This paper contains the following: The Indianapolis Herald having expressed a desire to know where the moneys of Governor Morton’s Financial Bureau arc kept, the Journal suggests to the venerable ex-judge, who edits the Herald that the best way to find out whether public moneys have ever been used for purposes of private speculation is to inquire of W. of W.H. Talbott, esq., president of the sinking fund; John M. Lord, esq., formerly agent of State; Aquilla Jones, esq., formerly Treasurer of State; John C. Walker, late Agent of State, and major general in the Sons of Liberty, and Hon. D. 0. Stover, formerly clerk in charge of the Indiana State agency at New York. As the public is also doubtless interested in tliis branch of knowledge, it might be well for him to tell what lie knows about the privilege accorded to a late Supreme judge, of borrowing money from banks upon his own name and without indorsement, at six per cent, interest, and upon what condition such privilege was extended. “ All of the above gentlemen are distinguished leaders of the Confederate Democracy, and will, no doubt, take pleasure in gi\ ing tbe desired information.” To this article we answer now that the people are interested in present official malconduct, and that those now in power must not expect to divert attention from themselves by raising the cry of stop thief on somebody else. As to John C. Walker, the Journal, of this city, not long ago, admitted he settled his accounts witli the State and fully paid up. As to his treason, he like Dodd, was intimate with Morton while committing it, if they committed any. As to W. II. Taliiott, esq., lie is the President of the Rcpubli'an Sinking Fund Board, whoso conduct is now being investigated by a Republican committee. We await the report of the committee. As to Stover, Morton and R. X. Hudson are more intimate with his affairs than we pretend to ho. As to a late judge being accommodated in borrowing money, we know nothing about any ease where a judge borrowed money on any terms different from anybody else. The editor of the JburnuZ can examine the banks on the subject. They would know: we do not; if we did we would inform the Journal. As to AQuilla Jones, ho received the wrecks of the public properly from the Republican Know Xotbimr officers Collins, Taliiott A: Co., whom Morton left ids party to aid in electing, and was,perhaps, personally subjected to some loss, but lie settled all up like an honest man. We should like much to review the Collins, Taliiott A Co. administration. As to Captain Loup, it is very remarkable that these Republicans havejust thought, after a lapse of vears, to assail him. ^ ^ TIic Journal, Julian, Etc. Johnson declares Ji i.mn. istkvkns, Sumner & Co., as we understand him, to be traitors, as bad as Jeff. Davis, Julian, in a speech in Congress, extractsfrom which we published a while ago, declared Johnson toffio « yreal criminal, etc. Now, here arc the two men,, at sword’s points; denouncing each other as traitors and criminals on account of their political action, both of them being, at the time, acting officially in the administration of the Government. Roth of them can not be right. They light each other, because each holds the other to be not only wrong, but criminally icrony. They refuse to support each other. Now, what does the Journal, what does Morton do? Why they support Julian; go for his re-election to Congress, denounce the friends of Johnson for trying to defeat his rcclection, whereby he might be prevented from going back to Congress to aid in impeaching Johnson, and yet say they support Johnson too!—that they support both Julian and Johnson—support two masters, and two directly opposite doctrines, though the Bible says that can not be done. How is this? Why does the Journal denounce the Johnson men for aiding to defeat Julian? The Democrats will act in good faith. They will he tolerant in voting for Johnson men, without regard to antecedents, if Republicans will reciprocate the liberality. Why does the Journal, why does Morton, denounce this, if they are the friends of Johnson? Do they thus desert General Meredith? Do they wish to see him humbled and disgraced by the re-election of Julian? How is this to be explained? When we ask this question of the Republicans, wc get no answer but this: they say they do not understand it*but that Morton is preparing a great speech, which will appear in a few days, that will explain the whole thing, that it is to he a perfect socdolagcr; that it will settle Johnson; settle Congress; settle reconstruction; settle everybody and everything; settle the Republican party; smash up the Democrats, end all controversies; put all things under Morton’s feet; dispense with the Herald, and alfthat. Thus they tell us. Very well; we shall wait with breathless anxiety for its appearance. All things earthly will then know their fate. In the meantime, we must try to sell out the Herald!

