SLAVERY aCESTIOjf
The Riclimotid Enquirer closes tin able and
iutcrestinpr review of Afr. lluohanan’s record
uu the slavery question with the following re
capitulation ami comments:
1. In 183*3 Mr. Jlucliannii supported a bill
to prohibit the eirculatiou of Abolition papers
through the mails. •
•J. la the same year bd proposed and voted
for the admission of Arkausas.
3. In 1830-7 he denounced and voted to
reject petitions for the abolition slavery iu the
District of Columbia.
4. In 1837 he voted for Air. Calhoun's
famous resolutions defining the rights of the
States aud the limits of federal .‘inthority, and*
ttHrmiug it to be the duty of the government
to protect aud uphold the instituti&ns of the
Smith. :
5. In 1838-9 and MO lie invariably voted
with southern Senators against the considera
tion, of anti-slavery petitions.
ik' In 1844-’5 he advocated and voted for
the annexation- of Texas.
7. In 1847 he sustained the Clayton Com
promise.
8. Iu 1850 he proposed and nrged f ho ex
tension of the Missouri Compromise to the
Pacific ocean. , ., • ;
!». But lie promptly acquiesced in the Com
promise of 1850, and employed all his influ
ence m favor of the faithful excution of Ihe
fugitive slave law.
10. In 18.»1 he reuioustatcd against an en
actment of the Pennsylvania Legislature for
obstructing the arrest aud return of fugitive
slaves. • .■ -« -v» ‘ - ■_
11. In 1854 he negotiated for the acquisi
tion of Cuba. . ;
12. In 183*3 be approves the repeal of tho
Missouri restriction, aud supports the' princi
ples of the Knuaus-Nebntskn act.
13. He never gave a vote againts tho inter
ests of slavery*- and never uttered a word
which could pa'iu the most sensitive southern
heart. > 's*. awe
The prominent facts of Air. Buchanan’s rec
ord, Touching slavery, are thus grouped into a
tingle view: so that the person of the. least
lAtcncc in research may ascertain at a glance
lew the Democratic candidate stands in respect
X> the great issuo of the canvass. In this
luccint statement, wo give not detached pass-,
ages and isolated acts; but wc bring the wl ; ..b-
history of a long Kfc to bear upon the popular
■mind witli the irresistible force <4! truth. This
rapid retrospect discloses a consistency and
mi efficiency of service to the South, which
flattery can claim for no other living man.
Mr. Buchanan is not only vindicated from ca-
luinuy ; he is not simply shown to lie exempt
from just reproach and worthy of confidence:
he is promoted to Jii» proper position, in ad
vance of any and every statesmen of the North
iit the confidence and affection of the people
of the Sooth. He demands not a mere re
cognition of his attachment to the Constitution
but unbounded applause for such service in
the interest of the South as no other man can
boast of. Against the captious criticism of a
desperate adversary, refining upon technical
distinctions and skulking amoug quibbles, the
democracy oppose this incontestable attesta
tion of their candidate’s fidelity.
Another Brooks and Stunner Af-
FAIK.
Abont 12 o’clock on Tuesday night, the
saloon of the Metropolitan Ilall was the scene
of a great deal of confusion and excitement in
consequence of an affray between Mr. John
tkanwood, of Massachusetts, and Burfqfd W.
1 icks, ii South Carolinian, brought about by
ihe manner in which Air. Stnuwood denounc
'd the attack on Senator Sumner, by Con
gressman Brooks. The gcutlcman from Alas-
f-tchujftu took occasion to say that tie- con
duct of Brooks, on thc tecaaion referred to,
"as most brutal and cowardly. Mr. Vicks.
»'ho is either a relative or personal friend of
Brooks, refuted fl.c charge made against the
latter, and, as is alleged, followed up the ar
gument by blows with a walking cane. _Ono
of the Fourteenth ward police was called in to
quell the difficulty, when Air. Vicks was ar-
r «sted and taken to the station house for the
W»t of the night. Yesterday morning the
Accused was brought before Justice Brennan,
»t the Third District Police Court: but tho
ooutplainant not appearing against him, he
’•’*» discharged from custody. In the course
^ftheday, Air. Stanwood hearing that Mr.
**cks had been discharged proceeded to tlie po-
*|« court above mentioned, an 1 made so affida*

“Urging him with assault and battery. A

Ur. 1 fllKiuie’s Claims to Southern
Support-Fugitive Slave Law.
