Dr. 'Hnrdman trcnts Consnmption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Paryngitis and all diseases of the throat and lungs by Medical Inhalation. The great point in tho treatment of all human maladies, is to get at tho disease in a diroet manner. All medicines are estimated by their action upon tho organ requiring relief. This Is tho imunrtnnt fact umm which Inha lation is baaed. If tho etomach ia dlsordorcd, voi i take medicine dirootly into tho stomaoh. If tholungs are diseased, breathe or inhale medicated vapor Ui-ractlv into the lunirs. Medicines aro tho antidotes to disease, nnd should bo applied to tho very seat of aiscascs. innaiaiion is ino uppucanuu oi iu 1miu oiplo to the troatmont of tho lungs, for it gives ns direct access to thoso Intricnto air cells and tubes which lie out of roach of ovory other means of ad-intnistorinir medicines. Tho reason that Consump' tion and other diseases of tho lunirs bavo heretofore resisted all troatmont, has been bocauso thoy havo novor been approached in a direct mannor by medicine. They wore intended to act upon the lungs, nmlvet were appucu lo ino sioinucn i i neir in was inten.lnd to bo lucnl. and vet thcv were so ad' ministorcd that they could only act constitutionally expending inuir priiiuiiui uuu iuimcui,u j. nn tha nniiffunilins stomach, whilst tho ulccra within the lungs wore unmolested I Inhalation brings the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without tho disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is so simple that it can bo employed by the youngost infant or feeblest invalid. It does not de-ronge the stomach, or interfere in tho smallestdcgrco with the strongth, comfortorbiisincssof the patient. In relation to tho following diseases either when complicated with Lung nUcctions,or oxisung mono. I also invitooonsultation usually find them promptly curablo.

Mr. Graham, of Bonn, mentioned this fact of tho only hero tad man- of-jnilitnry gonitis, that the Indian crisis lias repealed : Ho had to tell them that Gen'. Ilavclock, who is now so distinguished in India, although a Baptist, was a member of his (Mr. Graham's) missionary church at Bonn, ncd his wife and daughter wcro members of it for seven years. Ho could also, narrato an nnccdoto regarding that great and good man, which ha had heard from tho lips of Lady Havclock. When Gen. Ilavclock, as colonel of his regiment, was traveling through India, ho always took with him a Bethel tent, in which ho preached tho gospel; and when Sunday camo in India ho usually hoisted tho Bethel flag, and invited all men to como and hear the gospel in fact ho even baptized some, ne was reported for this at head quarters, for anting in nnon-mil-tary and disorderly manner; and ihocommander-in-chief, General Lord Gough, entertained tho charge, but with tho true spirit of a gen erous military man, ho caused tho truo stato of Colonel Havclock's regiment to bo examined.. Ho caused tho reports of tho moral stato of tho various regiments to bo road for somo timo back, nnd ho found that Colonel Havo-lock's stood at tho head. of Iho list; thoro! was loss drunkenness, loss flogging, less imprisonment in it than any other. ' When that was done, tho commander-in-chief said; "Go and tell Colonel Ilavclock, with my compliments, to baptizo tho wholo rmyv'.; , . 07" Wo find tho following paragraph in tho Central American correspondence of the Sew York Herald : A correspondent of tho ruoblo believes that General Walker is a privato agent of. thp American government; that ho intends to organize his expedition at Bocas del Toro, (be. twecn Aspinwall and Grcytown,) and after taking possession of tho Isthmus of Panama, will conquer Costa Rica and Nicaragua, and " all tho other places which the model republic wishes to usuro." 0" Tho Wisconsin election wag for somo days in doUbl.

S. Journal of Monday. Tho Canal Contract. Our notico of the decision of Judgo Bates upon tho Canal Contracts, on Saturday, was necessarily brief. The points decided by the Judgo aro as follows i 1st. That tho Board of Pnblic Works being required by law to let tho contract to tho lowest responsible bidder," must necessarily consider and pass upon the responsibility of tho biddors. To select tho lowest responsiblo bidder required tho exerciso of judgment nnd discretion, whether the word responsible refers to pecuniary ability, or to any peculiar fitnoss to perform the required service Sid. When tho Board exercised its judg-mant, and made its selection, tho Stato was bound by it, and the decision cannot bo questioned becauso it is erroneous. It is conclusive, in tho absence of fraud or other misconduct, on the part of tbo Board. 3d. That tho giving of a bond by tho con-tractor in double the contract price for ono yo r only, mstcaa 01 aouoio ino aggregate price lqr tlio nvo years ino contract was 10 run, does not invalidate .the contract. Tho instructions given by tho State in regard .to tho amount of tho bond aro ambiguous, and reasonably susceptible of two constructions. The airenis of the State adopted ono of them, . and-if they erred, tho-. Slato is bound by their act. - The Cholera in Kuroie. . The advices bv the Arabia show that this fatal disease is still prevailing to a grcatV-tcnt in the North of. Kuropo. In Stockholm, and other cities of Sweden, the deaths this far, wcro computed as high as live thousand ; but tbo latest accounts show a' progressive dcclino. At Hamburg it is likowise on the , decrease No cases aro reported in England, but tho various sanatory committees and boards of health in the cities and large towns are going to wotk as if its advent next spring , was dead certainty.

