 est point of convenience, beauty, and style, in mercantile architecture, in his new warehouse and office, for the sale of the celebrated Hoo 1and's German Bitters, 96 Arch street, below Fifth This splendid building, whose exterior has for months attracted the admiration of all who passed, by the originality and delicacy of it's ornamentation, and the harmony and grace of its proportions was opened on the 10th inst to company of tue Doctors friends and ac- quaintances, who enjoyed themselves right merrlie" on the occasion.
 The building, which is four sotories in height and 100 feet dcep contains Dr. Jackson's la- boratory and office, besides one of the most tasteful and elegant saes-room we hvac ever seen, and room in the rear so admirably ar ranged for clerks, cashier, book keeper, etc., etc., that we thought we were going into a front saloon is laid with alternate squares of frescoed, and highly decorated in white and marble, supporting the central arch are admi- rably wrought. Indeed, the whole building, inside and out, is noble illustration of the taste and skill of American workmanship, ard re- fleets the greatest credit upon the public spirit of notice and commendation all such efforts to embellish our cities with elegant buildings, and to relieve the dull monotony of trade and pro- fessional life, by providing it with habitations light, cheerful, handsome and convenient The business world is becoming imbuded with practical ideas of art, helth, and convenience; and whenever we are obliged to pick our way carefully among the rubbish of old buildings torn down, we console ourselves with the idea that we are on our way to city of palaces Dr. Jackson has anticipated events, and has already contributed his place-and a lovely one 1t Is to.-Phaloda.

0- In this mammon- worshiping age, it is rare to find man place his usefulness to the public, before his interest. During late visit to the "Cty of Spindles," we were presented by professional friend to the celebrated chemist Dr.. J. c. Aver, whose name is now perhaps more familiar than any other, at the bedside of sickness, in this country. Knowing the unpre- cedented popularity of his medicines, and the immense sale of them, we had expected to find him mllionare, and rolling in wealth. But no we found him in his laboratory. busy with his laborers, among his crucibles, alembics, and retorts-giving his best personal care to the compounds, on the virtues of which thousands hang for health. We learned that notwith- standing his vast business. and its prompt re- turns in cash, the doctor is not rich. The req son assigned is, that the material is costly, and he persists in making his preparations so expen- sively, that the nett profit is small.-Ameal- can Farmer, Phal

X Card.

few days ago friend placed in my hands all abolition paper published at Chicago, H., containing letter purporting to have been written by Archibald Williams, bearing date the 14th of March. This letter, written bv one of the leaders of the black republican party In Illinois, l am informed was addressed to prominent opponent of the democratic party in the State of Virginia, and at his request, and by him, published in Virginia paper, although did not+scc it until placed ill my hands as above stated.
 The letter Is as follows:
 COL. RICHARDSON ON SLAVERY "Quiney, (W.,) March II, 1856.
 DEAR SIR: Your letter of the 9th inst. has just reached me h it you inquire, Did Col. Wm. A. Richardson, your opponent for Congress in the last contest state to his consti- tuents that the Kansas X ebraska bill would have the effect of making those territories ircc?' l cannot state that he did in the pre- cIsc terms of your intcrrosatory, but he did ire quenty and emphatcally say that the repeal of the Missouri restrcton as he called it. was favorable to freedom; and thatit (the restrcton) established slavery south of 36 deg. 30 min, and that under the squatter sovereignty prl- cple the whole of the territory, as well south as north of that line, would be formed into free States. l give, in his own words, one of his tavortc cxclamatious, Novcr mind -never mind--wait awhile, and you will see before this time next year the people of the territory wili prohIbit slavery.'
 am very respectfully, your obedicnt ser want, ARCHIBALD WILLIAMS P. S Col. Richardson, during the whole of our canvass, dgnantly repeIed the charge ot being in favor cf slavery A. w." 1 The only notice desire to take of this let ter Is to pronounce 1t sp gross a pervorsion of my position and speeches, then and BOW, as to amount to d base and infamous lie. My posi- ton then was, aud now is, that the Kansa,-Nc braska act was based upon the true principles ot the constitution, in recognizing the right of each state and territory, preparatory to it's ad- mission into the Union, to form and regulate their domestic institutions in their own way, subject to the constitution of theUhited States, and thu would vote for the admission of each rev State, with or without slavery, as its own people should decde and this principle con- trolled my action in the support of the Kansas. 1 Nebraska bil
 1 While it is impossible for me in this card to state all the arguments used in the canvass for Congress, do say that any one who pre- tends that assumed any position inconsistent with this principle wilfully lies.

encouragement of aggressons upon the govern ment of the territorial inhabitants of Kansas deserves, and should receive, the united con. demnation of the American people, and that the institution of slavery should derive no ex. tension from such repeal.
 ResolUed, That in the organization of the American order, the institution of involuntary servitude was, and now is regarded as local and not national in its character a subject fol the toleration of difference of opinion by the citizens of the northern and southern States and as such has nc rghtful place in the plat form of the national American party.
 Next come the New Hampshire resolutions How can southern Know Nothngs endorse their northern brethren in these sentiments?
 Resolved, That we cordially approve th' course of the delegates from this State, who attended the National Council at Philadelphi; in June last, and most heartily sustain their ac ton in severing their connection with the pre- sent national organization.
 Resolved, That freedom being national ant slavery sectional, while the latter is left in tn, exercise of all its strictly constitutional rights in the States where 1t now exists its furthe extension and longer connection with the gen eral government should be uncompromisingl, opposed aud resisted and the laws for the ex ecution of its existing privileges be made t conform to the dictates of justice and human ity.
 Resolved, That the question of the extension of slavery as now presented to the country by the repeal of the Missouri prohibition, by thu outrage practiced in Kansas, under the sanction Of the administration, and by the decision of al arbitrary and tyrannical Federal Judge, which if adopted as the judicial doctrine of the gov ernment will make every free State in the Un ion slave territory, is the paramount questio now before the nation, and that we believe tn time has arrived when all who oppose the fur ther encroachment of slavery, and would re store the policy of the fathers of the republic should unite their efforts and cooperate fo that purpose.
 Here is resolution passed by the party i Cincinnati, where seven States were represen ted:
 Resolyed, That the repeal of the Missoul
