Fn>,n the X. F. Sprit of the Time*. \ Hiiml-ttroiind Supper in Alabama. Among the most perplexing of the small calam . to which civilized humanity is heir, none, for tune being, are better calculated to disturb • »il humor, and upset equanimity, and radically ■ the conceit out of a man,-than to tind himself 1 in a situation, in a drawing-room or at an ,-'iing party, where prompt decision is indispen , and neither guide or precedent is at hand to ate the course to be pursued. There pettv I .wince are sometimes magnified bv circum- j - es into positive distresses. Tliese are things , .ie comforting iu life, there are situations more j ibe envied, than that of a man groping in the | ■ i i.topiiitt t’of fashionable society, compelled j . act without previous acquaintance with its j . * and painfully conscious that the slightest j gnorauce or madvertancc will he duly heralded as ! t.i 1 ‘best joke of the season.’ And little sympathy or disposition to relieve -•in embarrassment is felt or manifested by the i _ ueralitv of man or woman kind towards a suf- i ring victim. There is only one instance on the [ record of courtesy and true politeness where a ! r entleuiau, at his dining-table, drank of!' unhosta- I ugly tin' iiuger-bowl of tepid water, in wider to i ■•op in couutenauce an unfortunate guest, whose ] iliriousness of that “institution'’ had led him to . despatch at a gulp a similar bowl to appease his j iirst. This exception, confirming the general ' adds this general truth as another argument i a stippoi tof the theory of innate cruelty. And j ■•nee, many an unhappy soul is allowed to llouti- I t about in ail the mazes of gaucheiie, enduring j _ ‘iiy the most pitiable, until he is slowly and j •oderly drawn ashore by some fiendish Chester- | • i I, who, in his mission of mercy, takes good i ire tii at every body present shall have a fair view of ! Jlffte points of the “animal;” or, until the poor i .•lit. disencumbered of all remaining sense, with a ! desperation of resolution adequate to the most for- j ni hope, cuts the Gordian knot, and relieves •as -If from his dilemma by incontinently taking his hec-ls -mmoting. The latter was the inglo .sexpedient adopted by Hill Brisson at the mein i.irable “tea (light" that came off at Gen. Jones’ a the first of May, Aniu) Domini 184 . But we List permit Bill to relate his “hair-breadth’scape” i his own language, us he narrated it lasi winter • .in admiring crowd assembled in the social hall • i Warrior river steamboat. ■Speaking of ■iw/it!Jir.*, gentlemen, I was in but as long as my head’s hot. I’ll never be aught again never. You are all acquainted ith Miss Angelina Jones General June’s second : ilighter; about fifteen years ago, you know, she ■on a beauty, and no mistake— ■ The most peerless piece of earth, I think. That e'er the sun shone bright on." 1 was jisi sixteen years old -Angy, as l endear iglv called her in my heart of hearts, was tvventv .gli’t; still, Byron-like, 1 loved her, and with a de ■tfdness tliat had no parallel outside of fashiona novels f feel queer when 1 think of her now. i i spell tins paragon had over me was wondrous; i accidental look transfixed me, and set a watery ipor floating before my eyes ; a word set a hmi- I jewsharps a playing in my ears; her touch me absolutely a buck ague. Jn short, I was ii'is-over-head many fathoms deep in love—en 'uuiering, in imagination, multitudinous perils rher sake; had sav ed her, in my walking dreams, ii, • lowest calculation, from the sinking wrecks f thirteen steamboats, three hundred runaway -Tapes in carriage and on horseback, fought and killed twenty-seven * men in buckram,' in duels, i her account, took to ‘rhyme and melancholy’ old whisky, and, to cap the climax, I engraved ei initials, ’ A.

