A Cure Worth Reading and Trying.

The following very curious c0mmuui-
cation. which was written by d certain
Nh. julius Kircher, to the Journal Of
austrian ApOthgcIrieS. at Vienna, we
translate from the German for the ben
eft of those readers Of the Morning Star
who may be suffering fIum consumption
catarrh, bronchitis. or other kindred di-
seases. Mr.. Kercher writes:
I am the owner and Overseer of an
ultTamaTine factory which 1 have been
running the foTty-tour years on plan of
my own, In this factory a vast amount
of sulphur is daily used and consumed,
whereby large quantity of sUlphuric
acid IS constantly produced. During
A years not one of my WOTkmen has
contracted consumption or died of that
disease. Even those who came tainted
with the disease became healthy and
strong after working merely a few
weeks amid the vapOTs of the sulphur
eOus acid. In like manner no case of
cholera ever occurred among my employ
es. In fact all diseases produced by
microscopic animalcula soon disappear
ed in my factory, when exposed to the
action Of the sulphur 1t is well es-
tablished fact that all catarrhal affec-
tiOns are soon cured by simply inhaling
sulphuraous acid. The acid kills the
parasites that have entered and caused
the Inflammation. whereupOn the pituit-
Gus glands are opened and phlegm is eX-
PEELED without difficulty. In the same
way the little mites of the itch are kill
ed by the action Of the same acid.
1.-The discovery of bacteria in the
lungs of consumptives proves that con-
sumption, like the itch, is caused by
microscopic animalcula, which infest
and consume the lungs. As the origin
of both diseases is analogous, the Teme-
dy for each is naturally the same, name
ly, the action of sulphureOus acid which
destroys the bacteria of the lungs as
well as the mites of the itch.
1.-The treatment of all cOnsumptives
should therefore be the following: Bring
the patient to a room wherein small
quantities of sulphur (abOut one or two
dTachms) are burnt every hour on hot
stove or over a light flame, The inhal-
ing of the sulphur vapoI will sOoa ef-
feet the comfort of the parasites CT bac-
teIia in the lungs. As a consequence,
the patient will cough OfteneT and eX-
pectorate cOpiously. After eight to ten
days the irritation and eXpeCtOTation
will entirely cease. because the bacteria
will die off gradually. Thus the iTrita-
ton on the lungs. membranes and seTi-
ous fluids are stopped, and the patient Is
put on the way of complete recovery.
Afterwards it is well TO remove the pa
tient to place where he can inhale the
vapors OF aromatic water. Ny wish is
that my observations and experience of
many years may be made known. and
that this often tried and always success
full remedy may benefit suffering human
itY.H

trade is improved also and there is q
promise OF better prices than for some

t8 HARPER's FERRY.-On Monday last
delegation OF prominent citizens OF our
county visited Washington for the pur-
pose of comforting with the Secretary of
War and Attorney General relative to the
Improvement of the Shenandoah naviga-
ton and also with the Hon. X. RaynOr,
Solicitor OF the Treasury, relative to the
sale Of the Water Power at Harper's Fer

Edward TeaIney, j, Cavalier, 7. W.
Beale, l.. \. Montague, j. G, Cockreli,
Alex. Murphy, j. Garland Hurst, r. Eau
and Rev. G. A. Trump. They succeeded
in getting the title papers OF the old NAY
igation Company referred TO the Attorney
General for lis opinion, and as soon us
that is returned 10 the Secretary Of War,
she matter will be in such 4 shape as TO
make the 600 appropriation available.
We can safely predict that III very short
time the work of improving the naviga-
ton will begin. The delegation had d
lengthy conference with Judge Raynor,
the Solicitor of the Treasury, and in a
very short time succeeded in convincing
him that lease of the Water Power ~
IIarper's Ferry would be Of decided in
jury 10 the people of the town and as their
only hope Went IN the direction of sale
of the property and its development by
capitalists. After a full and free discus
sion of the rights of the people OF the town
and the Government, Judge Raynor gave
the delegation 20 understand that lie
would take immediate steps TO put the
property OH the market and dispose OF II.
