Calhoun and he Administration.

The coalition which has taken place be-
tween the Nullifers and the "Rogucs and
Royalists," rs one Of the parties to the COM
pact, Mr.. Pickens, used to call the Admins
tration party, is the prevailing topic of news
paper remark. There is no doubt of the fact.
Strange as it may seem, it is nevertheless
true. The bargain has not only been ratified,
but proclaimed, from official sources, on both
sides. How it was brought about-who it
was that made the first overture, we do not
exactly know; but certain it is that Mr.. Cal
houn himself, few days ago, crawled into
the Presidential mansion, to make his obei-
sance, and give i'll his adherence, over all the
wrath, and scorn, and contempt, he has felt
and expressed for Mr.. Van Buren,, ever since
he supplanted him in the confidence of Gen.
Jackson, and put him hors du CONDUIT, in the
struggle for the succession! How Mr.. CAL
houn could so humilate himself, of course
surprises every body. Nor is it less mar
vellous by what magic influence, the fol-
lowers Of Mr.. Calhoun-Pickens, Rhett,
Sheppard, &c.-men hitherto of such ''lofty
pretensions and terrifying exactions'' in the
way of chivalry, honor and all that-could
have been brought down, as it We're in a
twinkling, to the same self-degrading pos
ture! Nay, it is more than marvelous-it is
absolutely astounding to the moral sense Of
the country. Fortunately, however, enough
is known of the intent and baseness of the
coalition to render it perfectly harmless to all
but the actors in it. 1t is but another scheme
to strengthen Mr.. Van Buren, for the next
race, and shows the terror, Notwithstanding
all the DISCUSSES, which the nomination of
Harrison has created. The consideration
promised to Mr.. Calhoun and his friends, is
said to be, the neutrality Of the Globe news
paper in the question of succession between
Calhoun and Benton! Precious contingent
cy!-one which we hope the People will take
care shall never happen.
Alas, for the little band of Nullifers -
Who could have predicted for them so inglo-
rious an end! What ridiculous finale to SO
much gasconade! Was ever so much patri-
otism bought for so small price Too pure
and sublimated in their principles to act with
any of the parties of the country, they have
stood aloof from them for years, as if their We
ry touch would be contamination and yet
we see them now, sold out-transferred, ':bag
and baggage for the paltry consideration of
a sRogue's" promise! But it is in vain to
moralize. The thing is done-the bargain
has been struck by the great chief, and every
true-hearted Nullifier has nought to do, hut
kiss great Martins toe

THE LEGISLATURE

Yesterday, the House of Delegates rose at
an early hour. The House is not yet full,
and some matters of general character there
fore lie on the table. Among these are the
Reports from the Committee of Privileges
and Elections, in the cases of Marshall and
Monongaia counties. Mr.. Byrd's resolution
10 fix distant day for the election of the u
nited States Senator, was taken up, but not
carried.
The Senate was to meet yesterday, in pur-
suance of their adjournment; but a quorum
did not appear-only fourteen being in place
Several Senators have no doubt been detain-
ed by the very inclement weather which has
set in.-EnGuircr, Jan. 4.

HARRISON IN TENNESSEE.

Tennessee was one of the three States not
represented in the late Harrisburg National
Convention. But no sooner does the ac-
count of its proceedings reach Nashville, than
the Wing, of that city, hoists the banner of
Harrison and Tyler. In reference to these
nominations, that paper says:
The course ofthe Wings ofTennesseeis now
to US as clear as the noon day sun-and we
are proud to add after full and free inter-
change of sentiment with our friends in and
out of the General Assembly, that there will
be but ONE VOICE on the subject. We,
in Tennessee, go for the "Union Of tie JPhiss,
for tie sake Of the Union," and to effect this
great purpose-a purpose, which, if accom-
plished, we verify believe, will rid the Gov
eminent of one of the most despicable Admin
istrations that ever cursed a free country-we
promise a ''long phil and strong pull" in
November, 1910, for HARRISON and TY-
LER.

Democratic National Convention.

The Central Committee for the State of y
Hampshire have issued Circular recommen-
ding that the National Convention of the De-
mocratic Republican party, for nominating
candidates for the Presidency and Vice Pres
idency of the United States, be held at Balti-
more on Tuesday, the fifth day of May.
A Convention is strongly recommended by
the fact, that there are several persons named
for the Vice Presidency. The Republican
members of the Virginia Legislature have al
ready thrown out such suggestion in the
resolutions they have recently addressed to
the People of Virginia.-Enq.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.

About seven miles below this town, on the
night of the 9th ult. seven boats, laden with
merchandise for this place, was destroyed by
an explosion of gunpowder. The boats had
been forced by the inclemency Of the weather
to go ashore; there were about $50 kegs Of
powder on board Of them; by some unknown
means fire was communicated to the powder,
and 40 or so kegs exploded. -Four ofthe boat
men were killed, and the loss in merchandise
is estimated atbetween 81, 900 and $4,000.

extraordinary chemical composition, the re-
suit of science, and the invention of n Of
Drated medical man, the introduction Of
which to the public was invented with the
solemnty of death bed bequest, has since
gained reputation unparalleled, fully sus-
tanning the correctness of the lamented DR..
Gridiey's last confession, that he dared
not die without giving to posterity the BEN
eft of his knowledge on this subject" and
he therefore bequeathed to his friend and
attendant, Solomon Hays, the secret Of his
discovery.
1t is now used in the principal hospitals,
and the private practice in our country, first
and most certainly for the cure ofthe Piles.

Ran,matory and Bilious diseases which pre-
vail to so great an extent at the commence

indicated by a foul tongue, bitter ratok-

morning, slight headache, and uneasy SEN
sations in the stomach, sometimes accom-
panied by sickness and chill. Now a.
though the proprietors of this article would
not advise any person IN health to take med
icine of any kind, they wonld recommend
that when the approach of disease is indl-

at once resort to medicine calculated to pre-
vent or cure the disease, and restore the

HEADACHE.

DR. e. SPOEN, a German physician
~ ofmuch note, having devoted his at
tentlon for some years to the cure and re-
moval of the causes of the NERVOUS
AND SICK HEADACHE, has the salts
faction to make known, that lie has rene-
dy which by removing the causes cures et-
tectually and permanently this distressing
complaint. There are many families who
have considered Sick Headache consti-
tutional ncurable family complaint. DR..
$. assures them that they are mistaken. and
laboring under distress which they might
not only alleviate, but eradicate by the use
of his remedy.
1t is the result of scientific research, and
is entirely ofa different character from ad-
vertised patent medicines, and is not un-
pleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that DR..
Spohn's remedy for this distinguished COM
plant is every day gaining, is certainly q
matter of much astonishment. That SO
much suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an actual preyen-
tive or cure, is truly subject of much re-
gret, but DR.. s. now assures the public
that such remedy has been invented as
will convince the most incredulous. The
pricipes upon which it acts are simple and
PLAIN. 1t is an admitted fact that this COM
plant, whether called sick headache, or ner-
vous headache, arises primarily from the
stomach-those who think they have the
Nervous Headache may rest assured TINT
this organ, the stomach, is the first cause
that the system has become vitiated or de-
bilitated, through the stomach, and that
only through the same channel must they
expect a restoration of the natural and
healthy functions of the system. This OBJ
| ject DR.. Sphon's remedy is eminently calcu-
lated to attain. The truth Of this position
cannot be controyerted, and the sooner suf-
ferers with the headache become convinced
of it, the sooner will their sufferings end in
the restoration of health. DR.. Spohn
pledges his professional reputation on this
fact. The remedy may be had of apothe-
carries generally throughout the United
States.
