Near Nashville, » Friday Morning, June 13, 1350. i To it<e Editors of the ( nion tv American : Gentlemen: I attended the ratification meetiug n Thursday niglit, and should have addressed it when called upon, hut for the lateness of the hour, and the belief that the able addresses alieadv made, had rendered further speaking unnecessary. I had gone to that meeting not on I v to sigu.fv tny cordial approbation of the nominations made, hut to allude to the stale and obsolete charge now revived against Mr. liuclianan, that in early life he was a Federalist, and so much of a Federalist, as to have declared “that if he knew he had a drop of Democratic blood in his veins, lie would let it out.” 1 intended to remind my countrymen that if he ever was a Federalist, that it was more than forty years ago, and that even then he was ju-t such a Federalist as was ready and did actually raise a ; volunteer company, and march to the defence of his country. What a pity that we didn’t have a few more Federalists of that sort in tlie trying time of the war of 1*12? As it relates to that wretched slander about the drop of Democratic blood in his reins, 1 intended to'read the proud and triumphant documcnl which 1 now send you for publication—adocument which I have long had in my possession, and on i which 1 have often defended Mr. Buchanan with ' entire success in many of inv public speeches in Tennessee and elsewhere. 1 desire it to be imme diately republished, iu older that the public mind may not become poisoned and corrupted bv a ; slander that has long since been refuted in Penn- ! srlvutiia. Yours, respectfully, A iitov V. Brown. From the Harrishuru y Pa.) Reporter. We observe by the report of Congressional pro • dings, in the National lnteUiyencer, of March th, that ou the previous Friday evening our Sen utor Buchanan was assailed by Mr. Morgan, of ; Ner> York, and Mr. Cooper, of Pennsylvania, upon ♦he floor of the House of Representatives, with the charge of once having said in a 4th of .lull ..ration, “that if lie thought lie had one drop of • Democratic blood in his veins he would let it out.’’ This charge ivas promptly contradicted by Mr. i liamsey and General Keni, of the Pennsylvania I delegation. It is not our intention at present to make any j comments upon this ridiculous storv, which first i riginated, in 1523, immediately preceding Mr. Buchanan's fifth election to Congress, hut merely J to republish the letter of that gentleman to the ed- j itor of the Pennsylvania Inquirer and Courier, da ted February 27th‘, 1338, contradicting the charge { . i explicitly and unequivocally as to silence the -lander, it was supposed forever. This letter was elicited by a similar charge, made in debate by , Mr. Cox, a member of the Convention, for amend ing the Constitution of Pennsylvania, in May, 1837. ; It was then promptly repelled, before the Conven tion, by the present Judge Porter and Emanuel C. Reigart, both members of that body - the first a prominent Democrat, and tin* latter one of the an ti Masonic party in Pennsylvania. Had this senti ment, <-r anything like il, ever been uttered by Mr. Buchanan, at a “political meeting in the court house in Lancaster,” these two gentlemen, from their position and character, must either heard it themselves, or immediately heard it from others; both of i hemTreing residents of that city when it was alleged to have been uttered, and Mr. Reigart having resided there ever since. The charge would have specially attracted public attention at that time, as Mr. Buchanan was a successful candidate tor the State Legislature, both in October, 1814, and October, 1315. Mr. Cox, not satisfied the contradict ton of Mr. with , Potter and Mr. Reigart,endeavored to obtain of the charge, and renewed in a letter to the Editor of the “ I‘ennsyleoni luquier d' Courier," da ted February 24, and published in that paper of February 26tli, I*BB, the testimony which lie then adduced in support of it, and all which could be collected after a laborious search, consists of the certificate of a certain Anthony McGlinn, and an extract of a letter from George Ford, jr., both of which, it will be perceived, arc referred to in the following letter of Mr. Bucliauan. T< the KFJrr . f tin Penm-ylcania lnquit-rr dr Con- 1 rier : Washington CtTT, Feb. £7, 1333. Sir: I have ibis moment perused the letter of ,1. F. Cox, published in yesterday's Jwjuin r. His late official station, as a member of the convention, induces me to notice the stale slander which he again repeats, ati-,l'which 1 note prontmnee f»he ut terly ami abs ’lot, 1 y false, no matter from what source it may ini a proceeded, or shall proceed. 