THERE'S document printed by the Senate in Janu-
airy, ls47 which does not appear tous veto have
attracted the degree of attention which it deserves
for it is document full of most interesting facts
tits statement of appropriations for the con-
sruciion and repair Of roads, and for the improve

showing, as far as practicable, the amount expended
in each State"
This statement commences with the year 1906,
and enumeraes all objects oil improvement Of roads,
harbors and rivers, and the appropriations in their
favor for each year, up 10 and including lS45, going
uninterrupiedly through every Administration dur

were occasional interruptions TO the system by
Vetoes upon measures which were considered not
sufficiently national in their scope, and that

received the sanction of every President during that
long period except President HARRISON, who is well

whose death occurred within month after his in
Tuguration.
BY referring TO this document il appears that the
whole amount expended on all these objects during
that period not including expenses of surveys, was

 The new year will be marked v, one of the most exciting presidential elections, under eircumstan- ces of more grave importance to our institutions that have occurred in national history.

Still no one should despair. The writings of physicians, who have given to these affections particular attention, abound with many recorded cases of recovery when the pa- tent had reached seeming hopeless stage of the disease; and there is, at this time remedy pTepar cd in Phiadetshia which has met with the most tTi- umphant and cheering success in the most obstinate forms of THROAT and PULMONORY DISEA- SES-so as to have obtained the sanction and en- pioyment in the practice of many Physieians.
