John &. Breckenridge for Gem
erai Taylor i'm Is8S.

Boiling is no new thing to John c.
Breckenridge, In 1S4S he favored the
election Of General Taylor in preference
to General Cass, the regular Democratic
nominee. Its useless to draw a parei,el
between his bolt now and that Of Martin
Van Buren, in 1848, because he agreed
with Van Buren then in his opposition
TO Cass and Butler. This is a matter Of
official record, and cannot he disputed
On the 14th Of August, 1847 a public
meeting was held in Lexington, at the
Court. house, Of which Geo. b. Kinkead
was chairman, and Isaac Woodruff Sec
retary. committee Of five was ap-
pointed to draft resolutions, as follows:
"F X. Hunt, John &. Breckenridge,
L. X. Sayre, Esqs., Captain Henry John
son and Colonel s. D. Mccullough"
The committee retired and brought in a
series Of resolutions, and among them
were the following:
"Resolved, That this meeting deplores
and disapproves the excess Of party feel
ing and violence which have separated
the people Of the United States, and that
they believe that the true interest Of the
country will be promoted By ele0dting Il
tie Presidency man who shall feel him
Seifto be tie President t'he ~Loie people
and nat Of n party-"Uho aciH not be M
cnndidate Of any party, nor lend h'mseI
10 opy party schemes"
/ Resolgea, That this meeting, assemble,
without distinction ofparty, DO nominate
General Zachary Taylor to be the next
President Of the United States, and rec
ommead similar nominations by hi,
/ friends throughout the State Of Kentucky
y committee was appointed to drat
an address favorable to General Taylor
and second on the list to do it appear
the name of John c. Breckenridge.
On the 18th af September anothe
Taylor meeting was held in Lexington to
listen to the address Of the Breckenridge
committee The address concluded i'll
the following style:
"Fellow citizens. we call upon you to
break the bands which have bound You,
which have made you forget the country
for your party, and the good of the nation
for the success of your leaders. Call to
mind that You are brethren, with com
mon country and common destiny
That destiny is at your bidding. Rally
to your place, beneath the standard Of the
only man in the Union who has dared to
declare himself independent Of politicians
and factions, ond acho refuses the highest
office in the uorld, ercept at your hands. "
GEORGE p. KINKEAD,
"HENRY JOHNSON,
"SAM'L. d. MCCULLOUGH,
"E. X. SAYRE,
"F. X. HUNT,
JOHN G. BRECKENRIDGE"
The address was unanimously v adopted
and ordered to be published in such well
known Opposition papers as the Louis
vile journal, Frankfort Commonwealth,
ridge was absent from Kentucky when the
/ and Cincinnati Commercial. Brecken'
election took place, otherwise he would
| have voted for TAYLOR and Fillmore in
opposition to Cass and Butler. Mr.
Breckenridge is young in years but he Is
old enough to have political record-a
record which no Democrat can lndorse

DIR. BRONSON, having been SO far reduced by
consumption, as to be considered beyond all hope
of recovery by the most eminent Of the medical
profession, and also by himself-a regular physi-
,cian of twenty years PRACTICES a last resort,
conceived the idea of ANALYZING the BLOOD,
and applying the subject of physiology to the
more immediate connection, and effect of the state
of the blood upon the health and system. The
result has been the production of this "BL00D
FOOD" from the use of which. DIR. Bronson was
restored to perfect health. Within six months af-
ter its introduction, over two thousand consump-
tives were efectually cured by it. If you have
any complaints of q consumptive tendency
Cough, cold, head ache, palpitation Of the heart,
loss of appetite, OF pain in the side, lose no time in
procuring a bottle Of the "BL00D FOOD" If
you are entering from Nervous Debility, or your
sleep is broken and disturbed, if your Spirits are
Depressed or your Organs RELAXED, you will find
in this an unfailing remedy, by commencing with
ten drops. If your Liver is torpid or diseased in
any manner whatever, one or tpo bottles will be
sure to invigorate, and bring it into, lively and
healthful action. In the most inyeterate cases Of
Dyspepeia, the patient can here find the mos
efficient and grateful relief. A benefit is Away
experienced after taking only one bottle. II
male or female complaints and weakness the suf
ferer, after trying other remedies in vain, ma,
rest assured, that o certain cure will result frop
the use of two or three bottles. The "BLo0I
FOOD is effectual in all cases of Eruptions, Sal
Rheum, Scrofulas and other like complaints. Pal
and emaciated children and adults are immedi
ateiy benefited by its use. 1t gives strength t
the body and color and beauty to the skin. Ply
sicians Of all schools are using it with wonderfr

II was my painful duty to perform the
funeral services of . little boy q few Sabbaths
since. The sermon was preached in the
house Of the family, where everything indi-
Gated extreme poverty. There was scarcely
n chair owned by the family, and the little
corpse was laid out in its ~winding4sheet upon
. part of a goods box. When the sorrow
smitten mother impressed the last kiss upon
the cold cheek other little boy, every heart
was touched with sympathy-eyery eye was
bedewed with tears.
But there was another circumstance which
moved more deeply the beholders than the
manifestation Of sincere grief or the eviden-
ces Of squalid poverty. II was the conduct
Of q drunken father over the remains of his
" son. When the mother was wiping the
death-sxeat from the brow of her child, and
watching its last gasping, the husband snd
father threatened to beat her If she did not
leave the child and get his jug Of liquor -
His conduct need not be described, for it was
such as horrifed every one present. Shame
full in the extreme was his conduct at the
gravel He thanked God that the child was
dead, and said that If they did not give him
liquor, some more would be put out of the
way. Never did we expect to witness such
sspectacle, and may God spare us from ever

What produced this poverty and shameful
conduct2 Perhaps It would be wise not to
mention, lest We should startle some who call
themselves Christians, but yet habitually sell
anddrink the article. Oh, how loving, tender,
Christ-like, the heart OF him who, knowingly
and constantly, furnishes liquor to men, pro

n consists Of a SQUARE wooden frame with a pair
Of shafts for q horse or mule, and 6 pair Of han

for making the furrow, behind which Is q c5iin-

The cylinder is turned by the two wheels which
the machine moves upon, thereby avoiding al
bands, cog-gearing and other attachments which
are very Objectionable in machines worked anu
managed by negroes. Il is very light and easily
drawn by one mule. The hopper, is large and
will hold over a bushel Of seed, and it may be made
larger if required. It can be regulated to plant
from l to 4 bushels to an acre. A mule and hand

perfect in all its arrangements.
We shah mauufacture these machines out of the
best materials. both wood and iron, and have
lessened their weight full 80 pounds, making it in

So great was the demand for this machine in tn
