The Chair ruled the motion out of order.
Mr. SmitU appealed from the decision of
the Chair.
The Committee reverted the decision?64 to
busNIo it, and 76 in opposition.
The bill wan accordingly laid aside.
A bill for the relief oi Charles Lee Jones was
considered, and laid aside, with a recommend
ation to the House that it do pass.
A bill for the relief of Adolpbus Meier & Co.,
of St. Louis, being under consideration,
Mr. Skelton arose, and said that it contem
plated refunding duties, in oonsequence of the
destruction of the property by lire. He thought
the Government should not beoome an insurer
of property. Were Congress to puss this bill,
untold millions would be claimed, upon the
same principle, by individuals and insuranoo
companies.
The bill was laid aside, informally.

IMPORTANT TO MILL OWNERS.
HAVING reoeived my Letters Patent for an im
proved method of Dressing Millstones, I am
now prepared to furnish Machines to Millers and
Mill Owners.
I will guaranty that any practical Miller can, at
the first trial, if ho will try, dress a pair of Burrs in
half the time that he can do it with the common
hand-pick now in use ; and that the work done by
the machine shall be bettor than can be done by nine
out of ten of tho beat handlers of the common pick.
The machifie makes a clean, cloar, thread-like mark,
and doos not brittle up nor break the face of the stone.
It can be controlled at the will of the operator, in
stantly to make the most delicate ifck or one with
the force of ton pounds, if required. Every practical
Miller knows that a stofae is only reauired to be dress
ed where the proof staff indicates. This can'be done
by the maohine, no matter how brittle or tender, or
how olose and bard the face or place ?n the stone
may be, the operator can face It dowu, or touch aa
lightly as he pleases. There are three very good rea
sons for trying them:
First. With fair use, the machine will laat twenty
years. Second. It is comp!eto within itself, and will
not take five minutes, nor cost five centa to try it
Third. I give with tho machine thirty tool*, or pick
blades, wnich will last any two pair of atonea, to be
dressed twice a week, for two years, and then any
good smith can replace them for twenty-five centa
apiece. ..' . . ,
I have used this mcchine in my mill for nearly
fourteen months, to drej* both the face and the fur
rows of two pair of four leet French Burrs, and there
haa been no hand-pick used on them in all that time.
I know that I make a good yield, and I thiuk the
reputation of my mill will warrant me in saying that
I turn oat a first-rate article of Flour
I have a medal awarded mo for the invontion of an
ingenious and usoful machine for Dressing Millstones,
by the Commissioners appointed at the exhibition of
the World * Fair, in the Crystal Palace, at New York
city, beiides flattering certificatea from all I have
sold the machine to.
Having recently obtained Letter* patent, I am now
prepared to fernish the machines, and to sell State,
county and abop right*.
p-y All order* must *tate the diameter of the mill
stones, and the kite of the collar of the *pindle. The
price of the machine, with thirty toola, 1* $1W

This i* to ccrtify that I have been omployed In the
0 Fallon Mills for the laat ten months, aa Miller, du
ring which time I have had a fair opportunity of test
ing Mr. J. G. Shands s Patent Mi.latone Dreaaer. I
know, by experience with the machine, that there is
nbt only oconomy in time and tools, but the *tone
may be kept in perfect face, and a fine, even, sharp,
grinding dress put on in less time and labor than
with hand-picks; besides, it take* very little praotice
to handle the maohine, and any one who haa expe
rienco onough in milling to know whftt is required to
aharpen the face of a stone for grinding, can very *oon
learn to do a good job with the machine.

A ?ft$AT BLESSING TO THE AFFLICTED.
07* The number and formidable character of dil
euses of the Liver havf lung challenged the attention
of medical men. MM of these diseases, classed un
der tho general term of Co^aiMpption, have been sup
posed incurable, and tbe unhappy patient allowed
to die, wiiRout medical soienoe to offer him a hope
of recovery. Happily this can no logger be the case.
A remedy has been found which willoure^oinplaints,
of whatever character, arising from derangement of
the Liver. Tho Pills discovered by Dr. McLane, of
Virginia, act directly on the Liver; and by correct
ing its operation, and purifying it from disease, outs
off and extirpates th > complaints which have their
origin in the diseases of this organ. Romedies hith
erto proposed for liver complaints havo failed to
operate upon the seat of the disoaso; but Dr. Mo
Lane's Pills make themselves felt upon tho action of
tho Liver, and, by cleansing the fountain, dry up the
impure streams of disoaso, which thence derive their
existence.

