upon a white basis.
far During the past four years about
$70;000 has been given to the President
to.buy furniture, for the " White House,"
but - as Mr. Johnson took possession of
the building it is said to be so destitute of
furniture that $30,000 are now . required
furnish it! In the face of these shameful
facts $25,000 have been given to Mrs. Lin
coln, who is now worth $lOO,OOO saved
at Washington ; and the union league is
demailding that the treasury be robbed
to the• extent of $75,000 more to enable
her children to spend their lives in riehes
and-indolence, while the people are taxed
almost beyond endurance. The law pro
vides that 'the President's salary shall be
only $lOO,OOO for four years but the late
President will cost the treasury nearer
$300,000, besides an immense amount of
extras.
Nan. Lloyd Garrison has suspenaidthe
publication of the Liberator, which he
bag conducted for the last thirty-five yr's.
The old'standing motto of the paper
was: "The Constitution of the United
States is a League with , Death and a Cov
enant with Hell," and doubtless Garrison
think& that his war against it bas been so
far sumssful that this Congress will finish
the party work without further effort on
his part.
Oongreniongl Proceedings.
Congreigs re-assembled on the 6th.—
Sumner offered a resolution, which was
adopted', calling upon the President for
information in regard to the Provisional
Governors—hOw they were paid, and
whether they took the oath. He also of
fered petitions for negro suffrage, and a
protest from negroes against allowing
Colorado to be recognized as a State be
cause negro equality is not permitted by
its new Constitution. A Union League
petition, was read, asking that Mrs. Lin
coln be paid the salary of President for
the next three years. (She is now worth
11100,000.)
Propoiitions were made to add several
more amendments to the Constitution, to
create more races, and to secure negro
rights.
In the House, the documents relating to
the case of Hon. Mr. Harris were present
ed and sent to committee; a statement of
numbefof troops furnished was present
ed; arrlogoiry was instituted as to the
present state of the army ; the President
was invited to state the condition of the
Spath ; an inquiry was made as to the
muster out of troops at a distance from
their place of enlistment ; an inquiry was
directed to know .what measures were ne
cpssary to suppress polygamy ; a bill
was offered to equalize naval pensions;
bills were read to regulate Indian a
fairs, and to improve western river navi
gation ; and after various other matters
of little importance, Rufus P. Spaulding
made a negro speech.
Pennsylvania Legislature.
-The Legislature of this State met at
Harrisburg last Tuesday. Both branches
being largely Hopublican, of course there
Wu but little trouble in organizing.
' In the Senate Hon. David Fleming, of
Harrisburg, was elected Speaker,
and G.
W. H,stamersly, of Philadelphia, Clerk.
In the House, James R. Kelly, of
Washington, was chosen Speaker, and A.
W. Benedict, of Huntingdon,
Clerk.
Both branches adjourned until Wed
nesday of this week, and after a session
of a few days at that time it is understood
tha&-it will again adjourn and await the
Governor's return from Cuba. As it is
sot at all probable that the real interests
of the Commonwealth suffer from
Mach action on the part of the Legislature,
axone will complain.
". The Governor is still absent in Cuba.
The new extension of the Capitol is so
nearly. completed that the first story is
really for use. There has been some al
terations in the Senate and House cham
bers which add considerably to their con
venience.

Tale of an Involuntary Aeronaut.
In 1852 a famous teronaut advertised
that be would make an ascension from
Oakland, California. It was s, total nov
elty to nine tenths of those he addressed,
and the public rushed to see him in , l
crowds. In the ceuter of the space from
which the ascent was to be made, the
huge sphere floated, held down to vulgar
earth by a dozen ropes grasped by as ma
ny persons elected from among the by
standers. The navigator of the heavens
had not yet made his appearance, and the
audience were growing impatient, as
manifested by their shouts and curses.
He was probably playing freeze out poker
with some hush miner, in some adjoining
tavern, a la Artemus Ward, and could
not be choked offi In a few minutes
more the " machine" would have been
torn into threads, when a gust of wind
arising, the balloon was suddenly wrench
e;l from the hands that held it, and rushed
like a rocket straight towards the clouds.
