The standard remedies for all diseases Of
the lungs are ScHEEcK's PULMoNIC SYRUP,
SCHENCK's SEA WEED Tonic and SCHENcK's
MANDRAKE PItLs, and, If taken before the lungs
are destroyed, speedy cure is effected.
To these three medicines DIR. ]. H. Schenck, OF
Philadelphia, owes his unrlvaled success in the
treatment Of pulmonary diseases.
The Pulmonic Syrup ripens the morbid matter
in the lungs; nature throws II of by an easy eI-
pectoration, for when the phlegm OF matter is
ripe slight cough will throw It of, the patient
has rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To enable the Pulmonic Syrup to do this
Schenck's Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea
Weed Tonic must be freely used to cleanse the
stomach and liver. Schencks Mandrake Pills
act on the liver, removing all distractions, relax
the gell bladder, the bile starts freely, and the
SeheneS s Sea seq Weed Tonic is a gentle stimu-
liant and Alternative; the alkali, OF which it is
composed, mixes with the food and prevents soyr-
ing. 1t assists the digestion by toning up ths
stomach TO healthy Condition, 80 that the fOoq

Thanks to the Governor.

Some time since delegation, represent
ing the police jury of the parish Of Ascen-
sion, called ON Governor kellogg for the
purpose of urging him to sign an act passed
by the last Legislature, entitled ian act
relative to funding the floating indebted
ness of the parish of Ascension, and author
izipg the issuance Of bonds for the same;
fixing the duties of parish officers, and pro-
viding penalties for violations of the same"
The Governor, it appears, had read the bill
carefully, aud was convinced it was not
good one; that, in fact, his approval OF it
would be prejudicial to the best interests OF
the taxpayers of the parish, and for that
reason had determined not to sign it. The
delegation not being satisfied that the Gov
ernor was right in the matter, endeavored
to overcome his objections, and ended their
argument by renewing their request OF bis
approval OF the bill. But the Governor
was still firm in his purpose, and advised
the delegation to return to their parish and
have the police jury thereof call
meeting of the taxpayers for the
purpose of ascertaining their views upon
the subject, promising to be governed by
their decision IN the premises. The dele
CATION followed the Governors advice, and
the result is that the meeting has been
held and resolutions passed sustaining bis
views of the bill. A copy of these resolu-
tons have been forwarded to the Governor,
signed by a large number of the best men
and largest property holders in the parish
among them j. Burnside, John A. Steven
son. 4. T. Hanson and D. F. X enner.
The last resolution provides that com
mittee Of two be appointed to present
copy Of these resolutions to the Governor
and express to him the thanks of the meet
ing for having protected the interests o.
the taxpayers of the parish OF Ascension II
not approvi wing the bill in question.

Coming Home 10 R0ost.

The New Orleans Picayaae recently con-
tanned most absurd article, purporting to
give an account of a diaboiical plot 1or :
negro rising in that city on the fourth OF
July. The details were of the most startllp
and revolving character. and were well cal
culate6 to produce the most fearful appre.
hensioh among the credulous and tlmid, not
only in New Orleans, but in every Southern
community. Even had there been, says the
Savannah Ners, any real foundation for the
statement of the Picay,t,ae, the article would
have been extremely injudicious, but as
hoax, whlch 1t seems to have been, it was
most absurd and lnexcusable. From the
Times OF the first Instant we learn that the
fearful story of the Picayu,,e was without
the slightest foundations; that it was can
ard got up by member of the city police
whether white or black is not etated-and
imposed on a silly reporter. We confess
our surprise that SO respectable a journal as
diary article in its columns.-Aemphts Ap-