J. d for the hero of the Hermitage, until an evil- j ' disposed person, much to mV detriment, interpre- | , ted them to signify A ./ “About fifteen years ago, I was invited, by the j (steal imported method, to take tea at Geu. Jones’, j That was an epoch in my life; it was the first pub- i lie acknowledgement of aiv sixteen-vear-old man- ; hood, ami I resolved to go. Now one word about i my raising, and the position of the Jones family j iu society. My parents, yott know, belong to the plain, substantial, respectable, but unfa'fit!tiling • lass, and regulated their household economy ac • rdniglv ; and when we slept we slept in beds, rid when we ate our meals we sat down to a ta ble on which the eatables were placed, with a ser ■ mt behind us to administer to our wants; blit •die Joases, being descended from the first fami s of South Carolina, which is a kick above the j i K \ ,’s. connected tilings on an upperten, high j i-i-sstir.'. patent-back-action principle, a fa trail- . , - and fiddle sticks latest improvements, and all j , iat. I went to the tea-fight - God forgive me! riving at the door, 1 was salaamed in by the im-st dressed nigger I ever saw, and entering the : il; .uving-room, around whieh the guests were ar- | l unged, every other one a gentleman, and every , • roue a lady, I dropped, in a state of collapse j undembarrassment, into a seat nearest the door, j I was not suffered to remain long in repose; a nig , :'. holding in his hands a huge waiter, covered j with empty plates, entered the door and inarched . siiii up to me, tint- man. The brilliant idea flashed on my mind that this manoeuvre was only j a prelude to setting the table, and the pantomime j p kingthe machine with empty plr.tes on it towards me was quickly interpreted bv me to signify that i fie desired little assistance, or, in other words, j that lie expected tne to hold the concern, whilst lie ; brought in the table, spread the cloth, Ac. On : tins hint I acted. Springing up hurriedly, for : fear of exposing my ignorance of mutton, 1 seized ! the institution’ which he holdout tome with both ! bauds, anil strove to disengage it from the ser- ' rant. Now came a scene-the servant backed, I . / ". !'• ti .<£</, shook the waiter until the plates there- I on jingled again, to satisfy him that I had good grip on it. and that he might safelv give it up ; whispering, byway of quieting his apprehensions, , *‘ fc g“t it--set go. But the black rascal hung on manfully. Ip to this point mv eyes had been di .acted to the waiter, now 1 looked up in the ser vant’s iace ; it was in a broad grin, ivory all ox posed, as he said, “Let go, massa.’ A hasty glance around the room assured me : that I had played ‘the divil,’ and committed some ■rrible breach of etiquette. I let go the waiter a- if it had been red hot, and, at that instant, would have been delighted to let go all bold on existence and all mundane appurtenances, and would have been willing, in the bargain, to have signed a deed of relinquishment to everything 1 expected the old man, my father, would bequeath me, for the happy privilege of ‘shuffling off' this mortal coil’ on the spot. 1 fell back into my seat, feeling worse than any criminal. But my trials had not yet ended —the internal servaut again ap proached me; again I was at a loss to divine what he wanted me to do ; a moment ago, it was clear that he did not desire my assistance ill supporting the waiter of plates ; now, it occurred to me, as no one else came forward to relieve him, lie had changed his mind, and had concluded to accept ’aid and comfort’ from me, whom he had honored by such flattering preference, on first entering the room, as to single out as his first-assistant-waiter holder iu ordinary. “Just as I was reaching out my hand to clutch the waiter again, I overheard angel Angelina say ■■> that dandy, B )b Sutton, whom I intend to whip if 1 ever catch hint out of Mobile, ‘Pray, d-,ir, Mr. Sutton, don't move or sav a word, but wait and only see what if will do next.’ At the moment these words conveyed no meaning to my mind, as the servant was just then making a communica tion to me of ah interesting character. In obe dience to bis instructions, l nervous!v took an empty plate from the waiter. The other guests likewise helped themselves to eniptv plates. Briskly on the heels of the first servant came another, whose waiter was covered with eniptv cups and saucers. H,-, also, made a break at me first. 1 began to feel that 1 knew all about mut ters. With commendable t'rnJ 1 provided myself with an empty cup and saucer ; the other guests ditto. 