MISSISSIPPI.
The Mississippi delegation say
We came here simply asking recognition the equal
rights of State under the laws and Constitution Of our
common Government; that right to property should
be asserted and the protection Of that property, when
necessary should be yielded by the Government which
claims allegiance We had regarded government and
protection cOreatve ideas and that long the
was maintained the other still endured.
Alter deliberation of many days, it has been
nounced to by controlling majority of representa-
tves of nearly oneha the States OF this Union and that
too in the solemn aud impressive manner that
demand cannot be met and rights cannot be recOg
nized While it is granted that the capacity of the Fed
era Government is ample to protect all other property
within its jurisdiction is claimed TO be mpoent when
called upon in favor of species Of property
cognzed in fifteen sovereign States. Within those States
even Black Republicans admit to be guaranteed by the
Constitutions and to be only aSsaed by higher law
without them they claim the right to prohibit destroy
il. The controlling majority OF Northern representatives
on this floor while they deny all power to destroy equal
" deny all power protect; and this they rs
is and must and shall be the condition of our coopera
ton in the next Presidential election.
In this state of affairs our duty is plain and obvious
The when sent US here 10 us prln-
cples In with seventeen of her sister States
she has asked recognition of her constitutional rights
These have been plainly and explicitly denied to her
We have offered yield everything except abandon
Of her rights-everythng except her honor; aud
il has availed US nothing.
As the representatives of Mississippi, knowing her
wishes-as honorable men, regarding her communicative
withdraw from the Convention and, far action
is concerned absOlve her from all connection with this
body and all responsibility for its action.
To you sir a. presiding officer of the Convention while
it has existed in its integrity, We desire, collectively as
delegation and individually men, to tender the high
est assurances OF profound respect and considera
ton.

DR.. HuSTrg on AFFECTIONS OF THE THsoAr-T5 the
Ef'Or Of The hig:-Ih my last letter gave a descrip-
ton Of Catarrh pointed out the connection which exists
betxeen this disease and Consumption and explained
method of treatment under which it rapidly and rad
cily cured shall now proceed to speak OF affections
Of the Throat.
The Throat is that cavity which is seen Jelov and BE-
hind the curtain of the palate looking into the mouth
From the centre Of the palate little point hangs down
towards the root of the Ongue-th is the "UUuiI." On
each side of the entrance to the cavity called the throat
We have two glands-tLe t0HSlis The throat is lined
by the mucous membrane which also the uvull
aud tOnsls Beneath the mucous membrane there
little gandular bodies which, in health, secrete lubri
calicg Huid-these the mucous tOiticies.
Now all these several parts liable to disease hence
you will understand that all affections of the throat
not alike they be cured by the same remedies
When speak therefore, Of affections OF the throat
say "simDie sore throat" inflammation of the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS sore HrOat' inflammation
with enlargement of the fOiicLes The tonSiis
may be enlarged from repeated attacks of qny the
,uid elongated from repeated attacks OF simple sore
throat.
To detect and reqove these several diseases is the bust
of the physician and that physician and that pac
tice which accomplshes these objects with the greatest
certainty and with the least Inconvenience, is the most
deserving the confidence of the public.
In ordinary throat OccaSioned by cold, there is
simply redress and slight puiness of the membrane,
which subsde after few days and leave the parts af
fected in their former condition This 10 most
persons during each winter but it is thought Of little
consequence scarcely to deserve attention. Not so
in reality, however; for each attack leaves increased
liability recurrence, and lays the foundation OF chro-
mic Diseases 1t is imperative that all these should
be promptly treated, by the of warm emoen nha
laons from proper Instrument, the tubes OF which
capable of directing large volume of vapor into the
throat, without effort on the part OF the patient.
But simple throat does not always terminate in
tn satisfactory manner All the unpleasant symptoms
gradually disappear, leaving the patient as supposes
perfect health but he becomes conscious oil
harsssng Utilization, producing desire two or three
times day 70 clear the throat. This probably is not
perceptibe to himself but is noticed by his friends
After few months this disposition increases and is
attended by desire to swaow-the patient feeling
something TO use familiar phrase sticking in his
throat"
On looking into the throat under these circumstances
grGulatioaS of various sizes will be studdng the
membrane, and causing it to appear rough and un-
At times these exist in irregular patches, but
commonly they regular in shape, and each granula
ton is distinct Should the disease progress, the mu
cous foices of the arynx also become involved, and
then have HUsHEEss Of the voice, with frequent and
vexatious attempts TO clear the throat At these times
thick sticky kind of mucous is forced off with conside-
rable difficulty.
In the of chronic throat the usual re-
to bleeding purgng alternatives, and counter lr
ritaons Only weakens the constitution and renders the
maady more inveterate Gargle too, are OF little val
ue In defiance of such means the irritation proceeds
slowly, but surely towards The lungs till at last the SUI
ferer learns that it is but short step from an ORDINARY
SORE THROAT TO A CONFIRMED CONSUMPTION.
When this disease has passed. as it invariabe does
when not arrested to the bronchial tubes applications TO
the throat always fail unless conoued with Alternative
and asringent inhalatons. No SOLID OR LIQUID medl-
cine finds its way below the division OF the wind
pipe and rarely than two and half or three inch
es below the epigottis The disease below the lowest
point which applications are made by the whale
bone and sponge by far the most serious and yet
here, when rely on these applications alone 1t pro-
ceeds through its several stages certainly as though no
eatment were adopted to arrest it. This 10 imagr-
AIRY picture. Nearly onehaf Of the consumptlye cases
under my in this city have been previously treated
for DISEASES THE THROAT" by applications OF M
rRArE OF SILVER and they me, not only with
out benefit, but with decided increase OF their many
distresses.
At the present moment have many patients suffering
from clearly marked consumption, who attribute their
disease of the lungs to "BURNNG THRoArs These
facts mentioned TO illustrate the failure and dlsap-
pontment which must always occur when the diseased
surface is not fully reached by the remedy employed
and this conceive to be impossible by any other means
than inhalation.
The term bronchitis" is very commonly applied to
DISEASES OF THE THROAT; and this error kept up oy
the folly of medical writers in using the term not 10 It's
proper, but IN its POPULAR Specification Recent books
issued from The American press have assisted in no small
degree perpetuate this error Bronchitis is disease
Of the bronchial tubes which ramfy in every direction
through the substance Of the lungs Bronchitis there
