Rev. Mr. Miner, of Syracuse was the chief
speaker; and he succeeded, in very forcibe
manner, in demonstrating the superlatiye wick
edness of the law; showing that it's attempted
execution in our midst had plunged the com
munity into a state of profound agitation that
it strikes down every right that is dear to
man; and being full Of unmingled and unmiti.

to obey it. but rather to resist it by all peace.

Mr.. IA. b. MAssER, Sunbury Pa Dear Sir -
In some portions of the country where we had
advertised our Sarsapara, in lS4s, the Editors
of some of the papers have fit to take upon
themselves the responsibility of continuing the
same after the agreement expired, and in some
cases have had the presumption to send us a bill
for the amount. Now we have no objection to
have all the papers in the United States advertise
for us for years, if they are pleased to do so at
their own expense, but we cannot afford to pay
them unless they have our authority for the work.
We write to you for the purpose of informing the
Editors, through you, tfat they are at liberty to
advertise as long as they please, but we must not
be held responsible without our written authority.

THE KING OF DAHoMEY.-llis Dahoman
Majesty, King Gezo, says Lieut.. Forbes, is
about forty-eiGht years of age, good looking,
with nothing of the negro feature, his COM
plexon wanting several shades of being
black ; his appearance commanding, and his
countenance Intellectual, though stern in the
extreme. That he is proud there can be no
doubt for he treads the earth as if it were
honored by lis burden. Were it not for a
slight cast in his eye, he would be hand
some man. Contrasted with the gaudy attire
of his ministers, wives and cabooceers (of
every hue and laden with coral, gold, silver
and brass ornaments the king was plainly
dressed, in loose robe of yellow silk slashed
with satin stars and half moon, Mandingo
sandals, and IA Spanish hat trimmed with
gola lace the only ornament being small
gold chain Of European manulalure.
