“For two years I suffered the Vertigo, Nausea and
Headache, alt ending Dyspepsia, sometimes so severely
as to incapacitate me for any’ effort—at others, to con
fine me to my bed. My bowels were often so consti
pated as to oblige me to use the most powerful purga
tives to relieve myself. Indeed, I at last found it ne-
eessarry to use something of the kind constantly.—
Last fall I commenced taking IKERHAVE’S HOL

A Care lor Whooping Cough.
St. Hyacinthe, Canada E., Aug. 5J, 1856.
Messrs. Seth YV. Fowle A Co. Gentlemen:—Several
months since a little daughter of mine, ten yens of age,
was taken with Whooping Cough in n very aggravated
form, and nothing we could do for her seemed in any
way to relieve her sufteriiig. We at length decided to
try a bottle of your Dr. YY’istar’s Balsam of Wild Cher
ry. In three boars after she bad cemmeneed using it,
she was greatly relieved, and in less than three days
was entirely cured, and is now well. I have since re
commended the Balsam to many of my neighbors, who
hove used it, and in no case have I known it fail of ef
fecting a speedy- cure.
You arc at liberty to make any use of the above you
think proper. If it shall induce any body to use your
Balsam I shall be glad, for 1 hare great confidence in
it. Yours,

Ai.akmino Sighs of Sickness—A Prediction of
a Sicki.v St'mm er.—We refer our readers to tiie follow
ing extract from a medical Journal known as the Mur
ing World, published by Radway A Co., the ins-entors
of the celebrated Ii. R. H. remedies. Hr. Radway’s
experience in the treatment of malarious and infectious
diseases not only in our own country, but in South
America and the West Indies, and the wonderful
achievement* nfhis Ready Relief, both as a preventive
and cure of Yellow Fever, Cholera, and other diseases
of violent character, entitles his prediction to the
serious consideration of the people. It is well known
iri this city that in 1849 Radway’s Ready Relief was
the most successful remedy employed in tne treatment
Cholera, and that in 1853, when Yellow Fever raged in
its most violent form in the Stale of Miss. Dr. Fred
B. Page, with the use of the remedy, gained a com
plete victory over the pestilence. We therefore le-
coinmcud our readers to the perusal of the following
article from the May number of the Moving World:
An Alarm—Foreshadow ing he Terrible Sick
ness—Prevalence of Mali.akious Diseases.—As
Guardians of the public health, it is our duty to give
the alarm when we discover the approach ot dangerous
maladies .calculated to give the alarm when we discov
er the approach of dangerous maladies, calculated to
create a general panic by 'he production of universal
sickness, disease and death. We are convinced that
dangers of tin- most terrible character, in the form of
sickness and disease, will visit the greater portion of
our country the coming summer and fall, in the form of
Flux, Yellow Kever, Dysentery, Fever and Ague,
Cholera, .ShipKever, J)iarriiica,;Typhi.id Kever, Biliious
Fever, Cholera Morbus, Congestive Feveis, and sick
ness of a more mild and less malignant character,
such as Billiousucs*. Cramps, sadden attacks of Vomit
ing, Headaches, Looseness of the Bowels, Rush of
Blood to the Head, Chills and Fever, Dumb Ague, Re
mittent and Intermittent Feveis. Rheumatism. Neural
gia, Croup, Whooping Cough, will run riot throughout
the length and breadth uf the laud.
Persons who are unfortunately tormented with
Forr«, Ulcers, Breaking out, Prickly Heat, Boils, Scur
vy, and Chronic Disease, wiii suffer greatly the coining
Season.
The past Mild winter, succeed as it has keen by the
frightful overflowing of the rivers, creeks, streams and
bayous in the Southern and Western States, deluging
the face of the country for thousands of square miles,
together with the heavy rains which drenched the
earth the past spring, followed, as we predict by abut
scorching summer,eannot fail to create a general sick
ness, and quicken into existence, malarious diseases of
the most malignant and violent character. The hot
rays of the absorbing sun will summon from its marshy
bed the noxious vapors and poisonous exhalations of
decayed vegetable and decomposed mutter, planted in
the soil, and nourished by the deluge of the waters and
dienehings of the rain.