1 never did, upon any occasion, public or private, whether at the Court-house in Lancaster, or else where, declare that, “ if 1 knew 1 had a drop of Democratic blood in my veins, 1 would let it out," or anv words to that effect. This rldieubnit story ■ d-inait a shadow of JuundatiOii. The first version of the story was, that I lmd used the expression in an oration which 1 had de livered, at the Court House in Lancaster, on the 4th of July, 1815. The oration itselt disproved this assertion, and then, after Mr. Cox had made it . subject of debate before the Reform Convention, in May last, one of the papers at Harrisburg so- , 1. ninly announced that the expression had been used by me, on the [floor of the House of Repre seutatives, in this city, in reply to Gov. Floyd, of Virginia, and that it could be proved by a gentle man who had formerly been a Democratic repre sentative in Congress, from Pennsylvania. The scene is now again shifted to the Court House in Laiicas er, and a certain Anthony McGlinn is the : witness. He states that “ a number of years ago, j oue evening,” whilst T was addressing a political meeting there assembled, he had heard me use the expression already staled “in an emphatic man ner, with in v right hand elevated above my bead.” ! He does not state the year when this expression was used, nor the name of any other person who . was present at this public meeting. It does not seem to have oceured to Mr. Cox, that if I had uttered such a sentiment as that at - tributed to me in the court In-nse at Lancaster, it would have been heard by hundreds of people— that it would immediately have become the sub ject of universal remark and universal condemna tion, and that it would have been severely and justlv commented upon in the newspapers of the dav.* Had it been true, there would have been no"occasion for him to resort to Anthony McGlinn to prove the charge, nor to a conversation alleged bv Mr. Ford to have been held w ith Mr. Peter Shindel, who although a respectable, is an aged man ; and from a delect in memory, incident to that period of life, must hare confounded what mar have been stated to him by others, with what he had heard himself. But I again repeat, no matter who has been or shall be the witness, the tale is utterly and absolutely false. Shortly after the slander was made a subject of debate by Mr. Cox, iu the Reform Convention, a number of the oldest and most respectable citizens of Lancaster, without distinction of party, signed a certificate disproving the charge, so far as it was possible for a negative to be proved, which was placed and still remains in the hands of one of mv friends. After what had been said in reply to Mr. Cox. by Mr. Porter and Mr. Reigart, who must either have heard the expression, had it been used, or heard of it immediately after, I deemed it wholly unnecessary then to publish this certifi cate. Yours, verv respectfully, J vmks Bcciiaxax. We have said, in the commencement of this ar ticle, that we would, at this time, publish nothing in refutation of this charge, but Mr. Buchanan's own letter. We have, however, procured a copy of the certificate, to which Mr. 8., refers, and give it publicity below for the first time. In doing so, we will boldly assert, that the thirty subscribers to it are gentlemen of as much moral worth and respectability us can be found among the same number of individuals in any other community in the Union, raid we venture to say, that no respect able man in Pennsylvania of any political parti, after reading Mr B.’s contradiction, endorsed bv the cool and deliberate declaration of these gen ilemeu, will reiterate the charge, believing him self in its truth. [oEKTiriCATE.] Several id' the undersigned have known Mr. Bu chanan ever since he first came to Lancaster, to study law with the late Janies Hopkins, and the "thers for many years past. We are all convinced that if, at a public meeting at the court-house, or any where else in this city, to had ever used such an expression, or any thing like it, as that which has been attributed to him by Mr. Cox, iu the Con vention, to wit: “ that he had thauked his God he had not a drop of Democratic blood iu his veins, and if he had he would let it out,” some of us would have heard it, and nil of us would have heard of it, and it must have become a subject of ■ general conversation throughout Lancaster. To 1 the best of our knowledge, it never was mentioned by any person until the year 182 S, immediately be fore Mr. Buchanan’s last election to Congress on | the Democratic Jackson ticket. At this election im mediately preceded General Jackson’s first election to the Presidency, .in November, 182 s, 1 and as Mr Buchanan had been for several vears previously ! his ardent and active supporter,’ he was then op- > posed with much zeal and bitterness Ever since we first heard this stoiv, referring back as it did to ISIS, we have always believed” and still believe, that it was got up Without anv ' foundation in fact, for the purpose of operating against Mr. Buchanan’s election to Congress in 13_". Indeed, we had never supposed that anv person acquainted with his character could be lieve, that at any period of life, he would, have i ,na \ Je SUf> h a declaration as now seems to be seri ously imputed to him.

