A CASE OF TWENTY YEARS STANDING.
PHILADELPHIA, Penn, June 25, ~

IHILADELiHlA, euHs, June lcos
IL. T. HELMBoLp, Druggst-DEAR SIR: have
been sufferer for upwards of twenty years with
gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which
time have used various medicinal preparations,
and been under the treatment of the most eminent
physicians, experiencing but little relief.
Having seen your preparations extensively al,
veitised, consulted my family physician in regard
to using your Extract Buchu
did this because had used all kinds OF adver.
tised remedies and had found them worthless, ana
some quite injurious; in fact despaired OF ever
getting well, and determined to use no remedies
hereafter unless knew of the ingredients IL was
this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you
advertised that il was composed of buchu, cubebs
and juniper berries it occurred to me and my phys
cian as an excellent combination; and with his adj
vice after an examination of the article ana con
sulting again with the druggist. concluded 10 try
it, l commenced to use it about eight months ago,
at which time vas confined to my room
From the first bottle was astonshed at the ben
efcial effect, and after using it three weeks was
able to walk out. felt much like writing to you a
full statement of my nj the time, but thought
my Improvement might only be temporary, ana
therefore concluded TO defer, and see If It would
effect a perfect cure knowing that II wonld be OF
greater value to you and more satisfactory to me
l am now able to report that a cure is effected,
after using the remedy for five months.
| have not used any now for three months, and
feel as well in all respects as ever did.
Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste
and odor nice tonic and nygorator of the system.

CURE OF KIDNEY AND LIVER AFFECTION OF
PATIENT SEVENTY EIGHT YEARS OF AGE.
THANKS TO MIR. HELMBOLD
GIRARD, Pa, March 81, 1863.

EDITOR COsMoPLTE: desire, as an unsolicited
tribute to the merits of Hembold's Buchu, and for
the benefit of those similarly afflicted as myself, to
say that after consulting many eminent physicians,
and trying nearly all the best advertised remedies,
in the vain hope of finding relief from aggriyat
kidney and bladder diseases, from which have
suffered excessively for many years, good fortune
finally suggested to me Helmbold's Buchu, which
commenced using with little faith, and no apparent
beneficial results for about month. At the eXpir
alton of that time, however, thought commenced
to experience slight relief which encouraged me to
persevere in its USE and now at the expiration OF
four months, although j am an infrm old man,
nearly Is years of age, and consequently medicines
cannot be expected TO fayorably affect me as they
otherwise would, have found such unspeakable
relief and permanent benefit from Mr.. Helmbods
valuable discovery, that feel | ought to publicly
record the fact as an acknowledgements to him and
valuable suggestion to the public.
Yours respectfully, ID. NJ. LAREN.

@ The information comes from
Washington that there is no longer
any doubt of the fate of the Tariff bill.
The correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial says:
"It may possibly, under the press
ure of the Ways and Means Committee,
succeed in getting through the House,
although of this there is grave doubts;
but there is no possibility of its passage
by the Senate. This opinion is given
after pretty thorough canvass Of the
leading men in the Senate, who affirm
that the present tariff is satisfactory to
the country for this year, and that it
is not proper time, even if Congress
had the opportunity, which it has not,
owing to the backward condition of bu-
siness, to revise it,"
If the country can feel assured that
the Tariff is not to be meddled with, it
VIII prove healthy for its business in
terests' The delay and uncertainty
heretofore attending the matter, has
had more to do with dullness in manu-
featuring pursuits than any thing else.
This continual change, or talk of
change, of policy in matters affeetino
the business interests of the countrv
is detrimental to business activity and
progress, and we are sure the country
would rejoice to see less of it. live

try would be better off for it.

laity OF their particular Conferences:
thus, the laity of the Ohio Confer
ence gave a majority against the
measure; the preachers gave a ma
jority, but not three fourths, in IA
vor. About two thirds of the laity
have voted in favor of lay delega-
tioD,* and so far, more than three
fourths of the preachers (only two
small Conferences remaining, hsve
voted in favor. Only comparatively
few preachers declined or failed to
vote. Thus it is obvious that the
change sooner or later is inevitable.
The rule requiring majority OF
three-fourths of the preachers for 8
constitutional change has not here
tofore been generally regarded as op-
pressive. Even a general confer
ence of preachers and laymen will
doubtless have restrictive rules,
hardly less exacting than this, guard
ing radical constitutional changes.
The Government of the United
States, though republican, strongly
guards its constitution. We think
there are good reasons for the intro
duction of lay delegates into the Con-
ferenees of the NJ z. Church. The
Church is now very near the point of
conforming its working more closely
to the working of our popular institn-
tions and to our theory of republican
government. The phenomenon We see
is that ofa Church with ,255, 900 men,
bers and $500 pastors approaching
the crisis of a revolution and rad
ical change in its organic life with
comparatively little strife, and com
paratively few bad feelings. Should
the two Conferences yet to vote fail
to maintain the requisite three
fourths majority there will probably
be little storm; but the fact that SO
large majority, both of preachers
and laity, favor the introduction of
lay delegation will enable the far
greater number of the friends of the
measure to be patient. By natural
process the anti lay delegationists are
decreasing in number, while the pro-
lay delegationists are increasing.
In the Churches there is very little
like political Wrangling on the sub
ject. The principal controversy is
among the preachers, three-fourths
OF whom desire the laity to share
their responsibility in the movements
of the Church at large; and many of
the preachers see the need of a more
general Christian activity in the cir
cults and stations instead of dispo-
sition to put upon one pastor such a
great variety of local responsible
tiles.

Ew The liquor prohibitionists have
called State Convention, to meet al
Columbus, June lst, to put in nomina.
ton candidates for State offices. Pub
lie sentiment is not yet ripe for pro-
hibition, and it would be much more
practical if these temperance advocates
would unite their efforts with others for
change in the Constitution whereby
the traffic might be brought under the
guardianship of law. Liquor will be
made, sold and drank, until the people
become better educated upon the sub
ject, and, with that fact in view, it
seems to US that temperance men, in
stead of aiding the impracticable idea
of prohibition, would accomplish much
more good for the cause by laboring
in the direction of the license system.
That would certainly be an advance
step over the present indiscriminate
sale.
