Patients in advanced stages of the
disease
So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu-

every section of country abounds in persons pub
licly known, who have been restored from alarming
and even desperate diseases of the lungs by its
use. When once tried, its superiority over every
other medicine OF its kind is too apparent to escape
observation, and where its virtues are known, the
public no longer hesitate what antidotc to employ
for the distressing and dangerous affections of the
pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate.
While many inferior remedies thrust upon the
community have failed and been discarded, this
has gained friends by every trial. conferred benefits
the afflicted they can never forget, and pro-
duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to
be forgotten.

The proceedings of Friday are thus condensed
by the \. Y. Tribune:
On motion of Mr. Niblack, of Indiana, the
Clerk was directed TO act rs Speaker and enforce
the rules relating to order until an organization
was effected; and also that the Sergeant alarms
of the last House be under the direction Of the
Clerk for a Ike purpose. Mr.. Bonham, of
South Carolina, took the floor, ard said the rea-
son why the House did not elect Speaker was,
that the majority were unwilling to put in the
chair an indorser Of Helpers book. He agreed
with the resolution that such a man was unfit for
the position. lie regarded it as a fatal error
when the Missouri Compromise was accepted bv
the South, as it encouraged Northern agrees
ions against Slavery. He characterized Mr.
Hickman as renegade, who, hayin. cast his
vote for Mr.. Sherman, settled the question is to
his being any longer Democrat. He believed
that the plurality rule IN choosing II Speaker
was unconstitutional The South, he said,
ci""he" 'e -. :" carry Slavery into common
Territories, and have il protected lihe oIng.
property by Territorial law. rs to disunion, he
said, without hesitation, that on the election of
Mr.. Seward, or any other man who ifdorsos,
proclaims, and holds the sentiments declared by
Mr.. Seward-call the party by whatever name
YOU please--he would be in favor of immediate
disunon, and he thought he spoke the sentiment
of his entire State. lie warned gentlemen that
the South would preserve Slavery or perish in
the attempt. Mr.. MillSon Of Va, took occasion
to deny he ever said that any man who indorsed
Helpers book was not fit to live. Mr.. Clemens
wanted to vote for Speaker, and objected to gen
temen taking the time of the House for ventila-
ting their rhetoric. He would not sit ami hear
them. Mr.. Simms of Kentucky made an on
slaught upon the North, AMI claimed for the
South the largest patriotism. \ vote for Speak

Mr.. Hickman's Speech.

Mr.. Hickman, Democratic member Of the
House Of Representatives in Congress, made
noble speech last week. Mr.. Hickman claims
his adherence to the party, notwithstanding has
soils and free speech opinions. The Era
gives an unqualified assent to Mr. Hickmau's po-
stions, and SAYS
We commend his views to all good Democrats.
They were once popular with that party, and 1t
il no, Mr.. Hickman, but those who would ex-
communicate him from the ranks Of the party,
who have aposta,ized from them.
He insisted that there is conflict between
the North and the South on the subject OF s!a-
very, as ineraicable as the foundations OF the
hills he charges the South with having been
fai;hess 10 all tho compromises Vi the Cohau'u-
ton, as well as TO those which have been made
by Congress, after getting the benefit OF them
herself. She has twenty Representatives on the
floor Of Congress, twenty Presidential electors,
and the fugitive slave law, in virtue of the con-
stitutional compromises. She has the benefit OF
the Missouri COMPROMISE, in the admission oil
Missouri a slave State, into the Union, she had
1854, in the privilege of carrying Slavery into
the Territories. and yet she has in every in
stance violated the agreement, and withheld, OF
attempted to withhold, from the North her in
terest in those Compromises The South agreed
that slaves should not be admitted into the Tn
ion from Africa after the year loOs and yet
she has virtually reopened the trade in violation
Of law. She agreed to trade freely with the
North, vet now proposes 10 taA SUrtllern goods
on their entrance into her territory. She agreed,
as a condition of admitting Missouri a. a slave
State, that all territory west of her should be
free; yet in 1851 the South almost unanimously
demanded the repeal that agreement, while
holding on To the benefit she derived from IT,
She was gratificd; the Compromise was repeal.
ed, and another entered into, by which it was
agreed that in future the question Of slavery was
Territories. She now repudates that bargain,
and not member on that floor from the South
would stand by il.
lie said that in his judgment, the free States
would never permit dissolution of the Union.
They were able TO preserve it, and would DO so
by force, if necessary.
Profound attention was given by all parties
TO the speech Of Mr. Hickman, and the Repub-
lcan., while they cannot subscribe to his popu-
lar sovereignty theory, were delighted with the
manly sentiments Of Freedom to which he gave