In giving this warning of the sure -visitation of these
maladies, we likewise point out to the public the
means of protection against attacks, and tin- method of
cure. In Radway’s Ready Relief and Regulators, you
have a Preventive. Jf any or cither of the diseases
uhnvc-uanifd visit your community, as epidemics or
otherwise, Rtuhrau’t liendy Belief, taken as a drink in
some water three or four times per day, w ill fortify the
stoniueli aguiust the action of any pmsiononsor mala
rious elements inhaled. The sy stem thus fortified, the
malarious exhalation of gases on lulled Jose* its power,—
and health reign* throughout eveiy ramification of the
body In all eases, when there are uny diseases or
aickness prevailing, the bowels, liver, Ac . should be
regulated with Radway'* Regulators. The highest
medical authorities iu the world eudorse Radway’s
Ready Relief as the best disinfectant iu use. If af
flicted with any of these malaiies above-named, Rail
way's Relief and Regulators sliouid be freely used; in
a few hours the patient will be out of danger.
For the Sores, Breaking out, Ac., Radway’s Reuo-
Vatinoltesolveut should be used. Provide yourself
with these remediee, and however terribly these ffis-
east-s inav rage, you are safe. Let every planter,
farmer, liouseholder, take warning, arid secure asup-
ply of Radway’s Ready Relief and Regulators, for in
such an hour'/oil think not of, these maladies may visit
you. With the Ready Relief to. use the moment you
feel their approach, you can quickly arrest their pro
gress and free your system from their presence. Si ot.

PERRY DAVIS'S
Vegetable Pain Killer!
Internal and External Remedy.
ShelbyviUe, Tenn, Oct. 15, 1356.
Messrs. Perry Davis &. Son :
Sirs—Gratitude to you, and duty to suffering human
ity, require that I should make known the great benefit
I have derived from the use of your truly valuable
Vegetable I’ain Killer; and if by seeing this, any suffer
er will be induced, as I was, to give it a trial aud be
healed, I shall be compensated a thousand fold.
In June. 1355, after a protracted illuess of several
mouths, 1 wS severely attacked with drowsiness, ver
tigo, when attempting to .walk, dimness of sight, ac
companied by fever, difficulty of breaiiiing, A c. My
physician pronounced my case pneumonia, bordering
on the first stage of consumption; aud after exhausting
his skill, declared positively that I had tlie consumption
that he could do nothing for me, and thut I must die.
However, he advised me to u«c * * * * ns the
best thing 1 could do. which I did, with no effect. I
then made use of four bottles of ***** *
wliich proved inefficient.
By this time my symptoms were, .palti ill the head,
morning, evening, and during the night, darting pains
through the chest, burning in the palms of the hands,
quick pulse, night sweat, difficulty of breathing, See.,
when fortunately I got hold of the People’s Pamphlet,
in which I sniv the cases of Messrs. Blinu, Cone, and.
others, which induced me try Perry Davis’s Vegetable
Pain Killer, and strange as it may appear, I derived
more benefit from the use of one 25 cent bottle, than I
had done from all oilier medicines. I have used four
bottles of the Pain Killer, ami am hearty, and enjoy
better health than I have heretofore done for a number
of years. I remain yours, .

