Tho bondholders receive the interest promised them by the Government and no more, and contribute to its support to the full extent required by the laws and the Constitution of the country.

Washington Chronicle makes the

remarkable statement that letters have iheen received from tbe South, showing "X-rebala of that section, lueludng certain newspaper editors, ^cpect a renewal of tbe late civil war on the reassembling of Congress. The writers ar--gue thnt the paroles given by the rebel so!di?r= to General Grant prevent them from fighting against the North again, except ur.der the leadership of 9ome reiirniz'd power in the Government, and they expect that Provident Johnson will furnish that leadership when Congress attempt?! to' impeach him. The canards published in the Administration papers, apparently authorized by the President himself, especially through the columns of tho Boston Post and New Orleans Pi«ayune,jizarding the intention of the radiCa!i\iith rknd th. ir alleged inclination to forcibly depose Johnson from tho

White House, have ?o excited the people it that section that thoy aro actually preparing tbenieoiyes for a war.

THE Indian ultimatum to our Commissioners is "the withdrawal of the troops from the Powder river country and tbh abandonment of the Smoky Hill Pacific Railroad." They also demand "guns, ammunition and presents." This is the result of the tedious and useless attempts to arrange our Indian difficulties peace­-

ably.

It no wonder that the Indians insult us. We might well expect it after teaching them, through dishonest agents that we are as unreliable as they are themselves. Respect for us, they have none, and least all for our military prowess. They have tried their skill and strategic powers with our regular army, to find us their inferiors. Now they say,

,:Wo

"We do not want peace, because when we are at peace are poor; now we are rich." This is all too true; for how can they.be other than poor when and [sic] Indian appropriation of fifty thousand dollars will before it reaches our frontier, dwindle down to one red blanket and a string of beads? In war, owing to their more

IB

war, owing to their more

rapid tactics, they can make their own appropriations, and that too, from the Covornmont supplies to our army. They constantly do it, and scarcely a day passes in which we fail to chroniclo the loss of army wagons, the driving off of cattle and horses from some outpost, and the useless pursuit by our sluggish troops. Oar tactics do not fit the war, and our army brains, schooled in the grooves of a rou tine out ol which they appear worthless arc totally at a loss how to hold the Indians in hand. Wo annually bleed our Treasury many millions of dolfars for Indian war purposes on one hand and Indian presents on the other. In peace wo furnish them with a.x Iho munitions of war they may desire, and in war we wonder where they get their weapons. The old Spaniards were wiser than we in dealing with tho Indian tribes on this Continent, for they made it a criminal ofTencoto sell firearms to an Indian. An Indian war is, however, upon us. The blunders, right and left, which have made it necessary will not now mend affairs. We must to-day accept the fact, look it in the face, and prepare to fight it out. The question is. how can it best be brought to a conclusion Certainly not by our regular troops for the whole pas^ history of our frontier indicates a complete failure of the army whenever this du ty has been assigned to it There is but one method, and that is by volunteers. The Governor of every frontiar State and eve* ery Territory should have the authority to keep the Indians quiet in his district, and to raise a eufficiet volunteer force for the purpose- the bills to be paid by the general government. The troops thus raised should be placed in command of volunteer officers, who, selected from our ablost frontiersmen, understand Indian tactics, have personal wrongs to avenge and a local responsibility to urge them to action. Lot tbom not be afraid to take a scalp. The Indian appreciates force and nothing else. If this method be pursued we shall close our Indian war in less than six months, and at the minimum cost. If it bo carried on in the present style the country may prepare itself to be bled of its treasure for the next ten years, only to find the Indian question as unsettled then as it is to-day.

Tbe National Inttlligencer, one of the most unscrupulous and bitter Johnson papers in tbe whole country denounces the scheme, and we believe tho Indianapolis Herald is seeking to rid itself of the odium of having advocated it at all, while the Louisville Democrat squarely opposes the dishonesty of the greenback humbug. In a recent article it used the^e words "Tho supposition that forfeiting that honor by paying the debt in greenbacks, which is simply no pay at all, wili relieve the country, is a fatal error. The repudi. atipn would utterly destroy the value of the l$i»al tenders. It would be an act of bankruptcy. We would then have no money, no medium of exchange, and would be roduced to barter.

