Order in relation to the attendance of the Legislature upon the public ceremonies at Portland, on the arrival of the remains of the late George Peabody, came from the Senate, that branch rejecting the amendment intro duced by Mr. Whidden, the question before i the House being on receding from its vote by 1 which the amendment was adopted. Mr. IIinks moved the indefinite postpone- inent of the whole matter, and called for the yeas and nays. Mr. Bradford opposed indefinite postpone- i ment. The House seconded the call for the yeas j and nays, and the Clerk proceeded to call the roll. Yeas—Messrs. Boyd, . Nays—Messrs. Ames, Raker, Barton, Bearce of Lewiston, Bearce of Turner.

Mr. Whiudkx hoped the House would not recede and concur with the Senate in the re jectment of the amendment, but in order that a better understanding between the two branches might be arrived at, and something more satisfactory perhaps to the people of the State at large, he hoped the House would in sist upon its former vote and eall for a com mittee of conference. Mr. ISakkek without a desire to take any part whatever in the discussion of this ques tion, read for the information of the House, u telegram received ten minutes before, stating that the fleet bearing the remains of the late Mr. Peabody had been spoken off l.nng Is land, and wgs hourly expected to be signalled in Portland to-day. On motion of Mr. Whidden, the House voted to insist and appoint a committee of conference; atulTMeasrs. Whidden, Barker, and Farwell were joined to said committee on the part of the House. Subsequently the committee through its chairman, Mr. Whidden, reported that the Senate recede and concur with the House in the passage of the order as amended. The report was accepted. The petition of the Executives of the Maine General Hospital was taken from the table on motion of Mr. Twitchei.e, amt referred to a joint select committee, consisting on the part of the House, of Messrs. Barker, Baker, Heed, Whidden, Sturgis, Patten, and Main. On motion of Mr. Daueino, Ordered, That the Committee on Pay Boll be instructed to compute the mileage of mem bers of the Legislature by the nearest stage or railway route to their place of residence. J'tissed to be engrossed—An act to author ize John A. Buck to extend his wharf into tide waters in the thwn of Bucksport; an act to repeal chap. Ulfl of the private and special laws of 1 tttifl, entitled an act to protect smelts in the Kennebec and Androscoggin rivers. An act additional to chap. 276 of the laws ot lS(i3. conferring certain powers on the city of Portland, on its passage to be enacted, was tabled on motion of Mr. Buai>kori>. I‘asset! to be enacted—An act additional to an act to incorporate the Waterville Mutual Fire Insurance Company; an act to author ize the extension of the railroad terminating at Farmington, known as the Androscoggin Railroad; an act to incorporate the Stetson Manufacturing Company. Mr. Smith, from the Committee on Elec tions, on remonstrance of llenry K. Bradbun against the right of John W. Lane to a seat in the House, reported the following resolve Resolved, That John W. Lane is entitled to represent the district composed of Hollis and Waterboro’, in the House, and that the re monstrant against his right have leave to withdraw. Mr. Srov nit said :—-Mr. Speaker: That my motives may be rightly understood, and to discharge a duty I owe to myself, 1 will brief ly state my reasons why 1 could not sign the j majority report of your committee. I have taken an oath to support the Constitution of this State, and I shall endeavor to act in ae- i cordance with that oath, w hether it be upon the floor of this House or in the committee rooms, believing that 1 am bound by the Con stitution to render such verdicts upon matters brought before me us shall honor its require ments. 