Mr. English’s Speech,
GENTLEMEN: I thank you kindly for the com
pliment wliich you have, paid me upon ibis occa
sion an 1 conic forward cheerfully in response to
your call: yet uot w ithout fear that at this late
hour, ami .-ifter the able spcche- vou have heard,
I shall be unable to interest and entertain you.—
I claim to be a man of action rather thau words,
but yet I am usually able, upon proper occasion,
to give a reasou for the faith that is in me. j am
always glad to meet my friends, and I confess not
to be indifferent to their good opinion. I am grat
ified to meet you here 10-night, because I hail you
as friends,and feel that you sympathize with me,
and rejoice at the action which lias recently taken
place in the Congress ot tlie Untted States. I
have uot given any open demonstrations of re
joicing, but I must confess to you, fellow-citizens,
that I have.on several occasions since the passage
of that bill, felt an impulse to cry out “Glory! Hal
lelujah!” [Cheers.] Why should we not rejoice
at that action! What is Kansas that she should
have caused all this turmoil and contusion
thruuguout the land tor the last four years! What
is Kansas that sha should, during the last four
months,, have obstructed tlie general business of
the country/ What is Kansas that she shouid
endanger the peace and happiness of this great
and glorious confederacy of ours’ Better, far bet
ter, that the foot of the white man should never
be set upon the soil of Kansas than that these
tilings should be. (Applauses.] Yes, fellow citi
zens, it would be better that no white man should
be allowed to enter Kansas, and that it should be
turned over forever to the wild beasts and the
savages of the forest—better that tlie earth should
open, and that the whole territory, from one boun
dary to the other should be swallowed up in eter
nal oblivion—than that the peace and harmony of
this country should be endangered, or its best in
terests imperiled! [Voices. “That’s so!”] Then
fe‘low-citizens, we have cause for rejoicing that
something liae been done to settle this question.—
The measure which has just passed ought to se
cure peace, and restore harmony among the
different sections of the confederacy. 1 do not
say that it will do it for there aro bad men who
for evil purposes and for selfish ends will oppose
the wisest and best measures in order to accom
plish their designs; and they may act thus in
reference to this, as they have in reference to other
just measures that have passed iu Congress of the
United States. Four years ago a great measure
was enacted by Congress winch recognized a
principle that ought to be dear to the heart of eve
ry American citizen, because it is a principle that
underlies all our republican institutions—a princi
ple which is Gud-given—the right of man to self-
government. And yet this important act. which,
if it had been carried into execution faithful ly ac
cording to its terms, would have secured peace
to the country on the question of slavery,
has been seized upon by mad fanatics, who
for political purposes have raised the shout
of “blleeding Kansas,” and have kept this
whole country in turmoil and confusion ever
since. Feliow-eitizens, I hope the act which has
just been passed may be tie* means of restoring
peace and liarmcuy to the Union. I shall rejoice
if that be tiie result. I hope and believe that such
will be the result; but. whether it be so or not,
the effort which lias been made is praise-worthy,
and let us all indulge the hope that from yesterday
we may date an era of good feeling in this country
which may long continue to bless our happy land.
[Applause.]
Bfit gentlemen, I have still another cause for
rejoicing. The passage of this measure will not
only tend to restore peace and harmony among the
different sections of the confederacy, but it will
tend to restore peace and harmony in the bosom ot
the good old-fashioned democratic party—God
bli ss her! [Great applause.]
And I have also personal reasons for rejoicing
in this matter. There were those who knew so
little of me as for a time to suppose that I had
some affinity with the black republican party; but
never were men mor e mistaken. They deceived
themselves, and without my giving them the
slightest occasion for it. I was born in the good
old democratic faith; it was the party of my father
before me, anu never have I on any occasion de
parted from it. [Cheers.] The truth is, fellow-
citizeus, the black repulicans deceived themselves.
They dug a pit for others to fall into, and unfortu
nately for them, fell into it themselves. They
may have supposed they were going to catch me
as well as some others. They ought to have re
membered the old story their grandmothers told
them when they took a fancy to catch a particular
bird, that if they could only sprinkle a little salt
on its tail they would be sure to get it, and how
delighted they were until the truth dawned upon
their infantile minds that tlie trouble was to get
near enough to sprinkle salt on. Great laughter
and applause.] They have been laboring under
a similar delusion recently. Tne truth is, they
got into a bad fix. and are a long ways off from
water; [Laughter.] How inconsistent has been
their course? At home they have professed eter
nal hostility to the extension of the institution of
of slavery—that Kansas should be a free State,
though every man, woman, and child therein
wished it to be otherwise, and that under no cir
cumstances were any more slave States to be ad
mitted into the Union. That was substantially
the platform upon which they stood in my own
country and throughout the northern States.—
But what have we seen recently? For mere
party purposes we have seen them stnltifiy them
selves by voting to admit Kansas as a slave
State, provided the people interested should de
cide in favor of it. How different this from tlie
position they have claimed to occupy before the
people! Who now can believe in their sincerity?
