of Physiology and Microscopic Anatomy in the

copy of an original treatise on the durability Of
Consumption by Meliepied Inhalation, accord

treatment discovered and solely employed by
the author.
In these election times, We have nOt,hatl leis-

attention of all classes in this country, and from
the attention it receives, no doubt has merit to
rest upon. DIR. Pancoast is now in this city,
