From the Montpelier ( Vt.) Patriot. Excellent Reasons. Xae following excellent letter is from the Rev. '>■ L wejoy, of Massachusetts. It was published the Boston Post, of February 13. fie has been Whig all his life, but now, like all candid and nriotir men whose prejudices are not allowed to :rrol their judgment, he Las resolved to go with • Democratic party. And he gives the very best : reasons lor this resolution. His correct review of . history of the Democratic party affords abun .ii eviedence that upon its success depends the highest interests of the country; and when men ■ s learning, candor, intelligence and disinter dness come to this conclusion aud feel compell dt : adopt this course, others may well hesitate they give their support to factions whose v.u policy and career tend to *he overthrow of f ijstitution and the disruption ot the Union. At ail candid, redecting, patriotic men who have M.-etof.irc opposed the Democratic party, give ; s letter a careful aud unprejudiced perusal, s : then act as their own consciences may die hfessn. Eiiton: As my old friends of the Boston . . ’■ter express some curiosity to know how 1 aid feel on the Democratic platform, I will en ,:=”or to satisfy them on this point. I presume v urosity receives edge from the anticipation on v f ‘ rt that many citizens, perhaps themselves • cumber, will be under the necessity, in the ( the coming year, to take “loco foco” , ;; . ..'A t! course, they would like to know their : , rj a aud effect. I own up to having swallow* ( .j ::: Democratic creed, “ simple and pure,” as ... Free 'it diplomatists say. Like all medicine, -.ibesuticiuation is worse than ths operation. I in. i’end hereafter to act and vote with the Democratic par -, fur the following reasons, and I hope few lines will find the Courier “enjoying the istts blessing." in the first place, that is the only party which ■ V exists, which has a history, principles*or poli l.s great antagonist who contested the victory *,:a ii in many a well-fought battle, is no more, natnes of its statesmen are embalmed in the of the past, but it has no present and no 1 -are! One bv on;; all its strongholds have been . ... -d, its artillery silenced, iu leaders in the ;n;y of retirement, and the rank and file seat hr forming in powerless factions. The !> aocraey has a history, which of itself is a tower • grength. and a presage of future good to the cany. Born amidst the strong throes of the p. ytlar heart, its cradle was rocked by storms, and . j nrst triumph was in place the philosopher and « ;sai.in of Mouticello at the head of the nation, i was done against the yrestige of the name of A!,ms, in spite of the most accomplished eloquence, rid strength of wealth, and the possession of pow • : ami plate. Timid men predicted the prostration : the altars of religion, the overthrow of morality an! ordinary course of justice and order, the reign t infidelity and red republicanism. None of these things came to pass; and I have lived to see and ’■ear the very men who were then in the opposi tion, and other* who wore their mantle, praise to very skies this very Thomas Jefferson, and sun to be Democrats of his school. The Democrats joined the issue, earned on the rtf of idl'd-’l4, and won its victories, in the face of an opposition, which, if it did not go over the line, approached the fiery border of that volcano where patriotism is swallowed up by treason. The country was ruined then, so said the opposition; a now all parties claim the honors, as * all have j tharedin the beneficial results of that war. The :,-u groat battles of the Democracy have been wuh their opponents in matters of national policy. In every instance, so far as I rocolloct, they have only wen a victory, but have extorted the ad- ' vOOD, even from opponents, that they were . read Sung and tedious debates in Congress, nont tariffs, before I well knew the meaning of ‘ word; and it ended bv one party claiming a . 