Are we to understand that they have abandoned
their former position, or was their late act a mere
political ruse! I suspect the latter. I fear they
are actuated by no higher motives than the mere
accomplishment of political aud party ends. _ I
object not to the act they have done; I only refer
to it to show their inconsistency, and that they are
ready to do anything in their power to embarrass
and injure, the democratic party. No wonder they
feel exasperated. No wonder they are so ready
to abuse and misrepresent, i know that I come
in for a full share, hut I care nothing for it. I
regard it as little as I do the passing breeze.—
Th *re is a prospect of the country's having a little
quiet and rest from slavery agitation, and hence
they are alarmed, for that is, of all things, what
they do not want. Agitation, discord, and con
fusion is their element. Give tlie country peace,
and they languish and die. They will make a
spasmodic struggle to keep up a disturbance.—
Already they are misrepresenting the bill, and it
is a remarkable fact, that almost every objection
they make is answered by their own record.—
Does it admit a slave State on condition? They
so voted themselves. Does the people of Kansas
through their delegates at Lecompton frame a
constitution which is republican in form The
House bill, for wliich they all voted, did exactly
the same tiling. So did the Senate hill. The lan
guage in that respect is the same in all of them.
Do they say that the bill offers a bribe in lands to
the people of Kansas to accept the Lecompton
constitution? So then did the Crittenden amend
ment for which they all voted: for the amend
ment is the same each, and i* no more than usu
ally given to new States, and which everybody
knows Kansas will get whether she conies in now
with tiiis constitution or hereafter under some oth
er. Have they no confidence iu the intelligence
of the American people, that they resort to these
expedients to get up a prejudice against this mea
sure? They will again be doomed, as they have
oftqimes been before, to disappointment. They
have openly avowed that they will assail this bill,
and iliey evidently mean that the slavery agitation
shall not cease, if they can help it, until it has
alienated the people of the North from the people
of the South, and sapped the very foundation of
Ihe republic. The people cannot fail to see tha
evil tendancy of those thingssuid the mischievous
nature of their designs, and will, I trust and be-
li. ve, hold them marauders upon the public peace
and consign them to inglorious defeat. [Applause.
Fellow-citizens, I am not to bo caught by any
anti democratic traps. It is not the first time that
such traps have been set for the purpose of catch
ing democrats. A few years ago an institution
sprung up in this country which endeavored to
destroy and wipe out the Democratic party. All
at once the enemies of deinoraacy became fearful
ly alarmed lest the Pope should come over and
take this costntry; and they baaded together with
secret oaths, and assembled at night when honest
men ought to have been in their beds, in barns,
and out houses, aud pit-holes, ami out-of-the-way
places, and they thought that by appealing to re
ligious and social prejudices, anti by grips aud
signs, and other tomfoolery,.they would entrap a
good many democrats. Well, perhaps they did
catch a few; moru than ibey were able to keep, but
they could not catch me. I never would join in
any crusade against a man on account of the place
of his nativity or bis religion. I avoided that
trap, aud i have also .avoided tbis recent trap; and
I intend to avoid ail such traps of a similar nature,
and I advise you all to do likewise. I was raised
in the western country; I have seen a great deal of
the wilderness and knowzomthingabout hunting.
I am pretty well up to all softs of traps iu the for
est. Many is the time that I have run the “var
mint” into his bole in a hollow tree, or in the
ground: and when I got him trrod, as we call it in
the West, I could always tell whether it was fur
or hair that I was after. I could toll what tlie ani
mal was by the signs Now when the black re
publicans set this hut trap aud invited me to come
into it, 1 s dd to myself I beg to be excused. I had
no objection to side along up near enough to look
into the entrance and see what the signs were; but
that was as far as I would go.
The sign* did not suit me. I saw neither fur
nor Iwir. but any quantity of wool, and then there
was an odor not at all agreeable to my olfactories,
[Laughter.j It reminded me of the home of an
animal I need not mention to you. [Laughter ]
I caught a glimpse of a figure within, very much
iu the resemblance of Horace Greely. It was long
lean, lank, cadaverous, white-livered, aud hollow
hearted. [Applause ] I knew that was no place
forme. And that 1 never could become a mem
ber of the republican household I never could
act with men so much governed by hatred for
one portion of their fellow-citizens, and who
would, I fear, strike down one entire section of this
country if they thought they only had the power
to do ao.
Feliow-eitizens, I claim to belong to a national
party. Although a citizeu of a free State, although
born in a free State,although having sympathy with
theicstitution3<if the free States, yet »t the same
time I can recognize anJ respect the rights and the
institutions of other States; and I am just as ready
to stand up to the last to vindicate the rights of the
people of the South a* lam to vindicate the rights
of the people of my ..tn [Chits] 1
tail you, t. liow-citiz os, ii. will be a sad day for
this country if this black republican party should
ever come into power. I do not pretend to say
but that many who belong to that party are actua
ted by pure motives: I Know that many of them
aro, but they are mistaken as to what would be the
effect of their doctrines when carried out. But
they never can be parried out fully, because the
God of Nature intended that they should not be.
