WASHINGTON, April 8, 1852.
DIR. FoRsTA-SIr: Before you start West,
l can do no less than thank you again for
your excellent and successful treatment of
my son. He had been sick for many weeKs,
under the care of a medical gentleman OF
whom have high opinion, for his learn
ing, skill and experience, and yet he was
rot cured. His disease, suppose without
certainly knowing, was brought on by
overstraining, in artillery exercise, in very
hot weather, at West Point. When he
came into your hands, his breast bone lone
side at least was protuded some two inches
beyond its proper position, attended with
difficulty of breathing and frequent pains.
By the application of your medicines, and
your personal practice, in less than n week
the bones were reduced to their proper po-
sition, the pains ceased, the breathing be-
came easy and regular, and, as far as can
Judge, he is restored to his accustomed rO-
bust health and activity.
Besides this within my own knowledge,
have heard of many instances of extraor-
binary cures effected by you, in cases of
very dangerous wounds.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
EDWARD BATES,
Attorney General u. s.

very many able and accomplished Democratic
representatives, gentlemen who would adorn any
political party. But the action Of the members
as whole seemed more like the diminishing of
guerrilla soldiers than the movements OF regular
troops. They lacked the ancient discipline which
once distinguished the party. They seemed to
be withouta policy or a platform, cohesion or
consistency, and to be drifting along without
map, chart or compass, or waiting, like Wilkins
Micawber, for something to turn up" intend
no disrespect to any of my esteemed Democratic
colleagues, nor would l be irreverent when say
that they seemed TO act very much as l should
expect men would act who were dancing horn
pipe to the tunes of every man for himself and
the devil take the hndermost.
Democratic principles are equally loose and
uncertain, as expressed in their State Conyen-
tons. Thus in Maine they resolve in favor OF
free trade. In Pennsylvania they are for pro-
tective tariff. In Indiana they are for paying
the national debt in greenbacks. In New York
they are for honesty and a sound currency. On
one subject only did they present an undivided
front On the Civil Rights bill and any other
measure affecting the negro they were unit
The Republicans at an early stage OF the session
passed, with unanimity, measure for universal
amnesty, hoping that their generosity might be
reciprocated by like generosity toward the
blacks; but not one vote was given by the ex
rebels or the Democrats in favor of the African

The TOBACCO ..yictIm.n

Tie debate on the Tobacco Question is inter.
minable but there is one point in it which must
be considered settled, however opinions may DIFF
fer on other details. That the confirmed to-
baeco user il "A Victim, bond slave to an indul-
genee, we consider one of the fixed facts. not to
be argued OF laughed away. This victim has a
singular dual experience. In one view he il
like the decapitated twitching frog which the
lrishman declared to be dead, although ''not
sinsible of it." and in another view he is fully
aware of his condition, and is the first to admit
the truth of the structures against his sefshness
and folly. The objection to tobacco may be put
on exclusively moral ground. 1t is nothing if
tile triumphant smoker or chewer, in answer to
medical warning, points to the example of the
centenarian who has used tobacco all his life
SO man may indulge in assafedita.
Whether or not tobacco ruins a man i stomach
deranges his nerves, impairs his brain power, it
in at least certain that it makes him intensely
selfish 1t renders him regardless Of
The wishes and comfort and health of
others, and this selishness is a decid-
eli kind Of immortality, and is exactly fitted
to destroy the essential harmony of the home
If we regard the life Of the habitual tobacco user
we shall find it constant sacrifice of all those
sweet family uaages which are the very founda-
ton Of Society. Tie smoker grows to hold his
cigar closer than wife or children. This may
sound cruel, but it is the truth. The fact itself
il the cruel thing. What is affection apart from
the showing of it And of what avail is protes-
tation if the wifs sees herself persistently
neglected for the Indulgence of habit which
Wilmington daily commercial., 1874-10-16

constantly separates her from her husband and
renders his presence almost insupportable to her
in the short periods during which they are to-
gether? Now this, we assert, Is the state Of
affairs in thousands OF homes at this hour, and
it is condition which appears yearly to grow
worse. 1t is what we mean in calling the habit
ual user of 1.-THE weed a Victim. He is to be
pitied, but he is also to be sternly reasoned with
1t cannot be that the indulgence is worth all
that it forces him to give up,-then where is the
gain 1t cannot be that the smokers solitude, and
his eternal puff puff is fair Offset to the COM
partnership of wife and little ones, and hearty
cooperation in all the wholesome details Of
home-life,-then where is the rationale of
the exchange? Even if the smoker has
so keen sense Of his enjoyment as
to decide that his segar is worth this
sacrifice has not the other side-the patient
sharer of the family burthen-any rights in the
case ? Would she have married into such an
unequal partnership, could she have foreseen
how few years would change the ardent lover
who cared for nothing but her, into an admirer
SO Indifferent that he loves his cigar better
Well, to be candid, probably she would, even
could the foresight have been granted her, for
girls marry queerly enough, but that does not
excuse the betrayal of the husbands promises.

Apple,on's American Cyclop~dia.

Revised edition. This superb work is being
published by. the house of D. Appleton n Co.,
and in many respects is superior to any work of
the kind extant. For the people Of this country
there is none which can at all compare with it.
In the first place,it has precedence over any for
eign publication, because the persons and places,
institutions resources and history of this country
are treated as fully as those OF other countries.
The French Revolution brought into prominence
hundreds Of names which will be found IN every
Cycopedia, pretending to any degree of exc 81
lence, but the names of the prominent men,
and events of the late war i'll this country, can
be found in no work but the one now being pub
lished by Appleton. The same statement is true
of the thousand and one matters of note in this
| country the different States their population,
mineral and agricultural resources, manufactor-
| les, mines their prominent towns and cities ;
| the persons who have made name in the poll
ties of the country, in science, art, literature
all have, in this work, a record. Besides as this
| work is the latest, in contains much matter Of
| importance which it has been impossible to
| place i'll any other Cyclopndia. No decade of
years has been more prolific of important events
and discoveries in every department of kuOwl-
| edge than the last. mere summary glance at
the first volume shows this. Abyssinia almost
terra iacognitd, has been brought into public
| notice by the war with England. The articles
| on Africa contain the latest information gathered
By Livingstone and his coadjutors. Alsace has
been the scene Of terrible war and from a part
of France has become German province since
the last encyclopaedia was published.
Arctic discovery has received new light in some
most important particulars, not only since the
last encyclopaedia was published, but even since
the article written for the present one was in
type and ready for the press, so much 30 US te
require thorough revision of the article. Aus
tria, i'll the last ten years has been humbled by
Prussia, and has made vast strides toward re
gaining her position. And 10 III hundreds Of
subjects great changes have been made. ant
they all find record in this work.
geographically the work is perfect printed
in clear, newtype, on first rate paper. 1t is full
Of engravings, well printed which are designed
to give greater ucidity and force to the explana
lions IN the text We notice in the article OIL
bridges, engravings of the bridges over til,
Ohio at Cincinnati, the Susquehanna at Havr,
de Grace, the Mississippi at st. Louis, and til,
East river at New York, showing the direren
methods Of construction more clearly in one i'll
stant than could be done by pages of explana
tons.
Mr.. Frank Rivers is now canvassing this cit
and locality for subscriptions to this work, ant
we trust that he will meet with great success
The work will be sold to subscribers only, an,
those who miss this opportunity will have mucl
to regret
