FILLMORE STOCK ON H RISE.

From every section of the country the
papers are coming out in favor of FILL
MORE and DONALDSON. In our issue of
two weeks ago we gave the first indica.
tions of favor for the ticket. Last week
we published the speech of LEW CAMr-
DELL, who helped do the talking at the
great fusion mass mectingi in Ashland last
fall. This speech of LEWIS fell upon the
fusionists hereabouts like o wet blanket.
Last fall Mr.. CAMPBELL could talk of
nothing else but niggerism; now he
thinks the less that's said about it the
better. Any farther agitation of that
question in the north, might affect the
harmony of the great American" par
ty. In an exchange VIC find the folloY-

We conclude this article with tho fol.
lowing endorsement Of the -FILLMoRt
and DONALDSON ticket, taken from thai
old, reliable and conservative Wbis
Journal, the National LutcNigcncer:
As we are not members of that par
", We should conceive that we had &c
right to find fault with its selection were
, it in any respect Objectionable SO, per
haps, it is not incumbent on us to praise
its choice, free as IL not only Is from &C
ccpfion, but fit, and proper, and uorths
as every body knows the distinguished
c%i,izen to be, whom the party has chosen
as their candidate for the presidency
What course the wings may pursue IN
der the present political circumstance:
of the country, what candidate they may
select or what person they may support
for the chief magistracy, it is not for vi
to decide or for any one now to say. Il
will doubtless be deemed proper BY
them to take counsel together as to The
path which their duty to the country
and their principles shall prescribe. and
that path we, as unwavering adherent'
of the party, shall be prepared to tread
without hesitation and without faltering
Whether they resolve upon an indepen'
druJ c0urSU OF not, and whether 1t lead
to success or failure, belong to the fu
turc but we should be unfaithful to oul
known sentiments and uniform avowal.
if we were to suppress now, the express
sion of our opinion of the merits of Mr..
Fillmore, and the confidence with which,
on trial, he inspired the country in his
qualifications for a a0ise, safe and conserv
attire President"

e. See advertisement of the con
solidation of Messrs. MANSFIELD aud
WH1rINa's Glover Hulling establish
ments. We have long since come to the
conclusion that it was to tho interest of
both these gentlemen to work together,
instead of uniting in opposition to each
other. Both the MANSFIELD and SUTH-
ERLAND machines possess superior mer-
its, and as they were both invented by
citizens of Ashland, We we're sorry to see
the friends of each machine unite in de-
%nouncing the other. By the advertise
ment referred TO, it will be seer this
strife is no longer to exist. The whole
forco of both establishments is to be set at
work in manufacturing thess machines.
This will give employment to q large
number of our enterprising young me-
chanics, and Ashland will thus continue
to turn out the best Glover Hullers in
the State. Success to the new enter
prise.

modern ~Inxcntions.

We know of no invention of modern times
that deserves or is d. stined to occupy o higher
niche in the temple of fame. than the discovery
or invention of the Vegetable Epiletic Pills for
curing Epilepsy, or Falling Fits Spasms,
Cramps, and ali the various notifications of
Nervous Disease. DR.. SETH S. HANcE, of los
Baltimore street, Baltimore. Md, the inventor,
is certainly entitled to to the best wishes of all
the benevolent portion of mankind, who expe-
rienced a pleasure by the alienation of human
suffering. When DIR. Hanoe first prepared
these Pills, he intended them solely for Fits,
Cramps and Spasms but subsequent expert
ence satisfactorily proved to him, that in addi-
zion to their remarkable s~anative properties in
this class of diseases they exerted q perfect con-
troll over the entire nervous system. He was
then induced totry them in cases of Neuralgia,
Tic-Doloreux, Nervous Headache; -Palpitation
of the Heart, Incipient Paralysis, Hysteria;
Muscular Debility, and q host of minor disca-
SEES, ~springing from q lack of nervous energy, in
all of which his anticipations were crowned
with the most sanguine success. Persons at a
distance, by writing and sending q remittance
to DIR. Hance, can have the medicine forwarded
by mail to their post office address, he paying
the postage. The prices are for a siH5t7-he1.
So, two boxes, SIS, or $24 per dozen. We have

Buchanan and with this view every North

vote be- ever gave, Is carefully suppressed,
