- The following is one Of the Resolu-
tions adopted at the Democratic Convention
held at Madison on the 9Th -
Resolved, That free and Unrestricted tyadc
IS regarded by US cardinal doctrine Of the
Democratic party, and that ,ce demand is a.
doption by the General Government, as soon
practicable.
We ask the miners cf Wisconsin to look
at the effects Of this cardinal doctrine cf1he
Democratic party" upon TIER business. 1t
IS but short time since the article Of Lead
bore good price in the eastern market, and
consequently, Mineral was worth here s23 per
thousand. The duty on foreign Lead is, -un-
der the present democratic tariff, only 20 per
cent and we see that as soon as the price,
advances sufficiently to enable our western
miners 10 pursue their business with pros
pect of making fair living at raising miner
al, large quantities of Foreign Lead arrive in
our eastern cities, and sells at prices ruinous
TO the interests Of the American Miner. Such
is the reason why Mineral has so suddenly
fallen in this market. Had the duty of three
cents per pound, imposed upon Lead by the
Wing Tariff of -, still remained in force,
the price Of Mineral in this region, must have
advanced, rather than deprecated. But such
are some of the fruits of the cardinal dec
trines of the Democratic party!''
The following is another Resolution ADOPT
cd at the same Convention
Resolved, That the only fair and equal
mode Of raising the revenue. necessary to De
fray the expenses Of the Government, Is :y
direct turati0n.
Tax payers Of old Iowa, are you wilIing.to
subscribe to this Free Trade, and Direct Tax
alton doctrines Ifso. do not complain, when
the tax-gatherer knocks at your door for yoaIr
mite to support the government, that Mineial
Is SO low that you can hardly raise enough 40
support your family. If not, we say 90 10
the polls in November and cast your votes for
men who hold to the doctrine Of a suticieat
protection to home industry to enable the 4
merican Laborer to compete with the Pauper
Labor Of other nations, that protection which
II is the duty of every Government to exter.d
70 her own citizens, against the ruinous infa-
ence Of hostile foreign policy.

THE ORIGIN OF THE LONDON vEGETA-
BE BILIOUS PILLS

These pills were invented by the Royal College
Of Pharmacy in London. They have been used
in the British Hospitals for the last fifteen years
and by the Army aud Navy Surgeons in the Brit
ish East Indies. 1t IS several years since the
proprietors had their history from a member of
the above named College, and from whom 5Ley
obtained a recipe TO prepare them. For the truth
of this we pledge our honor. During the several
years we have used these pills in our practice we
have fonnd them TO be all that we recommend
and many time have grateful patients who have
experienced their efficacy, urged US to throw
supply of them before the people of this country,
which we have now concluded to do, though III
many places they have long been partially intro
duced.
