la the Territories of Washington and Oregon,
•narrow hands of Indians are in arms, and are
waging s war of extermination against the white in-
kabiisnts; and although our troops are already car-
rriecon the campaign, vre liavo no intelligence as
wiefaittcressful result. On the western plains,
iwtwithstsnding the imposing display of military
fort recently made there, and the chastisement in
dieted on the rebellions tribes, others, far from be

inn the State of Florida; and the withdrawal of
ffr troops therefrom, leaving the object unneeom-
piUbed, wouid be most injurious to tho inhabitants,
! ud t breach of the positive engagements of the
Gncral Government.
To refuse supplies to the army, therefore, is to
compel the complete cessation of all its operations,
ud iu practical disbandment, and tints to invite
hordes of predatory savages from tho western plains
tad the Kooky Mountains to spread devastation
slogs frontier of more than four thousand miles in

-flw feirful sacrifice of life and incalculable des-
trartton of property on the remote frontiers—the
unking of our national flag on tho battlements of the

tho oyi-s of the civilised world.
1 confidently trust that these considerations, and
others appertaining to the domestic peace of the
country which cannot fail to suggest themselves to

Ami what is this second combination to elect n
President by Northern votes, nml outlaw fifteen
States of this Unlont Is it not the limnl descendant
of tbo sectinnal Hartford Convention? I have given
you tbo political doctrines of that Convention, oil
tlto only two issues which the opponents of the dem
ocratic party now raise in the Presidential election,
slavery and foreign born.
Tho Hartford Convention laid down as tln-ir pl.-it-
fi'iin. li.. more slave representation, no tiion- slave
States, no more foreign born to hold any civil otlice
in the United States.
That v as their polite :tl bible. u lit 11 lie-y opposed.
James Mndison, the war of t81‘-\ and the admission
of Louisiana as a slave holding State. Whoso bible
is it now ? The Democrats ? No. It is the mixed
up creed of a combined party, known os tho black
repulican, know notliiiig-Aihcriraii, free soil, anti-
slavery, fusion party. That is tho sectional geo
graphical party of lehSC, the lineal descendant of tho
sectional geographical party of 1814.
Is it not so T War upon the .South, the admission
ot no more Southern States with equal rights with
the old States to establish or reject domestic slavery
as they may elect, and the prohibition by Congress
..I - ry in .-.11 th.- i"in t. rrilory I. 1 .-- l i.il. d
States, which belongs alike to South and North.
That is tho blnck side of tho picture. Hartford
Convention in every shade, perspective and fore
ground. On the other side, is the same old dogma
of proscription of nil foreign born.
Am 1 not right then ; historically, politically, pre
cisely right, in affirming that tho creeds of tic* only
sectional, geographical parties ever organized in any
number of states to sever the Northand South, are
the same in principle aud purpose, one and indivisi

