every variety Of Throat and Lung Complaint, that
it is entirely unnecessary for us 10 recount the
evidence of its virtues, wherever it has been en-
ployed. As it has long been in constant use
throughout this section, we need not do more than
assure the people its quality is kept up to the best
it ever has been, and that it may be relied on TO
do for their relief all it has ever been found to do.

Gents. Il am hardly able to ex-
press my gratitude Tor the benefit which my
daughter has derived from the use of DR..
Motifs Liver Pills. She had been troubled
with what the physician called Liver Com
plant; but our doctor failed to give her any
permanent relief, although she tried his pre-
scriptions effectually. She had become mel
ancholy, unhappy, and her constitution was
much broken down by the use OF Mercury.
She tried DR.. Motifs Liver Pills, and soon
began to get better. l am happy to say that
she has now entirely recovered her health.
Respectfully yours,

The Virginia Convention, by unanimous vote
Yesterday, expressed its preference for the report
of the Committee on Federal Relations, which
will be found in full in our telegraphc dis
patches 1t proposes that Slavery shall be per-
pe.ual in all the territory south of 30 81 now
in possession of the United States, or hereafter
to be acquire6 that shareholders shall have the
right of transit with their slaves through all the
States; that fugitive slaves not given up shall be
paid for; aud that persons of African descent
shall not be allowed to vote or to hold office.
Aud these propositions it is gravely proposed to
Incorporate into the Constitution, never to be
amended or abolished If such are the terms
on which Virginia VIII insist as condition for
remaining in the Union, we hope she will secede
without delay They are too preposterous to be
even considered by the Free States.

READy-MADE UNITY AND THE 80.
CIETY FOR ITS PROMOTION.

1t is pleasant thing for brethren to dwell
together in unity. There is no mistake about it,
The Scriptures say so, and The American So
" ciety for Promoting National Unity" backs up
the Scriptures; so that the thing may be consid.
cred az good as settled especially when we consider
that Samuel and Sidney Morse. Hubbard Winslow,
and Seth Bliss, indorse the Societg, and that, in
30 doing, they approve the Scriptures. Gentle
men aporCus Of unity could not certainly have
done more sensole thing than to begin by
uniting themselves 1t q all very proper. The
Patent Soap has its Company, and so has the
celebrated Paste Blackng-and WHY not Unity
Therefore Mr.. Samuel Morse and his friends
have, as Promoters Of Unity, formed Untary
Unity-not Uuitary Home, for that
the gods forbid mot Unitarian Unity
for that would hardly suit those members whose
names are as yet pubished-but whit We may
call Religious-aod- Political Unity-dsigned, as
We are informed, to make everybody Of one
mind with everybody else upon the subject Of
Sayery-that MUD being also he-Jomnai-of Com
merct mind, the bias Of which is not we pre-.
sumo, uncertain. We are inclined to think that
The American Unity Society has cut out rather
more work for itself than It will be able to ae-
complish during the remainder of the present
Century. 1t is morally impossible for mon to be
united upon this topic. The man who OWN a
slave will never agree with the man who IL
owned There is the first fatal split; and nhe
hundred Morse Societies, working for nine thol-
sand years, could not alter that primal, discour.
aging fact, even though men who do not owa
slaves may now and then agree with slavs-owners
Yet the number of these must be always smaller |
than the number Of those who do not 80 agree. |
People who cannot read Greek, and who have |
not been enlightened upon the Specification of o

Mr.. Douglas in the Senate yesterday, stated
that in his opinion it would be wise for the
President to withdraw the U. S. troops from
Fort Pickeus. We suppose he would recon-
mend also that Key West and the Tortugas
should be given up. Or, perhaps, to settle mat
ters more quickly, and complete the pacfcation
of the country, and the restoration of harmony
that Mr. Lincoln should invite JEFF. Davis to
come to Washington and take the reins of Gov
ernment, and that Gen. Scott should be super
seeded by Gen, Twiggs. Why doesn't be propose
also that the United States shall pay tae ex-
peUses which the Confederate States have IN
Cured by their rebellion If the Great Repub-
lie is TO roll in the mud before traitors, let 1t at
least do it heartily, and not be afraid or ashamed
of a little additional dirt.

In taking joyful leave of the fuDctionaries
who have represented the United States III this
quarter for the last four years, we wish to do
conspicuous justice to one of them, whose con-
duet stauds out in very strong contrast to that
of his compatriots through whose guilty con-
niyance this City has been disgraced by being
made the entrepot and outfittlng port OF the
Slave Trade, whereof the wholesale and shame
less activity during the last few years has known
no parallel for half century. We refer to DR.
Sidney S. Norton, who began, while Collector at
Port Jefferson, L. l., 10 1855 by the seizure of the
yacht Wanderer and has since, as Clearance
Clerk in the Custom House here, caused more
than twenty suspected vessels to be stopped. IL
matters not that the want of faithful cooperation
in other quarters permitted most Of these vessels
to escape: several of them having been at1erward
taken, with their live cargOes on the coast OF
Africa: Mr.. Norton has done his duty so uuex-
ccptonably and conspicuously well, that he de-
serves at least this honorable mention.

NJ One of the Vermont Volunteer Mill
tia writes letter to the Rutland Rerald, in
which he laughs at the idea of Governor
Fairbanks scaling into service the uniform
ed militia, without waiting for the action of
the Legislature" He says the state troops
are in no condition to be put into active SER
vice. In the whole organization there are
not 500 muskets fit for use, and not single
complete piece of ordnance. In the first reg
iment there are two companies that have nei-
Their muskets, swords, cartridge boxes, or
belts and there is not company in the
state that possesses an overcoat, fatigue,jack-
ct or blanket. The writer thinks that troops
with such an outfit would make a sorry figure
in the field against Southern chivalry. The
state pays to part of these companies So
per man annually. Field and staff officers
get nothing. In view of these facts the cor
respondent calls upon the Executive to i'm
mediately call session Of the Legislature
that it may appropriate fifty OR one hundred
thousand dollars to equip and put on war
footing the Volunteer Militia. This is more
sensible than the continual crying of the
Courier and Patriot for an extra session to
repeal our Personal Liberty bills.

generous sentiments as the following, which

these sentiments contain more truth and elo.
quence than dozen ordinary speeches in
