Having for the last thirty-five vears devoted my whole time and attention to tlie studv of lung diseases and consumption, I feel that I un derstand fully the course that ought to be pur sued to restore a tolerably had case of diseased lungs to healthy soundness. The first and niot t important step is for the patient to avoid taking cold; and the best of all [daces on this continei.'t for tins purpose in winter, is Florida, well down iu the State, where the temperature is regular, and not subject to such variations as in more Northern latitudes. Palatka is anoint I can re commend. A good hotel is kept there by Petef man. Last winter I saw several there whose lungs had been badly diseased, but who, under the healing influence of the climate and my medicines, were getting well. One hundred miles further down the river is a point which I would prefer to Palatka, as the temperature is more even and the air dry and bracing. Mellonville and Enterprise are'loca ted there. I should give a decided preference to Mellonville. It is two miles from river or lake, and it seems almost impossible to take cold there. The tables in Florida might be better, and pa tients complain at times but that is a good sigr , as it indicates a return of appetite, and when this is the case they generally increase iu llesli, and then the lungs must heal* Jacksonville, lliberuia, Green Cove, and mam other places in various parts of Florida, can be safely recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for saying so are that patients arc less liable to take cold there than where there is a less even temperature, and it is not necessary to say that where a consumptive person exposes himself to freouent colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore my advice is, go well down into the State out of reach of the prevailing east winds and fogs. .Jacksonville, or almost any other of the localities I have named, will benef t those who are troubled with a torpid liver, a dis - ordered stomach, deranged bowels, sore tliros.t or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased a more southern point is earnestly recommend ed. For fifteen years prior to 1869, T was profes sionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia every week, where I saw and e> - anuned on an average five hundred patients a week. A practice so extensive, embracing ei ery possible phase of lung disease, lias enabled me to understand tlie disease fullv, and lienee, my caution in regard to taking cold. Y person may take vast quantities of “Schenck 's Pulmonic Syrup, Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,” and yet die if he does not avoid taking cold. 0 In Florida, nearly every bodv is using schenck’s Mandrake Pills, for the climate s more likely to produce billions habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fact that natives of Florida rarely die of consump tion, especially those of the southern part. On the other hand, in New England, one third, ?t least, of the population die of this terrible dis ease. In the Middle States it does not prevail so largely, still there are many thousands of ca ses there. What, a vast percentage of life wou 1 be saved if consumptives were as easily alarm ed in regard to taking fresh cold as thev are about scarlet fever, small pox, Ac. But they are not. They take what they term a little cold, which they are credulous enough to believe will wear off in a few days. They pay no attention to it, and hence it lays the foundation for anoth er and another still, until tlie lungs are diseased boxond all hope for cure. My advice to persons whose lungs are affected even slightly is, to lay in a stock of Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup, Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic and Schenck’s Mandrake Pills and go to Florida. I recommend these particular medicines becaue I am thoroughly acquainted with their action. I know that where they are used in strict accord ance with my directions they will do the work that is required. This accomplished, nature will do the rest. The physician who prescribes for cold, cough ov night-sweats, and then advises the patient to walk or ride out every dav, will be sure to have a corpse on his hands before long. Mv plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac cordance with the printed directions, exeeot in some cases where a freer use of ;lie Mandrak e Pills is necessary. My object is to give tone t:o the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is al ways a good sign when a patient begins to grow hungry. I have hopes of such. With a relish tor food and the gratification of that relish comes good blood, and with it more (lesli, which isclose ly followed, by a healing of the lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, tlie creeping chills and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate and anno}-, and the patient gets well, provided je avoids taking cold. Now there are many consumptive who have net the means to go to Florida. The question may be asked, is there no hope for such? Cer tainly there is. My advice to such is, and ever has been, to stay in a warm room during winter, with a temperature of about seventy degrees, which should be kept regularly at that point, by means ol a thermometer. Let such a patient take his exercise within the limits of the room by walking up and down as much as his strength will permit, in order to keep up a healthy circu lation of the blood. I have cured thousands by tins sy stem, and can do so again. Consumption is as easily cured as any other disease if it is ta ken in time, anil the proper kind of treatment is pursued. The fact stands undisputed on record that Schenck s.Pulmonic Syrup, Mandrake Pills, ‘ end Seaweed Tome have cured very many of what seemed to be hopeless cases or consnnip , 8 n - *2° Y'bere you will, you will be almost cer tain to find some poor consumptive who has been rescured from the very jaws of death by their So far as the Mandrake Pills are concerned, every keep a supply of them on hand. 1 hey act on the liver better than calomel, and leave none of its hurtful effects behind. In fact they are excellent in all cases where a purgative medicine is required. If you have partaken too freel v of fruit and diarrhoea ensues, a dose of the Mandrakes will cure you. If you are subject to sick headache, take a dose of the Mandrakes and they w ill relieve you in two hours. If you would obviate the effect of a change of water, or the too ace indulgence in fruit, take one of the Mandrakes every night or every other night, and you may then drink water and eat watermc 1- lons, pears, apples, plums, peeches or corn, with out the risk ot being mjide sick by them will protect those who live in dump .situation's against chills and fevers.

