can not afford to lose. And this is not the end of it. The pressure in this direction is still upon mo and in creasing. By conceding what I now ask you can re lievo me, and, much more, can relieve the country in this important point. We have anxiously looked into this passage to discover its true import, but we are yet in painful uncertainty. How can we, by conceding what you now ask, relieve you and the country from the in creasing pressure to which you refer? We will not allow ourselves to think that the proposition is, that we consent to give up slavery, to the end that the Hunter proclamation may be let loose on the Southern people for it is too well known that we would not be parties to any such measure, and wo have too much respect for you to imagine you would propose it. Can it moan that, by sacrificing our'interest in slavery, we appease the spirit that controls the pres sure, cause it to be withdrawn, and rid the country of the pestilent agitation of the slavery question? We are forbidden so to think, for that spirit would not be satisfied with the liberation of seven hundred thousand slaved, and cease its agitation, while three millions remain in bondage. Can it mean that, by abandoning slavery in our States, we are removing the pressure from you and the country, by preparing for a separation on the line of the Cotton States ? We are forbidden so to think, because it is known that we are, and we believe that you are, unalterably opposed to any division at all. We would prefer to think that you desire this concession as a pledge of our support, and thus enable you to withstand a pressure which weighs heavily on you and the country. Mr. President, no such sacrifice is neces- 1 sary to secure our support. Confine yourself to your constitutional authority; confine your subordinates 1 within the same limits; conduct this war solely for 1 the purpose of restoring the Constitution to its legi- | timate authority, concede to each State and its loyal I citizens, their just rights and wo are wedded to i you by indissoluble ties. Do this, Mr. President, and I you touch the American heart and invigorate it with new hope. You will, as we sincerely believe, in due time restore peaoe to your country ; lift it from despondency to a future of glory; and preserve to your countrymen, their posterity, and man, the in estimable treasure of constitutional government. Mr. President, we hare stated with frankness and candor the reasonß on which we forbore to vote for the resolution we have mentioned; but you have again presented this proposition, and appealed to us with an earnestness and eloquenoe which have not failed to impress us, to “ consider it, and at the least to commend it to the consideration of our States and people.” Thus appealed to by the Chief Magistrate ! of our beloved country, in the hour of its greatest peril, we cannot wholly deoline. We are willing to trust every question relating to their interest and happiness to the consideration and ultimate judg ment of our own people. While differing from you •as to the necessity of emancipating the slaves of our Sb £ tes as a means of putting down the rebellion, and while protesting against the propriety of any extra territorial interference to induce the people of our <t° adopt any. particular line of policy on a subject which peculiarly and exclusively belongs to them ; yet when you and our brethren of the loyal States sincerely believe that the retention of slavery by us is an obstacle to peace and national harmony, and are willing to contribute pecuniary aid to com pensate our States and people for the inconveniences produced by such a change of system, we are not unwilling that our people shall consider the pro priety of putting it aside. But we nave already said that we regarded thin resolution as the utterance of 'a Bentiment, and we had no confidence that it would assume the shape of the talti tf tin »mftii|atn&iOn |iopt« im Influenced by the rone mat of oonfUtame, and will, not consider the proposition in if* present impalpa ble form. 'The intenet they an to give up i* to them of immense importance, and they ought not to be expected even toentertein the propoealxmtil they are assured that when they accept it their just .expectations will not bafzustiated. we regard your plan as a proposition from the Nation to tee Nates to exercise an admitted constitutional right in a -particular manner and yield up a valuable interest. Before they ought to consider the proposition, it should be presented in sueh a tangible, practical, effioient shape as to eommand their confidence that its fruits are contingent only upon their acceptance. We cannot trust ’ anything to tee contingencies of future legislation. If Congrea, by proper and neces sary legislation, shall provide sufficient tends and place them at your disposal to be applied by you to the payment of any of our States or the citizens thereof who shall adopt the abolishment of slavery, either gradual or immediate, as they may determine, and the expense of deportation and colonisation of the liberated slaves, then will our States and people take this proposition into eareful consideration, for such decision as in their judgment Is demanded by their interest, their honor, nnd their duty to the whole country. We have the honor to be, with great respect, 0. A. WICKLIFFE, Chairman. - 1,196,112 - $358,833,600. - • 119,244,533 GARRET DAVIS, C. L. L- LEARY, R. WILSON, • EDWIN H. WEBSTER, J. J. CRITTENDEN, .R.

