The origin of this disease is not eorained to the iunCv,as
many siemens euppose. In many caves the disease origi
nates in the liver or stomach. Many medical writers have
declared that dyspepsia or indigestion is one of the meet
frequent causes of pulmonary disease. Dr, iii.Schenek.
of. Philadelphia, whote exclusive attention to con...utile,
live caeca for the last thirty•five years has made him the
tonehly acquainted with- the peculiarities of this fatal.
Malady, certifies that dyspepsia is really a very common
forerunner of consumption, and that it tends directly to
the formation of tubercles in the limes. In view of this
:fact, Dr Schenck, in the treatment of consump
tive cases., when indigestion is one of
the prominent symptoms, prescribes his Sea-
weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills (an infallible cure for
dyspepsia). to be used in connection with reheaelCa Pei
nicuic Syrup, and be finds that this combination of reme
dies greatly facilitates the cure. The evidences of Dr.
Sehenelt's success. axe very numerous. Some coneume.

ANERI MOTOR' &LS.
A weekly pictorial newspaper that under
'takes to keep up with these times, has no
easy task. Competition permits no delay,
and the traveling artist must sketch and the
engraver must cut with breathless speed, lest
some rival.paper shall anticipate by a - whole
week the illustrations of events which will
become stale in the public mind between the
publications of two successive numbers.
There is therefore much allowance to be
made for defective drawings and imperfect'
likenesses, and fertile imagination forced to
supply the absence of accurate situations and
effects.
But after all due allowances have been
made, what shall be said of the condition of
American art, as exhibited in all the pictorial
periodicals? The field for the exercise of a
high order of talent in this direction is a very
wide one, but there is nowhere any indica
tion of improvement. Take, for example,
the opportunities offered by' the Impeach
ment Trial, and there has not yet appeared in
any paper a single illustration that is not a
grotesque caricature of the scenes of that im
posing event. Chief Justice Chase, the
Managers, the President's counsel, the Sena•
tors and many of the Repreventatives, are
among the leading men of America. Their
personal appearance is familiar to thousands
in this country, but if those who do not know
them, here or abroad; are to form their ideal
of American lawyers and statesmen, from the
representations which the pictorial papers
give of them, our public men will fall very
low indeed in general estimation. General
Butler, for instance, is not a handsome man,
but he is not the abject idiot that the artists
make him. General Logan is usually repre
sented as a huge, moustache with a
small man behind it. Mr. Manager
Wilson is more kindly dealt with, and
usually presents the back of his head to the
spectator. Messrs. Stevens and Bingham can
sometimes be guessed at,but not always. The
choice is precisely that offered by the famous
showman, "vichever you like, my dear you
pays yer money and takes yer choice." The fine
stateliness of the Chief Justice is dwindled
away to an insignificant person, with a bald
head, which is supposed to be the distinguish
ing feature of Mr. Chase. Here and there
the keen critic can detect in those pictorial
groups a head which he recognizes as faintly
ongeesting some prominent man; but ordinarily
the eye roams wearily over a wilderness of
-"dummies," without form or character, or
any trace of the slightest reference either to
accuracy of likeness, or the requirements of
art.
Comparing these garbled productions with
the elegant engravings of the French, English
and Gernaaii illustrated papers, there is a
most humiliating sense of inferiority in the
American workmanship., And the worst of
it that there is no improvement: The
standard is, if anything, lower than it was a
few years ago. The "Police Gazettes" and
other indecent papers, that deluge the country
with their vile illustrations of crime, seem to
have dragged the other papers down to their
own standard, so far as their pictorial feature
is concerned. We refer to the subject by way
of urging upon American publishers the ad
vantage and necessity of doing something
better for the cause of American art. If they
will employ only the best artists, there will
soon be more good artists to employ, and if
they will approximate to the elegance and
excellence of the foreign illustrated journals,
they will find that they are• continually in
creasing the numbers of that class in this
country which appreciates and patronizes
'whatever is really good.
