DIR. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis,
Asthma, Paryngitis and all diseases of the
thrat and lungs by Medical inhalation. The
great point in the treatment of all human NAL
aides, is to get at the disease in 4 direct manner.
All medicines are estimated by their action up
on the organ requiring rlief. This is the i'm
portant fact upon Inhalation is based. If the
stomach is disord,rtd, we take Incidence di-
rectly into the stomach. If the lungs are dis
eased, breathe or inhale mediciated vapor di-
rect..y into the lungs. Medicines are the anti
dotes to disease, and should be appliedto the
very seat of diseases. Inhalation is the appli-
cation of this principle to the treatment of the
lungs, for it gives us direct access to those in
tricate air cells and tuccs which lie out ofreach
of every other mcass of administering medi-
cines. The reason that Consumption and 9TH
er diseases of the lungshaveh heretofore resisted
all treatment, has been because they have new
CT been approached in n direct manner by med
icine. They were intended to act upon the
lungs, and yet were applied to the stnnach -
Their action was intended to be local, and yet
they were so administered that they could only
act constitutionally expanding their principal
Immediate action upon the unofftnding stom-
ach, whilst the ulcers within the lungs are I'M
molestcd Inhalation brings the medicine in
direct contact with the disease, without the
disadvantage of any violent action. It's appli-
cation is so simple that 1t can be employed by
the younges infant or feeblest invalid. Itdoes
not derange the stomach, or interfere in the
smallest degree with the strength, comfort OF
business of the patient.
OTHER DISEASES TREATED.
In relation to the following diseases either
when complicated with Lung affections, or ex-
isting alone. I also invite consultation-usu-
ally find them promptly durable.

The NORTH CAROLINA Coal FIELDS
The question has sometimes been asked
as there really coal on the Deep Riyerr'
In answer to this question, it is only ne
cessary to state that over 100000 have
been invested, not in lands for speculation,
but in labor and machinery to lay the coal
upon the surface. Expectation, based upon
the report of Engineers, was, that an outlet
by the Cape Fear would be made practica-
bic by the time the Company could be
ready to deliver coal, and the failure Of the
river works is the reason that there is no
coal.
Ii freliance can be placed in practical men,
there is more coal on Deep River than half
a dozen railroads can take away for some
ages to come.

RAISE MORE FoOD.-The New York
Post gives some '.advice to the tillers of the
soil," from which we take the following SEN
sible and timely remarks:
The revolt in India is the harbinger of
famine one hundred and eighty millions of
human creatures will need large supplies of
food from the produce of other regions
The army of India, the transport feet for
that army and its supplies, the necessities
growing out of the disturbed state of that
great English dependency, will call for
much of our surplus beef, pork and flour
The two last named articles are the product
of every year, but beef requires years of
nourishment before it is ready for use. The
wicked, wanton waste of breeding power,
which is the besetting sin of American
farmers, ought to be checked. Every farm
er ought to be required to give an account
of himself who kills a female calf. We
ought to preserve every ''cow- calf for five
years to come. BY this method we might
soon have supply of beef, not only for our
selves, but for any emergency abroad.

states that, in the terrible fire which lately
rayaged Boganowo, in Prussian Poland,
many persons perished in the flames, and
upwards of fifteen bodies have already been

have been suffocated in endeavoring to hide
their valuables in the vaults, which ran

SEIZURE OF OBSCENE BOOKS, &c
The New York Express says: .. --

A short time since, man named Geo. A.
Ackermann, was arrested for publishing an
obscene sheet called "Tenus' Miscettany,"
and was let off by fine Of $50. Since that
time Officer Walsh, has made further dis
coveries concerning his operations, and
having obtained a search warrant for the
premises occupied by Ackermann, Nos. %
and "a, Frankfort street, he, with other
officers, proceeded thither. They found
the pressman and two boys, who were at
work striking off the filthy sheet, but Acker-
mann, alias James Romerio, the proprietor,
was not to be found, and a paper fastened
to the door of his office, stated that he was
out of town, and would not be back until
Saturday. Several girls, vino were employ
ed in coloring obscene plates, were also
arrested, but subsequently discharged.-
The officers found about 3,400 copies of the
paper struck off, which they seized. togeth-
er with the subscription books, containing
the names of from three to FIVE thousand
subscribers also the form, and about ten
thousand copies of the paper, packed up in
bundles, and addressed, mostly, to booksel-
lers in various parts of the country. The
subscription list includes the names of a
large number of females in all parts of the
country, and some even in Fifth Avenue
and other fashionable localities. Members
of Congress are also represented in it, and
officials of various grades. The moral city
of Boston has furnished some thousands of
Subscribers to this obscene sheet. Besides
the Tenus' Miscellany, the police seized
several thousands of bound volumes of OBJ
scene books. and large number of prints
of similar character. SO many of them
were in the place that the police were
engaged the most of the day in having
them carted to the Office of the Deputy
Superintendent of Police. The parties
rested were held to await examination, but
the principals Ackermann, the proprietor,
and james G. Wells, the printer, have not
been taken, though warrants for their arrest
have been issued. The property seized was
valued at several thousands of dollars, but the
whole of it will be probably committed to
the flames.
A list of the names of the subscribers to
the paper have been published from which
it appears it had circulation in even Va.
and 4. G.
Within the borders of the United States
there are $4,000 schools, 5000 academies,
