VI TIeSlueHC UTanC ADVISERS, ana large
ly Influenced the determination OF the
President and his associates to uphold
Kellogg at that time. From that day TO
this John T. Ludeling has been the
power behind Kellogg, greater than
Kellogg himself Having made Kellogg
Governor, Ludeling had a right to de-
mand his reward for that invaluable
service, and he has reaped it. The con-
nection between these two consummate
politicians Qor Ludeling is more OF a
politician than lawyer sprung out Of
the acts Of the Legislature Of 1858 and
1872, granting 81, 10, 900 in bonds Of the
State as a donation to John T.
Ludeling, John Ray and others,
under the pretence Of aiding them
in the construction Of railroad from
Shreveport to Vicksburg. At the time
of Warmoth's overthrow, in 1872, these
bonds had not all been delivered to
Ludeling. About one half Of the amount
had been reserved by Warmoth on one
pretext or another, and when KELLOGG
came into power bonds for S576, 900 re.
manned to be delivered. With these
bonds Kellogg bought Labelling and his
support rs Chief Justice. But there
was one thing Kellogg could not do for
Ludeling, and that was to validate and
give market value to these bonds. So
they put their heads together and con-
cocted what is known as the Funding
Act OF 1874, under which the LudeIing
and other bonds Of fraudulent charac-
ter might be relieved Of faint and con.
verted into new and unquestionable evil
1ences OF State Indebtedness. These

DIR. SCHENCK's PULMONIC SYRUP, SEA WEED
Tonic, AND MANDRAKE PILLs.-These medicines
have undoubtedly performed more cures of Con-
sumption than any other remedy known to the
American public. They are compounded of yegeta-
BILE ingredients, and contain nothing which can be
injurious to the human constitution Other reme-
dies advertised as cures for Consumption, probably
contain OPIUM which is somewhat dangerous drug
in all cases. and if taken freely by consumptive pa
tents, it must do great injury; for its tendency is to
confne the morbid matter to the system, which, of
course, must make cure impossible. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to contain parti-
Gle of opium. 1t is composed Of powerful but harm
less herbs, which act on the lungs, liver, stomach,
and blood, and thus correct all morbid secretions
and expel all the diseased matter from the body
These are the only means by which Consumption can
be cured, and as Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea
Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are the only medi-
cines which operate in this way it is obvious they
are the only genuine cure for Pulmonary Consump-
ton. Each bottle of this invaluable medicine is &C.
companied by full directions. DR.. Schenck is pro
fessionally at his principal Office corner Sixth and
Arch Streets, Philadelphia every Monday, where all
letters for advice must be addressed.

originality, P. 7. Barnum. Rightly concluding
that, this particular season, even such exhibi-
lions as he has been accustomed to give would
not entirely satisfy the public, and especially
those unable to visit Philadelphia, he has add
ed to show, so great that three monster spec
ial trains of his own solid steel cars are requir-
to convey it, comprehensive and inspiring
