Chicago Times

In the Democratic convention of 1852,
when Franklin Pierce was nominated,
Daniel s. Dickinson stood, In his relation
to General Cass, much as General
Garfield stood 10 Chicago with
reference to John Sherman. There
was war ofEfactions in the Demo
cratic party of New York, and a divided
delegation to the convention. The minor
ity desired the nomination of Governor
Marcy. The majority, led by Dickinson
presented the name OF Cass, Dickinson
making the nominating speech. His son.
in-law, Courtney, of New York, tells the
rest of the story: After several ballots
had been mad, without result, Mr.. Bar
bour, of Virginia, suddenly pronounced
the name of ex-senator Diekenson, and it
was received with such instant favor, by
those upon the floor and in the galleries,
that there was little doabt that the NOM
nation would have com manded the
necessary two-thlrds OF the votes; but
Mr.. Dickinson arose, and, with
great impressiveness OF manner and
dignity of statement, said that he had
come there earnestly and honorably pre-
pared to support General Cass; in fact.
was pledged to him, and under no circum"
stances, therefore, could he allow his
name to be used until General Cass should
release him from his promise to support
him. This General Cas-. under advice of
friends, declined by telegraph to do, and
the result was the nomination of Franklin
Pierce as compromise from among OUT
side candidates. But the scene, when Mr..
Dickinson made his speech declining to
allow the use of his name, was highly
dramatic. Ladies threw him bouquets

S
Certificate of a Prominent Citizen
OF Adrian. Mich, who had not
Walked without Clutches for
two years. He threw them away
in "a Hours after the first ap-
plication of Wizard Oil.
DR.. HAMLIN:-When I met your agent
here, in September, had been two years suf
fering severely with Rheumatism, half of that
time confined to the house, and three months
at a time to my bed. The balance of the
time was compelled to crawl around upon
clutches. 1 used medicines without number,
including large quantity of morphine, all of
which proved worse than useless. AS to what
suffered, the English language cannot tell
it to any one who has not tried its realities.
The first application of Wizard Oil gave
me relief in fifteen minutes, and dispelied my
doubts i'll twenty-four hours. / used bottle
a day for ten days. The next morning after
the use OF the first bottle,
left my Clutches at home and
walked down town without them
for the first time i'm two years.
Since then1 have not used them, and cannow
split cord of wood as quick as any man in
Adrian Some of my friends at first thought
sucha sudden cure would kill me, but wanted
a change, though it should be death.
That all who read this may know how
have been, will say, when 1 commenced
using Wizard Oil, could roach around my
leg above the knee with one hand.

tom and most of the time
when L moved upon
clutches, or tried to stand
without them, L could not raise
either foot from the floor.
used fifteen bottles in all, but have not used
any for two months. I now feel as well as
ever did in my life, and have gained thirty five
pounds IN flesh. But must tell you it seems
almost like a dream. You can refer to me as
often as you wish, and hundreds of the citi-
Eens of Adrian will testify to the truth of
my statements.

MARsHALTowN, Iowa, October 1880.
We, i'm Iowa have come down from
the watch house with cheer and hope.
We, who occupy the front ranks In the
long roll of Republicans, have felt that
1t was painful to stand still and look
upon the terrible battle as it was being
fought in Ohio and Indiana on the 18th
of October. We watched with all the
eagerness of the loyal North, and you
cannot conceive Of the anxiety of those
who rally under the Republican flag,
and now that the smoke has SO far blown
away, as to allow US to see the field,
what sight it presents to the Demo-
Gratis of Iowa? They appear to have
lost all their friends, and saloons are
now to be found with Grape on their
doors. Ohio; we In Iowa are proud Of
your conduct on that dark day October
18th, your acts will cast their light far
around, and 1 am proud that have the
right to partake of your victory. May
the old Buckeye State ever be true to
the Republican cause.
Fred A. Snow, son of John A. Snow,

law and likes it much.
