It has been proposed to sunder the attach
mept or connection between them, by sur
gical operation, but their family physician
insist that it would be dangerous in the ex-
trcme, and if done, he will not be answera-
bic for the lives of either. So we think Eng
will continue on and gradually lose himself
in Chang. The twins Were not ableto speak
the English language and employed as IN
terpreters Bion Bradbury, of PASSPORT for
Chang, and Abram Sanborn of Bangor for
Eng. We understand that these curiositics
are to be exhibited in every county in the
State, and would bcspeak for them favora-
BILE notice as being the greatest wonders OF
the age.

The Siamese Twins

Were exhibited in this town on Wednesday
last. The exhibition of Chang took place in
Lords Hall, that of Eng in Writings Hall
The attendance was not large, although great
efforts had been made for weeks throughout
the County, by posters, letters and urgent
appeals, to induce the people to come. We
were present a part Of the time, at each Hall
and hesitate not to say that of all natural
phenomena we ever witnessed, this was the
most remarkable. Al the birth of these
twins they. were not only separate and de-
tached from each other but there was vio-
lent animosity and repulsion between them.
Within year or two however, a remarkable
attachment has been growing and drawing
them together until at the presen time they
are so closely connected that it is difficult to
distinguish one from the other. We are
happy in being able to state that they now
live in the utmost harmony. 1t was truly
delightful to witness the brotherly affection
and kindness displayed by both. Chang no.
titled his audience that Eng would perform in
the evening at Writings Hall and advised
his company to attend. Eng on the other
hand, repeatedly offered to share his bread
and butter with Chang, who in his turn Of
fered his brother the remnants of his pap.
On political issues they harmonic perfect
ly, although Chang goes for Buchanan and
Eng goes or pretends to 60 for Fillmore.
Chang, however, says he will not allow Eng
to vote for Fillmore and to prevent him
threatens to cut of his pap, bread and but
ter and all. In the physical conformation Of
these twins, there is a marked difference.
Chang is the largest, Chang holds the purse
strings, Chang manages and rules. Eng is
the smallest, most submissive and seems to
play second fiddle. Chang lives on his broth
er and seems to thrive, but at the same time,
he is SO kind and afEectionate, that Eng is sat-
isfed and happy. 1t is however, sad to see
Eng, once stout and vigorous and the equal,
every way, Of Chang growing day by day
weaker and more emaciated. II is probable
that if this state of things continues, that
Eng will become entirely absorbed

President Pierce. in a recent speech,
says of the nomination of Mr.. Buchanan :
81 congratulate you that your choice
has fallen on q man who stands on the
IDENTICAL PLATFORM THAT |
NOW OCCUPY, and will take the
SAME with the standard lowered never
an inch"
Stephen Arnold Douglas in his late
New York speech said:
buchanan and myself have for sever
al years back, ever since come into pub-
lie life, HELD THE SAME Position
on the slavery question from beginning to
end"
Now hear what Buchanan says:
II have been placed on a PLAT
FORM OF WHICH l HEARTILY
APPROVE. and l must square my con-
duct by that platform"

ter the arrival Of Mr.. Burlingame, ac-
companied by his friend and second,
Gen. James of Wisconsin at the Everett

his hand with the rifle at the usual dis

ANOTHER IMPORTANT ACCESSION

ANOTHER IMPORTANT ACCESSION
The Sandusky Register publishes let
ter written by Ex-Lieut. Gov. Myers, Of
Ohio, one of the leading Democrats OF
the State, and a man of great influence.
Mr.. Myers was Democratic Lieut.. Gov
ernor in 1854, and was run on the
State ticket, with Medill, in 1855, but
was defeated. He has also been State
Senator, elected of course, by the "Dem-
ocracy." And he has been talked of for
Governor, by the Democrats, at several
State Conventions of Ohio. He now
takes strong ground against the Cincin-
natl Platform. He says:
"But preferring the approval of my
own conscience to any other considera-
ton, l am forced into the position now
assume, position which believe to be
consistent with the Jeffersonian Demo-
cratic principles and antecedents of the
Democratic party. cannot support any
party whose organization l am satisfied
is used to aid the extension of slavery
into Free Territory.
l have become satisfied beyond all
doubt that the Democratic organization
is now used by ambitious and unprinci-
pied men for their own aggrandizement,
and 70 effect their object, they have las
far as in their power) thrown the Demo.
cratic party into the hands Of the Slave
Power, to be used as they may direct.
Believing, as do, that their measures
are calculated and intended to make
Kansas a Stare State, cannot sustain
them. without doing violence to my own
PRINCIPLES.