AA e find nil we have to say on this subject
so well expressed ill the Mississippi Gazelle,
that we appropriate its article:
1 hi- was the only measure of the well known
acts ot 1850, which was claimed to be for the
heneht ot the Southern States. It was atnere
constitutional measure to which they were
entitled irrespective of any other law, but
bis partizans contend that he is entitled to
much credit for signing it.
Why he signed the Fugitive Slava Law
AVe will let hint explain for himself, and
then the reader can decide whether he is enti
tled to credit fortheact:
. " 'll quote from a speech delivered by
bmi in Louisville, Ky., on his Southern tour,
ihc Louisiillc Journal is our authority. He
said: J
. . Yhe I ugitive Slave law had sonic pro
visions in it to which I [Fillmore] had some
OBJEC 1 IOXi>. I regretted the necessity of
its being passed at all. A\ lien tho bill caineto
me from the two houses, 1 examined it in the
midst of hurry, confusion and difficulties, and
a doubt came up iu my mind whether it was
not UNCONSTITUTIONAL AS DKNTlrSG THE RIGHT
OF HABEAS CORPUS TO THE FUGITIVE SLAVE,
which I. submitted to the Attorney General
(.Mr. Crittenden) and on being assured by him
that the law was not a violation of the Con
stitution, I therefore gave my sanction to the
bill.”
Hence, according to Air. Fillmore’s own
declaration before on audience of his own
Southern friends, lie doubted tne constitution
ality of the measure—be was opposed to it
because it did not provide a jury trial (as pro
posed by Biddings &. Co) to the absconding
slave—and only signed it when asured by Mr.
Crittenden that *‘it was not a violation of the
constitution,” John J. Crittenden, then, and
not Millard Fillmore, is entitled to the credit
of the assent of the Executive for signing the
Fugitive Slave Law.
Testimony of Andrew J. Donelson.
To prove what we here assert, we will in
troduce as a witness. Air. Fillmore’s associate
on the Know Nothing ticket—no less a persou-
age than Andrew J. Donelson!
In 1851, Donelson, through the columns of
the AA'ashington Union, said:
“As to the assertion that the Administration (of
Fillmore) ia entitled to the credit of standina up to
tlie measures of the Compromise in good faith.it is
too rhlh-ulous to require a denial, and too prejicster
ous to demand refutation. Every freo white citizen,
who is not an infant, idiot or lunatic, or woefully for
getful, knows that it Is utterly and entirely without
foundation. AH the measures of the compromise,
except the fugitive slave law, were self-enacting.
As to THAT LAW, Mr. Fillmore was UNWIL
LING to PERMIT it to BECOME A LAW before
he CONSULTED Mr. Crittenden on tho subject—
nfact vhich the Republic (his Qr"nn,)mrntiourd >at the
ttmt, in order to justify Mr. Fillmore before his North -
trri higher late friends for not returning the bill with
his objections.”
Judge Conklin’s Testimony.
Judge Conklin, of New York, a friend of
Alillard Fillmore and his Alinistcr to Alexico,
in a late speech, made the following apology
for him for signing the fugitive slave law:
“Ofthis, gentleman, 1 have to say a few
words, that arc due alike to him and to my
self. The friendly relations that have long
subsisted between us; the high opinion I en
tertain of his patriotism, integrity and talents;
the confidence he saw fit to repose in me, aud
the great personal kindness I received at his
hands while he tilled the Presidential oflicc,
all conspire to render it painful to me to with
hold fay support from him, and had he been
brought forward tinder other auspices, as I
cherished a vague hope ho might be, it would
have offered me a corresponding degree of
satisfaction to yield him that support.
I am aware of the persistent, and I doubt
not, to some extent, successful industry with
which for years he has been exhibited by
those who had formed a different estimate of
his character, in an attitude that, if I had be
lieved it to be just, would have rendered it
inconsistent in me holding the principles I do
relative to slavery, to favor his elevation to
the Presidency, under any circnmstances.
But iu imputing to him a willingness to extend
anil fortify slavery, / am persuaded his as-
mi/anls hare done him injustice, I believe, on
the contrary, that lie still holds slavery in the
abstract, as ho is known formerly to have
done, in as great abliortncc as they do. The
evidence constantly cited tojustify this charge
is the fact of his having affixed his signature
to tho fugitive slave bill. The alternative
was to interpose his vote. But no one had a
ri“ht to expect him to do this, for ho had no
right himself to do it. Either from doubt
about its constitutionality, or from reference
to the opinion of those who questioned it, he
did appoint the usual precaution of submitting
the bill to the examination of the Attorney
General and asking his opinion of its constitu
tionality. To have vetoed it under tho very
extraordinary circumstances of the case, would
have been, to say the least a palpable viola
tion of the constitution. No enlightened man
who understands the subject can doubt this,
god no such man can have been sincere in
casting censure upon Air. l-illmorc for adop
ting the opposite alternative.”
