Jo ths Editor of tte G-nstitutionalist :
Dear Sir -, /n my last, after presenting to your
readers certain facts in relation to Mr. Buchanan,
going to show the uniform sympathy and steadfast
support the South has received at his hands, when
ever assailed by the Freesoilers and Abolitionists
of the North—and after showing that his abandon
t Os the Ml Os,. >u> i Compromise and support of
the principle* of tin Kansas-Nebraska art, took
place some time before the passage of the Compro
mise measures in 1850—which he advocated, aixt
by his influence assisted In pausin'/. And, after al
luding to the ingratitude of certain presses and
politicians of the South, in their now trying to op
pose him, and offering to sensible and patriotic
southern men Mr. Fillmore, in preference to Mr.
Been an an, I most respectfully asked, and 1 again
ask, idiot claims has Mr. Fillmore upon the people
of tii South it, preference to Mr. Buchanan
Was not Mr. Fillmore against the South when she
was satisfied with the Missouri Compromise and
\..i- voting for it, while the oilier, Mr. Bcchan
. anJwhs for the South, and voting with, her upon
this question ? Was not Mr. Fillmore against the
South, and m favor of reporting upon and treating
with all respect Abolition petitions, while Mr. Bc
uaNav was with the South, and for laying the mo
lion for their reception on tin table* Was not Mr.
Fillmore "op/wsed to ihe annexation of Texas to
the Union, voder any circumstances, as long as
ire held therein ,” while Mr. Buchanan uas
th the South and for it* Has not Mr. Fillmore
expressed himself within the last eighteen years,
“in tacor of Congress exercising all the constitu
tional power it possesses to abolish the internal
slave trade between the States ; and ‘in furor
of immediate legislation for the abolition of slavery
m the District of Columbia;’ ” while, on the other
hand, Mr. Buchanan has uniformly opposed, and
uncompromisingly opposed, all such thinsrs. lias
Mr. Fillmore ever said anything in defence of the
South or its institutions S' If so' where and what
r. it? It is said that when he was in the South
two or three years ago, and the southern people
. -re paving him honors, and feasting him &c.
t ; a lw “whispei ed” to Mr. Kennedy or Mr. some
-1.1 !v else, that slavery was not quite as bad as he
upp -ed it was in liis early days, Ac., Ac. But
-inre Uis return have we heard even the first
"whisper” from him to his Freesoil and Abolition
friends, or any one else, in vindication or even pal
■ don of slavery at the South ? lias he ever made
tlie first effort whatever, since his return, to unde
leive the North as to the exaggerated and false
latemrnts as to slavery at the South'? Whilst
even in ihe midst of us, did he even dare to con
ti’ss that in past days he had been deceived as to
iis v No, but lie has been as “dumb as an oyster."
Hut liis friends say he "signed the Compromise
measures!’’ Ah' is that all? Mr. Buchanan i»
even ahead if him there, for Mr. Buchanan was
i: fit rat of them, INCLUDING THE FUGITIVE SLAVE
law, both before as well as after they were
passed. But when it is known that Mr. Fillmore
is »ne of those politicians that detests the use of the
veto p urn-, and that it was one of the "hobbys”
whereby he got into office, is lie entitled to any very
great credit for “signing the Compromise mc-ii- I
sures?” especially when he “disapproved,” “did not
like" and hesitated, and would not sign (with all of ;
his detestation of the veto power) the fugitive
slave law, vnti’ his Attorney General Crittenden
gave him a ,-ertfb-tf, that “it was constitutional.”
But, “li signed the Compromise measures!” Yes
he did. biit is there anv evidence that he construes
iliem as the South, as Mr. Douglas, Mr. Btcu
inan, Mr. Pierce and others construe them ? ff
Mr. Kennedy, his right hand man, and travelling
companion, is to b • believed, Mr. Fillmore did '
not and o - > not construe the Compromise mea- i
Mires, as the > mth and these gentlemen and the
Democratic party d->. But, considering his very i
great repugnance to the use of the veto power, !
