and cannot stay there any longer than it
can in their eyes. If their livers are de-
ranged in any way, there are plenty OF
good physicians to prescribe for them,
but it is no valid excuse for taking doz-
ems of pills or quarts Of oil that their
tongues are yellow the morning after
pheasant evening" at the club. Tea
and toast, with a short walk and rational
indulgence in Natures gifts, viii do bet
ter for them than drastics and drenches.
They should learn that all drugs are pol
sons, and to be avoided as such; and
above and beyond all, they should learn
that as Providence made man to 1--we
through winter as well as summer, spring
as well as autumn, He never could have
committed so great an error as to constl-
tute US with systems requiring rhubarb,
aloes and colocynth, because 1t SHOWS

He never made such bungling work with
man as to lay him under obligations to
salts and SIENNA for safe transition from

don your reliance ON blue mass and pl'

Good News.

We see by the Nebraska News that
the question as to whether the country
South of the Platte River shall be slave
Territory or not, is being agitated. That
is better than We hoped for. Two slave
Territories, instead of one ! Pleased
are we that they should have started the
question among themselves. So north
Missourians to your posts Seize and hold
until the Grand Army which is now on
the road from the South, arrives to re-
fieve you. North Missourians, yours is
the post of honor You are the van
guard of the South Show yourselves
as capable of gaining moral victory
over the enemies of your institutions as
you were of gaining one over the enc
mics of your country, under the i'm
mortal Doniphan. Instead of receding,
push your victorious arms towards the
North, and show those agitators of the
East that money and free institutions
are not synonomus terms, as they assert.
Show them that we of the West are not
like their own paupers, to be bought and
sold, or carried here or there at the pleas
ures of capitalists. Show them that
you are bona tide descendants of Boone
and Kenton; that you are sons of the
South and southern men, and instead of
an inglorious retreat before northern ag-
gression, yours is the pleasant duty to
carry southern institutions and princi-
pies towards the North.-Ransas Pion-

Talking to the Point.

The Albany Argus, a supporter of the
Nebraska bill and of the National Ad-
ministration, like the Post of P ittsburgh
does not seem to relish the dish they
have thus aided in cooking up for them
selves and others. The Argus says, in
speaking of the conduct of Senator Atch-
ison and his band of outlaws:
This is not the kind of popular soyer.
eighty to which Democrats of the North,
in standing shoulder TO shoulder with
southern men in passing the Nebraska
bill, consented. 1t does not meet ON
approval. We repudiate it. And we
call upon southern men and southern
presses to speak out and repudiate it also.
An opportunity is now afforded to the
South to show that, to maintain national
political creed, it is not necessary That
the sacrifices should be all on one side.
Northern statesmen and presses have
brayed much of popular condemnation
in standing mp boldly for national doc
trines and defending the just rights OF
the South. 1t would have been much
easier for them to have foated with the
current, than to have stemmed it. An
opportunity is now afforded for the exhi-
bition of somewhat of the same courage
and justice by southern men. We at
least are entitled 10 know, most explicitly,
whether we are to be met by the same
good fault which We have extended to
our southern friends. We say to the
South, plainly and honestly, that unless
this is done, northern men, who have
stood on common platform with the
South, can stand there no longer
Northern feeling win not tolerate it.