'sr.lT Ur revenue,” and the other a “revenue ta- | The contest has been abandoned, the lie- j aicratic ground conceded. “Internal improve- ( aiani*"’ was once the war-cry of a party. The mviction \s all but universal, that private enter prise is nwre sagacious and economical than na tional suoerviffon. The suggestion made by Mr. Otis to Mr. Webster, when he hung fire for a word —“there is no national r-ad but—but—‘the road to • tuin'" is more truthful than sarcastic. A few ! Cumberland roads would fiavo ruined the treasury of the countrv. A national ißank was affirmed to be an absolute } necessiri'. \-t Mr. Webster lived to say “it was an obsolete idea.” The Democratic party have al- . ways favored the extension of territory. It is . fraught, said the opposition, with the most immi- j mint pent. And now the classic and accomplished Everett shakos Cuba into the lap of the nation as g»miy as her tropic fruits fall to the earth. W hen Gen. Jackson was a candidate for the Presidency, the records of antiquity and the pages ' i m riven times, front Nimrod the mighty hunter, j down to Ii naparte the first consul, were laid under , •■intribution to showtheperil to republics of uniting , the civic wreath with the sword of the military hero j —but in less than ten years after this,the same party which brought such an array of argument against j the hero of New Orleans, seized an aged General by the euphonious name of the place where he won , • vie; >ij over the savages, and passed him by his title aud on the wave of popular song into the vhite house. The experiment was so successful that it was twice repeated ; the last breaking down 'sthesweet Irish brogue and the rich German ae eeats. Out of this brogue and accent there sprung f r rtt another party which has swallowed the Whig party—a tire out of the bramble w:: ‘ it has devoured the tall edears of Lebanon. ’Unt party now but the Democractic party 6; fii its principle* or proclaims its policy ? The , American party has one platform for the latitude • Philadelphia, another for Springfield. One it is emerged in a Republican convention, and tbo next week its own clarion notes are heard ' •'"'■rv secret lodge, and echoed back front.every a and village. It will vote for no man who r es allegiance to a foreign power—by some this judmitred to be a religious test, by others denied. ~..r0 all Catholics are shut out from office, in a ' Jthern State they are elected to office under the s:tse banner. At one time it is strictlv sectional, s ' another intensely national. Now moat tho • "ighly anti-slavery, and then non-intervention is i- law of action. When their trumpet gives so many and such uncertain sounds, who can have winfi’dence in them ? In regard to the subject of bavery, the conviction has been growing stronger sad stronger in mv own mind ever since 1 -sis, that we can do no good to master or slave bv attempt ing to act upon it politically. The old liberty pur tv, which up to that point, acted on principle, was translated, not to heaven, but to the purgatory of . barnburner ;sm, by the splendid eloquence of Charles samti'-r and the winning smiles of Martin and John Vau Buren. From that day to this, it has been known as Freesoilisra, true Democracy, coa lition, native Americanism, Republicanism, chang ■ng position a3 often as its name. It has been used . tn fact as a make weight, either for partv or for men, »s circumstances required. Now nearly ali parties confess to be national, and affirm that they willabide ‘-7 the provisions of the Constitution and let slavery aione. tke compromise of 132-3 has been repealed, and tie whole new Territory opened to settlers, and question of slavery to be left to the actual set --s when they form their Constitution. There are '"v ‘"W who would vote for the restoration of this utpromise. Both parties prefer the chance of ‘s..i they may gain, rather than the certainty of ‘ dt restoration. Any one can ha- iiy see the very difference it can make, either to the slaves or ‘ reunify, whether the old States of Maryland, "gina, and Kentucky shall continue slave States, ' r •‘drained to supply new regions, while they -re left gradually, but surely, to become free. A '. !R o North has now presented the subject to •' "b in all its phases, morally, politically and as they have confessedly no power to emancipate a 3 -* vc without the consent of the '' Here they are—would it not be wiser and .7' r ,0 leave them for a time to their own reflec “-•-w and the silent operations of a far-seeing and “indef-working Providence, than to drive this to a civil war aud a division of the Union ? "lave will cain nothing by such a catastrophe, h-,r! iaa , c - ’! mr J a,l< i tbo world will lose all the ,!.. r 7V h;i; uan K upon our success. Nine weeks of ' '.; V ,‘ :1 Ahe House of Representatives are nine “ ' “’T V :0 f s upon the heart of the nation, aud nine -meat shadows upon the light that we were shed “jgahroad upon other lands. Actional strife was one of the rocks of which warned us. Anarchy is the rock on H ki- e enc * ent republics were wrecked. If the vm..