tablishing some indefnable and abstract philoso-
ply, which never can be put in practice, and only
serves to unsettle the minds Of men and produce
insanity in society.
According to all appearances these different
movements spring from similar feelings in the OPP
posite parties, and may probably hereafter unite or
coaesce, so as TO produce dangerous influence,
even upon the congressional elections which will
take place next autumn. The old abolinonists,
composed of the original Biney men, strengthened
by the assimilated elements of barnburners and
FourieriteClay men, may, In less than two or three
years, have majority In Congress at their COM
mand, when they would bring forward measures
far beyond the mere naked extension of slavery in
California, and would be hurried from point to
point, without the possibility of coming TO stop
ping place. When this period shall arrive--it may
be in two or four, or in six or eight years to come
there will then be danger TO the Union, danger
to this glorious confederacy. and danger to the
cause of liberty throughout the whole world.
In such position Of affairs, with such prospects
before us, what would be the best policy for men
of all parties to pursue who friends to the Con-
stltution as it isl What would be the wisest
TO adopt, by all those, Of every party, who
are friends and supporters of the Union
We are persuaded that, in such crisis, General
Taylor would occupy the same ground, would
WELD the same force, and display the same energy,
in support OF the Union, which Gen. Washington
did in his day, and which General Jackson did
during the notification crisis In South Carolina.
The private and public character of General Tay-
lor proves him to be man full OF energy, irmness,
promptitude, GOODNESS, prudence, and the most en-
larged and comprehensive views In such crisis
preparing for the country, as that which we have
developed, General Taylor seems to be the only
man who possesses the nerve, the resolution, and
the popularity, which would enable him to carry
the country through such perils with honor and
security. il is time, therefore, for all moderate
men, of all partles without refereacs to the rdcu-
lous distinctions Of names and factions, to unite
together and consider what would be the best DO.

There have been thousands doubtless, who suf-
fered disease to destroy their happiness here and
even life itself, rather than resort to the use of
what are generally styled Patent Medicines"
no matter what heath-ilnproving virtues these
may have possessed. Accustomed to hear cry
against these remedies, they choose 20 deprive
themselves of the happy benefits they might have
received from them, and voinly endeavor to bolster
mp their falling condition by the ordinary pations
of the day, which were less efficient, though per-
haps more fashionable and costly. But we rejoice
that these hurtful preudces are fast losing their

SALT FORK BARBECUE.

The barbecue at Salt Fork, Thursday,
was well attended. ~. 4'..'
Gen. Clark and Mr.. Jackson addressed
the people at some length on State affairs
The General reviewed the course of the
democratic party, in their government of
the State; they had long had exclusive con.
troll, and had done nothing to advance the
interests OF the people; the State had been
largely involved in debt; the taxes of the
people had been largely increased special
taxes of an oncrous nature had been i'm
posed; the money donated to the State for
internal improvement purposes had been
squandered; equality in representation had
been destroyed; territory of the frontier
voted down freemen of the interior, &C.
All these topics were touched upon, and
ably discussed by Gen. Clark.
Mr.. Jackson replied. Those who have
been in the habit of hearing Mr.. Jackson
on the stump heretofore, rantng at feder.
alis,s, the tariff, and the poor old United
States Bank, would hardly recognise the
bold and wreckless declaimcr, in the apol.
ogiscr and beggar, when defending his
own party on State policy, where they
have had exclusive control so long. His
excuses and apologies, together with the
powerful efforts of influential friends may
induce the people to try him again: but we
shall have TO see it to believe it. No man
who is opposed 10 a State debt without
something TO show for it, oppressive and
unequal taxes, and unequal representation,
and in favor of improving our State, can
consistently supper, him.
Judge Dysart and Mr.. Smith were pre-.
present, and briefly addressed the people.
There was public gathering yesterday,
above the steam mil-and to-day the can
didates will be at New Franklin.

THE "ODIOUS FEATURE"

The Democrat" speaking of the tax
law of the last session which taxes the
Preacher, the Overseer, the Clerk, the
Teacher, the Journeyman Mechanic, &C.,
one per cent of their salaries, says:-
awe understand that Mr.. Jackson opposed
the very "odious feature" Of the bill. which
originated in the Senate, and Of which the Times
speaks, as long he could
Where did you understand this from!
Mr.. Jackson never opened his mouth on
the subject of the "odious FEATURE" except
to vote for its passage! How did he op-
pose it! Did he move to strike it OUT
Did he make any motion on the subject!
Show it, if he did. If he did not, how
then did he oppose it as long as he could?

