CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED.
SoHENoK's PULMoNIc SYRUP,
SoHENoK's SEA WEED TONIC.
SCHENoK's MANDRAKE PILLS
e Are the only medicines that will cure Pu. monsry
Consumption.
Frequently medicines that will stop cough will
occasion the death OF the patient; they lock up the
stop the circulation of the blood, hemorrhage
follows, and in facthey clog the action of the very
orr ans that caused the cough
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
Of lWo-thlrds OF the cases of Consumption. Many
persons comDlain of dull pain in the side, con-
Etipation, coated tongue, pain in the shouderblade
feelings of drowsiness and restlessness, the food
lying heavily on the stomach, accompanied Witl
acldity and belching up Of wind.
These symptoms usually originated from disor
dered condition of the stomach or a torpid liver
Persons so affected II they take one or two heay,
colds and If the congh in these cases be suddenly
checked, will find the stomach and liver clogged
remaining torpid, and inactive, and almost befor,
they are aware the lungs are mass of Sores anC
liberated, the re- ult of which is death.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup Is an expectorant which
does not contain opium or anything calculated t.
cheek q cough suddenly.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic dissolves the food
mixes with the gastric juices of the stomach aids
digestion and creates a rsvenous appetite.
When the bowels are costive, skin sallow, or tn
symptom otherwise of bilious tendency ,Schenck'
Mandrake Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only by

Writes to Gov. Hayes and Gov. T1Iden.
COLUMBUS, Ohio Dec. 99.-Judge
Mackey. of South Carolina, is here, bring
ing the following letter from Wade Hamp-
ton to Governor Hayes:
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
COLUMBIA, : c., Dec. %, 1876,
DEAR SIR have the honor to en-
close copy of my Inauguration as the
duly elected governor of South Carolina.
Iu view of current events and the official
sanction given to the gross misrepresenta
ton of the acts and purposes of the ma
jority of the good people of this common
wealth, | deem it proper TO declare that
profound peace prevails throughout this
state; that the course of judicial proceed
ings is obstructed by no combination of
citizens thereof, and that the laws for the
protection of its inhabitants in all their
rights OF pers)D. property, and citizenship
are being enforced in the courts. While
| the people of this state are not wanting
either in the spirit or means to maintain
their rights OF citizenship against the u.s.
urped power which now defies the sup
rene judicial authority of the state, they
have snch faith IN the justice of their
cause that they propose to leave its vim
dication to the legal tribunals, appealing
at the same time to the patriotism and
public sentiment OF the whole country.
The inhammatory utterances of portion oi
the public press render it perhaps not in.
opportune for me to state that although
the people of South Carolina view with
grave concern the prospect of an intricate
copjuncture of affairs of our country which
threatens the subject to extreme test the
republican system OF government itself, il
is their firm and deliberate purpose to con.
demn any solution OF the existing political
problems that involves the exhibition oi
armed force or that moves through any
other channel than the prescribed forms oi
the constitution or the peaceful agencies ol
law. Trusting that a solution may be had
which, while maintaining the peace of the
country, shall do no violence to the con
stitutional safeguards of popular rights
and will tend still more firmly to unite ths
4 people of all the states in the earnest eff
for. to preserve the peace, to sustain thu
laws and the constitution, [ am. very res
pectfully, your obedient servant.

readily from grave to gay, from lively
to severe. We hope gracious Provi
dence will continue to protect our
