WASHINGTON. Jan. 20.-The democratic
senators in caucus to-day agreed upon a
substitute for Edmunds resolution declar-
Ing the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments equally valid with other
amendments to the constitution. The
substitute, while recognizing the binding
force Of the amendments named, regards
Senator Edmunds resolution as proposing
legislative action in conflict with decisions
of the supreme court; particularly IN the
Cruikshank case, holding that the constitu-
ton does not confer the right to vote on
any one, but simply coniers the privilege
of freedom from any discrimination on &C.
count of race, color or previous condition.
and that the regulation of suffrage belongs
exclusively to the several states.

SCHENCK's PULMoNIC SYRUP, SEA WEED Tome

deferred physicians from attempting to find RENE
dies for that disease, and patients afflicted with
recOnCiled themselves TO death without making An
effort to escape from doom which they supposed
to be unavoidable. 1t is now proved, however.
that Consumption can be cured, and that it has
been cured in Q very great number of cases (some

good health for more than forty years, was sup
posed at one time to be at the very gate of death

by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery
many thousands similarly affected have used Dr.
Schenck's preparations with the same remarkable
