The New York correspondent of the Ma,
tional Intelligencer says-'It il gratifying
To observe that the united voice of the New
York prcss-a single instance excepted
takes issue with the speeches and resolutions
that came off at "yolks Garden" on Thurs
day evening last. In spite of the prctences
made about expressions which arise from the
religious observance of Sunday, and the tax
ing Of an oath on the New Testament, the
press and the people feel that the yoke OF the
one, if it be yoke. is very easy, and that
The burden of the other. if burden it can
be called, is exceedingly light"

Governor Magoffin, of Kentucky, in his
Inaugural Address, thus alludes to the spas
modic effort which is making in certain quar-
tiers, to revive the African Slave Trade:
Kentucky, calling not in question the mo-
tives or morality Of other sections, is firmly
united in resistance to the re-opening OF the
African slaye-trade. She is stubbornly OPP
posed to the introduction Of any such tests Of
political orthodoxy. She will give no coun
tenance at this time, come from what quarter
it may. to any movement that looks to disso.
luton Of the Union. With seven hundred
miles Of line bordering on free States, we
must think more calmly, and act with more
discretion. The position of Kentucky, ever
loyal, ever true to the Union, is to avoid the
ultraisms Of the South, and the treason and
ianaticism Of the North"

The telegraphic dispatches last week men
toned quite a formidable riot that occurred
on Wednesday night at Manchester, New
Hampshire. The fremen there were hold
ing tournament, or festival, and some trou-
bic took place between them and a gang OF
gamblers. The fremen, thereupon, assem-
bled at night, attacked the premises occu-
pied by the gamblers, and, after hard fight
ing, took possession, ransacked the premi-
ses, and smashed the furniture; two other
houses, supposed to be occupied by gamb-
lers, were also demolished. The mob then
attacked the American Hotel, the windows
Of which were broken and other damage
done. Here they were addressed by several
respectable fremen. who begged them to de-
sist from their work of destruction, which
they were finally induced to do.

Headache, and Bilious Fevers, indeed

No one remedy is louder called for by the
necessities Of the American people than a sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such
we are now enabled to offer, with a perfect
certainty that it will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam

That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be of immense service in the
communities where it prevails. Preuention is

risk which he must run in violent attacks of
this baeful dstemper. This "CURE" expels
the aIasmatic poison of FEVER AND AGUE
from the system and prevents the develop

not orly the best remedy ever yet discovered
for tits class of complaints, but also the

a dollar brings it within the reach of every
body. and in bilious districts, where FEVER
AND AGuE prevails, every body should have it

great superiority of this remedy over any

no Quinine mineral, consequently it pro-

whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
arc Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth-
