III the Editor Of the American Organ:
STA Agreeably to resolution Of Eutap Council
the suboined paper is transmitted you for publca-
ton. word or two in conneXion with the sub.
icct. The object contemplated must commend IT,
self 70 every true American. The only controversy
that can possibly exist is with regard to the means
best adapted TO the securement OF the end We
understand that the plan Of circulars addressed on
the part Of the Managers Of the Monument TO the
various councils, has bcenresortedto. That course,
We are convinced, viii fail to secure those uniform
and thorough supplies which viii be the natural
and unfailing results Of the plan below.
Our plan proposes TO commence with the high
Get body known to the order, and to 90 forth with
its authority. 1.-THE plan be adopted, the Grand
Council Of the United States will act Immediately
upon the State Grand Councils, and they in turn
viii exert similar influence upon the subordinate
councils. The system will be thorough and con-
sequcnty the desired results viii be but legitimate
effects. Nor Is this a mere theory, INFESTED and
untried We call attention 10 the following paper,
the original Of which is in the hands Of the Trca-
surer OF Eutaw Council
Received, Washington, May %, 1855, Of the
Treasurer OF Eutaw Council, Georgetown, ID. O.,

Here, then, is a specimen of the working Of the
plan we recommend-an earnest Of what It is able
TO accomplish kind Of first fruits Of the nbun-
dant harvest which may be gathered from all sec.
tons Of our native land And thus the Monument
will no longer be dependent upon the uncertain
and insufficient supplies which have heretofore been
raised by the operation Of imperfect plans. But
that appropriate memorial Of the nations gratitude
will uprise in beauty and grandeur until its stain
less marble and its towering altitude shall fifty rep

This remedy has won for itself such notoriety for
its of every variety of Pulmonary disease that
it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evidences of
its virtues in any community where it has been en-

desperate diseases Of the lungs by its USE When
tried its superiority over every other medicine
of its kind is too apparent to escape observation, and
where its virtues known the public no enger hes
tate what antdote to employ for the distressing and
dangerous affections Of the pulmonary organs which

less it arises from previously existing obstruction

table NO harm can arise from their use IN any guam
tity; but il is better that any medicine should be
taken judciously Minute directions for their use IN
the several diseases to which they are applicable are
given ON the box. Among the complaints which
have been speedily cured by them we may mention
Liver Complaint, in it's various forms OF Jaundice,
Indigestion, LanguoI and Loss Of Appetite, Lstless-

the spring Of the year. purify the blood and prepare
the system for the change OF seasons An occasional
dose stimulates the stomach into healthy action, and
restores the appetite and vigor. They purify the
blood and, by their stimulapt action on the circula
tory system, renovate the strength of the body and
restore the wasted or diseased energies of the whole
organism. Hence an occasional dose is advantageous
even though no serious arrangement exists; but un
necessary dosing should be carried too far,
every purgatve medicine reduces the strength when
taken TO excess. The Thousand cases in which
physic is required cannot be enumerated here but
they suggest themselves to the of every body;
and it is confidently believed this pill will answer
better purpose than anything which has hitherto been