Assaults on Judge BickncII. The Republican press denounce Judge Bicknei.l and the jury of Floyd county because Dr. Xewi.and was acquitted of the murder of Evans. The provocation upon which Newland acted was the seduction and ruin of his daughter by Evans under peculiarly aggravating circumstances. This provocation has been hold ground for acquittal in every ease of the kind that we recollect of in the United States for a number of years past. We take it that no husband who kills the seducer of his wife : no father who kills the seducer of his daughter; no brother who kills the seducer of liis sister, the act of killing following immediately upon, and being instigated by the information of such seduction, will ever be punished by a court or jury in the United States. The American precedents to the contrary are becoming too numerous and uniform on the point to lie departed from, especially as they harmonize with the natural feelings of the mass of the people upon the point. The only reason that the Republican papers wanted Newland hung was that he was a Democrat, and the seducer he slew a noisy Republican political preacher; and the only reason why they assail Bicknei.l, a very learned judge, and the jury, is that they were Democrats. The Republicans charge that the trial was partisan. Thi* charge comes with an ill grace from a party so many of whoso courts are notoriously partisan machines of very marked movement. The City Bond*. Supposing the vote of the city, on Saturday, to have been m favor of the issue of railroad bonds, there remains but one very important point to be watched further, and that is, that the roads do not get the bonds; that the bonds, or the money for them, lx; not parted with by the city, till the roads are completed lo the required extent. Generally, in these cases, where cities and counties have issued bonds, they have been gotten out of the hands of those issuing them, and sold to bona Jide purchasers, so that the cities, etc., had to pay them, while the roads were never built. Hence, in almost cver^jnstanee of such subscriptions, lawsuits/Apts, unrequited burdens upon the people ^^e occurred, without the advantage of the roads. Avoid this.

The Brookvllle Soldiers’ Convention. One of the wire working schemes of the Republicans is to get up Republican soldiers’ conventions, in hopes of thus turning them over to the Republican ticket. They held one in Brookvllle, which seems to have been, according to the account of it In the Democrat—u very tame affair. Captain FarquhaR made h speech to his “ comrades in arms.” The comrades in arms are a different set of fellows from comrades in battle! For example, as the Democrat says, the Captain’s comrades In arms were Morton, Carrington, Terrell, Noble,etc., but he never had any comrades in battle; at least, our recollection is that the Captain was not’along when Carrington took Judge Constable. The convention, we learn, went the Congress chute against Johnson, and the Captain came out for negro suffrage. One of the nominees of the convention publishes the following card: “ To the People of Franklin County: “ I understand that the soldiers’ convention which met in Brookville on the 12th instant, placed iny name on their ticket as candidate for sheriff. I wish to say to my friends that I am now and always have been a Democrat, and 1 am not disposed to break ranks with the old party at this time, and hence must decline the nomination thus tendered me. Some over ardent friends, at least they pretend to be friends, have presented my name to the voters of the county, not.for the purpose of electing me, but to breed’ discord in the Democratic ranks, to which party they know I have always belonged. ••Godfrey II. Siebenthaler. “GENERAL KIMBALL. “In his speech here last Saturday, he was for President Johnson and Congress both, and tried to make the people believe that there was very little difference between Congress and the President, in their policies. When the general was nominated, the Republican convention attempted to indorse both Congress and the President, and true to his platform he is trying to carry it out. But Republicans can not be gulled in this way. As some of them, after hearing his speech, said there was a devil of a smoke among them, it there was no difference, as the general said. “General Gresham was called upon and addressed the meeting. His speech was principally a rehash of the slanders uttered oy the Republican leaders and their papers during the war.”—PrtoH Eagle. Is General Gresham for Morton ? Does he stand by his former expressed opinions of him? Wc pause for a reply.

Scene in Bothcklld’a Bank. Enter an American official. Rothchild sitting at a tabic writing. He is an aged German Jew, with wrinkled, yellow, and withered face, speaking broken English: Rothchild—Sit down, sir, You’s from Indiana, I b’leves. American Official—Yes, sir.