OVIL COUNTRY PIASTERS.
Are are nearly two centuries that Phila
delphia has been in existence as a city, insuffi
cient to give her a right to claim her majori
ty and the power to manage her own affairs
in her own way ? Or do our rural masters at
Harrisburg imagine that she has grown into
her dotage and that her affairs must be placed
in the hands of trustees from the interior ? A
few days ago, Senator Lowry, who comes
from an extreme section of the State, lec
tured our local judiciary and insulted our
people without the slightest justification for
the outrage. Not very long since we were
ordered by the fepresentatives of counties on
Lake Erie and the borders of Virginia and
Ohio to build a bridge over the
Schuylkill which we did not need,
and which was only useful to the
greedy city railway corporation that
.was procuring special legislation at the cost
of the city treasury. Railway tracks have
been run through streets where they were
not wanted, 'and the city has been compelled
4 So stand idly , cuid helplessly by, while men,
armed with the authorityof a legislative en
actment, took possessibn of the. public tho
roughfares and did as they pleased with them,
without regard to the public, wants or the
public wishes. In fact, this special inter
meddling in affairs which concern the city
alone is incessant, and the people of Phila
delphia are kept in a constant fever of appre
hension from the time the Legislature meets
until the hour of.,..jts adjournment. Yester
day, the House reused to allow Philadelphia
to pay the judges of the district courts 'an
additional anntial stipend, an act that was as
unreasonable and as arbitrary as it would be
for City Councils to forbid a merchant
to increase the salary of a faithful and valued
clerk. -
But the most wanton defiance of the wishes
of the people of the city and the most em
phatic exhibition of an arbitrary disregard to
all considerations of fair play and common
courtesy, was in the action of the House in
regard to the relinquishment of "eminent do
main" in the Penn Squares,so as to enable the
city to apply them to the use of scientific and
literary institutions, in accordance with the
plans of the founder of the State. There may
have been honest differences of opinion as to
whether the majority of the people of the city
. were in favor of this appropriation of the
property in question, although they had
spoken very emphatically through their con
stituted authorities. But Mr. Bull, of this
city, proposed an amendment which dis
armed this objection. It was to the effect
that the control of the property should be
given into the hands of the city, but that
no grant of it for building purposes
should be made until March let, 1869.
This amendment would have enabled citizens
to express their opinion at the ballot-box, if
they dissented from the proposed use of tue
inclosures. This reasonable proposition was
voted down and our country masters voted
solid against the bill on the taking of the final
question. There can be no further action
upon the subject for another year, and the
representatives of the counties where coal,
petroleum, iron, potatoes, corn and wheat
are better understood thaw books, philosophy
or natural sciences, have thus settled for us
a questim of purely local concern.
There are families in which the needy mem
bers entertain feelings of dislike and jealousy
towards those of their number who are more
prosperous than themselves, but who are,
nevertheless, willing to tax the fortunate ones
for their own support, and who put upon
them the lion's share of the family burdens.
Philadelphia is in this precise predicament:
she pays every large proportion of the taxa
tion of the State, • is •made the `•strong ass"
in bearing the public burdens, and she is syste
matically crossed, annoyed and snubbed by
legislators who vote against everything she
desires to accomplish, and apparently for the
gratification of an unworthy feeling of small
spite, envy and hatred.
REGISTRATION OF VOTERS
At every stage of the progress of. the Gen
eral Registry law in the State Legislature, it
was opposed by all the so-called Democratic
members. It has also been bitterly con
demned by every Democratic newspaper,and
yet it is as fair to one party as to another. It
provides that the canvassers of each election
division shall not be of the same political
party, and it affords legal voters every facility
for securing their privilege. It imposes se
vere regulations against illegal voting; but
these apply to the men of one party as well
as to those of another. All who wish the
laws to be observed and illegal voting pre-,
vented, must, if they are candid, give their
hearty approval to the new measure. Prop
erly and fairly executed, the new Registry
Law will secure a more honest vote at future
elections than we have ever had before in
Pennsylvania.