WE referred to the email collection of individuals at the Old Court House last Saturday evening, as a meeting of the "Rupudiatora." This, the Journal charges, was un "insulting squib." Brick Ponieroy, editor of the La OTOSM Dimmer at, and one of tbe most influential lead* era of the organization, stated recently in his paper, that the "Democratic party is pledged to repudiation," and that tbe issue ef greenbacks to pay off tbe public debt was only a way of sugar-coating the scheme. Like Pomeroy, tbe Journal is an ardent advocate of this poliey of disposing of the public indebtedness. Now, why should it charge us w'th perpetrating an 'insulting squib," when tbe leaders it foU lows, avow holdlv that they mean repudiation

IF a bondholder is exempt from all taxation for the support of the Government, and if to own bonds is tbe most profitable of all investments, why do the Journal editors not sell out and go into the bust* ness They are not prohibited from owning "gold bearing bonds."

Dr. Hale on Consumption Having fully, and I think clearly given the symptoms and tendency of Nasal Catarrh, Throat diseases and Bronchitis, I now come to speak of that mo6t common and extensively fatal disease, Tubercular Phthisis or Pulmonary Consumption And that the reader may be able to un derstand something of the workings of this disease I will first glance at its

ANATOMICAL CHABACTEK.

Consumption, as all are aware, means a consuming or wasting away, and was originally applied to many diseases af Aiding different organs cf the body, having no symptoms in common except emaciation. They were called con sumptions because of this emaciation. But the use of this term led to confusion among medical writers and made necessary to designate tbe kind of con sumption meant, by prefixing the name of the affected organ. Laennec, the author of Mediate Ascultation, and inventor of tbe stethoscope, in his extensive re* searches into the pathology of the lungs^ found that small granular bodies always oxist in the lungs in genuine consump tion. These bodies are called tubercles, and since this discovery the term consumption has been restricted to disease of the lungs and called tubercular eonsump tion. But do not suppose that I wish you to understand that this fell disease is wholly restricted to the lungs, for the de velopment and workings of tbe disease in this organ, is only a part, or fragment of a great constitutional malady. Tuber cles themselves, are composed of unorganised matter, deposited from the blood, of a yellowish color, opaque, friable, and about the firmness and consistency of cheese, and its formation is closely linked with the scrofulous diathesis. At first a tubercle is deposited in the state of fluid exudation from the capillaries in the fame manner as lymph in this condition it insinuates itself into the insterstices of tbe lung tissue, passes through the lining membrane of tbe air vessels, and their interior. It now co-agulates and constitutes a foreign, solid body, which can only be removed by being again broken down and rendered capable of being either absorbed or expectorated The softening or slow death of this tubercular deposit, constitutes true ulceration, a process that is liable to occur at any time, and *rhich is more or less extensive, according to the amount and extent of the morbid deposit. One very important fact is, that tubercles when they affect the lungs are not deposited at random or indifferently in all parts of this organ but it is ia the upper lobes in nearly all cases they first commence their destruction It is here where they are tbe largest and most numerous. It is here also that they first ripen and grow soft, and become ready for expulsion through the bronchia and trachea, consequently it is here we have the most fre quent, the most numerous and the largest excavations in the luuge. As I before alluded in my letter upou bronchitis, we have io many instances a different type of consumption to deal with in the west than that of the tubercular, and this I denominate a softening, or more properly a ca tarrh or the lungs. For an example we may take a case of consumption as it occurs in the New England States. How many of you have noticed a young lady

young gentleman, in the prime

of life, and apparently in the enjoyment of good health, eye bright, voice clear, complexion clear and fair, with what you may call a beautiful flush upon tbe cheek, &c. Suddenly they are attacked with a pain in the chest, or bleeding from the lungs, and finally a cough. The skin changes somewhat to a waxy appearance, but still retains its blush, the eye is a little brighter tban usual, but the destructive disease rapidly runs iu course aud the patient suddenly dies of tubercular consumption,(the upper organs of the air-passages usually lelt in a healthy condition. Now how dif« ferent are tbe symptoms of tbe type we have to deal with here. The disease comes on gradually and insiduously, first in tbe form of a catarrh. The nasal isage to speak plainly become rotten from disease, the throat becomes affected, and bronchitis is set up, the air passage* become clogged with mucus, the blood in passing through the lungs is not arterialized ulceration or softening of the lungs commences, the patient becomes billious, the liver tropid and inactive, the bowels constipated, the voice hoarse, the throat sore, tho he-id rotten and full of corruption, the eye dull and yellow and the patient gradually sinks and dies and needlessly, we say, because these catarrhs that bave gradually led to this accumulation of evils migbt be easily remedied if taken in time. But I shall have more to say in respect to the destructive features of this disease in giving you the symptoms of cons imptiou.

cause

ot comrnamox.

