Having for the last thirtv-five years devoted my whole time and attention to' the study of lung diseases and consumption, I feel that fun derstand fully the course that ought to be pur sued to restore a tolerably bad case of diseased lungs to healthy soundness. The first and most important step is lor the patient to avoid taking cold, and the best of all places on this continent for this purpose in winter, is Florida, well down in the State, where the temperature is regular, and not subject to snch variations as in more Northern latitudes. Palatka is apoint I can re commend. A good hotel is kept there by Petef niiin. Last winter 1 saw several persons there whose luugs hail been badly diseased, but who, under the healing influence of the climate and my medicines, were getting well. Oue huudred 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. Mellon ville and Enterprise are'loca ted there, I shonld give a decided preference to Mellon ville. It is two miles from river or lake, and it seems almost impossible to take cold there. The tables in Florida might he better, and pa tients complain at times but that is a good sign, as it indicates a return of appetite, and when this is the ease they generally increase in flesh, and then the lungs must heal'. Jacksonville, Hibernia, Green Cove, and other places in various parts of Florida, can lie safely recommended to consumptives in winter. My reasons for saying so are that patients are less liable to take cold there than where there is a less even temperature, and it is not necessary to say that wdiere a consumptive person exposes himself to frequent colds he is certain to die shortly. Therefore my advice is, go well down into the State out of resell ot the prevailing east winds and fogs. Jacksonville, or almost any other of the localities 1 have named, will benefit those who are troubled with a torpid liver, a ding ordered stomach, deranged bowels, sore throa# or cough, but for those whose lungs are diseased a more southern point is earnestly recommend ed. For fifteen years prior to 1869, I was profes sionally in New York, Boston, Baltimore and Philadelphia every week, w here I saw and ex amined on au average five hundred patients a week. A practice so extensive, embracing ev ery possible phase of lung disease, has enabled no to understand the disease fully, and hence, my caution in regard to taking cold. A 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. In Florida, nearly every body is using Schenck’s Mandrake Pills, for the climate is more likely to produce blllious habits than more northern latitudes. It is a well established fact that natives of Florida rarely die of consumt tion, especially those of the southern part. On the other hand, in New England, one third, ut 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 woud be saved if consumptives were as easily alarm ed in regard to taking fresh cold as 'they are about scarlet fever, small pox, &c. But they are not. They take what t hey 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 lienee it lays the foundation for anoth er and another still, until the lungs are diseased beyond all hope for cure. My advice to persons whose Inngs are affected even slightly is. to lay in a stock of Schenck’s Puhnomc Syrup, Schenck’s Seaweed Tonic and Selienck’s Mandrake Pills and go to Florida. I recommend these particular medicines beeaue 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 eold. cough or night-sweats, and then advises the patient to walk or ride out everv day, will be sure to have a corpse on his hands before long. My plan is to give my three medicines’ in ac cordance with the printed directions, ext ent in some cases where a freer use of ;he Mandrake Tills is necessary. My object is to give tone to the stomach—to get up a good appetite. It is al ways a good sign wdien 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 flesh, which isclose ly followed by a healing of the lungs. Then the cough loosens and abates, the creeping chills and clammy night-sweats no longer prostrate and annoy, and the patient gets w ell, 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 sucnV Cer tainly there is. My advice to such is, an l ever lias been, to stay in a warm room during winter, with a temperature of about seventy degrees, which should be kept regularly at that .point, °‘ a thermometer. Let such a patient take his exercise writhin the limits of the room by walking up and dow*n 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 system, and can do so again. Consumption is as easily cured as any ether disease if it is ta ken in time, and the proper kind of treatment is pursued. Ihe fact stands undisputed on record that Schenck s Pulmonic Syrup, Mandrake Pills, *?nd Seaweed Tonic have cured very manv of what seemed to be hopeless cases of consu'mp tron. Go where.you will, you will be almost cer tain to find some poor consumptive who has been reseured from the very jaws of death by their use. m So lar as the Mandrake Tills are concerned, everykoky should keep a supply of them on hand. I hey act on the liver better than calomel, and leave none of its hurtful effects behind. In fact thev are excellent in all cases where a purgative medicine is required. If you have partaken too freely of fruit and diarrlura 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 w ould obviate the effect of a change of water, or the too free indulgence iu fruit, take one of the Mandrakes every night or every other night, and yon may then drink water and eat waterme lons, pears, apples, plums, peeches or corn, with out the ri*k ofoeing made sick by them.. They will protect those who live in damp situations against chills and fevers. Try them. They are perfectly harmless. They can do you good'oulv. I have abandoned my professional visits to Boston and New York, but continue to see pa tients at my office, No. 15 N. SIXTH street, Phil adelphia, every Saturday, from 9 a. m. to 2 p ir Those who wish a thorough examination w itli the Respirometer will he charged live dollar*.