SEWARD ENpoRsEs THE DOCTRINE OF SE-

SEWARD ENDORSES THE DOCTRINE OF Sc
cEssIoNIsTs.-The demagogueism and de-
basement of Wm H. Seward is fairly illus
trated in his speech delivered at Delmonico's,
in New York, wherein he grew eloquent over
the doctrine of State Rights, and informed
the New Yorkers that their allegiance was
due first to the State and then to the General
Government. This is the argument advanc-
ed by all secessionists, from John c. Calhoun
down to JEFF. Davis, and the people of the
Empire City have long since grown familiar
with it through the speeches of Wood and
Brooks, and through the medium of the
World, News, and Day Book. They have
also grown familiar with the legitimate re-
suits of that doctrine during the past five
years, having beheld its assaults upon the
life of the Nation, and witnessed its natural
fruits in the mobs and butcheries of New
York, Memphis and New Orleans. However,
Seward is only wasting time in advising the
old guard of Secession as to their duty and
allegiance. They have been faithful all their
lives in their devotion to State supremacy,
and consistent in their opposition to every
thing that tended to the good and glory of
the Republic; but the great mass of Ameri
cln freemen have ostracised them from the
pale of honor and trust and consigned them to
the shades of political oblivion-a bourne to
which the Sage of Auburn is rapidly tend

SINGULAR RECOVERY FROM CuoLERA-The
following singular fact is related by the Me

During the summer of 1913, towards the
end of june the epidemic reached Brussels,
when 1t attacked, one Sunday in the after
noon, Gen. Chazal, Minister of War, who
gradually sank, and by eleven on that night
was IN hopeless state, notwithstanding the
attendance of four medical men, including
Dr. Seutin, the first surgeon of Brussels, and
Dr. Varlet, celebrated homeopathic prac-
tltloner. AT eight the following morning all
was considered over, the face having assumed
blue tinge, and the pulse having ceased. so
that the Generals death was communicated
to the royal family and announced in the
pubic journals. whenceit was copied through
out Europe. Meanwhile, ap accidental ref.
erence by General Jomini, before the attend

Isaocks Invitations had been extenoeo u
orarv one in town, and to every acquaintance
&c tho bride and bridegroom in the county,
and at the appointed time Odd Fellows Hall
was crowded. At the conclusion OF the GER
emony an invitation was given to all present
10 renair to the residence of the happy couple.
Of course everybody availed themselves OF
the invitation, and on arriving there found
that ample preparation had been made to
receive them-a table was found spread that
would have satisfied the taste of an epicure
for quality, and delighted the eye of gour'
man6 for quantity. Rich cake and cho'ce
drinkables abounded, while the tables fairly
groaned beneath the weight of the other com
comitants of a princely feast. The occasion
was Joyous one. and highly appreciated by
all present. At about IL O'Clock the crowd
dispersed. We hope all future weddings in
this vicinity will be conducted on the same
old fashioned, sensible plan.

A RESPONSIBLE TAsK.-They tell good
story, IN Baltimore, of General Wool. who
was at one time in command of the middle
department. During the first invasion Of
Maryland by Stonewall jackson rnn,ors
were rife in Baltimore that that dbiouitous
leader, at the head of fifty thousand men
was marching upon the city. As the story
goes, General Wool, accompanied by his
saan' ioae out on Frederick turnpike to re-
eonnoitre. As they were returning to the
city, the General stopped at the toll gate. and
calling the keeper, thus addressed him. in
that sharp, precise way for which he is fa-
nous: See here, my man 1t is rumored
that jackson and fifty thousand rebels are
want you to shut this gate and keep it shut
against them. If you let imam of them pass
through, I'll hold you personally responsible
for it." Leaving the gate keeper overwhelin.

duty, the General.qqietly pursued his way
back to the city.

FATALLY INruRED.-On the Goth ult. VIM.
Kingston and man named Reagan became
engaged in dispute about the ownership OF
some cattle, while stopping at the trading
post of VIM. Burgett, in Fall River valley
and after the passage of hard words on both
sides, Reagan seized an iron weight and
struck Kingston heavy blow on the head
which felled him to the floor, where he lay
for some time perfectly insensible. He how
ever. recovered sufficiently from the blow to
be able to be up and around afterwards, but
in the conrse of few days he grew very i'll,
and finally died on the 9th inst. Reagan gave
himself up to the authorities, had an examin'
alton before Justice Hastings, and on Satur
day last was committed to Jail, to await thu
action of the Grand Jury.

AT this season of the year, when so many
of our people are suffering from cold, we call
attention to Ayers Cherry Pectoral as sure
cure not only for coughs and colds, but all
affections of the lungs and throat. Having
used 1t in our family for many years, we
can speak from personal knowledge of its
efficiency. There may be other remedies
that are good, but in all our experience this
has proved to be by far the best. Its quail.
ties are uniform and wholly reliable 1t is

that he does not endorse the Presidents S

one of the bravest of.the brave, and bears the
evidence of his gallantry and devotion to the
Union cause in the shape of fourteen wounds
received during the late war against John
sons supporters. Barlow''s kind are not the
right material to enter into the new party
movement. Vale Hampton, Wigfall and

The correspondent of the Irish American
"a paper whose influence is immense among
the Irish people in the Eastern States and
whose instincts have been intensely Demo-
cratic until the baseness of the leaders of
that party toward the the Fenian cause was
clearly exhibited-in writing from Wash
ington on the day when the bill to repeal the
neutrality laws was introduced in the House
of Representatives by Gen. Banks and
passed by that body, calls the particular at
.tention of the Irish people to the following
fact which they should forever treasure in
their memory:
There was one remarkable coincidence no.
ticed in the House. that not single Demo
crat spoke in favor of the bill, they voted for
it, but not a single man of their partyi in the
house spoke a word for Ireland. after being
supported in solid column for thirty years
by the Irish vote. So much for voting
for party. How would it be now if
we had voted for the interests of Ireland all
that time What a different story we might
have to tell instead of helping demagogues
into Office and then finding out that in. the
hour of Ireland's need they were not to be
found in the ranks of Ireland's patriots,
battling with voice and means for Irish lib
erty. WE'LL WE'LL perhaps the Irish people
are opening their eyes to these facts. God
grant it.
l cannot conclude without mentioning the
deep interest and labors of speaker Cofax in
behalf of the bill. he was unceasing in his eff
forts. One could see his nervous anxiety
during the discussion, and when the vote
was taken he desired his name to be called,
so as to record his vote in favor of the bill.
He is splendid fellow, and an honor to his
country, and neither he nor Banks should
ever want friend while an Irishman lives.
