siness, and general feeling of WEAKNESS and las

A REBEL SPEEcH.---It has been an
nOunced every week, for three or four weeks,
that on the next Saturday, Hon. A. Mayo would
address the Democracy at the Court Room. On
last Saturday little squad was finally drummed
up, and the Hon. Arch. was delivered. Part OF
the crowd was attentive. One man slept oil the
time, and another was so drunk that he chinned
himself all through the speech.
Mr. Mayo argued earnestly for State rights, and
State Sovereignty. He said that the States of this
Union were as sovereign and independent as were
France, Great Britain or Prussia. The resOlu-
tions of 179S-o9 were the corner stones Of De-
mocracy These resolutions had been reiterated
in every Democratic platform since that time but
they had not been re-publIshed, and hence one
half of those who had been voting the Democrat
ic ticket had no conception Of what they contain
ed. He said that the people of the South had
been instructed in those doctrines and understood
them. But the people of the North were grossly
Ignorant, and entirely misunderstood the theory
of our system Of Government. He said the peo-
pie appeared to think that the National Govern
ment was supreme and not the States; whereas
the States were supreme and sovereign, and the
National Government was subordinate, having
been formed by the sovereign States, for ce rtain
limited purposes.
(Right here we would like to ask Mr.. Mayo
what Article 9Th of the Constitution of the United
States means, where it says:
"This constitution, and the laws of the United
States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; /;
and all treaties made, or which shall be made,
under the authority of the United States, shall be
the supreme lac Of the land and the judges in
every State shall be bound thereby, anything in the
constitution or laOs Of any State to The contrary
Hot,Oithstdnding.D
Mr.. Mayo's whole argument was an attempt to
prove that any State had a right to secede and
break up the National Government, and that there
was no power anywhere TO prevent it.
We only wish that every honest Democrat in
jackson county could have heard this secession
speech, from one of the ablest Democrats in the
county.

BECAUSE they cure indigestion, and impart
unwOnted vigOr to the stomach.
BECAUSE they are the best appstisiag medicine
at present known.
BECAUSE they are the only preparation upon
which persons OF bilious habit can safely rely to

without causing undue relaxation.
BECAUSE they strengthen the nerres clear the
brain, and cheer the animal spirits.
BECAUSE in case of an attack of spasms or
bilious collie they are the best thing that can be
administered on the instant
BECAUSE they combine the three properties
of tonic, an Alternative and nervine in their ut
most purity and perfection.
BECAUSE they are specific against Ague
and Fever and oil ntermlttents, and with oil their
potency as preseryative and remedy, are as
harmless as mater from the mOuntdin spring!

GA YOUNG LADY returning to her
country home after sojourn of few months in
the City, was hardly recognized by her friends.
In place of coarse, rustic flushed face, she had
soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth
ness, and instead of twenty-three she really ap-
peared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the
cause of so great change, she plainly told them
that she used the Circassian Balm, and
considered 1t an invaluable acquisition to any La
dy's toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman
can improve their personal appearance an hun
dred fold. It is simple in Its combination, as Ma
ture herself Is simple yet unsurpassed In Its eff
cacy in drawing impurities from, also healing,
cleansing and beautifying the skin and complex
ion. BY Its direct action on the cuticle 1t draws
from it all Its impurities, kindly healing the same,
and leaving the surface as Nature intended 1t
should be, clear, soft, smooth and beautiful.