PISTOLS FOR THE CLERGY* The presentation of a pistol and other weapons of war to Parson Brownlow, at Hartford, has famished occasion to the Nan tucket Inquirer for some pertinent remarks on the impropriety of mixing np rifles with religion, and pistols with piety. We give below some extracts from the article of the Inquirer : The olergy, with some exceptions, have de scended from their high and apostolic mission to the arena of party politics. They have for gotten the mandate of taming “ the other cheek also " and been willing to accept the weapons Qf slaughter. They have taken the warring spirit of David and Saul and Joshna for their guide, rather than the meek and patient and forbearing example of John and James and Christ. In the political strifes in Judea bow would the great Master have re buked those who presented him with the weapons of worldly warfare. How would he have wept to have found those whom he had baptized in the waters of eternal life, and made ministers in his great and glorious work, leaving the higher things of their mission to dabble in the politics of CiEsar and his subordinates. How would he have turned aside from the noisy “ evening" conclave and wandered ead and sorrowful through the silent streets of Bethany, rather than appear in the midst of men who were clamoring for the blood of their brothers. Some of these ministers of the Gospel point to the sin of slavery as their excuse. Slavery existed eighteen hundred years ago. The edicts of Herod and Tiberius had opposers.then, but how strange would have been the sight to see a “ beloved disciple " flourishing, a string cf resolutions in a noisy assemblage of Jews and Gentiles, or Peter upon a public platform presenting a javelin to James or John or Barnabas or Matthew, and ibcy promising to “ put it through " any rebels to royal authority. Ministers of the Gospel at this day and time have broken down the barriers between the spiritual and the secular. The pulpit is bow ing down to the private and orude notions of parishioners, and he whose sacred duty it is to “ preach the word " and present the pre cious promises to .the people must Irina his sails to the popular gale, and seldom permit them to be filled with the celestial breezes and swell with the balmy airs of Paradise. Instead of preaching against all sins, they are prone to select one particular sin against which mere declamation is popular, and exhaust upon that all their logic, and polish all their eloquence, and sharpen all their invective until the hearers mix politics and polemics, revolu tions and religions, Judas and Jesus all in one confused babble, and are ready to present swords and pistols to pastor as well as people, and so commit a thousand sins in attempting to exorcise one. * That minister who stands fast by the oracles of God, who presents with all his heart those precepts of the Gospel most needed by the community, who opposes error and vice and sin as if his tongue were fired by a coal from off the Altar, who declares the whole counsel of God, who leaves “unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s," who stands as a light and a guide to wanderers from the way of peace, may think himself fortunate if some eilly dea con does not call together the weak and tender lambs of his church or society to demand of their pastor “to define hie position." Even now the mob dictates the prayers of the church. We can almost say &b goes the mob so goes the minister. It is high time that ministers of the Gospel kept off of platforms. It is high time that the day of pistol giving and pistol receiving among clergymen pastors, if there are any, turned their swords into plough shares, and their spears into pruning hooks, and devoted their best energies to beautifying the waste places of their earthly Zion, and‘to cultivating more carefully those tender flowers that may be made to bloom eventually on the borders of the Better Land. Horrible Tragedy —A Woman Murders Her Seven Children and then Cuts Her Own Throat. —Tho Quebec (C. E.) Chronicle , of the 22nd ult, gives the following account of a terrible tragedy in that city: We learned last night, from a gentleman from Arthabaskaville, that a shocking tra gedy had oocurred in the township of Stan ford, about'three miles from the station, some time yesterday morning. A woman named M’dme Bourret, who haß manifested symp toms of insanity years ago, and before her marriage, and whose husband is now in the United States, murdered her seven children, and then cut her own throat. It appears that on Sunday night there was a veillee at her house, and the thiDg must have occurred between the departure of the guests and morning, for a at on early hour yesterday morning, M’dme Bourret’s daughter, who bad been at the veillee, but resided at St. Ferbert, called at her mother’s to see her. Finding the door closed, she looked in through the window, and was then shocked to see eight corpses—those of her mother, her brothers and sisters, The eldest of the mur dered children, a girl fourteen years of age, seems to have had a desperate struggle for her life, for the bodies of mother and 1 daughter were lyiDg close together, and the mother had several wounds on her arm, apparently inflicted by an axe that was also close to the bodies. The daughter’s throat and arm were cut, evidently with a razor, which the rigid fingers of the mother still tightly grasped when the tragedy was discovered by the surviving daughter. All the doors and win dows were found barred on the inside, thus of course leading to the conclusion that the dreadful deed had been oommitted by some one inside. Leslie Coombs’ View of It. —Leslie Coombs, of Kentucky, is a man whose devotion to the Union has at no time been questioned. He has labored unremittingly against disunion ism and secessionism. Under date of May 19, 18G2, he wrote a letter to R- Graves, Esq., of New York city, in which he says : “We have thirty thousand gallant volun teers in the field, ready to die in the cause, and yet the ultra legislation now being pressed by the Abolition traitors in Congress is doing us infinite mischief, and putting us in political and personal jeopardy in our approaching August election. We feel ourselves in much greater danger From tho hands of secretly organized and armed traitors in our midst— stimulated by the intemperate Abo’iitionißts in Congress—than we do from their public armies.” Paper Currency. —The Boston Trave\er opposes the further inorease of paper money, and illustrates the comparative value of the Back of England notes and U. S. legal tender notes, thus:—“ Bank of England notes are bought in New York by brokers at $5,50, in specie paying times their price here was $4,70. In plain terms, a British merchant can send Bank of England notes, hot gold, into New York, exchange them for our legal tender notes, and then buy American flour by this exchange at $4,25, that the people of New York who consume it here are compelled, to pay $5 for.” l] 43” Employment I riTg i AGENTS WANTED!

