A difficulty occurred yettterdity be
'tween a bar-keeper at al saloon on
Market street, near Water, named Shultz,
'and Edward ' Smith, a colored man.
It appears that the negro, in cempl

all river men, were taken into, the saloon
by a, white man to get something to drink,
and when the fellow came to .pay for the
drinks he had not money enough to do an,
which raised a row, and by some means
Smith and the bar-keeper got hold of each
other, when Smith. it is alteged, out him
with a pocket knife, inflicting a severe
wound to the nose. Information was made

Thomas Morgan and Margaret Edwards
were before Alderman' Mollastars yestei
day on a chargetof conspiracy to defraud,
preferred by Thomas A. Mellon, of East
Liberty. It is alleged the defendants,
who reside in Pitt Township, came to the
lumber yard of the prosecutor and obtained
320 dollars worth of lumber on credit,
stating that one of them, Mrs. Edwards,
owned the sth Wad Brewery, with several
other houses, located in Pitt township, and
in the 6th Ward, Pittsburgh, and that the
lumber was for the purpose of erecting a
new brewery on her property in Pitt Town
ship. Instead of building however, the
parties retailed it out, pocketing the cash.
Itt.the meantime', the brewery, which ap
peared to have been only an old shed, was
burned down,
and when called upon to
settle up for the! lumber, the defendants
represented that it had been destroyed in
the fire. The accused were arrested. and
after a hearing' were eaoh held for court
in $l,OOO bail.

This would be a fair question, aad shall
have a fair answer. T do not : claim-bo, know
more than the faculty do about the causes,
nature, and history of Consumption. I aup;
pose that my views on these points would
be found :to agree witiAthose of most edu
cated and intelligent physicians. We
should agree that while the Asa/ cause is
obscure; in other words, while it is impossi

ing emotions , the abuses of mercury and
the influences or weakening diseases
I also agree with the best doctors
as to the manner in which the lungs be
come affected. Pulmonary. COTIRIIIII ptiOn
also called Tuberculous Consumption, by
which We mean a disease of the lungs
caused by tubercles. - A tubercle is a small,
roundish body, which is deposited in the
substance of thegungs by the blood. This
is the beginning arid first act of the disease.
Many of these are often deposited at once.
Each one tmdergoss several changes, which
I will not now explain to you, end after
producing inflammation of the parts of the
lungs next to it, ends to nleeration. opens a
paemage into the bronchial tubes, and trews
out at - the meuth by spitting. The place
where the tubercle. grew and ripened now
becomes a cavity; and where there are a
'great many tubercles, of emirs° they make
a great many of theserlittle davit ea, which
gradually unite and make great holes in
the hinge. Unless a stop can be pnt to this
process, it will go on until the substance of
the lungs is consumed and death ensues.
Of course, I agree with the !amity upon
the symptoms and course of the disease;
the short, dry, hackingeough, so slight at
first, but gradually inerensing; then short
ness of breath, a quickening pulse, then
feverish sensations, flushing of the cheeks
and heat in the palmy of tho hands, and
soles of the feet, the Might, but growing
emaciation, with feeble anpetitc,' hemor
rhages, increasing cough, disturbed
fevered tongue. then loss of appetite, talk=
ing to the bed, then expectoration of soft
ened tubercle in the shape of entail 'Lampe
of yellowish; cheesy, or curdy matter: bee
tle fever, brilliant eye, ability night sweate;
sharp pains in the sides,Thcreasing emacia

bowels, diarrhcea, nausea, emotion extrem
ities, hollow cheeky, sunken eyes, weak
ndas so great that expeutoration is impos
sible; then death, bringing welcome relief
from the tortures of this horrid monster.
Now, as I have said, I mainly agree with
the medical faculty on these points. lint
when we come to the treatment of the dia.
ease I differ from it totally. The doctors
believe Pulmonary Consumption cannot be
cured. Therefore they do not try to do any
thing more than to smooth the pationt'm
path to the grave, and seem quite reckless
of the medicines they give, so that the pa
tient in kept comfortable anti catty, even if
his life is shortened. .4sll soon as tubercles
begin to appear in the lungs of a patient, it
is a common practice with many leading .
'physicians to begin losing with whisky
in increasing quantitio* until the ravages
of excessive dram drinking are hdded to
the ravages of the diseaye. Or they send
patients away from home on distant voY•
ages, or to Minnesota or Fiorida--anything
or anywhere, so that they may die easy.
For they do not pretend to entre, and they
have no remedlis which will do wt. Now I
say not only the diseases of the lungs
can be cured, hut that my' ,medierinsy do
cure them. The proof is, that by their we

