1t is often remarked by strangers visiting
our State that we show larger proportion Of
good horses than any other State in the
Union. This, we tell them, is owing to two
principal reasons: in the first place, we breed
from the very best stock; and in the second
place, our people use Sheridans Cavalry Con-
ditlon Powders, which in our Judgment are
of incalculable advantage.

Dr. Schenck's Pulmonlc Syrup, Sea Weed
Tonic, and Mandrake Pills.-These medicines
have undoubtedly performed more cures Of
consumption than any other remedy known
to the American public. They are com
pounded Of vegetable Ingredients, and con-
tain nothing which can be injurious to the
human constitution. Other remedies adver-
tised as cures for Consumption, probably
contain opium, which is somewhat danger
GUS drug in all cases, and if taken freely by
consumptive patients, it must do great injury:
Tor Its tendency is to confne the morbid mat
ter in the system, which, OF course. must
make a cure impossible. Schenck's Pul-
monlc Syrup is warranted not to contain
particle Of opium: 1t is composed of power
ttul but harmless herbs, which act on the
lungs, liver, stomach, and blood, and thus
correct all morbid secretionc, and expel all
the diseased matter from the body. These
are the only means by which Consumption
can be cured, and as Schenck's Pulnonic
Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills
are the only medicines which operate in this
way, it is obvious they are the only genuine
cure tor Pulmonary Consumption. Each bot
tie of this invaluable medicine is accom-
panied by full directions DR.. Schenck is
professionally at his principal office, corner
Slvth and Arch streets, Philadelphia, every
Monday, where all letters for advice must he
addressed.

National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1876-05-08

THE crusade in the House against "free
delivery of mail matter in suburban
cities indicates that members overlook an
important feature of the postal business.
While the reports show large deliveries in
such cities, they do not show correspond
lngly large receipts for stamps and postal
cards. This discrepancy may be accouu-
ted for in sol me measure by the fact that
heads of families doing business in com
mercial cities and residing in the suburbs,
arc most likely to purchase stamps and
cards for family use at their city post Of
fees because it Is more convenient to do so,
while the family letters are delivered by
carriers at the family residence from the
local Office. No doubt this is the case with
Lynn, Mass, which was used as an Illus
tration in the debate. The Boston office.
probably furnishes large proportion of
the stamps and cards used in Lynn for rep
LEGATION to letters delivered by carriers.
These replies are also picked up mostly by
the Lynn carriers and cancelled and mailed
from the Lynn Office, and yet afford no
revenue to the Lynn post Office, but the
Department derives its proper remunera-
ton for the work done all the same as if
it was deducted from the Boston Office and
credited to the revenue of Lynn. The
same argument applies with equal if not
greater force to Brooklyn. Jersey City aud
other suburban offices. Yet this is no good
reason for deprIving these citizens of the
free delivery system.

called Republican journals of the North

refusing to fsvorably respond to Governor
Ames' demand for troops last fall, now

Republican majority in that State is 49,

icy of the Democracy. Yet the Times be-
lieves that Lamar holds his seat in the

Senate, honorably; that Senator Morton's

SOUTH CARoLISA REPUB LIcANs are
justly indignant because the politicians in
the recent Republican State convention,
contrary to instructions, elected Cham
berlain a delegate to Cincinnati We
have been shown a copy of circular
largely circulated in that State, calling q
caucus of leading Republicans to assemble
in Charleston on the Goth instant, to take
such steps as may be necessary to prevent
the admission of Chamberlain at Cincin-
matt. The circular roundly denounces
those delegates who voted for Chamber
lain, because of his assurance that, if
elected, he would commission Moses and
Whipper as judges. We also learn that
it is designed to present numerously-
signed memorial to the Cincinnati con-
vention, protesting against his admission
as delegate, because of his disreputable
antecedents. And so it has leaked out at
last that Chamberlain could only secure
his election by promising to commission
Moses and Whipper, which promises, as
might have been expected, he broke.

THERE are many conflicting statements
regarding the result OF the late Georgia
Republican State Convention. The most
reliable reports, however, show that a
majority of the delegates chosen to Gin
cinnat sr. divided in favor of Senators
Morton and Conkling, the minority being
divided between Messrs. Blaine and Bris-
tow. 1t is explained that the resolution
ofpreference for Blaine was not regularly
adopted, but passed amid great confusion,
the gas being turned of in the convention
hall, and an adjournment being declared
without the formality of a vote. Mr..
Blaine cannot be held responsible for this
disgraceful act. His friends and admirers are
not always as discreet as they should be in
the advocacy of his claims, and we regret to
say that frequent repetition of these indis-
cretions has had the effect to injure his
prospects.

COKE is Senator from Texas at last.

IT TURNS out that Custer was himself
the author Of the stories afoat few days
ago about his being ordered to his COM
mand. 1t seems that he left Washington
without informing the President, General
Sherman or any other competent superior
authority. 1t is also discovered that Gen,
Sherman never remarked that Custer was

Sherman says, possesses hundreds who
