and when speedy death appeared to be inevitable.
His physicians pronounced his incurable,
when he commenced the use of this simple but
powerful remedy. His health was restored in a
very short time. and return ofthe disease has
been apprehended, for all the symptoms quickly
disappeared, and his present weight is more than
two hundred pounds.
Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention
exclusively to the cure of Consumption and the
diseases which are usually complicated with il;
and the cures effected by has medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr.. Schenck
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where he has large concOurse OF
patients, and it is tru astonishing to see poor con-
sumptiyes that have be lifted out of their car
generally all required in curing Consumption.
Full directions accompany EACH so that any one
take them without seeing DR.. Schenck, but
when it is convenient it is best to see him. He
gives advice free, but for thorough examination
with his Respirometer his fee is three dollars.
Please observe, when purchasing. that the two
licensees ofthe Doctor-one whenin thelast stage
OF Consumption, and the other as he now is, in
perfect health-are on the Government stamp.
Sold by all Druggists and Dealers. Price Sl.50
per bottle, or $7.50 the half dozen. Letters for
advice should always be directed to Dr.. Schenck's

Praised by some as the very perfection of
political wisdom, the British Constitution pre-
sents, nevertheless, certain anomalous features
truly puzzling to men who have been trained
to the simplicity of republican ideas of gov
eminent. An English Peer is forbidden to vote
in England at elections for the return OF rep
resentatives to the popular branch of the Leg
islature. Nor may he take an active part in
such elections, an annual resolution OF the House
of Commons declaring void any election i'll
which Peer has nterfered This prohibition
doubtless had its origin in the fear that the
Lords might secure a complete monopoly of
power for themselves, by so influencing the
elections as to get returned to the Lower House
those men only who were devoted to their or
der But in spite of constitutional usage and
annual rule of Commons, the Peers have always
managed indirectly to control the elections to
such an extent that each successive House for
the last two hundred years has been filled with
men either related to Peers by ties of blood or
pledged to support the interests of their order
An English journal says it is perfectly well
known that the Peers do interfere in elections
in every conceivable way short OF appearing on
the hustngs and recording their votes; and it
is a notorious fact that the Duke of Devonshire
selects, though he does not exactly nominate,
the members for four counties. Among the
questions collateral with that of Parliamentary
Reform, this interference of Peers in elections
is engaging particular attention in England at
present. During the recent session Of Par
lament it was proposed in the House of Com
mons to change the annual resolution rendering
any election void in which a Peer may inter-
fere into a statutory provision, under which
any spiritual or temporal Peer interfering at an
election should be held guilty of misdemeanor,
and liable therefor to period OF imprison-
ment. The proposition was, of course, peremp-
torily rejected, the Commons not being yet pre-

M,SHNrTAS COOPERATIVE RELIEF ASSOCIATION
All Life Insurance is intended to make provision TOR
survivors by stated payments during the hfetme Oh
the person insured. Many young merchant OF
clerk can pay 800 TO 500 per annum to secure an
adequate provision for his family in case OF his cary
death: and thousands have thus been saved from
hegparv and wretchedness. Whether this or that
form of Life Insurance is best do not decide but
the Manhattan Cooperative Relief Association seems
to combine the features of a Benefit Society with
those of ordinary Life Insurance. The initial pay
ments are very moderate but of course all that the
members receive they must pay-there IS no escape
from this law Those who live longest VIII pay most
those who die soonest will secure to their iafnliie'
great advantages at small cost,
We believe tho officers of the Manhattan 10 DO
honest and responsible, and their plan fairly set
forth in their prospectus, to which we direct those
contemplating Life Insurance, leaving each to Judge
for himself.

The President is reforming. He formerly
violated the law first, and called on his Attor-
ney- General for his opinion afterward. Now
he asks Mr.. Evarts to inform him whether he
can lawfully appoint successor to Commits
soner Rollins, and whether he can regard Con-
gress as having adjourned instead of taking a
recess and whether, consequently, he can make
appointments to the Russian, Venezuelan, and
Ecuador missions; and not only so, but he pur-
poses to wait until Mr.. Evarts gives his opin-
ion. 1t is not even certain that he will not be
guided by it when given. We may thank the
Democratic Convention for haying sat so early.

If there is any truth in the numerous dis
patches which now reach us almost daily from
Spain, that country must be on the eve of a
general collapse. Among the people and the
umy dissatisfaction is said to be universal,
oltbreaksare expected in almost every province,
and a financial crisis is near at hand. Gen.
Prim aud his friends have fixed upon Lisbon
as the place of their meeting, and two mem
bers of the new Portuguese Cabinet, who are
intimate friends of Gen Prim, are favorable to
a revolution in Spain.