will cure.: Chills. and Fevers? Why,
by ; trying one. thing after. ; another.
until experience demonstrated that it was
a specific for that' disease. In Just that way
I came to a l knowledge of remedies that are
specifics for diseales of the lungs.
Pulmonst7 Consumption is hereditary
iri my family. My tither; , mother, broth- -
era and sisters all died °fit; 'had reached'
almost the, last stage of the same downward
road, when I was providentially led to ex=
periment-with my now famous remedies—
the Mandrake Pills, Seaweed Tonle, and:
Pulaionie Syrup. As the result you see
me before you to day in perfect health and
weighing otter two hundred pounds.
What cured 'immured thousands all over
the country. Now these results are not ac-, 1
cidental. There is no such thing as an ac
videnty in nature. My remedies cure be
,cause my theory of Consumption if) the
correct pne, and tiecause these remedies so
oomplish what I ticalre to have accomplish=
ed by my treatment. I will try and make
thick plain to_ you. whatever may be
dame, the origin of Pulmonary OnnanmP•
tion Is iii the blood. Whenever,' can any
of the Predisposing causes which:Plum*
Just now mentioned, the blood booonies4t&•
generated, it begins to make tuberkfulogs

low. It will not be enough to get rid of the
ME
tubercles already deposited and heal up
the :41eded - ?altieady - Made,' but something
must be 'Alone to sto p further deposits.
What shall that be? The regularflity
say, Nothing ;can: be done. I say plurify,
enrich and tone np the bloOd until it be
comes so healthy as no longer to make tn. ,
harpies. Can this be done? Yee.. How?
By the easiest and most natural way in the
world. Take a man such as I see many be
fore me to-day. He showa to the experi
enced eye, by many infallible signs, that
tonsumption has, set in. He is feeble and
without appetite.. . " Now see what I intend

rousing it o. of its dull, torpid state, and
promoting a , ull, free flow of healthy bile,
without whi h there can be no perfect di

Tonic. The affect of this medicine is Won

which by re, tion lets the organs affected
sink lower t an before, this not only tones
up the atom. 1, but keeps it toned up. The
natural era • rig for food returns in all its
force, so that a have now a stomach hungry
for food and a digestive apparatus ready to
make way • ith it. What next? You can;
any one of y. answer that question. Put in.
to that hung stomach an abundant suppl,v of
various and utritons food Id t, tenVertedby
the strange chemistry of - digestion into
rich red blood. This will stimulate the heart
into stronger action, and it will lump a full
er current out through the arteries; healthy
blood will take the place of the thin, blue,
flattened fluid in the veins, and soon a cir
culation will be estgblished which will flow
through the lungs without making any un
healthy deposits; strength and flesh will
increase, and the bad symptoms steadily
diminish. At the name time use my Put-
motile Syrnp, as you know I lay great stress
on this in curing consumption. People die
of consumption because they become so
feeble that they cannot throw off the dead
matter which accumulates in the lungs,
until they are so stuffed and suffocated that
breathing can no longer
. go on.
My Pannonia Syrup lathe bestexpecto
rant known. It blends with the food, and
through the blood goes directly to the lungs,
:Meeks and loosens up the yellow, foul,
rotten stuff left there by the ripened tuber
cles, and strengthens and stimulates the
bronchial tuhea and coatings of the air pas
sages, until they get strong enough to lift it
out and expel it by spitting. Then the
-lungs get ever their soreness and have a
chance to rest and heal.
So you see that I have not only shown
that my .medicines do _actually cure eon
sumption by experiment, but is also . seems
plain that they, or. something like them,
would, from the nature of the cam,. do so.
I wish I had the time to explain to yen .
more fully how they operate through all
the, different stages of the disease, and I
wish you could follow me while I explained
to you the wonderful mechanism of the
human body. But I must stop. I sum it
all up In this: Good food makes good blood,
goo.i blood makes good health, and my
medicines, Mandrake Pills, Seaweed Tonic
and Pulmonary Syrup, used according to
directions, enable this to be done.
I sue you here looking at me anxiously;
I pity you from the bottom Ad my heart,,
and wish- to -help you. Perhaps many of
you have only some alight disorder which
resembles
.Consumption in some of its
symptoms, but is not so. That I can deter

Pittsburgh. Ho relieved me at onoti, and
from that day to this I have 'hadno diffi

Semi-Annual Closing Sale" of J. W. Bar
ker dt Co., 59 Market street, which com
menced on Monday, is increasing amongst

will find a 4-4 Bleached Muslin at 12%c.,
worth 20c.; 4-4 Brown 'Muslin at 124 c.,
worth 183;c., and a stock of dress goods so
large and varied in style that it would be
