November /, 1855.
DKAR Sin: Allow me 10 express to you my sincere
thanks for your discovery of medicine which, 10 say
the least Of it, has effected cure that all other med
icines that have taken have entirely failed to do.
Hoofands German Bitters have cured me of the most
stubborn and aggravated of the Piles that per-
haps ever fell 10 the lot Of man. My case is not a
stranger in this community, as | am well known in
this and the surrounding counties and can truly say
that my recovery has astounded all my friends and
relations, as / had tried everything recommended,
and nothing did me any good, until was prevailed
upon TO try the Bitters You at liberty to make
any use Of this communication for the Der eft of the
afflicted you may think proper.
Truly, yours, WIN. J. ATWOOD.

For the Western Democrat.
lures.

Mr.. EDIToR:-I see from the published
proceedings, that the Democracy of Cataw-
ba county, have proposed to hold Dis
trict convention, and have appointed dele
gates to meet here to send delegates from
this electoral district to the National
Convention. which will meet in Cincinnati
the LIST of June next, to nominate can
didates for President and Vice President
of the United States.
This being the most central and accepta-
BILE point. it would be more convenient to
hold the convention in this town, and
think April Court, would be the appropriate
time. Those counties that desire it, could
then have representation, and the delegates
would be such as would be most likely to
express the voice of the district. If we de-
fer it later, we might fail to be represented
at all. The distance is great, and six weeks
would not be too long notice to those whom
we might appoint. Under existing ciroum-
stances. 1 regard it as important that
every district in the old State, should be
represented in the National Convention
by an accredited delegate. Let US then,
sir, have it understood that our district
convention will assemble in Charlotte, on
Tuesday of our April Court, (the 29th,) and
that each county be requested to appoint
delegates That will be after the ad-
iournment of the State convention, and
good time to open the gubernatorial cam
paign. Catawba is banner county, and
her suggestion should be responded to with
cordially and promptness.

EUROPEAN ALLIANCE AGAINST
THE UNITED STATES.

The last Richmond Enquirer says -
From the English papers by the last mail,
we learn that the idea of European coali-
ton against the United States has not been
abandoned, but is gravely entertained and
earnestly advocated by the British Minis
try. The Post, organ of government, and
another journal of more liberal professions,
openly propose the measure, and frankly
avow the motives of their policy. They
cxpatiate in hypcrbolical language on the
aggressive ambition of the United States,
and narratc, with many circumstances of
rhetorical establishment, the successive
steps in our march TO prosperity and pow
or. Having thus awakened the jealousy
and apprehension of other powers, these
writers artfully cndcavor to excite indigna-
ton against us by dcclaimng against the
sclsfshneSs, absurditv and inSolencc of our
pretenSinn to exclusive domination on the
American continent. And now. it is the
opinion of Intelligent persons in Paris, that
Louis Napoleon mcdiatcs demonstration
in Central Amcrica--an opinion to which
the recent arrival of & French war ship at
San Juan imParts the force of accomplished
fact. Undoubtedly the project of an al
lance against the United States is well
calculated to captivate the restless and as
piring fancy of the French Emperor"
The Enquirer, in long Editorial on the
subject, gives many reasons to apprchend
an European Alliance against the United
States, and says ''thcrc is already urgent
need of vigilant regard to American inter
ests, and concerted resistance to schemes
of foreign aggression"