To those persons who may visit Washington, and
are in want of a boot that cannot bo excelled, either
in quality or workmanship, we would call their atten
tion to the card of Henry J annoy, to be found under
the head of " Washington." A handsome and neat
ly-made hoot is not at all times a source of pleasure
to tho wearer but often one of extreme torture; this
is caused by the bungling manner in which the boot
is fitted to the foot. Mr. .Tanney has devoted much
of his time in studying the construction of Ihe human
foot, in order to ascertain how a boot should be cut
and fitted, that will be perfoetiy easy to all parts of
the foot. In this he has succeeded, so that it matter*
not what mav bo the shape of, or tho number of corn*
on the foot, hi* boot is porfeotly easy, fhus he ha*
combined beauty with comfort.

NOTICES OF TIIE PRESS.
The author of this book is tho editor of the Albany
State Register, and among all our brother editors we
know of none of such rare fancy and humor in do
picting country lifo. I.-aac Walton would bavo boen
delighted to read such a hook, and Christopher North
would be happy in inhaling such good humored
sketches of country sports. Wo have rarely read
anything more instinct of life nnd fun than this book,
or which is more appropriate to tho season of sum
mer and rural life?N. Y. Express.
Reador, you havo a rich t:eat before you, in the
pages of this volume, -which comes before you with
interminable changes, magnificent groves, whose tall
trees hare withstood the storms of a thousand years;
luxuriant gardens, fertile meadows, quiet lakos and
running brooks, hills, valleys, and mountains?a
multitude of attractions to inspire new, enlarged,
fresh thoughts, in the mind that is wearied with the
dull routino of our city life and dusty streets.?Phil
adelphia Courier.
It is so attractive, that ho who opens it, will reluc
tantly relinquish it, till he has fallowed tho writer
over the hills, across the lakes, and among tho forest
streams.?Rochester American.
It is a charming book for company on a summer
tour, and will hold a prominent place among the lux
uries of literaturo.?Troy Budget.
All the lovers of the country and of country life, of
rural scenery and of nature in its wild grandeur, of
the sports of the forest and tho stream, should buy
this book and read it.? Troy Tint's.
A book that will be greeted by sportsmen, and ea
gorly read by the lovers of romantic adventure. Such
readers will envy the author's happiness when they
find him pulling up the simple, uneducated trout,
from those secluded lakes: tipping over the deer at
every shot; snutGng the fresh breezes of those old
primeval mouutains and hills; and listening to the
music of the wild, wild woods.?Auburn Journal.
This is a charming volume. One almost f. ols the
bracing freshness of the lakes and fort-sU as he turns
over its graphic and sprightly ptiges. They are ab
solutely so bowitchinir, that to read them is not to be
content without rusticating.? Pkiluilelphin News.
His desctiptions of the forest, tho stream, the lake,
tho meadow, the birds, and the blossoms, are spon
taneous gushes?warm feelings set to the simple mu
sic of Saxon words. The author has not only trav
elled among tho scenes he paints so well hut has tar
riod with them until he has found out all their se
crets.?Buff/do Expre*i.
It is a book to keep awake even ic summer after
noons nnd eveciogs, conveying one most glibly across
hills, lakes, and forest streams, and pointing out all
thut is worth seeing or feeling. There is much to
warm up by wit, and to thrill by daring, in the book;
and he who reads it, and don't want to hie straight
off in the country, may?read it through again, and
see how mistaken a man be is.?Boston B<?*.

THK CONFLICTTFTYFiT
BY DR. EDWARD B?ECHER.
This Remarkable Work has readied its Fifth
Edition, in the brief spate of Four Months!
A success unprecedented in Theological Pub
lications !
A'
N impression ban already been produced by this
L masterly treatise, the most profound, wide
roac^ing, and permanent.
It is perfectly manifest to all competent observers,
that we are upon the eve of a theological discussion,
the most com^eheusive, radical, u.nd portentous, the
world has over seen. To this diaoussion this book
leads tho way, with a momentum irrtsistiblo. There
is not a question in Theology which is not destined
| to come up for a now and thorough settlement in the
light of this final development.
All those who have Theological doubts and diffi
culties should oxarnine the solution this work affords.
Thoso who have no doubts, but who wish to study
the history of opinions in the past, atid to keep paco'
with the deveiopmicts of opinion in the ftoture will
grievously orr if thoy neglect to make themselves fa
miliar witfrthis hook. It contains the seeds of the
thinkings and debatings of the next hundred years.
The reception cf tais work by the Tho. logical
press of the country, has been significant. Equally
doclinitg to accept his oocclusion, th-y do it on op
jioiite and contradictory grounds. Olio half of the
Theological press endorto* ihe major premise ot the
argument, aud denies the minor. Trie other half en
dorses the minor, and denies the major. Ami as they
are probably both right in their positive element, and
wrong in their negative, the work has received a Vir
tual Endorsement of the most powerful kind.
As regards the ability of tho work, and ita claims
on the attention of all, the following extracts may
suffice :
FromTh* Princeton Repertory? Old School Orthodox.
It is characterized by great ability, by an earnest
spirit, by frankness, candor, and courtesy. It has a
special interest for ua. Wit hail it as an ally.

