MODERN MEDICAL DIsCovERY.-It is
claimed that disease, with few exceptions,
has been conquered by the research and
intellect of enlightened men; and yet a
noted professor of New York admits that
of all sciences, medicine is the most un-
certain, and that thousands are annually
slaughtered in the sick room" Certain
schools" of medicine are in existence. one
of which makes the patient ill, in order
to claim cure; and another administers
sugar coated bread pills" relying upon
nature to effect her own cures Dr. j.
Walker, of California, an old and respected
physician, tried both modes of treatment
and both failed He then appealed to ma
lures curative-herbs and now enjoys
rugged health He has given the benefit
of his discovery to the world, in the shape
of VINEGAR BITTERs, and since its intro
duetion has sold quantity almost large
enough to make small harbor, or to float
the Great Eastern" Its curative proper
ties are attested by grateful thousands.

heavy weapon, which Knocked HIM senseIess

the rear. IL would have been cruel mercy If the
fend had allowed his victim TO fan to the street.
but he kept him III the horrible position with mis-
head and BODY hanging toward the eartn, until he
could snatch his victim 10 his leet again, when
with anotner fearful blow in the head he ielled
him to the ground as though he had hit him with
a sledge hammer. There the unfortunate man
lay, with his head dasaed against the
italy resting on the rear platform OF the
car Inc hend, having accomplished mis-
murderous work, rushed back TO his horses and
dashed off at rapid rate ol speed, turning the
corner out OF the Bowery at Grand street. Not a
policeman was visible, and the insensible and
horribly punished victim OF tins nendish brute
continued to lie where he fell until the people
from the sidewalks came TO his rescue and saved
him from being run over ana, perhaps, killed by
kinds which fill the lower part OF the Bowery at
that trne OF Day, The passengers on the car i'm.

have no objections to the gentlemen
appointed, but demand certain polit-
ical advantages as their price for
voting TO confirm them. This, the
majority declined to concede. Under
the Constitution, all appointments
made by the Governor have to be
confirmed by two-thirde of the Sen.
ate, and under this Requirement,
twelve Democratic Senators can
reject all nominations. On the ques-
tion of confirmation, Senators sit as
judges, and the only question should
be as to the fitness of the nominee.
This was the view taken by the
Republican Senators, and, believing
this, they held no caucus, and would
not in any case. The effort to force
concessions would prove a failure,
and in the end may result disastrous
ly to the minority The Appor-
tionment bill passed by the Senate
was the fairest ever passed by any
political party, and SO admitted to be
by political foes. He warned the
minority tat the course marked out
would not accomplish their purpose,
and would arouse the people of the
Commonwealth against their party
and the leaders, who are responsible
for the position taken.
Senator Wallace said he declined
to be interrogated, or to answer the
Seaator from Beaver to what their
party had done in caucus.
At the afternoon session, COM
munication from the Governor was
read, announcing the reappointment
of additional Law judges and Presi-
dent judges rejected this morning
for want of twO-third vote. Laid
over, under the rules, for five days.

LONDON, April ia shocking ex-
plosion occurred to-day in coal
II inc at Dur kinfield, near Ashton-un-
der-the Tyne, Lancashire. A large
number of miners were killed and
injured, many of the latter being ter
ribly burned. Thus far thirty bod
les have been recovered, and it is
feared many more remain in the
mine.
A later dispatch from Ashton, un-
der Tyne, states that forty-six bod
les have been recovered from the
mine at Dunkinfeld, in which the
explosion occurred to-day. These
are believed to have been all that
we're killed. One hundred men who
were left in the mine alive after the
accident have been safely rescued.
There is intense excitement at Dun
kinfeld. The explosion was caused
by the use of naked lights.
LONDON April l5.-Dispatches

A TORNADO.
Great Destruction OF Property Rf
Nashville, Tenn.

NASHVILLE, April IA tornado
passed over and through this city
from west to east at halfp twelve
O'Clock this morning, doing an i'm
mense amount of damage. 1t strucl
the city at the fair ground, passing
diagonally through the city and ou
by the university and Mount Olive
cemetry.
Its width seems to have teen
about a quarter of mile. After pas
sing the fair gounds it struck the Ex
position building and Maxwell house,
seriously damaging the former. The
front of the Academy of Music, D.
Ii. Firth grocery store, DOwney's
wholesale liquor establishment, and
several other smaller buildings near
the corner of Broad and Cherry
streets were crushed.
The front windows of Hurley Bros.
and Hansen d Co.'s four story build.
ings, near the same locally, were
crushed. Beadle's livery stable, con-
tanning an immense amount of feed,
wagons, horses and cotton, was blown
off its foundation into the back water.
Several horses and, it is thought, one
man were drowned.
Paris & Co.'S livery stable on Col
lege street, in the rear of Beadle's,
was seriously damaged, besides sew
eral feed stores and small negro
dwellings. 1t passed from there,
crushed in the front of the colored
Methodist church, next the medical
college, taking off portion of its
roof: from there to the magnificent
residence to jeff. Parersh, mooving
the whole roof out of place.
At this hour it is impossible TO
enumerate the number of buildings
damaged or the loss, which will
exceed 100000. Many poor fami-
lies are rendered homeless. 1t is
feared there has been serious dam
age to property and loss Of life along
its track. The telegraph lines are
Frustrated all along its course from
Union city to Nashville.
