It is so well protected thatit is impossible for 1re

MISCELLANEOUS REMARKS.
One would expect to see great many planes,

hut no, nothing OF the Kind Is observed. The ma
chinery Is 80 complete, and does the work so
thoroughly, that 1t is very seldom q plane is
psed II Mr.. r. could get machine to put the
various peces together after they leave the other
machines he could put wood under them, start
the engine, lock up the establishment, 60 or and
spend the day, return tile next morning, find the
machinery srlI at work turning out rallings, COL
umns, mouldings. scrolwork, ,sashes, blinds, doors

What the Democrats Want.

I'he Democratic party wishes to- have
the following principles carried out in
our National government.
The Democracy wish tor a prompt
and perfect restoration of the Union in
all its parts, and its entire integrity {;
equality among the States as prescribed
by the Constitution; the immediate re-
moval of al disabilities resulting from
the Civil War, and the restoration of
harmony and fraternal friendship be-
tween all sections of the country, which
the abuse and usurpations of partisan
power have criminally labored to pre-
vent:
A Tariff for Reverre to'cover' the
expenditures Of al economical Admins
ration, and to meet the just obligations
of the Government, as opposed to'the
existing system of exorbitant protection
for special monopolies and undisguised
Partially for favored manufacturers
Reduction of the present odious aud
oppressive scale of Taxation, both as
applied to duties on imports and to in
tcrnal revenue:
Rigid Economy in every department
Of the Government, and retrenchmsnt OF
the expenses:
Reform of the Public Service in all its
branches, Civil, Military and Naval:
A Sound National Currency, equally
distributed among the States, and pro,
tected against speculative fuctuations
The Rights of Intelligent Labor
against all selfish combinations to de,
grade and Lepreci&tect:
Legislation by which the public land.
will be reserved for actual settlers, anC
~ resource OF National credit, in oppo
sition to the Radical policy of enormou.
grGRts to spectators aud corrupt
schemes:
The fullest and llrmcst Protection tc
American Citizens abroad:
And cordial sympathy with all people
struggling for liberty and self govern.

Thomas Jefferson on appointing
his "relatiycS" to Office.

The principle which should govern
every man in power ia settling the ques-
ton whether or no to appoint his rcla-
tives 10 Office is admirably expressed in
the following letter, written in 1901, by
Thomas Jefferson, the founder of tE.e
Democratic party, to "rel tive Of his
who had written to Aim when he became
President about obtaining an office:
DEAR SIR: Ihavc to acknowledge the
receipt of yours of March 4, and to ex-
press to you the delight with which |
found the just, disin,erested and honor
able point of view in which you saw the
proposition it covered. Thc resolution
you so properly approved had long been
formed in my mind. The public will
never be made TO believe that an appoint
ment of relative is made on the ground
of merit alone, uuinhuencedI by family
views; nor can they ever see with APP
probation, offices, the disposal of which
they intrust to their Presidents for pub
lie purposes, divided out as family
property. Mr.. Adams degraded him
self infinitely by his conduct on this sub
ject, as Washington had done himself
the greatest honor. With two such ex.
amplcs to proceed by, should be
doubly inexcusable to err. 1t is true
that this places the relations of the
President in worse situation than if he
were a stranger; but the public good,
which cannot be effected if its confidence
be lost, requires this sacrifice. Per-
haps, too, it is compensated by sharing
in the public esteem could not be sat-
isfed till [ assured you of tile increased
esteem with which this transaction fills
me for you. Accept my atfectionate
expression of it. T. IT, JEFFERSON.

EXpresident Buchanan Vim.
Dictated.

During the rebellion the late ex Pres
ident Buchanan was charged by the
Republicans of being in favor of the
"rebelS' or "secessionists.' In a late
numbers Of the Galaxy we find the fol.
Lowing letter written by him to the Hon,
IIoratio King, a few days aacrthe mur
der of President Lincol;a which most
thoroughly .disproves the reasonable
accu>ation. We shall see whether the
Radical papers will have honor enough
to publish the aforesaid letter which We
now give to cur readers. 1t is. as fol.
lows:
WnEATLANp, near Lancaster, April
9th, 1865. My Dear Sir: In COM
mon with you, feel the assassination
of President Lincoln to be a terrible
calamity to our country. May God, in
his mercy, ward from us the evils which
it por,ends, and bring good out Of this
fearful calamity, My Intercourse with
our deceased President, both on his
visit to me on his arrival in Washing
ton, and on the day of his first inaugura.
tion, convinced ne that herwas man OF
KIM aud benevolent heart, and OF
plain, siroeror and fs'auk> manner. |
have not changed my opinion of his
character. Indeed, felt for 'hm much
personal regard.
Throughout the years Of thc-war ]
never taltered III my conviction that il
would eventually terminate in the crush
ing of the rebellion, aad was ever op,
po2cd to the recognition of the Confeder-
ate Government by any act which even
looked in that direction. Believing
always secession to be palpable viola
ton Of the Constitution, | considered the
act of secession to be absolutely void,
and that the States were still members
Trough rebellious MEMBERS of the
| Union.
Having prayed at night and morning
for the restoration OF the Union, the
Constitution, and our civiljliberties, and
fondly believing that President hincolr
was the destined instrument in the hands
of Divine Providence to accomplish
these inestimable blessings, the awful
news of his diabolical assassination, al
such a moment, overwhelmed me will
sorrow.
These are my heartfelt sentiments
you invite, but they are not for the pub
tic eye. When, on the first opportunity
after the first battle, of Bull Run, | eX,
pressed strong opinions to public meet
ing in support Of the war, l was assailet
as violently for this as though [ hac
uttered treason. If Iwere now to writ,
for the public, which | could do will
heartfelt emotion, on the subject of tn
assassination, it would be treated in {
similar manner JAMES BUCHANAN