.chat els-, could he have done, as President, bur j
sign the Compromise measures—especially, when I ,
Mr. Crittenden satisfied him that the fugitive ' '
slave law was constitutional : \\ ould he not have ;
signed these T rritorial bills, had they contained U
the Wiltnof Proviso m them, for lie considered '
that constitutional'? Did he seer veto any bill !
during the vh de time of his administration/ I do !
not recollect one. But, again ; Mr. Kennedy savs i
Mr. Fillmore “regrets" the repeal of the Missouri :
Compromise, and Mr. Fillmoke accepts the nomi- j .
nation of a party and its platform, that clearly, j :
liistinctly and unequivocally denounces its repeal *
as ‘Vo . and “un>cisf," Ac. And this plat-I
tnrm calls upon ail, who concur with it in semi- j
inent, m unite with them in the election of their |
candidate. Mr. Fillmore, in liis letter of accept- i
unce, says nothing now of the “finality of the !
Compromise measures," or “finality of slavery i
agitation,’ butreferstothecour.se pursued, when i
President—and the most prominent of which, |
was the noor-H -. of the veto power. And with ;
Mr. Fillmore's opposifiv, to, and “regret" at the j
e-peal of the Missouri Compromise, and his w-.1l- j
known opposition to the use of the veto pow- :
er, and his acceptance of the platform of his j
party—his being a northern man, where all of j
liis party North are for its restoration, Jse.—does *
any man doubt for a moment liis signing a bill for j
ns restui-at, - a e Indeed, would he not be faithless j
to his or, - • p.. : and fa,i',b ss to the party that mini- !
mated au.i upported him, were he to refuse to sign .
a bill to •• do awn;, with tins “reckless'' and “an
no. Are there mam southern men and
Georgians, who are thus willing, in supporting Mr.
Fillmore, to take the chances that are against i s,

dav will show but tew of such men.
But again—admitting (as Mr. Fillmore does)
the full power of Congress to abolish slavery in
the territories and the District of Columbia, and
of abolishing the right of persons of one State 1
•*e!!iug slaves to a person of another State : and as I
he has been once in favor of these things, too, and I
lias never “retracted” those expressions ; and be- j
mg oil • of those politicians that denounces the 1
veto power as the “ one man power," and bitterly j
opposed to it, too ; and in ihe absence of anv i
pledge or intimation to ihe contrary, in his letter i

Mr. lillmore would not “let the voice of the peo- !

But enough. Tlien, admitting that Jfr. Fillmore
maybe a “good man,” land T grant that I believe
he is,) and that iie is a “safe man,” (which, from
his principles, party associations, old prejudices,
Ac., I cannot think he is,)—l repeat, admitting
that, by himself, he might be both “good” and
: “safe,” still, as a Know Nothing or American, be
longing, as it seems he does, to a Council, (else he
would not have been nominated,) he is bound by
oath, Ac., to the Constitution and regulations of
the “Order”—and that “Order” gives to the
Grand Council of the United States Supreme pow
er. It gives to “the Grand Council of the hated
States” the “power to decide all matters appertain
ing to National politics.” So, admitting that he
could he elected, the people of the United States,
instead of electing Mr. Fillmore President, makes
he Grand Council of the United States, of the
Know Nothing or American Order, (and who are
they?) and their successors in office, “the Presi
dent ’of tiio L ailed States. Who they are, or who
they may h, , I really do not know, but they gave
the South, in February, a little fore-taste (by
throwing overboard the’l2th section of the plat
form of 1855, and driving southern delegates from
their hall,) of what they icould and will do, when
ever they have the power. And as the North has
about fifty-six majority in that Council, all of
whom being against us oil the Kansas and slavery
question, I should like to know what chance the
South would have in such a Council, with a Presi
dent of their own. Southern delegates that had
not become Arnolds, 1 guess, would have to leave
taster than southern delegates left in. February
last.