Ise man o’ bisness. i Turns to writing. American leaves.) ^ ^ Book Notlcea. An Argument Submitted to the Secretary of the Treasury, May, IStti, by Henry R. Selden, Rochester, New York. Mr. Selden, the author of this argument, was for a time, reporter for the Court of Appeals of New York, and finally succeeded his brother, Samuel L. Selden, on the bench, as a member of that court. Mr. Selden has no superior as a lawyer in the United States. The argument above mentioned, was upon this question: “Can an obligation for the payment of ‘gold or silver coin,’ be discharged by a tender of treasury notes?” The case arose thus: In 1S60, Mr. Osborn contracted to erect a court house in Baltimore, for a fraction less than $113,000, to be paid in “good and lawful money of the coin of the United States.” The building was erected in 1802-3, and Mr. OSBORN was paid in legal tender notes, as being coin, though they were actually worth only about fifty cents on the dollar. Osborn received them under protest. He now claims the difference, and he ought to have it. The fo'sting upon her creditors, a depreciated, half value currency, by the Government, is the most disgraceful species of repudiation; and, if treasury n»tes are coin, or of the exact dollar >aliio of coin, and can be tendered >" payment, on coin contracts, they enn he tendered on Government Ixmd contracts, and surely the Government bond bolder is entitled, in this particular, to no favoritism over the Government labor contractor. While on the Court of Appeal bench, Judge Seldon held the legal tender treasury note law unconstitutional, and we think this is becoming to be_thc opinion of the ablest jurists throughout the country; but, in this argument he waives that question, and contends that Osborn was entitled, if paid in legal tenders, to receive as many of them as the coin he was entitled to lie paid would purchase. It does seem to us his argument is unanswerable. Indeed, there can be but one answer made to it, and that is the answer ot the armed robber to the appeal of his helpless victim; it is the answer of power it is this answer: “I am able to rob you and am determined to exert my power, and I don’t wish to be annoyed by talk about right and justice.” We have not space, of course, to epitomize the argument of Judge Seldon, making a pamphlet of thirty two pages; but we shall watch, with interest, the effect of it upon the Treasury Department, and shall feel anxious to learn whether Osborn gets justice done him, or is left to the ruin which the doing of $113,000 worth of work for $50,000 brought upon him. The American Law Register, for May, 1860, By 1). B. Canfield & Co., Philadelphia and II. N. Hibbard & Co., Chicago. This has become a very valuable, and almost indispensible publication to tbe practicing lawyer. It has a corps of seven editors located in different parts of the United States. It contains articles on elementary subjects, and late loading decisions, learnedly annotated and justly criticised. The Twenty-fourth Volume of Indiana Reports. By Benjamin Harrison, A. M., Official Reporter. Printed by Douglass & Connor, Indianapolis. A new volume of our reports is always looked for by the bar with anxiety, and is purchased, of course, by every practicing lawyer, as a matter of necessity, without regard to the question of merit. It is a fortunate thing for a court that it has a careful, intelligent and accurate reporter. The reputation of a court is much in the reporter’s power. We can say, most truthfully, that the present volume establishes beyond dispute, the merits of General Harrison as a reporter. The points are well stated in the syllabus of each cose, the case itself carefully and accurately printed, so that full justice is done to the judges. The reporter has fully discharged his duty in the premises. The mechanical execution of the work is good. The volume is a credit to the mechanical skill of the city. Of the contents of the volume, we shall not speak critically. The opinions of the judges are prepared with elaboration; though the volume contains no ease of new and peculiar importance. It was a misfortune to Indiana when her judiciary became, by the very mode of its election, partisan. Judicial ejections ought to have taken place at different times from the political elections, and portions of the judges should have been, by the law of the State, elected at different periods, or for different lengths of term, so that a'politically divided judicial bench should, at least, have constituted the court of last resort. It is to be regretted that it is, in our State, as it is. The contents of the present volume overrule considerable of what has been law heretofore, and make considerable for the present, which will be overruled, as law, some time .hereafter.

Hunt’s Merchants’ Magazine, for May186$. No. «0 Wtittam street; New YorkT The reputation of this old standard commercial and banking journal is too well established and widely known to require us to say anything of its current numliers further than that they sustain the established character of the work. It devotes considerable space to the analysis of railroad reports, the condition of the debts and resources of the States, and the questions of currency generally. Bankers, railroad men, merchants, politicians, and the general reader, find the work useful.

