WAsHINaroN, Jan. 49, 1843.
Mr. Joseph E. Hover Sir: have made use Of
your Black Ink sufficiently long to ascertain that it
possesses all the desirable qualities which are neces-
sary in the employment of steel pens more fully than
any kind of ink that l. had previously essayed, and
have got pretty well through the catalogue. have
not taken the trouble to test it chemically as this
has been already done by others whose certificates
are satisfactory to me though the experiments
had been made by myself
THOMAS P. JONES.
WASHINGTON, Jan. %, 18l3.
Mr.. Joseph T. Hover: Sir: have examined and
used part of the specimens of ink which you left with
me, and am prepared to speak favorably Of them
both Since began to metallic pens, huvo
never been able TO obtain ink which would not moro
or less coa7ode, and speedily destroy them. Yours
appears to be free from every corrosive ingredient.
The marking ink possesses, in my opinion, all the
qualities which are requisite to give to the article
very high character. Yours, respectfully.

DIR. McNAIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL.-Those deaf
from infancy often receive, in most miraculous
manner their hearing when they least expect it, by
some trihing accident or event, which shows them
how easily they might have much sooner had their
hearing and saved themselves and their friends the
pain of conversng 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
affection, and enjoy the social qualities implanted in
our natures! This EAR OIL has the effect so to re-
eve the tension and bring into the natural action
of the parts SO to restore the hearing when lost
impaired This is proved by so many and well-known
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 1t will relieve at once, Or if
DEAFNESS is just commencing, will remove the
cause and check its progress Those who have been
long deaf should continue Its application few weeks
to hear well. Each flask has full directions for

Harper, why don't you give us more renun-

the other day. We have not had room, positive
ly! We have collected several columns, in ad-
dtion TO those heretofore published, and will lay
them before our readers next week, and no mis-
take. They will come like thunder storm up

End of the World.

We have had our attention called TO the cad
dress" of the Second Advent Conference, re-
Gently held in Boston, by which it appears that
the statement attributed to Father Miller, that
he had given up waiting for the end of the world,
is incorrect. The Address says:
"The events in the history of the world, and
the signs of the times all assure us that the end
is near.
The prophetic periods, as we have under
stood them from the first, bring us to the same
result. Indeed we have felt for more than year
past, that their termination might be expected
at any time; and although there may appear to
be delay of the events which are then to come
we are confident that our views of these periods
are based upon data and interpretations which
no man has been able to overthrow. 1t is true
we have been called 10 wait beyond the definite
time at which it was supposed that there was
reason 10 expect the end would GOMEZ But We
believe as fully as ever, that those periods ex-
press the time Of that erent, that at the time APP
pointed the end shall be, and that ii cannot be fd1
distant in the future"

The editor of the Gallatn ('Tenn,) Union, in
giving an account ot recent visit which he
made to the Hermitage, makes the following al
fusion to a scene of deep soemnity that he was
brought to witness on the occasion:
"There was an interesting but solemn scene
presented on the Sabbath, 1t was communion
season in the Hermitage church. The General
and his friends were there early at the morning
prayer meeting. And at the close Of the SER
mon preceding the breaking of bread, Andrew
Jackson took his seat at the table, B. F. Butler
by his left side, and an affectonate daughter on
the other, with his neighbors and friends seated
around and on either side, and there partook,
perhaps for the last time, of the embems of the
broken body and shed blood of their Lord and
Savior. Beautiful contrast. The man whose
voice had often been heard leading on armies TO
battle in defence of his country, and then filling
the highest political Office in the gift of nation,
and giving council to the world, now seated at
the table of the Lord in meek submission, cele-
bratng his death and suffering. And, like
"The tossd seaman, after bost'rous storms
Lands on his country's breast,''
He seeks repose in retirement, and finds peace
and consolation that the world cannot give OIL
take away"

WING PRINCIPLES.

S. B. Shotwell, in a speech made from one of
the public corners, on the evening the coons put
up that little poplar walking stick, undertook in
his usual pity and sarcastic manner, TO make
sport of our beautiful flag, while its ample folds
were streaming -gaily on the breeze. "Stop,"
said he, "until we put up our flag, and then
you'll see our principles inscribed on tive
won't have one like that the lokies put up, with
out any principles!" Well, the coon flag did
make its appearance, and what were the "prin-
cpes it was to unfold? Not word or letter
was on the black pjratical colors! Ifsuch flag
were seen in the Mediterranean Sea, the craft
bearing it would be run down as pirate, and
the crew gibeted as hostis hamani generis!

THE COONS,

The other day, raised little poplar stick in
the vicinity of the Court House, and put few
ash branches on its top! On the 4th, an ugly
looking thing was hanging from it, which would
make horse laugh to look at! There was
first black piece of calico fixed in frame, on
which somebody made a picture looking more
like the bird of Minerva than our own proud ca
gle. From this frame a long piece of blue and
white calico hung down like dirty wet table
CLOTH The whole concern looked exactly like
the whig party. The little poplar stick, like
that party, will blow over and break to pieces by
the autdmnal winds, while our noble hickory will
stand erect defying the tempest and the whirl-
wind And that motley flag reminds one forci-
bly, of the conglomerated mass of discordant
materials composing the opposition-the black,
the blue, and the aphite.
" Black spirits and white,
Blue spirits and grey,
Mingle, mingle, mingle,
You that mingle may!''