When the attorneys for the defence resort
to quibbles and petty objections in ordinary
trials before courts of justice, it is always
esteemed a sign of weakness. Mr. Johnson's
counsel exhibited these signs of doubt and
timidity during the progress of the impeach
ment trial yesterday. The phonographic re
porters who took down the celebrated scurri
lous Cleveland speech, and the scarcely less
scandalous Washington speech to the Wig
wammers, were upon the witness stead.
Every intelligent person knows that phono
graphy is as clear a medium of communi
cating words and ideas as the common
English alphabet and the words formed
therefrom are. There is not one of
the President's counsel who has not had his
speeches reported through its agency, and
doubtless each of them has perused, with
feelings of mingled delight and wonder,
the faithful way in which their
rounded periods have been transferred
to paper by the nimble fingers of the skillful
reporter. Yesterday they suddenly became
skeptical as to the correctness of the pub
lished reports of the President's speeches and
they quibbled over them with the zeal of
a Quarter Sessions lawyer. But quibbling
availed them nothing ; the evidence of the
reporters was received and every person pre
sent was satisfied of its truthfulness. It turned
out, however that the Wigwam speech was
" doctored " for the Associated Press by
the President's private Secretary. Mr.
Butler is proving himself far more than a
match for Mr. Everts and his associates,. and
the latter have "come off second best" in all
the professional bouts which they have had
together during the progress of the trial.
Calling bad names amounts to nothing now,
and the old familiar weapons of "Beast"
and ‘‘ Brute " have to be cast aside.
As the almanacs would say ; "about this
time look for a stir in business." The dis
appearance of winter and its melan
choly traces; the coming in of Spring; the
necessity for meeting the wants of the chang
ing season in respect to clothing; and the
commencement of active building operations
will give a renewed impetus to trade, and The
gloom and depression of a long, severe and
tedious winter will be succeeded by cheerful
prosperity that will be in keeping with the
brightness of the vernal season. In the
meantime. the Senate will conclude the trial
of Andrew Johnson, and his deposition will
bring peace and quiet• to the country, and
tend to the promotion of general con
fidence and prosperity. While' the ad
vancing season will give fresh vigor to Was-

try, it will tend to the reduction of the hi !:ri
prices demanded for every description of'
food. The growing grass will bring down
the price of butcher's meat, butter and eggs;
the markets will soon be filled with the boun
tiful products of gardens and fields; the,
streams, which have been cleared of their icy
letters, will freely yield their scaly treasures,
and the happy change will be felt all who
have dependant mouths to feed. We believe
that there is but one substantial obstacle in
the way of the present happiness and pros
perity of the American people. Whether or
not this obstacle is an insurmountable one is,
a problem that is now occupying the atten
tion of the Senate of the United States sitting
as a High Court of Impeachment.
Some of the pictures of border State life
that are drawn with so much effect by Mr.
P. V. Nasby, are thought to be gross exag
gerations. The Revereed Petroleum's
sketches are certainly broad and strong; but
changing the spelling of the words in the fol
lowing paragrapll which appears in the Mem
phis Post of the 26th ult., and substituting
for the names mentioned, the appelatious of
some of the playful inhabitants of the "Con
fedrit X Reads," we have truth made
fully as strange as fiction, however broad and
strong the latter may be. Says the Post:
"A short time since a young man named Crew,
living in.Williarnson county, rode up to the little
village of Bethesda, near what is known as the
Ridge Meeting House. He appears to have been
in a sportive mood, and attempted to ride over a
group of colored men who were standing in front
of one of the houses. After chasing one of them in
to an adjoining lot, he turned upon another, who
caught his horse by the bridle, 'remarking, `You
can't run over me.' Crow drew his pistol. and
cocked it in the face of the colored man, who, to
escape, sprang behind the horse, whereupon the
young desperado wheeled and shot him dead. A
coroner's jury was summoned, an inquest held
upon the remains ef the murdered man, aud a
verdict of accidental shooting rendered. The ne
gro was a carpenter, a peaceable, hard-working
man, who was universally respected by his race
for his excellent qualities.'