But, Mr. Editor, I have no fears for the South
in this election. She, or a large majority of her
people, “see their way clear,” “and all will be
well” as to the Electoral vote -of all the southern
States going for Buch an an and Breckinridge— and
as for our noble and gallant State, Georgia,
you may look out for not less than twenty
thousand, and perhaps thirty thousand, or
more, majority, for Buchanan and Breckin
ridge—if the friends of Mr. Fillmore, should per
sist in holding him up as a candidate in Georgia.
But I hope the Know Nothing or “ American ”
party shortly to assemble at Macon, will think, and
act better than that, and offer no opposition at all
to Mr. Buchanan— orjratherjthat, as southern men
and patriots, they will give up their old prejudices,
and selfish purposes, and rally with us to the ban
ner, emblazoned on it in substance, if not in an
the same words, “a Constitutional Union—and the
rights of ths South under the Constitution" —it is
needless for tne to say, for Buchanan and Breck
inridge. With such a course, on their part, how
hopeful, could we all be, for the preservation
of our beloved country, and the preservation of
civil liberty, at least in the United .States. How
glorious it would be thus to see the South, the
whole South, and Georgians especially, marching
thus together as a “band of brothers” and as
** one people,” in this day and hour of trial, for the
Constitution and the Union !
But, Mr. Editor, I will not say more at present.
If 1 have already said more than there is any
necessity for saving at the present time—if I have
already trespassed too long upon your columns,
and perhaps worn out the patience of yourself, and
your readers, I hope you will excuse my “infirmi
ty,” and attribute it all to my earnest desire, for a
Union of the South for the sake of the South!
There is so much cause for it at this time, and
upon a calm survey of the past, and present posi
tions of Messrs. Buchanan and Fillmore, the op
portunity is so fair, for men of principles, and pa
triots, to unite upon Mr. Buchanan, instead of
die’ding upon one, who inis not been so sound, in
the past, and whose present position is not so
sound even now—that 1 could not resist the incli
nation to take up my pen again. But I will stop,
for the present. “ Old Line Whig.”
Note.—That I may not be charged with doing
Mr. Fillmore injustice, I here give his own lan
guage.
Buffalo, October 17, 1838.
Sir: Your communication of the 15th inst., as
chairman of a committee appointed by the anti
slavery Society of die county of Erie, has just
come to hand. )on solicit my answers to the fol
lowing interrogatories:
Ist. Do you believe that petitions to Congress on
the subject oi slavery and the the slave trade ought
to be received, read and respectfully considered,
by the representatives of the people ?
2nd. Are you opposed to the annexation of Texas
to the Union, under any circumstances, so long as
slaves are held therein?
•3rd. Are you in favor of Congress exercising all
the constitutional power it possesses to abolish the
internal slave trade between States?
4th. Are you in favor of immediate legislation
for the Abolition of slavery in the District of Co
lumbia ?
I am much engaged, and have no time to enter
into argument, or to explain at length my reasons
for iny opinion. 1 shall therefore content myself,
for the present, by answering ALL your interroga
tories in the AFFIRMATIVE, and leave for some
future occasion a more extended discussion on the
subject. * * * * * *
Millard Fillmore.
fiou. James Buchanan.
High taxation and extravagance are but parts of
the same policy. Accordingly, the tariff and in
ternal improvements have gone hand in hand. The
politicians in favor of the one, have voted for the
other- -because, without a high tariff, there would
be no surplus; and without surplus, there would
be no expenditure for internal improvements. But
to the South, the question of the tariff is far more
important than that of internal improvements.
The tariff robs her of the fruits of her industry,
and thus weakens the basis of her institutions. Wo
do not agree with those who speak of the tariff as
a thing already settled, and therefore not to be dis
cussed in the coming contest, ft is secondary only
to the question of slavery itself.
We do not claim for Mr. Buchanan, that he is a
Free Trade man of the strictest sect; we admit
that he has given votes upon this question which
we cannot approve. But, looking at his career, as
a whole, we cau establish two points—first, that lit
is the friend of economy in the Government; and
is not the advocate of high tariff*’s for the sake of
protection, li was not until 1882 that the South
became fully alive to the importance of this great
question. Up to that time, the South was greatly
divided, and men, who afterwards became pronti
uent as the champions of Free Trade, were pointed
to their votes for the tariff of ’lO, ’24, and ’23. Mr.
