HENDERsoN, Sept. "a, 1855

GENTLEMEN 81 am In the receipt of
your favor of the 10Th inst, requesting me to
be present and address mass meeting of the
Democracy, to be deld at Paducah on the 9th
inst. You are right in supposing that is my
intention to cooperate in future with the DEM
ocratic party The Whig party, with which
I have SO long acted, has no longer political
existence. i have no party now but my coun-
try. To this shall not cease to be faithful
The American party, divided as it is into two
great sectional parties, the one northern and
the other southern, can only injure where it
would serve the country; for, instead of
strengthening the natioual men of all parties,
it can only divide them in all the elections,
when union and concert of action are necessa-
ry to the very salvation of the country. As
far as [ can judge, the Democratic party, al
though weakened in the free States, is still
national. and still co-operates with the south
| ern Democracy in opposition to the Abolition
| lists aud Free Eoilers of the North, who, to
! destroy the institution Of slavery. would rend
the Union asunder, and bury beneath the ru-
ms of the Constitution the liberties of the
country. .:.
I regret, gentlemen, that circumstance.

OUR TERMS.

'-F
BY noticing our terms, our subscribers
will notice that we have made something of
a change in them. Our terms hereafter.
and IN all occasions, will be TWO DOL.
LARS per annum, payable within.-the year.
We have been sinking money by publishing
our paper at 81, so a year, and We can't
stand it any longer. We know that our
subscribers do not desire that we shall lose
money by publishing our paper, but that
they will checrfully agree to give us the
two dollars a year. The reason That we
have raised The subscription price Of our pa
per is simply this: Paper has advanced
one-half within the last twelve months, -four
ditto, Labor the same, and every thing else
in proportion. We had either to cut down
the size Of our paper, OF raise the terms, and
We concluded that the latter would be the
most satisfactory to our patrons.
Now we wish it to be distinctly under
stood, that We will not take, nor will we al
low our hands, or agents to take less than
TWO DOLLARS a year for the Sentinel
after this day; and we beg of our patrons
not to bother us or them about taking a
dollar and & hall, or any sum less than two
dollars, AS WE WILL NOT Do IT.
Our readers are looking for this change
in the price of our paper; as We gave notice
OF it several weeks since.
Those that have PAID us or our agents
before this date. will be credited at the rate
of 81. so aoyear, but those that have not
will have TO pay So, ard no mistake.
We trust all flour patrons will be salts
ted with this change, We can assure them
that printing tha Sentinel at 81. 60 a year,
was a better business when we first took
charge Of the paper in 1851. than it will be
COW az sc, 90 or ever Sc, 50.
The Democracy Of this county should
have as much liberaIi;y as their opponents,
the wings. They have always been paying
two dollars a year for the Republican; (and
it is no Target than the Sentinel, ifas large,)
and its editor Mr, liattou says they have
dcne 60 without the least grumblng. We
think our Democratic friends will prove
themselves jast.a liberal as their opponents,
if not more 80.
We wish hat our friends would do what
they can for us just at this time. We would
like to have few new subscribers. Now
who is in this county that is opposed to pro.
scribing a mon on account Of hfs birth, will
send us the largest list? Let all do what
they can.

not agree very well. The inter probation o
his editorials by any sensible man, woult
be simply this: Richards opposition t.

Ii our opposition is all CANNON, it is a kline

Banker. Look Out.

The following communication from DR..
Buchanan. of Cincinnati, to The New York
Tribune, discIoses the fact that the whole
Rag Money System is in danger Of being
blown sky high by the magic power of
Photography. Counterfsiters will not be
slow in awaiting themselves ofthe discovery,
and then they will be able to deceive the
very elect among the money changers. DR..
Buchanan says:
81 have just Witnessed som illustrations
Of the art of Photographs Counterfeiting.
which l deem highly important, not only to
bank officers, but to the public at large
Mr.. Fontayne, of this city, one of the best
daguerreotypis:s in the world, has recently
made several Photographic copies Of bank
notes, which far surpass, in the perfection
Of their details, anything which has ever,
been done in the old way of counterfeiting.
When these photographs are carefully sa-
ken on proper bank note paper, they defy
detection either by the naked eye or BIZ
microscopic inspection.
Zone of these photographs, from a $40
bill, was deposited by Mr.. s. with other bills,
in the Life and Trust Company, and was
received without suspicion. He then in
formed them thatthere was a bad bill among
item; the money was re-inspected, and he
was positively assured that it WAS sill good,
and requested 10 point out the detective
bill; he did so. AMI after a general ex.mina-
ton by tbs officers present, the bill was a.
gain pronounced good. Another trial was
made by presenting a Photographic copy Of
a bill at the principal B mixing House. At
the Banks of Slnead. Collari Il Hughes.
Gregory Il Ingulsbee, and some others, the
photograph was received. and after careful
inspection. was pronounced a good BILL A
still more rigid test was made by pre- senting
photographs and genuine bills to Mr.. Booth,
and other bank note engrayeys. After the
mos! careful inspection, they were unable to
detect the pho,o graphic counterfeit, for as
] have observed, the minatest details are
perfect under microscopic scrutiny.
Il think it obvious from these facts that
our paper money currency is in " dangerous
condition, and that it is necessary TO give
the widest publicity to these alarming de-
%velopments. If any good master Of photo.
: graphy can, in a short time, AMI at trif-
ling expense, food the country with spurious
( money, which even cashiers, presidents, and
E experts OF every grale are unable TO detect.
we hare no security in our paper currency.
Il n y y X Il X

A Representative.

The Know Nothings invariably make the
boast that they do not intend to elect any
but the very bes! men for office. In Mas
%sachusetts they elected a person to the Leg
~islature, who rote home to his wife3the fol-
lowing literary production. Its taken from
the Boston Times. This fellow talksa good
deal like some Know Nothings we know Of
in Harrison county. They make a great
fuss about "tarriners," as they term our
foreign population; but when you question
them right close, they can't tell why a person
who was born on the other sideof the wa
tiers, is not as good as one born in this coun-
try.
Some of their candidates they nominated
the other night, would make about as good
a show in exhibiting their learning, as their
colleague in Massachusetts has done.
