ssTraitOrOus WOrds''..A Signi1l.
cant Test.

In one of the towns of Connecticut, just
previous to our State election, several per-
sons were discussing the measures and can.
didates of parties. The Republicans, one
of whom was the Town CLERK, were bitter
against Gov. Seymour, calling him traitor
and friend of the South, asserting that he
was in favor of the plan of the rebellion,
which was that the people of the South
should govern themselves Independently of
the North. "Well," said Democrat, " do
you oppose sentiments of that kind?" "We
do, no one but traitor will utter senti-
ments of that character" replied the town
clerk. "Let me read them to you," said
the Democrat. have them here, word
for word; when correctly reported, you
mar not feel So bitterly hostile to the words
uttered-they are IS follows:
"Any people, anywhere, being inclined
and having the power, have the right to-
rise up and shake off the eristing government
and form neW one that suits them better.
Nor is this right confined to cases in which
the people Of an existing government may
choose to exercise it. ANY portion Of such
people that can, may revolutionize, and may
make their own Of 80 much of the terrific
ry as they inhabit. More than this, ma
jority of portion of such people may re-
volutionize, putting down minority, inter
mingled with or near about them, who may
oppose their movements."
sit is rank treason" said one Of the Re.
publicaus. sit is Tom Seymour copper
headism," said another, and the man who
uttered those detestable words ought to be
confined in Fort Lafayette and to be fed on
bread and water during the war He is q
traitor"
Tho Democrat laughed, and quietly said,
Gentlemen, ABRAHAM LINCOLN, the
President Of the United States uttered these
words !" .-
"It's lie-Tom Seymour said it-Tom
Seymour is the traitor !" said the Republi-
cans.
"No, gentlemen" cody replied the Dem
ocrat, abraham Lincoln is the author of
the words you now pronounce traitorous
language He uttered them In speech in
the House Of Representatives, in Washing
ton, on the 18th of January, ls4S, of a quesr
ton Of reference of certain portions of the
Presidents Message. The speech is repot-
ed, officially, in the Congressional Globe,
and you may find it ON the Gath page of the
Appendix, among the debates of the first
session Of the Both Congress.
The Republicans denied it and bet of
ST. was made that the words were not so
reported in the Globe, in one of President
Lincoln's speeches. The bet was decided
in favor Of the Democrat, on the 2lst inst,
on an inspection of the Globe, in the State
Library at Hartford, containing the speech
of President Lincoln, and the words which
we have quoted.
What a commentary upon the senseless
parrot cry Of "traitor," uttered by fanatics
who are generally quite ignorant of the
meaning and bearing of the epithets they
SO frequently use.-Hartord Times.

DIABETES and DISEASES of the
KIDNEYS and BLADDER.
CONSTITUTION WATER

Has been pronounced by the Medical Faculty and tho
public, to be the most wonderful remedy for the per-
manent cure Of all diseases of the STOMACH, LIV-
ER, KIDNEYS and BLADDER that has ever been
offered. t -.H."tefaff
1t is not a MINERAL WATER. 1t is from expe-
rience that CONSTITUTION WATER has emenat-
ed, and we now say let no man doubt, when single
bottle has been known to cure diseases which the
best medical talent in the country failed to relieve
A remedy possessing the virtues of Constitution
Water cannot be classed under "quack" prepara-
tions, as it is now used by the most scientific prac-
titioners in the city 1t is only second-class physi-
clans that cry down popular remedies while the bet
ter skilled make use of every means TO accomplish
q cure; and the success Of the physician increases
as his knowledge of different remedies enables him
TO produce cure, while others fail in the attempt-
Science is satisfied with the truth.
Give Constitution w ater fair trial-we mean you
who are under some SPECIALISTS care from year to
year, and particularly allude to ladies who are
constantly resorting to LOCAL TREATMENT, and all
sorts Of local applications for Diseases with as much
chance of success as there would be from local ap-
plications to the throat for diseases of the BRAIN
We have always been careful to use language in
our circular that could not shock the most delicate
organization, but we receive many communications
from persons for whom Constitution Water is adapt
ed, and of whose disease no mention has been made
that we have como to the conclusion that if the rem
edy is capable Of, producing cure. no matter what
the disease may be, it should be made known. The
medicine is put up for the public and there should
be no exceptions. a