Buchanan voted for the tariff of 1824 and IS2S. In
1b33 the Compromise was passed,and Mr. Buchan
an was in Russia. When he appeared in the .Sen
ate in 1 S3l, there was no agitation of the ques
tion, forthe country was in repose after a longand
intense excitement.
The first time that the question arose was in
1337, upon a bill to reduce the duties. The Com
promise of 1832 was in full force, and this hill
proposed to reduce the tariff upon articles no*
covered by the Compromise. While the hill was
pending in the Senate, the Legislature of Penn
sylvania passed resolutions explicitly instructing
her Senators in Congress to vote against it. Be
fore casting his vote, under these instructions,
Mr. Buchanan said :
“That had it not been for these instructions, he
should have voted to take off the duties entirely,
so far as not to interfere with protection, and
would not violate the Compromise act,” for “ he
concurred with the Senator from South Carolina,
i Mr. Calhoun) in his desire that the Compromise
should stand undisturbed." f * “It
was the law of the land; it was the price which
we had paid for our domestic tranquility; it was
tlie act which restored harmony to the Union.
Under these circumstances, he could not consider
it an act of mere ordinary legislation.”
Now, the Compromise of 1833 was regarded by
tlie State of South Carolina, and the whole South,
j as a great triumph over the doctrine of protection.
| * T provided that tlie tariff should undergo periodi
j cal reductions until 1842, when it was then to be
i placed upon a revenue basis. We here find Mr.
j Buchanan sustaining in good faitli that Compro
, mise, and even expressing his willingness to re
duce still further tlie duties, provided it did not
rntcTt. re \nth the protectiou granted under it.
I mms course on that occasion, noth
mg of which the South could complain. So far
, as th«i Compromise was concerned, he stood side
, by side with Mr. Calhoun.

j It was the prevailing opinion among the dele
gates to the Black Republican Convention m Phil
! adelphia, that Mr. Fillmore would decline in favor
jot their nominee. While there we heard this
! opinion frequently expressed, both before and after
i the nomination of Col. Fremont
The extract from Mr. Fillmore’s letter, publish
!cd tlie Nevr York Fcpress, will set them right
on that subject, in bis letter, Mr. Fillmore savs •
“ In reference to the efforts which have been
I 10 drive me from my course, they wholly
! mistake mv character. It is true I did not desire
the nomination; but my name has been placed be
fore the public by my friends, and there it will re
main, regardless of ail consequences, unless they
shall desire its withdrawal.”
Leading men in Washington city, Democrats
Whigs and Americans, entertained no doubt of
the election of Mr. Buchanan, whether the opposi
tion run two Presidential tickets or not. A prom
inent . American member of the House
expressed tlie opinion in our hearing, that there
would be no fight, and that Mr. Buchanan would
walk over tlie ground to the White House. To
which Mr. Stephens, of Georgia, replied: “You
are very much mistaken. There will be a fight,
j a ’“'\ a fierce one. But with Mr. Buchanan, and the
, national, constitutional platform of the Cincinnati

THIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS —FIRST SESSION.
Washington, June 25.—Senate.— Mr. Wilson
presented the petition of the officers of the Massa
chusetts Emigrant Aid .Society, setting forth ihe
objects of that organization, and stating that they
have been much misrepresented by the majority
report of the committee on territories. They say
j that this society was not the cause of the trouble's
in Kansas, having never infringed any law nor in
terfered with the peaceable execution of the law.
They never invested one dollar in the purchase of
any munitions of war; never sent out persons to
control the elections in Kansas, nor hired any man,
except as a business agent, to go there. They
never paid the passage of a single emigrant, nor
is it within the knowledge of tlie company that
any person lias gone out under their auspices with
any other view than settling and staying in the
Territory.
