    M'Cormiok's Reaper:
The Patent Office has deolided to renew thp
patent to Mr. M'Cormich, for his Improvement in
reaping machines. This refuel is'on the ground
that the patentee has already:been amply re

StetthenVille Railroad. _
Ne havo•now a proipeot of the completing of
the railroad from Pittsburgh to Steubenville. At
a large meeting ,of the Stookbolders on the ,9th
inst., the contract with the Western - Traneporte,
Lion Company was ratified, there being only four
doesenting votes. The substance of the contract
is thus given by the Gazette: ,
The road is leased to, the' Western Transporta
tion Company for the Space of twenty years, con
tingent upon the Railroad Company paying for
the rolling ;took at' the end of 'that time. .1 The
Transportation Company pay to the road t o
per cent. of .the gross earnings, to be alipliedthet
to the payment of interest on the bonds issued in
the construction of the road, the -residue' to be
applied to the payment of contractors on Certified
estimates, with the option to convert the same
into income bonds. After these debte may . have
been liquidated, 'the residue of the' . forty per
aforesaid to be applied to the payment of the
debts of the COMpany, and what mny. then be left
will go to the ; tOokholdars. The Transportation
Company, moreover, on their-part agree to cam::
plate the road 'within eighteen menthe after 'the
let day of April, 1859.,
This lease brings the Steubenville road so into
eonnexion with that .very, einoient Company, the'
Pennsylvania road, that there is but little room
. .
to donbt of the' ooMplethig of the work. The
only let er hinderanoe which seems probable, arises
from threats of the , interference of Yirginia.
The Eitenbenville, road heing made, it will put
ne several miles on the way to Washington, Pa.,
and we shall hence hope soon to vieit'our friends
there via the (larders 11.41 road.

,Dr. Churaill on Consumption.
The following letter from Dr. Churehill, ex
planatory of the origin, operation, and effect of
his mode of treatment of that "terrible disease,
consumption, will be read with interest. This
whole method and remedy is according to the most
solentifio principles.
.7)1.0M D. OHUROHILL
i'mas. Dee. 1744 1858
Ni Than SIR : * * * * * I VIM'
mnoh regret my utter inability to send you a copy
of my work on Phthisis. The whole edition was
sold off in less than six months, and it has 'now
been out of print since February last. ,* *
I im• now engaged upon a, second edition, which
has been delayed with the hope of my beitig'ible
to settle the creation of the existence or non-ex;
fatence, in the human economy, of phosphorone in
an oxydizable condition. The ohemioal proof.,of
its existence in such a state I now confidently
hope I shall shortly be able to •lay before the pro
fession and the chemicarworld.
Your reply to Mr. Guilford's claim of priority
is perfectly to the point. The same pretension
has been raised here by two different parties, and
also by one or two in England ; but, in reality, the
nee of phosphoric sold; in Phthisis, dates as far
baOk as 1789, when it was employed in Germany
by J. B. Dentin. since then, the phosPhateo,
especially the phosphate of lime, have been need
by many practitioners, and among,others by Dr.
Stone of New Orleans. That all the cases in
which they are stated to have proved beneficial
are to be rejected, or attributed to error bf diag
nosis, I am not at all prepared to assert ; but
think they are to be accounted for in one of the
two following ways:
Any mode of treatment vrbiob is combined with
rest, and improved diet and living, may prove ben
efioial by stopping or diminishing the amount ,of
waste of the OXydizable ph . osphorns. The .phoe
photos may, therefore, have ocoasionally appeared
to be of use, just as may have change of oil:nate,
homeopathy, or anything else. •
Phosphoric acid, as shown by Weigel and King,
and later by Della - Judda, frequently contains
phosphorous acid, an oxydizabla compound, and as
such could not. have in accordance with my by
potheels, a curative effect, owing to its very im
purity.
My views, with, regard to Phthiele, may be
summed up in very few words, and are 014 fol
lows
Phthiale is a dlatbeele or , gelteral disease, depend
ing upon the want or undue it'd', of the oxydis
able phosphorus normally existing in the animal
economy: Hence it follows that the remedy
consists in supplying the deficient element by the
administration of any preparation of phosphorus
which is .at once assimilable and oxydizible.
Now, phosphorus itself possesses the latte r quality,
rind bee occasionally been used with success; but
It has not the first, and is so dangerous a substanie
that it has fallen into complete disuse. Phos
phorie acid is assimilable, but not oxydizahle.
The Hypophoephitee combine both qualities in
the highest degree, being perfectly soluble, and
nearly as oxydizable as phosphorus itself; for
whioh latter reason I originally preferred them to
the phosphite., whioh are less so.
As to the cause of Consumption, my hypothesis
leads also to one or two other consequences of the.
highest importance in practice. viz.: Although the
hypophosphites are the specific remedy of the
diathesis, they Cannot cure, by their own direct
action, the local diseases which the diathesis may
have produced in the lungs or elsewhere,,previous
to the employment of the remedy. To expect the
c o ontrary yrould 'he'just as reasonable es to think
that the water thrown upon a burning building
can do the work of the mason or the carpenter.
The repair of such local disorder is brought
about by the special energy of the parts affecied,
and will take place in all cases in which the de
itruotion of the parts involved has not gone be
yond a certain extent. The degree of the disease
;hold to be of less moment than the extent, and
iholine to go so far as to look upon Phthieis in the
third stage as of a more favorable proposis than
in the'second, all other circumstances being equi.
'The prognosis of each individual case will, there
fore, depend upon two points—the extent of the
existing lesion; and upon the presence or absence
kof complications.
Another consequence, which is, if possible, of
still greater importance than the ours of the dis
ease, is the following:
If Consumption depends upon the waste of the
oxydisahle phosphorus, it follows that the hypo
phosphites not only have a remedial; but a pre
servative power. In fact, they are a complete
prophylactic. Snob, I am confident, will prove
to be the case; and the time will come I hope,
when Phthisis and Tuberculosis, instead of oo
eupying the first place in the causes of mortality,
llke small-pox at the *sent day, form a
comparatively insignificant item.
My reason for this confidence is not derived
from my assurance of , the correctness of my gen
eral theory, but from the invariable efficacy with
which I have found them act in all incipient cases,
even of the acute kind commonly called galloping
Consumption.
I am anxious that all these assertions should
be verified by the medical profession throughout
the world, With - them, and them only, does it
rest to establish or to deny their validity. Un
fortunately, the past history of our art shows
that every discovery'in therapeutics has been met
with a storm of prejudice and opposition such as
finds no parallel except in the records of religious
distension. I might have much to relate on that
head in my own case,
but prefer leaving such
matters in the obscurity to which posterity is sure
'to consign them.
If, as you say, the people of the United States
take an interest in my discovery, the only way in
which I should wish them to show it would be by
inducing the Medical Profession among you to
'give my treatment a fair and complete trial, which,
I conceive, can only be done up - n the following
conditions :

