To Li able to state confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under the control ol medical treatment as any Jlher formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first stages, and fifty per cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per cent., lor the lutigs are so -cut tip by the disease as to bid defiance to medical skill. Even, however, in the lost stages, in halation affords extraordinary relief to the -uficring attending tills fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the Coiled States alone; and a correet calculation shows that out of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty millions are des tined to fill the consumptive's grave. Truly the quiver of death lias no arrow so fatal as Consumption. In all ages it lias been the great enemy ol life, for it spares nei'her age nor sex, but sweeps rIT alike Hie brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom corncth every good and perfect gilt, I atri enabled to ofler to the atficteil a perma nent ar.d speedy cure in Consumption. The first cause ol tubercles is from impure blood, and the immediate effect, produced by their depo-ition in the lungs, is to prevent the free admission of air into the air cells, winch • causes a weakened vitality through the entire system. Then surely it is more rational to expect greater good from rr.edi eines entering the cavities of the lungs than Irmn those administered through the stom ach; the patient will always find the lungs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. Tims, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and with more power and certainly than rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the poweilol and direct influence cl this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled w ill entirely destroy sensibility in 11 lew ruin n'es, paralyzing the entire nervous system, so that a limb may be amputated without the s'lghlcst pain ; inhaling the ordinary turning gas will destroy lile in a lew hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system w hen fainting or apparently dead.— I he odor <H many ol the medicines is per ceptible. in the skin a few- minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood A convincing proof of the I cnnstitnlioHal eflecls ol inhalation, is the fact j that sickness is always*produced by breath ing foul air. is not this positive evidence Hint proper remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy results? Du ring eighteen years' practice, manv thous- I amis, suffering fro.n diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and I have affected many remarkable cores, even alter Hie suflbrers had been pronounced in Hie last stages, which fully satisfies me that consumption is no longer n latal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance wiili Hie nature of tubercles, &c , enables me to distinguish readily the various forms of dis ease that simulate consumption, and apply the proper remedies rarely being mistaken even in it single case. This familiarity in connection with certain pathological and nti ctoscnpic discoveries, enables mc to relieve the lungs from the clfeeis ot contracted chests; to enlarge the chest, purify the blond, imparl to it renewed vitality, giving energy and tone to the entire system. Medicines with foil directions sent to any part ot lite United Sales and Canadas by patients communicating their symptoms by teller. But the cure would be more eeitaia if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give tnu an opportunity to examine tlie lungs ami enable mo to prescribe with greater certainty, and then the cure could be effected without my seeing Hie patient again.

TLffAS established a greater celebrity than I has ever been obtained by any other 1 Starch. ■ This has been the result of its marked su periority iu quality, and its invariable uni formity. The public may be assured of the continu ance of the Irgh standard now established. The production is over Twenty Tons daily, and the demand husexlended throughout the whole ol the United Slates, and 10 foreign countries. Working thus on a very laige scale, and under a rigid system, tliey are able to secure a perfect and un iformity in the quality tnrough out the year. This is the great Desideratum in Starch-making, and is realized now lor the first time. The very best starch that can be made,and no other, is always wai ted by consumers, and-wbila this will be supplied to them by lite grocers, as soon as their customers have learned which is the best, and ask for it— otherwise they would be likely to gel that article 011 which the largest profit can be made. Mr. Kingsford lias 'been engaged in the manufacture of starch continuously for the last 27 years, and during the' whole of the period, the starch made under his supervis ion has been, bevond anv question, the best in tho market. For the first 17 years, he had the charge of the works ol Wm. Colgate & Co., at which period he invented the process of the manufacture of corn starch. Of Askjor Kingsford's Starch, as the name Oswego has 1 ecently been taken by another fac tory. T.

The undersigned, members of the Commit- I tee, do respectfully report, that we saw the j two Safes originally agreed cpon by Parrels & Herring and Evans & Watson, placed side by side it: a lurnace, viz; The Sale in use by I the Paymaster of the Philadelphia and Read j ing Railroad Company, in his office at Read ing, manufactured by Farrels & Herring, and the Safe ill use by H. A. I.anlz, ill his store, manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put in books and papers precisely alike. The tire was started at 84 o'clock, A. M., and kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords dry oak and half chestnut lop wood were entirely consumed, the whole under the superintendence of the subscribers, mem bers ol the Committee. The Safes were then cooled off with water, after which they were opened, agd the books and papers taken out by the Committee and sent to H, A. [audit's store for public examination, after they were first examined and marked by the Commit tee. The hooks and papers lakett Irom the Safe manufactured by Evans & Watson were but slightly affected by the intense heal, while those taken from the Safe manufac tured by Farrels & Herring were, in our judg ment, damaged fully fifteen per cent, more than those taken from Evans & Watson's Safe.
