SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

Beaver Fremont Club, are Benjamin Wilde,
late Democratic candidate for Senate; Benj-
Rush Bradford, late American candidate for
! Governor; \. Robertson, late Wing Senators
Silas Merrick, formerly Democrat, &c. Tho
Fremont men claim fl ON 1000 to 1900 majori-
/ ty in Beaver.
The Illinois Independent says, there ap-
pears to be but one party in Herkimer county,
/ the party of Freedom and Fremont. 1t claims
! 5000 majority. A postmaster in one of the
( towns was inquired of from Washington as to
! the prospect in his neighborhood. He wrote
back that there was not a Buchanan man in
/ the town-not even himself; and if he was
/ turned out for saying so, he had this satisfac-
/ ton, that no one but a Fremont man could bs
1 appointed, as there ,oas no other in the folcn.
! Judge Gilbraith, for many years Demo
cratic leader in Northwestern Pennsylvania.
said about week since that the stampede to-
wards Fremont, in that portion of Pennsylva-
MIA, was beyond belief in calculation. The
masses having received the idea that it is not
/ true Democracy to assist in the extension OF
slavery. leaving the ranks by hundreds,
and there is no telling where the detection
will stop.
A new and important section OF the old
Democratic party of Vermont has come over
to the side of Fremont and Freedom. Chief
Justice Redfeld. Judge kellogg and William
c. Bradley are leaders in this further disnte-
! grafton of the sham Democracy. The latter,
who was in Congress in 1Sl3-15, and again ia
/ l623-27, and stood at the head of the Demo-
! cratic party OF Vermont through all its palmy
days, is now one of the Fremont Presidential
electors.
The Worcester Palladium, heretofore one
of the most influential Democratic papers in
Massachusetts,, has repudiated the Cincinnati
/ platform and run up the Fremont flag.
Hon. John Wentworth (the editor Of an
! influential paper in Chicago, formerly Demo
crat) has taken the stump in Illinois for Fre-
mont and Dayton.
The IFisconsian, an able and leading DEM
ocratic journal at Milwaukee, refuses to put
up Buchanan, and has run up Fremont and
Dayton.
The Rockford (III.) Democrat, always an
! Old Line Democratic paper, has hoisted the
names of Fremont and Dayton.

! y GLORIOUS AMBITIoN.-BY \ MASTER MIND
Said the Scythian ambassadors 10 Alexan-
/ der, III your person We're vast as your am
/ bition the world would not contain YOU" We
/ have now in our midst a conqueror whose am
bitionis as boundess as Alexander's. The old
world was too narrow sphere for its exercise,
/ and he has sought the new. We refer to Pro-
fessor Holloway, whose desire is to benefit
mankind unsatcd by the countless cures his
1 medicines have accomplished, he is now active
! ly engaged in revo!utionizing the treatment of
disease in this country. Conquest and subju-
/ cation are his oljccts-the conquest and sub
jugation of the various maladies that affiict
/ the haman race. The trophies of his skill arc
/ to be found in every region Of the earth, for
] his remedies omnpOtent, and wherever
( they have penetrated disease has given away
to their hygeian influence. Probably there
are not half a dozen newspapers in existence
that have not borne voluntary testimony TO the
mountaineering efficacy of Holloway's Pills
| and Ointment. 1t has heretofore been the uni
! vcrsal complaint against even the most popu-
/ lar medicines, that they were mere palliatives,
relieving pain temporarily, perhaps, but neve.
/ reaching the ..materies morbi,' or element OF
disease in the blood. Holioway's Pills, on the
/ contrary, act specifically upon the primary
cause of the malady in the fluids of the body,
Z ana from winch tieH spring. III cAlSThdl us
ease the Ointment is used as auxiliary to
the Pills, and lis sanatiyc effects arc scarcely
less wonderful.
We make these assertions-bold as they may
seem-on solid grounds. We have warrant for
them in the admission of the faculty-in the
statements of standard medical periodicals on
both sides of the Atlantic-in the published
acknowledgements of thousands of grateful
eonvalescents-and last, but not least, far
/ as private convictions concerned, in
our own personal experience and observations
To the man whose profound research and
practical skill in medical science have result
| cd in the production of such uncquaiied cura-
tives, and whose business energy and enter
/ prise have diffused them through every inhab-
! tied region between the equator and the poles,
! the homage Of the world is due. He has re-
ceived it. Wherever he has travelled his Jour
neys have rcsembled triumphai progress, and
/ the most naughty of Europe's aristocracy have
been proud to assist at his levees. He is now
resident-and we hope.he will become cit
izen of a land where the only titles recegniz-
ed are the titles of respect and gratitude earn
ed by public benefactors. Among that class
he has long stood pre-eminent, and it is per
-haps not too much to say that his European
1 aud American central manufactures 44Strand,
London, and so Maiden Lane, Yew York, are
! doing more practical good than all the ned