Testimony of another Friend.
The New Albany Tribune, the leading Fill
more organ ill Indiana, says:
•‘Air. Fillmore gave bis official sanction to
the fugitive slave bill because we (the free
soilers.) could not have got other laics on
which'our hearts were set, that wc have got,
had not that law been passed also, and because
ill iloiug BO be was but carrying out one of
tlie great principles of the party which elec
ted him—that the personal opinions of the
Executive on mere questions ot policy, ought
never to be brought into conflict with the will
of the peoples’ representatives, by an arbi
trary exercise of the veto power.”
Great Excitement at Borkport.
AVe learn from Kockport that a great ex
citement prevailed there yesterday. For some
time post, intemperance 1ms been greatly on
tlie increase, and during the present season
quite a number ol places have been opened
where intoxicating liquors could be procured
without stint. Finding the evil increasing,
the ladies of that unusually quiet village June
taken the matter into their own hands.
Yesterdav morning a delegation of about
■event v-five» beaded by an American flag, car
ried by a stout sailor, paraded through the
streets, and proceeding from place to place,
destroyed all the liquor they could lay their
bands on. Demijohns and dccantera were
smashed, and barrels of ruin, gin and brandy
were rolled into the streets and their bends
knocked in. AA’hercver any of the “entter
was found, loud shouts would resound from the
assembled hjiw.—GblotlcesUrfMass.) Jelc-

Phillips. This meeting was presided over by
Robt. A. T. Ridley, President, AA’m. P. Beas-
Jy, Vice-President, Hiram Denncc, A’icc-Pres-
ident, AA’illiam Huglty and James Scott, Sec
retaries. 1 have given the names of the offi
cers and committee, believing that when they
see tlie principles of Air. Fillmore, and con
sider how they have publicly professed agree
ment with him, that they will revoke the
edict, and wash oft’ the “ black spot” that will
follow them through life, unless publicly re
pudiated ere it festers upon them as the dam
ning curse that follows their idol, Air. Fill
more. For Southern men publicly and upon
the records of tho country to unqualifiedly
avow that they agree with Air. Fillrooro is
strange, passing strange. It requires a large
stretch of charity to reach such belief; and
yet, in the State of Georgia, with deliberate
and matured reflection, the elector, E. Y.j
Ilill, and others, without exception, broadly,
fully, altogether, declare that he aud they
“agree with Afr. Fillmore, and that he agrees
witli them.” They have put themselves upon
tlie record, and set forth their principles thus
fully and unreservedly, as agreeing with Air.
Fillmore, we shall not be thought evil of by
affording any one of them tho opportunity of
relieving themselves from this fatal confes
sional. Here is the third resolution of said
meeting, passed without objection so far as the
record shows :
Resolved, 3d, That he (Air. Fillmore) agrees
with us and that we agree with him ; and that
we will support him for that high and dis
tinguished oflicc, trusting to God for the re
sult.”
Here an avowal of agrocement seriatim
and altogether with Air. Fillmore. How, as
Georgians, should wc shriuk appalled and ex
claim, in astonishment, “ infatuated man has
the ‘glory departed from our people.”
Let us now proceed to ascertain the opin
ions of Air. Fillmore, so far ns the record goes
I say the record, because Air. Fillmore has
put upon the record his confession of faith.
To this I now call the people of Georgia, and
should any man doubt tho verity of the re
cord, let him call upon any intelligent man
in the community in which he lives and they
will be furnished chapter and,verse—(I mean
any man not the blind follower of Mr. Fill
more, and who honestly has investigated this
confession book.)

Merriwethcr, of Georgia objected to, the same
being oven entertained. Aus.—I voted for
Air. Briggs' resolution.
q U03 .—Are you in favor of or against the
repeal of the Alissouri Compromise bill. Aus.
I have fully endorsed the National Council
platform that denounces its repeal as “ reck
less, unwise and selfish.” In tny speech late-
ly, I have publicly stated my, "regret, at its
passage,” denouncing it as a Paudoras box.
