from Its folly and the sorpant ftortiitj* vi.mc.” ‘ lie aame rebuke .vras happily administered to certain ujifeathered geese Mid unsealed serpents in t'ie last Legisla ture by ore whom personal abuse - cannot injure nor icmicn lancet unhorse And it might hare been effectively applied,.on a late occasion Lad the speaker considered those who hissed as. worthy of comparison with geese and serpents. I presume that lie did rot wish to flutter them, cither by noticing their ntteuij-t at insult or com paring them with objects so niudi their superiors. And it is strikingly suggestire to the mind of your contributor, that when public meeting is called on four or five occasions, and a Chairman appointed, everv time except the last; and that., when the gauntlet is thrown by ft speaker on a previous occasion; and that when a “free fight” is declared and no o .c permitted to shoot except. the pojvgun arulleristu of a certain clique* and thelast speech which the wirepullers permitted to be.mode was-— 11 Let u?, loos to the Lord and be dL.nisscd ” waeu it ought to have been - ‘Let ut look to the Mayor and retreat!’ - 1 sav that, yh n snot jhings-.t-ako.-i lace, it is strikingly suggestive-to my mind that a cirta'u set who aspire to mmticqvai hon ors are afraid to the question in open unrestricted debate, and wish to. dodge the lilows which would have been inflated; had tnev fought fair, and • Idea, can be atppl ed as well through this medium, per haps, as tnroiigh that of public debate. Y<ur con ributor cannot imagine wiiy he should be made the object of special defamation simply because he desired to set f rth the claim* of a candidate a gaiusl venom no valid objection had been .r could be urged—yet iu so good a cause I am w iling to submit to the aspersions of those win cannot appreciate a pure af fluence or understand an honest motive.

Mr Cline has determined, that, rather than be rife tint zed by. wire-pulling cliques, tie will withdraw from tli€candidacy. At lea-st, I presume that sncii is his reason, for i have held no personal eousuLation with him It may be that other can.li dates will also with Iraw.

Possessing all the sensitive feel ings of a thorough-bred physician, Dr. McLane dreaded being classed with the shallow pretenders who crowd the col umns of the newspapers with pufTs of sov ereign remedies, and for a long time de clined the requests of many that he would proclaim his great remedy to the public; but, fiiully after much persuasion on the,part of physicians and others who had witnessed the wonderful cures effect ed by the Liver Pills, he consented to prepare it use. The following cert.ficate, from Dr. Morgan, will bear us out in the statement; it is also valuable as medic.il testimony of the efficacy of these Pills- - “ This is to ceitify that I have been associated with Dr McLme, in the prac tice- of medicine, for nearly two yeurs aud a half. 1 have had many opportuni ties of witnessing the good etfec.s of his Liver PJ ; and I believe they have cureu ar.d relieved a much larges proportion ol the diseases of tho Liver, than I have in own ctiDd and relieved by any other coutse of treatment.
