Mr.. CLAY AS a DUELLrsT.-The Penn
sylvanian, in allu1ng to the attempts Of
Of the wings 10 evado the true point at
issue upon this subject by referringto Gen.
Jackson, says
"Wha, Andrew Jackson and Henry
Clay may have dono in early life, under
tho influence of strong passions, and by
the stimulus Of the example and custom of
the society in which they lived, is a matter
of itself, 10 be decided upon with such al
lowance of charity as men may be disposed
TO grant to error. The purpose Of the
democratic press is neither to condemn in
this view of the case, but to prove, from
undeniable facts, that what Henry Clay
was as n duelhst in 1909, when he fought
Humphrey Marshall, he still was in 1925,
when he endeavored to draw challenge
from George Kremer; that he was the
same in 1926 when he fought John Ran
dolph; the same in 1888, when he was i'm
plicaled in the proceedings, and with his
own hand pcnned The challenge, which led
10 the murder Of Jonathan CilIey; and en-
pliatIcally the same-quarrelsomc, violent,
and pugnacious-in 1871, when he insult
ed Mr.. King on the floor Of the Senate, TO
elicit challenge from that gentleman;
fighting in 1909 and 1926, and ''under
bonds 10 Keep the peace" in 1914, impoS-
ed three years before to prevent him from
fighting again. This is the point. There
is no change in Mr.. Clav--no reformation,
no repentence-no difference Of conduct
or control of passion, but just as ready TO
plunge into quarrel and dip his hands in
blood when between sixty and seventy
years Of age, as he was when twenty five
or thirty.

the stomach and bowels to a healthy action.
Many fail in efiectng a permanent cure of thu
ague and fever, by not following up the tonic ant
stimulating effect after the paroxism is broken, fo
which these btters are esgned and peculiarly
well calculated to effect. And also in convalescen

OIL OF TANNIN,
OR LEATHER RESTORER.

NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY. .%9
Most people know that skins AMI hides are convert
ed into leather by the Of Tannn extracted from
certain banks, &c.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn
out leather becomes dead, hard dry, brittle cracked
covered with crust &C. THIS ALL KNOW. To re-
store, then, life sotness, moisness strength smooth
ness, and ramove all crust fly, bster-restore the
tannin This substance the leather never can receive
the second time; but the whole virtues Of it are in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-whch pene-
trates the stiest and hardest LEATHER if it has been
twenty years in use; and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it impars at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. 1t becomes like new leather,
in all respects, with delightful softness and polish,
and makes all leather completely and perfectly i'm
pcryious to waterparticulary boots, shoes, carri-
etops, harness. hose trunks and in fact all things
made of leather, giving splendid polish, even high
er than new leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability in whatever manner the leather
is used. THESE ARE FACTS.
Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with
corns, tide with old carrage-topshave old harness,
and throw them away half used-look filthy them
selves and all about them--expend double what is
necessary for articles Of leather to thor hearts
tent, for what we care, If their prejudces so
strong, they will GOT try discovery. We have no
avors to ask of them, they the greatest sufferers
aud we beg for nobody's custom or patronage Now,