1 saw another waiter with eatables and another with drinkables approaching, and having both hands entitelv occupied, one in hold ing my plate, and the other my cup and saucer, 1 began to discern breakers in the distance. As I had but two hands, and thev both engaged, it was demonstrated that if 1 got anything to eat or dr.uk, sombody would have to help me, and ouce helped, if I got anything in my mouth besides the tea, s a rbjdtf would have to put it there. The uipsof darkness came to me as usual, first. Have some tea, Mr. Bnsson? His hands were hath required to sustain the waiter ; mine, to sup port my plate, cup aud saucer. I really wantet i>oiu« n>», b u t t,j get it was manifestly out of tin uiwetion, so I answered, | “ No, I thank you, wouldn’t choose any.” “Do take some tea t ” urged Mrs. General Jones i from the other side of the room ; “you’ll find it ; very nice, Mr. Brisson.” “No, I thank you, mam,” says I, seeing no pos sible way to get myself helped’ if [ said yes; “ I : am not fond of tea;’’ which was as big a lie as ever was told, but what was a feilow to do ? The tea passed along, and next came a waiter • groaning under a bountiful supply of cold turkey j cold ham, chipped venison, cakes, Ac. Although I I was very hungry, I inwardly prat ed to be skip ped—that this cup might pass. But no, the waiter j stops before me. 1 felt a nervous jerking and twitching all over, as 1 replied to an invitation to ' myself: “ No, I thank you—wouldn't choose anv.” “ Why, Mr. Brisson,” said the ladv of the house ’ i not suspecting the cause of my refusal, “are voii ! ; unwell V j “ No, mam,” 1 faintly stammered out, “ I never I j was in better health.” * | * insist, then, on your taking some of ; "’ild turkey ; it is very delicate. 99 “ Don’t doubt it, mam,’ 5 savs I, “ but I wouldn’t ! : choose any.” i All this time the waiter remained in front of me, ; , the other guests looking, wondering, and Availing. ■ My presence of mind, like Bob Acres’ courage, j J was last oozing out at my fingers’ ends ; a film was ! forming over my eyes. “General," said Mrs. General Jones, “ I declare i I 1 believe there is something ihe matter with Mr. j | Brisson. These Averc tho last words I heard at that tea j party. My brain avhs on fire, my head reeled, and springing like a Avild panther forward, I upset the : servant Avith the tea service, sent plates spinning | in every direction, performed feats of agilitv that I would have astounded Gabriel Raphael, made mv ! exit, God knows hoiv, and never* recovered cou- I sciousness until I found myself on the back of mv ! favorite hunter, many miles on my way home. This was uiy first introduction to, atid, God , granting, will be mv last acquaintance with, hand ; armtnd-i'ippers. Congressional. THIRTT-FOrRTH CONGRESS—FIRST SESSION. Washington, June 11.—Senate.— Mr. Bright 1 having returned, Mr. Stuart resigned the offiice of ] I’resident pro tern., and Mr. Bright Avas again elected. . Ttie Chair laid before the Senate the resolutions ) of the Common wealth of Massachusetts in refer- I ence to the assault on Mr. Sumner. They Avere ! read. Mr. Butler said they contained a foregoue i conclusion, because they pronounced judgment ; before the subject has been investigated, and he , called it an insulting mockery for a legislature to ask the Senate to investigate a matter after they ! had pronounced judgment upon it. lie would say no more now, but would more the resolutions be laid on the table and printed I —agreed to. Mr. Crittenden moved to take up the resolution ' offered by him yesterday requesting the President, : in view of the in Kansas, and j the employment of a military force for the restora ! lion of law and peace and harmony there, to send I Gen. Scott to take command of those forces. Mr. \ ulee expressed the hope that the motion i Avould not prevail, the Senate being so ihinlv at tended. Mr. Clayton anticipated much benefit from the resolution. The sending of General Scott to Kan sas must have the effect off calming the public mind. Mr. Brown opposed the motion, believing that it would be an interference by the Senate Avith the Executive function- to advise the President as the resolution proposed; besides, lie could not sec such a state of things in Kansas us to call for the extra ordinary proceeding contemplated. Mr. Bell, of Tennessee, asked Mr. Brown wheth er he did not credit the reports from both sides daily received regarding the affairs of Kansas. No Senator could doubt that affairs iti that quarter demanded immediate attention. Mr. Brown said that to a very limited extent lie credited the telegraphic reports in relation to the disturbances in Kansas ; but he believed that the greater portion of them were manufactured for the occasion. It had been so heretofore, and was very likely to be so now. He Avas uot prepared to cast censure upon the course of the President ; but the adoption of the resolution lA'ould be understood bv the country us an expression of the opinion of the Senate that ihe President has not performed his duty as he ought to ha\'o done. Mr. Toucey knew of no poiver in this bodA’ to aet in the manner proposed, more