DALLEY's MEDICAL PAIN ExTRAcToR.-An inven-

should be made known to the universe. Its cures in
many cases are absolutely beyond belief For burns
scads sores swelings pains in the limbs ofall kinds
cuts, wounds and in every disease of the body where
can be applied externally, it fails to cure
singular case came under our own observation. A
friend IN playing with 81 arp steel pen, run il into
the palm OF his hand so that il came out at the back
and had TO be extracted that way. The poisonous
nature OF the ink in the wound as well as the nstr-
ment itself, caused the hand TO swell dreadfully-
Dalley's Fam Extractor was applied, and the next
day the swelling had entirely gone down, the pain
had lett and the wound was cured in few DAYS.

The Alexandria Gazette appears to have been good
deal disturbed by the articles which have recently
published in respect TO General Tayors letters and his
nomination by the wing party. The following paragraph
IS It's last giving out upon the subject
'The Union may be considered the most ultra
ntiTayor newspaper in the country. II speaks Gen
Taylors Admitted political incapacity' Now if the
Union really does General Taylor the whig
canddaewhich fact IS very evident usit had bette
let him alone Any body particularly obnoxious to the
administration, is very likely be particularly acceptable
to the wings. There great deal OF human nature in
parties well as in mem"
II the Gazette regards our remarks as to the Generals
political ncapaciy" too strongly phrased, it
at least admit that spoke upon good authority, for
we only echoed the very candid avowals which the
General has made himself through the whole series OF
his letters He has taken care to tell the country that
his whole life has been spent in military servce-tha
he has never voted-tha he has never studied political
questons-and that he is politician In the ordinary
of these assertions submit to the Gazette that
they do make out of admitted political ncapac
ty"
The Gazette assumes that we 'sdo not want General
TAYLOR to be the whg candidate" The Gazette speaks
without book this point We do not remember to
have given any such intimaion. On the contrary, we
have rendered some reasons for thinking that General
Taylor would hardly succeed in polling the full vote of
the WING party. Be this may be, however, we en-
terrain no doubt that the democracy, true to itself
in the approaching canvass, will be able to defeat their
opponents, under whatever leader the wings, party
may take the field
Nor is the Gazette any right in supposing Gen
Taylor to be more particularly obnoxious" TO us than
any of the distinguished wings who have been presented
candidates by different sections of that party Should
Mr.. Clay be the nominee of the Wing Convention we
can the Gazette that shall consider him quite
as obnoxious shall consider Gen Taylor under
the circumstances As to letting Gen. Taylor alone,
because he is spoken OF candidate before the Wing
Convention and because he has written some letters
looking to that result do what idea of policy
should lead to adopt such Neither his ex-
pressons his suppressons of opinions upon public
affairs, are in our Judgment any the less suitable sub
lects of comment in columns this account

CLAIMS AGAINST THE UNITED STArEs-We have received

Of the United States from the Committee on
Claims, by Mr.. Rockwell of Connecticut. 1t familiar

government have been urged unsuccessfy year after
year, by individuals who could ill afford their
dues. The Committee OF Claims now report bill to pro.

against the United States by individuals and provide
for speedy settlement of them than the existing
laws admit. AS the matter staads, claimants whose
rights have been properly authenticated by the proper de-
