Panacea for the cure Of Lntsmperance.
NNHIS celebrated Panacea, which has been
Il proved to bo an easy aud complete, cure
for that most odious and destructive Of all vi
ces, Intemperancc, can be procured on appli-
cation at this efiicc. There is nothing unplea-
SAINT connected with its administration, and in
no instance where it has been administered,
has it failed to perform radical reform Of the
habits; and invariably restores to health the
unhappy sulfcrcr. Those who are disposed to
make trial Of its salutary effects, can do so,
with the utmost secrecy and delicacy. Those
who are scnsiby alive to the evils which in
temperance is sure to entail on its vo;aries,
will do well to make trial of the Panac cea, /,
with as little delay as possible.

crocosm will not be the successful. candidate;
and il does appear to US, that she people of
r. Island will not pursue q correct policy. il
they bestow their favours on those. who are in
open rebellion to their wishes. But il tho
thing is to be decided by the peculiar merits of
individuals, and political predictions are to
be thrown entirely aside, then Mr.. Danforth
might as well have it as any other gentleman
There is one strong argument that can With
justice be urged. in favour Of the comforting O.:
State Offices, on those alone, who are friendly
to the Administration, and it is this:--Although
1t is pretty we'll known abroad, that Rhode
Island is firm Administration State, if we give
our public Offices to men, who are known to be
personally. and politically hostile to the Cabi-
net, wo in effect give an impression to the citi-
zens Of another State. that We are retrograding,
and that the Opposition is gaining ground among
US, when nothing is further from the fact; and
thus We may impair the good feelings enter
tained for the Administration by the citizens of
other communities And beyond every other
consideration, il should be remembered BY the
friends Of the Administration. that il they eie-
vate to office, one of their opposers. they not
only act against their own interest, but give TO
a foe, that influence which should never be en-
trusted to his management, and which no will
use. to their infinite injury and discontinue.
The Opposition party Of this State, small as
it is, has from the momont Of the organization
of the Administration, been secretly at work, /,
to carry its ends into execution, and IL it has
not succeeded, the failure cannot be attributed
10 want Of industry and zeal. on tho part of
those who compose IL; and il is well known.
that no effort has been wanting on their part,
to paralyze the government. On a lato occa-
sion, to which we have before alluded, did not
the Oppositionists strain every nerve to elevate
to the Senate Of the United States. the partic-
ular friend Of Mr. Danforth, Mr.. Elisha r. Pot
ter, man who was known to be opposed to
! the administration, at the expense Of well
tried servant, Mr. Robbins; and have they no,
from that day to this, felt mortified ard cha
grined, because Of their defeat; and have they
not been secretly at work. to make the most a
their numbers, and to elevate to powerful sito.
ations, those, who, if elevated. would use their
influence to induce the people to oppose the
administration! The fact will be admitted by
all, and We do not deem it expedient or neces-
| cary to urge it any further.
four space being limited, we must discon
tinue the subject for the moment, but it shal
bo resumed in our next number.]
