our forefathers set us an example by the
punishment of the traitors, and an unre-
served pledge of sour lives, our fortunes,
and our most sacred honor" to the defence
of our libertiesand our country.
ReSolred, That tue free citizens of Mis-
souri,, in reclaiming for themselves and
their posterity the fields of employment
here dedicated to the encouragement of
slavery. do recognise, in the fullest sense,
the irrepresSible character of tho conflict
between free and slavelnbor. and announce
themselves prepared to maintain in that
conflict the cause of free labor.
RcsOkced, That we recognise it rs the
duty of the Government of the United
States to protect the rights Of free inter
course and dumicil between the citizens of
the different States, at home as fully as in
foreign countries, and to maintain in all
respects the equal rights of citizen of all
nativities under the Constitution of the
United States, and are opposed to any
change ofthe naturalization laws.
ReSoiUed, That, rs the ardent friends of
free labor and the development ofthe West
we hail with delight the action of the Re-
publican party in Congress in favor of the
grant of free homestead of one hundred
and sixty acres of the public land to every
person who is of age who shall settle upon
and cultivate the same, knowing that the
primary effects of this measure would be
to attract immigration to the West and to
exclude slavery from the territories.
ReSoIUed, That the construction of ma
tional railroad across the continent to the
Pacific ocean upon the central route, by
way of Pixies Peak is national necessity
and not less than national duty, and we
are in favor of its immediate construction
under the inspection of the General Gov
ernmcnt.

One of the greatest remedies that has
ever been laid before the public, for Fever
and ague, and which have received the
highest cncomiums from the press and the
people, is DR.. j. Hostetter'S Celebrated Bit
feTS. Who would endure the torture aris-
ing from this terrible disease, when it can
be so easily cured? Who would endure
sleepless nights, burning fcvers and icy
chills alternately, when "a remedy can be
obtained for n mere triic? And yet how
many families liuger out painful existence
unller this deadly bligh, and do nothing
but gulp down quinine, until it becomes
as common as their daily meals, and yet
they are not relieved. None but the fool
sh and weak would hesitate to procure
these valuable Bitters, and save themselves
intense agony. Sold by druggists aud
