). The Lift of the Flesh is in the R,ood -

"THe Life Of the Flesh is in the Blood
was said by inspiration long before Haryey's
discovery of its circulation had brought to
light it's purposes and uses. Now we know
not only that " life is in the blood" but that
disease inhabits it also. Many of the disor
ders that pervade the human frame, have their
home in it, thrive and grow in it. The cele-
brated DIR. j. c. Aver, of Lowell, has had re-
gard to this important fact in making rem.
edy to cure these disorders. His extract of
Sarsaparilla purges out the impurities of the
blood and induces healthy action in it that
expels disease. This looks reasonable, and
it is true, for We know by our own experience.
Seldom as we take any medicine, we have
nevertheless several times been under obliga
tions to the skill of DR.. Aver for the relief
which his remedies never fail to afford us
when we are obliged to have recourse to them.

rs-The editor of the Democrat saws he
wasn't going on his knees for union
ticket! As he never favored such ticket
but opposed it from the start, it is difficult
to conceive why he should talk about get
ting on his knees. Perhaps he has seen
the ghost of defeat with his Breckenridge
ticket, and got scared into an acknowledge.
ment that he was little too fast in asking
for member who would give aid and com.
tort to JEFF Davis's crew by opposing the
State administration.

The Libeler of the Democrat Once More

AAS AAOCASA VI VIC dt OILCC
The discharged officeholder down street
continues 10 fret, fume and spit out the
pentup malice of his groveling nature, with
the terocity of a Gagged hyena. Having
late y proved himself in his own paper
talsi1er of the first water, it is hardly ne
cessary to notice his pusillanimous article
OF last week so far as relates to us person
ally. We opine it is something new that
we opposed the Mexican war, and equally
new that we ever opposed temperance
We will therefore pass over his demented
labors with piece of advice which he can
hay to heart He comes back to coun.
ty in the main Union-loving and true to
the country under circumstances which
might we'll make any man Of ordinary sense
cautious as to what he says or does Let
him refer to the files of the Democrat and
he will find that he more than once asser-
ted Secretary Chase was opposed to the
removal of offceholders for political opin-
ions, yet Mr.. Henry Frysinger WAS RE-
MOVED. The course too of his paper had
more of partyism than loyalty in it, and if
he fancies he escaped the condemnation of
many better democrats than he ever was or
ever will be, he is widely mistaken. His
personal defence of that scoundrel Yancy
when nine out of ten of all true hearted
men believed that villain to have been
stepped in treason over head and ears-his
toadyism to Cobb and other traitors-his
publication of many articles, both before
and after the war, too we'll calculated to
make his readers cold or callous to a war
purely defensive of every right held dear
by free people, are not get forgotten; and
1t will be better therefore for him to re-
pent of what he has done in poisoning
the minds of voters than in coming false
hoods against one who cares as little for
his billingsgatc as he does for the barking
OF puppy.

This is the third time Mr. Coplin ap-
pears before the people of this county for
the same Office, having been twice defeated
already. His occupation" is so well
known that we need hardly FAY he has
been seller or manufacturer of liquor for
many years, and therefore probably thinks

palladium of American liberty. He is a
devout believer in all the doings of james
Buchanan's administration, sainted the
New York Day Book as long os it lasted,
and considers everybody Black Repub-
lican who dou't believe that slave dealer
has more rights than northern white
man. Besides this, the only notable events
in his life are his temperance letter to Shaw
of the Aurora several years ago, and subse-
quently his correspondence with John W..
Forney of the Philadelphia Press.
r. w PATTON, late I'd Lieutenant of
the Logan Guards, young man whose in
dustry has secured for him an excellent
reputation, is the candidate for county
treasurer. No one disputes his ability to
fill the post creditably, and it is therefore
unnecessary to add anything more, he be-
ing besides well known by many promin-
ent citizens, who will attest his worth as a
a citizen and son. His opponent, Mr.. Sam
pie, left farming last year for the purpose
of keeping tavern in Lewistown, with pro-
badly an eye on the county treasury. The
only public experience he has had that we
know of was as Collector of Oliver town
ship, and this did not speak we'll for his
promptness.
Col. JOHN Mcdowell, Jr., of Armagh,
cool, sound and judicious farmer, is pro-
baby as we'll fitted for the office of Com.
missioner as any man in the county
Those who know him, and most of our cit
izens do, will bear testimony to his worth
as man of sterling integrity, liberal SEN
timents, and unquestioned honesty. Of
his opponent we know but little There is
one of the name in the region where he
resides who sometimes deals in " horses"
but whether the same man we cannot say.

