Specially in Medicine.
DR.. c. w. Fitch'S Treatment of Pulmonary Dis

eases.
Progress in medical science must generally be
made by men OF talent. who direct their ;nves-
legations in some particular channels-to some
special object; the same is also true with all de.
partments either of Science OF Art
1.-The Jack at all trades is rarely master OF
any, but he who confines himself to some sin
gle department suited to his capacity, and ear
nestIy and perseveringly pursues it, can hardly
fail to attain emIneEce.
In view of these facts il seems TO us strange
that so many Physicians should look with dis.
favor upon specialities in Medicine. The man
who confines himself to the investigation of any
particular class OF Diseases will necessarily see
more of them, and gain more thorough knowl
edge of them than one who divides his attention
between all the multifold departments of this
important science.
Pulmonary Diseases are so universally preva,
lent, and so uniformly fatal, that all facts con.
nected with them are of great and vital impor.
lance, and possess more than passing interest
with all classes of community; and every man
Of talent who sees fit to devote himself exclu-
sveiy, the study of these diseases, and is there
by enabled to treat them with more than or!iua
ry success, will and certainly should be held as
a public benefactor.
We have been induced to make these remarks
from some personal knowledge of the success
attending DR.. Calvin NJ. Fitch's method of treat.
ing Lung Diseases.
Mr.. Fitch has confined his attention exciu
sively to this class of diseases, and for some
years past has annually treated a greater mum.
Der of cases of consumption and kindred affec.
tons than ordinary practitioners see in the ex
perence of a lifetime; and the remarkable eff
cacy OF the treatment established and pursued
by DIR. Fitch, is an unanswerable argument in
favor of Medical specialities
We can name an instance of the beneficial
results of DR. Fitch's treatment which occurred
under our notice in this village. A year and a
half since one of our most prominent citizens
consulted DIR. Fitch for his daughter, young
Lady to all appearance in consumption. Her
symptoms certainly were well marked and
alarming, and yet under DIR. Fitch's treatment
she has entirely regained her health, and fol-
the past winter has been the life of sleighine
parties, &c, and no one to see her rosy and
blooming cheeks, would imagine she had eve,
known sickness.
In view of what we know of the efficiency OF
DR. c. VI. Fitch practice and (from long per-
sonal acqaaintance) of Lis high professional at
tainments, and cstimable character as a man,
we feel il both a duty and pleasure, TO inform
any of our readers who may be invalids, where
to apply for treatment. which in our belief. of.
ters the most reasonable hope of recovery

From Kansas.

A Kansas correspondent ofthe Chiea-
go Tribune, writing from Lawrence un-
der date of October 22d, represents a
rather remarkable state Of affairs as ex.
isting there. He says the conduct Of
Walker in refusing certificates of elec-
ton to the members elected by the bogus
Johnson county returns, had been made
the subject of the most angry kind OF
condemnation in the constitutional con-
|vention, now in session, by ex-Sheriff
Jones and others, and cit became evil
dent that if Walkerremained in I4ecomp-
ton, his life would have been worth no
more than Geary's on the occasion OF
the formers flight from that overheated
capital
walker became frightened and re-
treated to a little town called Benicia,
two or three miles east of Lecompton,
where Stanton has claim and a resi-
dence. He then sent for Capt. Walker,
the Free State Sheriff of the county,
The Captain started for Benicia imme-
diately, and took the hunted Governor
under the protection of the sovereign
people of Kansas Meanwhile the Gov.
ernor had despatched messenger for
Col. Summers command for an addition
al body guard.
This brings the state of affairs at Le-
compton, down to the latest dates. Gov.
Walker on Stanton's claim, protected
from his friends by Free State revol-
vers %
One hundred citizens of Lawrence
forwarded paper to the Governor of:
ering him the asylum and hospitality Of
the town, and pledging themselves to de-
fend him against all Rutfiandom.
Thecorrespondent expresses the opin-
ion that Walker will either speedily
resign or be turned out of his Governor
ship, That depends entirely on the po-
sition the President shall take

AS the Republicans have the majority in both
branches Of the Kansas Legislature, they will
undoubtedly reject the UNANIMOUSLY fraudulent
returns from Kickapoo, and give the Free State
members from Leavenworth county their seats
they having received majority of all the legal
votes cast. The Legislature will then stand
Council-Republicans III Democrats /.
Representatives Republicans 81; Democrats
seven.
The infamous character of the Oxford and
McGee frauds was such that Walker an Stan.
ton were obliged to reject the returns, but they
were no worse than the Kickapoo frauds, COM
mitted by Walkers troops under his direction.
The Legislature will have to deal with these
last ltwould be too much to expect Walker
to do anything in regard to them.

KANsAs.-The Lawrence Republican, states
the simple truth in regard to the course of the
Free State men of Kansas, as follows:
The truth of this matter is, the people of Kan
sas have ordered their steps in all this struggle
without any dictation from their friends east and
with reference to the effect of their action up
on the general politics of the country. They
have had one object steadily in view, namely,
the Freedom of Kansas, and for that end they
have earnestly labored regardless of the outside
effect of their action. If the Democratic party
has received any damage. and it doubtless has
from the course of the Free State men, it has
been because the Democratic party has opposed
the freedom of Kansas. Ifthe Republican party
has been built up by the troubles in the Kansas,
it has been simply and solely because the Re-
publican party has been III faror Of Freedom

Astounding Democratic Swindle.

An investigating committee appointed
by the Board of Councilmen of New
York City, has brought to light the most
enormous case of official robbery which
the annals of this country afford. The
"Steele" swindle in Minnesota authoriz-
ed by Floyd, the Secretary of war, and
of which the St. Paul Ninnesotian prom
ises rich development of in short
time, is thrown in the shade by this at
fair as also the Breslin swindle in Ohio,
1t will be remembered that New York
City is the Gibralter of sham Democra-
cy. The Herald, warm supporter of
Buchanan and of Mayor Wood, says:
"In anticipation of this report, we
stated some weeks ago that the commit
tee had discovered frauds upon the city
to the amount of over seven million of
dollars; and thereupon some of our CO.
tempories denounced the statement as
untrue. Now the report comes to bear
us out, giving the following as the fig

A GREAT FIooD IN the Hudson and
Nohdtck RiserS.-At II o'clock on
Thursday night, at Albany, the water
rose to within p feet of the great Feb
ruary freshet. The water remained sta
tionary about six hours, when it began
to recede; and during the last II hours
it has fallen eighteen inches. The bus
mess portion of Albany is submerged
some 20 feet. No communication can
be had with vessels lying at docks, ex-
cept by boats; consequently no loading
or discharging of cargoes can be effec-
ted. Canal boats can neither enter the
basin nor depart westward.
The Mohawk Flats, down to the June
ton of the Hudson, presents field of
water scarcely ever seen before.
