the following soliloquy in the mouth Of
the erratic "barnburner," John Van Blu

"Well, we are all in he'll Of a fix, to
be sure! The old gentleman is terribly
frightened at his position, and well he may
be-and he holds me responsible. The
truth is, am considered behind the age,
and in my efforts to raise him on the top
of the fence, so as to afford him full view
Of the political horizon, hang me ifhe did
mt tumble over the other side into the
ditch, and there he lies! He looks do
zen years older within month. Sinner
that ] am, to have ruined my old father in
his old age, when he was getting on so
well in deceiving the people into the be-
lief Of his political consistency and unam-
bilious hopes! Well, most sons spend
their fathers money my old gentleman,
knowing my propensities, guarded against
that evil, and allowed me to traffic on his
political reputation. which he considered
of less value. Confound these abolition
lists! We wanted their votes, not their
|alliance-and are at last on the platform,
like poor set Of devils, ready to be turn
led, off, and no reprieve! Then that did
niger, Fred Douglas, has the audicity to
puff me in this paper, and congratulate me
that am at his side in the good work.
The villain will invite himselfto dine with
me some day, and propose my marrying a
comedy wench, to test my sincerity in this
abolition movement! Here's fix! We
should have sold out to either party before
this, as there is such athing as getting far
in advance Of the starting post. If we
beat Cass, we shall have Taylor-and we
are then damned, like an ill-roasted egg,
on both sides! Well, sin for penny, in

Cut the cords! go the niggers! swim the
hedgehog! gallop the maggot! drive the
ponies and swallow the juleps! That's

voted to the promugatSI Of sound Democratic doc

of State and National policy. These Measures
though Iegitimately resting from never -chaDging,
immutabe prinCiples-Te believe should still be, as
they ever have been, PROGRESSIVE in their charac-
ter; having for their Ultimate object the equalization
both of the benefits andburthens Of government
We can conceive no mans more likely to hasten
the accomplishment d these grand objects, than
through vigorous su9ort of the enlightened, just
and liberal, Free Trade Hardmoney and other lead
ing measures of policyldvOcated by the great DEM
ocratic party. AS longs our party shall adhere to
and enforce these, andFinciples and measures SIM

dividual members of oluparty-brouglt out in con-
formity to its establisd customs, for stations of

principles and show opposition to carry out its
measures and conform L its established usages.
The vital importance t our party, especially at the
present crisis, of Straightforward, fearless and
efficient champion of itsause and exponent of its
principles at the seat of bate government, must we
are persuaded, be too VIZ understood and apprec-
ated, to require any thin more than bare auSion

ousy adopted and sucCeS fully carried into execu-
ton, for sustaining the nor of the country against
its enemies abroad, aidedan comforted by inglori-
Gus, lily disguised and Nitrous partizans at home
We believe that we sh1 not be disappointed in
our expectations that theavarm hearted Democracy
of Iowa win evincc INTERPRETATION of the consd-
erationS here presented, their efficient aid and
support.
While the above will y the leading objects for

Whiggery and Nativism.

The coalition between the Wings, and
that most detestable, ungenerous, and
meanest Of all parties, the Natives, is
now complete. The Wings threatened
to unite with them, when Mr.. Polk was
elected. They have proved faithful to
the promise. Whiggery and Nativism
are now one. Let the corrupt union fes-
ter till the self cure is effected. 1t can
not prosper long time. A union SO
corrup,-so unblushingly vile-must be
defeated speedily.
The New York Mirror, a Taylor paper,
says of the election in Pennsylvania
The Natives of Philadelphia-the spe-
cial object of the hatred of the Tribune
and its coadjutors-have molly aided in
this uiciory. The splendid majority OF
5000 for Johnston in the city and county
Of Pennsylvania, is mainly curing 10 The
much calumniated .Naiires, who also gave
MIR. Clay a similar majority in 1874"
The Pennsylvania, Democratic pa
per, says 1--WE cannot emit calling the at
tention Of the country to the humiliating
degradation Of the Wings, in purchasing
their majorities in Philadelphia city and
county at SO high price. They marched
up to the polls deliberately, and voted for
the Nativists with disgusting alacrity
which displayed their disregard of all
propriety, and their utter prostitution at
the feet of the basest faction that ever
polluted the ballot boxes. Never in the
history Of this country has more shame
less and more disgraceful exhibition been
witnessed by the people Of this country"

REMITTENT AND INTERMITTENT FE-
VERT.
THIS priceless remedy possesses acknow-
lodged medical properties, which command the
attention, patronage ard approval-not only Of
enlightened communities where it has been in
troduced--but Of many eminent Physicians, who
for years have prescribed it in their practice
1t is mild without being Intellectual ,and certain
in its effect without implying danger to the sys-
tenn. The great desideratum Of all remedial
Agents, is to obtain one that will eradicate dis
ease, and not supply its place with another.
This important end has been fully attained in he
preparation of Smiths Tonic Syrup or Vegeta-
be Febrifuge-the sanative properties Of which
have been subjected to the severest test in more
than
ONE MILLION OF CASES,
within the last eight years. During this space
Of time volumes of unsolicited testimonials have
been heaped upon the inventor Of this valuable
medicine, attestiDg TO its supreme control over
the Intermittent ard remittent forms Of disease
Unlike scores of Ephelneral and deleterous nos
trums which have ushered into being to dazzle
for the moment, 8. smiths Tonic Syrup has BY
intrinsic merit alone secured the most elevated
position in the confidence Of discriminating
public. II not only breaks the chill, but invig-
crates the whole system by affording new mate
rial for the b1ood--thus restoring the racked,
emaciated frame TO sound and primitive health
Nor has experience proved this remedy less
valuable in preventing an effect which the quiz

occurrence are also effectually guar ded against