The Mill may be driven by horse, water or steam power, does its work as well as thefiat stone mills in milling establish ments, and requires but one-half the power to drive the largest rizoa. They are very compact, perfectly simple, and for farm use will last Thirty Years, and cost nothing for repairs. ' PRICES—SIOO, $l4O and $l7O. Hour Bolt for smallest Mill $5O extra. THE HORSE POWER has proved itself to be the beet ever invented. The friction is reduced by IRON BALLS, so arranged lu all the bear* ings, that the whole weight of the castings runs upon them. THREE POUNDS DRAUGHT, at the end of a ten feet lever, will keep the power in motion f thus permitting the entire strength of the horses to be need on the machine to be driven. One horse will do as much work on this power as two on thoendless Chain Power. Itis port* able and may bo used in the field as well as in the house. More than Twenty*Five Per Cent, of horse flesh is saved over any other power in use. It Is simple in construction, and not liable to get out of order. Price of power for 1 to 4 borses $125 Price of power for 1 to 8 horses $175 THE $125 POWER WILL DRIVE ANY THRESHING MACHINE. EVERY MACHINE 18 GUARANTEED TO GIVE SATIS FACTION, OR THE MONEY WILL BE REFUNDED. REFERENCES. Wm. Leaf, R. R. Supt. Philadelphia, Petrna. J. P. Post, Patterson, N. J. E. F. Condit, Chatham, “ N. H.

These Dangerous and Troublesome Disease* which havt thus far Resisted the best dfryM TreaimenL can' be Completely Controlled by the REMEDY now before nil THE CURATIVE properties of the medicine direct themselves to ths organs of secretion, and by so altering the oondltloaof the and liver that toe starchy prlndple of the food Is not con* verted Into sugar so long as the system Is under the influ* enee of the LON WATER, which gives those organs time to reoover their healthy tone and vigor. We are able to state that the Constitution Water has cured every case of Diabetes In which it has been given. STOKE IN THE BLADDER, CALCULUS, GRAVEL, BRICE DUST DEPOSIT, AND MUOOUB OR MILKY DISCHARGES APTER URINATING. Disease occurring from one and.toe same cause will be entirely cured by the Constitution Water, if tairan for any length of time. The dose should vary with the severity of the disease, from twenty drops to a teaspoonftil three times a day, In water. During the passage of the Calculus, the pain and urgent symptoms should be oombated with the proper remedies, then followed up with the Constitu tion Water, as above directed. DYSMENORRHEA, OR PAINFUL MENSTRUA TION, AND IN MENORRHAGIA OR PBOFUSEFLOWING, Both diseases arising from a faulty secretion of the men* strual fluid—La the one ease being too little, and aeoom* panled by severe pain; and the other a too profuse secre* tion, which will be speedily cured by the Constitution Water. That disease known as PALLING OP THE WOMB, which is the result of a relaxation of toe ligaments of that organ, and is known by a sense of heaviness and dragging pains in the back and sides, and at times accompanied by sharp lacinating or shooting pains through the parts, will, in aU cases, be removed by the medicine. There is another class of symptoms arising from IRRI TATION OF THE'WOMB, which, physicians call Nervous ness, which word covers up much ignoranoe, and in nine cases out of ten the doctor does not really know whether the symptoms are the disease, or the dilate the symptoms. We can only enumerate them here. -1 speak more par* tlcularly of Oold Feet, Palpitation of the Heart, Impaired Memory, Wakefulness, Plashes of Heat, Languor, Lassi tude, and Dimness of Vision. * SUPPRESSED MENSTRUATION, Which in the unmarried female is a constant recurring disease, and through neglect the seeds of more grave ana dangerous maladies are the result; and as month after month passes without an effort being made to assist nature, the suppression becomes chronic,the patient gradu* ally loses her appetite, the bowels are constipated, night sweats come on, and consumption finally ends her career. LEUCORRHCEA OR WHITES. This disease depends upon an inflammation of mucous lining of the vagina and womb. It is in all cases accom panied by severe pain in the back, across the bowels and through the hips. A.teaspoonful of the medicine may be taken three times a