CONCERT OF PRorEssoR DERwoRT, HIS TIKI

CONCERT OF PRoFEssoR DERwoRT, THREE
DAUGHTERS, AND SoN.-We with pleasure recon-
mend TO readers the concerts of this talented
family, whose superiority over those in the
habit of witnessing has been acknowledged by the
principal papers of New York, Boston, and Phila-
delphia, where their concerts have been unver-
sally admired by the first artists and amateurs. In
their playing, their fine instruments to be
moved but by one hand; and although so young,
Professor Derwort's daughters show the highest
cultivation Of voices of sweetness and beauty
of tone. Little William, although only six years
of age, the personihcation of the soul of mu-
sic, and plays solos on the vioonceo, and takes his
part in concerted pieces with all the skill of old
performer. His first concert will take place on
the Sd Of January, 1850, at Carusi's Saloon.

missed no sectional OF local predictions.
We have abandoned nothing to men
which has been due to the country. Con-
iding in the purity and patriotism of the
man whom the people have made their
PRESIDENT, we have volunteered in the
support of his Administration. Though
from the first day that he entered upon his
high station he has been pursued with all
the rage of faction and the madness Of
disappointed ambition, the censure of the
vile passes from his undimmed reputation
as breath vanishes from the steel radiant
with the victories of Palo Alto and Buena
Vista. To his hands their highest desti-
MES have been committed, and we believe
wisely and fortunately committed, by a
great and growing nation. 1t will con-
tinue to be our pride and pleasure to sus-
tain the generous, prudent, and liberal
policy which he has avowed, for the main
tenance of peace; for the cultivation Of
the arts of peace; for the promotion Of the
great interests of labor; for increasing the
facilities and improving the channels Of
commerce, and for reinstating the SOW
ereignty in the hands of the AMERICAN
People, where our Constitution contem-
plates that it shall reside forever. In this
great work he will be sustained by the
voice of the people; and though faction
or fanaticism may for while drown it
in their clamors, that voice will proclaim
that the man of the UNION and the man of
the CONSTITUTION is the MAN or THE
People.

which is pronounced by all who have seen il to be
exceedingly pure. II was ploughcd up in field Of

pieces were found, ono OF which weighed some six
pounds. On the same hill, several Indian tools
made Of flint rock, were also found. one Of which
was left at this office with the ore The hill has not

FIFTY THOUSAND PERSONS

nIE annually in England of CONSUMPTION.
IL In the New England States, the proportion is
one in four or five. In Boston, probably, one in
four In the city of New York, sixty seven died in
two weeks in December Of this disease. Ii is less
prevalent in the more northern ATTITUDES, as Rus
STA, Canada, and among the Alps of Switzerland,
where the winters are long and severe, and there
are fewer sudden changes.
No theory be more welcome TO the human
mind than the one which establishes on good
grounds the hope for prolonged existence; If the
allegations of those who at least entitled to
racity may be believed, there is preventative
and a remedy.
The great Author of Nature has provided Us with
a remedy for Consumption, and the diseases lead
ing thereto which are so fearfully common in our
country, Has He left US TO find relief from that
fatal scourge by ransacking other lands No,
the best, Natures own Remedy, is at our hand
The Wild Cherry and the Pine furnish us with
cure, where cure is possible.
One OF the most important discoveries of the age,
in ameorating the condition of this large class Of
suffering humanity, is
DR. wISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY,
which has been before the public some ten years

The following is from the San Antonio Western
Tszan, Of the LIST instant:
awe are informed by Mr.. Riley, who lives near
Camp Lincoln, ON the Seco, that about O'Clock, on
the morning of the 22d ult, OF the scntries at
that camp fired nj a man who seemed 10 be dressed
American, and was trespassing within the
lines; the guard turned out Immediately and found
that rope had been cut, 10 which three horses
were attached. About an hour after, one Of the
dragons the farricr and blacksmith Of the station)
was shot through the heart with ball, at the dis
lance OF only few rods from his tent and within
the lines. The whole camp was then aroused, but
II being dark nothing could be done. In the morn
ing il was found that the dragon had been shot
from under cover of a small bush near by; and the
guide OF the camp found, at the distance Of mile,
the track OF eight men, supposed TO be Indians;
these were Immediately followed by an officer ard
ten men, two days journey 10 the mountains, when
the tracks Of all the eight men indicated that they
had scattered in different directions; the party
then returned, being able 10 trace them further
took place, some traveller near the camp lost two
horses, and four horses we're taken from Dhanis, a
small village two miles distant.
"a gentleman, who left Eagle Pass on the oath
ult. reports that numerous Indian signs had been
seen in that ncghborhood party which had been
out some ten days before in search Of stray cattle
had been run in by the Indians. II is said that
trails crossing the road between the Nucces and the
Rio Grandc indicate large numbers as having gone
down the eountry-some suppose as many as i've

on the lower Rio Grande For some time back, the
Mexican territory beyond Eagle Pass has been

killed about the goth ult., near San Fernando. The
Mexicans, in pursuing one party Of Indians, killed
two Of their number and found upon them some

Mas. FARSHAM.-Tbis lady, who last summer
was recruiting females to accompany her to Cali
fornia, has experienced very harsh treatment by
for the Ell Dorado. Being obliged to GO ashore at
Valparaiso to procure passport for servant, the
captain sailed without her, leaving her without
baggage or money, and carrying with him her two
young children, the eldest not seven years of age.
The people of Valparaiso very promptly furnished
her with money to prosecute her journey.

House. or REPRESENTATIVES,, !
December 81, 1919.

GESTLEMES: A resolution was offered in the
House Of Representatives this morning. instructing
the Committee on the Territories to report forth
with bill bills establishing territorial govern
ncnt governments in that part Of the recently
acquired territory of the United States lying east
Of the Sierra Nevada, and prohibiting slavery
therein. Upon a motion being made TO lay that
resolution on the table, voted in the affirmative.
Not having had an opportunity to explain the
grounds Of my vote in the House, desire to do 50,
with great brevity, through the columns Of your
paper.
The resolution in question embraces the region
known as New Mexico. As ! understand our
treaty Of peace with Mexico, the inhabitants Of
that country have now strong equitable claim TO
be admitted into the Union State. In the abb
scncc Of any reliable information whether they de-
sire be so admitted not, shall not vote TO i'm
pose upon them territorial government, contrary
perhaps TO their will, and, II SO, in violation of the
spirit of solemn treaty. Their wishes at least
entitled 10 a respectful and deliberate oonsidera-
tion and, for myself, il they shall indicate pre-
ference 10 come into the Union Immediately in the
same manner as California, ] am prepared 10 ac-
cede to their request will say further, that Il IL
my wish and hope. az IL seems 70 me II ought 20 be
of every lover of his country, that this latter
may be adopted by them; and shalla consequent
ly, oppose any prcciptatc action by which such
course may be frustrated
am aware that vote against laying PROPOSE
ton the table IL not equivalent 10 affirmative
vote in it. favor; aud that the difference probably
between myself and many Of my political friends
is ono rather Of form than Of substance. To avoid
misconception, however, this explanation is not,
perhaps, wholly unnecessary.
! need scarcely add, that II territorial govern
ment shall hereafter appear To be necessary and
proper, am, as always have been, in favor Of the
insertion, in every bill for that purpose Of clause
prohibiting slavery.