Did we say wrenched from all ? No, not
'from all ! A cry of horror rose from the
lately turbulent crowd; for there, clinging
to a slight wooden cross piece, attached
to one of the cords, was a small dark ob
ject which every one pronounced' to be a
human being. A lad who had been selling
papers among the crowd was one of those
who had voiunteored to hold the guys,
and not being sufficiently alert, had been
carried off with the balloon. The specta
tors were appalled, and every observer
momentarily expected to see him drop.
But the young adventurer had no such
idea, and those who had ;lasses saw him
clamber up the cord, and seat himself
astride the cross piece. The balloon as
cended upwards in the glowing rays of
the sun, and seemed like a speck; then '
vanished all together.
It would have been difficult just then to
have insured the life of that boy at any
premium. As for the involuntary rero
naut, what must have been his feelings
as he found himself thus severed from the
firm earth to which he had been accus
tomed. At first his little heart was in
his throat, and ho seemed to have sud
denly fallen from some vast height into
an abyss of fathomless air. The world
vanished instantaneously from his sight.
The boy had unfortunately wound the'
cord about his hand in such a manner
that it was impossible to let go at once.
Yet knowing the fate that awaited him,
should he fall, he had, by the exertion of
an amount of strength wonderful in one
so young, contrived to assume the posi
tion of comparative safety already noted.
There he saw the wind driven clouds of
different strata rush past him with fright
ful velocity, and looking down, could dim
ly discern the landscape, and the ocean
with its ships, spread out on a map. Du
ring the afternoon the people of Benicia
.saw the car dash by, and little thought of
the throbbing heart that from that awful
eminence awaited in cold and anxiety the
coming night. The blood began to con
geal in the veins of the little traveler; the
act of breathing grew difficult; his nuts
, des, increased to such a fearful tension,
were beginning to relax; a numbness was
seizing on his fingers that grasped the
cord. A feW minutes more must evident
ly
terminate the terrible ride through
space. All at ohce the rope attached to
the valve was thrown against the boy.
He clutched it in his despair as an addi
tional bold upon life. Joy ! The Valve
opens ! The gas rapidly escapes 1 The
balloon is once more nearing the earth !
It rushes into the leafy embrace of a
grove of trees, and after a violent strug
gle, rests.. hen some ranchman, who
had been watching the descent, reached
the spot, he found the young adventurer
seated on the ground at the foot of an
oak, looking the picture of astonishment,
but none the worse for his journey, ex
cept a few scratches.
We have heard of persons whose hair
from terror turned gray in a single night.
The hair of the lad, on coming down,
was a bright red, but as it was red be
fore he went up, we do not know that this
was anything remarkable. We meet him
--the boy then, the man. now—daily; be
looks like .nnotler mortal, and seems . to
have forgotten all the circumstances to
• bich be was•indebted for his elevation.

READ WHAT DR. SCHENCH IS DOING.
DR, T.H.
DEAR :-1 feel it a duty I owe tv you, and to all
who are suffering under the diseases known as Con•
sumption and Liver Complaint, to let them know
what great belied lb I have received from your Pultuo
nlc Syrup and Seaweed Tonic in so short a limo. by
the blessin: of Got it has cured me thus far.
lir. Schenck:, I will now make my statement to you,
as foflou a :—A bout eighteen months ago 1 was attack
ed with a severs cough, and it settled on my lungs; I
could not retain anything I ate, and suffered with ev
ening fevers and night sweats. I was very much re
duced. The whites of my eyes were very yellow: Me
wine my skin; Lay appetite all cone, and unable to di
gest what I did eat; bowels swollen. Irregular and cos
tive, I was vt•ry low spirited, and had such violent
spells of caughing when I laid down at night and
when I arose In the morning that they would lust one
or two hours.
