how easily they might have much sooner had their
hearing, and saved themselves and their friends the
pain of conversing in loud tone, without pleasure,
or Of being neglected and summed to avoid that dis
tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and
his hearers. How sacred duty, therefore, it is
that we use all necessary means to remove such an
aliction and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
our natures! This EAR OIL has the effect to re-
lieve the tension and bring into the natural action
Of the parts so to restore the hearing when lost

cases, that, where known, it needs no praise The
great wish of the proprietor is, that each may speak
to others of its uncommon virtues, till sufferers may
know and be relieved and restored by its use. This
will be done in all cases of recent DEAFNESS and
many of long standing. ALL DEAF PERSONS
should use this oil! It will relieve at once, or, il
DEAFNESS is just commencing, will remove the
cause and check its progress. Those who have been
long deaf should continue its application few weeks

MIR. CLAY AT HOME.

The Electoral College of Kentucky,
having performed the duties assigned it,
visited Mr.. Clay at Ashland They ar
lived at Lexington and proceeded on foot
to Ashland.
A correspondent of the Tribune writes
that
Mr.. CLAY, when apprised of their ap-
proach, met them at his front door. The
Electors formed in front of him, while he
stood half way down his steps. The mil.
itary formed on each side and in the rear
of them and the lawn was crowded with
anxious and deeply affected spectators.
L have never witnessed more impo-
sing scene.--You could have heard a pin
fall so thorough was the silence when MIR.
Clay appeared. Mr.. Underwood then
stepped few PAGES forward and read the
Address collectors in clear and distinct
voice although sometimes apparently al
most overwhelmed with emotion. Mr..
Clay's reply was extemporneous, but |
have rarely heard him so felicitous. 1t
cannot be remembered and written down
as it was delivered and then the effect of
his speaking countenance, his remark
able eye can never be transferred to paper.
l refer you to the public prints for both
addresses, as they will doubtless be given to
the world. Every heart was full-every
eye suffused with tears, when he referred
to his past history, the means used to de-
stroy him, and his future destiny. He
spoke without the slightest ''asperity, and
trusted that the GREAT FATHsR of us all
would still have US in His holy keeping
and dispose all things for the best.-Many
Of his political opponents were among
the crowd, and seemed deeply affected.
Would to God that,all of them in Amer
lea had been there they would have been
prepared to repent in sackcloth and ashes
for the deep injustice they have done
him. Yours, truly.

THE CATHOLIC VOTE.

The extraordinary fact, that nearly every
foreign Catholic vote in this state, was at the
late election cast against the wing party, has
excited equal surprise and alarm, and the
question has very naturally arisen, how it
found distributed in nearly equal numbers
among the different parties, the PaPists are
found consolidated in one unbroken phalanx,
and moving as ifby one common impulse.and
under the direction of a single will. II IS alb
surd to suppose that the minds OF this sect
alone are all so similarly constituted as to see
the same moral question in one iight,whi'st
other minds under the same circumstarces