-., lcan party succeeds, of which there is small Mbilitv, we are thrown upon the former; if the A®»n*«n party suocteda. wa »hall b»v* aa intaq- I minablejjwar of sects and creeds—a war of races and clans. Tn civil strife it is hard to say which is most to be deplored, those who survive or those who perish in the first conflict. The wound to the t 1 nation is incurable. The arrows of hatred and re venge will rankie in the hearts of manv genera* turns If the war in Kansas shall break out afresh - and flame over those prairies, no mortal can teli where it trill end. No matter which party is the i aggressor, which is most to blame, the result to the nation will be the same. It is time that a strong voice went forth, and a strong arm out stretched to hush tins civil strife. Now. what par ty but the Democratic can accomplish this’ I know the present administration is receiving un ; measured censure, both for what it does and for what it neglects to do. But I remember that this ! has been the fate of every administration within mv memory and indeed of every one that has oc cupied the places of power since the formation of the government, with the exception of that of Washington and Monroe. The gates of the tem ple ot war at Rome were only twice shut in the course of seven centuries. The gates of violence, political strife and bitter abuse have been eloseii oniv twice m seventy years, almost equal to seven ot ancient centuries in the progress of nations Indeed the violent, abuse of “the powers that be, is one of the luxuries of which the American ; people are never willing to deny themselves. It is no more evidence that a man is wrong because he is abused, than it was of the guilt of the victims of Louis the XL because they were hanged. The execution was always pointed at as conclusive of their guilt. The present age and posterity are ri- i vals—whoever sacrifices to one must lose the other, i Nearly ali our national administrations have been : severely condemned while in power, and praised after a few years. Vow, 1 see no other peaceable solution of the difficulties by which we are surrounded, but in this ancient and strong party “In the dark night bv ! which we are surrounded," I see no other star that I can guide the ship of State into the haven of safety. Will my gooH friend of the Courier, therefore, i whom I sincerely thank for his uniform personal courtesy—whose fidelity to his flag I admire— j who-,e deft nee of the Russians 1 applaud, will he ponder and review the whole subject and speak his mind, whether it ts not best for those who find themselves without a home, in the breaking up and confusion of old party lines, had not better j take shelter under the Democratic flag ; whether i is not best to make that party strong again3t all j factions, restore to it the Government entire, and ; help it to conduct the nation on to higher aud wi der cycles of prosperity and greatness ? Done at Cambridge, this 11th dav of February, 1856. /. C. Lovejot, Dalton aiul its Railroad Connections, j Not long since we congratulated our resident subscribers on the steady iucrease of our citv, and i the marked improvement which the last two or three years have produced in and around Dalton, for several years past, we have been looking for ward to the completion of the line of railroads through East. Tennessee and Virginia as the dawn j of a new era in the prosperity of Dalton. In Julv 1 last we gave the distances of* those several roads, completed, and uncompleted between this place and New \ork. Since then we have received a j copy of a recent report of the President of the East Tennessee and Virginia Railroad Company, and an abstract of the last report of the board of j public works of the State of Virginia, submitted to the Legislature uow in session. We have watch ed the progress of those roads with much interest; but must adm:t that we have been most agreeable surprised to learn that they are much further ad vanced than we anticipated, leaving but little to bo done to close up the gap in the ltue of railroads, which, in a very short time will give us a direct . communication* with Washington, Baltimore, Phil- ! adelphia aud New York. Those roads are, fas given by us in July;: L The East Tennessee and Georgia road, extend ing from Dalton to Knoxville 110 miles. r ‘2- The East T. A Virginia road, from Knoxville to the Virginia