— The Respiromefer declares the exact condition of the lungs, and patients can readily learn whether they are curable or not, But I desire it distinctly understood that the medicines de pends upon their being taken strictly accordin ? to directions. In conclusion, I will say that w-hen persons take my medicines and their systems are brought into a healthy condition thereby ther are not so liable to take cold, yet no one with diseased lungs can boar a sudden change of at mosphere without the liability of greater or less irritation of the hron dual tubes. Full directions in ill languages accbmpauv my medicines, so explicit and clear that any one can use them without consulting me, ami can be bought from any druggist. J. H. SCIIENCK, M. D No. 15 N.

It is ft fair specimen of Gtoigia families gen erally, at the*i»eads of which fire pa rents of good sense, good morals, and well improved minds. To be sure, there are in Georgia as many notious about parental government as there are in any other country, and the practice is tvs various as the opinions. Some parents eiercise no government at all; others confine themselves ex clusively to the government of the tongue; and others rule by the rod alone; but by far the larger class blend these several modes of govern ment, and prefer the one or the other according to times and circumstances. To this class belonged Mr. and Mrs. Butler, the heads of the family which I am about to describe. Gilbert was tbe Christian name of the husband, and Kliza of the wife. I was iutimate l.> acquainted with them both before their union, and was ever afterwards admitted to their household with the freedom of one of its members —indeed, I was a connection of oue of them. They had been married about eight mouths when a dull November evening found me at their fireside. In the course of the evening the conversation turned upon raising children. “By the way, Eliza,” said Gilbert, “I have been thinking for some time past of interchanging views with you upon this subject ; and there never can be a better time than now, while Abraham is with us, whose opinions we both re spect, and who will act as umpire be tween us.” 'Well/ said Eliza, ‘let me hear yours.’ ‘lf we should ever be blessed with children (Eliza blushed a little,) let it be a fundamental law between us that neither of us ever interfere with the discipline of the other, either by look, Nvord, or action, in the presence of th* children.” ‘To that rule I most heartily sub scribe.’ ‘When a child is corrected by one of us, let not the other extend to it the least condolence or sympathy.’ ‘ln that also you have my hearty concurrence.’ ‘Let us never correct a chi and in a passion.’ ‘The propriety of that rule I fully admit, but I fear that I shall not al ways be able to conform to its requisi tions. I will, however, endeavor to do so.’ ‘Well, if you will do your best I sh*ll be satisfied.’ ‘Let us, as far as it is practicable, introduce among our childreu the uni versally admitted principles of good government among men.’ 'That is a very indefinite rule,, hus band. 1 know very liitle of the prin ciples of good government among men, and much less of. those principles which are universally admitted.’ ‘Well, I will be a little more specific. I believe it is universally admitted that laws should precede punishment, anti that none should be punished who are incapable of understanding the law.— In accordance with these principles I would never punish a child who is in capable of distinguishing between right and wrong, nor until he shall be forewarned of the wrong and taught to avoid it.” ‘These principles seem very reasona ble to me,” said Eliza, ‘but they never can be applied to children. If you do not correct a child until it is old enough to learn from precept the dif ference between right and wrong, there will be no living in the house with it for the first five or six years of its life, and no controlling it after wards.” Gilbert received these views of his wife with some alarm, and entered upon a long argument to couviuoe her that they were erroneous. She main tained her own very well, but Gilbert had certainly the advantage of her in the argument. All he could say, how ever, did not in the least shake her confidence in her opinion. I was at length appealed to, and I gave judgment in favor of Gilbert. ‘Well,’ said she, ‘I was never better satisfied of anything in my life than I am that you are both wrong. But let us compromise this matter. I’ll agree to this; if ever I Current a child before it is old enough to receive instruction from precept, and you do not approve of my conduct, I will then promise you never to do the like again.’ ‘Well,’ said Gilbert, ‘that is very fair. One mofe rule will settle the funda mentals, and we may safely trust all others to future auju tmeut. Let us never address our children iu the non sensical gibberish that is so universally prevalent among parents, and particu larly among mothera It is very silly in the first place, and it greatly re tards a child's improvement in the second. Were it not tor this 1 have no doubt children would speak their mother tongue as correctly at four years okl ■ a they do at sixteen.’ Eliza smiled* and ob erved that this was such a small matter that it had also better be left to future adjust ment. To this Gilbert reluctantly as sented. About two mouths after this con versation Gilbert was ‘‘ blessed” witu a fine son, whom he named John James Gilbert, itlier the two grandfathers and himself—a profusion of names which he had cause afterwards to re "pent. Just fourteen months and six days thereafter he was “blessed” with a fine daughter, whom Eliza named Auna Francis Eliza, after the two grand mothers and llorself. Fifteen months thereafter he re ceived a third blessing, like unto the first, which he called George Henry, after his two brothers. Thirteen months and nine teen days after the birth of George, a fourth blessing descended upou Gilbert, in the form of a fine son. This took the name of William Augustus, after two brothers of his wife. Eliza now made a long rest of nine teen months, four days and five hours (I speak from the fcunily record,) w hen, by way of amends, she present ed her husband a pair of blessiugs.— As soon as bis good fortune was made known to him, Gilbert expressed re gret that he had not reserved his own name until now, in order that the twins might bear his name and mine. Seeing this could not be done, he be stowed my name on the first born, and* gave me the privilege of naming the second. As I considered “a good name rather to be chosen than great riches,” I called the innominate Isaac —after the patriarch, and a beloved uncle of mine. • In this very triumphant and lauda ble manner did Mrs. Butler close the list of her sons. She now turned her attention to daughters, and in the short space of five years produced three that a Queen might have been proud of. Their names, in order of their births, were, Louisa, Rebecca, and Sarah. It was one of Mrs. Butler’s maxims, ’lf you have anything to do, do it at once,’ and she seemed to have been governed by this maxim iu making up fier fami ly, for Sarah completed the number of her children. John ivas about n year old when I was again at Gilbert’s for the evening. He was seated by the supper-table with the child iu his arms, addressing some remarks to me, when I called bis attention to the child, who was just in the act of putting its fingers into the blaze of the caudle. Gilbert jerked him away suddenly, which so disap pointed and incensed Master John James Gilbeifc that he screamed insuf ferably. Gilbert tossed him, patted him, valked him, and whistled to him, but he could not detract his attention from the candle. He removed him out of sight of the luminary, but that only made matters worse. He now commenced his first lesson in the ‘prin ciples of good government.’ He brought the child towards the candle,, and the nearer it approached the more pacified it became. The child extended its an. s to catch the blaze, and Gilbert bore ii slowly towards the fiame untiL the hand came nearly iu contact with it, when he snatched it away, crying ‘Bunny finnies!’ which is by interpretation, ‘You’ll burn your fingers.’ Eliza and I exchanged smiles, but neither of us said anything. The child construed this into wan ton teasing, and became, if possible, more obstreperous than ever. Gilbert now resorted to another expedient.— He put his own fingers into the blaze, withdrew them suddenly, blew them, shook them, and gave every sign of acute agony. This not only quieted but delighted the child, who signified to him to do it again. He instantly perceived (what was practically de monstrated the minute afterwards) that the child was putting a most dan gerous interpretation upon his last illustration. He determined therefore not to repeat it. The child, not satis fied with the sport, determined to repeat it himself,, which the father op posing, he began to reach and cry as before. There was but one experi ment left, and that was to let the child feel the flame a little. This he resolved to try, but how to conduct it properly was not so easily settled. It would not do to allow the infant to put his hand into the blaze, because it would either burn it too little or too much. He therefore resolved to direct the hand to a poiut so near the flame that the increasing heat would induce the cJuild to withdraw his hand him self. Accordingly he brought the ex tended arm slowly towards the flame, the child becoming more and more impatient with every moment’s post ponement of its gratification, until the hand became within about an inch of the wick, when he held the child sta tionary. But John would not let his band remain stationary, nor at the chosen point. He kept snatching at the candle, till finding all his efforts fruitless, he threw himself violently back, gave his father a tremendous thump ou the nose with the back of lib head, and kicked and screamed most outrageously. ‘You little rascal,’ said Gilbert, ‘l’ve a good mind to give you agtpd spank mg.’ ‘Give him to me,’ said Mrs. Butler. ‘You’d better not take him,’ said Gilbert, in an under tone, ‘while ho is in such a passion.’ ‘No danger,’ said she; ‘hand him to me.” As she received him, ‘hush, sir/ said she sharply, and the child hushed in stantly and was asleep in a few min utes. ‘Strange, ’ said Butler, ‘bow much sooner the mother acquires control over a child than the father.’ ‘Not at all,’ said Mrs. Butler. ‘You would have controlled him as easily as I did if you had given him the same lesson before hand that I gave him.— He got in just such an uproar the oth er day, and finding nothing else would quiet him, I spanked it out of him, and i nave had Lio trouble *ti quieting- hirti since.’ I begin to think, Butler,’ said I, j ‘that Eliza was right iu the only points l of difference between you touching the j management bi elnhlran. I observed that yon addressed the child just now in the gibberish which you so much condemned before ) ou became a father; and though it semed ridiculous enough, especially in you, I think it would have appeared still iwore ridiculous il yon hud said so a child so young,, ‘Joiiu, uiy son, do not pm your lingers into the flame of the caudle, k will bury them.’ And your experiment has taught you the absolute impossbility of governing children oi very tender years by prescribed rules.’ ‘I am half inclined to your opinion,’ said Butler. Etoza’s disci pi hie has performed several good officers, it has relieved us of John’s insufferable noise, it has taught him to controll his temper at its first upj earauccyand it has learned him the meaning of a word (‘hush’) w hich will oiteii supply the place of correction, and always forewarn of desires unlawful However, this case is an exception to my rule rather than a refutation of it. ,Affcer a child gets old enough to un derstand the language of msuucuou, he should always be preiuomsked be for he is punished.’ Eliza again joined issue with him, and an argument ensued in which GiU bert silenced his wife as before, but with no better effect upon her judg ment The matter was referred, to iue, and 1 decided this time in favor qf? the wife; rather upon the doctrine of cn »n --ces than of dialectics. Gilbert now squared himself for an argument a little more obstinate than that from which he had just come off victorious. After waiting a reasonable time, ‘Well,’ said he, ‘proceed.’ ‘Proceed where?’ said I. ‘With your reasons.! ’l’ve got no reasons/ said I, ‘ex cept that your wife thinks so.’ ‘Well, really,’ returned he, ‘that is very profound, and proves you feo>be the best judge for the decision of iny wife’s controversies that she could se lect.’ ‘There may be more sound philoso phy in it,’ rejoined I, ‘than at first sight appears. Your wife has already proved herself to be a better- judge of these matters than both of us put to gether; and I think I understand why it is so. She has lmd ten times the ex perience iu them that we have had,- Her habits of iife have been domestic; she has seen children of all- ages and under all cireu Distances, and from six teen to twenty-three she supplied her mother’s place iu her father’s family.’ ‘A pretty handsomo retreat,' said- Gilbert Long before the second son arrived at the reasoning age Gilbert abdicated unreservedly in favor of his wife, con tenting himself with the subordinate station of her ministerial, officer, in which he executed her orders in cases requiring more physical strength than she possessed.. Passing over the intermediate peri od, I now introduce the reader to this family after most of the children had reached the ‘age of reason.’ In con templating the scene which lam aboub to sketch, he will ue to turn bis thoughts occasionally to Gilbert’s ‘principles of good government.’ Sarah was about two ydars and a half old when Gilbert invited me to breakfast with him, one 'December morning near the Cunstimis holidays. It was the morning appointed for his second killing of bogs; which, as the Southern reader knows, it is sort, of family carnival iu Georgia. I went,, and found ill the children at home, and Gilbert’s mother added to the family circle. John and Anna Lau reached the age when they were per mitted to take seats at the first table; though upon this occasion. John,be mg engaged about the poik did nos avail bimscif of this pmihge. The rest of the children were taught to wait for the second table. Breakfast was announced; and, after the are its and Anna had dispalched their meal, the children were summoned. As they had been taught not to seat them selves at the table until bidden, and a* there were some preparatory arrange ments to be made, they ail gathered around the fire, clamorous with thee events of the morning. 4 By jdekfiy," said William, ‘didn’t that oia black barrer weigh a heap T ‘Look here, young gentleman,’ said his mother, ‘where did you pick up such language us that V Now let ,iue ever hear you ‘by-jokeying/ or by-tug anything else again, and i ll ‘by-jokey’ you witu a witness, I’d warrant yoii.’ ‘But the black barier,’ said George, ‘didn’t weigh as much to his size ua the Jbob tail speckle, though.’ ‘He did.* ‘He didn’t.’ ‘Hush your drspulifag this instant! stop it [ You shah not contradict eacii other in that manner. And let us hear no more Os your hog-pen w onders —nobody wants to hear them.’ At this instant William snatched a pig-tail out of Isaac’s liana. ,Ma/ yelled Isaac, ‘make Bill gi’ me muh tail’ ‘You William ! give him his—thing.. And if I was near you I'd box your ears for snatching that—Mr Butler, you will really have to take that fel low in hand. He’s getting so I csm do nothing with him.’ ‘lf he clou t behave himself/ t>aid Butlet carelessly; ‘just turn him oyer to me; I reckon I can*manage him. MM BEK 36.