They also represent that their property has been
destroyed by recent outbreaks, and pray that the
offenders may be brought to justice, and that com-
I pensation may be made for the losses and injuries
: they have sustained. The petition was referred to
j the committee on claims.
I Mr. Johnson took exception to some of the com
i ments of Mr. Seward yesterday, on the conduct of
Mr. Rust in assaulting Horace Greeley some time
■ a S°-
Mr. Seward indicated the correctness of what he
! had said according to the facts, so far as they
were within Ins knowledge and recollection. He
did not, however, at the time remember the pre
i cise ground on which the assault was made.
| The House bill to change the time of holding
, the United States Courts in Tennessee was passed.
Mr. Foster spoke on Kansas matters. He allu
! ded to the passage of the Nebraska bill about the
hour of miduight on the 25th of May, 1854. The
darkness which then enveloped the earth, yielded
to the light of the coming day, but the darkness
and gloom which have been caused by that bill
did not pass away, but. have been increasing until
they now envelope the whole land with a broad
black shadow. He proceeded to give a history of
the uvents that succeeded the passage of that bill;
and spoke with earnestness in defence of the Emi
grant Aid Societies. He also vindicated Professor
Silliman, and Rev. Messrs. Beecher and Dutton.
The meeting at New Haven, in Mr. Dutton’s church,
was to bid farewell to their friends who were
about to leave for Kansas, and tlie arms furnished
were merely for self-defence ; and it was a signifi
cant fact that no one of that party who were then
furnished with “ Sharpe’s rifles,’’ had ever been
engaged in any of the disturbances m that Terri
tory. Professor Silliman has been connected with
Yale College for fifty years, and during that time
no less than four thousand young men have been
educated there —no one of whom ever received
other than good influences from him. Mr. Beech
er, the pastor of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, was
well known to the ’country. He might have his
failings and liis eccentricities, but he and his con- j
gregation were ever to be found in the foremost !
rank in efforts to ameliorate the condition of man- j
kind. If he had no stone cast at him except by !
those who had done more tiian he has for the good I
of his race, he would be much more likely to at- I
tain the age of Methuselah than to suffer the mar- i
tvrdom of St. Stephen.
Mr. Foster went on to discuss the question of I
slavery in the States and slavery in the Territories. |
Over slavery in the States the general government, I
had no power; and where there was no power 1
there was no responsibility and should be no inter
meddling. But tlie existence of slavery in the
Territories was an entirely different matter. He j
then attempted to discover what was tlie great j
principle of the Kansas and Nebraska bill. Being j
unsuccessful in his search," he proceeded to lay i
down what lie conceived to be the true doctrine, !
which was, that Congress had exclusive power I
over tlie matter, and if slavery was right, he could !
not see how the African .slave trade could be
wrong. But he would recommend that wherever
slavery existed in the Territories it should be abol- i
lshed, and wherever it did not exist it should be
forbidden.
Mr. Benjamin expressed Ids gratification at tlie j
time and temper of the speech of Mr. Foster, be- j
ing so different from what he had been accustomed
to hear from tiiose entertaining such opinions on
the subject of slavery. The question had been
discussed in a manner eminently becoming a .Sen
ator, representing one of the sovereign States of ;
this confederacy.
On motion of Mr. W Her, tlie Kansas bill and :
all tiio proposed amendments were re-committed i
to the committee on territories.
Mr. Weller gave-notice that he should more to ;
take up the wagon-road bill to California, to-mor- '
row.
After an executive sesu-ni, ‘lie Senate adjourn,
ed.
House. —The House pas.-cd the bill authorizing
the President to cause to be delivered, at the ex
pense of tlie United States, to the Territories of |
Utah and New Mexico, such arms as they are enti- -
tied to under the existing laws.
The bill establishing two land districts in Kan- !
sas was tabled by twenty-six (liajoritv.
The House proceeded to the consideration of tlie
bill reported Irom tlie committee on territories
for the admission of Kansas as a State into tlie ’
Union, with the Topeka Constitution.
