NUREKA SILVER POLISH.-It
Ia has long been considered a desideratum to
obtain mixture that will remove the tarnsh
produced by the atmosphere or gaseous exhala-
tions, without affecting the metal itself. Prep
ara,ions of this kind are generally acids, which
not only remove the stains, but attack also the
metals, thereby destroying the fine polish, and
are, therefore, highly objectionable
Such preparation can be obtained, without
nny of the objections above named, in the EU-
REKA SILVER POLISH, for removing the
tarnish and stains from Silver, Brass, Copper, or
other metals, and which is warranted to contain
no acid or other substance, in the slightest de-
gree injurious to the finest Silverware. For Sale

rru. statesman.hin.

The Washington correspondent of the Phila-
dephia Press, in abiding to the proposed speech
speech of Mr. SEWARD, since delivered, and ex-
pressing the hope that he would suggest some
practical plan for the adjustment of the political
difficulties of the country, even if it did not har
monize with his oft expressed views, refers to an
instance in the career of an English statesman,
justification for such step on the part of the
premier of the new Administration. He says "the
greatest act of Sir ROBERT PEELs life was when
he turned square upon his own record and ac-
cepted the recordof his political opponents for the
sake of serving the masses of Great Britain. He
was bitterly assaiIed by his former partisans, but
his country sustained him. and now, in looking
over his career, nothing in all his experience re-
fleets more honor upon his name. 1t is impossi-
bic for Mr.. SEWARD TO make degrading or
humiliating concession. He has said too much,
and gone too far unsay certain doctrines which he
has laid down. but possessing singular Individuality
and intrepidity, and looking into the future with
prophetic gaze, he may be able TO point out an
original path and at least furnish an Alternative
which may change the present sinking condition
of the country Il is absurd for mere party men
TO complain of others who are looking out for the
best way to keep this Republic together. The
true statesman is that man who attempts to pro-
vide the best remedy to effect this object, and he
is simply quack who deals in absurd impractical
bilities and empty generalties.''

The first gun of the Democracy of the North
west in the present crisis, was fired at Indianap-
oils on the oth of January. The gallant Democ-
racy of Indiana have assumed the position of
vanguard of the Democratic host, andhave nobly
indicated their position by the resolutions they
have adopted. 1t is almost impossible to over
estimate the importance of these resolutions and
the position taken by Indiana. Her geographical
position and the well known loyalty of her people
will give them an immense significance TO the
whole nation.
These resolutions, which we publish in to day S
issue, are such as might be expected from the
brave, patriotic and intelligent Democracy of In
diana. They breathe sentiments which are in the
hearts of every Democrat and every patriot in
the Union. They exhibit deep love of the Union,
a willingness to concede everything reasonable,
for the safety or reconstruction of that Union
they proclaim opposition TO coercion and civil
war; they demand that in the event that the Re
pubcans hurry the country into civil war, a
convention of the State be called to determine on
the course to be pursued. and recommends that
Indiana assumes the position of mediator between
the North and South. This course is both pa
triotic and wise, and Indiana may rest assured
that on the 10th inst, Illinois will nobly respond
to the positions taken.-Chicago Times.
