Democrats,

The following is in time and place, and
we hope Democrats will take heed and
faulter not. Democrats be united, do not
let your opponents, who want to mix and
amalgamate for the purpose of gaining the
spoils, come in and throw fire brand in
your rank. AS the Ohio Patriot says,
Stand to your integrity, your party and
your principles. Let no Democrat be lur-
ed from his old associations and from the
beaten path of duty by the humbugs,
chicanery and devices of the enemies ofthe
Democratic party. The gallant Democra-
cy of old Columbiana have earned we'll
deserved reputation throughout the State
by their faithfulness and answering de-
yotion to their party and principles. Let
them not suffer that reputation to be sui
liednow wher their services are mostneed-
ed. Turn a deaf ear to the brazen false
hoods and silly humbugs of the prowling
mountebanks ofFederal Whiggery. When
Wings are SO anxious for any measure
tending to amalgamate parties, it is proof
positive that they have some vile scheme
of evil benath their professions of honesty.
This will appear from the fact that the
Wings never unite with or vote for Dem
ocrats when they themselves have the ma
jority. To Democrats; then, we say re-
main an unbroken phalanx-m maintain your
organization. By this means alone can
you look for the success of your principles.
Stick together-vote together-cast your
ballots arm to arm, shoulder to shoulder
Waste not your power or your substance
in divisions. We cannot any Of us have
things exactly as we want, but it is best
alwayr to be united. Stand by your Par
ty and your Ticket and glorious victory
will by your reward. Right must and
will prevail!'

The Power OF TRUTH

Wealth, we are told, is power talent is
power, and knowledge is power. But there
is n mightier force in the world than either
of these--a power which wealth is not rich
enough to purchase, nor genius subtle
enough TO refute, nor knowledge wise ,nou,h
to overreach, nor authority imposing enough
TO silence. They all tremhle in lis pres
rncc. 1t is ,ru,h-the really most potent
element Of social or individual life. Tho
tossed upon the pillows of popular tommo.
tion, or cast into the seven fold furnace 4
persecution, or trampled into the dust BY
the iron heel Of power, truth is the one iu-
deStructble thing in this world that loses IN
no conflict, suiftrs from no misusace or
abuse, and maintains its vitality an com
pletcneSs after every assault. A kinds Of
conspiracics have been undertaken TO destroy

having bunch on its back. The oily mass
from which it is made is found in large
triangular cavity, about five feet deep, and
ten or twelve feet long, which fllsi nearly
the whole of the head, save a space left for
the brain. The oil is separated from tho
spermaceti by putting it into bags and let
ting it drip away. It is brought home in
barrels, and has yellow unctuous appear

SHADING. THE EYrs.--Somr people cover
their eyes with green or other shades, when
anything is the matter Of them. This is
wrong 1t is now ascertained by the best
occulsts, that shades injure the sight instead
of Strengthening it, from their creating heat
and inflammation in tho parts affected. If
the eye be injured, and light insupportsble,
the best way is TO tie cool linen handker
chief over it. We have heard it stated as
a curious fact, that when the English army
returned from Egyyt, those soldiers were
least affected with ophlhalmia who had
worn no fronts TO their hats.

SIsTERs.-By endeavoring to acquire a4o-
it OF politeness, ii will soon become iatlDsr
and sit on you with ease, if not wifi. e.e-
gance. Let it never be forgotten Ihst gen
uine politcness is great iosterer Of family
love; it allays accidental irritation, by PIE
venting harsh retorts and rudo conlraa:c-
lions it sofIens the boisterous, shmu!ate'
the indolent, suppresses selfshnes', aud, =
forming a habit OF consideration for others,
harmonizos the whole
Polileness begcts politcness, and brothe s
may easily be won by ii to leave off the rude
ways they bring home from school or col
lege. Sisters ought never TO receive any
little attention without thanking them tor a.
never to ask favor of them but in cour-
teous terms, never TO reply 10 their questions
in monosyllabless, and they will soon be
ashamed 10 do such things themselves. Both
preccpt and example ought to be laid under
contribution, to convince them that no on
can have really good manners abroad who Is
not habitually polite at home

Capture Of an Escaped Conuict---
The steamer Major Tomrkins arrived
at San Francisco, on the 18th inst,
having on board the notorious negro
Hawkins, who escaped from the State
prison short time since The man
ner Of his capture deserves notice. Mr.
John M'Dougal, who was passenger
on board the Winfield Scott, at s
o'clock in the evening came OH shore
at Monterey, with the Purser. While
that gentleman was engaged at the
Post Office with the mail, Mr.. McDou-
gal remained standing in front of the
El Dorado, in conversation with Judge
Woodwork. Hawkins approached,
and enquired if either, of the gentlemen
was the purser Of the steamer. Mr..
M'Dougal recognized him immediate
ly, and called upon others TO assist him
in securing him, which they did. He
was placed in Jail at once. When ta-
ken, Hawkins had nearly $4,000 on his
person, $4,000 of which was in drafts

San Andreas.-At this camp On
Monday, says the Stockton Journal, a
Mexican who for some twelve or
eighteen months past has lent constant
aid to the Americans in detecting horse
thieves, received caution that n band
of robbers intended to have hislife for
betraying them to the Americans, and
distinctly described one of the gang
who was deputed to assassinate him,
and advising him to be on his guard.
Accordingly, on the afternoon in ques-
ton, as the intended victim was quiet
ly amusing himself with a game Of
cards, the assassin robber entered the
room, and was observed to have his
hand upon his pistol. This was in
stantly perceived by the Mexican who
dropped his cards, saying 81 cannot
play any more" and went into anoth-
er room. Procuring along knife, he
went directly up to the bandit, chal-
lenged him with his intention, and be-
fore he could use his pistol, plunged
his knife through and through him.
The Mexican then delivered himself
up to Judge Talliaferro, who, on hear
ing satisfactory evidence to substanti-
ate the above, discharged him.