EXCITING times-DeoM Of the Prophet!
There has been a schism among the Momons
at Nauvoo. The seceders started a paper called
the Expositor, which, as its title imports, exposed
the villainy and deDauchery of Joe Smith and
his followers, by publishing true statement of
his deception and infamy. For so doing, Smith
and his associates in crime mobbed the office,
and completely demolished the press and type.
This caused the greatest excitement, not only
at Nauvoo, but also. at Warsaw, Carthage, and
the whole surrounding country; and the whole
people and military seemed 10 rise up en- masse,
TO exteminatc the prophet and his colleagues.
10 Smith was imprisoned at Warsaw, on a
charge of treason. Gov. Ford had the Jail guar
ded by soldiers, and while Jo attemted 10 escape
from window, hundred balls entered his body,
and he fell lifeless corpse. His brother Hi
ram shared the same fate, and other leading
Mormons were badly wounded.

The utmost good feeling peryaded among our
friends, and the links which unite US as a band
of brothers, were frightened and strengthened.
God grant that as nation we may never cease
to celebrate the day on which the yoke of des-
potism was shaken off by our patriotic fathers.
Let US cherish the Constitution under which we
live, as the sheet-anchor ofour safety, and never
consent 10 let the hands of Goths aud Vandals
touch its sacred leaves to tarnish its beauty and
perfection.

THE FOURTH OF July

Was celebrated by the Democracy of Harrison
county in spirited and appropriate manner.
A very excellent dinner was served up by our
townsman, Mr. JAMES CADY, in the beautiful oak
grove of Mr.. John Sharp, Immediately adjoining
town. Judge MAXWELL the old Revolutionary
Democrat, who never cast federal vote in his
life, presided on the occasion, assisted by MUM
Der of Vice Presidents. 1t done our heart good
to see the Judge once more mingling with his
fellow-citzens ON the birthday of our nations
freedom. The federal party, reckless as unprn-
cipled, had circulated far and near that Judge
Maxwell was going to throw his influence in be-
half of Henry Clay, and had abandoned his an
cient democratic faith! Persons who are ac.
quainted with the old +" Consistent Republican,"
knew this to be sheer fabrication, which had
its origin in the fertile brains of federal fiction
lists There was the old Democrat in our midst,
giving the lie at once TO the base SANDER. With
tottering limbs and feeble voice, he arose and
said, that if it pleased Providence to spare him
until the election, he would cast his vote for Polk
and Dallas,
The Declaration of Independence was read
by Mr.. J. r. HUNTER, after which the meeting
was addressed by Mr.. T1DBALL of ST. Glars
vile, Mr. WORRIES of Millersburgh, and Mr.
PEPPARD of Cadiz, in speeches peculiarly suited
to the day and the times. The regular toasts
were read by L. P. MILLIGAN, Esq. While Mr.
iod., J,,n1
busy taking down notes, and frequently inter-
rupting him by asking foolish questions. We
did not succeed in ascertaining the gentleman's
name, but learned that he was perambulating
coon orator, and was preparing himself to make
a speech in the Court House in the evening.
But, tell it not in Gath, the last we heard of his
coonship, instead of treating our citizens to an
essay on the beauties of coonery, he had treated
himself to Hwee drop too much of rye juice,
and was seen curled up, like dead coon, under
the shade of a tree, in one of our tavern yards,
as happy as an inhabtant of Mahomet's para
disc!
There were not so. many present at our Cele-
bration as we could have wished, but there were
certainly more than we expected. Our farmers
we're in the very midst of their harvests, and of
course it was not to be presumed that they
would leave their fields, ewhere the rich earth
presented her golden treasures" when not day
or an hour could be lost, Quite number of
Ladies--God bless them-were present, on the
occasion, partook Of dinner, and remained until
tho Celebration was brought to close. The
Democratic Band of New Philadelphia, BY spe-
cial invitation, spent the day with us. They al
rived late on Wednesday night, and left on Fri
day morning. They performed admirably, and
added much TO the interest ofthe Celebration.
The day passed of very pleasantly indeed,

WOKE UP THE WRoNG PAssENGER-A few
days ago the federal coons of Albany, N. Y, an
nounced, that Gen. WADDY THonpsoN, of S. c.,
late Minister to Mexico, would address meeting
of that party, and would discuss among other
topics, the Tariff question and the policy of An
nexing Texas. Well, the meeting W as held, and
Gen. Thompson did speak on those subjects, as
per announcement; but, TO the great disappoint-
ment of the coons, he opposed protective tariff,
and was in favor of the immediate annexation of
Texas! The coons looked as though they could
crawl out of the little end of a horn!
