Editor Ashland Union /: sn:-As YOU
appear to be laboring with commendable zeal
to keep your readers posted in regard to all
matters affecting their political, social and pc
euniary welfares, permit us to call their atten-
ton to the fact that we have just received the
heaviest stock of Spring and Summer. Goods
that we have ever brought to this market. An
extended enumeration of our stock we deem
altogether unnecessary for the reason that eve
~ one who Will favor US with a call will find it
complete in every department. We would
simply simply say that it embraces articles of
every style, variety and quality of Ladies
Dress Goods, and G~entlemen's Summer Wear,
together with a large assortment of House
Keeping Goods, Q~ueensware, Groceries, DC.
Having changed our mode of doing business,
it will be proper for US to state, for the salts
faction Of our old customers, briefly, our rea-
sors for so doing. Our first great object is to
sell goods CHEAP. To do this we must have the
money to buy our goods cheap. We wish to
avoid the losses of bad debts and long wind
ed " customers 1--WE wish to save the expense
of keeping books and making collections. By
SO doing we can and will sell goods at much.
less DEOuIS lAdu . pOoSIOAS u my ACotb ~
to do list, because we shall have the money
to buy our goods, which will save US 10 per
cent, ; End, because we shall save the expense
of one Clerk ; Sd, we will save 5 per cent. for
making collections, losses by bad debts and
expense of books. All things considered, we
thinkit safe to saythat 1t will make a differ
enee of at least IS per cent. to the consumer.
This being true we think every man, woman
and child who can pay for their goods, will
avail themselves of the advantages of this sys-
tenn. Those who never expect topay for their
goods, of course care but little about the price.
All those whowish to buy goods cheap for rea
dy pay can find a stock of goods which for va
riety, styles and Low prices, has never been
equaled in the County, by calling on their
friends and well-wishers,

Fever and Ague--An Infalible Cure

We defy the world to produce any medicine which
does not contain Quinine, Bark Arsefc, Mercury
or any noxious or deadly compound, to cure this
annoying disease SO lily as Carriers Spanish
Mixture. While It eontaines none of the above
named dangerous articles, yet it possesses a power
in relieving and curing Fever and Ague which
cannot be approached by any ef them separately or
in combination. 1t acts specifically on the Liver,
Purifes the Blood, opens the pores of the Skin, and
assists nature to expel from the system the seeds

Mineral Drugs, which clog and finally destroy the

THE mARTYRDOM OF ANTHONY

Whoever watches the growth of our American
Zion cannot fail Of being impressed with the supe-
riOrity of Southern piety when compared with that
of the North. 1t may be, as Bishop Berkely says,
Westward the Star Of Empire takes its way
but the star of godliness has long been and
still is DETECTING rapidly TO the South. How
ever you may account for it, the fact is un-
questionable, that in correctness and strngency
of religious doctrine the great exemplars of the
time are to be found in that quarter. The more
slaves saint possesses, the more strict and rigid
is bis adherence to the ancient landmarks set up
by the fathers as the boundary stones of faith.
The Southern church is troubled by few of those
controversies, which must grieve our righteous
souls here at the North. With us AndOver looks
upon New Haven as little better than Cambridge,
and Princeton holds upher hands at the back
.lidngs of both. On all hands we are afflicted, as
was Dsyie Deans, dOuce " with right hand ex-
- tremes and left hand defections." But at the
South so far as new doctrines are concerned peace
regns within the fold. No contentious of that
sort disturb the calm that broods over the "sweet
societies of Southern Christians. Unitarian
or Universalst is scarcely known, and is re-
garded with almost as much dread and suspicion
as an AbolitOnist Unless such intruders qualify
themselves for residence (as We must do them the
Justice to say they generally do) by gentle coun-
teuance, extended to those institutions which the
pious Recorder of NewOrleans pronounced when
warning q eolporteur of the Bible Society against
the repetition of the crime Of furnishing thas sedi-
tious work TO the slayes) to be more. precious
than the Gospel itself or by the still more
decided Endorsement of a DR.. Clapp who added
attribute Of the Deity in his celebrated words:
." Here We see God himself acting as dealer in
slaves We SOY, hereto of the above
mentioned descriptions qualify himself for residence
in some such way, hs may find it very uGcOnfOm-
Portable, if not impossible, long TO reside at the
South, as quite number OF item have found to
their cost. There was the Rev. Dir. Motto, for
instance-a native of South Carolina and an in-
driven from Savannah, a few years ago. for
having once said in q ssEnon in Boston th't
the Savior would not he allowed to enter an
American church on equal terms if he had
the complexion he probably wore on eartn; and
who was sent away, too, with that liberaDty aud
generosity characteristic Of the chyalgic South,
without ID DOney enough TO psy his passage. 90

