Intermittent Fever. or Fever and Ague,

for the whole class 81 diseases orisinat-
AA3 I'm hillary dera gement CAUSED by
tAe Malaria Of Maesmatic Countries.
We are enabled here to offer the community
remedy which, while il cures the above complaints
with certainty, is still perfectly harmless in any
quantity. such 4 remedy is invaluable in districts
where these affecting disorders prevail. This
.GNRE eapels the nasmatic poison Of FEVER
AND AauE from the system, and prevents the de-
veiopment OF the disease, if taken the first APP
preach of its premonitory symptoms. Itis not only
the best remedy ever yet discovered for this class
of complaints, but also the cheapest. The large
quantity supply for dollar brings il within the
reach of every body; and in bilious districts, where
FEVER AND A0uE prevails, every body should
have il and il freely both for cure and protec-
ton. A great superiority If this remedy over any
1ss:r1r-s~red far tbs sneedv and certain
cure OF lntermittcnts il that it contains Qninine
mineral, consequently il produces no quinisln
other injurious effects whatever upon the consttu
ton. Those cured by it are left as healthy rs il
they had never had the disease.
Fever and Ague lis not alone the consequence OF
the miasmatic poison. great variety of disor-
! ders arise from Ns irritation, among which are
Neuralgia Rheumatism, G0,a, Headache, Blind
ness, 1oothoche. Eayache, Catayvh, asthma, Pal
pitation. Painful 4fection Of the Spleen, Hyster-
res, PAIN an the Bo.ceks, Colo, Paralysis and De-
yungessent n the Stomach, all of which, when
originating ID this cause, put on the intermittent
type, or become periodical. This Cure" expels
the poison from the blood, and consequently cures
them al alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to
immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily
reading in the malarous districts. IL taken occa-
sionally daily while exposed 70 the infection,
that will be excreted from the system, and cannot
accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into dis
ease. Hence 10 rs even more valuable for protec-
ton than cure, and few will suffer from Inter-
mttents il they avail themselves Of the protection
this remedy affords.

is 81, whose appropriate garrison in war
would require 26,420. Their actual garrison
is ouiyl ,334 men, ofall whom arein forts At
Govbrucrs Island, New York Fort McHenry.
Markland Fort Monroe, Va, and San Fran
cisco, Galifornis. The Committee conclude
the regular military force Of the United
States totally inadequate to the protection oi
the forts, arsenals, and other property Of the
United States, in the present disturbed condi-
tlOn Of the country. fes
The regular army numbers only eighteen
thousand men when mustered 10 its maxami-
mum strength, and all this force is required
upon our extended frontier, for protection
against Indian depredatlons. Unless it is the
intention Of Congress that Forts belonging to
the United States Government shall be ex-
posed 10 capture by any lawlass bands dis
posed to commit spoliadon upon them, the
President must be armed with additional force
for their protection and the Committee there
fore report the above bill,
After much fllibustsring from the South
ern side, the bill passed by yeas llO, nays 81.
The following Northern members voted
against il; Cox, Yallandigham and Howard,
OF Ohio; Clark, Coehrane, Sckles and Maclay,
Of New York; Bpreh and Scott, California;
English and Niblack, of Indiana; Robinson,
Fouke, Logan and Morris, Of Illinois; Flor
ence, of Pennsylvania; Larabee, of Wiscon-
SIM and Stout, Of Oregon; all Democrats.--
Allen, Ohio, Democrat voted for it. So did
all the Republican members without excep-
lion The only Southern members voting for
the bill, were Davis, Of Maryland, and
Etheridge, Of Tennessee,
Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1861-02-20

In yesterday Leaders We quoted the
remarks of a prominent Donooratic politician
Of this city, When be said things were
working rigkt" and ihattbs Secession move
nent was So brilliant stroke ofpolicy on the
par, ofths Southern democTuCy' TO compel
the Republicans to come over to her
maphodite DOugla'-Breckiuridge platform.
In confirmation Of this statement, we copy
the following remarks ofthe Baltimore Clipper
a paper published at The Metropolis Of the
South;
~If The border States Of the South should
apree 70 q settlement, the gulf States will be
compelled TO accede 70 it They cannot hold
out bv themselves. They expect that such
arrangements viii be made ss viii enable
them 10 come back into the Union. But
they want Democratic success, The ,ohois
faiHq ;s simply Democratic party psoveaenL
The anti Democrats Of the seeding States
have been treated as seTfs and slaves. They
have been allowed no voice. Even the
Douglas Democrats were coldly treated, until
il was found necessary TO conciliate Alex
Stephens or lose Georgia. Even as it is IL
is not altogether sure that Georgia will sub
nit TO the Southern coercionists. She does
not want togo out Of the Union" .-'-
There is however, one peculiarity about
the whole movement that should arrest pub
lie attention. Il is emphatically a Demo
cratic movement Il IS attended 70 RUN or
rule tks eouniFv. Ifthe anti-RepubhcaR SEN
timent of the North can be concentrated in
the Democratic party, all viii be considered
well with these seeding States. Tit should
not, the leaders Of the movement will try to
bold them to separate confederation. This
fact is worthy OF the consideration Of North
ern men," r<fa
Senator Green, Of Missouri, in late speech
in the Senate, let the cat out Of the bag, and
confirms the statement Of the Clipper. He
denounced the recent action Of Virginia and
Tennessee and said if they and the other
border States had gone with the gulf States
in the secession movement, they could all
have got Just such terms from the Northern
Doughfces and Commissioners as they chose
to dictate. BE admitted that secession was a
mere political scheme to frighten the Free
States into submission to the Shareholders
programme. But he feared the plan was
frustrated. <A3

this place by express by one Of our citizens.
No sooner was the fact known than it was
determined to offer It as a sacrifice, we sup
pose 70 the Union sentiment of our people,
which was incensed at the intrusion. Ac-
cordinaly quite a crowd collected, and, after
stirring and patriotic addresses from Dr..
Vertrees, r. B. Evans, and Others, all of
whom doomed out eloquently in favor Of