John C. Calhoun. Mr. Dana, the present editor of the Chicago Republican, one of the most radical autiJohnson papers in the country, in the Nexo American Cyclopedia, gives the biography and character of John C. Calhoun. He makes him an able man, a pure patriot, and a real Union man in sentiment and feeling. What Calhoun did, Dana declares he did for the purpose of saving the Union; he thought his course was the most effective and just one for meeting and defeating the disunionistsof the North. We invite all to read the sketch of Calhoun in* the Cyclopedia, bearing in mind, at the time, that it was drawn by a bitter political opponent of the great Southerner. We now extract from the Dayton Empire what Mr. Clay said of Mr. Calhoun, and what Mr. Webster said of him, in speeches in the United States Senate, on the occasion of his death. Mr. Clay said: “ No man with whom I have ever been acquainted exceeded him in habits of temperance and regularity, and in all the freedom, frankness and affability of social intercourse, and in all the tenderness, and respect, and affection which he manifested towards that lady who now mourns more than any other the sail event which has just occurred. “Such, Mr. President, was the high estimate I formed of his trauscendant talents, that if at the end of his service in the Executive Department, under Mr. Monroe’s administration, the duties of which he performed with such signal ability, he had been called to the highest office in the Government, I should have felt perfectly assured that under his auspices, the honor, the prosperity, the glory of our country would have been safely placed. * * * When, Mr. President, will that great vacaney which has been created by the event to which we are now alluding, when will it be filled by an equal amount of ability, patriotism and devotion to what he conceived to be the best interests of his country.” Mr. Webster said of him: “ From that day to the day of his death, (May, 1865,) amid all the strifes of party and politics, there has subsisted between us, always and without interruption, a great degree of personal kindness. * * * * His demeanor as a Senator is known to us all—is appreciated, venerated by us all. No man was more respectful to others; no man carried himself with greater decorum, no man with superior dignity. I think there is not one of us but felt when he last addressed us (rom his seat in the Senate, his form still erect, with a voice by no means indicating such a degree of physical weakness as did in fact possess him, with clear tones, and an impressive, and I may say an imposing manner, who did not feel that he might imagine that we saw before us a Senator of Rome, when Rome survived. ***** Ji r . president, he had the basis, the indispensable basis, of all high character; and that was, unspotted integrity—uniinpeached honor and character. If be bad aspirations, they were high and honorable and noble. There was nothing groveling. or low, or meanly selfish, that came near the head or heart of Mr. Calhoun. Firm in his purpose, perfectly patriotic and honest, as I am sure he was, in the principles that he espoused and the measures that he defended, aside from that large regard for that species of distinction that conducted him to eminent stations for the benefit of the republic, I do not believe he had a selfish motive or a selfish feeling. “However, sir, he may have differed from others of us in his political opinions, or his political prineiples, thosa principles and those opinions will now destTnd 'o posterity, under the sanction of a great name. He has lived long enough, he has done enough, and he has done it so well, so successfully, so honorably', as to connect himself for ail time with the records of his country. We shall hereafter, 1 am sure, indulge In it as a grateful recollection, that we have lived in his age, that we have been his cotemporaries, that wc have seen him, and heard him and known him. We shall delight to speak of him to those who :ire rising up to fill our pla« es. And when the time shall come, when we shall go, one after another, in succession to our graves, we shall carry with us a deep sense of his genius and character, his honor and integrity, his amiable deportment in private life, and the purity of his exalted patriotism.” Imagine Cicero and Cato speaking thus of Lucius Cataline in the Roman Senate! And yet John Caldwell Calhoun is the great exalted character whom Montgomery Blair dares to eall “ the Cataline of the South’! ’’

be Bade Odious.

To accomplish this desirable end all the traitors, all the lawless men, ballot box staffers and mobocrats, must be kept before the people. To aid in doing this, we copy the following article from the New Y«rk World: “ We copy trom the Cincinnati Commercial in interesting recital, proving, by the clearest evidence, that Mr. Chase, when Governor of Ohio, resisted the execution of the fugitive slave act on State rights grounds, and that he was not only prepared, but that he endeavored to precipitate an armed collision with the Federal Government. The facts stated in the article which wc copy have incited us to investigate Mr. Chase’s record on the State rights question in such documents as happen to he within easy reach, and we find so much corroborative evidence as to justify the assertion that few ol our public men have adhered to that decried doctrine with more tenacity than the present Chief Justice. It is not surprising, therefore, that he has evinced so persistent a reluctance to preside at the trial of Jefferson

Davis.

