FREE TRADE CONVENTION


One may we'll apply to the proceedings of this
CONGESTION the following distitch:
''The King of France, with forty thousand men,
Marched up the hii., and then marched down again.
The convention met and adjourned, and met
ngain and adjourned, made a Anjglty parade in
choosing President and Secretary, sent out n
committee, That came IN with an address, adepted
that address, appointed committee to prepare
i memorial to congress, and adjourned without
day. No facts were collected no investigations
were made. The address has not the merit of any
thing new, in assertion or in argument. 1t is a
i.ere 'eold meat hosh," without spices or gravy.
The nullifiers in force amongst the tariff men.
They were jOvial, comfortable set of fellows: no
caro- sat on their brows, gricfs brooding on
their countcnances They talked of the depres-
sion and prostrltion of the South but their
whole physiognony, all their conduct, was at
war with their talk. 1t is probable they be-

they actors, and made haste away lest
the poliicness Of the PhladephiaEs should not
hold out, and their courtesy yield to ridicule.
There began TO be hints thrown out of

upon securing ':freedom," to certain class of the
human family. The free traders most propably did
not relish the joke, and got glimpse of the
attitude in which it placed Them No evil can result

The following opinion OF DR.. Goldman late Pro-

College, New York, &c. &c. carries with it de-
served weight in regard to the superior effects of
the Hrcanun', in ambiguous diseases.
"My knowledge of the properties and operation
OF the =" .4reannm Of DIR. Phelp8," justify me in
saying that it is far superior TO any depuratiye
syrup with which am acquainted. In the most
obstinate and ambiguous diseases, it displays effects
peculiarly surprising. In those affections that re-
slst the skill OF the physician, such rheumatism
syphilIs, scrotula, liberation, and diseases Of the
SKIN, &c. would recommend it as worthy Of great
confidence. JOHN ID. GOODMAN. M ID.
