THE ELECTION.

We would most earnestly urge our Wing friends
throughout the State to come out in full force on
Thursday next. 1t is highly important to the in
terests of our party, and of the country, that the
next Legislature should be Wing. The Wings
of the country can make it so, if they will Aside
from any consideration of the fact that United
States Senator's to be elected, and the Importance
of rebuking the proscriptive acts of the late Le-
gslature, it behoves the Wings of Virginia, at this
election, to express by their votes their approval
of the course of our Wing President. Is there
wanting any proof of the noble patriotism and
consummate prudence with which he is now
guiding the helm of our national affairs We shall
find it abundantly in the voluntary and repeated
confessions of the Washington Union, that he is
lending all his influence to the accomplishment
of a just and satisfactory settlement of the Sec
tional controversy The Wings of Virginia voted
for Gen. Taylor, predicting that he would act this
part. Let them now make record of their salts
faction that he is honorably redeeming all their
pledges

BRANDRETHS PILLS, AND THE BODY'S
WASTE.-To those candid men who honestly doubt

BRANDRETHS PILLS, AND THE BODY'S
WASTE.--To those candid men who honestly doubt
the truth ofhe Brandrethian SYSTEM we would entreat
them to ponder well upon the following facts:
The food taken into the stomach is converted into
blood which vital stream flowing through all the rami-
cations Of the SYSTEM not only mparts strength and
continuates e but actually creates forms and builds up
each and every part the animal machine lit
blood therefore pure and healthy, the body which
formed and supported by the blood cannot be diseased
But there be any part OF the body any Affection such
as bile ulcer, bruise, the blood circulating
through that part takes up impure matters from the local
affection and carries it into the general system This
is the cause often of sudden death to persons Of full hab
it, afflicted with bes, and who use no medicine
the matter gets into the circulating system and chokes
up the fine blood vessels which supply the brain with
vitality, and life ceases il bereft by lightning. Now
this be remediedthe Brandreth Pills will, il used
at these times take all impure matters from the cir
cuation and the general health, at the same ume
they are curing the local affections.
Oh how important it is to find that this subject
be well comprehended it would save many from teol-
Gus times of sickness, and often their services
to their friends when otherwise the tomb would nave
its victim. w

LETTER FROM PROFESSOR WEBSTER'S
DAUGHTER
The following communication from daughter of
Professor Webster, in reply letter addressed her.
has been handed us by the gentleman to whom it
directed
DANIEL MARSH, Eso.-SIR: |. this morning, received
the very kind letter you addressed me- and which
hasten to answer, to thank you the Of my
the sisters, and myself for the sentiments you
entertain respecting my beloved father You believe
him innocent and you believe what is true, he is the VIC
tim Of circumstances; deeply injured mau-that he is
innocent, we his family know, and nothing on earth
will ever take from this conviction. We have never
from the momenthe was snatched from his home, had
shadow OF doubt on our minds and whatever the world
may say do, we shall ever have that feeling to sup
port u.s. The knowledge of his innocence supported my
father during the hours of suffering in the Court room
that it is that gives him and camness now, amidst
the many of sorrow that have overwhelmed u.s.
Far different from what we anticipated was the result
of the trial for we had been assured throughout the win
that our father could not but be restored to u.s. and
that the trial he must receive Justice for the many
wrongs that had been heaped upon him. But justice
fled from the court room and prejudice took her place.
Yet hope still fingers with us, for we trust that the
public voice will be raised against the gross injustice that
has been committed, and will not allow country to
bear such q stigma on her name, such an everlasting
STAIN as will be that of the sacrifice OF one truly nno
cent as my father. And if word from us, sir can
add feathers weight to the efforts that being made;
Oh may we give you the deep assurance OF our hearts,
that feel grateful for the interest that you express and
feel and for what you are doing in our behalf. May
God in hsinfnte mercy, look down upon you and bless
the efforts that are being made and il his will to
bring the truth to light and to allow this awful mystery
to be explained, may he enghten the minds Of those
into whose hands the case will pass.
Unjust again thank you, sir for the kind feeling you
express towards my dear father Nothing that the
world can do now gives greater consolation than the
knowledge that others believe him innocent. Sympa-
thy has flowed abundantly from many hearts towards
u.s. his family but how much priced by us is that
sympathy when expressed for him. That our beloved
father ay be restored u.s. the erven prayer of our
hearts, and we wait trembngly the hope that those
who to decide in this may the terrible
injustice that has been committed, and has nictedso
much suffering on so many

PASSPORTS FOR THE ISTHMI1s

There having been much inquiry among the travellers
bound to California, the necessity of obtaining
passports from the New Grenadian Consul application
was made by Livingston, Wells Il Co., to the Depart

lowing letter has been received in reply
DEPARTMENT OF STATE !
WASHINGTON, 18th April 1850
To Messrs. Livingston, Wells 4 Co., Ne,o York:
Gentlemen: have to acknowledge the receipt of
your letter OF the 18th inst, nqung it is necessary
Tor citizens of the United States, embarkng at New
York for the purpose of crossing the Ishmus of Pana
ma to obtain passports from the Consul OF New Gren-
ada at that CITY, In reply have to inform YOU that the
treaty between the United States and New Grenada of
the 18th Of December, 1896 places our citizens
ing to and residing in that country, upon footing OF
equality with New Grenadan citizens but requires from
them obedience to the laws of that republic II, there
fore, the laws of New Grenada make it imperative
upon their citizens abroad, who may be about to return
home, to obtain passports from the New Grenadan Con-
sui at the port where they may embark citizens of the
United States cannot, according to the terms of the
treaty, claim an exemption from this. The 35th article
OF the instrument however, which gives the privilege
OF passing across the lthmus OF Panama upon the same
the obligation TO guaranty to that Republic the neutral
ity of the 1sthmus
This obligation would seem to be sufficient equiva
lent tor perfect freedom OF transit for citizens
the route referred to and it quite probable that it
was the impression of those who had an agency in the
treaty on behalf OF this government that it secured that
privilege this Department will instruct the Charge At
fairs OF the u States at Bogota to demonstrate against the
requson of passports for such of our citizens as may
embark for the Isthmus and endeavor to obtain the
removal OF any restriction upon the communication by
that route between ports the Atlantic and those
on the Pacific.
am, gentlemen, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