To enter into a full and complete in* vestigation of the causes of consumption would occupy more space here than I am able to give it. Suffice it to say that careful investigation and observation of those minds devoted entirely to this disease^ have established the fact that the immediate cause is disorder of the nottittas

functions, and mal-assimilation of blood, causing flnk, impoverishment of tbe blood. Second, loeal exudations into tbe lung, which present tbe character of tubucolar exudation, and third, owing to tbe successive Carnation and softening of these, and tbe ulceration which follows in tbe pulmonary tissues, the destructive results that distinguish the disease. Among tbe remote causes producing -this result we may mention first, as the most prominent hereditary predisposition, or the scrofulous diathesis and again, vitiated atmosphere, changeable temperature, certain unhealthy occupations, humidity, particular localities, absence of light, excessive sexual indulgence, female diseases and so on, predispose to consumption.

The human constitution is governed by two forces, tbe nervous and vegetative. The former disposes the particles composing the body to a state of motion, the latter inclines them to a ttate of rest. So constant is the aetion of these two forces, that they may be compared to a whirlpool into which the particles of matter ure poured under the influence of the vegetative powers, and out of which they are constantly whirled by tbe nervous force.

When tbe vegetative foree transcends the nervous, there is no waste, but particles of matter are constantly laid down faster than old ones are taken up, the body increases in weight, nutrition is more rapid than destruction the body grows. On the other band, when the nervous force is in tbe ascendant, that is, overmasters the vegetative, then it is that the body is attenuated, the blood thinned and serous, and the consumptive condition is established.

In tubercular consumption, the system is like a submerged field nothing can take root thejabsorbents are so quickened in their work that they dislodge matter not yet worn out, and cast out of tho system that whicb is designed for its renewal nutrition is at an end. Now the blood commences to secure that true tu Lerculous matter in the delicate air-cells and on the surface of the lining of the numerous air-passages.

Now, I wish to call your attention to tbe next chain of causes that produce tbe majority of pulmonary complaints in tbe west. It may be proper tQ stylo this bronchial consumption, and softening of the parenchyma of tho lungs. This result is induced by ueglected catarrhs, throat disease and bronchitis the catarrhal disease, vitiating the blood, destroying the digestive apparatus, prostrating the vital process, and completely deranging the normal functions of animal life. This disease is too often neglected until it is lost sight of in '.he disastrous consequences to which it gives rise. How many are there all around us The young, the most gifted and most beautiful of the human race, that are destined to fill a consumptive grave, from these as they call simple complaints, only "slight catarrh," or "throat difficulty," a little cough of no consequence,', but. however slight tbey may be, thoy steadily transform the bright ruddy features of health to tbe dull wan, listles-sness of premature age, And when hope is vain and life a mockery, comes the stereotyped advice of a "return of health in the spring," "a change of climate," "a visit to Minnesota, or the country." But alas the country referred to is that which lies beyond the confines of the festering grave, and the spring, the season that blooms eternal when life's fitful fever is over.

8YMVTOM8

OF CONSUMPTION.

About the first noticeable symptoms of consumption is a sense of

(,wearisome-

ness and languor occasionally, "slight flying pains about the shoulders and breast," a '-peculiar sentitiveness to cold" "shortness of breath upon moving quick, or exercising a little more than usual."— Tbe next most prominent feature is a "dry hacking cough," increased frequency of pulse," the "losing a little flesh," soreness of the chest, and a feeling of weight."— Finally, the cough increases in severity, the destruction of the lungs become more rapid, and expectoration increased in quantity, loss of appetite, nausea, diarrhesa and night sweats supervene profuse bleeding at times. Sometimes, swelling of the ankles, and puffness of the hands and face tells us that tbe disease is about to reach a fatal termination.

Tbe foregoing, understand, are the eneral symptoms of consumptions, they not occur In all cases. Some pass thror the various stages ot tbe disease without any pain to speak of, and in many, hem orrbage does not occur at all, and some retain what they call a good appetite to the last. But we will generally find many of the leading symptoms present.

TBEATMXNT OT COVRUMtTXOV.

The study of causes and symptoms of consumption should be Interesting to all and if they were better understood by the masses there wpuld be less of the disease, but however interesting the study migbt be, there is one point of still more import ance to the public involved in tbe ques tion is consumption curable and if not, why not Is it true there are many cases of consumption where in the third or last stage, medication with a view of cure by any method or remedies would be ut terly useless but to cure such would be indeed miraculous but that consumption genuine tuberculous disease of the lungs, can be cured in nine cases out of ten, if there is any vitality left, I knew and in catarrb, throat and bronchial dis eases there need not be a failure.