1 conceive, sir, that that clause of the Constitution which makes this House a judge of its own elections, does not necessarily give it powers to declare that a person is entitled to a seat here, which the Constitution de dares is not eligible to that seat. My reasons for dissenting from the majority of the committee, are. that in my judgment Mr. Lane is not eligible to a seat in this House, not having resided in the district three months preceding the election. He went from Hollis to Massachusetts in 1840 or 41. 1 Moved to Portland in 1841* residing there till I8iil or 02. At this time he bought the old homstcad in TIollis, his sister and brother-in law living there a part of the time, while le afier leaving Portland in H02, residing in varioua places, at one time keeping house ini New York After he broke up in Portland. he says be sent to the homestead some “old f duds," such a- lie could not sell, lb did not gO himself, his w ife did not go. he nor Ins w ife have never kept house there, and lie has n den then movi d a reconsideration of the vote giving the order a passage. Mr. Baker argued against reconsideration on the ground that it had always been the practice to make up the pay of members in such cases, and he thought it right. A dis pensation of Providence kept Mr. Bunker' away from the House; it was not his own fault. Suppose any member of this House had been taken sick the first day of the ses sion, and had remained siek down to the present time and with no prospect of recovery, and should resign. Would the gentleman from Calais say we ought not to pay him, al though lie had rendered no service to the State? He was simply able to come to the House and look in, and then the misfortune fell upon him. He could see no distinction in principle in a man's being taken siek one hour before the legislature meets and one hour after. It had not only been tne custom to pay members taken siek utter their arrival here, but to pay extra expenses. He advo cated the cause of Mr. Bunker because he thought it was right. Mr. Whimjex did not understand this case to apply to the class of cases referred to by the gentleman from Augusta. If a member elect has been in attendance, and in the ser vice of the State, thch it has been the custom of the Legislature up to the time when he re signs his seat, to allow him his per diem, pay and travel. But this was a case where the man had never been in the service of the State, or made an attempt in that direction. It would make a new precedent, and if twenty members elect of the House were to never come here, is it a good rule to establish for this House that they shall receive three dol lars per day, and travel up to the time of this resignation as late in the session ns now Mr. Baker replied to Mr. Whiddeu. Mr. Chase of Winn quoted from the Con stitution and argued that it would not be con stitutional to vote a [member elect pay, who had never been qualified to enter upon the discharge of his ofiicial duties. The House voted to reconsider. Mr. 11 inks then moved to amend the order by striking out "three dollars,” and inserting "two dollars,” and strike ott' what relates to mileage. Mr. Huskey opposed the amendment. He was for the indefinite postponement of the or der. The amendment w as rejected. Mr. Fahwkm. w as in doubt as to how he I should vote on the question. If it I ad been the custom to pay members in cases of this i kind as asserted by bis colleague he did not want to make a victim of Mr. Bunker. He moved to refer the order to the Committee on Pay Roll. Mr. Bbauforu hoped the motion wuuld i not prevail. He thought the House able to settle the question then. lie was aware how unpopular it was for one to oppose sympathy j or sympathetic feeling. He was also aware that it was cheap to be sympathetic with other people’s money. Mr. Whitney Imped the motion would not prevail. He thought the House ready for the question. He was also opposed to voting away the people’s money without just com pensation. Mr. S-rtcKNEY thought it common sense t^at a man should be paid for work that he AMI RE FERRED.

