MAINE ELEcr1oN,-As usual, every demo

sure of it that it would be criminal to doubt

We have never known the telegraph, in such

therefore, it tells the truth now. And yet
we have to say to our readers-what we have
said before-thata party bold and base enough
to ally to itself all the factions and isms of
the day can scarcely fail to succeed at the first
or second trial: but, for ourselves, we are like

The Recfproeify Treaty.

The negotiation Of this treaty, and the inn
portant benefits secured 10 our country By its
provisions, forms subject Of remark for pol
iticians and the press generally. There is q
party extant that glory in opposition; and
whose course of conduct is regulated by a
principle Of hatred to democratic men, as
well as the measures of policy proposed and
effectuated under their control It seems to
be, and undoubtedly is the settled rule Of
this party to oppose every feature of the
present administration, and to condemn its
every act. Il assumes position Of hostility
that will not suffer the approach of sound
reason; and when heInmed about by irrefuta-
bic reasoning, cries out with the Frenchman
so much the worse for the facts" In rem
dering their judgments they count up all the
sin, but forget to put the virtues in. 1t be-
comes our duty therefore to hold the party in
power, with what ability we may, and en-
deavor to show that the present administra
ton although much abused and villifed is
not altogether barren Of good deeds. We
claim for the President and his cabinet the
honor and credit of consummating this great
measure.
We are by reason of this treaty put in full
and uninterrupted enjoyment of the finest
fishing grounds in the world. And not only
this, but the country is relieved of the fears
of collision with England in consequence
of the unsettled state of our relations on the
fishery subject.
Amore important portion Of this treaty,
inasmuch as it marks an epoch in the pro-
gress ofliberal principles, is that establishing
reciprocal free trade in the most important
natural products between the United States
and the British North American provinces.-
A democratic administration has accomplish
ed that which thus far has been oaly an as
piration of democratic policy. It has made
the first practical experiment of free trade in
this country. All the important ploducts of
the colonies come to us free of duty. A mod
crate duty, averaging about II per cent, re-
mains upon our manufactures entering the
colonies. This duty is just sufficient to pay
the expenses of these governments; and as
they impose the same duty upon British man
ufactures, and have but few manufactures OF
their own, they are relatively free The col
onists Will now seek their markets in Ameri-
can cities, instead of crossing the ocean,
They will buy where they sell. Thus new
outlets viii be given to our manufactures,
and legitimate protection furnished which
no high tariffs could afford.
To New England and New York, especial
ly, the advantages of this treaty are almost
incalculable. No event has occurred since
the peace of 1915 so vitally affecting their
interests. We already hear from the canals
and railroads of the North the busy note of
preparation for the new tide of commerce
which is to pour along them.

1.-THE KNOW NOTHING EXPOSURE
The Editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer has re-
ceived great number of letters asking il
the exposure of the Know Nothings which
recently went the round of the press is au-
thentic. He answers: We have the assur1
ance of dozens of personal friends, men of
strict veracity, aud who were inYeigled into
the order, only to withdraw in scorn as soon
as they discovered its iniquitous character,
that our publication was almost literally word
for word, faithful and true We don't doubt
it in the least. No man of yeracity here, OF
the order, denies.
We notice in the Philadelphia papers that
this secret organization is about to split in
twain if it has not already done so. The
Hon. Joseph R. Chandler, a prominent Wing
member of the present Congress, from the
city of Philadelphia, has announced himself
as an Independent candidate for fe-election,
against the regular Wing nominee. Mr..
Chandler for many years was the editor of
the leading Wing paper in Philadelphia. and
has long ranked among the most influential
men in that city. lie is man Of wealth,
talents and probity, is Of an old American
patriotic family, but has been thrown over
board by his party for the reason, that in
his religious belief he is a Catholic.
The Know-N Nothings, under the CoNRAD
dispensation in Philadelphia, are considered
so strong, and have such apotential influence
in swaying the councils of Whiggery, that it
was deemed necessary to sacrifice Mr.. Chan
dler upon the altar of their bigotry and in
tolerance. This result has caused great com
motion in the opposition wigwam. Mr.. Chan
dIer has hosts Of friends, especially among
the National, Clay Wings Of the city, and
they are highly indignant that he should be
set aside. The practical application Of Know
Nothing principles to him excites their alb
horrenee. There is every indication that
there viii be serious split in the party
The true, liberal, National Wings will OPP
pose any alliance or afiIiation with the se-
cret conspirators against civil and religious
liberty, and will drop CONRAD, PoLLocK q
Co, and the rest Of the shallow, miserable
demagogues who are followingin their wake.
Several political elements are at work in
Philadelphia, which ii their results upon the
election viii astound Whiggery and Know
Nothingism when the returns come in from
there at the next election.
The Yazoo Democrat., 1854-10-04