Now let me ask you what is done by the old practice in the attempt to cure this disease I will tell you what I meet with nearly every day in examining new cases, and inquiring into previous treat ment, and it is no unusual thing to find them taking a mixture of "squills," and a an a to a ynes" to diminish irritability and cause of sleep a mixture of "catechu, gallic acid," "tannin," or other astringents to check diarrhea "acetate of lead and opi um," to diminish bleeding "sulphuri acid drops," to relieve tbe sweating, and ]robably "ccd-liver oil" in addition.— With a mass of bottles and boxes at the bedside sufficient to start a small drug store, without its ever suggesting itself to the physician that tbe stomach so drench ed with nauseating things is anable to perform its functions.

And now when we add to this the couatw irritants" they use, such as "Se ton's blisters, ar pustulation by tartar emetic ointment," witth the stomach drenched internally, ana the Airface covered with sores, what wonder i* there that the patient dies

Now let us inquire, what to be done to cure consumption? Why, arrest the further formation of tubercular deposits, canse the absorption of tubercle already deposited, and the reducing of inflamatica and soreness, and tbe healing Qf the cavities formed by softened and broken down tuberculous matter that has been expectorated. have already shown that consumption is a general and also a local disease then should it not have both a general and a local treatment? Nothing is more plain and in accordance with common sense, tban this proposition. Yet for centuries the disease has been treated only by dosing the stomach with drugs. What is the consequence? Consumption has become the terror of mankind, sweeping off yearly in the United States one hundred and twenty thousand victims I A disease styled by tbe rtgulam, incurable.— But do not infer from the above that I do not give medicines by the stomach when they are indicated, for 1 claim that it re* quires both the local and general treat ment to effect a cure oi this disease.

Why do we apply a wish or aa ointment to disease upon the surfkee of the body? Because of Its direct curative effect, by the .application of the remedy to tiie distese

Now, reader, let me ask you, would these washes and ointment, applied by way of the stomach, have this effeet? Would they ear* the tfMMf Common

sense at once tells you they would do no good. Now we want to stop the further formation of tuberculous matter, also tbe inflammation and ulceration, and heal tbe cavities. But you may say that we can not take medicines into tbe lungs I Very true, the lungs were made to receive air, and not for the introduction of solid or fluid substances but these solid and fluid substances may be reduced to vapor and inhaled into the lungs: and tbey will manifest at once all tbe virtue they possess improvement iu the patient will bo at once perceived. If physicians could apply washes to the mucous membrane of tbe air-passages, they would do so at once but because they oan not do this they bave treated tbe disease by general remedies through tbe stomach only deserting the principle of direct local medication, and tbe consequonce has been, as we all know, death I

No one will dispute that inhaling into tbe lungs certain poisonous gases directly affects them injuriously* ana in many in» stances canses death. Many persons havlost their lives by breathing pure air.

If certain substances will have a bad effect upon tbe lungs, others, we find by experience, have a good effect we take advantage of this fact and by vaporizing proper medicinal substances,Jcure the disease.

Within the last few years I have cured many cases of well developed and un« doubted consumption with only two remedies, one administered by way of the stomach, the other by inhalation, directly into tbe lungs. But you will no doubt often hear the remark madj by certain physicians, "that these vaunLed cures of consumption, were only so called in name, but were in fact some other curable disorder. To answer this argument effectually, I have often resortoa to the expedi ent of sending well developed cases of phthesi3, to the genoral practitioner, and his opinion corroborating my own, have then treated the case by my neio method successfully, and afterwards referred them to the same physicians for a re-examina tion, who have pronounced them well Now this establishes one of two facts, and physicians may cbooso whichever horn of the dilemma they please. Either their diagnosis was good for nothing, or I cured tuberculosis or pulmonary consumption

Mercutio said of his wound, "It was not as deep as a well or as wide As a gate, but it would do." Piastation Bittebb will not raise the dead, But they cure the sick, exalt the depressed, And render life a thing to be enjoyed.

We believe there are millions of living witnesses to this fact. Dyspepsia Li a horrid disease, but Plantation Bitters will cure it. It is a most invigorating tonic, for weakness and mental despondency.— Those who aro -'out of sorts" should try Plantation Bitters.