“Before commenting on the article from the Cincinnati Commercial, or producing any of the confirmatory evidence which a hasty search has enabled us to find, wc will explain the bearing of Mr. Chase’s record on the impending trial. If the facts had only a biographical interest they would be worth no prominence. But if they are relevant to the most important State trial ever likely to occur in this country, the space we devote to them will not, perhaps, be wasted. “ Let no one suspect us of the absurdity of trying to maintain that Chief Justice Chase is bound, in the exercise of his judicial functions, by his former opinions on constitutional questions. If he has come to see the fallacy of arguments by which he was once convinced, it is entirely proper that those arguments should have no further hold upon his mind. But the fact that he once thought them solid, nevertheless extenuates, if it does not quite absolve.

lect cnougl States, and who has given his best years to the study of legal and constitutional questions, was a strenuous adherent to the State rights theory, the reasons in support of it must, though sophistical, be specious enough to extenuate the error of those whom Chief Justice Chase may he called to try. This topic could be handled with great effect before a Southern “ y if the Chief Justice himself was for years a State rights man; if, when Governor of Ohio, he was ready and eager to dare a conflict with the General Government in opposition to a Federal law, and in resistance to Federal officers, no theory consistent with his uprightness could make the same thing a heinous crime in others. He may, indeed, have been in error, and have recanted; but his example proves that the error is such as an honest man may entertain, and such as a public officer thinking himself loyal may act upon. The trial of Mr. Davis by a judge of Mr. Chase’s antecedents will have no great tendency either to explode the State rights theory, or to render armed opposition to the Federal Government odious. The personal obstacle to Chief Justice Chase’s presiding m the treason trial can not be more fitly expressed than in the language of Scripture: “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man that judgest; for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.” To perceive how closely this applies to the Chief Justice, as related to the Davis trial, it is only necessary to attend to the evidence ot his former adherence to the Southern doctrine. Tfce Cincinnati Commercial says, in the article we copy, tjiat Mr. Chase “ advised President Lincoln to let Uje slave States go rather than resort bo armed coefcjqn, which was in violation of the State rights theory he had preached all bis life, from the case of Jones vs. Van Zandt in McLean’s reports, in 1842, to the celebrated Oberlin fugitive slave rescue cases, exparte Bushnell, ex parte Langston, in 1859, reported in Ninth Ohio State Reports, when, as Governor ol Ohio, through the attorney general, C. P. ’Wolcott, he prosecuted a writ of habeas corpus to release prisoners, convicted of a violation of the fugitive slave law, from the Cleveland jail, and openly declared that he would sustain by force the decision of the Supreme Court of Ohio against that of the Supreme Court of the United States, even if it resulted In a collision. with the general Government—the full blown Calhoun doctrine of nullification.” The reader who will consult the article will find this stafement supported by conclusive documehtary proofs, While the fugitive cases were pending, Governor Chase made a speech in Cleveland, in which he used this language: “ I wul say, what 1 have frequently said before, that as long as the State of Ohio remains a sovereignty, and so long as I am chief Executive, the process of her courts shall be executed. The process of the United States courts must not be slighted or resisted, but so

long-as. I represent the sovereignty of our State, I will see that the process or our State courts shall not be interfered with, butshall be fully enforced. * * When I am called upon to act, I will act.” This was spoken to an excited meeting, at which inflammatory speeches were made by Giddings and others, advocating tbe tearing down of the prison walls and the forcible release of the prisoners. When Chief Justice Swan concurred with a majority of the court in pronouncing the federal law constitutional, Governor Chase exerted his influence to prevent his renomination, and succeeded in displacing him from the bench. “ To the copious array of facts presented by the Cincinnati Commercial we will add a few confirmatory specimens taken chiefly from Mr. Chase’s utterances in the United States Senate, where he consistently advocated the State Sovereignty view.