than would be possessed by an equal number of citizens assem bled in any portion of the country. If Gen. Scott should be sent, what would he do there ? We live under a government of luav ; and if luav is resisted the administrative officers have the poAver to call oui a posse comitatus to aid in the enforcement of the luav. Was it supposed that Gen. Scott avias to ! act in subordination of the sheriff as one of the - posse comitatus ? If that was the object he did j not approve of it, because it Avas calling upon the j highest officer in the army to go there and perform a very subordinate duty iu aiding the sheriff to I make arrests and bring criminals before the courts | of justice. But unless that was the object, if could ‘ only be that appeal was to he taken from the courts j of justice to the military power. If a case of that kind should arise under the | Constitution and laws of Congress there amis ample i provision ; but the military power could only be j employed in case of actual insurrecti in or rebel- . lion, when there Avas a combined resistance to law. ! But how many insurgents were now in arms against the government? He did not belipve it would come to that. Let there be obedience to law and all difficulty would cease, lie objected to the resolution because it avhs out of the ordinary course for the Senate to tender advice to the Pre sident upon a matter exclusively aa itiiin his juris diction. Mr. Adams remarked that the President hud power to recommend to Congress the enactment of such laws as lie might think desirable, but he could find no |lower by which Congress could re commend to the President how he should perform his duties. Mr. Mallory was opposed to taking up the reso- | Union, anti should vote against it in any form. Il ! implied an indictment on the course of the l’resi- j dent, and an indictmenton the course of the officers i in command of the military forces there now. He thought that if Congress should cease debating on 1 the subject of Kansas affairs, all excitement Avould j soon be allayed, and there would be no difficulty ; in restoring quiet in Kansas. Mr. Crittenden Avas not a little surprised at the j I opposition Avhicli had been so unexpectedly raani i tested to the resolution. He had hoped for a dif ferent result. It aa'iis proposed in the utmost sim plicity of purpose as a means by which the anar i chv and bloodshed, now prevailing in Kansas, : might probably be suppressed and ended. The ‘ proposition could do barm and might do good. It is vita- easy for gentlemen to say that if all would j I obev the laws, there ivoitld be no trouble ; but the j i point was that in consequence of the frailty of hit- j 1 man nature there ivas always someivho ivould not . . vield a willing obedience to the laivs. The rente- | dy ivas not adequate to the disease. Ts all ivould i obev the law s there would be no need of courts, j | judges, sheriffs or jails. But it ivas well knoivn ; that there were those who did not admit that these j laws ivere of such a character as to demand their | obedience. It was contended that they ivere fraud- j ulentlv made, and therefore invalid. Hence the i propriety of approaching the subject in a. calm j an 1 temperate manner, so that these difficulties might be settled in the best manner. Sir. Mallory did not ivish to interfere in any manner w ith the duties which especially belonged to the Executive. Unless the Senate believed that the President had not done bis duty, they ought not to meddle with the matter. Mr. Mason believed that everything liad been done w hich the occasion called for, and w hich pro . priety would allow, to bring the unfortunate state 1 of things in Kansas to afi end. Mt. Seward believed that peace ivould not be | secured in Kansas until the people should enjoy , the full and ample rights of citizenship enjoyed by i the people of the organized States. ' * ! Mr. Reid argued to show- that no good could re ( suit by sending Gen. Scott to Kansas. ’ The Senate, ivitnout concluding the subject ad -1 . journed. f Horse.—The Speaker laid before the House a 1 message from the President, in reply to a resolu tion for any information regarding*the action of ' the leadimr powers of Europe relative to priva teering and 'the proceedings of the late Paris 1 Conference therein, saying that no information of * that character had been officially communicated to ’ this government. The House, after in vain endeavoring to procure 1 a working majority, adjourned at an early hour. Death of Col. Hugh N. Crawford.—lt is with feelings of deep regret that we learn the death of Col. Hugh X. Crawford, of Montgomery, on the 27th nit., at Goldsborougli, X. C. He lind been in feeble health for some time, and lefi here, in company with a brother, for the Vir- | giuia Springs. His extreme feebleness caused him ; to remain at Goldsborough, where he died. Col.

