For the prevention and of Ftrcr ami Aguc
anil Billions Ftrers. This wonderful remedy
brought to the knowledge of the present propret"rs
by friend who has been u great traveller in Persia
and the Holy Land.
While going down the river Eupbrates, he expo
r1enced attack of Fever and Ague. On
discovering his condition, of the Boatnen took
from his person an AmuLct saying, 50 Urar MiS und
Ferer ncW towch yom." Although incredulous
to its virtues; he complied, and experienced imme-
di; te relief and has since always found # etIec-
tual protection from all malarious complaints.
On further investigation he found that the boat
man attributed to it m5r0culOHs powers, and said
tat it could only be ob aimed from the Priests of the
Sun. Sometime afterwards the gentleman in
versing with Priest obtained from him the secret
of its preparation and asccrtaIued where the med-
cinal herbs found, of which it was compound
cd. The wonderful virtues of this article have in
duced full belief III the minds of the natives in
the miraculous healing powers # their Priests.
Since his return to America, it has been tried with
the happiest effect by several Ladies and Gentle
men of high character who have given it the most
unqualified praise. This remedy having been spc-
cfic in Persia for hundreds of years for the preVeh
tion and cure of Fever and Ague and Bilious Fevers
is now offered to the American people.

Comfort for the seceders.

Hon w. w. Boyce, of South Carolina, sup
porter of Breckenridge and Lane has written a
letter on the pending political issues of the day
in which he says South Carolina must secede if
Lincoln be elected Recollect that he and all the
other disunionists supports the Seeeder ticket.
Hear what he says:
eff the Republican party triumph in the Presi-
dental election, our State has no choice but to
Immediately withdraw from the Union. Nor is
this so hazardous undertaking might be
conceived at first sight.
Suppose we have done this. Then only two
courses remain to enemies. First, they must
let us alone; secondly, they must attempt to CO.
cree us. Either alternative will accomplish our
purpose.
| Suppose they let us aone-very good. We
will have free trade with Europe and get along
very we'll in our happy mediocrity far better than
us a degraded satellite of gorgeous system,
whose glories would be for others, whose shame
for US alone. We would not have to pay any
taxes, direct or indirect to Northern abolitionists
that would be some consolation.
Suppose they undertake to coerce us then the
Southern States are compelled to make common
cause with us, and we will wake up some morn.

We learn that Messrs. Rodman and Clingman
both made speeches at Beaufort on Monday. Our
informant says that the crowd to hear them was
small and the speeches in the absence of enthu-
s1asm. rather tame. Clingman did not commit
himself to either Breckinridge or Douglas but
took an uncommittal position, saying he was for
the strongest man, &c. This may carry nm
through the Legislature but we doubt It, The
fact is there IS one who is high IN favor with the
party who has his own eye on Clngmans seat
and if Clingman is not very shrewd in our opin-
ion he will be sacrificed before he is aware of the
scheme We may be mistaken but we think that
is very probable that the Seceders may not have
strength enough to elect their caucus nominee for
the Senate.

GOLDSBORO, aug 2ISt, 1860.
Dear Progress A grog shop, situated IN the
lower part of this county, was burned to the
ground few days since, and man by the name
of Lemon Price. burned up in it. 1t is believed
that Price was known to be very drunk and asleep
in the shop, and that the house was fred on pur-
pose to destroy him. Upon such suspicion, a man
by the name of Joseph Smith and his wife, have
been committed to jail to await their trial at our
next Superior Court. Two witnesses in the case
a man and woman, were also imprisoned for fail
ing to obtain security for their appearance at the
next Court These two Witnesses as soon as
they learned that they were to be held in confne-
ment, concluded to get married; and, procuring
the services of a magistrate, the rites were forth
with solemnized in due form. Henceforth, for
season, they will enjoy uninterrupted, the novel
sweets of the connubial relation.

Listen to NO Offer of Compromise.

The national democratic party who nominated
Douglas and johnson can listen to no offers or
propositions for a compromise from the Seceder
faction without humiliating disregard of that
self-respect which should characterize all men
and especially all great parties. No. let there be
no compromise short of thorough abandonment,
by the friends Of Breckenridge and Lane, of their
disunion ticke. If they will come to the Conven-
ton of the Both as penitents, and pledge them
selves to atone for past sins by Jealous exer-
ton in favor of the regular ticket let them come,
but if they come to dictate and awe the Conven-
ton with the pompous bearing that has
characterized them in other things let them be
kicked out. How dare handful of SectiOnalists
attempt to dictate to and to control the great
tional democratic party? The thing is absurd
and ridiculous, and but few months will only
be necessary to make those leaders now engaged
in this unhallowed war upon the democratic par
ty and the Union curse the day that they first
wandered from the time -honored landmarks of
their party and lifted their voices against the
welfare of their country. The friends of Douglas

LETTER OF GEN. LESLIE COOMBS.

Gen Leslie Coombs, the candidate of the Con-
stitutional Union party, so triumphantly chosen
at the recent election held in the State of Ken
tucky has addressed the following letter to the
editors af the Louisville Journal:
LEXINGTON, August 8, 1860.
Profoundly grateful as am to
Providence and the people for making me the in
strument of political redemption, I ask leave to
say single word to you.
The patriotic National Union Democracy have
cooperated with most manfuy. and we must
hereafter consider them as brethren.
We can all stand on the platform of 1852, recog-
nizing the compromise of 1850 Hereafter go for
the Union, the Constitution. and the Enforcement
of the Laws. There need be no question or crit
icism as to the past, but perfect harmony in COM
batting the common enemy hereafter-i c. both
the sectional parties. I hope the press on both
sides will take this ground. The Yancey-Breck-
inridge Disunonsts have only received their
first rebuke-mild and gentle compared to the flu
ture They are doomed.
take this occasion to thank you for your bold,
able and energetic advocacy of my personal claims
to the confidence of the people
Very truly, your friend,

said, the Prince of Wales only gives the lady his
left hand, and she is not permitted to take his
right it being contrary to the etiquitte due from