conquered the American National organization

President We hope they will have good time

Power means this move shall do, there ls
danger it may accomplish; that Is, to divide
the North, and secure the triumph of the Pro-
Slavery Democracy again. 1t is quite the same to
the South ard truly quite as bad for Freedom, if
Slavery triumphs whether it be falsely labeled
Americansm or Democracy.
About fifty sincere and earnest Northern men
left the American Convention before these results
were accomplished; but they left behind more
than an equal number of miserable doughfaces, to

the utmost caution has been e1jOined upon the
Governor and the e. mmsnding officers in regard
to the use of this force under any condition Of cir
cumstances 1t is understood here that the Presi-
dent has asked the Southern Senators ahd Repre-

restrain ncursions from Missouri. and that so tar
as they have been consulted no indispostion has
been manifested.
80 far ss the proposed Convention at Topeks
is concerned, the present intention is TO obtain
civil process of arrest against such State officers
as NAV undertake 10 exercise authority. upon the
ground. that they are violating the law of the
Territory in assuming functions to which they have
not been properly elected or which were not legally
delegated to them. If resistance is made TO the
process. then and then only will the military be
called ill., But there is no good reason to sppre-
bend any serious trouble if the precautions which
have been taken on both sides are fairly carried
ont. The Free-State men started messenger on
Wednesday, advising the Delegates to this Con-
yention TO meet organize and adjourn without az
tempting any business whatever, but at the same
time TO put themselves in position to reassemos
for that purpose at any other summons. INDEX.

WASHINGTON, Saturday, Feb. 90, 1856.
The Supreme Court will adjourn next Friday,
and take recess until the first of april. Thus
far. something more than ene-third of the docketed
causes have been disposed Of and. with two
months of service at the extra term in the Spring.
they hope to reduce the Calendar at least one half
of the remaining number. The case in which the
constitutionahty of the Missouri Restriction is in
yolved has been but partially considered in confe,-
ence and it "a now doubtful if the Judgment of tao
Court will De made up finally before the ADJOURN
ment In 40 event will the opinion be delivered
until April Contrary to general expectation there
is now some ground of hope THAI portion of the
Southern wing of this tribunal will recede rom
the position first assumed, and perhaps go 80 Jar

plaintiff. The Courts of Kentucky, LodlslanA,

nu,, -.lv unou her.eF ,Icu. and that any oblig,.

tions contracted through the gratitude OF foreign
sovereigns will disappear under the imperious po-
tica necessity of selfpreservation. She has seen
too, how easily powerful coalition can be formed
to battle all diplomatic maneuvers and subtArfuges.
Taught not to NEEDLE with other peoples affairs,
she NAV live in future on terms OF comfy with the
Europesn States; and proftng by the experience
of his father, the present Car will put no ex-
cessive trust in diplomacy.
On the other hand, the nation aud government
have learned to value at therrue rate the resources
Of the empire The war has stimulated much Of
the intrinsic skill of the people, to supply that of
the English artisans sent out of the country Russia
now comprehends her ways and means, and what
to contract and what to extend. For example, the
want Of good land communications has been Sc
riously felt and led in more than one way to the
disastrous results but as Russia has iron. she can
make railroads to carry stores to distant points in
days where months ars now required. She has
aso discovered that, although shut out during the
usr from foreign commerce, her prosperity is not
DESTROYED. She has thus fully tested the blessings
Of the protective policy which she has for many
xears sustained, and whose fruits are exhibited in
her vast resources She has learned that full inde-
pendence consists in national ability so to diversity
domestic skill and labor as not TO look to foreign
sources for manufacturing and artistic supplies.
Henceforward Russia will be emsncipated from
any control England has essayed over her industry
and maritime affairs. This temporary check will
thus enlarge and vivify her intrinsic resources, in
her fields, mines and workshops.
Even the relations of Russia with the kindred
coreligious populations Of Turkey, will, in the long
run, not be greatly modified by the war. With
the establishment of the protecorate and the direct
interference Of the Western Powers, the various
Christian sects Romanism included, will undoubt-
edy try TO get footing there, but all of them are
repulsive to the faithful of the Greek Church.
The Mussulmans have oppressed the Greek Chris
tians socially, but now the latter may be exposed
to q hateful propaganditn. They will have, more
over. a taste of the combined protectorate. 1t
does not require any gift OF prophecy to toresee
that its action will generate rivalry, disorder, and
hostility. Betwxt the ProtectOrate and the Mos
lem sway, the position of the Greek Church
will hardly be improved. England, of course,
will preach Free trade and keep the Turks in
poverty and degradation for the sake OF her fac
tories. When, with these combined essays, no
smelioration is felt, old relations and affinties
will again act and the kindred and powerful Rus
sia will in all probability have new chance to
secure the Inheritance of dying Islamism.

w Great Britain in regard to enstments of soldiers
10 the United States 10 serve in the British Army.
Gen Coss concuued in the coll for the correspond

He charged that Lord Clsrendon's statements were
utterly contrary to the facts. He thought Great
Britain had palpably violated the neutrality laws
Aher some debate the subject was passed over, and
The Senate resumed the consideration of the Presi-