I then would be nearly exhausted, and was entirely
unable to Ile on my left side. 1 cannot describe my
wit etched sotering as I would wish to do. Every or
gan in my body was diseased or deranged Such was
my situation at this time, and I was confined to my
bed irum the lust ut February. 15119 to :lane. 1852, not
able to sit up. I had the beet of medical attendance
the whole of the time My cough was so very had that
it racked we e. ry much. lat this time raised a large
quantity of thick, ytl low offensive matter. sometimes
with blood, and it was generatly itemu panted by nau
sea and a furred and th.ek touted tongue. !tithe time
of coughing PO badly 1. would have sharp, shooting
pains in Inv left side and heart, night sweats. and
soreness all through my whole chest; had mneh in
ward ie.% or, pain in my back and„under m v shoelder
mad, and in the small of my back, and at times ym se
vere that it would throw me into spastns. Now Ml'
ph ysi. {tilts gave me tip to die. Others I had, and the
nest of them. but they could do nothing for me. and at
that time I was nothing but skin and bones. I then.
was in the western part of Missouri in June list we
left there for the hest, and in Angust last we came to
New York. and I was so reduced that I could only
walk a little with my husband's help. Atter I had been
here a short time the a it water breeze made me feel
much better for a time and then I had again to call a
plivsician for aid. We had our of the best physicians
of New York ou the disea es of the lungs. and doctors
of all kinds, but of no avail. They said I was past cure,
and that my lungewere too far gone lorany one to cure
me, But at this time I was kin my feet about the house,
not able to do much of nothing, In November last I
"Irein worse, and the consumption diarrhea set in Imo.
lasted about eight weeks. We had tried all and every
thing that I could grasp at like a dying person for my
disease—cououmptiou and liver complaint—but of no
avail.
In January,lB63, I was brought down again on my
bed. and was not expected to live the night out. lily
husband stayed at my side, nod other friends, and they
all give me up to die: At this time every one who saw
me did not think I would ever leave my bed a living, wo
man. The first night I was attacked with spasms, and
was deranged most of the time. A friend, Mrs. Harris,
came to see me the last of the week. and brought the
Sunday Mercury. In it was an account of a great cure
performed by Dr. Schenck. She read it to me, and it
was so much like my disease that ' , asked my husband to
go and see him for me. At this time I had given up all
hopes of ever hie
well again, and made my peace
with God. to he ready whenever he to led for me.
On the 27th of January, 18,13, my husband called on
Dr Schenck, 32 Bond street. New "York, and stated to
him my case, with a .equest for him to call and see me,
which he did, and examined me with the respimmeter.
When he was about to go I asked him if he could cure
me t Ills reply was: •• I cannot tell, both lungs are
diseased, and tqc bronchial tubes are affected on both
side'." And yet he set mcd to think there were lungs
enough left to effect a cure if the diarrhea could he
stopped. He said In order to do this, he woad have to
give me Mandrake Pills in small doses at first, to carry
off the morbid ma ter, and then, with striments ,be
hoped to check it. which he did, but the constant
coughing, night sweets, and diarrhea bad prostrated me
so that he was afraid my strut powers were too-much
prostrated everto rally, and vet he seemed to think if I
could lice to get enough Pnimonic Syrup through my
system to cause expectoration there were lungs enough
let for me to recover. Ile wished me to try the ruhno•
nic Syrup and Seaweed Tonic at once. saying it would
do me no harm. If It did me no good. The first week it
seemed to give me strength, so that on Sunday after I
Bat up in bed and ate hearty for a sick woman; but the
next week I lost all hope and wished my husband n-t
to give me any more medicine. But the doctor warned
him of this, and when themedicine was clearing out the
system it made them feel somewhat restless. and to
persevere; and he insisted on me taking it: and now I
feel the benefit of it. For after eight days I began to
gain my strength. and, with the exc'eption of a cold thst
cut me hack some, I have been gaining strength of
body, my cough is going away. and all my pains are
gone; no sureness of the body. my bowels are regular,
and my breath is aweet,and I thank God that lam now
