Conversations like the above are OF daily
occurrence. The more the Balsam is known
the more it is appreciated, and the sale is
constantly increasing, from the recommen.
dation of those who have used it and proved
its efficacy. 1t is only about a year since
this medicine was brought before the public
and the sale of it has gone beyond our most
sanguine expectations. Hardly day pass
es, but we obtain new evidence ofits superi.
GRITTY over every other preparation in use i;
either by orders from distant places. or BY
the testimony of those to whom we have sold
by the single bottle. Unlike most prepare.
tions of the kind, which contain large
quantity OF opium, and serve only to palli-
ate, (not TO cure) the disease, this medicine
gives permanent relief. 1t not only seems
to do good at first, but continued use of il
shows plainly that it is a valuable prepare.
ton, and one that under ordinary circum.
stances will do more toward the cure of
consumption, and the coughs and colds that
lead to that dreadful disease than can posi-
bly, be effected by any other treatment. In
fact, the day is not far distant when BAR
CLAY'S AMERICAN BALSAM will be the
only medicine used for pulmonary disease
In all it, varied forms. Sold in Syracuse
by the proprietors. t-

surprising about it is that the managers
should have dared to let their plans even
be insinuated through the public prints
But bribery by the direct and open use of
money in the purchase OF votes is as COM
mon in England as elections, and therefore
they have no idea of the adherence with
which such things are viewed in this coun-
try.
The Loudon Atlas, also one of the lead
ing organs Of the artistic cracy of that coun-
try, also comes out decidedly upon the
subject, and sufficiently direct to show
clearly the object of its remarks. The At
las says -
Tho election of Mr. Clay must fear, be looked
commercial restriction He has always been the consistent ad
always been Identified with that New England Masuisc-
lures WIG aim acquiring monopoly of the home market by
What is this but another appeal direct,
urging an interference against Mr.. Clay and
against the wings? The Atlas says 1--WE
fear" the q" election of Mr.. Clay" will be
"looked as to a certain extent, The confrma-
ton of the principles of commercial restrict
ion p No doubtit has such fears as
well as the other organs of the British
capitalists who wish to control our elec-
tons.
But this is not all. We have proofs on
the subject on this side of the water, and
directly at head quarters. The Madisoni-
an, John Tyler's organ at Washington
City. of the 2lst inst, contains the follow
ing upon the same subject. 1t says -
We admit that "British God has been this
abundance be expended in the advocacy of the doctrine
of free trade,''
What American can read this and not
feel his cheeks burn with Indignation, to
think that men, and party, can be found
in this country willing to receive aid from
a foreign nation to prostitute our elections
at the shrine Of mammon, to allow foreign
bribery and corruption TO 60 on unchecked
among us, and even allow themselves to
be the tools thus to bring disgrace upon
the nation and sacrifice its independence
through our own elections Can any
honest man hesitate what course to take
when such glaring evidence is before him
of the base and damning efforts making TO
subvert the freedom of elections, sacrifice
American interests, and bring us down to
the state of purchased vassals of British
aristocracy? Where has the once proud
, spirit of Liberty fled if Americans will not
arouse and put down utterly this last at
tempt TO bring us in subsection to foreign
ipoWer.