Mr. Grow said that on the lr.tli of May, l'st,
an act was passed organizing Kansas as a’ territo
ry. Tlie census of February, i <>o, allowed t wen
ty-five hundred and five voters, and at the elec- !
tiou which chose the legislature which enacted j
the code of laws of Kansas, sixty-three hundred
and thirty-one voters. Those laws the people be
lieved were oppressive and wrong; and emana
ting from usurpation of legislative power, they arc 1
not bound by considerations of justice and right to
submit to them. Senator Clayton recently declared
those acts to be unexampled, palpably unjust and :
oppressive, and some of them unconstitutional,
besides being insulting to honorable men who might I
differ from him on political questions. The people \
of tlie territory believing that “resistance to ty- [
ranny is obedience to God,” called a convention I
in a constitutional and legal way, and adopted a
State Constitution at Topeka. Mr. Grow gave a j
history of the attendant proceedings and spoke of !
the difficulties in Kansas and the fruitless efforts
of the Federal authorities to suppress them.
Mr Stephens gave notice of liis intention to sub- |
mit a substitute for the bill to guard against all
tlie evils of which Mr. Grow complained)
Mr. Smith, of Tenu., said that reason and not i
passion ought foreign. We have passed through I
many scenes of disturbance since tlie adoption of j
the Constitution, but, at last, patriots have been I
willing to come to a reasonable conclusion on the j
uuestion which divided all sections of tlie country. '
The gentleman irom Pennsylvania had denounced
the Executive for a failure to enforce the laws, or I
partiality in their execution; but some men in the !
South utter similar complaints. This furnished
the highest evidence that the President had nobly
done his duty to the entire country, but this was j
not the time for recrimination, but, if possible, at l
once to quiet the prevailing excitement, lie i
thought that tiio bill recently introduced in tlie j
Senate by Mr. Toombs equitable and just, and i
based on principle, so far as slavery is concerned, j
on which all men who love the Union can unite, j
Mr. Smith believed that both sections have act- j
ed imprudently regarding the Kansas difficulties, I
which are fast bringing into disrepute the fair fame I
of our Republic. The President lias done all m !
liis power to prevent insurrection and preserve tlie )
public peace, and he was gratified to know that
the Executive’s efforts were likely to succeed, j
But Congress has done nothing, notwithstanding ■
the recommendation of the President for tlie adop
tion of additional measures to secure tranquility.
Mr. Grow moved that the bill be recommitted to
the committee on territories.
Mr. Duun said he understood Mr. Grow’s design
was to prevent the bill from being sent to the com
mittee of the whole on the state of the Union.
Mr. Grow replied in the affirmative.
Mr. Dunn hoped that a bill involving so many
important principles would be sent to the commit- j
tee of the whole on the state of the Union, with a i
view to tlie widest discussion. Experience had !
shown that to be the best place for that purpose, j
Amendments may there be offered and fully ueba- j
ted. If what appeared in the newspapers were
true, Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Kan
sas, and all gentlemen connected with the State i
government of Kansas, are under indictment for |
treason, which offence is not bailable. Suppose
Kansas were admitted into the Union, what pro
vision did the gentleman from Pennsylvania make j
for that state of affairs? Let the tribunals of tlie !
country take their quiet course.
Talk of a dissolution of tlie Union ! It would be j
mockery in comparison with the revolution and !
bloodshed which would ensue under this condition !
of things. He could go far to establish freedom in
that Territory, but would oppose all measures to
establish it by a subversion of our country. He was
not to be moved by outside pressure or by inside j

other important hills go, or lie there considered.
Mr. Grow said that the gentleman from Pennsyl- j
'aiiia knew as well as any man that to send the ;
bill to the committee of the whole on tlie state of !
the Union was to kill it effectually, and therefore
it could not lie effectually amended. Any man
who should vote to send it there might as well I
vote against the bill directly.
1 lie question was, whether the House was ready !
to relieve the people of Kansas from their present
oppression by admitting them as a State. What
right wouid thus be trampled down? As to tlie!
Governor and Lieutenant-Governor being indicted I
for treason the admission of Kansas into the
Union would perhaps furnish a remedy; but if
not provision could be made to meet the case.