Gambkkll, an experi enced merchant of New York, dated June 13th. It j contain* practical remarks. After alluding to the receipts of letters from his friends, inquiring in regard to the spring crop, how prices may rule, Ac., the Circular stales : “Being directly in the trade for the last ten years, receiving and selling it all the time, and bv cotiipariug prices for the last thirty years, I find, invariably, that tlie wheat which arrives early, or , during the whole of the month of July, sells at much higher rates than after it comes freely to market, as the first new Hour commands such ex treme high prices. “The time of harvest is generally a very busy time with planters, and but verv little is sent to market until they get through with their corn crop. And it so happens that the great bulk of our southern wheat generally arrives herein Au | gust, which is our warmest weather, i “Last season I received a eonsiderable’quantity of wheat. In fact, the greater hulk of it came on as usual, in August. The weather was uncom monly hot, and probably over two-thirds of it out of order, warm, hot, damp, musty, or unsound ; and having instructions to sell it on arrival, was compelled to force it off for less than value. “Wheat that 1 sold at $1.60af1.70 per bushel, had it arrived here live or six weeks sooner, would have brought <J2.30a52.40 per bushel, or had it been kept back until the hist of September, Octo ber, or November, it would have brought $1.90a \ $£.00a52.12 per bushel, as to quality. “it is true, the prices, last"seasou, ruled verv ir rcgulat up and down, and higher than it may for a long time to come. We usually have our regu lar breakdown in wheat out of order in August. We look for it, and our buyers profit by it; and as such is the case, we recommend our friends and correspondents, if they can send forward part or all of their wheat crop early, or tiny lime in July, provided they ean get it in prime dry shipping or der, having till the chaff, dust and filth well fan ncu out of it, to do so; and if not, to keep it back until September, October or November. Wheat, it sound, dry, and well cured, the chaff, dust and | filth well fanned from it, will not heat, or get out j of order. “Several of our planters have long since been ; putting their grain in better shipping order. We hope others will follow. Any additional outlay to j put it iu prime, clean, drv shipping order, ivill i more than pay for the expense.” Congressional. Washington-, June 10. Senate. Mr. Brown submitted a resolution, which was adopted, call ing ou the President to communicate a copy of the instructions given to Mr. Buchanan, < ti the free ships making free goods, and also Mr. Buchanan’s letter to Earl Clarendon on the same subject. Mr. Clayton rose to make propositions as he sta ted, in the sincerity of an honest heart, not as a partisan of any candidate for the Presidency, but for harmony, justice and peace in Kansas. He objected both to Douglas and Seward’s bills for t!ii> admission of Kansas, on various grounds; the principal one being the lack of a requisite popula tion. He introduced a bill to provide for a new census of Kansas, with apportionment of repre sentation according to the population, and also the repeal of certain obnoxious acts in the territo- | rial legislature. The bill was ordered to be print- ; ed. Mr. Adams made a speech in favor of the uatu- , ralizution laws. A resolution was presented fn in the Legislature of Rhode Island, relative to the assault of Mr. Brooks on Mr. Stunner. A long discussion took place in the executive session, and the Senate adjourned until Thursday next. A Si-re Remedy for a Fki.on. It is said by i somebody who pretends to know all about it, that j the following is a sure remedy for a felon : Take j a pint of common soft soap and stir il in air-slack- j ed lime til! it is of the consistency of glazier’s putty. Make a leather thimble, fill it with this j composition, and insert the finger therein. Change j the composition once in twenty minutes, and a i cure is certain. We happen to know that the above is a sure I remedy, and recommend it to any who may be j troubled with that disagreeable ailment. Buffalo Advertiser. New York, June 17. — Cotton is heavy, and the sales to-day comprise only 1000 bales, the tenor of the Arago’s advices having disappointed opera tors. Flour is buoyant at tsl.SO for Ohio, per bid. Wheat is firm at £l,7'.' per bushel for White. Corn is firm at 58 cents per bushel. Rice is dull at $4.37 L.' per 100 pounds. Freights are firmer. Little Kindnesses. “ Tis sweet to do somejhinS for those that we love. Though the favor be ever so small." Brothers, sisters, did you ever try the effect which little acts of kindness produce upon that chatined circle we call home? We love to receive little favors ourselves ; and how pleasant the re ception of them makes the circle! To draw up the arm chair and get the slippers for father, to watch if anv little service cau be rendered to mother, to help brother or assist sister, hew pleasant it makes home! A little boy has a hard lesson given him at school, and liis teacher asks him if he thinks he can get it ; for a moment the little fellow hangs down his head, but the next he looks brightly up. “ l can get my sister to help me,” he says. That is right, sister, help little brother, and you are binding a tie round his heart that may save him in many an hour of dark temptation. “I don’t know how to do this sum, but brother will show me,” says another little one. “Sister, I’ve dropped a stitch in my knittiug; I tried to pick it up, but it has run down, and 1 can’t 1 fix it.” ! The little girl is flushed, and she watches her ittiiv t.