nosis is founded. , '

" Prefer ear Schaff has a double title to our esteem in his
learning and in his truly catholic spirit. His profound
learning commands the highest respect of European
scholars. The work is lege full than Oleander, but less
meagre than Giesler. It is no mere historic skeleton of
Principles and results. Dr. Schaff enters Into the spirit of
the early Christian age, and traces Its features with great
distinctness and fidelity. There iesearcely another work
of the kind which we can name, that combines the various
Merits that are named in this.—New York Evangelist.
We can safely commend it as a general golds; learned,
.candid, catholic, devout. and in the main, accurate it its

The great Chemico-Medicet Dificovery of the celebrated
Dr. J. P. Churchill, of Paris. first made known by him to
the French Academy of Medicine about two , years ago,.
marks a new and important Era in the annals of Medical
Science.
Now, for the first time la the history of the wo•Id, has, a
INXIDY been found that surely strikes at the very founda
tion of Pulmonary Disease, and by rattoring the deficient
chemical elements of the blood, increases the principle
which constitutes nervous or vital force, invigorate, the
nutritive functions, and thus net only opals, but also PR*
TINTP, the development of thts hitherto moat fat 4 Scourge
of the human race.
/Silr - CAUTION TO THIE PIIBLIC.
Various preparations are already in the market, purport&
fog to be based on Dr. Churchill's discovery against which
we solemnly caulion both the profession and the public.
To remove all doubts in regard to the chemical purity of
my preparation of Hypophosphites, I beg the attention of
the pnblie and the profession to the Miowing
TEPTIKONT OP Da Oanmon:
. . .
" I have carefully analyzed wimples of the HYpophosphitea
of Lime, Soda, and Potash from which Mr. J. Winchester
manutacturea Dr. Churchill's Compound Solution of the
Hypopbesphltes, and . find them to be properly made and
chemically pure. Having had many opportunities of test
ing the uniform parity of the articles which he wee in
compounding this new romsdy for conemption, and hiving
a personal knowledge of hie honesty and integrity, I feel
that I can assnre the Profeesion - and the Public that this
Preparation of the Hytophosphites can be relied on.
JA11:68 ft. OILICLTON,
"New York, February 8, 1869."
And now, to further caution -the public , against impnre
and unreliable preparations claiming to be founded on Dr.
Churchill's discovery, I quote an extract from a letter pub-
DINA by him; dated the 24th of April, 1858:
Tzernmony or Ds. Offintosur..
"To be used with effect, the Hypophoimbitee must be per
fectly pure; otheiwits they may; in some ewes, appear alto
gether Inert, or even injurious. In five eases out ofsix, the
Salts usually sold as pure in Paris, under the name of
Hypophoephites, are totally unlit for Medical use. • •
"I use no other treatment of any kind, unlace required
by the existence of complications, such as interourrent in
flammation of the lungs, diarrhea, cardiac dissect. Bo."
The use of the Hypophospites shows these preparations to
have • two-fold'and specific action. On the one hand. they
increase the principle, whatever that may be, which condi
totes nervous force; and, on the other, they are the moat
powerful blood generating agents, far superior to any hith
erto known
The physiological effects of their use are shown by an in
crease of nervomi power, sometimes even from the first day
of their administration, together with an unusual feeling
of comfort and strength The appetite increases, often In
an extraordinary manner. The evacuations become more
.regular and more abundant; the perspisations. if any have,
existed, cease, sleep becomes calm and profound. All the
general symptoms disappear with a• rapidity which is really
. marvelous