The Dead Letter Office is one Of the
most curiously interesting branches of
the government, and the cause Of it, or
the necessity for such ar institution, is o
mystery. 1t is impossible almost to
conceive of the carclessness, stupidity
and ignorance by which more than four
teen millions of letters were entrusted to
the Post Office in single year, for
which no designation could be found, in
consequence of inaccuracies, imperfec-
tiors and fatal omissions in direction
upwards of 5000 having no address
whatever. Aud the mystery is the more
remarkable when it is considered that
these letters contained money to the
amount of at least 100000, in small
sums generally, and checks, drafts, ETC.,
to the amount of So 900, 900 more. This
property w.s of course eturned, or most
Of it, upon information obtained by
opening and examining the letters at the
Dead Letter Office.

The Alabama PiraV.

II seems that while Gen, Butler is
trying to get up war with England,
founded on the Alabama claims, his
Radical colleagues down South are got.
ting up a fraud which makes the exploits
of the alabama vessel look dainty in
comparison. 1t is po,hing less than
stealing State.
Alabama has Just elected II Demo
cratic Governor and Lieut.. Governor.
But the Radical Governor and Treasurer
applied to Radical judge the other day
and obtained an injunction restraining
the Legislature from counting the votes
for their successors. The presiding Of
fcer of the Senate, in order to head off
the swearing in of the Lieutenant Gov
ernor, moved an adjournment, but the
device failed.
Thc fraud is not limited to the Execu.
tive and State officers. The Democrats
have elected a decided majority of mem.
bers of the Lower House. There is,
however, flaw in the Constitution of
the State, which requires that the Sena
tors shall hold office for four years; but
itrequires, also, that the Senators elected
in 1868 should divide into two lots, one
class retiring at the end of two years
and the other holding on four years.
No such division was made. The Dem
ocrats claim therefore, that the Senate S
neglect to perform their duty makes the
entire body illegal, and that a new cleo
ton for Senators should be held. The
Radicals deny this; and the Senate
holds over--so as to keep the Legisla-
ture disorganized, and furnish Congress
with a pretence to- interfere. In the
interval the present Radical State off
GERS are TO remain in office, and those
elected by the people are to be kept out.
One object of this conspiracy is the
election of Senator Warner, as we'll as
the forwarding of corrupt Railroad
schemes lostered under the rule of Gov.
Smith.
1t is doubtful il the plot will succeed
for the pacuniary stake is so large that
the RAdical factions are fighting over it,
aud it is possible that they will not agree.
III the late election many Republicans,
disguised wilhthe corrupt rule of their
party, refused to- support Gov. Smith
and the act Of sending additional troops,
in the face Of both Senator Warmers and
Gov Smiths repeated declarations that
the State was pea ell, opera Cd against
the Republican success.
Warned by theis fte in North Caro-
lima, Georgia, West Virginia, &C., the
Radicals have taken prccautlon to con.
:rol the vote Of Georgia. The voting
precincts ore few aud far between, and
the election is to be held for three days,
and the ballct-boxes are to be carried
away from the polls fer three nights, to
remain in the custody Of Governor Bul
locks Commission. The registration in
1869 was l02,4ll whites and 98,307
colored. The election commences on
the DIST OF December and lasts till the
close of the 23d day. This is the negro
holiday season; and they can vote early
and often, II they fail to carry the
State Congress can come TO The rescue.

Ayers Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Gnn fafin1a

ard Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races of
men it has risen higher and higher in their cstima.
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat have made known as 4 re.
liable protector against them,- While adapted to
mder forms OF disease and TO young children, 1t Is
at the same time the most electua remedy that can
be given for incpent consumptloni anu the u;lh-
gerous affections Of the throat and lungs As pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, 1t should
be kent on hand in every family, and indeed as all
arc sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidoc for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought ill.,
curablc still great numbers of cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patieM restored to sound health by tho
Cbcrrv Pectoral. SO complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of them yieldto it. When noth'
ing else could reach them, under the Cherry Pec-
torat thew subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers ma great pro-
lection from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it..
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectOraI in small and frequent doses.
For Cough and Cold, no better remedy can
be had. Take small doses three times day and
put the feet in warm water at night, until the
disease is broken up.
For Tnfuen=a, when it affects the throat or
lungs, take the same course.
For WhOoping Cough, give small doses three
or four times day.
For Group, give large and frequent doses until
the disease is overcome.
No family should be without the Chcrry Pecfo-
r+rl on hand to protect them in case of attack,
from the above complaints. Its timely use often
spares the patient great amount of suffering and
risk, which he would incur by waiting until he
could get other aid Parents, keep tin your houses
for the cxigcnccs that arise. Lives dear to you
| may be saved by it.
/ SO generally are its virtues known, that we need
not publish certificates of them here or do more
than assure the public that the best qualities ever
! possessed are strictly maintained.