-s UUMJCU, UIIU Mlt* W UllUCn UCi : sister with a nervous anxietv, while she replaces ! the “naughty stitch.” “0, I am so glad,” she says, as she receives it ; again from the hands of her sister, all nicely ur- j ranged ; “you arc a good girl, Mary.” “Bring it to me sooner next time, and then it j won't get so bad,” says the gentle voice of Marv, as the little one bounds awav with a light heart to finish her task. If Mary had not helped her she would have lost I her walk in the garden. Surely, it is better to do as Mary did, than to say, “0, go away and don't trouble me or to scold the little one all the time i you are performing the trifling favor. Little acts of kindness, gentle words, loving i smiles they strew the path of life with flowers ; ! they make* the sun shine brighter, nnd the green earth greener; and he who bade us “love one another,” looks with favor upon the gentle and kind-hearted, and he pronounced the meek bless i ed. Brothers, sisters, love one another. If one of fend, forgive and love him still: and whatever may be the faults of others, we must remember that, in the sight of God, we have others as great and perhaps greater than theirs. Be kind to the little ones; they will often he fretful and wavward. Be patient with them, nnd amuse them. How often a whole family of little ones are restored to good humor by an elder mem ber proposing some hew plav, and perhaps joining in it, gatheiingjthqm around her while relates she some pleasant storv! And brothers, do not think because you are stronger, it is unmanly to be gentle to your little brothers and sisters.' True nobleness of heart, and true manliness of conduct, are never coupled with pride and arrogance. Nobility and gentleness go hand in hand; and wlieu l see a voung gentleman kind and respect- ful to hi* mother, and gentle and forbearing to bis brothers and sisters, 1 think he has a noble heart. Ah ! many a mother's atui manv a sister’s heart has been wrung bv the cold neglect and stiff uu kindness of those ivhom God ha - made their natu ral protectors. Brothers, sisters, never be unkind to one another, never be ashamed to help one another, never be ashamed to help any one, and vou will find that though it is pleasant to receive favors, yet it is more blessed to give than to receive.

The anti-Fillmore Know Nothing Convention, in session in New York, rep resenting almost the entire Know Nothing strength ! of the North, and comprising delegates from eigh- : teen Slates and Territories, has determined to make no nominations for the Presidency', but to j abide the action of the Freesoil Convention, which ! meets tn-dav, 17tli> in Philadelphia. The coalition between northern Know Nothings i and Abolitionists is now complete -no pretence of j nationality is left, and yet southern men hesitate how to act. A sectional question is forced upon ns in spite of ourselves, livery opposition faction of the North is signing the proclamation of Freesoilism, and \ fatuity itself can see no hope for the rights of the .South outside el the nationality of Democracy vet there are politicians and editors in the South j who counsel the people to throw their votes upon | the hopeless chance of Fillmore. This will be but | play ing, upon a popular stage, the corrupting j game of the Mat y land and Delaware Know-Nothing j Representatives in Congress, during the Contest : for the Speakership of the present lower House. When the final struggle came they deserted their ! friends folded their arms, and saw them sacrificed j before their eyes, when an outstretched arm would j have rescued them. In the one case the question ! was a matter of limited importance, while in the j other it may be a question of political existence. The magnitude of the stake may lend interest to j the game, but it increases to a fearful degree the re , spousihility of the players. Those who stand back i now either in stolid indifference or active opposi- ] tion, are trifling with ihe fate of the nation. South Side Detn.MT.it, June 17. I ( X )M V!

The Ernp,re State of the Smith still ahead in her rjNIIIS article wis compare favora !_ B. lily with any of like character in the known world. I find that by putting it in the form of a Soap it gives it a decided advun ;||H!|i tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment. >*4»**L, or Ointment that can be made for the cure of dis eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents' its vir tues from being impaired by age or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh AVounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles, Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Eyes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac., extract scurf and daudrulf front the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. L is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure ilie Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dentrifice to the teeth. For shaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening the heard, and curing such sores as may be on the face. In the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm indeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is onlv requisite to prove its efficacy as above stated, anil wishing to avoid everything like hunibuggery, I leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, no doubting they will then declare this to be the«« plus ultra of the age in the healing art.