They never can make a black man anything else
thau a black man. They never can elevate the
black race to any equality with the white race.—
Never by my vote or by my act will I aid them in
attempting to do it. I nevef want to see the day
come in this country when the black man shall sit
at the table with tlie white man, upon terms of per
fect equality I never want to see the day come in
tiiis country when the children of the black man
shall go into the school house and sit side by side
with the children of the white niun. Ineverwant
to see the day come in tiiis country when the black
man shall step up to the polls, upon terms of equal
ity with the white man, and deposit his vote. 1
never want to see the day come in this country
when the black man shallgo into the jury box and
sit in judgement upon tlie rights; the property, or
the life of the while man. [Cries of‘never!” 'nev-
’] These things, fellow-citizens, I do not want
to see. These things 1 a;n ready to resist to tlie
utmost of my ability. I want to sec no such doc
trines as these carried out in tiiis happy republic of
ours. I do not believe the institution of slavery is
the best institution in tlie world: nor do I bliove it
is the worst institution in the world There are ad
vantages about it, and there are disadvantages
about it. It is best that each section and each State
of the Union should be allowed to judge in tiiis
matter for itself. If tlie people of Indiana do not
choose to have tho institution of slavery, that is our
business—let us alone. If our neighbors of Ken
tucky clmose to have the institution of slavery,
that is their business—let them alouo—Their do
mestic institutions will not hurt us; our domestic
institutions will not hurt them. Let us all staud
together in tiiis groat confederacy as equals, each
Slate having the right to regulate its own domestic
institutions in its own way; aud let ns apply this
doctrine not only to Kansas, but to all tlie Territo
ries which may conn* into this Union for all time
to come. [Applause.] That is the doctrine of the
democratic party: ami when that party is struck
down the best interests of tho country will be
struck down, [voice that’s so!
Is the welfare of thirty millions of our own
white race to ho constantly endangered for the
sake of the few millions of negroes in this country
who an* better off to-day than any like number of
tlie same race in any other party of tho world?.—
Stop this agitation and let us act, not like visiona
ry fanatics, but practical men. Let well enough
alone, and leave the solution of this matter to time
and Providence. If we cannot stand upon the
doctrine of non-intervention, where can wo take
our staud in safety?
But fellow citizens, I will not detain you longer
I am here in this city as one of the representa
tives of a western State. It is a 'consetvafive
State; it is the one which gave tho largest majori
ty of any one iu tlie North for the President at
the other end of the avenue. We gave him our
cordial support at the Cincinnati Convention and
at tlie polls, and we are ready to support him now.
because we regard him as a patriot aud a states-!
man. We believe he has the best interest of his
country at heart; and fellow-citizens, I know that
it is the feeling of the people of Indiana that the
lute rest and rights of the South should never be
trodden under foot. We do uot intend to surren
der any of our rights, and we do not believe that
the people of the South desire to trespass upou
our rights; if they did we should rise up as one man
to resist it, and we would resist it to the last.—
while we shall be careful to protect our own rights
we shall be equally careful not to trespass upon
the rights of our brethren in other States. Upon
such broad, national grounds as this we can all
stand; and it we do, tiiis confederacy will continue
increasing in prosperity and glory. We must dis
card all these sectional ideas. We must cultivate
a greater feeling of respect and sympathy for each
other, and for those of different sections; and I
trust and hope this is the dawn of a new era. I
trust and hope we shall hear no more of these
sectional agitations. Every good man and iover
ot his country ought to set his face against them.
It is lamentable, blit true,that this sectional feel
ing has been taken advantage ofin both sections
ot the confederacy for the purpose of forwarding
the purposes of demagogues. Men injthe North have
claimed, and do claim, to be the peculiar friends ol
northern institutions. They manifest a violent
love for the institutions of the North, and au in
tense hatred for the institutions of tlie South, and
in that way they obtain, power. The same spe
cies of trick is resorted to in the South. What is
tlie result? You fiud coming up to the capital of
tlie nation men who are imbued with extreme no
tions; instead of wise statesmen, cool and dispas
sionate, in the halls of Congress, we see too many
extreme-men and scheming politicians. Now, as
good citizens, having the welfare of our country at
heart, we should set our fac-s against these things.
