In fact, the entire State ig interested in it, In my communication to the HERALD whica was pubtished yesterday the matter was alluded to so as to show the great importance of the subject. By the Senate bill, which is now beiore the House, an immense influence can be obtained for the party controlling the water avennes ‘through the State, and it was but naturai, therefore, to expect that the republicans would make a hard fight against tne bill. The expecta- aon was fully realized; for as soon as the House Went into Committee of the Whole on the subject the salt sage of Onondaga opened . THE SLUICE GATES OF ORATORY, @nd a food of eloquence poured in upon the canals and the corrupt manner in which they had been Managed, and afew amendments were oifered by Messrs.

BASSFORD, ‘Cooper Instigute. R. J. H. SCHENCK, OF PHILADELPHIA, HAVING abet just beppe ed from a proeey, visit to Florida, offers @ following advice to consumptives :— As it has been my duty to advise with invalids, givingstbem fmatructions in regard to the care they should take of them- ‘and where their winters should be spent, T used to regular professional visits to the different leading cities, because it gave me more complete control of ents, When I bad opportunities of examining them, found that their lungs was not so far gone as to be the ert o healing, I is once advised them to boa Se stay in their rooms, kee; 01 on and to exercise ri much as they could within the mits of the room, in order that the free circulation of blood might ve kept up; and to take Schenck’s Pulmon! Syrup, Seaweed; Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By pant en, following these directions hundreds have been saved who, ander almost any other bircumstances, would have dled & ‘the ‘ordin method of Ie hope tty! ts to advieg them to go out into the fresh air. Mule gonerally pleases om, fresh alr affords them temporary relief. But ues, acd the almost inevitable result ts that they are continually taking little colds, whieh are scarcely pereep= tible at first, but which, 10 the end, prevent the bealing of the juny Asli have resolved to discontinue my professional visits to other cities, I paid a visit to Florida for the purpose of ascer- taining whether that region would not prove beneficial to in- valids, the conclusions at which I have arrived are climate of Florida is admirably suited to con- It ip of an equable, temperature, so that nvaliag can exercise in the open air without subjecting themselves to jo danger of taking cold, The liver of a manof sedentary bits generally becomes torpid or inactive, hence exercise is absolutely essential to him. If he is of consumptive habits this exercise cannot be safely taken in our changeable forthern climate, and hence the advantage of to ida. Tsaw bundreds of consumptives there, many of them in = rapidiy improving condition. They will gat wall if they per- severe in the course they are pursuing. ‘They had the advan- tage of open exercise in connection with the proper medicak remedies. The majority of them aro taking my medicines, and ate carrying out fully the idea Ihave bech endeavoring fo impross on the public mind, and that ia, the free use of the andrake Pills. ‘The stomach of a consnmptive patient, the liver and the bowels are almost invariably in» dull or inactive condition. ‘The stomach does not erave food, and if It did could not di- oat it. It has not the power toconvert it into good bealthy Siood, without which & cure of consumption is. linpossible. To make good blood is the aifice of food. Ifthe stomach and liver are in order then digestion pro ceeds naturally, and of course witl advantages to the pa- tient, He grows in flesh, and consequently in strength, and, asa natnral sequence, the lungs heal rapidly. Now all this is readily accomplished by the judicious use of Schenck’s Pulmonie Syrup, Mandrake Pills and Seaweed Tonic. They should be taken tozether for the following excellont rea- sons:—The Pulmonic Syrup arsiste in ripening the impure matter in the Innge, and good blood takes its place; the weed Tonic prevents the food from souring on the stomach, Mimolates ihe coats of the atomach and aatinte digestion; the Mandrake Pilis act on. the liver, exciting {t to vigorous ace tion, causing a healty secretion of bile, and carrying off the morbid indigestible matter. In my opinion Florida is the place for consumptives, there are some portions of it to be preferred to for the following reasons :—Jacksonville 16 face ta many respects, but It has the disadvantages of ing located directly on the St, Jobn’s river, where hea fogs and dewn are froquent, and where, at times, fever an gue and chilis prevall, which are certainiy anything else than beneficial to consumptive. St, Augustine has few ad- which cannot be found at bome here in the North. jocated near the ocean; one day the at- overcoat becomes neces. ave a great man Nappearing to have good appetites and gaining flesh rengib. Many of them would, to the casual observer, ar to have no lung disease, but appearances are decep- Ray cending of stairs would bring 18 80 violent as to astonish those not familiar fn thelr casea, But for these couzhs they would, from their healthy appearance, be taken for per fectly sound persons. Texarmined the lungs of © great number, and was amazed to find bow seriously many of them had been diseased; but wore healing nicely. But Palatka is not the most desirable place 19 Florida for conaumptives, at least such is my gpinlon. There J too much fow), wet land in theyrlain own pressions are ‘nterprise and Melo ville are the best locations for invallds, The climate. ia n variable, and appears to be somewhat warmer than other locations vialted by me. At Enterprise there ts « large and very fine boarding house and hotel known as the Brock House; its only fault being {its looation on the banks of Lake Monros, which causes heavy daws as times, Decidedly the best place in Florida for consumptives js at Major Marks' hotel, two miles from Melonville, and about the same distance from the lake, right ainong the pines, The house is large and the table splendid, which is saying a g deal for Florida. Ibave come to the conclusion to recom- mend thia spot to my patients, after having visited and care- fully examined nearly all the places to which invalids are usnally recommended. Those who desire to know more > Major Marks’ hotel can obtain t ry information ‘Orange county, ire to bo understood as waying that these are places 1n Florida for invalids. They are By all odds the bes: focallta Tvl for this reason confidently recommend them. J. H, SCHENCK, M, D.
