The New York Democratic State Con-
Vention,

The New York Democratic State Conven~
ton met at Rochester on the 18th instant.
when delegates to the Baltimore Convention
were elected and the following Resolutions
adopted
First. That we recognize the changes in
the nature and constitution of the govern.
ment which have taken place, and wthou.
reopenlng the questions of tho past, are ready
now to cooperate with those, whatever their
previous party afliiations-who favor limited
and localized government, who seek to restrain
the exercise by Congress of absolute and gen.
eral powers, to prevent lis entering upon pri>
vato Legislation, and to work permanent civil
service reform.
Second. That the recent declaration of DO.
litcal principles by the convention of Gin
cinnati is evidence of the progress of public
opinion toward sound and wholesome views of
government. We believe that all patriotic
citizens may unite upon that platform for the
purpose of restoring an honest administration
OF national affairs and enforcing the obligations
of the constitution, and our delegates to Bal
timore arc instructed to take the course best
calculated to secure the triumph of the prin>
clples, and the selection of any candidate rep
'resenting them who shall meet the approval
of the democracy in national convention as.

TIE CHAFF FROM THE WHEAT Mature
throughout all her operations does precisely
what the husbandman does when he winnows
the chat from the wheat-so too it is with
the blood of the human body, as it passes in
its course Of reparation of the various parts
engaged in the functions of life; i. winds its
way through this organ and the other. the
dross or worn out material is separated from
the good blood thus the liver secretes the
bile; the kidneys the urine, the bowels the
teculant matter peculiar to them. the skin is
continually throwing off insensible and SEN
slbie perspiration, and it is in this way that
the harmony and health of the circle of life
Is maintained. In acute diseases there is q
sudden check or obstruction to some one or
more of these functions in chronic diseases
it also exists, but not to the same extent-this
makes an acute disease rapid in its course. and
chronic one as its name imports, slow and of
long duration. They are both durable The
first by vigorous and active treatment, and
the latter by slower and surer method By
the use of DR.. kEYsER'S LUNG CURE the
distractions are generally removed. the cough
which induces consumption is allayed, and its
cause expelled from the system, the stomach
is restored to its tone and vigor the kidneys
eliminate the urine the liver secretes healthy
bile, and thus disease gives way to health
Consumption itself is cured, especially in the
beginning by this course.

diseases, to be had gratis at his medicine store.
