what Constitutes q. Democrat.

AT a recent Buchanan Convention i'll
Illinois, Mr.. Bonney defined n true
Democrat rs follows:
"It is chal acterisLlc of a good Demo-
crat that he is rs perfect in obedience as lie
is absolute in cOnaue0nd. While he is q
private i'll the ranks, he feels it to be his
duty to 06Oy TIE LeIeStS Cfhis purity; when
he is promoted TO leadership he exacts
implicit obedience to the authority which
has been vested in him.
Then good Democrat is an OK or ass,
or any other beast of burden. Could
servility so further? To be n Democrat
according to this man Bonney is to be a
slave, to abandon all right Of opinion or
speech, to truckle to any one whom acci-
dent may have made leader to go in
chains and kiss the links that bind him.
But hear Mr.. Bonney little further:
when we elected James buchanan
President Of the United States, we also al
the same time elected him President 0fthc
Democratic pOrty; and he, together with
his Cabinet, the Democratic Senator's and
Representatives in Congress, are tribunals
which the party itself set up in 1856. Il
declare aOkdt are Democratic T1iedSureS.'
Mr.. B. has the merit of frankness- Hc
speaks out squarely that doctrine which
others like him handle more softly. Mr.
Buchanan and his party are not merely ex
ecutive officers, but sources of opinion
The White House is a Vatican and its oc
cupant the Vicegerent of Democracy, au
Lhorized To speak er cGthe0lr0 while ever
trembling slave obeys.-B.faIO CODs.

Coon AcTIoHs.--God never accepts a
good inclination instead of n good action,

much the contrary, that if a good inclina-

The tide Of migration again sets west
ward with the open Spring. Besides those
who rush towards sunset III the thunder
inc tIain, the green borders of the great
wagon roads are nightly lighted by the
campfire Of the home hunter, The can
vass- covered labor on, and the faxen heads
of "comiLg men" are put out between the
tawney curtains, TO see the wonders by the
way.
When one thinks of it, it is towards the
West at the West, in the West, that the
hopes Of half the world are starving. The
East is associated in the thought, with
very old ruins, and very ancient graves,
and very many yesterdays. But the West
is vigorous and young-how glorious its
rivers, how full Of blue and beautiful to-
morrows.
So thinking, thousands hurry over the
old worn thresholds of the East, and leave
the friends they were born with, and SET
their faces to the West, and depart. Ihe
sun is to them like the pillar Of fire to the
Israeltes it goes over the route they are
taking every day, and sets every night In
the West they are nearing-preclseiy
" here they are going. The West How
can they help knowing exactly where II
lies Isn't it just beyond that golden
cloud they almost see low down III the
horizon-a little to the left of that crimson
one, that looks, for all the world like
caste-in the air :? Don't they under
stand very well, that the evening star
shines over their homes that is to be, by
that river whose waters are like silver, and
whose murmurs are nothing but music
where there never is any sickness, and nc
use at all for grave
On they come. They reach Michigan,
but Michigan is eastward of Sunset. They
reach Chicago, but Chicago is portal
and the West is only a VeTy little way
beyond. On they go-by this route and
that route and route of their own. There
can be no mistake, for the sun Is not
blunderer. We are told there are graves
this side of the West, but such is not the
land they are seeking. Those MagellaniC
clouds-will they ever reach them, or If
itindeed true, that for great hopes as fo
dying days and gathering shadows, there
is such a place rs the West Of the heart
not land down on the earthly charts, blu
just beyond the cloud
There, then, after all, is the true Pacific
-in the heart, and exactly i'll the hear
where gather all the mourning hopes, ant
glores of the soul in its beautiful West
There the golden clouds are there tin
crimson castles rise upon fields OF azure
there nobody dies and hence no travele
returns.
But then these pioneers who seek tn
West, like those who sought of old tn
Philosophers Stone, will bring to liSh
new treasures, and new wonders in the re
sources of our great Republic. They will
lay the foundations of homes that othe
men may complete /; turn the furrow TO
harvests that some other men may garner
How they come ! How they go !

Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer large part Of
the globe, is the consequence of diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm Of
vegetable decay. This cxhalation is evolved by
the action of solar heat wet soil, and rises with
the watery vapOr from it. While the sun Is below
the horizon this vapor fingers near the earth sur
face and the virus is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood There it acts an irritating
poison on the internal viscera and excreng organs
Of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the
stomach sympathise with the liver, and become
disordered also. Finally, the instinct Of our Or
Ransm, as IL in an attempt to expel the noxlo9s
infusion, concentrates the whole blood OF the body
in the internal excretorcs to force them to cast 1t
out The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to
the central organs with congestive violence: This
Is the CHILL. But in this effort IL fails. Then the
FEVER follows, in which tho blood leaves the cen
trail organs and rushes TO the surface, as II IN
another effort to expel the irritating poison
that other great excretory-the skin. In TINS
also it fails and the system abandons the attempt
exhausted, and waits for the recovery OF strength
to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These
are the fits or paroxysms of FEVER AND AGuR
Such constitutional disorder will OF course under
mine the health lift is not removed
We have labOred to fnd. and have found, an
aufid0fe.

which neutralizes this malarious poison in the

It from the system is absorbed and thus keeps
those who use it free from its attacks keeps the
system in health although exposed to the disease.
Consequently it not only cures but protects from,
the great variety Of affections which are induced
by this malignant influence, such as Remittent
Fever. Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague,
Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious
Fevers, Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout, Blindness,
Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita-

Stomach and Bowels, all of which, when arising
from this cause, will be found to assume more or
less the intermittent type. This "AoUE CURE |"
removes tho Of those arrangements, and cures
the disease. -
This it accomplishes by stimulating the excre:
tories to expel the virus from the system; and
these organs by degrees become habited to do this
their office of their accord. Hence arises what

reason to believe this is n surer well as safer
