~ The following Is an extract from the
remarks OF James Madisoi in the Consti-
tutional Convention in relation to the idea
Of Estate Sovereignty" It will be seen
that be denies that the States were sovcr-
eign even under the Confederation. As he
was one Of the Democratic Presidents, he
ought to be good authority. ! II the States
were not sovereign under The Confedera-
ton, how can they be under the Constitu-
ton, In favor Of which Madison was argu-
ing when he made these remarks. His
statement that tho states are only great
corporations, having the power of making
! bylaws, Is exactly the fact. They have no
more sovereignty, In National sense,
than has city or other public corporation.

FAST LIFE AND SWIFT DECAY.

The times in which we live TEEN with won
ders. Nothing seems impossible; for the i'm
possibilities of one year become the common
place events of the next. lightning presses
instantaneous communication between the
most distant points, and innumerable inven-
tions for COMPRISING vast amounts of busi-
ness into small spaces of time, and for cur
failing the processes of production and man-
ufactUre, are among the marvels of this mar
velous era. Uuder such circumstances, we
n ay truly be said to live "fast life.'' But
whethea the whirl and rush by which we are
borne along is really conducive to our happi-
ness is another question.
Certain it is, that the average duration of
human life is decreasing i'll the midst of this
excitement. The modern phases of disease
seem to puzzle ana battle the faculty, and with
two remarkable exceptions, viz, HoLLowAY's s
PILLS and HoLLowAY's OINTMENT no medicines
appear to make the desired impression upon
internal or external disorders. These tw o
, celebrated remedies are said, however, TO be
| accomplishing the most wonderful cures
throughout the length and breadth of oul
land. Liver complaint and diseases of the
stomach and bowels which in majority o.
cases are produced by over-exertion and ove
excitement in business, yield 20 the Pill
when all the resources of the druggist ant
apothecary have failed, and eruptive an'
scrofulons complaints seem to be eaquall,
under the control of the Ointment. We Con
gratulate DIR. HOLLOWAY on the signal success
of his great medicines in this country. Fror
what we know of the man. we have no douh
that the profits derived from that success wi
afford him far les satisfaction than the kno'
ledge of the good his remedies have effected