Stuart. ’ » f -» [COPT. | Philadelphia, Feb. 26th, 1856. j To the Hon. Millard Fillmore: Sir: The National Convention of the American 1 party, tvhich has just closed its session in this ! city, has unanimously chosen you as the candidate for the Presidency of tiie Lnited States in the , election to be held in November next. It has as , sociated with you Andreiv Jackson Donelson, i Esq., nf Tennessee, as the candidate for the Vice 1 Presidency. | The Convention has charged the undersigned with the agreeable duty of communicating these | proceedings to yon, and* of asking your acceptance of a nomination which ivill receive not only the i cordial support of the great national party in . whose name it is made, but the approbation also \ of large numbers of other enlightened friends of • the Constitution and the Union, ivlto ivill rejoice i in the opportunity to testify their grateful appre- i i ciation of vour faithful service in the past, and i j their confidence in your experience and integrity j for the guidance of the future. The undersigned take advantage of this occasion j 1 to tender to you the expression of their own grati- : tication in the proceedings of the Convention, and , to assure you of the high consideration ivith which | they are yours, Ac. Alexander H. H. Stuart, Andreav Steavart, Erast us Brooks, E. B. Bartlett, William J. Eames, Ephraim Marsh, Committee, Ac., Ac. Paris, May 21st, 185 C. Gentlemen : I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter informing me that the National Convention of the American party which had just closed its session at Philadelphia, had unanimously presented my name for the Presiden cy of the United States, and associated with it that of Andreiv Jackson Donelson for the V ice Presidency. This unexpected communication met me at Venice on my return from Italy, and the duplicate mailed thirteen days later, ivas receii'ed on my urrii al in this city last evening. This must account for myUppurent neglect in giving a more prompt reply. You ivill pardon me for saving that when my administration closed in 1853, I considered mv po litical life as a public man at an end, and thence forth I w as only anxious to discharge my duty as a private citizen. Hence I have taken no active part in politics. But 1 have by no means been an in different spectator of passing events, nor 1 hesitated to express mv opinion on all political subjects when asked, nor to give my vote and pri vate influence for those men and measures I thought best calculated to promote the prosperity and glory of our common country. Beyond this I deemed it improper for me to interfere. But this unsolicited and unexpected nomination has im posed upon me a neiv duty, from ivliich I cunnot shrink; and therefore, approving, as l do, of the general objects of the party w hich has honored me with its confidence, 1 cheerfully accept its nomina tion without waiting to enquire of its prospects of success or defeat. It is sufficient for me to know that by so doing I yield to the wishes of a large portion of my fellow-citizens in every part of the Union ivho, like myself, are sincerely anxious to see the administration of our government restored to that original simplicity and purity which mark ed the first years of its existence ; and if possible, to quiet that alarming sectional agitation, whieh, ivhile it delights the Monarchists of Europe, causes every true friend of our own country to mourn. Having the experience of past service in the ad ministration of the Government, 1 may be permit ted to refer to that as the exponent of the future, and to say, should the choice of the Convention be sanctioned by the people, 1 shall w ith the same scrupulous regard for the rights of every section of the l nion w hich then influenced mv conduct, en deavor to perform every duty confided by the Con stitution and laws to the Executive. As the proceedings of this Convention have marked a neiv era in the history of the country, bv bringing a new political organization into the ap proaching Presidential canvass, 1 take the occa sion to reaffirm my full confidence in the patriotic purposes of that organization, which 1 regard as springing out of a public necessity, forced upon the country, to a large extent, hi u it.irtunate sectional divisions, and the dangerous tendency of those divisions towards disuni -n 1 done, in mv opin ion, of all the political agencies now existing, is possessed of the power to silence this violent and disastrous agitation, and to restore harmony by its own example of moderation and forbearance. It has a claim, therefore, in my judgment, upon every eat nest friend of the integrity of the Union. So estimating this party, both in its present po sition and future destiny, 1 freely adopt its great leading principles as announced in the recent de claration of the National Council at Philadelphia, a copy of w hich you ivere so kind as to enclose me, holding them to be just and liberal to every true interest of the