DISTRICT CONVENTION.

DISTRICT CONVENTION.
Fromthe communication already received
from various parts oil the district, no doubt, re-
mains in our,mind but that a convention for the
selections OF IA suitable ind vidual 10 run as a
candidate for Congress in the Fist District,
will meet the appreciation of the Democracy
We, therefore, would suggest 10 our friends
oil the several counties composing the Dis
trict, To appoint such number OF delegates.
IS they may deem proper, 10 meet in Con
entlon on Monday, the 7lh day of April
next. at Boonville, in Wdrrick county, for
the purpose OF making the nomination.
1t is hoped that the democracy of every
county in the district will act promptly in
this matter, and that a full representation will
be bad on the occasion, in order that
public sentiment may be clearly expressed.
We have received the following note from
a friend at Evansville, on the subject, which
shows that the democracy of Vanderburgh
are ready for action.
EVANSVILLE, Jan. 80, 1915.
"Messrs. EDIroRs: The suggestion re-
Gently made in the "American." for a Dis
trict Convention TO nominate a candidate for
Congress, in April next, has SO far as | can
learn, met with warm approval by the Dem
ocracy OF this portion OF the District. Not
withstanding our majority is large, yet unan-
imi;y and harmonious action is essential
to its continuance; and as there are several
gentlemen IN the District whose services in
behalf of the Democratic cause, have been
invulnerable-and whose friends are DESTROYS
- h. H.. b.,rhk c,ruyar1 -, a onu-a
prominent manner before the party. The
best means of conciliaiing all interests, will
be TO hold a Convention in the Spring, in
which the claims of the several individuals,
whose names have been suggested by their
friends, may be canVassed, and the wishes
of a majority of tie District clearly ascer-
tanned.
"Hoping the proposition will be respond
ed 10 favorably throughout the District, and
the call for a Convention fully sustained,
| have the honor 10 be,
your obediant servant,
VANDERBURGH."
Our object in recommending a -conven-
lion, was TO harmonic and insure a union Of
the democracy. The only way 10 do this is
by holding a convention. When the con.
vention meets and examines the merits and
qualifications of The different aspirants
if they then decide ssthat the First District
cannot be better represented than by return.
ing the present i~ucumbent,n we lay our
shoulder TO the wheel with pleasure. Bul
we cannot consent to go for any man, unles.
7 he is brought forward by a convention.
5 There can be no doubt, fIiend Burns, bu
, a large majority of our friends are in favor o
holding a convention. The rue democrat
ic mode of selecting candidates, is TO NEE
$ in convention and examine the claims o
the different aspirants, and select the bes
man to run. All we want is union aud har.
mony, and in this way it can be secured.

of the one; that Of truce is half displayed at
the masthead Of the other.
In conclusion we would repeat the opin-
ion previously expressed, that such a state
Of affairs is by no means formidable to the
government. Its friends sees much to re-
greet in the attempts to clog its action, and
in the needless state of irritation in which
many Of their opponents keep themselves.
Without partaking of that state of mind
themselves, they perceive its baneful effects
apon the harmony of society and the chart
ties Of social life. They would cure this
by making politics here as elsewhere, a sys-
TEN, a science. Let each man base his
views and principles Of action upon certain
we'll defined axioms. Unnecessary, discuss
and defend them with all the ardor of a seek
err for truth, but Danish from the domestic
board those passes of active life, which,
however much they may afford room for
political variance should allow none for per-
sonal enmity.

The Comet which is now to be seen in the

The Comet which is now to be seen in the
heavens, agrees in general appearance with
the description given of Encke's, whose
period Of revolution round the sun is about
1900 days, although it is somewhat too early
for its return. Biela's Comet appears later
in the year. Both Of these Comets, which
are the most intimately connected with our
system, are mere masses of vapor, totally
Invested of solidity, and are said to be so
small and faint, that although BieIa's Comet
passes so close to the earth that its nebu-
lous matter includes a portion of the earth's
path within it, yet neither of them it is
asserted can be detected by the naked eye.
This fact would seem to go against the
present Comet being that of Encke, although
it may be at its present visit so favorably
situated in regard to the earth, as to be
distinguished by the unaided eye, in the
faint manner in which this one appears

quer that repugnance which most persons expert
ence after taking for some time bitter poons, as il
combines the greatest efficacy with highly agree
able flavor. As preventive Of the ague it has

PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
Il OF LAW AND Equity, under the direc-
ton of Francis J. Troubat, esq, of Philadelphia;
Hen. Ellis Lewis, of Lancaster; and Wilson Nc
Candess, esq, Of Pittsburgh.
This work contains the best productions of Eng
ah law authors, without regard TO priority of claim
ON the part of any American publisher. Such books
are now VIGOROUSLY too dear. The reason is, that
as fast as they appear, they become monopolies in
the hands of booksellers in the Atlantic cities I'm
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition Of
notes of American decisions, the latter claim an UNI
divided title to those works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writer's as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbold, appear, they shall also be included;
and digests Of equity and law decisions--works
which have been studiously kept out of the Law
Library published at Philadclphia--shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
IP This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of l60 pages, printed on fine white paper, and
good new long primer type at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.

DIR. DYoTT,s ANTI-BILIoUs PILLS.

LIN. DIO1 4 AIN HllLC.
A ) a family medicine, mild and gentle purga-
IA tive, and purifier of the blood. The general
use of these celebrated pills throughout the United
States for these forty years past and the strong
concentrations they have acquired from all classes
OF our fellow-cltzens, places them in much more
elevated situation in public estimation, than any
other remedy which has heretofore been introduced
The following are among the many diseases for
which Dr. Dyotts celebrated pills are so deservedly
distinguished for curing. By their counteracting
properties in removing the bile from the stomach,
they prevent and the bilious fever; chills, or
ague and fever; spring and fall fevers; yellow fever;
bilious choic; pleurisy; dysentery worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach.
BY cleansing the bowels and stomach from all inn
purties, they restore the loss Of appetite, remove
Aatulency, cure the headache, habtua costiveness,
colds, coughs, asthma, epileptc fits, hypochondria,
BY general and copious use, they will be found
very beneficial in curing the rheumatism and govt,
lumbago or pains in the back.
All impurities in the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional all
ment, or from indiscreet intemperance.
These celebrated pills have been used to very
great advantage in curing the dyspepsia or indiges-
ton, bronchitis, liver complaint, DC.
They are an infallible medicine for female com
plants generally, and especially for removing those
distractions which are the source of their ailments
at certain periods; they possess the eminent advan-
uSc VFcr nlost otner purgatlvea, mat, Whlle they
operate gently they produce neither cosveness, de-
bility, or too great excitement.
Whenever there is predispostion to receive
disease from marsh efAuvia, or from too copious
use of ardent spirits, from vtated state Of the
bile, these pills will assuredly counterfeit it.
They are highly recommended to travellers by
sea or land, and may be made use of with safety
without change Of diet, and in situations where no
exercise can be used. They will be found particu-
arly valuable for preventing diseases incidental TO
hot climates; they deterge and cleanse vscd humors,
open distractions, and promote the secretion Of
good bile, operate as an easy cathartc, power
full diuretic, and diaphoretic.
DIR. Dyott, under the strong conviction Of the
power of his pills to relieve the afflicted, recon-
mends the of them to those who are in health
as well the afflicted at leace fortnight, du-
ring the spring and summer months, in which he
feels assured those who attend to his advice will
find the benefit they seek.