line 123 “ 3. The Virginia A Tenn. road, from the Virginia line to Lynchburg 50u “ 4. The Orange A Alexandria road, from Lynchburg to Alexandria, and Washing- , ton ; 157 miles, making the whole dis tance from Dalton to Washington 597 “ 1 And from Dalton to New York. 432 “ The first of these roads is already completed and ' in operation. The second is graded and cross lic-s laid ready for the iron ; Itlfij of iron have been laid ! ■ and were in use on the 29th November last, and the 1 track laying was progressing with groat rapidity. , • It is also the intention of this Company to com- ' meuce laying track on both ends of their road as soon as the Virginia and Tennessee road No. 3 mention- s ed above) is completed, which will be done in a few months. The State of Virginia owns 3-sths of the stock of tins road, and have already expended ; $1,800,000 in its construction, one hundred and 1 sixty miles is completed aud in operation, and the remaining forty-live miles are graded, and tho track laving rapidly progressing. We give the J length of the Orange and Alexandria road, as ta- 1 ken front the report of the Board of public works, at one hundred aud fifty-seven miles, and varies 1 the figures slightly, from our estimate of distances ' last Summer. Os this road ninetv-seveu miles are in operation, aud the remaining far advanced. So 1 that we may safely estimate that in eleven or eigh teen month's from this time, tho whole line will bo [ completed. V» e sliail then ba able to go from Dalton to New ! York, at the present rate of southern Railroad travel, say twenty miles per hour, in forty hours, ' instead of four days as now ; and at the rate of ' travel ou the Erie, Hudson River, New York Cen tra!, and somo of the Massachusetts roads, viz: j forty miles per hour, the trip can be made from here to New York in less than a day. Our readers will observe that the distance from ® hero to Lynchburg is only four hundred and forty miles ; being 95 miles more than from Dalton to f Urancliville, S. C. The traveller going North from , Atlanta, will gain about eighteen hours bv taking ; this route instead of the route by Augusta, Branch ville and Wilmington. Ho will avoid the sickly * swamps of the Pedeo. and the tiresome and monot- , onous pine barrens of South aud North Carolina. ' His eve will be delighted by the most beautiful and varied mountain and valley scenery, and one of the | tines; farming country’s in the world. Those who , have not had the opportunity of witnessing similar g phenomena elsewhere, can now imagine the great , change, which the opening of these roads will pro- ' 'luce throughout their whole length. We have c witnessed something like it, as the result of open- - ing the State Road. A very few years ago. this country was a wilderness, and in possession of the , Cherokee*. Those who visit it now, and behold its lovely scenery, delightful climate, productive soil, and bountiful supplv of excellent water, can ? better understand why the Cherokees were so un- * willing to leave it, and struggled so hard for per mission to remain. Yet still it remained a wilder- ' ness for several years after tho removal of the Cher okees, until ft wise policy led the State to construct , the Western and Atlantic road. It was then the for- , ,-sts began to disappear, farms to be opened, and cit ies to spring up like magic. But great as the change has been, the effect of opening the other line of roads „ will be much more marvelous and wonderful. Heretofore the tide of settlement and population has followed the sea coast and the great rivers of the West. The Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri and J other Western rivers have been explored and their banks settled, while the more healthy aud equally i j productive valleys lying between those rivers and the sea coast, have remained comparatively * unknown, and attracting no enterprise, save that , of the tiller of the soil. J The opening of this line of roads, North and ; South, will ** bo like turning the Mississippi , through the valley, and Dalton being eiluated at : j tin; crossing of the two lines, North and South ( and East and West, ought to be able to secure a large share of the wealth that will be carried along j ana deposited by the streams of commerce on those roads. We have now every natural advan tage of position and distance. Let us improve them. No on-j can look upon a map of the United States, and trace the line of railroads which ; we have sketched from New York to Dalton, without being impressed wiih two facts: One that the Dalton and Gadsden railroad must be , built, to give an outlet to the route of travel . i over thio great central line, and the other, that j Dalton from its location and railroad connec tions, wiii thus become ihe grand centre and crossing point of two of the most important tines of railroad in the Union. —Dalton Times. commercial!

