A. POSER

We see from the papers that letters have been
addressed from various quarters of the country to
the camelion of Undertook, to elicit his senti.
ments distinctly on the subject of the tariff For
the same purpose at great meeting held in South
Carolina on the 2O,h ult the following resolutions
were passed.
"Resolved That il is essential TO the harmony
of the party and the of its principles, that
they should not nominate candidate for the Pres
idency until Congress has settled The Tariff ques
ton; and that, therefore, the usual time and place
for National Convention should not be chang
ed, and it should meet at Baltimore in May, 1914
Resolved, That we consent to be represented
in no convention ofthe party to nominate Pres
ident unless the Tariff shall hare first been reg
ulated consistently with justice to the South, anc
the pledges of the party"
These proceedings will certainly be poser tc
the Northern man with Southern principles. HI
and his followers have been ever endeavoring Il
pass themselves of at the south for free traders
and at the north as a sort of incide ntal protection
lists. 1t is full time for both north and south L
smoke out this double faced democracy from j,
sly subterfuges into broad day light, No NOR
sinking away gentlemen no more paltering, n
more thin clad pretences. Show your colors, o
give up your piratical purposes Of flching you
support from men of an opposite faith on gran
political question. Fair play is jewel.

BLACK ToNour-Dri John Kirkwood, OF
New Madrid Mo- states that the disease which
has prevailed there of late, and which was by
some called the Black Tongue, is the epidemic
winter fever Of that country, modified by sudden
atmospheric changes, and characterized, in add
ton TO its usual symptoms by local pain of n neu'
ralgic character, and in some cases sore throat
bu, in no case has the blackness Of the tongue
formed symptom of the disease. Malignant
sore throat was in some cases the most urgent s,m
tom, the tongue in some patients becoming enlarg
ed and swollen but in no instance, even III iaa
cases, did backness Of the tongue supervene.

BURNING UP WHIGGERY.

The State Register of Springfield, Illinois, of
February 10Th, says
"On Wednesday last, Gov Ford transmitted
message to both Houses stating that the State
bank had filed in the Secretary's Office written
consent, under her corporate seal, to the late law
putting her into liquidation. The Governor also
states that the bank has surrendered to him $l,.
100000 in bonds, and also, S2S7, $40 81 in Au-
di,ors warrants, which is, 10 that large amount,
diminu,ion of the publict debt. The Governor
congratula,es the General Assembly on the fortu-
nate commencement OF the great woik oil extin.
gushing the State debt
"The Governor in the same message, states,
that on Thursday, at o'clock p NJ, he would
be prepared to destroy by fire the entire amour,
of bonds, Sc. thus received from the banks; &C
cordngly on yesterday we had a splendid bon
fire, in presence of the members Of the General
Assembly, and a vast multitude of the people, as
