Influential parties regard it as sig

FROM WASHINGTON.
The Butler and Bingham Con-
trOversy.
Mrs. surrattand J. vvnks. Booth


WASHINGTON, March 26.-In the
House to-day Mr.. Butlcr, of Mas
sachusetts, called the attention Of
members to the fact that Mr.. Bing.
ham, of Ohio, had revised, altered
and materially changed the Globt
reporters manuscript of the per-
sonal debate last week between
himself and Mr.. Bingham.
Mr.. Butler then laid GU the desks
OF the members q printed pamph-
let showing the report as written
and the report as printed. He
characterized this proceeding as
most unfair. In defence Of his OWL
assertion made the other day that
Mrs. Surratt was hung withou,
sufficient evidence, he charged thai
John Wilkes Booths diary, which
showed all his movements prepara,
tory to the assassination OF Mr.
Lincoln, was kept from the knowl
edge of the court, and that it now
appeared that ii had been spoilatc(
by having eighteen pages of j
cut out after it bad got into th'
hands Of the government.
Mr.. Bingham replied, and re
pcated his declaration that thu
charge of Mr.. Butler was q calum
ny, and that he defied him. III
denied that the diary would hav'
been proper evidence. Ho also de
MED all knowledge of it's spoila
tion, and asserted that it was th'
Judge, e,Advocate- General, not b,
(Bingham), whohad conducted th'
trial.
The discussion between tho twC
gentlemen attracted much intercs
and attention.

SCHENCKS MANDRAKE PILLS

Will be found to possess those qualities
necessary to the total eradication of all
bilious attacks, prompt to start the Secre-
tiOns of the liver, and give a healthy tone to
the entire system. Indeed, it is no ordinary
discovery in Medical Science to have invented
a remedy for these stubborn complaints, which
develope all the results produced by hereto
fore free use of calomel-a mineral Justly
dreaded by mankind, and acknowledged to be
destructive in the extreme to the human
system. That the properties of certain vege-
tables comprise all the virtues of calomel,
without its injurious tendencies, is now an
admitted fact, rendered indisputable by scien-
tiio researches; and those who use the Man
drake Pills will be fully satisfied that the best
medicines are those provided by nature in the
common herbs and roots of the fields.
The Pills open the bowels and correct all
bilious arrangements, without salvation, or
any of the injurious effects of calomel or other
poisons. The secretion of bile is promoted by
these Pills, as will be seen by the altered
color of the stools, and disappearing of the
sallow complexion and cleansing of the tongue.
1t has long been thought by the profession,
that calomel or some other form of mercury
was the only medicine that would restore the
deranged or deprived secretions of the liver.
But such is the poisonous effect of any form
of mercury, in producing salvation, carries
of bones, and premature decay, that the
profession has long ago endeavored to find
some other preparation that would act as we'll
upon the liver, without any of the dreaded
results of mercury.
In some of the Prize Essays in Europe it
was remarked that the discoverer of this
remedy would be entitled to the lasting graft
tude of the entire human race.
This preparation DIR. j. H. Schenck, of Phi
ladelphia, has certainly discovered in the
Vegetable Kingdom, and its active principle is
contained in 1.-THE Mandrake Pills. 1t is
as equally efhcacious in producing a healthy
action of the liver as any of the forms of mer-
curry, and entirely free from any dangerous OF
injurious results.
DIR. Schenck is professionally at his princi-
pal Office Philadelphia, every Saturday, where
all letters for advice must be addressed.
He is also professionally at No. 80 Bond
street, New York, every Tuesday, and
Mo. 35 Hanover street, Boston, every Wednes
day. He gives advice free, but for every ex-
animation with his Respirometer the price is

PosT OFFICE APPOINTMENT.-COlonel Henry
II. Bingham, the new radical Postmaster of this
city, whose nomination to that responsible
position has successfully passed the fiery ordeal
of the Senate, has become firmly settled in his
Office an event for which the people of Phila-
delphia have good cause to be sincerely thank
full. It is some consolation for q city which has
seen so much tribulation in this respect of late,
to know that at least one of the Federal offices
within It's limits Is in a settled condition, with
a responsible and efficient head. The promotion
of Colonel Bingham to the head OF the establish
ment made vacant the position of Chief Clerk,
which he has filled for some time past. To this
vacancy he has promoted MIR. Lewis g. Wunder,
who has been an attache of the office for the
past twenty years. This appointment ensures
an able and Intelligent administration of the
affairs of our postal department in all its intri-
cate details