Mays—Messrs. Adams, Bell of Tenn., Coliamer, j Fessenden, hoot, Hale. Harlan, Houston, Seward, , aumuer, Wade and Wilson—total 12. Mr. Bell, of Tennessee, stated that he had voted j ugmnst the bill because it was not specific enough j Its a PP r °priations, and also because he thought l, n< ‘ SUC J‘ exigency now as to require it. lie did not contribute to the impression that this appropriation was necessary in consequence of the j present little shock of war. Mr. W eiler was willing to make the bill more j s P fcC ‘iie. He did not apprehend war, but while .n<; treasury was full it was well to make prepara j for any emergency which might arise, j Mr. beward would vote for the bill if it was i amended so as to make definite appropriations lor • specific purposes. Mr. Toucey hoped the chairman of the commit tee would move a reconsideration of the vote just j taken, in order to make such amendment as would j | meet the wishes of other Senators. The vote was then reconsidered, and Mr. Weller submitted an amendment making specific appro j priations, which was agreed to. Mr. Hunter then spoke in favor of increasing the national defences, so as to be prepared lor at i tacks from every' quarter. Mr. Cass said that England had suffered so mucb ! in the Russian war that it was not at all unlikely that she might try to retrive her reputation by a war on the western Hemisphere. He addressed [ the Senate at some length, in relation to the ag gressions and the audacity of the English govern- . meut, quoting front the London Times a recent ar- I tic.it; against this country, and making a sarcastic j running commentary thereon. Mr. <7. alluded to the proposition of the British i : government to refer to arbitration the Central j American controversy, and said that he did not ; fee now such a question could be referred to ar- i ut ration. It was not a question of boundrv or j j indemnity, but a mere question about the meaning | of a word. No arbitrator, whether he understood the English language or not, could tell us what I the word occupy means, better than we know 1 already. j Mr. Hale opposed the bill on several grounds i : He did not believe iu the propriety of the national armories. He could not see no more necessity of leaving the national arms manufactured in nation al !naehim:*sho;>3, than of having the uniforms for the army made in national tailor’s shops. Nor did he admit the necessity of an increase of the effi ciency of the army at this time. Iu order to show i the iittle dependence to be placed on foreign news ; papers, he read an extract from the London 2eU- i graph, who represented Seward and Foot as being j extremely belligerent, and another from “Lu Pa- j ! ('■‘V Louis Napoleon’s organ, w hich represented I Mr. Banks as a black man, and said that iu his t double quality of a colored man and an Abolition- t ist, ho has inspired profound disgust in the South- j om members. Tlieso extracts caused great ■ laughter. Mr. Iverson defended tho bill. Hethought there i was imminent danger of war with England, and i did not beliove that the administration or the i American people were iu favor of an arbitration of j the treaty question. Messrs, hell and Seward defended themselves from charges of inconsistency made by Mr. Iver son. .After a brief debate as to order of business, the Senate adjourned, leaving tbe bill to come up to- ! morrow as unfinished business. House. -Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, reported the ; consular and diplomatic and the army smirooria- i lion bill. Mr. Crawford addressed tho House to show the - impropriety of the committee on elections being : 1 empowered to send for persons aud papers in the J Kansas election case. ! 1 Mr. Wheeler offered a resolution, which was j 1 adopted, instructing the post office committee to j inquire into the expediency of erecting public i * buildings at Boston, Philadelphia, Charleston and ! 