In the localities which have suffered
SO severely from the yellow fever, its
decline cannot be expected to bring i'm
mediate happiness. The suflerings from
the plague must be only a little less toll
cradle than the enumeration of the de-
tails of it's ravagcs, and this mournful
duty must now be taken up by the des-
olated households of the southern peo-
pie. In the places where it has been
most destructive, words fail to express
the sorrow and despair of the stricken
people. In Memphis, u city OF $4,000
people, the deaths have not been less
than 5000, or perhaps one in fifteen of
the population. This is the result Of
three months of sickness, and only sta
ting it in the aggregate, but when the
details are enumerated, if they ever are,
it will form one of the most pitifal pages
of history. Families have been literally
swept away, parents and children. In
Memphis there are houses standing
empty, having neither tenants nor land
lord. But these cases are less Distress
ing than those where only one or two
out of u family survive. What cheer
is it to them that the frost has come,
and the wheels of commerce once more
rcvolvc? They look ont upon the once
more bllstling street, and as they see
the strange faces in the familiar places
of their friends, they turn once more
to their own great sorrow in it's sharp
ness and bitterness and drop the scald-
ing tears of despair. The instances in
which whole households have been
swept away would fill volume; and

Sch enek's Pu1naonie Syrup, Sea Weed
Tonic, AND MANDRAKE PILLS Those deserV-
cdly celebrated and popular medicines nave
effected a revolution in the beaIing art, ana
proved the fallacy of several maxiums when
have for many years INSTRUCTED the progress OF
medical science. The false suppostion that
consumption is incurable deferred physl-
clans from attempting to find remedies Tor tnat
disease, and patients afflicted with 1t reconclled
themselves to death without making an ehort
to escape from a doom which they supposed to
be unavoidable. 1t is now proved, however,
that consumption can be cured, and that 1t has
been cured in very great number OF cases,
some of them apparently desperate ones by
Schenck' g Pulmonic Syrup alone and in other
cases by the same medicine in connection with
Schenck Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,
one both, according to the requirements of
the case.
DR. Schencll himself who enjoyed uninter-
rupted good health for more than forty years,
was supposed at one time to be at the very gate
of death, his phys icians having pronounced his
case hopeless and abandoned him to his rate
He was cured by the aforesaid medicines. and,
since his recovery, many thousands sim ilarly
affected have used DIR. Schenck's preparations
with the same remarkable success.
Full directions accompany each, making 1t
not absolutely necessary to personally see DIR.
Schenck unless patients wish their lungs ex-
arIined, and for this purpose he is profession
ally at his principal Office, Corner Sixth and
Arch Sts., Philadelphia, every Monday, where
ali letters for advice must be addressed.
Schenck's medicines are sold by all druggists.

W. E. CHANDLER, who essayed the
task of demolishing the president and
his cabinet, has not met with an aston
ishing degree of success. Several of
those whom he declared were leagued
together with the president to overthrow
the Packard and Chamberlain govern
ments, and destroy the Republican par
ty, have denied connection with any
such scheme, and the whole story is re-
garded, except among a few disappoint-
eel politicians, like Chandler himself,
as wholly unworthy of serious notice.
1t is simply . rehash of political gossip
eight months old. The abandoning of
the Packard and Chamberlain govern
ments by President Hayes, so far as
military support was concerned, was
something which President Grant had
determine upon and was only prevented
from carrying out from the expiration of
his official term. The measure was de-
manded not only by the whole Demo
cratic party, but by very large number
if not the majority, of the Republican
party; and was simply the acceptance of
the logic of events. What folly then to
pretend that there was any thing like
corruption in it Men who can Law no
better claim to political sagacity or hon
esty than to promulgate such weak and
improbable stories should speedily be
retired trom party leadership, if not
from public life.
