ROME.
The assassinations of French soldiers
bontinue daily.
It was not expected that the Pope
Would return soon, or that the French
army would leave immediately. Great
hostility was still maintained towards
the Pope.
An Austrian envoy had arrived in
Rome to conclude a treaty of commerce
for the navigation of the river Po.
Calpalco, one of the Neapolitan in
surrectionists, has beeh arrested in
Ronie.
In speaking of the returnof the Pope
io Rome, a correspondent of of the Lon
don Times says—" If he returns, it
must be under the protection of for
eign bayonets, for among the People at
large little sympathy is avowed, and all
biasses dread so much the restoration of
clerical intolerance, that no one can per
suade himself it may be excluded from
the papal train.
Should the Pope neglect to prepare
the way for his return, it will be a trou
bled one.
ENGLAND,
The English Press devotes much space
to the consideration of Canadian annex
ation address, and its tone and temper
Ls highly commended. The London
Times says, that by whomsoever the
document is proposed or concocted, it
reflects great credit on the tact, skill and
adroitness of its authors.
In speaking of the possible assent of
England to the annexation of Canada to
the United States, the Times says :
" Yet the conduct of the people will be
directed by motives of prudence and
interest alone—if they think they can
do without Canada, then and then only,
Will they give up Canada.
" But in surrendering Canada, they
will take care not to surrender one jot
br sea or land, the possession of which
nearly and effectively concerns the mar
atime and commercial importance of
Great Britain.
a They twill not cede Mit% Scotia—
they will not cede Cape Breton—they
twill not cede those seaboards and har
bors, which must ever command the
Moutii of St. Lawrence, and protect the
trade of the Atlantic."
Death of Judge Huston.
Irr'Judge HT'STON, formerly of the Supreme
Court of this State, died at his residence, in
Bellefonte, on Saturd4last, in his 80th year.
He was much respected in and out of his profes
sion. He held a seat upon the , bench until he
was incapacitated by advanced age, in conse
quence of constitutional limitation.

. •
Da. J. 11. Sett:vacs, —Dear Str,—l am induced
from a sense of justice towards you, as well as
duty to the public, to make known one of the
moat hopeless and extraordinary cures, in my
own person, that you have ever had the pleasure
to record. Indeed, I regret my inability to por
tray, in tretliflil colors, my consuming disease,
and the remarkable chance which Sc htteck'a
Pulmonary Syrup effected in so short a time.
I was taken ignite time pravious to December
1848, with a heavy cold, producing incessant
coughing, accompanied with acute pain in the
right side, pains in the beck, under the right
shoulder, having hertfry night sweats,high fevers
&c., which made me so nervous and restless as
to produca utter prostration. All these offlictions
increased with such Violence, that on the 4th of
January lust I sent fur my family physician. He
attended me faithfully, and prescribed every thing
that medical skill could suggest, but without ef
fect. I found Myself gradually growing worse,
and my hopes of recovery lessening as my dish
ease increased. My cough became distressing t
my pains severe; and, extremely debilitated, I
lost all ambition in life, and gave up to a melan
choly depresaion. My physician examined me,
and informed me I hod an obsess on the upper
port of my liver and lower part of one of illy lungs:
Notwithstanding all this skill, I a rmy worse, but
with that tenacity with which we all cling to life,
I concluded to leave nothing undone, and called
in a consulting physician, who fully concurred
with my own, and pronounced my case an ex
tremely critical one. He thought I was in Itn ,
minent danger---saying my disease ..was one that
is seldom if ever ctired . '." 'All this time I was en
during sufferings that made life burdensome ; ex- I
periencing great pain in coughing; expectora
ting from a pint to a quart of nauceous matter
every It hours, and gradually sinking under the
weakning progress of my disease. At this stage
of my illness, my friends in Mittel suggested
the use of Schneck'e Pulmonic Syrup, but know
ing the many expedients resorted to for the pur
pose of draining money from the afflicted, I hes
itated. My friends, however, insisting, Iwas
prevailed upon to try its virtues. I commenced
taking the Syrup about the first of March, end
used several bottles before I had any confidence
in it. I then began to experience a charge for
the better, and continued it till I had consumed
ten bottles, when I was so far relieved as to lie
able to visit Dr. Schneck in Philadelphia. He
examined me, and pronounced my right !ung af
fected, but in a healing colt lition, fie recom
mended the further use of the Syrup, which I
Continued till I consumed 15 bottles, and found
myself Once more restored to health. I will fur
ther add, that the consulting physician, seeing the
action of the medicine, fully approved its use.
To give the reader some idea of the severity
of my case, and the rapid cure affected by the
Syrups I willetate that my usual weight in
health was 17t pounds, which was finally, re
duced by my sufferings to but 121 pounds. Yet,
on the first of this month, (September,) I weigh.
ed 174 pounds, thus gaining in a few months 53
pounds, and within three pounds of my heaviekt
weight. It is not in my power to convey, in the
short space of this certificate, the convincing
proofs of sly remarkable cUre, or the particulars
of the agonizing afflictions through Which I have
passed ; but to those who will take the trouble to
call on me, at Bristol, opposite Pratt's hotel, I
shall take pleasure in detailing every particular.
In conclusion, I deem it my duty to urge upon
every person who may have the premenitary
symptoms df this fatal disease, not to delay one
hour, but to call upon Dr Schneck immediately.
His skill in the treatment of this complaint, and
proMpt detection of diseased parts of the lungs
by means of his Stetheseopo, added to my own
miracu'ous cure, fully satisfiesme, that had I ear
, lier submitted myself to his care, I should have
escaped much suffering; but restrained by doubts
and suspicion, which make us all naturally skep
tical in regard to the virtues of a medicine when
• first introduced, I resisted the importunities of
' my friends till almost too late ; and yielded only
as a last resort, resolved to «kill or cure:" To
those afflicted as I have been, again let me say,
hesitate no longer, my own case is pretreated to
you as convincing evidence, that when all else
fails your last hope is in Dr, Schneck's Pulmonic
Syrup. I have also for the satisfaction of those
; who may be strangers to me, appended to this err
, tificate the names of gentlemen well known in
. the walks of public apd private life, and whine
standing id sciciety admits of Ito cavil or doubt in
r regard to their testimony.
CHARLES G. JOHNSON.
We the tintletsigned, residents of Bristol and
vicinity, are well acquainted with Mr. Johitiari ,
and know him to have been afflicted as he slates
above. We also know that ho used Schneck's
Pulinonic Syrup, and have every reason to he
lieve, that to this medicine he owes his preserra
lion from a premature grave. The known In
tegrity and pdsi.loh ih society Of Mr. Johriscin,
however is a sufficient guarantee to the public of
the truth of this statement.