CHILLs AND FEvER.- Wrighfs Indian Vegetable
Pills are one of the BEST if not the very best med.
cines in the world, for the cure of intermittent
fever, because they excel all others in Kidding the
body of those morbid humors which are the cause,
not only of all kinds Of fever, but of every maady
incident to man. Four or five of said Indian
Vegetable Pills, taken every night going to bed,
will in short time make perfect cure of the most
obstinate cases of chills and fever at the same
time the digestive organs will be restored to a
healthy tone, and the blood so completely purified
that fever and ague, or disease in any form, will
be absolutely impossible.

HORRIBLE MISTAKES!
Are sometimes made by confounding ,one medi-
cine with another; and administering the wrong
article. Equally horrible are those mistakes
which are made in supposng that all Pills are
alike, and that therefore, it is Indifferent which
are taken, and il one kind is bad all are bad to-
gether. This is a very great mistake. There is
as much difference between Wright's Indian Veg
etabe Pills and other articles, as between mid
night and MONDAY! We do not wish any one to
take our word merely for this statement. Let any
one, having taken other medicines, try this
Nothing more will be necessary.
Many persons have been led away by COATING
OF SUGAR, as if they anticipated that it would
| remove the nausea Of the Medicine But they
are generally mistaken. Without the SUGAR
those articles would have nothing to recommend
them, and would not be sold single day. But
with the sugar, and by giving the article name
SIMILAR to Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills, they
gain temporary notoriety. Wolves they are in
sleeps clothing, of whom the public should steer
sufficiently clear.
Let it be remembered that WRlGHT'S INDIAN
VEGETABLE PILLS are prepared with special
reference 10 the laws governing the human body.

Ye Wings who won for Harrison,
And ye who braveIy fought for Clay,
Arrange your forces and unite
For him who conquered Monterey

You'll win the fight for Rough and Ready"
See where, on Palo Altos heights,
The Hero brave undaunted stands,
For good, our countrys Stars and Stripes.

He won that fied-his arm was steady.
Twill always be-with Trough and Ready"
And when. beneath the towering palms,
Fearless again he pitched his tent,
The Mexicans with flashing arms
Came--all their thoughts on vengeance bent
Again he won-his arm was steady
That all should yield to Trough and Ready"
And on that scene Of bright "look OUT
With farest prospect toward the sea,
Who caused to ascend that thrilling shout,
But the bravest brave, old Zachary
His heart was 6rm-his arm was steady,
Nothing could daunt old Trough and Ready"
Then trust him with the Ship Of Stale,
He'll ever have its good in view;
And though dark perils may await.
Will bring it safa to harbor too.

and ell the parious forms Of
p,,,,oUs DISEASES.

BILIOUS DISEASES.
This valuable medic ne is undoubtedly the safest,
sures and best remedy DISCOVERED FOR the cure
of the above named diseases. 1t not only brea is
the chill, but removes the cause from which the
disease originates. Its operation is both general
and special.
While it acts generally upon the whole system,
as most powerful Alternative, purifying the fluids
freeing the solids from all morbid secreions, and
reinvigorating and bringing up all the vital ener.
gies to standard of permanent health; it at the
same time exerts specific influence upon the liver,
digestive organs and Emphatic ard glandular sys-
TENS; exciting them to healthful activity, reno
wing all morbid matter, equaling the circulation,
restoring their proper and necessary secretions,
thus accomplishing complete renovation from
disease and restoration to sound and permanent
health.
1t will be readily conceded by every intelligent
mind that Tonic SYRUP composed of the most
valuable ingredients. carefully selected from the
Vegetable Kingdom, must possess far more potent
properties for the complete eradication of the diSea
SEES for which it is especially prepared, than can
possibly be compounded with the limited quantity
usually administered in the form of Pills.
Those who are suffering with the prostrating
AGUE and FEVERS common to the west and
south-those whose constitutions have become en-
feebed by the use of mercury, quiEine, or other
violent remedies--shOud resort at once to the use
of this VALUABLE MEDICINE.
1t has cured and will cure the most obstinate
Travelling with the circulation, it pours its heal
ing current through every vein and artery of the
human body. The whole animal economy is made
to undergo thorough radical change. Even the
mind partukes of the healthfu process and life,
that before appeared one dreary waste, begins
again to seem worth possessing.
Pamphlets respecting this valuable medicine,
can be obtained of the agents gratis.