If this is not satisfactory to you of my deter
mined opposition to the repeal of the .Missouri
bill, that degraded the South and placed her
States undera ban of inferiority, then I cannot
satisfy you. (See bis letter of acceptance,
and National Council platform and Rochester
speech.) "
<jaes.—Do j'ou oppose the 12th section of
the National Know Nothing platform of last
June, 1855. Ans.—The National Council
platform of February, 1836, that nominated
me for the Presidency, ignored that slavery
section and put another in its place more ac
ceptablc to freedom, and having, endorsed the
freedom platform, I have necessarily rejected
the iSthseetion platform.
Ques.—Are you in favor of squatter sover
eignty. Ans.—I am iu favor of “ the people
of a Territory managing their domestic affairs
without hinderanco from any outward influ
ence,” (see lits speeches.) The platform I
have endorsed says, “the people of a Territory
have the right to frame their own Constitution
and laws and regulate their own social and do
mestic affairs.”
I could not ever have consented to the
Know Nothing 12th section of last year, be
cause that invaded my dearest opinions anil
wishes. “ Legislation by Congress ought not
to be had in the Territories on the subject of.
slavery,” and “ it would be a violation of tlie
compact between the United States and Alary-
land and contrary to good faith to abolish
slavery in the District of Columbia, is the
language of tlie Know Nothing platform of
last year. Such doctrines I could never tol
crate—see my letter to my dear friends
Erie. I give it to you as showing 1113’ faith
and opinions that I have stuck to through all
my Congressional career aud through life.”
Ques.—Did you favor the passapro of the
fugitive slave bill—Ans.—No. I disapprov
ed—did not like—and hesitated, 'and would
not sign it until Mr. Crittenden, Attorne3’
General, certified it was constitutional.V
Ques.—Did you in signing the Compromise
measures of 1850, believe you were aiding in
the repeal of the Alissouri Compromise bill.
Aus.—I did not, and never anticipated grant
ing such a boon to the South—I believed in
assenting to those bills, that all the Territory
hereafter to come into the Union as States
was covered aud protected by the Alissouri
line, and that no Territory North of that line
could ever have slavery iu it, hut how sur
prised am I that that bill should bo repealed,
and Kansas Terri tor}- now probably will fall
into the lap of the South—(see m3' Rochester
speech.)
Ques.—Are 3'ou in favor of the principle
of the Kansas and Nebraska act. Ans—I
refer 3'ou to my Rochester speech. I con
demn thpse measures, as the opening Pando
ras’ box—and m3' keen regrets at their enact
ment.
Ques.—Are you in favor of punishing tie
gro stealers and thieves. Ans.—No—for
proof, I refer 3'ou to tny pardoning those ne
gro stealers in the District of Columbia, after
they were convicted and sent to the penitenti
ary.
Ques.—Are you in favor of the execution
of the fugitive slave bill. Ans.—Xo-^-for
proof I ret'er you to my failure to execute the
same in Boston. Syracuse and Pennsylvania,
To the fate of Gouscoitch, a southerner, who
was killed in Pennsylvania, for attempting to
recover his slaves.
■ Ques.—Are you disposed to snpport and
defend the character of southern gentlemen
in discharge of their official duties. Ans.
No—for proof, I refer you to my treatment of
Hon. A. F. Owen, of Talbot county. Geo,
who can and will satisfy you if necessa^',
Above, I have given a few of the many
open confessions of faith of Mr. Fillmore. I
have not referred to all specially, but if any
gentleman believes tho record is not fairly
copied, if lie will look to the Journals of the
House of Representatives, from the sessions
of 1838, up to the time Air. Fillmore left, ho
will find every vote I have referred to, to be
as stated, &c.
What a confession! AVbat a book of faith
Can Georgians subscribe to such a record
and agree with Air. Fillmore in his polit
ical opinions? AVho would have believed
it a few 3'eavs ago—when that patriot, James
Buchanan threw himself in the breach, breast
ed the storm, and said to the tempest tost el
ements, thus far shall thou go and no farther
—when the majestic form of Buchanan, as
he stood in the Senate, battling for the South
jainst incendiary pamphlets being sent out
in the mails, against the odious Wilmot Pro
viso, against the repeal of slavery in the Dis
trict of Columbia, voting with Air. Calhoun
aub bis Southern resolutions. In those days
no man iu Georgia would have dared hope for
quiet, who should have openly avowed agree,
meat with Mr. Fillmore. Surely- it is not
with this record the meeting in LaGrangc
avowed agreement of opinion? Yet what

he had come from the extremities of Asia to

A AVife Shot nr hu Husband.—Caroline,
July 14th, 1856.—Last Friday morning, about
‘ o’ clock, Mr. William M. Kqlly was sud-
anly aroused from his sleep, and under the
impression that his house was being broken
into, seized his’gun and instantaneously lired
upon some one, as he thought, entering the
door; but to his horror he found he had shot
his wife, wlfo was fastening it. The shot en
tered just in front and above the right hip,
penetrating deep into the body. Two physi
cians were immediately- called in, but found
her beyond hopes, She lingered rcsigucdly
aud uncomplainingly- until about four o’ clock
aturday morning, when she died, leaving
an almost distracted husbaud, an infant son
eleven months old, aud a large number of
latious and connections to mourn her loss.