Jailtt JUiurfift A Fit NEK’S 8KATIM. PARTY. Pim SCENES ON ICE. In accordance with previous aonoanee nient the fat men’s skating party came off at the rink on Saturday night la.-t. The munber of weighty men present was quite large, and in addition to these there was a large number of -katril- and spectators in fact the rink was emai ded with those wishing to see “weight and muscle" on skates. The ice was cleared at eight o'clock, and as a preliminary steji a I-air bank platform scale was brought upon the ice for the purpose of weighing the party. The clerk, Colonel J. M. Snyder, appoint ed to keep tally, in order that none weigh ing under two hundred pounds should ap pear oa ice, was present at his post/and the businessof weighing commenced. The following named gentlemen appeared and the clerk announced the respective weights as follows, Major A. W. Edwards, of the Carliville Democrat leading the party with 387 1-2 pounds: Major Edwards, 387 1-2; J. II. Shuck, 304 B. F. Haines. 300; J. W. Chencry. 299: Mr. Notts. 287; J. K. Dubois. 280; Win. Grims ley, 220; M. Hickoz. 217: J. Nafcw. 210: ,T. H. Currier, 208; Mr. Lee. 205; V. J. Ludlani. 204; H. Gibson, 204; J. W. Conkling, 203; A. Starne, 202; J. T. AVarne, 201; A. J. Dun ning, 200. There might have been others, lmt if so we did not hear their names announced. As the clerk announced the weight of the respective parties a cheer went up from the crowd of spectators. Major Edwards, although one of the most graceful and best looking men in the crowd, did not appear upon skates, for the reason, we understand, that his weight was about two and a half pounds more than the “regula tions’' admitted—and then the managers of the rink declined taking the responsi bility of the ice, &i\, much to the regret of those present. At the word the fortu nate ones came to time and got off in fine style, and the skating commenced in ear nest, and it was in truth earnest work in many respects. The scene upon the ice was "amusing and interesting, and wor thy the pencil of Hogarth in his best days. The exhibition consisted of plain and “figured"’ skating, some of the exercises j not being laid down in the American Skat ing Club book, although a good many of the skaters were laid down in various po sitions, “but” not always according to “rule." The rules were laid aside anil every skater cut the “spread eagle” and i practised the “grape vine" and “long rool" i after a fashion peculiarly his own. Some of the skaters placed their portraits upon the ice after various designs, and had the ice been soft the imprAsions would have been lasting. The party may he consid ered a success, and the affair was hugely enjoyed by the skaters and spectators. It may be proper to remark in this con nection that the services of the surgeons were not required.—From the Springfield (lU.) Journal. AMERICAN FOREIGN PATENTS. B.

Read the Evidence. “Facta arc stubborn things,” and it is to facts alone that it is desired to direct the attention of the readers of this article. Man/ years of severe and thorough practical trial have demonstrated beyond the peradventure of a doubt the fact tlwt the medicines prepared by me, and known as SCHKNCK’9 MANDRAKE PILLS, SCIIKNCK’S SKA WEED IONIC, and SCHENCK’S PULMONIC SYRUP, have proved extraordinarily successful in the cure of dis eases of the pulmonary organs, or what is usually termed Coxscmptiox. I ain fully aware that there are many peisous whose prejudices rule them so completely that proofs strong as Holy Writ” would fail to convince them of the efficacy of my remedies, and that there are others who, under no cir cumstances, could be prevailed upon to admit their merits, simply because such an admission would prove detrimental to their particular persona! interests. Fortunately for the welfare of mankind, these doubting people form a comparitively small portion of the comiuu ity at large. They are to be found here and there, but, compared with the great mass of the world’s imputation, their numbers are s*> small that I dismiss them, and address myself to those who are willing to listen to the dictates of reason, and who are disjxwed to admit the strong logic of well established facts. We are told almost daily that Consumption, the scourge of the American people, is incurable*, that a mau whose lungs are diseased must be given over to die that he must abundon hope and that the arrangement of his temporal as well as spiritual affairs should claim hi* earliest atten tion. If there were not facts as undeniable as that the sun will shine in a clear heaven at midday to controvert these random and not unfrequeutly harmful assertions, 1 should feel unwilling to take up the gage of battle against them but, fortified with results- facts—which neither theory nor mere assertion can overturn, I propose to prove that CON SUMPTION CAN 1IE CURED, aud that the medicines I prepare—THE MANDRAKE PILL9, SEAW EED TONIC, aud PULMONIC SYRUP—will, if used in strict accordance with the directions, in a majority of cases effect that which the faculty pronounces Impossible—they will cure Con sumption. An ounce of solid fact is worth a pound of theory. Let me, therefore, preseut the fact* connected with my own individual experience. Many years ago, I was a confirmed consumptive, and like thousands of other untortunaUs, was giveu up to die. Eminent physicians pronounced my case a hojieless one, and tukl me that if I had any prepara tious to make for the final solemn event, that I had better make them speedily. 