GA curious resolution appears in the proceed

another column: that endorsing the democracy of
Whitcomb and Bright, and also of Amos Lane the
chairman of said meeting and of Mr. John P. Dunn.
Now it seems to US that this endorsement of Whit
comb and Brights democracy is work of superero-
CATION They do not need it, and least of all in such
company. They are contaminated rather than bene-
fitted by such an association We suspect the reso-
luton was permitted to pass similar resolutions
often do, because of the dislike naturally felt by
all oppose them in the presence of those in
terested We confess that dislike, under existing
circumstances, to say any thing the subject; nor
should do So we not impelled to do 1t by the
request that the resolution should be published in the
State Sentinel Taking it for granted that the reso-
luton evinced the real opinion of the meeting, we
admit the right freely to express it. We have right
to our opinion also, and it is not in with
that expressed by the resolution in question.

an effort in the short space of six or seven years,
deceive the credulous and unthinking, by putting
up Nostrums of various kinds by various Indiyldu-

much of the name of the original preparation as
will screen them from the lash of the law, and
