EDITOR DEMOCRAT For several weeks
past it has been whispered around our quiet
town that Mr.. R. c., young gentleman Of
this place, and the beautiful Miss K. had be-
come desperately enamored, and the wedding
night appointed The evening arrived when
the happy pair were to be united in hymenial
bonds, A select company had assembled to
witness the ceremony, the priest was in at
tendance and all things ready, when lo!-to
the perfect astonishment Of all present, the
mother of the fair damsel positively refused
to give her consent, and forbid the priest
from uniting the pair.
There's many slip between the cup and the lip
For nearly week the young lady has been

lowed to leave the house but the old adage

was truly verified in this case. A stratagem
was resorted TO, which proved successful. A

ladys mother one evening, and engaged her
attention in playing eucre-which game she
is passionately fond Of Whilst the game was
going on, a deeper one Of a different nature
was playing by the damsel, who played out

but all to no avail not friend offered her
the least assistance to recover the pretty bird,

must have been true saying in the days of
Horace, but it is not so in this enlightened
age. The prompttude with which the sick,
in all parts of the world, have abandoned
the Old palliative mode Of medical treatment,

way proves that the people can distinguish
between mere suppression and radical cure,
and that neither the prestige of professional
position, nor the sententious dogmatism OF
the ritualists of the schools, can blind them
to the wonderful results of new practice,
which never makes the mistake ofkilling the
patient instead of the disease. In the United
States as in all other regions of the earth,
lollowoy's remedies have popularizcd them
selves. 1t is true that the victims of disease
have been invited through the press to give
them fair trial but it is equally true that
every trial has made new proselytes, and
that every proselyte thus obtained has made

In our crowded cities, where, at certain
seasons, the malaria exhaled by an almost
vertical sum- is the prolific source of deadly
epidemics; in the new settlements of the
West, where fever and ague, dysentery, and
other diseases common to that region, pros

South the Pills have saved the lives of thou

classes and in all sections, indispensable to a
thorough cure. These are facts undenied
and unchallenged, and who will be hardy

TIE IssUE.-Shall the Congress of the Uni
ted States, with majority Of Abolitionists,
be the guardian of slave property in the ter
ritories-or shall our rights in slave proper
ty be protected there by the courts of the
country, and the peoples own laws? That
is the question. Mr.. Douglas takes the latter
position. Mr. Breckenridge the former.
And if the people of the northern terri
tories, want no neg oes, is it right for Con-
gress to force it on them? And if the people
Of the southern territories do want negroes, is
it fair for Congress to say they shall not
have them? Can Congress establish, or
abolish, slavery in the territories? The Dred
Scott decision says, Congress cannot abolish
it, and Mr.. Breckenridge says if Congress can
establish, it can abolish it, just see how