I speak the sentiment of tho entire democracy of
my State when I say that we will do battle faith
fully to protect the rights of the people of every
portion of the confederacy, and that we will stand
by the constitution and tlie Union to tlie last.
Thanking you for this manifestation of your
kindness, I bid you good night. [Enthusiastic

FLORIDA M AR CLOSED.
Volunteers Discharged.—Gen. Billy Boiclcgs and
the principal Chiifs departed for the B est!—Sam
Jones holds out, and wouldn't emigrate for tico
wagon loads of munnj'.
By the Florida mail which reached here by tlie
boat last evening, we received the l’ampa Penin
sula of the 8th iust, giving assurances that the
war had been effectually closed, though a few In
dians are still left in the country. The number is
estimated at 38 warriors and their families. The
Colonel Commanding lias issued orders for the dis
bandment of the volunteer force The Indians
who have coino in, amounting to 165 in all, have
embarked on the steamer Gray Cloud, and will be
carried immediately out of the country. Thirty-
eight warriors and their families are said to remain
behind, full enough, we think, for another long
Florida war, should they feel disposed to wage it.
\\ e copy tlie following from a communication
by Maj. F. N. Page, late Adjutant General, which
we iiud in tlie Peninsular:
On tlie night of tho 2d. Col. Garret returned,
bringing with him three of Sam Jones' men with
tiieir families, 9 iu all.
Sam Jones in person had removed off, positive
ly refusing to have any further intercourse, and
says, he would not emigrate J'ur two wagon loads of
money! Some of his men and women, followed
those of his party, leaving their camps, and ridi
culed them for selling themselves for money! On
the arrival of Col. Garrett at Fort Myers, Col. Rec
tor gave notice that oil ihe morning of the 4th,
the Indians intending to emigrate, should be
ready to embark in time to leave tlie same. At an
early hour ou the morning the fourth inst. all the
hostih s then at Fort Myers, together with the del
egation, embarked; the payment commenced and
at 11 o'clock we were under way steaming down
the river, with 122 hostile Indians, men, women
and children on board.
The number of hostile Indians emigrating vol
untarily. is 125, and in addition to the captives,
)t>5, all told, will bo taken from Florida.
The Indians left in the country are now iu three
parties; 1st, the boatmen, numbering 12 warriors
and one boy capable of bearing arms. This party
Billy leaves with reluctance, and asserts, positive
ly, that if they could have been found they would
have emigrated willingly. He hopes that they
will not be killed, and says they will notice a white
tiag. He says, further, 8um Jones is a fool and
does not care what becomes ot him. 2d, Sam Jones’
party, numbering 17 men with tiieir families, in
cluding Sam Jones; of these, aro 5 old men and
12 warriors. Sam Jones’ party originally num
bered 21 warriors—4 of them are on board 3d, tlie
Tallahassee*. The strength of this party is not
accurately known, but, from all the information
received, numbers 8 warriors with tiieir families.
Billy says he has not seen these Indians for five
years.
Of the 165 Indians emigrating, there aro 38men
and boys capable of hearing arms,and claimed by
Billy to bo 15 ya rs aud oyer, besides these two ne
groes capable of bearing arms, and. probably,
more billigerent than the hostilo Indians. The
remainder—127—-are w omen and children (boys
and girls.)
“1 omitted to mention that the father of one of
the Boat party is on beard, and that several others
of tills party are his relations—nephews and
nieces. Ho confirms Biliy’s statement that if
found, this party would certainly come iu. lie
exhibits great anxiety for tiieir safety.
The Grey Cloud arrived at Egiuont C p. m., on

Effects of Excessive Tea-Drinking.—Tiie friend
who supplied this hashish ox|«*rience also supplied
us w ith the follow rag account of the result of an
excess in tea-drinking. Tho resemblance to some
of tiie most peculiar effects of hashish in large
doses will -trike all who read of them. “Being
under an unusual stress of work, wliich demand
ed great activity of brain, I had resource, as usual
to tea for excitement. For sevarai days succes
sively I took a basin of very strong tea four or
five times a day. One night, as I was sitting
a'one with my mother find writing, I felt a sudden
dizziness overcome me immediately after a draught
of tea stronger than any 1 had taken yet ad re
quested ray motherto get me a glass of sherry from
the sideboard. Consciousness of surrounding ob
jects left into a dream, which I can- only describe
bv saying it was iudescrihediy terrific. It seemed
to last for ages, and I awoke with the horror of a
soul which load been for a eternity in hell. My
mother was standing before roe with the sherry.—
I asked her how long I had been insensible. She
asked me what I meant; she bad just returned
with the sherry, not having been absent half a
minute.’ 1 —National Rseitw-.