In ouf last publication wo gave the substance of a rumor which had just reached us, of tho massacre of a largo party of cmigrnn's on their way to this State by Great Salt Lake City. Wo wcro unwilling at first to credit the statement, and hoped that rumor had exaggerated tho facts ; but tho report has been Confirmed, and the loss of life is even greater than at first rcporrcd. This is the foulest massacre which has ever been perpetrated on this route, and ono which calls loudly for the active interposition of tho government. Over one hundred persons havo fallen by tho hands of tho merciless destroyer, and wo hope that immediate steps will bo taken by the authorities to inflict a terrible retribution on tlu.se concerned. Thero is no longer reason to doubt the facts wo havo them from different parties, and all agrco in placing the num ber of slain at over one hundred souls men, women and children. The details, as fur as yet known, are thoso: A train of emigrants from Missouri and Arkansas, for this Stato, wero waylaid and cruelly butchered on tho route, at a place called Santa Clara Canon, near tho rim of tho Great Basin, about thrco hundred miles from Salt Lake City. Tho scono of tho massacre is dif-fcrenlly designated as tho Santa Clara Canon, tho Mountain Springs, and the Mountain Meadows. But nil agree in locating it at near tho rim of the Great Basin, and abont fifty miles from Cednr City, tho most southern of tho Mormon settlement. Of a party of about ono hundred and thirty persons, only fifteen infant children wcro saved. Tho account was given by tho Indians themselves to tho Mormons at Cedar City, to which place they brought tho children, who woro purchased from them by tho people of that city. Whether the causes assigned aro sufficient to account for the result, or whether a diirerent can to is at tho bottom of tho transaction, we will leavo tho reader to form his own conclusion.! We can scarcely believo that a party traveling along a highway would act in the munner described ; that is, to poison tho carcass of an ox, und also tho water, thus endangering tho lives of thoso who were coming after them. Yet this is tho story told by all who havo spoken of tho massacre. It is stated tho emigrants had nn ox which died, and they placed poison in tho body, nnd also poisoned the water standing in poohi, for tho pur-posa of killing tho Indians; that several of tho tribe had died from this causo, and that the wholo forco mustered, pursued the train, and coming up with them at the abovo named place, which favored ihoir purpose, attacked and murdered the wholo party, except a few infont children. The Indians stato that they mado but ono charge on the parly, in which they cut off a greater portion of tho men, nnd then guarded the outlets of tho canon, and shot tho men and women down as they como out for water; that ono man was making his escape with a few children, and thev followed him, killed him, and took tho children. 1 fiftoon in number, tho eldest under fivo yoars of ago.

DR. nARDMAN, Physician for tho Diseases of the Lungs, (fonuorly l'hynlcinn of tho Cincinnati Marine Hospital and Invalid's Uotrcat.)- May be consulted by the afflicted as follows: DECEMBER APPOINTMENTS.

Dr. 'Hnrdman trcnts Consnmption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Paryngitis and all diseases of the throat and lungs by Medical Inhalation. The great point in tho treatment of all human maladies, is to get at tho disease in a diroet manner. All medicines are estimated by their action upon tho organ requiring relief. This Is tho imunrtnnt fact umm which Inha lation is baaed. If tho etomach ia dlsordorcd, voi i take medicine dirootly into tho stomaoh. If tholungs are diseased, breathe or inhale medicated vapor Ui-ractlv into the lunirs. Medicines aro tho antidotes to disease, nnd should bo applied to tho very seat of aiscascs. innaiaiion is ino uppucanuu oi iu 1miu oiplo to the troatmont of tho lungs, for it gives ns direct access to thoso Intricnto air cells and tubes which lie out of roach of ovory other means of ad-intnistorinir medicines. Tho reason that Consump' tion and other diseases of tho lunirs bavo heretofore resisted all troatmont, has been bocauso thoy havo novor been approached in a direct mannor by medicine.