TO THE CONSUMERS OF DRY GOODS
Who Seek their Supplies in our Market.
(r^lP\0liLY We are D0W in onr NEW
V/ oTOnK. which waa erected exproesly for as. We
think it the most comfortable and best lighted store
room in the city; und with increased room, facilities,
and oxporicncu, deemed quite ample, we shall deai
largely in
FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC BEY ROODS,
of every style, all of the best qualities, and for which
wo Hh&il liavc ofin price only.
We shall sell chcaper than wo ever have done; and
in having ono price only (which, in our opinion, if
the only fair and oquitable way of doing business) we
shiul maintain our self-respect, which is above all
price or success. Moreover, we expect to retain all
the trade of those prompt customers wbo have made
their purchases of us for some years past, and doubt
less we shall havp a largo accession of now customers,
u/ whVro 0JU ta'r Vrif* only it asl,d.
We feci that our simple word is requisite only to
satisly our former customers that the on* price sys
tem i;, the correct one, and to their ad van tag*: and'
we do not hesitate to wsert our belief that all candid
and intelligent persons will, alter an impartial exam
ination of prices, fabric, and style*, give a one prico
etoro tno preference. Those who are not judges of
goods cannot lu.il to be impressed at once with tho
manifold and vast advantages to tho purchaser re
sulting from the adoption in good faith of the one
price Wit em; it necessarily insures low prices to the
purchasor. for it becomos absolutely necossary to meet
at the start all competition that can be offered in
prices.
Our scale of prices will be so low, and the profits so

GENIUS OP THE WK8T, CINCINNATI, OHIO

HOWARD DURHAM, j
The third volume of the genius or
THE WEST commences with the July number.
1854 Thia Periodical wan established for the pur'
pose of encouraging and introducing to the pnblio
everywhere,
ORIGINAL WESTERN LITERATURE.
" The West has no literature," was remarked by a
prominent speaker in a puMie assembly, not a long
time fine* The West iui* a literature?a literature
of her <'wn?fresh, bold, vigorous, mi beautiful not
refined into s'npidity. not degenerated in'o obscetii
tv?l.ui looinirg uj> like her own mountai a, fetliln
n.? her rich soil, attractive as ber blooming prairies.
It ha* been the ol.joct of the Genius to gather in the
choicost productions of thia literature, and to aend
them fotth again, to encourage, to pleaae. and to in
struct. It ia not surprising that the publie have re
garded this object with extraordinary favor?a favor
wbieh ia evidenced by the remarkable success of the
Oenias of tho West. It has elicited the attention
and admiration of cultivated minda in all parts ofthe
country. From Mouth Carolina, from New England,
from Oregon, from every quarter where it haa become
kr.own, there come eager calls for the Gonitis, ac
companied with words ol such enthusiastic commend
ation, as may well excite in the editors, aa well aa
contributors, foelinra of pride and pleaaure.
On tho hoeli of this aucceae, Mr. Wuhan, the pro
jector of this enterprise, ia enabled to annonnee. for
the forthcoming volnue,
NEW AND ATTRACTIVE FEATURES!
Foremost, he has bad the good fortnne to aaeociate
with him Prof Coat its Kinney, who has pnrchased
an interest in the Gcniui, and will hereafter devote
his whole attention to iU pages. Among the poeta
and prr.se writcra of the West, Mr. Kinnry ia con
spicuous in the fortmoat rank ; and the enlistment of
bis pen in tho editorial depart moot cannot fall to ex
cite a deeper and still wider interest in tho minds of
the reading public.
The typographical execution of the work has also
been improrod, and so nrrangod as to afford a much
greater amount of readifg matter, without any ad
vance in prico
New and valuable contributors have boen engaged,
whose contributions will enrich the pagoa of the new
volume.
The proprietors Uinjt now established in a print
ing office of their own, it will be their object to ex
tend the circulation of the Genius of the West every
where, and thoy earnestly solicit the aexiatance of all
who derive pleasure from literature, and especially
of those who desire to encourage the growth of lit
erature in the West, which shall command the reapoct
?f the world. r
The Genius of the West ia published monthly, roy
al octavo form, thirty-two pages, superior paper and
typography, and handsome cover. Each number is
splendidly illustrated