Traitor Mr. Editor is a hard word, and dinn-ac ■
(it merited) those to whom it was applied f r „J,
i ,.e t-ict that when au individual ii proven to b* a
traitor, he is unworthy of public or private trust
yes, unworthy the confidence of iliat mother who
gave him bull.; yet sir—(and I am truly sorrv it
is the case) we have traitors as it were in tha
very midst of us; and I regret it still more that
theseSmftheni traitors have sympathisers even in
old l. (.son At a tune when our own loved South
stood in need of all the aid which her soma could
give her, a traitorous faction^ them have faltered
and gone over to the avowed enemies of the lan '
that, made them all they are, and through mUtakj
liHs ln)tioifid th»*m with it«s confidence.
I had hoped that those “South Americans”
who voted with the Black Republicans against
the admission ot Kansas under her legal consti
tution, would sec the error of their course and*
give the Sonth that aid which she much stood iu
net-dot; yet sir, this hope was destined to be
crushed, for on tue vote (in both lrnises) in con
gress for a conference comm ttee, I find the names
of these eicrlit “South American**’ un record, and
the suras side of the enemies of the South. Lot
infamy and disgrace be as deeply and ti, rcelv hurl
ed upon them, as upon the traitorous Arnold of
our earlier days.
I have said that traitor was a hard word ren
during those to whom it is applied (ii it be merit!
ed) unworthy of all confidence. Among other
tilings a traitor is defined to lie one who “violates
his allegiance and betrays his country” one who
aids his enemy in conquering his country. Now-
sir, I am fully justifiable in brauding with the
name of traitor those South Americans, who stand
on tlie record with and for the “enemies of their
country”; they iiavo “violated tiieir allegiance”
to the South, and have “aided tlie enemy” in an
effort to “conquer their country.”
It is a maxim tlie truth of wliich has been veri
fied by the lapse of more than eighteen centuries
that, “By its fruit ye siiail judge the tri e.” What
are tlie fruits produced by the acts of these “Smith
Americans?” Betrayal of their country and its
rights; betrayal of confidence and trust, and keep
ing open a field of sectional strife and animositv
that 1ms shaken tiiis Union to its very centre, and
ifpmsisted in, 1 fear will cause tlie downfall of
tins government. Tiiese men are aware o( this
fact, and yet they persist in their traitorous course
and seek to increase this strife-whicli all good
men deprecate. All flic evils which will flow,
all tlie blood that may be shed in Kansas, and I
fear throughout tho Union, will be justly chargea
ble to them, and them alone will freedom and hu
manity hold responsible.
Y'ou remember that “poor Tray” was badly
whipped for being found in bad company; what
shall he done with those who are not only found
iu bad company, but acting in concert with them?
They are endeavoring by all means in their power,
unconstitutional as they may be, to make free States
out of all our Territories. Their (the Black Re
publicans hands) are died with the blood of unof
fending citizehs; the wails of widow-sand orphans
have gone up to Heaven in one loud united voice,
asking for redress and justice. They raise up the
cry of fraud. Boor innocent immaculate creatures;
their voice has been Stifled they say; yes and I
can tell them that it is stifled by the blood of un
offending citizens.
It is a part of their programme as I have said
above, to make all the Territories free States and
farther I will say that, by this means increase their
numerical strength in our national halls; and
finally they expect to reach the climax of tiieir fol
ly and fanaticism, by abolishing slavery where it
now exists and forcing us to submit.
What is the evidence? Mr. Toombs in speak
ing on the admission of Kansas said, “ When them
is slavery in it (the constitution) they strike for
freedom and the will of the people; but w hen it
comes to a free constitution no “Wilmot proviso
man, no man who has stood up here for the right
of Congress to prohibit slavery forever in tha
Territories and States call stand up without play
ing the hypocrite meanly and contemptibly and talk
of cramming constitutions down people’s throats
* * * * The Wilmot proviso man
holds that you can prohibit slavery forever in tha
Territories. That means that you can cram free
dom, whether the people want it or not, but take
care how you cram slavery. To which Senator
Wade replied “That is it.”