Letter from Richmond.

RICHMOND, Aug. 2lst., 1861.
Dear Father and M0ther:-
| presume you have received the letters
wrote you previous to this time. | have moth
ing new to write as we are in the same posi-
ton that we were month since. My health
is very good. The weather here is warm,
but as have not been exposed to the sun for
weeks suppose it would be pretty hard on
me if were to turn out. / reckon Boyd has
returned home a month since. l have not
heard anything Of Capt. Hess since | was ta-
ken. | am afraid my interests Wi ! suffer by
continued absence. If you see Hess tell him
my mind remains unchanged with regard to
the fault of US being captured. | charge it
to the officer of the regular Army, who was
with US. He sent me word that the cavalry
were our own men, and consequently | made
no effort to get back to the column, until they
were within ten rods Of us and commenced
firing on US; /; We then fired and retreated, but
being in an open field, forty rods from the
road, we managed to get out there, when we
were met by another party who headed US off.
| had only twelve men with me, while the cav
airy were one hundred, not including the par
ty that attacked the Captains men. There
were none of my men hurt. They are all
here and all are well. l am very comforta-
ble and am in hopes the Government will do
something soon to relieve US. You need not
be uneasy about me the only trouble is the
loss of my baggage.

The news of the reported escape of Jno. z.
Breckenridge from Frankfort, to formally JOIN
the conspirators, will be received by the pub
lie without surprise. He has slowly passed
through all the grades of the crime of treason
againsthis country, until finally, if this rumor
be true, he is, we suppose, about to reach the
eliminating point, by either placing himself
at the head of body of troops organized to
war against the State and Nation which have
showered honors upon him, or by giving all
the aid in his power, in civil capacity, to
those who direct the military movements OF
our enemies. The fimsy veil OF neutrality,
and the guise of mere political hostility to the
Administration, are now entirely thrown
aside, and in the contest, which has been mar
rowed down to strife between patriots and
traitors. he has openly taken his stand where
his sympathies naturally lead him-with the
foes of his country.
General Anderson's Proclamation.
LOUISVILLE, Sept 2l.-The following pa,
triouc proclamation has just been issued by
General Anderson:
- hc1IucfGuHS:
Called by the Legislature of this my na-
tive State, l hereby assume command of this
department.
Il come to enforce and not to make laws,
and God willing, to protect your property and
your lives.
1.-The enemies of the country have dared
to invade our soil. Kentucky is in danger.
She has vainly striVen TO keep peace with
her neighbors. Our State is now invaded by
those who professed to be her friends, but
who now seek to conquer her. No true son
of Kentucky can longer hesitate as to his
duty to his State and country. The invaders
must, and God willing will be expelled.
Z" The leader of the hostile forces who now
approaches is, / regret to say Kentuckian,
making war on Kentucky and Kentuckians.
Let all past differences of opinion be
overlooked. Every one who now rallies to
the support of our Union and Of our State is
friend. Rally, then, my countrymen,
around the flag our fathers loved, and which
has shielded US so long.
" [ call you to arms for self defence and
for the protection Of all that is dear to a free
man.
Let US trust in God, and do our duty as
did our fathers.

At a meeting of the Union Committee Of
Union county, held at the Buffaloe House,
Lewisburg, Sept II, the following proceed
ings were had:
Whereas, the friends of the Administra
ton of the National Government, in Union
county, have expressed their choice for WIZ.
c. LAWSON, ESQ.,, for President Judge, while
those of Snyder and Mif1in counties have ex
pressed a like preference for SAMUEL S.
Woods, Esq; and whereas, we are satisfied
that both of these gentlemen are worthy and
competent, and are firm friends of the Govern
ment in this time of its trial; /; and whereas,
we recognize the great principle that IN oil
questions of mere personal preferences the
majority should rule-therGfore, we the
Union Standing Committee for Union county
unanimously consent to and advise the ratl
fcation of the nomination of SAMUEL ,.
