THE GREAT REMEDY.

g" "The discoverer of Great Remedy
for a formidable disease has no right to keep
its Use from his fellow creatures" So thought
Dr. MLane, when he was induced to offer his
great Medicine for worms to the public. A
profoundphysiciah, enjoying very large Prac-
tice, his sense of duty towards suffering hui
manity outweighed his fear to be confounded
with the herd of quacks who impose upon the
public their worthless stuff as patent medicines.
He was therefore induced by Kidd u Co..
Druggist, to dispose of his right as discovered
and this best of all Vermitages isnow for sale
in every village and town of the country. 1t
is the sovereign remedy for worms Sold by
Scovil & Mead, Ill Chartres st, New Orleans.
Eg- Also, sold by Messrs. Wright q Elder,
Woodville, and Seth Kline, Fort Adams.

DoN'r READ THns---It is not often we
praise ourselves, but we will call attention to
our columns this week and commend the issue
to all into whose hands It may fall, as a spe-
cimen of most insuiferable dullness, our leader,
though expressing our sentiments, is outrage
ously stupid, eur paragraphs are devoid Of
point (nothing new, you say,) and the scis-
sors' selections, without either taste or merit,
and take it all in all, we think we have tr-
umphed in our efforts this time to make our

EE- The Springfield Republican, which by the
way is the abest newspaper that the Wings OF Mas.
sachusetts have the present time expresses very
strong desire that the Wing Convention which is to
assemble Fitchburg morrow, should declare for
some distinct practical democratic of Con,
sutoaa reform 1t says, ''lhe interests of the
State and the rights Of the people require certain
important alterations in the Constitution We are
glad to see such indications OF progressive spirit
the part Of contemporary, but fear that its APP
peals to the Wing party will avail nothing. The
great majority Of the Wings have settled down in
the conviction that the old Constitution was the EN-.
bodiment Of political wisdom, and that what was
good enough for the fathers is good enough for the
children, and they desire change. This has been
the baggage Of all their presses, with the exception
Of the Alias while under Col. Schouler's control,
and we think friends Of the Republican viii find
1t hard work impress such body OF old fogies
as will meet in Convention al Ftehburg with their
Young America notions.
Reverence for antiquity hasb become a leading cb ar
acteristic Of the Wings Of Massachusetts. They do
not inquire so much TO the goodness Of any meas
areas they do II Us cid, and such an extent do
they carry this sentiment Of veneraton that with al
their love Of the Fugitive Slave Law il may be
doubted If they would be half jealous for its en-.
forcement, IL they were not fully persuaded in their
own minds that il is IN reality the statute of 81,
slightly modified 10 It's grammatical construction
Therefore, when the Republican asks them TO "strike
out boldly and uniaIteringy in a new palh--soch as
the times demand, and their own existence as party
calls forto declare for real, substantial, practical
reform, and tell the people what they mean by re-
iorm'it asks for the performance Of an impossible
iiy II would be funny sight indeed 60 see the
bunker Wings "strke out boldly and unislteringly"
into anything, but to them striking into nsw
path, and begin to tell the people what they mean by
reform, would be a matter Of much surprise as 10

THE New YoRK SUB-TREAsURY-The
New York Herald gives an interesting statement
of the manner in which the government specie IS
kept in the city. On Friday night last, ten mil
lions of dollars, consisting exclusively of gold coin
of the United States, with the exception of few
hundred dollars in silver, were locked up in the
vaults in the Assistant Treasurer's office. His
office is situated in the northeasterly room of the
Custom House, which is built of iron and stone,
having double iron shutters, and being guarded
by two watchmcn, who occupy the apartment
during the night. The safe containing the com,
is composed of double sheets of iron, strengthen
ed by cross bars or lattice work of cast steel rods,
between which no instrument can cut or file -
The safe is fifteen feet long eight wide, and about
as many feet high. 1t is divided into two apart
ments, in the inner one of which the money is
deposited, and it has three thick iron doors, each
having two locks, the keys to which are distrib-
uted at night among the different clerks-the As
sIstant Treasurer keeping himself the register of
The principal key, so that the safe cannot be un-
locked unless all are present. On the sides of
the safe are tiers of boxes, capable of holding
in all nine millions six hundred thousand dollars.
They are now filed with coin, which is put up in
bags of five thousand dollars each, excepting a
few containing small amounts, for convenience in
making payments. The weight of the ten mil
hons of gold now in custody, is eighteen and three
quarter tons.
