The late James Dole, Esq. of Troy, was the
person who introduced ths celebrated remedy
INTO extensive use in this vicinity. During the
revolutionary war, Mir. Dole was an officer IN a
troop ofcavalrv-was attacked with the small poX
in a very severe manner. While he was conval-
scent. but as vet perfectly blind, he was led out
OF the Hospital, when he was met by German
Woman. who promised to cure him on condition
that he should never reveal the composition of the
Eve Water unless upon his dcath-bed. These
facts Mr.. Dole has communicated to me; and,
after urgent solicitations, has uniformly refused
TO communicate the secret to me. Mr.. Dole died
in Troy, in 1924, and few days previous to his
dccease, revealed the composition to the wife of
his son.

Everglades, and hanging those who had SO
vlIainously betrayed him last summer. We

IMPORTANT FROM WASHINGTON.


Movements of The Neac administration Party--
Progress ofhe Great Revolution.
Great and important events have crowded
upon US for the last few days. The final ex-
posion Of the United States bank-the proba-
bic suspension of all the southern banks--the
expected revulsion in the state credit of Penn
syvania, now reduced to the condition of the
state of Mississipp-the approach of General
the new administration party at Washington
are all adding excitement to excitement, and
fame to fame.
Where is TO be the end of all this, God only
knows. Look out for squalls all round.
From Washington, we learn that the private
meeting or caucus Of the wing members of the
House was held on last Wednesday evening.
1t was full meeting, and some curious symp-
toms made their appearance. We have not
yet heard the full particulars, but we believe
shat Mr.. Wise took very prominent par.,and
perhaps to this may be attributed the emeu,e
between Mr.. Adams and him in the House.
Nearly similar plan Of operations were pro-
posed as that in the private meetings of the
Senate. There is TO be an extra session, and
at tha, session all the measures of the new ado
ministratinn are to he matnreJ. A committee,
consisting of one from each State, is TO be
formed, in order to meet the wing Senators,
and consult on all matters connected with the
new administration. Another meeting is to be
held on "Wednesday Of this week, for the pur-
pose OF finally forming the plan Of operations,
as to Offices aud measures to be recommended
to Genera! Harrison, who will be on the ground
about that period.
Such is our latest private news from WASH
ington, in relation to the new whig adminst.a-
tion The explosion Of the United States
bank, and the suspension Of all the other banks
south of Philadelphia, may have great effect
on these political movements. 1t is impossi-
bic to tell what complexion things may take.
The appointment OF committees in Congress,
for the purpose Of organizing measures for
Gen. Harrison, or Of selecting or recommend
ing removals or appointments TO Office, seems
to be matter Of questionable policy. Gener-
al Harrison is the head of The executive de-
partncnt of government, and on him is the
responsibility Of selection and appoin',nents.-
The organization Of cliqnes, or of committees,
to decide on public policy, or on official appoint
menis, will not be submitted to by the variou
cliqnes of the various States who manage and
control their several parties at home. 1t Is
highly probable, also, that the future of the
United States bank, and the general confusion
Of the times, will be more favorable than 9TH
erwisc to the intentions Of Gen. Harrison, and
may permit him to carry cut the purposes OF
the country, uninfueuced by corrupt and assn
ming cliques Of fnaaciers and politicians.
Every day now will bring important news
from W ashington.
