LET US REASON TOGETHER.
WHY ARE WE SICK?

It has been the lot Of the human race 10 be
Weighed down by disease and suffering. HOj-
LOWAY'S FILLS are specially adapted to the
relief of the WEAK, the NERVOUS, the DEL
lCATE, and the INFlRA, Of ali chimes, ages,
sexes, and constitutions. Professor Holloway
personally superintenas the manufacture OF his
medicines in the United States, and offers them
to a free AMI enlightened people, IS the best
remedy the world ever saw for the removal CT
disease.
THESE PILLS PURIFY TIE BLOOD.
These famous pills are expressly combined
to operate on the stomach, the liver, the kid
neys. tho lungs, the skim, and the bowels, cor
r%ccting any arrangement IN their functions,
purifying the blood, the very fountain of life,
and thus curing disease In all its forms.
s DYSPEPSIA AND LIVER COMPLAINTS.
Nearly half the human. race have taken
these Pills. 1t has been proved in ali parts OF
toe world, that nothing has been found equal
to them in cases of disorders of the liver, dys-
pepsia, and stomach complaints generally.
They soon give a healthy tone to these organs,
however much deranged, and when all other
means have failed.
GENERAL DEBILITY-ILL HEALTH.
Many of tho most sespotie Governments
have opened their Custom Houses TO the intro
dnction of these Pills, that they may become
the medicine of the masses. Learned Col
ieses admit that this medicine is the best resae-
dy ever known for persons of delicate health,
or where the system has been impaired, rs its
invigorating properties never fail to afford re-

Marshall County Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1855-1859, 1856-06-12

These are the sentiments of the Dem
ocracy of Indiana, and they will maintain
and assert them, Notwithstanding, the eter-
nal clamor of the Abolitionists, that we
are proslavery men, and slavery propagan-
dists. These Abolition slauderers know
the total untruth Of their assertions; they
know that slavery is unpopular among the
citizens of the free States, and they cannot
succeed unless they can deceive and hum
bug the people, and raise fuse issues to
mislcad the Democracy. The pulpit, the
press, the rostrum, are equally industri-
Gus in propagaling and repeating these
base SANDERS, these known falsehoods.-
We may contradict and disprove them an
hundred tines yet they still utter them
and retail them again, whenever and wher-
ever they can find patient listener.
Let our Democratic friends remember,
that nearly all of the means of the Aboli
ton party are exhausted, such rs reasona-
bic argument and candid investigation, and
they are necessarily compelled to re-
sort to mendatious falsehoods and unreas-
enable misrepresentation of the views and
principles of the Democratic party. Re
fer to our State and National platforms and
resolutions take a survey of the princi-
pies we have always proclaimed and acted
upon, and then You will be prepared to
show, at once, the deceitful and bare faced
falSehoods of your calumniators. No Sian
der is too vile, no assumption too arrogant
no falsehood too glazing or stale for their
use. They commit great political sins,
and turn round and charge their own acts
upon the Democracy. y desire seems to
exist, on their part, to abuse the confidence
of the people, and to deal in fiction, rather
than III truth, to such an extent that they
allow themselves 10 proclaim their own in
fanny.
Marshall County Democrat. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1855-1859, 1856-06-12

tered Lawrence and acouainting the peo-
pie whom he met with his business, pro-
ceedcd in a quiet and decorous manner to
arrest several parties against whom he had
warrants He then returned to the camp
outside of the town, where the posse was as
sembled, and discl.arging them, stating
that he had no difficulty in executing his
wrlts
Sheriff Jones then, an officer of the Ter
ritorial government, called on the posse to
aid him, and with sixteen mcn proceeded to
Lawrence. Jones was in a weakly state
from his wound. He told the people his
business in cool and quiet manner, coun-
selling them to obey and respect the law,
and intimatng his determination to do his
duty though he might be killed i'll his tracks
After making some arrests he proceeded to
the hotel kept by Mr.. Eldridge and held an
interview with Gen. Pomeroy, demanding
of that parsonage the public arms, which
the people had employed therein resisting
the lawful authorities it was his right as a
peace officer to take possession of. Pome
roy, as represented by our cores ondent,
conducted himself in most craven and alb
ject manner in the whole transaction, there
by giving the lie to all those pictures ofhis
herosism and proves.
Having obtained possession of the can
non, Jones, under the instruction, it is said
of the Grand Jury, which had presented the
Free State Hotel and the press of the Her
aid Of Freedom as public nuisances, pro-
ceeded to destroy the hotel, after removing
all the furniture out OF it The cannon was
planted in front, and several voliies were
fired into the house. 1t finally caught fire
and was consumed. No other house was
burnt The press of the obnoxious jour
nal was also destroyed and the type remov-
cd:
During these occurrences most Of the
people remained in town, and they were not
molested. The only display of feeling was
on the part ofthe people of Lawrence against
their dastardly leaders, who, after leading
them into their midst, cowardly abandoned
them. They declare that neither Reeder,
Robinson or Lane will ever be permitted to
to come into the Territory. Two of the
men of the Sheriff's party were killed by
accident, one by the falling of brick and
another by an accidental shot Not Il sin
Gle individual in the town was killed or
wounded The most rigid discipline was
enforced among the Sherif's posse and the
severest penalties denounced against any
one who should appropriate any ofthe prop
erty of the people Nothing was stolen.--
Robinson's house was burnt. 1t was the
only one destroyed besides the hotel, and
Mr.. Messenger declares the universal be-
lief that the torch was applied by the citl-
zenS of Lawrence, who were greatly out
ragged by his cowardly abandonment of the
town after he had betrayed it into rebellion.
When our informant left all was peace and
quiet in the town of Lawrence and through
out the country. The people were return
ing to their homes, and if the miserable
demagogues and agtators could be kept
away all would be well