the execution of the Federal laws. The necessity of the bill was explained by its introducer to have ansin out of resistance, by State authority, to the execution of the fugitive slave law; marshals an dthelr assistants being in many cases subject to heavy damages by State laws. Senator Chase led the opposition to that bill. In the course of his speech, he said: ‘Sir, this is a bill for the overthrow of State rights. It is a bill to establish a great central, consolidated Federal government.’ Sir, there was once a senator from South Carolina on this floor too clear sighted not to perceive that the enactment of the fugitive slave law was utterly irreconcilable with the theory of State riglrfs, which he, in common with South Carolina’s greatest statesman, professed to believe In, and too noble and ingenious to deny the inconsistency.’ After a long State rights extract, Mr. Chase said: “ Sir, the Senator from South Carolina spoke in a spirit worthy of South Carolina. A slaveholder and a defender of slavery, he would neither conceal his real opinion, nor ask for any advantage for his section or his class at the expense of a violated Constitution. Would that a like spirit had controlled other Senators who have represented State rights constituents and profess State rights doctrines.” In 1850, in reply to Senator Butler. Mr. Chase said: “ I have certainly answered the Senator very distinctly and candidly. I said that I knew of no remedy in ease of the refusal of a State to perform its stipulations.” Here the doctrine that the Federal Government has no authority to coerce a State was explicitly avowed. In 1850, in connection with an abolition memorial from Vermont, Mr. Chase spoke of “ the memorials of Sovereign States,” and a<'uin and again, many times over, spoke of the Union as- “ this Confederacy ” —forms of express ion quite after the Calhoun pattern. “ In Mr. Vallandigham’s argument, as counsel, in one of the Ohio fugitive rescue cases, in 1857, we find him saying, in reply to Mr. Wolcott, Governor Chase’s agent: ‘And I tell Mr. Attorney General, and through him the Executive of the State.whose vain defiance he has this day borne to this presence, that it is not to he awed by threats,’ etc. In another part of Mr. V’s. reply to Governor Chase’s representative, we find him saying: ‘ I agree heartily with the State rights doctrines which the Attorney General with so much ability has advocated;’ showing that Governor Chase’s agent, whose argument he assisted in preparing, based his resistance to the fugitive slave law, and his threats of force, on the doctrine of State rights. “ Now, considering that Mr. Davis’ defense against the charge of treason will probably rest on the very principle so boldly maintained by Mr. Chase, the chief ^istice’s antecedents will greatly diminish the weight of any charge he may make to the jury against that principle. However clearly he may refute it, he will not be very ^kely to convince the jury that if one man who held and acted on it is properly promoted to the highest judicial honor, another man for the same thing deserves nothing short of an infamous death on the gallows. The jury can not render a verdict against the prisoner, without, at the same time, convicting the judge. Healing the Sick—The True Healing Art. Editors Herald: I have said in a former communication, that poisons do not act upon the human organism. Medical men take the contrary position, and declare they do not act on the living body. Medical men do not profess to know how medicines act, and do not pretend to explain the rationale of their effects. They confess that the subject of this mode of ojioiation is a profound mystery; yet they are always administering them on the theory that they do act in some way. The truth is, they do not act at all. The same error has been applied to disease. Thegencral apprehension is, that diseases “attack” us, “run a course," are “self-limited," have •• laws of their own," are things at war with thelife principle. Disease and the life principle are one and I fie same thing, a fact which I shall endeavor to make appear. What is a fever? I answer, simply a process of purification. It is an effort to rid the body of obstructing material - impurities. It is an unusual labor, and where the fevir has completed its task of purifying the organism. like an army after a long campaign, or a man after a hard day’s work, the system is weak and exhausted, and the vital powers need rest.guiet, and not stimulation, as -timulants, or •• tonics," would only cause a greater expenditure and waste of vital power. Stimulation and nfitrition are antagonistic notion-: wc must not mistake < x. iti-mcnl for strength. It is during sleep, when the external senses nr. in repose, that the vital powers build up and replenish the tissues; and nutrition goes on best when the abnormal disturbance which is called stimulation is le ist. Disease is nothing more nor less than disturbed vital action. Poisons occasion irritation, and disturb the vital action; hence poisons are the cause of disease, whether given in the shape of bitters made ol root- and herbs or alcohol, tea, coffee, tobacco or minerals. What is stimulation/ Not, as I have already stated, the action of poison on the living body, but the action of the liv ing body to expel a poison. This is why stimulation is always an exhausting and never a ftapporting process. This is why •‘ keeping a person up ” on stimulants is a sirre method of sinking him down. Stimulation, inflammation and fever are’all morbid conditions, and are all caused by poisons or impurities of some kind. 1’urc food, pure water anil pure air, do not stimulate in the least. Whatever the living system can not use, it must reject. Ami here is the distinction between food and poisons. Whatever the living system can not appropriate as food, it must expel as effete matter, as foreign matter, or ns poisonous matter. Here is the rule by which wc are to determine whether a given substance is useful or injurious, and by this rule we learn at once that, all poisonous matter taken as medicines or as beverages in tbe shape of tea, coffee or tobacco, or stimulating drinks, is abuse. Common sense has never yet been applied to the investigation of medical problems, as it has to all other subjects. I do not believe it is possible to found a successful practice of the healing art upon a false medical science. This fallacy which mistakes stimulation for strength, underlies all the false doctrines and erroneous practices of the medical profession. Now, if a fever is a process of purification, certainly it should not be “ suppressed,” “ subdued,” “counteracted,” nor killed, nor cured, in the ordinary sense of these terms. It should be aided, assisted. It is an action to regulate. A fever is not a thing to be destroyed, but a process to be directed. Wc are told tliat fevers “ attack ” us, “ go through ” us, they “ set in,” etc.; “ they come in—run out," etc. Where is the fever before it goes into tbe human body, and where does it go when it leaves the patient? The truth is, fever is a remedial effort of the system to east out impurities, and nature docs not require more impurities to assist, or rather to exhaust, the vitality in order to effect a cure. The magnetic system, as practiced by me, is an assistant in helping to restore proper action without retarding the efforts of nature. And this is one of the principal reasons why my success has been so remarkable in the cure of chronic diseases. The people are taught a false doctrine of vitality. Let the medical profession teach this genertion the true relations of living and dead matter, and the next generation will sing the song of a new redemption. Let them learn to prevent disease by avoiding the causes, rather than to attempt to cure it by administering the causes of other diseases. Teach them that stimulation is disease, and that every dose diminishes tbe inherent vitality ot the patient, and that the only means which can insure health and long life, and purity of blood and cleanliness of body, and then will lie laid the true foundation of health, reform, which is the basis of all reform. There is hope then for the invalid. Let him not despair until he has tried the newer and better way. Let him come to me and be healed without medicine, and at the same time learn how to keep well. For this is also a part of my mission, viz: to teach the sick not only how to get well; but how to keep well, so they will not need a physician. I shall remain at the Bates House till June 10 Those who are too poor to pay, will be treated free of charge, each morning, between the hours of eight and ten. A. j. Higgins, sl D.