Mr. Nasby never drew a picture of a play
ful citizen of "the Roads" that exceeded in
breadth of coloring the portrait of this
"sportive" young Crow, and the genial
amiability of the coroner's jury that "sat
upon the body" of the victim of Mr. Crow's
sportiveness, could not have been exceeded if
it bad been made up of the regular frequenters
of Deacon Pogram's Grocery.
Mr. Badly, the sculptor, has completed the or
naments designed for the tomb of Captain Thos•
P. James, First City Troop, who died hero in
1861, in the position of Colonel of the t'2d regi
ment, Ninth Cavalry, Pennsylvania Volun
teers. The monument is already erected by
Mr.Strutbers at South Laurel 11111, and the decor
ionshaving been cast in bronze at the foundry of
Messrs. Wood tt Co., are now waiting to be at_
tached. The design includes two' pieces of bronze:
the uppermost is a simple, but very perfect repre
sentation cf the helmet of a Captain of horse,
viewed in profile, with the plume and flexible
chin-strap most naturally executed. This will be
attached to the- cap-atone of the monument-
Below, upon the die, will be placed
a group composed of the cavalry jacket
and accoutrements; it forms - a fragment of
intricate casting in one piece of four feet in
height, carefully imitated from the actual relics
left by the deceased, and modeled with a delicacy
that is at first illusive. The drapery of the coat,
with its embroidery and epaulettes, adds, by its
flowing lines, a grace to the composition, and
covers as a centre-piece the extremities of the
arms that compose the group. The gloves rest
upon the pistol, as if the manly hand were still,
within them; the sword and belt, the cartridge
box and sash appear around, while the sabre
tash trails beneath the trophy, with the legend
"Trenton, Princeton, F. .T. P. C. C., 177 a,"
worked upon the pouch.
Few artists could have assembled with more
readiness and taste than have been shown by Mr.
Bailly, a mass of stubborn and intractable acces
sories like those which meet in this composition.
The casting' is flawless. Although the group,.
composed of slender, detached articles, is full of
undercutting, the bronze exhibits a fine and en
tire surface, with so little roughness or occasion
for chasing, that the eye catches everywhere the
graphic marks of the modeling-tool; precisely as
the sculptor first left them in the clay. The
Messrs. Wood are to be congratulated in the
possession of a founder of art-castings of the
first ability. This gentleman, Mr. Achille Bureau,
originally from Lille, after practicink his art in
its utmost refinement in Europe, has been for
some time associated with Messrs. Wood & Co.,
at whose foundries ho has executed
the finest specimens of statuary-casting ever
produced in the country. The universally
admired statues of the Indian Hunter, by Ward,
and of Napoleon, by.Lannt Thompson, at the
Paris Exposition, were cast by him, as well as
the larger and magnificent equestrian Washing
ton, by Henry Kirke Brown, in Union
Square, New York; while we have seen
—for art will sometimes take to carving
cherry-stones—little figures of stags and other
animals, the size of the fingernail, with antlers,
Lte., detached, of a. more delicate workmanship
than the best of the famous iron art-work of
Berlin.
We observed, in the work-room of Mr. Bodily,
a proposed model for the. General Reynolds
monument at Gettysburg; it awaits the decision
of the committee. The figure alone is intended
to be nine feet high, and represents the General
in a standing attitude, the hands meeting in
front and leaning on a sword, while one of them
holds a plan of the Gettysburg region. The
composition' has the merit of straightforward
simplicity.
Visitors to the Academy of Fine Arts during the
past season must have generally noticed a largo
painting, attractive by its subject, at once idyllic
and patriotic—the "Harvest Home," of Mr. J. W.