But r desire it distinctly understood that the medicines do pends upon tlicir being taken strictly according to directions. ° In eonclusion, I will say thnt whon persons take my medicines and their systems are brought Into a healthy condition thereby they are not so liable to take cold, yet no oiie with diseased lungs can boar a sudden change <if at mosphere without the liability of greater or less irritation ol the bronchial tubes, Full directions in all languages accompany my medicines, so explicit and clear that anv one can use them without consulting mts am { be bought from any druggist. ’ J.

We start iu life an unbroken com pany; brothers and sisters, friends and lovers, neighbors and comrades, are wii bus; there is circle within circle, «ud each one of us is at the charmed centre where the heart’s affections are aglow, ami whence they radiate outward up on society. Youth is exuberant with joy and hope, the earth looks fair, for it sparkles with May dews yet, and no shadow hath fallen upon it. We are all herp, and we could live forever.— The home centre is on the hither side of the river, and why should we strain our eyes to look beyond! lint this state of things does not continue long. Our circle grows less and less. It is broken, and then closes up agaiu; but every break and close makes it nar rower and smaller. Perhaps before the sun is at his meridian the majority is on the other side; the circle there is us large as the one here, and we are drawn contrariwise, and vibrate be tween the two. A little longer, and we have almost crossed over; the bal ance settles down on the spiritual side, and the home centre is removed to the .upper sphere. At length, yqu see nothing but an aged pilgrim standing alone on the river’s brink, and looking earnestly at the country on the other side. In toe morning, that large and goodly company, rejoicing together With music and wine; in the evening, dwindled down to that solitary old man, the last of his family, and toe last of his generation, wailing to go home, and filler! with pensive memories of the loi.g ago ! Exchange. Poulticing the Wrong Man. At Long Branch, a few rights since, a Mr. Smith was suddenly seized in bed with an excruciating pain in the stomach, which neither brandy, No. G, nor any other remedy could remove. — His wife, after trying a number of things iu vain, and exhausted all her stock of remedies, left her husband’s be ; 6ide for the purpose of] getting a warm application. Guided, on her re turn, by a light w hich was shining in a chamber, and which she supposed was in her own and her husband’s room, she was not a little surprised to find her patient apparently in a deep slum ber. However, thinking that he might stiil be suffering, she gently raised the bedclothes, etc., and laid the scalding poultice on a stomach—but not her husband’s—W’hich no sooner touched the body of the person, than he, great ly alarmed, w’rithing under the burn ing application, shouted; “Hallo! hallo! what in the name of heaven and earth are you about out there ?” Then with one spring from his bed, he made for the door, and, rushing down stairs, declared in a fren zy of excitement that someone had poured a shovel of hot coals on lnm. The woman, overcome with excite ment and alarm, gave a frantic scream which brought her husband hurriedly in from the next room to her rescue.— Tlie husband was so much excited, and also so much amused wdth the singular mistake and the ridiculous position of liis better half, that he forgot all his pains; but early next morning he, Lis wife and trunks left for parts unknown. The poulticed man still carries his stomach in a sling, and takes particu lar pains to lock his door when he re tires. Physiological Filed* of Alcohol. The effects of alcohol upon the healthy human body has been recent ly carefully observed by Drs. Parkes and Wolloitz, of the British army.— One or two fluid ounces of the stimu lant *,er day increased the appetite; while four or more ounces sensibly diminished it, the effect being more marked with brandy than with rectifi ed spirits. Digestion, was, however, not impeded, nor the temperature low ered ; but there were strong feelings of warmth in the stomach, face, Ac., is it not clear that the temperature was increased. No direct effect upon the nervous system was shown by the elim ination of phosphoric acid, caused by the action of the brain; but the phys ical state of the body changed with the size of the dose, narcotism being strongly developed when the first very small amounts were exceeded. The effect upon the heart was extraordina ry. The experiments extended over a period of twenty-six days; and during eight of them, when water alone was drank, the heart-beats averaged per day 106,000: with alcohol, in Uie six following, they were 127,000, and with brandy they subsequently reached 131,000. r ihe daily work of Urn heart is about one hundred and twenty-two •tons lifted on foot (or 122 foot-tons*); its extra woik was in the alcoholic pe riod 15.8 footmens ] er day, and in the brandy period 24 foot-tons. In clos ing, the observeiegive it as their opin ion that the loss ol appetite, the great rapidity in the h< all’s beats, and . the narcotism are “all owing to nervous implications,”.and add 4 we were hard ly prepared for the ease with which the appetite may be destroyed and the heart unduly excited.” A Dreadful Punishment.