CONSUMPTION, AND ACL JISEASES OF THE LUNGS A lid THOATT are positively curable by in ** halation, which conveys the remedies to the cavities in the lungs through the air pas sages, and coming in direct contact with the disease, neutralizes the tubercular matter, allay s the cough, causes a free and easy ex pccto'ation, heals the lungs, pur Ties the blood, imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys tem, giving that lone and energy so indis pensable lor the restoration of health. To be able to stele confidently that Consumption is curable by inhalation, is to me a source of unalloyed pleasure. It is a* much under the control of medical treatment as any ather formidable disease; ninety out of every hun dred cases can be cured in the first s'.ages, and fifty per cent, in the second; but in the third stage it is impossible to save more than five per cent., for the luugs are so cut up by the disease as to bid defiance to medical skill. Even, however, in the last stages, in halation affords extraordinary reliel to the suffering attending this fearful scourge, which annually destroys ninety five thousand per sons in the United States alone; and a correct calculation shows that out of the present pop ulation of the earth, eighty millions are des tined to fill the consumptive's grave. Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so falal as Consumption. In all ages il has been the great enemy of life, for il spares neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the brave, the beautiful, the graceful, and the gifted.— By the help of that Supreme Being, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift, I am enabled to ofler to the afiicled ■ perma nent and speedy cure in Consumption. The first causa ol tubercles is troro impure | blood, and the immediate effect, produced by their deposition in the lungs, is to prevent the free admissiw of air into the air cells, which causes a weakened vitality through the entire system. Then surely it is more rational to expect greater good from ir.edi. cities entering the cavities of the lungs than 1 train those administered through the stom ach; the patient will always find the lungs free and the breathing easy after inhaling remedies. Thus, inhalation is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts constitutionally, and Willi more, power and certainly than rem edies administered by the stomach. To prove the potveilul and direct influence ol this mode of administration, chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a few min utes, paralyzing the anliie nervous system, so that a limb may be arnputa'etl without the slightest pain; inhaling the ordinary burning gas will destroy lile in a few hours. The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when fainting or apparently dead.— The odor of many ol the medicines is per ceptible in the skin a few minutes after being inhaled, and may be immediately detected in the blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional cflects ol inhalation, is the fact that sickness is always produced by breath ing foul air. Is not this positive evidence that proper remedies, carelnlly prepared and judiciously administered through the lungs, should produce the most happy results? Du ring eightoen years' practice, many thous ands. suffering from diseases of the lungs and throat, have been under my care, and 1 have affected many remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had been pronounced in the last stages, which fully satisfies me thai consumption is no longer a lalal disease.— My treatment of consumption is original, and founded on long experience and a thorough investigation. My perfect acquaintance with the nature of tubercles, &c., enables me to distinguish readily the various forms of (lis ease'lhat simulate consumption, and apply i the proper remedies rarely' being mislalten j even in a single case. This familiarity in ! connection with certain pathological and n,;. I croscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve the lungs from the effects of contracted chests; to enlarge the chest, purify the blood, nil part to it renewed vitality, giving gnergy and tone to the pntire system. Medicines with full directions sent to any part ot the United States and Canadas by patients communicating their symptoms by letter. But the cure would be more ceitain if the patient should pay me a visit, which would give me an opporiumty to examine the lungs and enable me to prescribe with greater certainty, and then the cure could be effected without my seeing the patient again.

ITYAS established a greater celebrity -than ** has ever been obtained by any othet Starch. • This has been the result of its marked su periority in quality, and its invariable uni formity. The public may be assured of the continu ance of the high standard now established. The production is over Twenty Tons daily, and the demand has extended throughout the whole ol the United States, and to foreign countries. Working thus on a very large scale, and under a rigid system, they are able to secure a perfect end uniformity in the quality tnrough out the year. This is the great Desideratum in Starch-making, and is realized now lor the first lime. The very best starch lhabcan be made,and no other, is always wattled by consumers, and while this will be supplied to them by - the grocers, as soon as their customers have learned which is the best, and ask for it otherwise they would be likely to gel that article on which the largest profit can be made. Mr. Kingsford has "been engaged in the manufacture of starch continuously for the last 27 years, and during the whole of the period, the starch made under his supervis ion has been, beyond any question, the best in the market. For the first 17 years, he had the charge of the works of Wm. Colgate & Co., at which period he invented the process of the manufacture of corn starch. W Ask for Kivgsford's Starch, as the name Oswego has recently been taken by another fac tory. T. KINGSFORD & SON'S OSWEGO COIiN STARCH, (For Puddings, fyc ,) Has obtained an equal celebrity with their Starch for the Laundry. This article is per fectly pure, and is, in everv respect, equal to the best Bermuda Arrow-Root, besides hav ing additional qualities which render it inval uable for the dessert. Potato Starch has been extensively packed and sold as Corn Starch, and haa given false impressions to many, as to the real merila ol our Com Starch. From its great delicacy and purity, it is coming also into extensive use as a diet for infants and invalids. E. N. KELLOGG & CO., Agents. 196 Fulton Street, N. Y.