1 believed this just as confidently as did the i>ersons who thus affectionately informed me that my days were numbered, aud that recovery was impossible. Still, the desire to live lingered in my bosom. I was young, and clung to life with the same tenacity that young men, aud old men too, ordinarily do. 1 did not feel willing to abandon hope as long as a single vestige of it remained. I had full faith in the sad information conveyed to me by my physicians, but still there was a lingering belief that some thing could be done, though 1 kuew not in what direction to seek for the much-desired relief. It was at this gloomy and eventful period of my history that I first learned of the roots and herb* frum which my remedies for this dreaded disease are now prepared. I procured and used them, and, to the utter amaseinent of all —physicians, friends and neighbors—began to improve. My entire system commenced to undergo a complete renov- ation. Kxiiectoratlon, which formerly had been difficult j and painful, now became comparatively easy. 1 threw off daily large quantities of offensive yellow matter. At the same time my long-lost appetite returned. I ate freely of such food as was palatable to me, and which was at the same time nutritious and wholesome. Expectoration be- came less copious and less offensive exhausting night sweats ceased the racking and harraasing cough abated the fever broke i the pain departed flesh planted itself on my sadly wasted frame, and with flesh came strength and full health. From a mere skeleton I became a stout, strong, robust man, and I have maintained both strength and flesh to this day. I weigh two hundred and thirty five pounds I am bleat with an appetite vouchsafed to but lew men, while my digestive organs are amply equal to all the requirements of a healthful condition of my ays Now, bs it remembered, all these wonderful change* were wrought by the use of the medicines I prepare—MAN DRAKE PILLS, SEAWEED TONIC and PULMONIC SYRU P. A cure seemingly so miraculous naturally created astonishment in the minds of those who knew me. I was literally besieged on all sides. I had visitors daily who be sought me to give them the remedies which had wrought the wonderful restoration and bad wrested me from the eery jaws of death. Letters were received by scores impor tuning me to impart the secret and inform the writers where the specifics for consumption could be obtained. Others, who were too weak too travel, not satisfied with writing, sent for and consulted me in regard to their cases. To all these applications I responded as I was able. I had hilly regained my health, and gratitude for the happy result prompted me to turn my attention to the science of medicine, with the hope of thereby being able to be of service to my suffering fellow-creatures. I devoted myself closely to my studies, and more especially to that branch of them relating to the terrible disease from which I had suffered so long and so much. I investigated it In all its fearful phases, in order to assure myself that my case was not an exceptional one. The closer my investigations the more satisfactory were my conclusions. I felt con vinced that tens of thousands of my fellow-creatures were dying annually from consumption whose cases were not as desperate and apparently hopeless as mine had been, and j I argued from this that remedies which had proven so effective with me would prove equally so with others. I prepared my medicines in a pleasant and attractive form, and announced them to the world. The results are well known. Thousands ef suffering men, women and children, i who were on the way to the grave, have deen cured, anti are to-dav living evidences .of the tact that CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED and I think I may say, without arro gating to myself any more than is Justly my due, that I have had as mach experience in the treatment of consump tion as any other person in the country, and that my sue- i cess has been wonderfully great. Let the reader remember that these are not mere fancied statements. They are positive living facts, of which I am the living evidence. There is an old adage which says. “What has been done may be done.” I have been completely cured of consump tion by the remedies I uow offer to the public. Thousands of others have testified to simila i happy results from their use, and thousands of others still rn.ght be bene fitted as 1 have been could they but be prevailed upon to try the vir tue of The Mandrake Pill*y Seaweed Tonic and Pulmonic Syrup. All that is necessary to convince the most skeptical of their merits is a fair trial. Full directions accompany each of the medicines, so that it is not absolutely necessary that patients should see me personally, unless they desire to have their lungs examined. For this purpose I am personally at my Principal Orvics, No. 16 North Sixth street, corner of Commerce, Kvkbt Saturday.

