But 1t is useless to waste our time with
those people; they are looking after their
schemes of personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT; Po-
llIlcs with them is trade, and like any
other tradesman they sell their wares in

which they can have on the Republican
party of Virginia, we should feel odrsel
dIsgraced if we harbored such thought
1t is all nonsense tc suppose that rea.

support of good citizens, Thousands and
tens of thousands of the better portion OF
those who have voted the locoroco tick

vote for Henry Clay. They must be
convinced that the principles he advo-

of Henry Clay, and the carrying out of
Wing principles will effect all this, then

WORkSOF NATURE.

In state of health the intestinal canal
may be compared to river whose waters
flow over the adjoining land, through the
channels nature or art has made, and i'm
proves their qualities; and TO keep up the
comparison of the river) so long as it runs
on smoothly the channels are kept pure
and healthy but by some cause the course
of the river is stopped, then the water in
the canals is no longer pure, bu, soon be-
comes stagnant. There is bu, one law of
circulation in nature, When there is a
supe'abundance of Immortal fluid (serosi-
y in the intestinal tubes, and coslveness
takes place, it flows back into the blood
vessels, and inflira,es itself iu,o the cir
culation. To establish the free course of
the river, we must remove the distractions
which stop its free course, and those of It's
tributary streams. With the body, fol-
10" the same natural principe-remove,
by that valuable purgatlve medicine called
Stainburn's Vegetable Extract Pills, which
are an eflectuaI assistant of nature, the
superabundance of humors in the intestin-
al canal. By persevering in this practice,
the ways of the circulation will then be
restored to the full exercise of their na.ur-
al functions, and state of health will be
firmly established. Remember, never suf-
fer drop of blood to be taken from you.
Evacuate the humors as often and as long
as they are degenerated, or as long as you
are sick.

MIR. CLAY AND INGERSOLL

Extract from the Washington CORES
pondent of the Philadelphia u. S. Gazette
You will observe that Mr.. C. }. ImgersolI
has felt himself authorized to charge Mr.
Clay with running race of Reputation
of protection TO home industry with Mr..
Van Buren,. This is a serious charge to
be made by one in Mr.. Ingersolls posi-
ton.
Mr.. Clay was in the House of Repre-
seniatives yesterday when Mr.. Ingersoll
coming up and addressing him, Mr.. C.
said, "Mr. lngersoll, by what authority do
you say that have repudia,ed or aban-
doned the principle of protection % Mr..
l. replied; upon the authority of gentle
man oiintegrity, personal friend of yours
and high tariff man, who informed me
that he had seen letter written by you
about the time Of the passage of the COM
promise act, in which YOU agreed to give
up the principle of protection. Mr.. Clay:
It is falsehood. My speeches at the time,
my speeches and letters since, prove the
contrary.
Mr.. 1.-The gentleman who informed
me did moi see the letter, but received his
information from one who had seen the
letter, and is worthy friend of yours.
MIR. C.-Jew or Gentle, Turk or Chris
tan, present my compliments TO him, and
say that the charge is utterly untrue, and
tell him to produce the letter.
The above is the substance, and as near
as can be recollected, the very words of
the conversation. Mr.. lngersoll has made
the charge, he must now produce the
proof or retraet, as | doubt net he will.
You will observe that he relies entirely
on hearsay and secondhand evidence,
and even that will fail him.
