• . Schenek's — Pulnumic - Syrup; -- _-
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will erre Con
sumption, Liver Complaint, and Dyspepsia, if taken
according to directions. They aro all th re., to be
taken at the same time. They cleinso the stomach,
relax the liver, and put It to,work: then the Arpin
lite hocomes good : the food dkosts'stud-makes good
blood: the patient- tiegini to .grow: in: flesh the
diseased matter ripen. in the lunge, and 'the pa.
tient outgrow. the disease and gate wall. This is
tho holy way to cure coneumntion. , • •
',To these three medicines Dr. J. Schenk, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrelated success in the
treatment of pulmonary consumption, The Poi
monic Syrup ripen the morbid matter la the lunge,
naturp,throws It off by an easy-expectoration, for
when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight rough
It ill throw It off, and the patient has rest nod the
lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills
mind 10 - freefy need tocleansetlii stomach and liver,
eo that the Pulmonic Syttip and the food will make
good blood.
dchenck'e Mandrake Pills:set upon the liver re
moving all obstructions, relax the. duct of the gall.
bladder, the 'elle starts freelY, and the liver is Noon
relieved; the stools will Ado . whit the Pills can
do; nothing has ever beeninvented except calomel
(a deadly poison *lehichls very dangerous to use un
less wall great care), that will unlock the gall blad
der and start the secretions of the liver like Schenck's
Mandrake Pills.
Lifer complaint is ono - of the nlost — promident
causes of conaumption.
Schenek's Seaweed Tonle is a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the alkali in' the Seaweed, which
that preparation la made of, assists the stomach to
throw out the gastric juice to dieselve the food with
the Puimonic Syrup, :mil it is 'made into good blood
without fermentation or souring in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians don't cure con
sumption le, they try to do, too much: flay give
medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to atop
night esveatst.hectialevcra and by so doing they de
range the whole digestive powers, locking up the
eseretioiss,and eventually the patient sinks and dies.
Dr Schenck, in Ms treatmentdoes not to slop
a cough; night eardats,irohilis or 'fever. Remove
the cause and they will all stop of their own accord.
No one can be cured of Consumption, Liver Com
plaint, Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Cancer, illcated Throat
unless the liver andstornach aro made healthy.
If n person has consumption of course the bingo
in some mil , are diseased, either turbercies,
'see, brolachial irritation, pious adhesion, or the
lungs are a mass of Inflammation and fat decaying.
the lungs that aro wasting, built is the whole bodiy
The stomach end liver have lost their power to make
blood oat of food. Now the only chance is to take
Schnook's three medicines, which wilt bring. up a
the to the stomach, the patient will begin to want
food, it will digest malty and maks good blood; then
the patient begine to gain in flesh, and as soon as
the body begins to grew,the lungs commence to hoe.
up and the patient gets fleshy and well. This is
the only way to cure consuption.
When there is no long disease,and only liver com
plaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills aro sufficient without the Pulmonie
Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pelts freely in all bil.
ous complaints, as they are perfectly harmless.
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for tinny yearn past, and now weighs 225
pounde, was wasted away to a more skelaton,in the
last stag. of Pulminary Consumption hie physician
having pronounced his cars hopeless and abandoned
him to his fate. Ile who cured hr the aforesaid med
ian., and since his recovery ninny thousand simi
larly afflicted havii used Dr. Schnook's preparetions
with the same remarkable SUCCORS. ,Full directions