Scs*sc*’8 Skaweku Toxic for the cure of Dyspep sia and all the Debilitated Conditions of the Stomach. Dr. Schkxci’s Maxdrakb Pills for Diseases of the Liver, or to act as a gentle Purgative. All of these three medicines are often required in curing Consumption, though the Pulmonic Syrup alone has cured many desperate cases. The Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills assist in regulating the Stomach and Liver, and help the Pulmonic Syrup to digest and search through the blood vessels, by which means a cure is soon effected. These medicines are conscientiously offered to the public as the only safe, certain and reliable remedies for Pul monary Consumption, and for all those morbid conditions of the body which lead to that fetal disease. Liver Com plaint and Dyspepsia are often forerunners of Consump tion, and when they manifest themselves they require the most prompt attention. The Pulmonic Syrup is a medicine which has had a long probation before the public Its value has been proved by the thousands of cures it has made through a period of more than thirty-five years, in all of which time its reputation has constantly increased, and the most ob. at inale skepticism can no longer doubt that it is a remedy which may be used with confidence In all cases which admit of a cure. If the patient will persevcringly follow ths directions which accompany each bottle, he will certainly be cured, If his lungs are not too much wasted to make a cure possi ble. Kven In cases supposed to be incurable, when friends and physicians have despaired, the use of this medicine lias saved the life of the patient, and restored him to per fect health. I)r. He he nek himself was cured in precisely such cir cumstances, and many others have been equally fortunate by judiciously Leaking a timely use of Dr. Bchenck’s remedies. Dr. He he nek does not say that all cases of Pulmonary Consumption are within the reach of medicine, but he emphatically asserts, that often when patients have the most alarming symptoms, such as a violent cough, creeping chills, night sweats, and general debility, even to such a degree they are obliged to lie in bed, and when they are given up by their physician, they may still be cured. No medical treatment can create new lungs, but when the lungs are very badly diseased, and to some extent de stroyed, a cure may be effected by Dr. Schenck’s med Also, in Scrofulous diseases these medicines are equally efficient. I>r. Hchenck has photographs of a number of persons who have been nearly covered with running sores, and now all healed up. This shows Its purifying properties, which must be done to heal cavities in the lungs. In the treatment of Consumption, it Is of the utmost imjiortance to give vigor and a health tone to the system. Hence it is necessary to streogthenthe appetite of the patient and improve the digestion. Proper nourishment is required, together with such mean as will make the food easily digestible. The articles most suitable for the diet of consumptive patients arc designated in Dr. Schenck’s Almanacs, which are distributed gratuitously. In general, the most highly nutritious articles are to be preferred; but the digestive orgaus must be strengthened in order to make either food or medicine serviceable. This requirement is met by the Sea Weed Tonic, and for this purpose it was designed. W'hen the digestive powers are put in good order, the food has its proper effect, the system of the patient is in vigorated, and the lungs begin to exercise their functions in a normal and healthy manner. Then the healing powers of the Pulmonic Syrup will complete the cure. Pulmonary Consumption is almost always complicated with Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint. Bcbeuck’s Man drake Pills are intended to remove obstructions from the liver and restore its healthy action. They have all the efficacy which is ascribed to calomel or “blue mass,” and are warranted not to contain a particle of any mineral poison. These pills pure the most obstinate costiveness, sick headache, piles, Wlious affections, and all otherdiaeases which arise from a torpid or obstructed co-dition of the liver. One box of these pills will prove the efficacy of the In Consumption, the Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills are invaluable auxiliary medicines. They relieve the sufferings of the patient and assist the Pulmonic Syrup in effecting a cure. They have been found useful In ad vanced stages of Consumption, where the lunge were al most entirely destroyed, and all symptoms, according to the judgment of physicians, indicated speedy death. The lives of patients who were actually in a dying condition have been preserved for months by the use of Bchenck’s three great remedies.