TAR. H GGIXS’PRACTICK IS PECULIAR 10 HIM 1 W self. He givi s no meiiicice. but cures by a n and scientific method of practice discovered by blm:i Although there ar.i men who hare the same megnetic powers over diseases of ihe body »nd mind, (some call it a gift,) but few seem to po.-eese (he power ot seeing at a glance the cause of disease, and at the same t me tte power to remove It, to such an extent over nesriy all diseases. Itis life and vitalpy pissed from a vi-orous and healthy body to a weakly one. So powerful and natural is this influence, that mauy have been n stored

' ealth li

to health in an incredible short space of time, who have for miny years suffered from diseases wldch have been pronounccC incurable, and to whom medic ne has been

administered with no good effect.

There is nothing miraculous or supernatural about this prset ce. It Is based upon strict principles of natural tcience, and it is commended by many eminent physcisns of o her practice who have received treatment for themselves and famlleqatid also recommend it to

their patient^.

Da. HIGGINS does not profess tocure every case. He gives no medicine, but relieves all pain almost instantly. It takes but a few treatments by this practice to cure almost any curable chronic disease ; and so powerful is the effect that many c tses are cured iu a few operations. Broken Bones, D'sb c nions. Deafness, Curvature of the Spine, Paralysis and Cancerous Tumors are exceptions. Diseases that are the m st certain of being buied are: I Tea A' Eyes, ir<?a£ Spines, Loss of Voice, Stammering, St. Vitus Dance, Dyspepsia, Falling of the Womb, I lea A; Lungs, Cad Coughs, Weakness of Limbs, Disease^ of the Liver, Kidneys and Heart, DiabetisMelitis, Spermatorrhcva. Xerrous Debility, Rheumatism, Catarrh, and all Diseases of the Urinary Organs. Paralysis, which has been considered by other Magnetic Physicians as incurable, can be cured where circumstances are favorabl*, but requires longer lime. Consumption, in its incipient stages, also yields to this system. It is proper here to remark that many persons who have a cough have not the Consnmption of the Lungs, although they may have bad treatment for such a

di-ease.

General Dropsy also yields to this system, but also re-

quires longer time.

iger

Because seme persons are cared by a few treatments it does not folllow that all can be so quickly healed. The Doctor wi-hes it distinctly understood that it is not his efforts alone thaa affects cures. But it is by following

patiently and perseveringly his directions in every particular, that the great goal (health) is reiched. Nature does not make bodies in a few minutes, arid when there is any repairing to be done it must lie exp. ctr U that she must have time to accomplish thu work. However, this can be done while the patient is at heme as we'las when

with the physician. Mavnetism is not a subtle inflnei.ee that only remains with the patient so long as the ope tor is in his immediate vicinity. But it is a subsist