FIRST MOIITGAGB BONDS,
This great enterprise is approaching (completion
''ff)th a rapidity that -astonishes the world. Ovor
fifteen (1100) ilaulred miles have been built by two
. (2) powerful gtuagp.f . 44l4 , l2„)on Pacific Railroad,
beginning'at Omaha, billalog West, and the Oen.
ral Pacific Railroad beginning at Sacramento, And
building east, until the two roads shall meet. Leas
than two hundrffd and fifty miles remain, to be
built. The greater part of the Interval la now grad
ed, and it te reasonably expected that Ilie throiagh
connection between San Francisco and Now York
will be complete by July I.
As the amount a Government Aid given to each
is dependant upon eJongth of road each- shall
build, in) th compante 'at o prompted to great efforts
to secure the construction and control of what,
whoa completed, will' be one and the only proud
"Rhilnicul Line canne2ting the :Atlantic ad - Pacific'
oast.
One Hundred and Ton Million Dollars ($llO,OOO,
, S 00) In money have aireadybeen exponded by'the
two powerful cempanles engaged in this great en
terprise, and they will speedily complete Um por
tion yet to be built. Whim the United States Oov
toroment found it necessary to secure the construe
_ lion of the Pacific Railroad, to devilop and protect
Ito own interest, it pie tho companies antherleed
to build it rush ample aid •its—nheuld repder Its
speedy completion beyond h doubt. The Govern.
meet aid Maybe briefly summed pp as fellows:
First.. The right of way and all ,n ores vary Umbel
and 'atone from public domain.
.Second. It makes a donation' of 12,800 acres of
and to the milei which, when the road le completed,
.•iii amciunt to twenty-thrao million (23,000,000)
wee, and all of it within. twenty (20) mile!: of
aliroad.
Third. It loons the comp ides fifty million dol
lars (850,000,000), far which It Takes a second lion.
The Government has already loaned the Tinton
roan. Railroad twenty-four million and fifty
eight thousand dollars (r 1.1,058,000, and to the
Ventral Incite Railroad seventeen million six hun•
Bred-and-forty-olghttboosand (17,848,000), - nmonnt..
pig In all to forty one million coven hundrod and
six thomand dollars (4 , ,706,000).
The Companies are permitted to issue their own
Firet Mortgage Donde to the same amount as they
naive from the United dates, and no more. The

from State of California. and oacramento city and
San Francisco), upwards of ($25,000 000) twenty
five million dollitra capital, stock. •
WHAT 18 THERE YET TO DE. DONE /
In considering - this question it moll, be remem
bered that all the remaining Iron %.:• Jalsh the
road is contracted for;and the largest portion paid

Oovornmoot;upon the completion of the road they
will have received in all 33,000,000 acres, which tit
$l4O per acre would bo w0rth . 534,500,000.
In addition to the above the net' earnings of

A STAGE COACH STORY.
Several years ago,six travelers, found
themselves seated together in a stage
in the far. Northwest, and to relieve the
tedium of the journey, one of them told
the following story :
In the year *IS--, a family of , emi
grants from Now England established
themselves on an uninhabited prairie
near what was then the extreme btu=
dors of western civilization. They
consisted of a husband and Wife, the .
widowed sister of the latter, and her
infant.child. No neighborly greeting
awaited them, for they were the only
dwellers within a circuit of ten miles ;
find the nearest settlement was, half a
day's journey distant,- The widow
was a lively but a broken-spirited wo
man or t\vetity-two. Since „her hus
band's death, her affections were Cen
tered in her .bribe. She had been left,
in coMfortable circumstances ; in faot,
her brother-in-law, being a poor man,
- the - land_ _they nccupied, together
the farming steel( ,and implements,
were purchased with her means.
A feW months' labor sufficed to give
the family a comfprtable. home, and to
surround it with many signs of com
mencing pinsperity. Autumn had pas
sed, and they were loOking,forward to a
season of comparative ease and enjoy
ment, when, one day; Mr. Hartwell, as
I shall call the bead of the household,
found it-necessary to, go to - the nearest
village, for the purpose of getting sup •
plies. These, it was arranged, should
be for Warded.to him by a passing team,
in the course of a day or two, as his
own wagon bad broken down;-and he
was forced to. make the journey on:
horseback. -- The weather, when he
started, had been slightly overcast with
a rising wind from the northeast ; but
none of, the family were prepared for
the sight which they encountered the
-morning aftm hiss us .__A slightfalL
of snow, which began the night before,
had increased to such a degree that the
drifting material was piled almost to
the eaves of the cabin, and already ren
dered iniaßsable every toad that led
to , it_ They were close prisoners, with
no prospect of a speedy release, for the
storm continued all day with the ut
most fury. — At.first but little alarm
was. felt - by the blockaded inmates..
Their weed . : pile_ was sheltered and ea
sily accessible, and the food on hand
would suffice for three or four days, at
the. end of which time they had no
doubt- the purchased supplies would
reach them. They had never heard of
the.terrifie tempests which sometirs,
in that latitude, convert the_ prairies
into a howling ocean of snow for weeks
together.
The fifth day came and Wont, and
still the storm raged on.. They were
now almost buried on all sides, and the
cold had become intense. At length,
when they beep' three days with
out' food, he ivho should have been
their protector to the end, began to
throw out hints which made the wid-
Ow% flesh' ' Creep, and her heart: Sink

Neit .14'he spoke out More
One, of them, ho said, must be sacrific
ed to save the rest, and that ono Must
be the youngest and most useless. The
Wretched woman clasped her infant
more closely, and -shrunk into the far
thest corper of the roorn, as she heard
the threat, and marked the glance which
accompanied it=a glance tolling not
more of hunger than of hate. • It was
charity to suppose that the man's brain
was disordered by his sufferings ; but
yet it was 'evident that this dire .emer.
gency had also' served .to bring into
open view the workings of malignant
passions, long and craftily concealed.