Mr. Graham, of Bonn, mentioned this fact of tho only hero tad man- of-jnilitnry gonitis, that the Indian crisis lias repealed : Ho had to tell them that Gen'. Ilavclock, who is now so distinguished in India, although a Baptist, was a member of his (Mr. Graham's) missionary church at Bonn, ncd his wife and daughter wcro members of it for seven years. Ho could also, narrato an nnccdoto regarding that great and good man, which ha had heard from tho lips of Lady Havclock. When Gen. Ilavclock, as colonel of his regiment, was traveling through India, ho always took with him a Bethel tent, in which ho preached tho gospel; and when Sunday camo in India ho usually hoisted tho Bethel flag, and invited all men to como and hear the gospel in fact ho even baptized some, ne was reported for this at head quarters, for anting in nnon-mil-tary and disorderly manner; and ihocommander-in-chief, General Lord Gough, entertained tho charge, but with tho true spirit of a gen erous military man, ho caused tho truo stato of Colonel Havclock's regiment to bo examined.. Ho caused tho reports of tho moral stato of tho various regiments to bo road for somo timo back, nnd ho found that Colonel Havo-lock's stood at tho head. of Iho list; thoro! was loss drunkenness, loss flogging, less imprisonment in it than any other.

S. Journal of Monday. Tho Canal Contract. Our notico of the decision of Judgo Bates upon tho Canal Contracts, on Saturday, was necessarily brief. The points decided by the Judgo aro as follows i 1st. That tho Board of Pnblic Works being required by law to let tho contract to tho lowest responsible bidder," must necessarily consider and pass upon the responsibility of tho biddors. To select tho lowest responsiblo bidder required tho exerciso of judgment nnd discretion, whether the word responsible refers to pecuniary ability, or to any peculiar fitnoss to perform the required service Sid. When tho Board exercised its judg-mant, and made its selection, tho Stato was bound by it, and the decision cannot bo questioned becauso it is erroneous. It is conclusive, in tho absence of fraud or other misconduct, on the part of tbo Board. 3d. That tho giving of a bond by tho con-tractor in double the contract price for ono yo r only, mstcaa 01 aouoio ino aggregate price lqr tlio nvo years ino contract was 10 run, does not invalidate .the contract. Tho instructions given by tho State in regard .to tho amount of tho bond aro ambiguous, and reasonably susceptible of two constructions. The airenis of the State adopted ono of them, . and-if they erred, tho-. Slato is bound by their act. - The Cholera in Kuroie. .

Frcm tho Loa Angoloa Star, Out. 0. In ouf last publication wo gave the substance of a rumor which had just reached us, of tho massacre of a largo party of cmigrnn's on their way to this State by Great Salt Lake City. Wo wcro unwilling at first to credit the statement, and hoped that rumor had exaggerated tho facts ; but tho report has been Confirmed, and the loss of life is even greater than at first rcporrcd. This is the foulest massacre which has ever been perpetrated on this route, and ono which calls loudly for the active interposition of tho government. Over one hundred persons havo fallen by tho hands of tho merciless destroyer, and wo hope that immediate steps will bo taken by the authorities to inflict a terrible retribution on tlu.se concerned. Thero is no longer reason to doubt the facts wo havo them from different parties, and all agrco in placing the num ber of slain at over one hundred souls men, women and children. The details, as fur as yet known, are thoso: A train of emigrants from Missouri and Arkansas, for this Stato, wero waylaid and cruelly butchered on tho route, at a place called Santa Clara Canon, near tho rim of tho Great Basin, about thrco hundred miles from Salt Lake City. Tho scono of tho massacre is dif-fcrenlly designated as tho Santa Clara Canon, tho Mountain Springs, and the Mountain Meadows. But nil agree in locating it at near tho rim of the Great Basin, and abont fifty miles from Cednr City, tho most southern of tho Mormon settlement. Of a party of about ono hundred and thirty persons, only fifteen infant children wcro saved. Tho account was given by tho Indians themselves to tho Mormons at Cedar City, to which place they brought tho children, who woro purchased from them by tho people of that city. Whether the causes assigned aro sufficient to account for the result, or whether a diirerent can to is at tho bottom of tho transaction, we will leavo tho reader to form his own conclusion.! We can scarcely believo that a party traveling along a highway would act in the munner described ; that is, to poison tho carcass of an ox, und also tho water, thus endangering tho lives of thoso who were coming after them. Yet this is tho story told by all who havo spoken of tho massacre. It is stated tho emigrants had nn ox which died, and they placed poison in tho body, nnd also poisoned the water standing in poohi, for tho pur-posa of killing tho Indians; that several of tho tribe had died from this causo, and that the wholo forco mustered, pursued the train, and coming up with them at the abovo named place, which favored ihoir purpose, attacked and murdered the wholo party, except a few infont children. The Indians stato that they mado but ono charge on the parly, in which they cut off a greater portion of tho men, nnd then guarded the outlets of tho canon, and shot tho men and women down as they como out for water; that ono man was making his escape with a few children, and thev followed him, killed him, and took tho children. 1 fiftoon in number, tho eldest under fivo yoars of ago.