Air. and -Airs. Kelly had been married
early two years, and were living most hapr
pily together, wheu the unfortunate occur
rence, like a thunder-bolt, destroyed her ex-
teuee and blighted his. He was, at night,
timid, and in the habit of keeping a loaded
gun near bis bed; hence the terrible accident.

Tlie Gutipo-.vtlct- Plot at HSvigluton,
MASSACHUSETTS.
At an early-hour on last-Thursday morning,
tlie house of Thomas AVctheren, ia’ Brighton,
near Boston, was blown up by gunpowder, a
keg of powder having been placed in the
kitchen. The Boston Traveller has the fob
lowing particulars of the diabolical attempt:
The house iu question is capacious and
strongly built, two stories and a half high in
front, and three in the rear, with a cupola on
.top. aud is worth several thousand dollars.—
It is situated on Union square, opposite the
new Baptist Aleeting House, and is occupied
by- Air. Wetheren, whose family- number sev
en, and by his partner, Mr. Cyrus Brown
and family- five in numder.
The oxplosion occurred at about 1 A. AI
Mr. AVctheren and his wife slept in a chamber
in the rear, above the sittin<r room, and below
the latter is the cellar kitchen, in which as is
supposed from the staves that were found, the
keg of powder was placed.
Mrs. AA’etheren was aroused by the noise of
the explosion, and though she had no distinct
idea of what had occurred, spoke to her hus
baud, who immediately became aware that a
dense smoke was filling the room, the plaster
ing of the sitting room below having been torn
off in such a manner as to admit its free pas
sage. He hurried down stairs the back way,
bnt could not enter the kitchen on account of
the thick' smoke. He perceived, however,
that the house was on fire, aud directing his
wife and children to leave by- another passage
way, he obtained a firkin of water standing
near tbc house, aud with the aid of tlie neigh
bors, who soon assembled, succeeded
quenching the flames, though the powder
snfoke, which filled the house for several hours,
led the inmates to search repeatedly during
the night from fear that in some parts it was
still on fire.
The chief scene of disaster was in the rear.
The kitchen is a mass of ruins. A stout
brick wall is in some parts thrown down and
in others cracked and broken so that it must
be demolished. The window frames and
blinds are blown out bodily, some, of them
landing at a considerable distance from the
house. The stout partition of a shed adjoin
ing the kitchen was thrown down, the door be
ing blown off and broken. The walls above
the kitchen was blown up aud the furniture of
the sittting room had fallen down, filling the
kitchen with broken stuff, furniture, boards,
crockery, &c., iu one mass of ruin. The
large cooking stove in the kitchen was broken.
A considerable quantity of matches were
found upon the top of it, of a different kind
from those used in the house. In tho cellar
a partition was blown down and the beams
started. ',
The parlor, which is in front, on the same
floor with, the sitting room, is filled with the
fragments of the furniture witli which it was
furnished. A heavy sofa lies in front of the
fire place, having been thrown across the room
by the rising of a portion of the floor for about
a foot. Alahogauy chairs were broken into
small pieces, and a card table was nearly de
molished together with smaller articles. A
looking glass fell with the face downward up
on the floor aud was not broken. The win
dow fratrics of this room were blown out.
This is the chief damage in the part occupied
by Air. AVethereri.
It was fortunate for the inmates that they- all
slept in the upper part of the house, which is
uninjured, the powerful powder blast finding
vent by bursting out the sides of the lower
part of the building. The clock in the kitchen
of ‘Mr. AA’etheren stopped at half past one,
which-indicates very nearly the time of the ex
plosion.
The inmates of the adjoining house were all
awakened by the shock, which shook the fur
niture as if au earthquake had occurred. This
morning a large crowd were examining the
ruins anil, measures were taken to have a legal
investigation, by calling on a Justice of tlie
Peace to hold a fire'inquest.