1 New \ urk, suitable for post offices and United 11 States court-rooms, in accordance with the sugges- 1 tion in the President's message. i < Mr. Crawford argued that Gov. Reeder represent- i ed a revolutionary movement outside of the regu- 1 I larlv established government of Kansas. ’ i Mr. Campbell, of Pennsylvania, advocated the ; resolution of the committee, accusing those on the ; I other side of an intention of stifling such an hires ligation as is necessary to a proper understanding 1 , of the question. ' j ( Mr. Smith, . f Alabama, contended that the com- ! mittee on elections have abandoned the issue raised j j by Gov. Reeder, and call of the House to give them | * power to contest the legality of the election of ■ every member of tho Legislature on Kansas, thus ’ sheltering their real purposes behind the shadow ! ? of one man, who had proved himself an arch agi- | tator, and, by various speculations, committed such I enormities as to induce the executive to remove j 1 him from his high position. Mr. Kunkle advocated the resolution to send for | persons and papers. During his remarks he said ! i notwithstanding intimidations, emigrants from < Pennsylvania will continue to go to Kansas. If the ; time should come when an invading force from ) Missouri shall interfere with their rights, it would , be proved that they would maintain their rights, j even to death. Mr. Oliver, of Missouri, in behalf of the people of that State, said that if emigrants from the East go : j to Kansas for the purpose of controlling the elec tions in open defiance of the principles of the Ne braska ami Kansas bill, and prejudicing the insti- j 1 fution of slavery iu Missouri, strife, contention, 1 and perhaps bloodshed will result. The people of < Missouri are conscious of their rights, with nerve j 1 enough to maintain them. Mr. Kunkle said that in Pennsylvania they j formed no emigrant'aid societies. The people go ; * tn Kansas of their own accord; and have a right to go. ‘ : t Mr. Oliver—Was not a society of that kind form- t ed here by members of Congress before the Kan- i gas bill passed? i Mr. Kunkle—l am not here to say whether i such societies were formed iu Massachusetts or j elsewhere. Mr. Oliver—Does not the gentleman know that I Massachusetts chartered a company for controlling j c the institutions of Kansas, with a capital of five | millions of dollars. Mr. Kunkle—l know nothing about it. Settlers * are there now, and others are on their way. Not- 1 withstanding the violence enacted in Kansas, j freemen are not easily frightened, lie would tell the gentleman that there were no men on earth who will more firmly maintain their rights tbau , Pennsylvanians, and sell tiieir lives more dearly. He i -Mr. Oliver: must not involve them in illegal * acts. I ] Mr. Oliver explained. Whenever it is seen, he £ said, that the elections and institutions of Kansas are controlled by bona fide settlers, he and every man in the South were willing to abide by ihe ; . will of the majority, though it may be against the j ' institution of slavery. Tfiis is the position of his : ! constituents and of the whole South. If troubles ensue, they will be mainly attributable to tbe in- < tenneddling of tiie Emigrant Aid Societies of the East. A message was here received from the President asking an appropriation of 1?300,000 for the sup pression of hostilities in Oregon. Adjourned. shippin gTn ews. j ARRIVALS FROM CHARLESTON.

Try it, when you will be convinced that no preparation possesses in so high a degree, its perfect anodyne qualities. Its action is prompt and effective, it penetrates j the tlesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, re storing use to limbs paralysed tor years, and where the flesh has wasted away, leaving nothing but j skin and bone, excites a healthy action, causing ; new flesh to grow out and fill up the shrivelled part. It restores the synovial fluid or joint water, and this is the reason why it has been so success ful in diseases of the joints. In affections of the Spine, Liver, Lungs and Kidneys, this great reme dy stands before any other ever produced. For ague cake or enlargement of the spleen, it is a spe cific. For any internal inflammation, you will find it gives great relief. It has no equal in the world for Rheumatism—also, cramps, swelling, numb ness, weak joints, Spine and Chest, pains, wounds, chilblains, burns, sore throat, bites of insects and reptiles, salt rlieum, warts, corns, mange, and in deed nearly all diseases which require an internal application, and many others, are greatly benefitted In it.
