PROGRESS of Whig Measures.

In our paper OF to-day Will be found the adj
v%ertisement for the. election on the 18th April
next, for Convention or mo ConYention."-
This is the first great Wing measure of the
present year, that the Constitution may be
changed, so that other important measures for
the benefit of the people may be adopted. 1t
is the first scene in the great political panora-
ma of the next eight or nine months, and who
can doubt the appreciation which awaits it,
The people of the State, through their repre-
scntatives in the Legislature, have expressed
too decidedly to be mistaken their almost una
nimous desire for a change of existing statutes,
and the Convention, which will be a trium-
plant measure in itself, but opens the gate for
the adoption of still greater ones-for healthy
and stable laws to strengthen energy. encour-
age industry, and give to mind full scope for
progression in this aye Of extraordinary intel
lectual developements and ~attainments.. I'm
controvertably, the present is equally the Wing
hegira of Louisiana and the eraG great re-
forms and substantial measures, to aid and
nerve the spirit of enterprise and industry
throughout the land.
After the election which authorizes the Con-
yention to change the Constitution, for there is
no doubt of the result, the minds of the peo-
pie must next be turned towards selecting pro-
per candidates to represent them in that body.
In this parish, and on the part of the Wings,
as a primary and all-iinportant consideration,
which should be impressed upon the minds of
all, perfect unanimity of feeling, free from pre-
JUDGE and Jealousy, should prevail in every
section. 1t is not to be supposed possible that
every individual or community can be fully sat-
isied in the choice OF candidates. We should
desire and struggle TO obtain in public meeting,
by fair and legitimate means, the ablest men
Of our party, and then to struggle with united
zeal for their elections We predict a signal
of our ticket in June apathy and re-
grets. from no cause whatever, will have an ex-
istence in our ranks, we trust, as was the case
at the last election and consequently, being
and Jealous for the success of each indi-
vidual upon our ticket, evidence to the State
BY efecting our entire delegation from the Pa
and Senatorial District, that Iberville is
not in the rear of any of her sister Parishes
IN demanding the abolition of laws which have
:ramped our energies in past years, and that
she takes a bold and decided stand knowing |
heir worth and legitimacy, for the institution,
and perlnanencyo of Wing measures.

GRAEFENBERG CIIILDREN'S PANACEA.

most strange and Incredible fact meets us at
the very threshold of our remarks on this valuable
medicine. II is this: that medicine prepared
adapted to the various diseases of children and
youth has ever been offered to the public, while at
he same lime it is eStab lishcd by the most accu-
rate tables OF mortality thai half Of the human
family die before reaching the age eff five years.
We should suppose that to this great class of hui
man sufferers-this onc-half Of the race-the most
anxious and earnest attention would have been
gwen; that medical skill would have been tlsked
to its utmost capacity to find out a med icinc TO
which mothers and muses. might resort under tho
constantly recurring necessities which present
themselves in this connection. The world is lit
orally crowded with nc defines for adults, but TO
the sutferings of children no one has seemed te
turn proper attention. No one has regarded thci,
condition, No one has seemed to think it possible
that the ravages of disease and death among them
might be stayed. 1t is true that there arc numer-
Gus VcrmiIuges and CorIialS of some value, but
each of these are confined exclusively to one or
two forms Of disease. The Graefenbere Chldrcn's
Panacea is the only medicine extant to ethe
hemisphere that is atall worthy of icing calcd
ChlldIen's Medicine; Or that supplies the great
want alluded to.
