Il Soan's medicines are getting more popu-
lar than ever. Whether it is owing to his hon
orable way of doing business, or whether it is
owing to the knowledge displayed in the com
pounding of the medicines, one thing is certain,
his credit is above reproach, and his medicines
are without rival for the purposes for which
they are recommended

| Dr Mr.. BARRON, the editor of the Waukesha
| Democrat, who went 70 Baltimore to attend the
Convention, writes the following, home to his
paper:
The Baltimore Convention is now the princi
pal topic of conversation and discussion through
out the Union. Another week, and we sha

are and whose president approved" them, ALI

dishing his threatening lash over all.
The Democrat, of Milwaukee, in speaking Of
the Baltimore Platform, speaks eloquently and
truthfully in this wise:
The Fugitive Slave Law, passed by bare
majority, under the gag, and without debate, and
under VIGOROUSLY corrupt influences, those north
ern members who voted for it, in defiance
of their constituents, being afterwards rewarded
by lucrative appointments-ths law, bloody as
the code Of Draco inhuman and despotic rs any
tyrant ever decreed, disgrace to civilization,
and the shame of this republic, is declared to be
henceforth interchangeable as the laws of the Modes
and Persans. And the Democratic party-the

"WHo Is Mn. PIERCE ?''-The Cleveland
True Democrat knows Mr. Pierce. Here ia
what he thinks Of him
"He has been noted for many years as lead
er of the Democracy of New Hampsbire He
is claimed to be man Of fine talents. and res
Pectable character; he has figured at home as a
lawyer. and been known abroad as a u. s, Sen
ator, and General in the Mexican War. No
man could have been, or cond be, more STRONGLY
partizan, and no 2artizan, North or South. has
been, or IS, more subservient to SLAVERY" Mr.
Pierce made the first onset against Hale, when he
dared first to say there was Constitution. and a
North under it, and sought to ostracise him there
tor. tie has been, from the days of the cath
erion Gag consistent in opposing the right of
petition, every movement to free the District
OF Columbia from Slavery, and any attempt to
sever the General Government from all connec-
ton with that curse. He was the stauncest de-
lender OF the Compromise and the Fugitive Law,
when those measures were proposed, and is
pledged, not only to uphold them 'Jv all the
means in has porcer," but to veto any biz which
shall change their purpose, or impair their effec-
tive operation. This we believe to be true
of the Democratic candidate.

FRENCH, of kenosha, an imaginative gentleman
who says that the Notwithstanding the free