The Oltl Mill.
Live and ilie! live and die!
And all the weary, weary years go by,
And the quaint old mill'stands still;
The suu-mixed shade, like a spotted snake,
Lies half-hidden in the bosky brake,
And half across the rilL
The summer comes and the winter comes.
And tho flowerlilooms and the striped bee hums.
And the old mill stands in tho son; ,
The lichen hangs from the walls aloof,
And the rusty nails from the ragged roof,
■Drop daily, one by one.
The long grass grows in tho shady pool.
Where the cattle used to "come to cool,
Aud the rotting wheel stands still; -
The gray owl winks in the granary loft.
And the sly rat slinks, with a pit pat soft,
' From the hopper of the quaint old mill.

The Mask Dropping Off.—It is now un
tier stood to be reduced to a certainty that the
fricuds of Fillmore in Pennsylvania design
uniting with those of Fremont in the support
of a single electoral ticket, whose votes, as an
electoral college, are to be pledged to be
given for Fremont, if that may be the best
policy by way of securing the defeat of Buch
anan. The scheme was arrauged in this city
by the speculation clique—the dealers in Mar-
aposff claim stock, in special treasury- favors,
Sic., &c.—who. are the clieif managers of the
Presidential campaign on the part of that
enterprising young man. ” It lias been
acceded to with great alacrity, we hear, by
the Fillmore leaders ot Pennsylvania, aud will
doubtless be carried out with equal zeal by
the Fillmore masses of the State—it being
against the constitution and regulations of
“the order,’for subordinates iu the lodges to
disobey the determination of their authorities.

CAITBOM
Since the announcement of the new principle to
which the composition and singular success of my
“ Antidote to Malaria,’* is owing, several active and
unprincipled quacks have forthwith made thesamo
claims in favor of their poisonous nostrums, that
were before destitute of any but the usual wholesale
Laudation that accompanies disgUMting quark rv.
I notice one firm who nianutactures a pill, have
taken one of my general circulars, prefaced it with
the cry of “An Antidote to Malaria found at la?t,"
substituted the name of their nostrum for my Medi
cine and then, with brazen impudence, end their
pamphlet with the exclamation, “ Let the proprietor
of any other medicine say ns much if lie dares !"
Against such swindlers it is impossible to do more
than warn tho public in general terms; anymore
definite notice -would only bring them into the noto
riety they aspire to. There is tins consolation, how
ever, that they can deceive few but the most ignor
ant—their only chance for success being to steal tho
language and belongings of respectability, which,
like the liou’s skin, always proves to be merely a
temporary disguise.
Beyond the following statements, therefore, the
public must protect itself: *
Premising that I make no claim which i support
by my own assertion alone, I am constantly publish
ing proofs from well-known and disinterested par
ties iii every part of the Union.
First.—I claim to offer to*the public a harmless
medicine, audits innocence I establish beyond ques
tion by the certificate of chemical analysis given i»y
the eminent Chemist, Dr. James R. Chilton, of New
York, a copy of which I attach to every bottle of
the “ Cure ;" and how great a blessing to the world
such a remedy must be, all the victims to Fever and
Ague medicines that arc yet alive can appreciate
better than words can express.
Second.—I claim that, as an “Antidote to Mala
ria," it is not only an absolute Preventive of all
diseases caused by a poisonous and foul atmosphere,
such as Fever and Ague, or Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, and other Intermittent and Remittent fevers;
Bilious Fevers, accompanied by Typhoid Symp
toms; Typhoid Fever; Yellow Fever, Ship aud
Jail Fever, General Debility, Night Sweats, and like
forms of disease; but that it is the natural, unerring
and unfailing cure for them. This I establish by
the unsolicited and voluntary testimony, which I
frequently publish, both of individuals who have
used it, and particularly that of respectable dealers
who have sold it. The* letters that I daily receive
and constantly publish, from druggist* and merchants
in every part of the L T nited States, stating that they
have sold from two dozen, to one or more gross,
and that “every bottle has effected a cure," thereby
creating a demand for more, constitute evidence
that cannot honestly be disputed or denied.
I neither have or show any hostility to other ague
medicines or their proprietors, believing that every
medicine should stand on its own merit. All that I
protest against is, that unprincipled knaves should
make use of my language, and assume the principles
I maintain, in order to impose their secret nostrum*
upon the sick and dying, lor the sake of a few pieces
