nounces the confirmation by the Senate of
the nominations of Gideon J. Pillow and
John A. Quitman to be Majors General,
and of Caleb Cushing and Sterling Price 10

the Senate very recently, and the Intelli.
gencer remarks on the singularity of the
whole proceeding: .-t.. ....... .
What is curious in this matter is, that, under a
late General Order Of the President all these off.
GERS were to be out Of the serpics on the 20lh OF
the present month, and that the confirmation Of
these appointments. demanded Of the Senate at
this last hour. would seem 10 bs as unnecessary
now for the public service. as the Withholding OF
the nominations so long has been insulting to the
Senate, Their appointment now is simply crea,
ting additional officers Of the army in time OF
peace.

HIT HIM AGAIN.-The Boston Post re.
proaches the Dedham Democrat which now
opposes Lewis Cass, because ut is said,
that Cass had been its favorite for many
years, and it rejoiced at his selection" To
this the Democrat retorts:-
Every likely we have said So but we have an
ilustrous example Of change of mind in the
favorite Of the Post, Gen. Cass, who says in his
letter TO Mr., Nicholson on the 'Wilmol Proviso.'
81 am strongly impressed with the opinion that
great change has been going on in the public
mind upon this subject-in my o,on as yell as

SPEAKING AT GLASGOW.


We were present at the speakingin Glas.
gov, on Tuesday last. There was very
respectable number Of people out, who lis.
tened with marked attention 10 the speak.
ers
Gen. Clark spoke first and Mr.. Jackson
followed. The same subjects we're dis
cussed which have been before noticed in
our columns, and need not be recapitulated
at this late day. Both candidates spoke
longer than usual, and the only difference
we noticed was. that Mr.. Jackson brought
some old anecdotes 10 his relief, which he
tells with affected good humor, as being
the best arguments he can use for his course
heretofore. The sickly laugh they raised
was not sufficient TO draw the public mind
from his acts and votes, the injustice of
which, Gen. Clark so eloquen,ly and effec.
lively showed
After they had concluded, Judge Dysar,
addressed the people, and was followed by
Mr.. Smith. .....
Mr.. Smith alluded to the reports tina,
were in circulation in reference to him.
He was accused of being Wilmot Provi.
so man and an abolitionist; he denied both
and called for the proof that he had eve,
advocated either.
DR.. Vaughan read a statement, TO the eff
feet that from conversations with his
friends, Mr.. Smith had left the impression
on their minds, that he was in favor of the
Provso.
Mr.. Fallenstein, of Glasgow, one of the
persons alluded 10 by Dr.. Vaughan, stated
that from conversations with Mr.. Smith
he believed him to be in favor of the prin
cples of the Proviso.
DR.. Vaughan referred to Mr.. Robiou, to
show, that he, Robiou, had opposed Mr.
Smiths being the democratic candidate, il
consequence of his views on this subject
that he preferred Judge Rawlns to Mr.
Smith on this account. Mr.. r. was no.
present.
Mr.. Smith called upon friends with
whom he conversed on the subject of the
Proviso, who stated that in those converse
tions, he had not advocated its doctrines
but thought their agitation dangerous to
the Union.
1t was late when all this took place, and
there was much noise and confusion in the
crowd. There was one point very clear
ly established, and it was the only one we
felt any particular interest in, and that was,
that the Proviso charge against Mr.. Smith
did not originate scith the whigs.
As TO Mr.. Smiths views on that subject,
we have nothing TO say. He affirms that
he is not Provisoist. but is. as many
others, opposed to slavery, abstractly.--
We have never heard Mr.. Smith charged
with being an Abolitionist--we do not be.
lieve he is, ~~

The richest thing of the canvass is the
effort of Mr.. Smith to make the people be-

ty, long before Mr.. Smith left the land of

~A WORD TO WHIGS.--Bear
in mind the only way to insure victory is
to poll your entire strength. Let not a

and the wings cannot expect to succeed

RIVER IMPROVEMENTS.

The Democrat sustains Mr.. Green in his
vote against improving our Western rivers,
and calls upon the people to put their trust
in him. We would ask every man in the
land if his interests would not be advanced,
by improving the navigation of our riv-
ers, thus ensuring speed, safety, and cheap
ness, to all who travel or ship freight
Mr.. Green is opposed to the Government
taking any steps to produce these desirable
results. Gen. Wilson is in favor of bring.
ing them about. By voting for one you
vote against your own interes,s-by vo-
Ting for the other you vote to promote
your own interests, 10 lessen your own ex-
penses.

U Col. DoNIPHAN has returned to
the State. He made speech in ST. Louis
last week, and not only gave the locos a
sound drubbing for misrepresen,ing him
in political point of view, but also for
the manner in which they had managed the
affairs of the State. He spoke of Gen.
Taylor at considerable length, and with
much zeal and warmth; locofoco abuse and
objections to the old General were replied
to in a manner which called forth the
warmest applause.

the principles OF the "Wilmot Provso.'- DR..
Vaughan may have SO inferred from conversations
of mine, but be msconceived the purport OF my
remarks. ] occupy the strongest grounds agilnst
the provisa. do not believe'that Dr. Vaughan
has, or would wantonly misrepresent me. have
never imputed to him unworthy motives. In
common with many Of my fellow citizens, ! re-
gard slavery in the abstract, as an evil, and hav-
ing long entertained that opinion may have so eS
pressedmysel in conversation with Dr.. Vaughan;
but have ever believed that neither the Congress
Of the United Sales nor the citizens Of States in
which slavery does not exist have right TO inter
fere in the matter. II. w. SMITH.
As Mr.. Smith in the foregoing admissions does
me what conceive 10 be jusce, am willing TO
admit now, that he is an opponent OF the WllmoIl
Proviso to the extent he says he is above. i
never circulated any report tha, Mr.. Smith ever
went further in his advocacy Of that measure than
the mere general principles upon which it Yves
based. and dsclaim now as | have ever been

Hon. DAVID WILMor and his position are
frequent subjects of conversation, and the

that he will support Cass. An emphatic
contradiction is given to this by letter
from that gentleman himself, published in

the following sentences: ....

BIIANDRETTI'S PILLS.

BE INTERCHANGEABLE no foolish per-
sons be so prciudiced against this now truly Gel.
cbratcd medicine as to despse this adyice let
II be used Immediately on pain being fell no
matter where ii may be, whether in the head or
feet, whether it be in the neck or abdomen, whc-
ther arising from external or internal cause, use
the Brandroths Pills, and rely upon it. that the
pain will go, the body will be restored TO health
us soon as nature has received sufficient assis.
tance from their effect.
The quantity of impure humours discharged
from tho body by the action of the BandrcIh's
Pills, is replaced in the course of few hours
with new and pure blood, by the digestion of a
moderate meal, By purging the body with this
medicine the whole mass of blood becomes en-
tircly purified and rcgeneratod.
That blood is the life of the BODY, presume
is undisputed, therefore shall say that it being
The SEAT of LIFE, it must also be the scat of dis.
ease. If disease be in the blood, we should al-
slract the disease only, not the blood. 1t is the
impurities which must be removed by purgatiOn
to secure our health, in all states of the wealth
or, in all situations, and in all climates. The
blood, like a good spirit, is always trying to ben.
eft the body by its struggles to cXpcl impurities.
But II IS moi capable to effect its own publication
at all times; TO do this it must often have assis-
tancc. When the blood is loaded with impur-
tics, especially in this climate, the consequent
ccs may be fatal provided the blood is not rur-
fed at once, and this is sure to be effected if
Brandrolh's Pills are used.