A SIcNIFICANT TRUTH.-One fact stands
out conspicuously at the present moment
and that is, that no American citizen, and
no adopted citizen, has yet dared publicly to
defend or advocate the doctrine of intoler
ance which lies at the foundation of the new
party Of prescription. No man who can
truly boast of his love of country, ofhis hold
upon past memories, or his hope in the future
prosperity of our republic, has yet shown
hardihood enough to argue in favor of dis
franchising his fellow-citizen who differs from
him in religious belief. That base and un-
grateful argument has been left to the recess
ses of secret societies or to the conclayes of
oath-bound enemies of political equality and
religious freedom. Thus far, no man has at
tempted, in the open day, to sustain dog
ma at once disgraeeful and revolving. When
that can be done, the internal traitor will be
audacious enough to preach against the prac-
ticability of republican institutions, and the
folly Of equality among men, from the house
tops and street-corners.

The progress Of il1eateol Science. We have
just examined new and marked evidence of
this caption, in q compound from the East, pre-
pared By Dr.. J. C. Aver, Of Lowell. Mass. Dr.
Aver is deep Chemist, and combines the con-
stituents Of this remedy in strict accordance
with the chemical principles Thereis nothing
secret about it, but the whole composition and
process Is freely published and made known to
the Medical Profession. We have the Formula
with full particulars, in the Doctors own hand
writing, and must in sincerity say Of it and the
medicine, that they show skill and intrinsic
merit which is worthy of all commendation.-
The Medicine has in disease Of the throat and
lungs, been fully tested by all the Medical Col
leges and most Of our eminent Medical men.
and is as far as | know highly applauded by
them.
While therefore. am most heartily opposed
to the recommendation of all secret remedies,
can cordially and in my capacity of Physician,
properly recommend the Cherry Pectoral to the
Rochester Banner.

debted to Messrs. Dewitt q Davenport, pub

Mrs. Gore has been so long and favorably
known to the public, that it seems work of
supererogation to praise new work from her
pen-nor should we now, did not this last
work of hers possess not only all the grace
and elegance that so peculiarly belong to this
writer, but also the additional merit of en-
deavoring, by the powerful medium of fc-
ton, to effect most essential progress in eve
rything that's good, by doing away with
that old family pride and prejudice that have
made so much unhappiness, and showing the
happy result Of the prophecy of Sir Mark
Zone of the principal charactersl in which
he says: "The day that renders you consci-
Gus of the value of domestic happiness will
be the best spent day Of your life.' This is
the right spirit; and we are glad that SO bril-
liant writer as Mrs. Gore enforces it with
all the magic of a delightful story. 1t can't
help but be popular, for it has all the ele-
ments.

THE WHIGs AND Commemorative years
ago General Scott and the Wing leaders
travelled the entire country, pleading for for
eign Catholic votes, and denouncing Gen.
Pierce and the Democratic party as being
their enemies. Every Wing paper took the
same course. Gen. Scott loved the rich Irish
brogue and sweet German accent, and his
toadies swallowed the declaration with thrill
ling satisfaction. The only bid ever made in
this country for foreign Catholic votes was
made blythe Wing party, under lead Of Cen
eral Scott, and now that same party have
shifted their ground, and are endeavoring to
strengthen their party by abuse Of foreigners.
A party without principle, is an unprincipled
party.

from diseased Liver manifest themselves,
more or less, in every family dyspepsia, sick
headache, obstruction of the menses, ague and
fever, pains in the side, with dry. hacking
cough, are all the results of hepatic derange-
ment-and for these DR.. McLane's Pills are
sovereign remedy. They have never been
known to fail, and they should be kept at all
times by families.
DIREcTIoNs.-Take two or three going to
bed, every second or third night. If they do
not purge two three times by next morning
take one or two more. A slight breakfast should
invariably follow their use.
The Liver Pill may also be used where pur-
glng is simply necessary. As an anti-bilious
purgative, they are inferior to none. And in
doses of two or three, they give astonishing
relief to sick headache; also in slight de-
rangements of the stomach.
