The militiiry appropriation bill w a s exhausted, and the— Q u a rter M aster G eneral had informed linn that he wits now supplying tho arm y hi Texas upon his ow n private credit. The motion prevailed, and the House then went into Committee o f the Wli le, and resumed the consideration of the bill for supplying deficiencies in the appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1346. The bill had before passed the House and was ent back by the Senate with some amendments. Among the amendments w as oue of $7300 for the secret service fund. The Senate made tlie amount $30 00.

The bill to provide for the support of the Post Office Department was taken up. M r. Davis, ot Ky., com p lained thnt the con- tructiou placed upon the law by tbe Postmaster G e n e ral, by w h icb salaries w e re paid Postm as ters, was a most flagitious violation of tbe laws of tlie land. A. great am o u n t of m o n e y had b e e n paid out in this way, in direct violation of the law s o f Congress. Mr. H u n ter defended the Postmaster General and the A ttorney G e n eral from the im p n tat'nn of assumption of pow er not warranted by law. They had reduced an incoherent law into some thing clear and tangible, for which they deserved the thanks rather than the censure of the country. Mr. Davis rejoined, and contended tliat the com pensation of deputy postmasters w as fixed b y law , and they ought not to receive more than the law allow ed; y et they did receive more by the con struction of executive officers. The violation of la w w a s palpable. The sum ol $4,000 was appropriated for the M agnetic T e le g raph, a n d then the bill w a s p assed.

Scrofulous diseases are hereditary, ana the salt rheum, and similar affections, are handed down from parents to children, through many successive gener ations. These afft ctions are not only exceedingly trouble some aud annoying in themselves, but have hitherto been incurable. Some medicines and inodes of treatment, it is true, have been found tp alleviate, and seemingly suppress them, but, in nine cases ont of ten, they re-appear after a partial cure, and rage withmore virulence than ever. We were, therefore, prepared to subject the pretensions of Sands’ Sarsaparilla to a severe scrutiny. \YVe have care* fully and critically examined tbe claims of the proprie tors, and are now ready to endorse their statements. The efficiency of the Sarsaparilla, prepared by Messrs. Sands, of New York, is proved by satisfactory testimonials from the most respectable authorities. It comes recommended by tbe highest authority, and cases are recorded, in which it has effected the radical cure of patients who have suf fered for years without alleviation of their misery. The medicine is prepared by an elaborate chemical process, by which the curative properties of the Sarsaparilla are ex- tracted and fixed, and these are then strengthened and combined in an admixture, with other efficient remedies. For further particulars, and conclusive evidence of its superior value and efficacy, see pamphlets, which may be obtained of agents gratis. Prepared and sola, wholesale and retail, by A. B.

S aturday , May 9.—There is very little doing in Flour to-day, and the receipts are not large, owing to tlie late break in the canal. The sales amount to 1100® 1200 bbls. all for the Eastward, at $1,66}, which is all that Genesee Flour will command at present. There is nothing doing in Southern Flour. Sales of Wheatto the extent of 10,000 bushels have been made, at $1,10 for prime Genesee. For common red the re is no demand. Y'ellow Com is worth 6G®67 cents, nnd white G7®68c per 5611)3. No sales of Rye or Oats of any consequence.. CONSUMPTION.—There is, perhaps, no disease with which Olir country is niiected, which sweeps off annually so many victims, as that fell destroyer of the human race— Consumption. Day after day, year afier yenr, the insati ate monster hurries to the portal3 of the cold and silent tomb fresh added victims to its conquest. No walk oflife is sacred from it3 blighting influence. No age is exempt from its death-dealing shafts. The old. tbe middie-aaed and the young, all alike, nre food for this common enemy of mankind. The white-haired patriarch, whose life of temperance has rendered his system impervious to the at tacks of other ills, and whose good deeds prepared him for Ihe enjoyment of life’s calm evcninq, tinds consumption fastening its langs upon his vitals, and tearing him from a world, ever bright to minds which look complacently on days well spent. Is there no help for the afflicted ? No preventive of the dancers which beset ns in onr cbangable Mid tickle clime 1 We'think there may lie. And if the allegations of those who arc at least entitled to veracity, may be believed, there is a preventive and a remedy. YVistar’s Balsam of VVild Cherry is offered to a suffer, ing world as such. It needs not the *’ adventitious” aid of a long string of fictitious certificates to give It notoriety.— Its true value and intrinsic excellence are sufficient to en title it to the confidence of the public, and “ Waft on to lame,” the name of its inventor, as a benefactor of his species. None genuine, unless signed 1. BUTT:?, on the wrapper. For sale by T. M. HUNT and RICHARD STEELE. N E W A R I T H M E T I C . —J U S T P U B L I S H E D .

Editor of Day's School Algebra, &c., price 12j cents. The design of this work is to furnish a series of mental exercises in Arithmetic, adapted to the wants and capaci ties of beginners It commences with simple examples which relate to familiar objects, and the transition from easy to more difticult questions is so gradual, that thc young pupil can not be disheartened. Teachers who have examined and introduced it. say - it is just the thing for beginners.’’ Thc publishers respectfully invite the at tention of Superintendents and teachers to the following communication from E. G. Storke, Esq., County Superin tendent. Messrs. J. C. Derby & Co.,—I am murii pleased with “Thompson’s Fir=t Lessons” in arithmetic. X am con- \ inccd, that it is more happily adapted to the public school room, than any other mental Arithmetic now extant. In those which 1 have u-ed I have generally met with this difficulty—they were either too simple or too abstruse;— being adapted to the nursery, or else beyond the reach of tho. e for whom they were intended. Although Colburn’s work is faultless in every other respect, it will still be ad mitted, I think, that its progress is much too rapid for chil dren form five to nine years of age. For those as well as for others more advanced, I hazard nothingin sayinir that pra-tical teachers will find the work of Prof. Thompson peculiarly fitted; and that it will be spredily introduced and generally used, is the confident expectation, and oir.- c r.: wL-h ot Yours, respectfully and truly.

The work is not designed to be a book of puzzles, but to present the elements ot P r a c tical A r ithm e tic in a lu c id and syst matic manner. It is the opinion of teachers who have examined and used it. that in nearly every article some- thing new is gained in the mode of presenting the subject, and that perspicuity and precision arc remarkable through, out the xcork.

Even 60,000 quar- I ters of Indian corn is a week’s consumption for I Ireland, should the want become general. In the Unions the paupers have been fed with I w hat is called “ stirabout,” or hasty pudding— but in the Limerick Union they refused to eat it at first, but afterwards greedily devoured it. In Cork the Indian Meal is supplied by the Relief | committee at one penny per pound, and it is bought up with the greatest avidity. It has lately been discovered in Florida that an alligator is as valuable in his way as a sperm whale; their oil is said to be better for lamps than even whale oil, and a good sized animal will yield from a barrel to a barrel and a half.