— The age of miracles evidently has not ceased. .A man went into a revival meeting in Lyonvitfe, 111., a short time since, and was making fun of the penitents, when he fell to the floor, and was carried out in an insensible condition. A few clays after he attempted to renew' his spurt in the Sune place, when he was stricken with pinaly.vis, and at last ac c< unis, he had no use of tongue or limbo. r - - The Tiger, Brahmin and Pox. A tiger, prowling in a Hindoo forest, ' was attracted by n bleating calf. It proved to be a bait, and thfe tiger found himself trapped in a springing©. 1 There he lay for two days, when a Brahmin 'happened that way. “Oh ! Brahmin !” piteously cried the beast, “have mercy upon me and let me ont of this cage.” “Ah ! but you will eat me.” 1 “Eat you! devour my benefactor! ! never could I be guilty of such a deed,” responded the tiger. ! The Brahmin being benevolently in ! dined, was moved by these entreaties, I and opened the door of the cage. The I tiger walked up to him, waived his tail, and said, “Brahmin, prepare to die; I shall now eat you.” “Oh ! how ungrateful! how wicked ! Am I not your saviour V” protested the | trembling priest “True,” said the tiger; "very true; but it is the custom of my race to eat men when we get c chance, and I can j not afford to let you go.” “Let us submit the case to an arbi trator,” replied the Brahmin, “here comes a fox; the fox is wise; let us abide by his judgment.” “Very well,” agreed the tiger.” The fox assumed a judicial aspect, sat on his haunches with all the digni ty he could master, and looking at the disputants, said, “Good friends, I am somewhat confused by the different accounts which you gi\e of this mat ter; my miud is not clear enough to render an equitable jndgmo nt, but if you will be good enough to act the whole transaction out before my eyes, I shall attain unto a more definite con ception of the case. Do you, Mr. Ti ger, show me just how you approach ed and entered the cage; and tiion do you, Mr. Brahmin, show me precisely how' you liberated him, and I shall be üble to render a proper decision.” They assented, for the fox was sol emn and oracular. Tne tiger walked iuto the cage. The spring- door fell and shut him in. He was a prisoner inside. The judicial expression faded from the fox’ countenance, and, turn ing to tlie Brahmin, he said, “Now you are %ll right, silly Brahmin; I advise you to go home as fast as you can, and to abstain in future from doing fa vors to rascally tigers. Goid morn ing, Brahmin, good morning tiger.” Daniel Webster—An Incident Many years ago, when Daniel Webster stood at the summit of his command ing influence* upon a certam Sabbath he entered a small Methodu t church iu the vicinity of Washington. The number of persona in attendance was few', and the house and furniture waa of a very inferior description. The preacher was a plain, unlettered man, who had never enjoyed any advanta ges of ed cation, but who did possess a heart warmed by the glow and ex cellence of the Gospel. At the close of the service, as Mr. Webster was leaving the house, a clerk of one of the Departments who had been pres ent, accosted Mr. Webster and ex pressed regret that a man of his emi nence and extensive information should have been compelled to listen to so plain a discourse. “You mis take." replied Mr. Webster, “I have been deeply interested and moved by the sermon. As you say, the preacher has no learning from the books, but he has evidently been instructed by the highest of preachers—the Spirit of God. We go to church, sir, not mere ly to have our minds enlightened, but to have the emotions of the heart aw a keued and excited towards divine things. This ignorant man, us we call him, has attained a reach of knowl edge which no more learning can give. He has taught us our duty to God.— May we perform it 1” Ilow to Make Soap. The ashes should be put in the 'hop per’ or leach, a week or two before, slightly dampened, and about a peck of slacked lime added alternately with a barrel of ashes. When you begin to “run down” your lye do not put on water (soft water is best) only just sufficient to cause it to trickle slowly. Pill an iron kettle that will hold ten gallons about one-third full of the lyo, bring to a boil, and if it causes the beard of tee feat he r to separate readily from the stem it is strong enough; if not, boil till it will. Now add the grease (which should be nice and clean) till it begins to thicken; boil it one hour, and then taste by merely touching it to the tongue. If it causes the tongue to smart, it is too strong; add more grease. If if is too weak, add more lye, boil briskly, and stir all the time after the grease is put in. After boiling three or four hours, drop from the girddle a few drops in a pan of cold water. If it falls to the bottom in drops, and leaves *grease floating on the water, add mere lye and boil longer, until ty this test u grease floats. It is then done, and yon have soft soap. To make l ard soap of this, put about a pint of salt to three gallons of soft soap aud boil ti\l the salt is de solved. Then take two quaits of lye “that will bear an egg,” and one quart of soft water. Pour all in a kettle while boiliDg, stirring it well at the time. Let it stand until cold; cutoff tbe top, throw' the lye which remains in the bottom out, clean the kettle; put a pint of strong !ye in the kettle with your soap, boil till all igynelted; add about the same quantity of salt, lye and wafer as at the first boiling; sir well, let it cool thoroughly, thin cut ft- H.