country, and iviscly adapted to the establishment and support of an enlightened, safe and effective American policy, in full accord w ith the ideas and the hopes of the fathers of our j Republic. I expect shortly to sail lor America, and, with the blessings of Divine Providence, hope soon to tread mv native soil. Mv opportunity of compar ing mv own country and the condition of its peo ple with those of Europe, has only sci veil to in crease my admiration and love for our own blessed land of liberty, and 1 shall return to it w ithout even a desire ever to cross the Atlantic again. ; I beg of you, gentlemen, to accept my thanks j for the very flattering manner in which you have been pleased to communicate the results of the action of that enlightened and patriotic body of men who composed the late Convention, and to be assured that 1 am, with profound respect and esteem. Your friend and fellow citizen, Millard Fillmore. Messrs. Alexander 11. IL Stuart, Andrew Stewart, Erast us Brooks, E. B. Bartlett, Win. Fames, Ephraim Marsh, Committee.

DISEASE OF THE STOMACH—ITS CONSEQUENCE! ■fcISEASE of the Stomach cannot long exist S S' without involving, sooner or later, other or gans of the body. A knowledge of this fact is of the' utmost importance to the physician, as well also to the patient. Ilow this extension of disease from the stomach to other organs takes place the , principle upon which it proceeds—the symptoms exhibited in the course of its extension, are of the first importance in the guidance towards philosoph ical treatment. Ignorance, as regards these points, has been and is daily being the source of the most dangerous treatment, and the very treatment which is the cause of myriads of uncured cases, worn out and debilitated constitutions, and of those long train of morbid symptoms which attend too many patients through life, known and called “general disease ’’ a term, however, without any meaning, from the fact that there is no such state of system as “general disease,” as will endeavored to he shown in mvadvertisement of next week. Chronic disease of the stomach produces disease in other organs through the agency of the nervous system ; the disturbance or irritation created by diseased points in the stomach, is carried along tin nerves to some near organ with which it has a nerve communication, and the disease there set up is said to be a sympathetic disease, or the organ is said to be secondarily affected. As an instance of this sympathy, a person receiving a blow upon the head, the blow is followed almost immediately bv | vomiting the stomach sympathises with the"dis- ! turbed or irritated brain. Again, any indigestible matter taken upon the stomach produces headache j —in this ease, the brain sympathises with the sto- I loach. This extension of disease, which takes place j along or through these nerves is either oceasional | or rmaiant, and the frequent repetition of the j former produces the latter for instance. Dyspep sia, or a small point of Inflammatory action of the stomach, produces headache, dizziness, sleepless ness, fullness of the blood vessels of the brain, flushed face, &e. These morbid symptoms will continue for a longer or shorter period, die awnv, and disappear, and after a little time recur again— hence the term oeeoskmai. The intervals between these recurrences become less and less distinct, un til at last the brain becomes permanently involved, and insanity, apoplectic or paralytic congestion, imbecility and death is the result -hence filename j p> rmaw nt. And here I would take occasion to advert to the i verv great importance of attending in time to these j primary initiatory symptoms of diseased stomach, i which are set up as u warning, speaking plainly j and forcibly to the patient that unless a correct and proper’treatment boat once instituted, no mat- ; ter of liow mild a form they may sit first appear, j there is imminent danger of the brain or some oth- ; cr vital organ becoming permanently involved. | These early symptoms are too frequently overlook ed or regarded as some trilling disease that will : very soon pass otl, and thus the patient lives on, j taking no thought of the increasing frequency or I vehemence of these “ trilling complaints ” arising i from disease of the stomach, until at last, other and ! important organs, the brain, perhaps, or the lungs, i or the heart, or liver, or some other organ have be- j come almost immediately involved. Then it Is that 1 the patient, upon reflection, finds that his disease has long been creeping upon him, gaining, almost ! imperceptably in intensity, until some new phase i of the disease suddenly awakens him to notions of ; his true situation. His friends, perhaps, discover I that his “mind is not exactly right,” that his ! “brain is diseased,” and oft" the poor patient is 1 hurried to a mad-house, there to be treated with j the straight jacket, blisters to the shaven scalp, | Ac., and no thought perhaps taken by the medical attendant, or