Eclectic Pills!
MT IRELY VEGETABLE
A FAMILY MEDICINE.
These P'Ks are Unequalled by any Medi-
cine k'aoacn for Curing Diseases ariis-
ing from Deranged Liiver.

As a remedy for many of the diseases pecu-
liar to the West, the Eclectic Pills have no
equal; such as Bilious Disease, for cleansing
the system generally--in Chills, Fever and
Ague--to act on the Liver and Secretions-
cure Dyspepsia, Sick Headache, Jaunaice, AZ
fections of the Kidneys, and diseases of the
Blood--cure Costiveness, &c. They cleanse
the Stomach and Bowels, operate specifically
upon the Liver and Secretions, give tone to the
Digestive organs and establish a healthy ae-s
tion in the whole system. Thus not only re-
moving present diseases. but preparing the sys-
tenn to resist future attacks of the same.
These Pills have been hefore the public about
four years, and they have acquired a reputation
for the cure of LIVER COMPLAINTS--as well
as other diseases for which they are recon-
mendei-which has never been equalled by
any remedy, heretofore offered to the publis
in the same length of time.

The Lowell Daily ,Iournal,-by no means
Journal in the American ranks, thus speaks,
with foresight and truthfulness
Several of the Boston newspaper writers
and Boston correspondents Of the New York
journals have been trying to convince the
world ever since the nomination of Mr. Fill
more at Philadelphia that he cannot ever be-
gin to go-that he stands no sort Of chance of
carrying the electoral vote of Massachusetts,
-thatln the expressive language of the South
= he is a dead cock in e pit" TO start with.
The wish OF these writers and correspondents
is evidently father TO the thought. They
would ieign have it that Mr.. Fillmore is an
unlikely candidate to run and so they pertin-
acioualy decry his prospects. Per CONTRA we
venture the assertion, that there is not an in
telIigent politician in the State who does not
in his heart believe that if Mr. Willard Fill
more IS IN the field next November, and moth
ing remarkable turns up to effect a radical
change IN the sentiment Of this Commonwealth
that he is sure Of its electoral Uote as the sun
as to rise during tie mouth IN a0ticA At qgiH be
given to HIN. Fillmore is popular man in
this State and has been ever since he was first
brought co ispicuousy before the country
There is no presidential candidate likely to be
put in nomination who can compete wi him
in popularity here, who can begin to run with
him, and those who talk and write to the con-
trary are simply talking and writing Josh
Further than this, we have reason to believe
that the Philadelphia nomination is gradually
increasing in popularity, with the lapse Of
every day and week, throughout the country
at large. The more thi, nom nation is dis
cussed, the better ii is liked 1t is now gen.
orally conceded that the only nominal on that
has chance of success against it, will be the
nomination to be made at Cincinnati in June

Tho Democrat so far hits the facts of the case
in this paragraph, as to throw the Sentinel in
terrible rage. The Sentinel turns around,
and squirts dirty water at poor Hicks very
spitefully, and in the end thinks that no Old
Line editor who like Hicks has opposed Bright
as the Democratic candidate for the Presiden-
tial nomination, has right to insinuate the
Sentinel amt well edited. The Sentinel has
been dismally sleepy and stupid lately, but we
are sure it is no fault of the editors-only their
misfortune.

Walker Wlthdrawn-New Candidate for Lisut.
Goyernor-Great Triumph OF Fusion!

The Old Line State Central Committee had
a laborous session at the Capitol on Monday
and Thursday, to take into consideration the
infantile years of Col. John G. Walker, candI-
date for Lieut. Governor. The gallant COL
was tremendous wrathy, and gave utterance
to divers impertinences, aud valorous threats.
Throughout Wednesday he was exceedingly

subdued grounded the arms Of rebellion,
caved in, and If we may believe the Sentinel,
in the most sweet and gracious manner, iii
rounded periods and melting cadences, declin-
ed the candidacy. Thereupon the Committee
proceeded by the ballot to fill the lncy from
the candidates present, to wit Scion Truman,
Robert Lowry and Judge Hammond, old line
Wing.
For a while it was nip and tuck between
Hammond and Lowry each rec living four
votes, and thurman one vote But final bal
lot Late Doveln, of Cambridge City, went
over to Hammond, who was thereupon declar-
ed to be duly nominated. And so Lowry and
thurman, who have spent and been spent in
the service of the Old Line Democracy, who
kept the Old Line faith in all its shiftings and
turnings, in its purity and its impurity, were
floored, whipped and Skunked-not by a mem
Der Of their own party, not by one who had
stood shoulder to shoulder with them, but by
an OLD LINE Wig. The Simon pure, i'm

OfJudge Hammond we know but little,
except that he has always been Whig-was
a Wing Judge of one horse Court in Marion
County, and a Wing candidate for the Legis-

lawyer, good looking man, anu the best po-
ker player in the State. He has cleaned out
many ''spoony,'' as some of our Wabash
friends can testify John H. Robinson tried
hard to beat him in the DEAL but the Judges