A Humas Skull Fousd.— Yesterday while Loved Gray and Fletcher John son were out hunting ducks they found on the river hank, a few feet be low high water mark, partly imbedded iu the sand, the skull, aim and leg bones of a human being. The skr.lt was picked up and brought to the city. Medical men who examined it think it once belonged either to a negro or an Indian, aged about forty years or more. All of the upper teeth are in place and in excellent preservation, ex cept three front teeth, which were probably knocked out or fell out by decay. How it came there—whether by the washing away of a grave there or higher up, or whether the person owning it was murdered or drowned, of comse is a mystery. Be fliat ns it may, it is a sad reminder of mortality, and the inevitable destiny of all ties'll. If it could ngain be gifted with speech, i would doabth ss tell of f< ul play ei ther from the hand of a ft how or the unsympathetic waves of the restless Chattahoochee. It may be seen at the i dice of Dr. Stanford.— Enquirtr. Tire Heusou. We have been frequently asked if we knew why the liev. R. A. Holland left our church, and joined the Episco palians. We did not know, but could only surmise that he had grown quite too refined for so humble a people as the Methodist, and was no longer con tent to “take an appointment’ from a .Methodist Bishop—unless he conld first select one for lnmself, which we supposed he could not do. We are confirmed in our surmise by a letter written some time since to Dr. Cross, published in the tanner of the Church. “I have settled the controversy. I have formed the final decision. I must go hence. I cannot furry. It costs a fortune of friendships. Still I must leave. My views, my tastes, my whole character, have so changed, that I can- not work in harmony with the govern ment of the Methodist Church. My soul wants red., the rest of congenial activity. I see in your church, antiq uity, to excite reverence; authority, to quell the turbulence of doubt; dignity, to awe the mind that must have either the quietude of deference or the noise of wranglings; and a liturgy that helps devotion, that trains the wings of the soul to fly, that plants against the wail of Heaven a ladder on whoso rounds of prayi r and praise aspiration can climb step by step to a vision of the city all glorious with the light of God.”— Southern Christian Advocate Carrier Pigeons.— Although the sys tem of carrier pigeon postage came in to more marked prominence during the siege of Paris, 1 hese birds have a definite field of usefulness in various parts of Europe. For many centuries —as far back as the days of the Cru sades—the carrier pigeon has been nsed as a means of rapid communica tion throughout Europe. These pig eons are of a special kind. They are larger than the common house pig eons, and resemble greatly the wild pigeon in appearance. The love of home and tbe sharpness of the eye are the principle traits whereby the earn er pigeons may be trusted to make their long journeys through the air with safety. It is a noticeable fact in connection with these birds that when a well trained pigeon is once dispatch ed on its travels it knows no pause until it has finally reached its native c .e. It does not stop to dally, and hi st ances are on record wherein a pig eon, separated from its mate, after a brief interval of indecision, turned its back upon its cherished companion and sped towards home. Some varie ties of the carrier pigeon are better than others. Muck of their usefulness, also, depends upon their training. In Belgium the highest pitch of perfection is reached in the matter of the train ing of these birds. Pigeon-fancying is also a great feature of Holland, the Lower Rhine, and the northeast of France. An idea may be formed of the immense value of these birds du ring the investment of Pans when it is know n that it was an uncommon thing that a single pigeon should carry into the city twenty or thirty thousand dis patches flop friends outsits —tfie mes sages having been first reduced, by photography,' to microscopic dimen sions. Property of Confederates to ee Re stored.—Tbe Supieme Court of the United States lately rendered a. decis ion, in which the Court declared to bo null and void, certain legal proceedings taken before a court in Memphis in. 1803, while that city was in possession* of the U. S. troops, against one Thom as A. Nelson, a citizen of that piacp, but then a resident within the lines of the Confederate army. It was pronounced by Mr. Justice Bradley, ail the Judges concurring, except Chief Justice Chase, who was abst nt. It will be observed that by this de cision no sale of property, mortgaged or not mortgaged, belonging to absent Confederates made by virtue of a d< - cree of any court of tbe United States, conveyed any title to the purchaser thereof. All such sales and proceed ings are n\ul and void, provided he was a resident of the Confederacy amt adhered to the Confederate Stales Government, and thus unable to ap pear at his own defense.