day, with an Injection of a tablespoon* ful of the- medicine, mixed with a half-pint of soft water, morning and evening. IRRITATION OP THE NECK OP THE BLADDER, INFLAMMATION OF THE KIDNEYS, AND - CATARRH OF THE BLADDER, STRAN GURY AND BURNING, OR PAIN FUL URINATING. For these diseases it is trnly a sovereign remedy, and too much cannot bo said in its praise. A single dose has been known to relieve the most urgent symptom a. Are yon troubled with that distressing pain In toe small of the back and through the hips? A teaspoonful a day of Constitution Water will relieve you like magic. FOR DYSPEPSIA, it has noequal in relieving the most distressing symptoms. Also, Headache, Heartburn, Acid Stomach, Vomiting Food, Ac. Take a teaspoonful after dinner. The dose in all cases may be increased if desired, bat should be done gradually. PHYSICIANS have long since given up the use of buchn, cubebs, and juniper in the treatment of these diseases, and only use them for want of a better remedy. CONSTITUTION WATER has proved itself equal to the task that has devolved upon it. DIURETICS Irritate and drench the kidneys, and by constant use soon lead to chronic degeneration and confirmed dieeMe- READ! READ!! READ!!! Danville, Pa., June 2,1802. _ Dr. Wm. H. Geegci —Dear Sir: In February, 1801,1 was efilleted with the sngar diabetes, and for five months I passed more than two gallons of water in twenty-four hours. " I was obliged to get up as often as ten or twelve times during the night, and in five months I lost about fifty pounds in weight. During the mouth of July, .1801, I procured two bottles of Constitution Water, and In two days after using It I experienced relief, and after taking two bottles I was entirely cured, soon after regaining my usual good health. Yours truly, J. Y. L. DE WITT. Boston Corners, N. Y., Dec. 27, 1801. Wm. H. Greqq & Co.: Gents: I freely give yon liberty to make use of the fol lowing Certificate of the value of Constitution Water, which I can recommend in the highest manner. My wife, who was attacked with pain in the shoulders, whole length of the back, and in her limbs, with Ralpita tion of the Heart, attended „with Falling of the Womb, Dysmenorrhea, and Irritation of the Bladder: I called a physician, who attended her about three months,,when he left her worse than he found her. I then employed one of the best physicians I could find, who attended her abou t nine months, and while she was under his care she did not suffer quite as much pain; he finally gave her up and said, “ her case was incurable.” For, said he, “ she nas such a combination of complaints, that medicioe given for one operates against some other of her difficulties.” About this time, she commenced to use the Constitution Water, and to our utter astonishment, almost the first dose seemed to have the desired effect, and she kept on improving rapidly under its treatment, and now superintends entirely her domestic affairs. She has not taken any of the Constitu tion Water for about four weeks, and we are happy to say that it has produced a permanent cure. ... WM. M. VAN BENSOHOTEN. Milford, Cohn., Not. 19, 1861. Da. Wm. n. Gregq Dear Sir: I have for several years, been afflicted with that troublesome and dangerous disease—Gravel—which resisted all remedies and.doctors, until I took Constitution Water, and yon may be assured that I was exceedingly pleased with the result. It has entirely cared me, and you may make any use of my name yon may see fit in regard to tbo medicine, as I have entire confidence in its efficacy. Yours truly, . POND STRONG. THESE ARE FACTS ENOUGH. There is no class of diseases that produces such exhaust ing effects upon the human constitution as Diabetes and Diseases of the Kidnoys, Bladder and Urinary Passages, and through a false modesty they are neglected until th§y are so advanced as to be beyond the control of ordinary remedies, and we present the CONSTITUTION WATER to the public with the conviction that it has no equal in relieving the class of diseases for which it has been found so eminently successful in curing; and we trust that we shall be rewarded for onr efforts in placing bo valuable-a remedy in a form to meet the requirements of patient and physician. •> ’ FOR SALE BY ALL DRUGGISTS, PRICE $L WM.