Now for their company and measures. One of
the company is tho notorious Anson Burlingame,
who said of tiieir measure, (the substitute) and
acting in that spirit (viz, the power of Congress
to prohibit slavery in the Territories) I, for one,
am prepared to sustain the substitute offered by
the distinguished Senator from Kentucky * * ",
Tlie Lecompton Constitution makes it a slave
State ’ Yet, rather than vote for the constitution
which would have made Kansas a slave State,
they chose to vote for the constitution which
would have made it a free State, and thus by their
votes “aiding an enemy iu conquering their coun
try.” Mr. Burlingame not only eulogized those
Southern traitors, but compared the notorious
H. W. Davis to Pinkney and Wirt; shades ot the
departed dead, what a comparison. In eulogizing
Giddings he says, “Our great chieftain here (Mr.
Giddings) with this white hairs who iias stood
twenty years the champion ot liberty, we will bear
with affliction to the record—to this determination
has come, after much thought. At last lie felt that
his principles required him so to vote, aud obey
ing the impulses of an honest and patriotic and
not fanatical heart, he points the way of duty and
victory ” Yes, Mr. Giddings, who for twenty
years has been the avowed and uncompromising
enemy of the South, and who still so avows him
self, after much thought, came to the determination
to vote for a measure introduced by a Southern
Senator, and that measure affecting all that is
vital to slavery. Why did he come to the deter
mination to vote for this measure? Because, after
much thought his principles required him so to
vote; that is to say after he was entirely satisfied,
that this substitute would make Kansas a fneo
.State, he determined to vote, for it.
And w ho is Mr. Giddings? To explain his posi
tion I need not refSf to any old record ; his late
speech in Congress is sufficient to excite the scorn
and indignation of all patriots. In speaking of
slaveholders, he characterizes tln-m as infidels;
hear it. oil ye 8outh American Gideonites, and
know that tlie South will put it to the account ot
your eternal shame. “This infidelity” says ho
"within tlie last half century has consigned inoro
than a million of innocent and unoffending victims
to untimely graves. The number is far greater
than has perished under tlie infidelity of Franco
in all past timo. But this comparison of Ameri
can with French infidelity does not do justice to
the latter.” Yes, according to Mr. Gid.iiiigs you
ail are a disgrace to those French infidels who
abolished the Sabbath and the holy laws of mar
riage, notwithstanding you profess to be Christian
people. What think you gentlemen, American
Slaveholders of the South of your new ally ? He
says that you employ usurpation and brute forco
for the purpose of extending and supporting- slave
ry. And again, he says that tlie slaveholder, to
God’s higher law is an infidel. He not only char
acterizes slaveholders as infidels, but considers
that they may be deprived of their slave property
without compensation therefor; for says he “iho/
(tiie people) may by use of the ballot box, so modi
fy aud shape the administration government as
best to secure the inalienable rights of each and
every individual; or, in other words if a majority
of the people in the United States say that y-m
have no right to own slave property, your t :ln
therefor is null and void; notwithstanding tho
Constitution says “that no person shall be depriv
ed of life, liberty or property, except by due pro
cess ot law.”
Not satisfied with thus attempting to violate t.ic
Constitution which he has sworn to support, ho
goes on .and makes an onslaught upon the. su
preme Court, the highest judicial tribunal of trie
laud. The Supreme Court says he, ‘‘was selected
as tho instrument for officially avowing tins un
disguised infidelity” that is was selected lor tue
preservation of our rights, rights wliich he terms
infidelity.
Part of one paragraph is true enough, lie snis.
“This issue, (the slavery) involves the entire
American people. So it does. All denominations
of men are now constrained to cast their influence
on one side or tlie other,” that is for or again*
slavt*rv. He has cast his against it, and w e have
seen'that eight “South Americans, (representa
tives) have cast their iuduence with him ana
against their own country.
Now sir I have quoted those paragraphs, not be
cause I believed tiiere was any justice or con*!*'
rationality in them, but to show the aims and ob
jects of tiiat sectional party of which Gidding-] is
high priest, aud to show the company in wnn