Of all disease; the great. fuel cause Springs from CIFI'IR KOT, wßlf ™|fßl! ™ is guaranteed in all stages of SECRET DISEASES, SELF-ABUSE, NERVOUS De bility, Siriciures, Gleets, Gravel, Diabetes, Disease' of the Kidneys and Bladder, Mer curial Rheumatism, Scrofula, Bones and Ankles, Diseases of Tluoat, Nose and Eyes, Ulcer's upon the body or limbs, Cancers, Dropsy, Kdileptic Fits, St. Vila's Dance, and all ili-ease* aris ing from a .derangement of the Or- Jm Such as nervous tremhlinir, less loss of power, general weakness, dimness of vision with peculiar eprjs apnearing before the eyas, loss of sight, wakefulness dyspepsia, Liver disease, eruptions upon the face, puin in the hack and head, female irresolarities and all improper discharges from both sexes. It matters not from what cause the disease origi nated, however long standing or olisiijate the case, recovery is ceriain.and in a shorter time than a permanent cure can he effected by any other treatment,even after the disease has liaf fled the skill of eminent physicians and resist ed all the means of cure. The medicines are pleaeant without odor, causing r.o sickness and free from mercury or balsam. During 20 years of practice, I have rescued from the jaws of death many thousands, who, in the last stages of the above mentioned diseases had bean given up to die by their physicians, which warrants me in promising to the afflict ed, who may place themselves under my care, a perfect and most speedy cure. Secret dis eases are the greatest enemies to health, as they are the fust cause of Uonsumption, Scrof ula ami many other diseases, and should he a terror to the human family. As a permanent cure ia scarcely ever elfected, a majority of the cases tailing into the hands of incompe tent persons, who not only fail to cure the diseases hut ruin the constitution, filling the system with mercury, which, with the disease, hastens the sutTerer into a rapid consumption. But should the disease and the treatment not cause death specdilv and the victim mar ries, the disease i- entailed upon children, who are born with feeble constitutions, and the current of life corrupted by a virus which be trays itself in Scrofula, 'Tetter, Ulcers, Erup tions and other affections of the skin, Eyes, 'Throat and Lungs, entailing them to an early grave. Self-abuse is another formidable enemy to health, for nothing else in the dread catalogue of human diseases causes so destructive a drain upon tho system, drawing its thousands of victims through a few years of suffering down to an untimely grave. It destroys the Ner. VOUB system, rapidly wastes away the energies of life, causes mental derangement, prevents the proper development of the system, dis qualifies for marriage, society, business, and all earthly happiness, and leavea the sutTerer wrecked in body and mind, predisposed to consumption and a tiain of evils more to be dreaded than death itself. With the fullest confidence I assure the unfortunate viotitns ol self.abuse that a permanent and speedy cure can he effected, and with the abandonment of ruinous practices my patients cau he restored to robust, vigorous health. 'The afflicted are cautioned against the use of Patent Medicines, for there are so many inge nious snares in thecolumns of the public prints to catch und rob the unwary suflferers that millions have their constitutions ruined by tho vj|e compounds of quack doctors, or the equally poisonous nostiums y niied as' Patent Medicines.' 1 have carefully analyzed many of lhe so called Patent Medicines and find that nearly all ot them contain Uorrosive Suhli. mate, which is one of tho strongest prepara tions of meicury and a deadly poison, which instead or curing the disease disables the sys tem for life. 'I hree-fourths of the patent nostrums now in use are put up by unprincipled and ignor ant persons, who do not understand even the alpnabet of the Materia Aledica, and are equal ly us dcstiluto of any knowledge of the human system, having one object only in view, and that to make money regardless of cunsequence. irregularities and all diseases of males and females treated on principles established by 20 years of practice, and sanctioned by thousands of the most remarkable cures. Medicines with lull directions sent to any part of the United States or Canadas, by patients communicating their symptoms by letter. Business correspon dence strictly confidential. Address J.

Report of the Committee appointed to superintend the burning of the Iron Safes at Reading, Feb. 27th, 1857. READING, March 4th. The undersigned, members ef the Commit tee, do respectfully report, that we saw Ihe two Safes originally agreed cpon by Farrels & Herring and Evans & Watson, placed side by side in a furnace, viz: The Sale in use by tlitf Paymaster of the Philadelphia and Read ing Railroad Company, in his office at Read ing, manufactured by Farrels & Herring, and the Safe in use by H. A. Lantz, in his store, manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put in books and papers precisely alike. The fire was started at 84 o'clock, A. M., and kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords dry oak and half chestnut top wood were entirely consumed, the whole under the superintendence of the subscribers, mem bers ol the Committee. The Safes were then cooled off with water, after which they were opened, agd the books and papers' taken out by the Committee Bnd sent to H. A. Laruz's store for public examination, after they were first examined and marked by the Commit tee. The books and papers taken from the Safe manufactured by Evans & Watson were but slightly affected by the intense heal, while those taken from the Sale manufac tured bv Farrels & Herring were, in our juilg ment, damaged fully fifteen per cent, more than those taken from Evans & Watson's Safe.