John. The "groups under the dreaming garden
trees," treated with a little of the manner of the
festivals of M. Maus, included returned soldiers,
politicians, beautiful Quakeresses, and all the
most characteristic population of some Happy
Valley of Rasselas in the fattest corn-lands of
Pennsylvania. This interesting picture has re
cently been sent to Boston, where we believe it
NV iII be much admired: Mr. John has just com
pleted, and will exhibit on the opening of the
Academy, a tranquil and luminous scene of Lun
cheon in Haying Time. .

Wmoins!vroN, April .I.—ittome incidents which
loppenid tafote that step was resolved upon
have been brought to light by the creation of the
new Military Division for General Hancock.
One of the most important is that the President
'has made several attempts on different
pretexts to get General Grant away from
ibis city, all of which attempts proved failures,
because the General-in-Chief Insisted - that his
headquarters are tired by law in Washington.
This fact I learn from unquestionable authority,
although General Grant's friends _have for pru
dential reasots kept matters very quiet.

(Special Despatch to tho Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.l
WAstimiToN, April 4.—Joseph A. Dear, editor
of the Jersey City Times, was next examined.
He was with the President's party, "swinging
round the circle," as correspondent of the Chicago
Republican. He reported the St. Louis Southern
Hotel speech for the Times of that city. His evi
dence was intended to corroborate that of the
previous witness.
Robert S. Chew, of the State Department, was
the next witness. He testified that shortly 'after
the passage of the Tenure of Office act the COM
missions issued by the President through the
State Department were changed in form, so that
instead of reading "during the pleasure of the
President for the time being," they read, "sub
ject to the conditions prescribed by law."
He was cross-examined briefly by Mr. Stan
bery, who brought out the fact that for thirty
three years no other change had been made in
these commissions.
From Washington.
WASHINGTON, Anvil 4.—The President to-day
sent to the House of Representatives, in reply to
a resolution, a report from the Secretary of State
relative to the correspondence, ne , oilations and
treaties had or made with any of the German
States since the let of January last, relating to
the rights of naturalized citizens.
In one of the letters from Mr. Bancroft, Janu•
ary 20, he says: Count Bismarck informs me that
the British dovernment hair inquired of hits ae ko
v.hat answer the Prusiian Government would
Mahe to the American Government on the subject
ot naturalization. In reply, be informed them of
the intention of this Government to come to au
understanding with that of America, according
to its rtviest.
The rernallis ot Count Bismarck implied that
the British government is inclined to follow the
example of Prussia, and the settlement of tne
.itmetion here will he irtu illy a settlement for
Girt at Britain.
Mr. Seward to Mr. Bancroft, Feb. i3th, &Iv+ :
1 hare informally suegested to the British Min
ister here that a proceeding in altrrn of mutual
ar.d common legishaion in the two countries
would be Blinple and probably ciaier thin formal
negotiations on the naturalization Iswe. existirw,
between the United ritates and those of the two
Goveinments respectively, inasmuch as there
are so wary other questbms which
urgently Mlllire F‘Atiernerli te.v.veen the United
States and Great Britain.'besides that of the CO2-
Meting naturalization laws.
The document, include e copy of the treat.* re
cently concluded between the United B:ates and
the North German Confederation.
Mr. Bancroft, le explaining the history of the
negotiation, says: "Oil the question of the right
c,f expatriation there arose uo discussion. It is
recce nized by the laws of both countries. On the
tmestion of residence as a condition of natural
ikttion,witich the mother country etiould respect,
there existed no difference. The time of resi
der:cc was a point of more delicacy. The Prus
sian law required an absence of ten years-; ours a
residence of five years.
"With liberality nod franknes4Cotint Bismarck
declared himself willing to accept the American
rule, as it had received the sanction of the admin
istration of Washington and had become' 11.1[61
by the usage of more than three score years and
ten."
Mr. Bancroft says should the United States
see fit, for its own purposes, as lately in act of
July 17th, 18132, to concede • naturalization on a
shorter residence, their right to do so is not im
paired, but the meaning of this• treaty is that
they will not ask North Germany to recognize
such I, aturiilization till adopted citizens shall
have completed the term of resiCenee now re
quired by their normal law.

THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL

'special Dovetail to the Philadelphia Event:es Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, April 4.—The managers then
°feted two schedules, giving a list of removals
and appointments of heads of departments by
the President, since the formation of the Gov
ernment, at any time during the session of the
Senate. Most of the list, which numbers about
thirty, were appointed as acting Secretaries for
the various Departments, generally of the Trea
sury, War, and State,dnring a temporary absence
of the Secretary himself. A contest occurred as
to whether the managers eould ask the witness
from whom the letters authorizing these appoint
ments came, and the Chief Justice decided that
they could.
Mr. Stanbery inquired of the witness whether
during his entire connection with the Depart:
ment, any officer had refused to resign when re
quested to do so by the President, but the ques
tion was promptly objected to by the Managers.
The managers offered the next documentary
evidence about the removal of Timothy Picker
ing in 1800, in which one of the reasons assigned
by President Adams for asking the immediate
resignation of Mr. Pickering is, that he must
send In the nomination of a successor as soon
as the Senate sits. The executive journal of the
Senate to which that nomination was sent was
ordered to be furnished,to show the action of tit
Senate on that occasion.
From the journal of the Senate it appeared
that the letter of removal of Mr. Pickering and
notice thereof, and the nomination to the Senate
of John Marshall to succeed him as Secretary of
State, were dated the same day, May 12, 1800.
Letters of appointment from the President were
then submitted, to show that Mr. Johtircrrue:
cognized the validity of the Tenure of Office act,
and that he subsequently made up his mind to
disregard it.
3lr. Butler, on the part of the managers, said
that they would soon close their evidence, with a
'few• exceptions which he would specify.
Mr. CrEecy, appointment
,clerk in the Trea
sury, was called and examined farther in rela
tion to the subject of appOiatments, and at half
past two the court took a recess for fifteen min
utes.
Messrs. Groesbeck and Nelson have, as yet,
taken no part in the argument of incidental
questions or the cross-examination of witnesses.
Mesers.Stanbery,Evarts and Curtis sit together
and frequently consult in a low tone, paying
little attention to their colleagues.
Meisrs. Boutwell and Bingham,after the recess,
offered and had read as additional documentary
evidence several messages of the President's,
and communications from the State Department,
relative to removals, expressly recognizing the
Tenure of Mee act and giving reasons for re
movals in compliance therewith.
Gen. Butler then stated that they had got
through with their evidence except some wit
nesses not yet here, but who are expected, whose
evidence will be simply corroborative, and some
documentary evidence hitherto overlooked.
Mr. Curtis, of the counsel, said they did not
object to this; that he now wished, on the par; of
the counsel, to ask that when this Court ad
journ it be until Thursday next, allowing three
working days to the Presidcen's counsel.
Mr. Curtis explained that they have had no
no time to collect or arrange the evidence.
He assured the Senate of his belief that
his motion, if granted, will very little,
if any, protract the trial; that the counsel
do not expect to introduce a great
deal of oral testimony or examine many wit
nesses; but they will have a great deal of docu
mentary evidence.
Mr. Conness moved that the Senate adjourn to
Wednesday next, shortening the time one day.
,Ir. Johnson moved to amend this by substi
tuting Thursday.
Several Senators attempted to get explanations,
but were called to order by the Chair deciding
that debate was not in order.
Messrs. Conkling, Sumner and Cameron asked
for information, if the Managers had anything
to submit relating to this motion
to time, but were quickly ruled out by the Chief
Justice, and the motion was put by ayes and
nays, resulting—ayes 37, nays 10
Those Toting against the de-lay being Messrs.
Cameron, Chandler, Cole, Conkling, Drake,
Morgan, Pomeroy, Stewart, Sumner and Thayer.
The Senate, on reassembling, immediately ad
journed.
