THE DISTINGUISHING GENIUS OF THE AGE.-Nature,
now and then, brings forth such geniuses Newton,
Shakespeare Taeyrand, Milton, Nelson, Napoleon,
Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Luther, Cromwell
and jackson. Their powerful intellects compelled
the world to admire them
The genius of the present age is DISCOVERY. In
the progress of the arts and sciences this age is i'm
measurably superior to any former one. The pre-.
sent century stands pre.eminent for its wonderful
discoveries in the sciences and arts. Among these,
the noble science of Medicine has made greet pro-
gress. PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY has discovered and
prepared remedy for the diseases of man in what
ever cline destiny may have given him birth. We
have in q former article, introduced to our readers
this distinguished physician whose reputation is al
ready engrafted on the worlds history. As Apply
sician, he has copied Nature, and among physicians,
he stands the Acknowledged Emperor. Both in sale
of his medicines, and in the number of patients that
have take them, he is unrvaied. Professor Holloway
has labored to supply the human family with per-
manent remedy for their Diseases to which the aict-
ed NAV have recourse with moral certainty that
they will be cured. There is no disease to which
they will not afford relief His Pills and Ointment,
prepared from selections from the vegetable king
DOM with great care, will drive disease out of the
system. Thousands of the most intelligent minds
Of all nations distinguished in every sphere OF
life-the statesman, phianthrOpist, conquerer, and
those whose highest aim is to do good to their fellow
men, unite E their praises of the remedies discover
ed by Professor Holloway for the removal OF disease
In uniting in this general recommendation OF the
remarkable virtues of Holloway's remedies we only
perform Christian duty, which the press should
never neglect Those who are eminent for the good
they do in the world, have just claim upon the
press for aid in extending the good to the extent OF
their power Therefore, we have determined to ex-
press our opinion that HoLLowAy's PILLS and OINT-
MENr are adapted to the removal of disease and have
restored millions of the sick to health.

Philadelphia Convention of Know Nothings has re.
suited in total failure. There is one thing how
ever, which is palpabe to the most careless observ
er-that the Convention deliberately pretermitted
that famous 18th section, which Southern Know
Nothings have been swearing by vehemently
ever since June last and put in its place something
or nothing as it may be most advantageous to the
party to construe it. Mr. Filmorc's nomination was
doubtless the most respectable one the Convention
could make, but if he can carry more than three
States it will be miracle indeed The nomination
Of Donelson as Vice President renegade Demo-