.her fernier condition.
When she,recovored the use, of her ,
senses, nighl ,had,. come on, and all.

The single window in the ,room,wae
,directly behind the bad, and n ope'ned
upon a rude piazza,,Whichlheltered
that side of the dwelling. After- a
shorkinterval,the widovibecame aware
that some'one inside was endeavoring
to unfasten the heaVy wooden shutters.
Incapable 'of further resistance' she.
could ,pnlyllie in breathless' silence,
awaiting the result. - • •
In a few moments the shutters were'
flung apart, and - her brother-in-laves
body was protrudedthrough the open 7
ing, which was without sashes. /His
arm was raised, and- again the knife
hung suspended over the head of ,lier
1111C011BC101.18 - brabe. The helpless wo
man closed her eyes, and sent up a si
lent prayer to that Power who once
before had turned aside the fatal stroke.
At that moment she heard from be
neath '
the window a low, hoarse growl,
mingled with short, snarling yelps, as
if from a crowd of infuriated animals.
Then a snriek of mortal terror burst
from the lips of the would:be assaseirki,
his knife dropped harmless beside the
intended victim;, he clutched for ft few
moments, frantically, at the window
ledge, and tuen disappeared, dragged
dewn by some resistless foe.
When the widow once more regain
ed consciousness, she found herself and
child in, the hands of friends, by whom
their wants were tenderly supplied.
Within two hours after the everits just
related, a party from the village-had
succeeded in-making their way,to the
solitary cabin: Mrs. Hartwell was al
ready dead. Her sister was at first
supposed to be beyond hope of recov
ery, but by care and skill her restora
tion was effected..
-A few rods fro the &oaring, the
body of Hartwell was discovered, al
most-- devuured--by—wolves,- who had
been emboldened 4- k y. fondue te 'sur
round the house.-
The -mother lived to see her' babe;
thus strangely rescued, grown to vie.c
°roue manhood • and -he
_himself bas

with this account of early dangers and
escapes, close to the scene-of •their oc

'The-Daughter or 4v.aron Burr.
Theo . dosia Burr's habits of life were:
I have heard -my-mother - say, much
like those of. Mrs. Kemble. She was
a famous walker and skater, and .ac
companied her father on shooting and
fishing excursions. As a horsewoman
she was unsurpassed ; arid, on her visit
-to her-New England friends; sometimes
astonished their'quiet neighbors 'riding
over the country, taking walls and
ditches in flying leaps.. Yet, she was
.in-the best sense of the word, feminine,
and essentially a lady.
, The last days of this grand woman
:_were_sery_sad,..ancl her_fate-is-esten
w rap tin awful obscurity. It is only
known that, , ,when broken in heal tlyand'
almost in heart, by the loss of her only,
son, she embarked from Charleston, to,
join her unhappy father in Now 'York,
on a small sailing vessel, accompanied
only by her physician and servant.
That VesSel was never heard of Mery
and it has always been supposed thritl
it foundered- in a gale aff Cape Hatter
as. But some twenty-five or thirty
years . ago, ,beamau . , dying. in a, hos
pital at New Orleans, confessed to hav

'terrible things, he fold of his ship hav

few passengers, ho said, find such of
the 'ci,ew as were disinclined to enlist
under their black tanner, they com

passengers was one lady, T;ho .remon-'
strated against having her hands bound
and being blindfolded; promising.to of

her own Way, he said, and she. stepped
On to the plank, and, with her eyes

could'nt think of risking a mitten and
the fun the boys would have in conse

Soon. after, therefore, •at noon, I
watched my opportunity, and when all
the soiMlars down to the alphabet, were
out-of -doors; -Icalled-therobject-of-my

The usual remarks about the weather
were interchanged, and I said it was
pleasant.indeed; when in fact it rained
like split. I expected, of course, that
the object of my adventure would in

but far from that, for we sat• a whole
hour without moving, while I said only
" yes" and " no" and " I guess, so,"
arid "so I heard," and whatever I
couldn't help saying. ,
Pretty soon the object of my adven

He noticed, however, tbat.she held the