.h . Dunn ' Jr. Grow withdrawing liis motion)
moved the bill be referred to the committee of tlie '
whole on the [state of tlie Union, pending which !
motion tiie House went into committee on Torn to
nal bills ; and subsequently passed that for the
construction of a railroad into the Territory of
Minnesota. Tlie House then adjourned.

aUESTIONS THAT DYSPEPTICS
ASK.
66 MI7HAT shall 1 Eat?”
w w “How much in quantity or weight
ought 1 to eat at a meal ?”
“Shall I commence a rigid course of Dieting?’'
“ Shall I leave of Eating Meat ?”
“Must I stop Drinking Coffee?”
Are questions being propounded to me daily by
letter, from invalids using or about to use “ BLISS’
DY SPEPTIC REMEDY'.” For the benefit of all
whom it may concern, I will answer those ques
tions. To the first question, I answer—Eat any
thing that is good, wholesome, substantial, and
nourishing. To the second question, I answer—
Eat as much as you are accustomed to eat, or what
ever would be considered a sufficiency by the gen
erality of healthy people. To the third question,
I answer- —No, for if you do you never will get well.
No dyspeptic, or any other person laboring under
chronic disease, ever got rid of his disease, or ever
will, by starving himself. To question four, I ans
wer —No; for meat is a most important article of
diet to the invalid dyspeptic. To question five, 1
answer—No; if you are accustomed to drinking it;
the question as to whether tea and coffee are inju
rious is all moonshine.
Such advice us the above to a dyspeptic and to
persons laboring under chronic diseases generally,
will no doubt be read and regarded by a great
many with much surprise; and I am greatly mis
taken if the above is not pointed at by many saga
cious and wise beads as proofs either that 1 know
nothing of the diseases which I pretend to treat,
that it is some new phase in the humbug line. But,
hold on a bit, all you that think so—throw the old
fogy aside for a moment and let us see about this
matter. YVe won’t stop to inquire how you came
by your dyspepsia, but we will inquire—wliy is it
that you have not got well of it long ago ? why is
it that it sticks to you, tormenting you so that you
are of no manner of account ? Simply because the
powers of the system are unable to throw off the
disease—because the system has, from some rea
son, become too much enfeebled—too much reduced
in vital force—too much in a weakened state; or
that the extent, severity or stronghold that the dis
ease has got is too great for the vis mdacatrlr na
tures —the powers of the system to remove. This
is Ihe reason, and the only reason, that you are not
well. Well, how are you to be cured ? " By pursu
ing such a course of treatment as shall help out the
vis nifhmttri.e naturae, and the powers of the sys
tem—by instituting a treatment that will bind up,
strengthen, give tone and vigor, and lend a help
ing hand to the entire general system, by which
she may be enabled to throw off this disease, as for
instance, regular out of door exercise, cold bath
ing, travelling, change of scone, Ac., and the tak
ing of medicinal agents. YVhy is medicine taken?
Simply to assist nature to throw off disease, and
nothing else. Medicine has not one particle of in
fluence on disease—not one particle. Medicine
don’t cure disease, it only assists nature to throw
ii off Now comes the question : while we are do
ing everything in our power to bind up and
| strengthen the general powers of the system, that
j she may be enabled to throw off this disease, shall
we at the same time deny her her natural stimu
lus -her natural strengthener? shall we withhold
that by which she is nourished and supported, viz:
food, good, wholesome ami substantial food? Bv
no means ; for if we do, we are bringing about the
very same stale of svstem that we are trying to get
rid of; by withholding food we reduce and weak
en the system. The taking of good and substan- j
tial food is as essential as any portion of the treat
ment that we institute, in fact, very much more so, |
for the food is the natural strengtlieuer of the pow- \
ers of the system, and from it good, rich and health v |
blood is made.
