THE CONSTITUTION.

What is that we call the Constitution The
constitution is evidently that which constitutes,
and that which constitutes is the blood. We, there
fore, know that the blood is the constitution, and
that good or bad constitution is neither more nor
less than good or bad state the Jlood There's is
no person who having lost health, does not wish to
have it restored. Use then The proper means Ex-
pei with PuygatiUe Medicine all currupt humors
from the body, and the blessing, Health, will be
the certain result for all pains unpleasant feel
ines proceed from the presence of corrupt or vi
tiated humors, which are the real cause Of every
disease and therefore the only disease to which the
human frame is subject, because they clog up the
veins and arteries, and prevent the free circulation
OF the blood.
BrGaGreths Vegeta5le CnicersaI Pills cure this
disease: because they remove the corrupt or vi
tiated humors by the stomach and bowels, leaving
the good humors to give life and health to the bo-
dy. 1t is morally impossible that they can fail to
cure, provided Nature is not entirely exhausted

StagnatiOn OF the Blood.

The repeated changes in the atmosphere, by act-
ing they do upon the consistence and quality OF
the blood, give occasion for the most fatal and.ma
lignant disorders The blood from state of health
becomes stagnant and is plunged into state OF
corruption.
Thus it loses its purity: its circulation is impe-
ded the channels Of life ctogged; the boUels be-
come costiUe, and if not an immediate attack of
some malignant fever, headache, nausea, loss of
appetite, and general debility Of the whole frame
are sure to follow.
1t requires the tempest and the tornado to bring
about state of purity in the ocean, when its wa
ters become stagnant; and it will require repeat
ed evacuation by the stomach and bowels before
the blood can be relieved of its accumulated I'M
purity.
BrandretNs Vegetable Unl0ersal Pills,
should be taken, then there will be no danger; be-
cause they purge from the stomach and bowels
these humors which are the cause of stagnation
cleanse the blood from all impurities, every
cause Of pain 'oeakeSS, and preserUe the c0nsti-
tuition in a state of HEALTH and vIGOR that causual
changes cannot effect.

State would be better served by less irc-
Equent sessions of the two Houses. The
State OF Tennessee, Missouri, Delaware.
Maine, and perhaps some others, have
adopted the plan Of Biennial sessions.
We know not any State tia, having once
tried the experiment has changed back
AGAIN to annual sessions. They appear
to be pleased with the new system and
lind that 1t answers all useful purposes.
II any matter Of pressing importance
and incapable of delay should require
Legislative action, it wonld always be in
the power of the Governor 10 convene
the two Houses upon the emergency.
For the usual business of legislation one
session every two years would, we think,
be amply suflicent-Bal. finer.

bring an immense empire under her con-
trol--and there is no voice raised AGAINST
lt-no jealousy expresscd-no fears Ce-
clared. The scene of action is indeed re-
mote; but the matter will be found to con-
Germ other nations quite nearly when the
trade with China becomes subject to Eng
fish regulations.'
1t is scarcely to be doubted, that the
British Government have it in view, to
conquer China, as they did IIindostan. II
their sense Of justice permitted them to
make conquest in the one case, it can with
equal propriety allow them to do 1t in the
other; and the temptation to their avarice
is greater in this case perhaps, than in the
former. It's not in the East alone, that
she is wishing to extend her empire; she
is now, it is said, in treaty with Spain, for
the island Of Cuba, and there is rood
reason to believe that she conlemplates,
to lay claim to the Pacific coast. with the
view Of connecting Fort Vancouver with
Canada. Ifthese things are so, the Unit
ed States have as much reason to rcmon-
sf:ate, Is the European Powers.
Bnt great Britain herself may have as
much to fear from extension of empire
as any other power. History abounds
with instances of nations who like her,
have pursued their propensity to grasp
after dominion, regardless of justice and
right, until their deeds ofopprcssion have
aroused the oppressed to action, and ex-
cited the jealousy Of rival powers, and
then power and empire, have been snatch
ed away from them, with ten fold the ra-
PIdlty witt: which they had been acquired.
The powers Of Europe, particularly the
ever jealous French, influenced by their
lavorite policy, the preserving the balance
ofpower, will not allow the British to pro
coed much Gurther,-a few more seizures
OF American vessels, and Jonathan will
be down upon them in his wrath--the
sons of the Emerald Isle are waiting for
something ofthis kind to take place-they
are crouchcd ready, and at a beck from
Daniel, they in twinkllng would spring
to aims, and assert their right to have the
union existing between them and England
repealed.

BlENN lAL SESSlON.-The State of
Name has been all independent State Just
twenty one years says an exchange paper.
"She has therefore now become of lawful
age Having thus arrived at years of dis
cretlon, lis Legislature has done one SEN
sible thing. 1t has abolished its annual
sessions and provided for bennial.n
The State Of Maryland became of law
full age many years ago. Whether she
has yet arrived atyears of dicret:on is an
other thing. We think it would be one
proof of her mature wisdom to make the
sessions of her Legislature biennial in
stead Of annual. We are in this Com
monwealth at point which requires the
adoption Of every proper expcdient to pro-
mote economy, TO reduce all expences
that will bear reduction, and to husband

tage. ltwould be well to consider wheth-
er we migltnot do with smaller share of
legislation than we have been in the hab-
it of enjoying. The world, it is said, IS
governed too much-but abating some
thing of the comprehensivenes of the
phrase, we might say in all moderation
that some States in this Union are govern
ed too much, and perhaps we arc among

When legislative bodies meet often, they
are induced sometimes TO legislate unne-

no occasion for their coming together.
Besides, it is added, that oysters, terra
pms, and canvasshacks, are in their best
condition during the law making season,
and they are to be had at the seat of Go
vernment in their highest perfection.
Hence there Is no hurry 10 adjourn.
But as matter of serious consideration
it is worth while TO inquire whether the
State could not dispense with annual le-
gislative sessions not only without incon-
venience but with positive advantage
There would be, as consequence of

until they would command par value. We
have not time to notice the various pro-
visions of the bill, but such is their nature
that 1t Is doubtful whether the Canal Com

whether it is as Observation-Disclosures

ATTACK ON CANTON. 1t will be seen
by the extracts i'll our paper to day, from
The news per the Narragansett, from Can

In their inglorious attack on that city.
There is scarcely on record an in
stance of more unjust, dishonorable, and
Plratlcal war--a war as unworthy Of the
great nation who is carrying it on, as it is
shocking to humanity-an attempt to
force people who, though they may be
concelted and naughty, are innocent and
moilcnslye, to continue to receive in tral-
iic,a poison, that has been destroying the
notwithstanding the mental and
physical strength Of thousands of them,
and rendering them bur,hens to them
selves and to society. In speaking of
this war the Baltimore American observes:
The ultimate designs of Great Britain
in her movements upon China may be the
SUBJECT OF conjecture-but they have new
err been fully declared. Perhaps they
may be dependent upon the success of
the first attack. New ideas and purpo-
SEES may be entertained, including more
extensive and magnificent projects, in pro-
portion as the way opens for further a.
chievements.
1t is a little remarkable that the aggra-
dizing progress of England in the East
has drawn forth no complaint nor remon-
STRANGE from the other great Powers of
Europe. France is rebukcd and held in
check because of her operations in Al

pretended designs of encroachment. In