treatment instituted for Xhofirst great j ! cause and the continuance of all this trouble, viz ; | DISEASE OF TIIE STOMACH. Perhaps, instead of terminating in insanity, a I very di flu rent phenomenon is exhibited ; the sttrg- j ing ot'the blood towards the brain produces at last I a palsy of a limb from partial pressure of the brain, or a palsy of the entire locomotion from the pres sure of blood on the back portion of the brain, and the poor patient is obliged, perhaps, to submit to the blood-disgorging operation of the lancet, a shaved and blistered seal]), burnt and blistered hack-bone, stimulating and burning embrocations, with very little or no good, and probably with no thought on the part of the attending physician of the tirst great cause and the continuance of the dis ease, viz: Disease of the Stomach. Perhaps, instead ot either of the above tennina j tious, a very much less serious result is the conse | quence—perhaps merely a pain in the shoulder or | head, and Tic 1 toloureii < of the face ; and for this J Tic Doloureux, the poor patient must down with j the calomel, iron, arsenic, Ac., to be tormented i with burning blisters, setons, and the like—the at- I tending physician regarding it, perhaps, as a sim- I plv local affection, entirely losing sight of the fact that the lining membrane of the stomach and liver ! is one continuous membrane, of the first great j cause and continuance of these pains, viz: Disease | of the Stomach, propagating disease in the liver, and the liver in its turn extending its irritation, and producing pain in the shoulder, head and face. I flow frequently has “ pain in the right shoulder” ! been looked upon, named and treated as a case of “liver disease, “inaction of the liver,” (vague and unmeaning terms,) and in a great majoritv of cases without any benefit accruing from the treat ment ; and with how much more success might ; these so-called “liver diseases " have been treated . i had the true pathology of the ease—the true cause > i of the disease, in tact, the disease, been properly un ! derstood—if they had been regarded as the conse quence of disease of the stomach, producing mor bid action in the liver, and the latter in its turn sending its irritation to the shoulder, face and head. Perhaps, instead of either of the above termina tions taking place, a much more common one ex hibits itself, viz; a disease of the lungs. There is no so common an occurrence as disease of the lungs being produced by disease of the stomach, in fact, disease of ihe stomach cannot long exist with out producing disease of the lungs, and there never was a case of diseased lungs but that was produced by disease of the digestive organs. The disease called Pulmonary Consumption has its origin in disease of the stomach, and from no other source. From the verv close nerve connection between the stomach and the lungs, the latter is a constant re cipient of all irritation from the stomach, which tends to the formation of tubercles, the commence ment of Pulmonary Consumption —first, by not only inducing a diseased state of the air tubes, hut also bv setting up a sympathetic irritation in the spongy tissue of the lung ; and secondly, by pro ducing a morbid state of the blood in consequence of imperfect digestion of food by the inflamed sto mach. This idea, lam well aware, as regards the cause of Consumption, is at variance with the great mass of the wise heads of the profession, but it does not make it any the less true. There are as wise heads as any in the profession who have pro mulgated the doctrine for years, and years ago was 1 satisfied, from mv own observation, that Con sumption had its origin in disease of the stomach, and too not in a few isolated cases, but in every instance, and I defy any physician to point to a case of Pulmonary Consumption that, upon close inquiry and minute examination, it could not bo found, and beyond a doubt, that the patient had , been previously laboring under diseased digestive organs. There is no disease so much dreaded, or looked upon with so much horror, as Consumption. All sorts of “specifics” have been invented for its cure; every conceivable combination of drum al most have been compounded, and the poor sufferer sent to almost every corner of the habitable globe for relief, but all to but very little purpose. Phy- | sicians take charge of such cases with great hesita tion and doubt, and the patient now looks only for temporary and insignificant relief. And why is i this? Why all this misery and suffering—all this j medical labor in vain? Simply from misconcep- * tion as regards the true cause of disease, viz: Dis- j ease of the Digestive Organs. Consumption is as capable of being cured as al most any other disease, when not too far advanced —when the lungs are not too much consumed. It is impossible to create new lungs, or to make them grow out again and occupy the place of the lung j that has been destroyed and annihilated by ulcera tion, suppuration and expectoration ; but when sufficient of the lung remains for the purposes of their office, not only further destruction may be remedied, but an entirely healthy action of the re maining portion of the lung may be brought about. Facts of cases of Pulmonary Consumption having been cured, and the subject afterwards living to j good old age, has been too often shown by post ; mortem examination, to admit now-a-days of a j single doubt. But rest assured this end is’not at- i tained by “docteriug” the lungs and bavin*? no j regard to other diseased organs. No, no, for by : prescribing for the lungs, most valuable time is j being lost, and without benefitting the patient one ; particle, for the effect is being “doctored” instead j of the cause; but to strike at the root of the evil, i and to strike effectively, go at once to the stomach, ! and there will you find the cause and the oat;/ cause of all this trouble, and only by removing this can the patient have any hope of recovery. To talk ; about curing Consumption by applying remedies to the lungs and taking no thought or instituting no treatment for other diseased parts of the system is all nonsense, and the height of empyricism. No patient was ever cured nor ever will he bv such prescriptions. Look well to the stomach—search there for diseased action l and you will always find aplenty of it.) and a treatment, map he instituted with no little hope of success a treatment may he instituted that will, in a great majority of cases, I cure the patient, providing, of course, the lungs are not too much consumed. To conclude this already too long advertisement, I will remark, that there are thousands of Clergy- , men throughout the United States troubled with ! that very common disease, known as “ Clergy man’s sore throat,” and probably not ono in one ' hundred knows the true cause of their disease; i perhaps from the fact of it never having been prop ' et lv explained to them by their physician, and pos- | sibl v also from their physician taking a wrong view as icgards its true cause. Out of hundreds of eases ! that have fallen under my observation, there has ' been no single instance that it was not very readily traceable to disease of the digestive organs. Front the fact of the mucus membrane of the air-tubes i being a constant recipient of irritation having its j origin in diseased digestive organs, these air-tubes j take on an extreme sensitiveness, which produces a large amount of morbid secretion, and renders : the patient exceedingly susceptible to changes in ! the temperature, causing him to he continually sub- j jectfo “ fresh colds ” and “coughs,” the frequent repetition of which induces that chronic intlamma- ’ tion of the air-tubes known as “Bronchitis” and “Clergymen’s Sore Throat.” In conclusion —to all invalids let me say, that if 1 have made mention above of the disease with which you are afflicted, rest assured, it is folly for you to hope for either a permanent or speedy cure i unless attention is had to the digestive organs, for : there you will find not only the fust great cans, of your ailment, but the cause also of the continuance of your malady ; and 1 would respectfully call your i attention to the merits of my Remedy, known as “Bliss’ Dyspeptic Remedy”—a medicine that I have made use of exclusively in the treatment of the above mentioned diseases for years in my pri vate practice, and always with the happiest results. If taken closely, according to directions, it will not fail to cure any case of Dyspepsia or disease of the Stomach, and all other diseases having their origin j in that diseased organ. I shall, in future advertisements, make mention of other diseases that have their origin in disease "of the stomach, and which can only be cured bv a j well directed treatment to that organ alone. W.

The Empire State of the South still ahead in her Improvements. TUI 18 article compare favora- bly with any of like character in the known world. I find that by putting it in the form jfSflMi of a Soap it gives it a decided advan- Sspll tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment, or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir tues from being impaired by age or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contain no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles’ Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac., extract scurf and dandruff from the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. It is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure the F’istula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dentrifice to the teeth. For'shaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening Hie beard, and’ curing such sores as may be on the face. In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, anil wishing to avoid everything like humbuggerv, 1 leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not doubting they will then declare this to be the/i? plus ultra of the age in the healing art.