All litis, we grant, sayß my sagacious friend, but, |
continues he, what’s the use of a person eating it :
his stomach is in an unfit state to receive and di- !
gest that food and prepare it for the system ; and j
besides, says he, there are hundreds and thousands :
that cannot take much food upon the stomach in j
consequence of the great distress if causes. Now !
this is a very important question, and a very true !
remark. There would he but little use in taking !
this good, wholesome and substantial food unless !
the stomach could receive ami digest it, and, too,
without pain and distress; and that the stomach !
may receive and digest the food, and without pain, I
recourse must be had to medicinal agents. Isv j
these, if a judicious choice is made among the re- I 1
medial agents, the stomach may be enabled to per- ! -
form its functions—may be enabled to receive and 1 '
digest the food, and, too, without pain or distress. !
Now comes the question - what remedial agent j i
shall we use? Shall we use calomel ? No; because i
in its action it stimulates the mucus membrane ot | i
the stomach and bowels, which are already in an j ;
over-excited and inflamed state. Shall we use iron ! i
or any of its kindred preparations? No; for the ! <
same reason. They would not only stimulate Ihe !
already over-excited mucus membrane of the sto- J t
macli, but render it -siill further tumble to prepare j t
those preparations for their admission into the t
system, so if their presence in the stomach did no
harm, they could not possible do any good, from ;
the fact of their not being taken into the circula-
tion.
Shall we use any of the many “specifies” that
are now-a-days placed before the people as “sov
ereign remedies ?” No; for nine-tenths of them
arc prepared with alcohol, or some other equally
stimulating liquid, and nothing is < r can be more
injurious or hurtful to an inflamed mucus mem
brane ot the stomach, than alcohol or any ot' its
preparations.
tgYYhat remedial agent shall we use then ? This
is a question that 1 asked for years. I tried over
and over again all the remedies and prescriptions
found in the books, hut all to little or no purpose,
until, at last, aided by experiments almost without
number, I compounded a remedy which, although
very simple, yet I found always most effectual when
my directions were complied with. This prepara
tion I have used in cases of every description of
Dyspepsia, and other diseases having their origin
in disease of the stomach, for the last ten years’ll!
my private practice, and am now prescribing it
daily, by letter, to patients in every section of Hie
United States, who have placed their ease under
my especial care and treatment. Mv legitimate
business is the treatment and prescribing by letter
for chronic disease generally, and mne-tentlis of
the cases I prescribe for are either Dyspepsia or
some other disease having its origin in disease of
the stomach. | And by the by. I will here take oc- !
casion to drop the hint that some of my friends I
forget that 1 lay no claim to being a philanthropist [
or that I “grind for toll.” I am ready and willing!
and do, as expeditiously as possible, answer sili '•
their letters, and it gives me pleasure to do so, but j
when it will take from one to two, three and four
hours to answer and advise them, 1 always like to '
see the “five”—it helps out amazingly—especially !
when their case happens not to be Dyspepsia.] I j
have now placed this remedy before the public as ;
one that may be relied upon, and I do so without i
any hesitation, doubt, or distrust in its virtues or
ability to cure, providing the instructions are fol
lowed out.
In conclusion, 1 will take occasion to remark,
that there are hundreds and thousands throughout
the United States that are suffering from the dis
ease, Dyspepsia, and are taking this, that and the
other preparation, and at the same time living on
bran and water, and other such like slops, in the
hope of being relieved of their disease ; but they
are all doomed to disappointment, for it is beyond
question, that in order to become rid of that dis- !
ease, a good and wholesome diet must be made |
use of, and suitable remedies taken, at the same ;
time to enable the stomach to digest this food, and !
fit it for the circulation. Such a remedy is “BLISS’ !
DY SPEPTIC REMEDY',” which, if taken and per
severed in, and all the directions followed out, will i
not fail to restore the patient, to health; and here I
would remark, that no disappointment may be ex
perienced, that its virtues are not in all cases dis
cernible in the taking of one package, and perhaps j
in some few extreme cases, the taking of two pack
ages. A steady and persevering taking of the |
REMEDY' is recommended, and rest assured, it :
will, sooner or later, be diseoysicd that it does ;
possess virtues almost inestimable.
