CoNsUMPTIvKs TAKE NoTICE.-Every moment
Of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and
much depends on the judicious choice OF remedy.
The amount Of testimony in favor Of DR.. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup, as cure for consumption, far
exceeds all that can be brought to support the
pretensiOns Of any other medicine. See DIR.
Schenek's Almanac, containing the certificates Of
many persons Of the highest responsibility who
have been restored to health, after being pro-
nounced ineurabls by physicians Of acknowledged
ability. Schenck's PulmOnic Syrup alone has
cured many, as these evidences will show; but
the cure is often promoted by the employment Of
two other remedies which DIR. Schenck provides
for the purpose. These additional remedies are
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills.
By the timely use Of these medicines, according
to directions, DIR. Schenek certihes that most any
case Of Consumption may be cured.
DR.. Scbenck Is professionally at his principal
office, corner Sixth and Arch streets, PhIladel-
phis, every Monday, where all letters for advice
must be addressed.

Those eminent men, DIR. James CLARK, physician
to Queen Victoria, and DR.. Hughes Bennett,
say that consumption can be cured. DR.. Wistar
knew this when he discovered his now widely
known Balsam Of Wild Cherry, and experience
has proved the correctness OF his opinion. Fifty
cheaper.

TO WRITE TIE LETTER OF RETRAcTIoN.

Theodore Tilton had ten days to prepare his
statement, and had access TO all the correspond
enee in II. He states that after Beecher lefE
Moulton's the night Of the Interview he CAM 10
1iltons house, and he puts words In his mouth
in the statement which amounted TO the eonfe.-
sion Of his guilt. Mrs. Tilton was In bed asleep
when TfltOn returned that night. Her nurse
was sleeping with her. She aHoke hearing TIL.

She stayed in the next room, and heard
Tilton In angry tones forcing his wife to sign
the explanation Of her letter OF retrae-
tion, saying that Beecher had extorted
the retraction from her. Beecher had Tiltoa in
his power when he obtained the letter Of retrae-
ton, and could have crushed him with Il had he
wished, and TIlton finding he was In Bsecher's
power obtained the letter from Mrs. Tllton 10
Moulton, asking him to get the letter OF retrac-
ton from Beecher, as she wished to burn IT.
Moulion, armed with this letter. went TO Beecher
for the letter Of retraction. Beecher asked what
he should do II the retraction was given up.

They would show them by the testimony OF A.
man whose word was not questioned that AFTER
the publication Of the Woodruff scandal Tilton
showed to him tho paper which he said was q
copy Of the document shown Beeoher on the
night OF 30th December. This man asked TIlton

THIS witness conduct as 70 when he got the letter
or in what manner, but Il was important as to the
credibllity Of his statement ard as to the amount
BELIEB TO BE PLACED IN HIS TESTIMONY.
Was the friendship Of Moulton to Beschsr q
sincere one AFTER the former testifying that he
had been friend OF TilIons since his school days
and when he learned Of Mr.. Beecher dsbauehing
his friends wife?
1t had been freely asked how could Mr..
Beecher apologize to husband who brought Q
false charge against him. But this oontiny ency
tirely dropped tho charge OF Improper advances.
and neither then, nor ever afterward alluded to
Il; but using the language and manner OF q gen.
tlemRn, and pledging his word Of honor to the
truth OF what he said, he found no difficulty In
convincing MIR. Beeeher that the unhappy
little woman who, as he we'll knew, and as
her husband know, had always loved
Mr.. Beecher with . reverential affection
had been nIsled by his fattering attentions and
sympathetic interest into an actual passion for
him which had destroyed her domestic peace, and
the struggle between which and her sense Of
duty had shattered her mind. That this was the
fact we have already shown that Mr. Beeeher
was made fully to believe; and did not thIs afford
q more satisfactory explanation Of her mysterious
charge than his previous supposltiOa that It was
extorted from herby her cruel husband Nothing
was more natural than that Q woman whose mind
was shaken BY this cause should imagine that
the object OF her love had solicited her affection;
nothing more natural than that IN an hour or re.
morse and Of mental prostration she should
confess her own passion, and assert that she not
only loved but had bad been loved. For where Is
the woman living who will freely confess that
she has loved without encoursg cement and with
out solicitation This supposed state Of facts
cleared up the whole mystery, explained the
whole disaster to the family, and relieved the
husband from all Suspicious Of conspiracy against

TENNESSEE ART.
A Memphis Painters Contribution 10
line Centennial Exhibition.

Lhe Centennial Exhibition.
To the Union and American:
ST. Louis. May -, 1STj.-There has
la ely been placed on exhibition az Hard
ing's gallery in 81. Louis, a "Head Of
Christ by Paul Gulherz, the Memphis ar
list. The work will be entered at the Cen
tcuuicl Exhibition, and there is no reason
10 doubt that the already euviable Tcputa-
ton of the young artist will be increased
by the exposition Of this picture, which is
one Of special excellence. The treatment
of the subject differs, however, in some i'm
poriaut respects from the Oscillations of
nearly all other ar lists who have wrought out
their conceptions of the man Of s0rruws.
This Christ seems risen above the world
grief i'm a moment of sOlemnly triumphant
strength, and he is looking out far beyond
the present with its coil Of agony; the cross
upon his shoulders, though large and heavy,
does not weigh him down, aud the thorn
crown rests above a brow which is serene,
and almost radiant. Hardly could this be
called gan Ecce Homo, so much
of tie divine as has been
transfXed in the subject. A keen sus-
ceptibllity 10 human pain is expressed in
the nervous, delicate organism, which at
tie moment is all i'm allegiance to the req
nant spirit. The figure is painted in
shadow, the only light which is introduced
into the picture, being that Of the auerole.
with IFS rays appearing from behind the
head. The background Of the picture Is
blue, and the robe Of the Christ a deep YER
million, with border at the neck Of
Grecian lines. Around an inner portion of
the frame, which is matted with black vel
vet, is wTeajhe! a twist Of gilded thorn
branches. These are natural, having been
gathered from the woods in Illinois; the
little blisters Of the bark are plainly dis
cemible in the bright gliding; and the
numerous thpruS are as sharp as ever grew
without golden cover. Another svmbol-
ism appears I'M the form Of three large
spikes driven into the frame, forming a tri-
angle. 4 high degree of idealistiC quality
in treatment which appears to mark this
artists work in general, is in tins case the |
more noticeable, as appearing in picture
where there IS something Of a deviation
from the long established general manner
Of regarding this subject. Whatever view
critics may take Of the matter as concerns
the motif, the work is not likely TO be
thought in any sense a common one.

ATHRIFTY VIRGINIAN.

Some Of the ex-COufedelates belonging
to MahOne's Brigade, who had a reunion
in Petersburg, Va, last week, naturally
wished TO visit "lhe crater" where some
of their brayest and most perilous fight
igg was done. The result is thus described
by the Norfolk TiTgbliul: "When nearing
the famous hole, the party was halted By
a man who claims to own the place, who
threatens to blow out the brains ofthe first
man who tTespassed upon his premises He
was talking to men who had been sEOs at
and shot before, and who didEOt relish such
talk. The consequences o him, might have
been serious, had not a gentleman Of the
party, one Of our tOwnsmen, asked
how much was to be paid for stepping on
the holy ground. He was answered,
twenty-five cents for each person. which
was promptly paid, and the party proceeded
without further mOlestatiOn." This thrifty
individual is a Virginian, a native Of
Prince George county,
