From Ac Charleston Mercury, Eel. 8.

We had no letter from Washington yes
,erday, but the proceedings of the House
on Saturday we're without interest. The
Senate was not in session. The Mails
will be due from Washington to-day.
The Madisonian of Saturday, defines its
position on The Presidency: 1t is opposed
to Van Buren on various grounds-one OF
which is the uniform hostility Of. the grea-
fer portion of MIR. Van BIS. friends 10 Mr.
Tyler during his term Of office-and an
other is The Caucus system Of nomination
adhered TO in Mr.. Van Buren's favor. by
which as the MadisoniaD argues, candi-
dates are forced upon the people, instead
of being selected by them: But that pa
per also declares utter and ireconsible hos.
iility to Mr.. Clay and his measures, and
ends by saying its position is one Of armed
neutrality between The parties.
In the same number We find cores
poudence that has Interested US, between
Mr. Saunders of the House. and Mr.. Hem
shaw. late Secretary Of the Navy: The
latter reviews The various petty ISLANDERS
tina, have been put in circulation against
his character as an honest man, aud which
have even been set up as the preiexts Of
his rejection by the Senate. Mr.. Heushaw
shows in very simple aud very conciu-
sive way that these impntatons were
ISLANDERS, and very silly and poorly con-
trived ores. We trust there IS TOO 'aeo
dignity in The Senate 10 keep the veil over
their proceedings in this case. Mr.: Hen.
shaw has heen considered an able, faithful
and efficient administrator Of the Navy
Deparlment-we have ever considered
him, and have no doubt that the country
has suffered loss by his rejection. Ihe
general belief is thai he was rejected be-
cause he was neither aClay man nor
Van Buren man. But whatever the rea-
sons, we presume the Senate Will NOT
shrink from avowing them.

THE
Patent Lace.

INVENTED BY e. p. BANNING MD.
OF PITTSBURGH PENNSYLVANIA,
Will be kept constantly on hand by DIR.
w. p. Russell, of Middlehury, he having
purchased of the Original Patentee the er-
ctusire right to make and rend the same with
in and for the County of Addison, VT, and
in Essex County State of New York.
The Patent Lace has now been before the
public for number of months-hundreds
have been applied in different parts of the
country, and with a success never before
equalled by any REMEDIAL agent. Numerous
well authenticated certificates of its beneficial
influence in the removal of diseases of long
standing, might be furnished from this imme-
diate vicinity-in addition to the statement
of cases and certificates of cures furnished by
DIR. Banning and others. But this is not
deemed necessary, as at the present time ref
erence can be given to individuals wearing
the Lace in nearly every Town in the Coun-
ty.
supporter differently constructed and more
perfect in its adaptation to the human form
than any that had been presented to the pub
lie. The invention of DIR Banning's meets
with their general appreciation, as it is de-
signed to relieve symptoms, and to remedy a
class of physical maladies which can not be
reached by medicines alone.
The decent or displacement of the vicera
from relaxation of the abdominal muscles or
other causes tends to alter and derange the
function of every organ in the human system,
and in many cases this deviation from the
natural healthy position of parts is the sole
cause of general debility in Males g. Females
of Dyspepsia, affections of the Stomach and
LiUer Palpitation Of The Heart, Spinal Irri-
tation, Hysteric Hypocondrid, Piles, Prolap-
sas Uteri, Suppression Of Urine. The Br0n-
chitiS of public speakers, and incipient Con-
sumption-all of which will be much relieved
if not entirely removed by the use of the Pa
tent Lace, when their existence is caused by
Physical arrangement and a mechanical dis
placement of parts which can be readily as
certained by observing the form and symp-
toms of the person affected.
This instrument has been examined by
Drs. Mott, Rogers, Frances and Griscomb
of New York, the Faculty Of Pittsburgh,
Hartford and New Haven and has obtained
their favorable testimony.
Application for the Lace can be made at
the honse of the subscriber, two doors south
of the Court House. Patients at a distance
will be visited at their residence if required.
A specimen of the Lace together with va
rious kinds of the most approved Trusses
now in use can at any time be examined at
the Druggist store of Russell g. Gridley first
door south of the Post Office.
