OF all the various ills that detract from the en-
joyment of human life, most of them may be traced

The horrors of Epilepsy, or Falling Sickness, arises
in most cases from this cause. Our readers may

fully satisfied that these Pills have cured some of
the most stubborn cases of Epilepsy, as W ell as the
milder forms of Fits, such as severe Cramps
Spasms, &c. We now record the fact, that Per-
sons will find these Pills equally efncacious in
curing every form ofnervous debility no mater
whether manifested "a the acute and excruciating
form of Neuralgia; Tic-Coloreux,o OF Nervous Head

seemed to vie with each other In express
ing their admiration for James Blu
chanan, their beloved citizen, the patri-
OF and statesman, and John G. Breckin-
ridge, Kentucky's accomplished and
gallant son.
The people were out en- maaSSc, and
the hearts of the Democracy of old Lam
caster responded with mighty emphasis
to the sentiments of their brethren
throughout the Union. Delegations from
al parts of the county, and from Ches-
ter and DauphiD, accompanied by bands
of music, came pouring in, greeted with
loud shouts ofwelcome from the excited
multitude. Democrats and Whigs-nay,
even the ladies of our city participa-
ted in giving vent to expressions of de-
light and gratitude in a word, all Lam
caster County appreciates the honor
conferred upon her cherished and distin-
guishcd son, by the sisters of our Con-
federacy, and will show her appreciation
by voting, with unprecedented unanimi-
ty, for the standard bearers selected as
theEguardians of our country's rights,
and the chmpions of her perpetuity."
A delegation of some four or five hun
dred from Columbia and Marietta arriv-
ed about two o'clock, accompanied by
the Worth Infantry Band, of york, which
diSeoursed most excellent music. The
delegation was composed Of a fue look
ing body of men, marshaled by the gal
liant old Democrat, George Wolf, Esq,
of Columbia. Each member of the del
egation wore a silk badge, with the names
of Buchanan and Breckenridge inscribed
thereon.
At the same time a delegation from
Parkersburg, Christiana, Gap, Lemon
Place, &C., arrived, numbering about
five hundred of Chester and Lancaster's
hardy IONS of Democracy. They carried
a large flag, and wore badges similar to
those of the Columbia delegation. Both
these delegations we're met at the rail-
road depot by a large number of our
citizens, and escorted to the place of
meeting, with music from Hepting's ex-
%cellent band.

THE MEETING LAST SATURDAY


Last Saturday was a glorious day for
the Democracy of Ashland. Although
a very busy time with the farmers, the
attendance was very respectable-in-
deed much larger than we expected it
would be. The meeting numbered q
great many of the old and tried men of
the party, who exhibited a degree of
satisfaction at the happy results of the
labors of the Cincinnati Convention,
which was highly gratifying to all we'll
wishers of the Democratic cause. En-
thusiasm and good feeling characterized
the proceedings of the meeting. Every
man was ready to pledge his hearty sup
port, and gave glowing accounts of the
prospects of the party in his section of
the County. The speeches were unusu-
ally good, and frequently ELECTED rounds
of applause. The resolutions, it will be
seen, are pointed and ~positive-no issue
is lodged, and the crimes of the Black
Republican leaders are charged home
upon them. Their unanimous adoption
is the best evidence that they truly re-
feet the sentiments of the party in this
County. The Democracy may rest as
sured that Ashland County will hereaf-
ter present a bold and decided front to
the enemy. No division of sentiment
exists = the nominees will receive a
hearty support. Set Ashland County
down as good for an old-fashioned Dem
ocratic majority both in October and No
yember.
In conclusion, we cannot refrain from
expressing our high appreciation of the
services Of the Ashland Band. Al
though but recently organized, they per-
formed the most difficult pieces of mu-
sic in q manner highly creditable to
themselves, and was warmly approved
by all present As the Band is largely
Democratic, we commend them to the
favorable consideration of the Democ-
racy in neighboriDg counties.

been so for more than a yearl As a last resort,
as everything else had failed, it was resolved
to try the mixture. We administered it ac-
eording to directions, and wonderful to say, a
perfect cure has been effected. 1 am satisfied
that no medicine equals Carter's Spanish
Mixture - as a purifier of the blood. 1t is ere

1CERTIFICATE.

Several of the undersigned have known
Mr.. Buchanan ever since he first came
to Lancaster, to study law with the late
James Hopkins, and the others for many
years past. we are all convinced that
if, at a public meeting at the Court
House, or any where else in this city,
he had aver used such an expression, or
anything like it, as that which has been
attributed to him By Mr.. Cox, in the
Convention, to-wit: '3hat he had thank
ed his God he had not a drop of Demo
cratic blood in his veins, and if he had
he would let it OUT" some of US would
have heard of it, and it must have be-
come a subject of general conversation
throughout Lancaster. To the best of
GU knowledge it never was mentioned by
any person until the year 1928, imme-
diatcly before Mr.. Buchanan's last cleo
tion to Congress on the Democratic
Jackson ticket. AS this election imme-
diately preceded General Jackson's first
election to the Presidency, lin Novem-
Der, 1925, and as Nj. Buchanan had
been for several years previously his ar
dent and active supporter, he was then
opposed with much zeal and bitterness.
Ever since we first heard this story,
referring back as it did to 1915, we
have always believed, and still believe,
The Ashland union. [volume] (Ashland, Ashland County, Ohio) 1854-1868, 1856-06-25

that it was got up without any founda-
ton in fact, for the purpose of operating
against MI. Buchanan's election to.
Congress in 1923, Indeed. we had new
er supposed that any person acquainted
with his character could believe, that at
any period of life, he would have made
such a declaration as now seems to be
seriously imputed to him.

soon be in successful operation in Lamasco
which will furnish home market for the