[from the Savannah Georgian.J
Tlie Speech Of the Honorable B. I
hallet.
We have rend with great pleasure the speech
of this gent leman, recently delivered iu Maine,
and it is with feelings of triumph that we giv
sonic extracts from it. Wc can show by them
how our friends (who are the friends of the
u liole Sooth) speak to tho people of the North
1 here is no mincing of language—no Fill
morean suavity and oilyness, but the plain
out-spoken truth. If anything in the world
could open the eyes of the American party in
Georgia, it is tho sentiments of 6ucli a inan as
Ilallet. In the very liot-bed of Abolition? .
—Bostou, he dares to live and entertain sncl:
sentiments. Show us ..uything like it any
where North of Mason Sz Dixson’s line.
'i here arc thousands of men at the North
hoi,ling exactly such opinions, who call upon
the South to strengthen their hands, and that
they will fight the battle upon the broad ground
of equality and justice ; and yet there are men
at tbc South with such palpable evidence of
the right path to follow, and alsulutely nothin
to recommend their own party, who persist iu
clinging to (ho last rag of an Ex-Presidential
vestment, as the pieces of the “ true cross'
were treasured by the bigots of a credulou
age-. .
Vi ItileMr. Fillmore in bis letters and speech
es, invariably dodges the great question, and
talks about “ the constitution and his past ca
recr,” Mr. Ilallet meets the issue at the
threshold, aud thus speaks of it:
“ The Slave Power.”
Be not deceived by a name. Tho power they stig
ntatize ns tho slave power ia that Democratic rower
acting by democratic majorities South and North
wltielt hits made this county democratic ; which lias
preserved tho equality of States and the vitality of
thu Union, by sustaininganatioual governim-ntot ex
pressly delegated powers, instead of a consolidated
government of undefined usurping powers. It is
that Democratic power which acquired Louisiana
and the free navigation of the .Mississippi in lr03,—
admitted her as an equal Stato in 181C,—sustained
(be second war of ludepcnee,—purchased FI* ridn
in 1814,—annexed Texas in 1845,—conquered a peace
with Mexico in 1848,—extended our borders to the
Pacific in is 19, and laid the foundation of nil
pire of States along its endless shores, it is tlui
power which in the half century of onr Union, has
expanded this lb-public from thirteen to thirty one
States. It is is the political power tnori over, wliiel
has given us by its votes Eleven demoeratic admin
Ltrattons.and under them formed and established eve-
ry great meaaurc.of finance* and of domestic policy that
has agitated the country, until nil pnrties have nr-
qniesci-d in their final settlement by the Demoeratic
party. If that is “/ArNfore Poircr" against which
demagogues, political parsons, law breakers, and
union haters rail, mark it well brother democrats of
the North !—it is the progressive, conservative, dein
oevaticnml constitutional power of this Union, North
and South! 'And_\vheii Northern democrats, mis
led by that false cry against their brethren, shall
shake hands with Northern fusionist, or Southern
know-nothings, to strike down thnt power, they will
deliver the Constitution, the Union and the Democ
racy bound band and foot, over to their worst ene
mies.
I challenge our opponents to name any one great
measure of national policy, any act of progress and
enlargement of our country and its liberties; any
prominent and enduring legislation at homo or di
plomacy abroad, that lias not been made a part of
our laws and institutions, by democratic aJminutra-
Haas rLoscu and tnottuHCtl by the votes of Southern and
Sortktrn democrats against Sortkrrn and Southern
minorities ! Tbo local fact that Southern democrats
held slaves, has no more to do with thu democratic
nower which has prevailed In tMs Union, (Mattie . „ - * ; *, • . ,
fact that Southern federalists and Southern know- lure Ot a sombrero. Phis change is founded
nothings owned slaves. And never did you bear
this false cry of “ slave power" raised against those
slaveholders at thu South, who have joined with the
federalists, the whigs, tha know-nothings, or the
freesoilers of the North to put down democratic ad
ministrations. Mark thnt democrats, and take n les
son from it When your opponents cry “ slavepow
er,” they mean, just what tho Hartford convention
federalists meant iu 1814, the democratic power.
Aggression of tho South.
Hence, sectional division was the first aggression
of the North upon the South, not because it held
slaves, but because it bold Thomas Jefferson and
democratic Totes Mwagfa, arltsa ooanbtnAd with thto
th* it few Northern Democratic States, to twice elect
him to the Presidency. ■
Upon the second election of Mr. Jefferson, it was
plain that the lost political power of New England
could be regained only by putting down the South
ern Democratic States' and preventing the admission
of new States from thu South and Weat, which have
always come in demoeratic States. To aid this sec
tionai policy there was but one subject upon which
the people of the States disagreed pri—iscly according
to geographical line*. That was domestic slarery;
the cry of “slavery!” The Hartford Convention
seized upon that geographical element of discord to
divide and conquer the united Southern and Norik
ern IWmocrary. The lir-I movement in that Con
vention was against what they th. u denounced, just
aa our opponents do now, “ the prsq.endurance of the
slave power” They demanded of the South as the
conditions of continuing the Union—
First.—That slaves should not be counted as three
fifths of the population required to make up the ratio
of representation. ,
Second.—That a two-thirds vote in Congress should
bo required to admit any new State, to lay an embar
go, and to declare war.
Third.—And in so many words they ” Resolved,
that no jtrrson who shall hereafter be naturalized, shall
be eligible as a member of the Senate or House of Jlep-
resesuatives of the Vailed Stales, nor capable, of hold
ing any civil office under the authority of the United
Slates,
In the same spirit the Know Nothing Convention,
Feb. M, 1856.) laid down their narrow platfonn-
iledging the party to •• the advancement to all polit-
cal stations, executive, legislative judicial or diplo
matic, of those only who art Americans by birth, edn-
ilion, and training.”
These changes lit government it was proposed to
fleet not in tho mode provided for amending the
Constitution, but, after the manner of tho attempted
revolution in Kansas by conventions chosen by the
petals in each State, outside of the Constitution.
Massachusetts with Iter Hartford Convention bill,
was at the head of tliat geographical party of disunion
lh* n, ns with her '‘personal liberty” nullification
bill, she is at the In ml of tho geographical disunion
party of blaek republicans and know nothings, now.
Does any party exist, which will maintain that tho
Hartford (Jon vention of 1-M was not a geographical,
sectional organization of tlmledoral North against
the democratic South f There wero then ninenon-
lave-holding and nine slave-holding 6tutes in the
Union. Every Northern State except Vermont,
Vnnsylvaiiia, and Ohio, were in tho opposition.—
Every slave-lmlding State except Delaware was dem
ocratic.
Who Holds the Hartford Convention Creed 1
I have given you from tho record, the creed of
he first geographical sectional party formed in this
country. Where is that creed notv I lit tho Coaii-
' n Conventions of tho “ It* publicans” and “ North
Aim-ricans” that nominated .Mr. Fremont, and also
tbo Convention of” Booth Am -rienns” ami seced
ing Northern know nothings, that nominated Mr.
Fillmore.
Tho first geographical party failed in its purpose
■■ oonqnor the democratic South or dissolve the
"nion, because Pennsylvania and New York re
minded the sectionalism of Massachusetts. The
Icntocrats of the North could not tiion bo milled by
is false cry against ”lbo slave power.” to join in
tliat sectional conspiracy against the Union. Thor
II understood that Hi*- slave representation which
s denounced then, just us it is now, was not only
OtidKioti of tho Union under ihn Constitution, but
no wise unjust or unequilj because the slaves ot
■ Sontli. as :i portion ot its population, -ssCar were
substitute lor, and displaced tree population, and
therefore should be counted in the ratio ot reprtsen-
Strance, indeed it is, that those who hold
tation. Strange, mue.-a it is. mm
it, d n slave is a whole man, should complain that be
, illowed to count as three tilths of a man! But
The Extra Session.
Washington, D. C., Aug. 23.—The Sen
ate by a vote 35 against 9, insist on striking
out the Kansas provisos from tlic army bills,
and tho disagreement between the two Houses
is consequently continued and the bills arrest
ed.
Senator Clnyton lias proposed a Joint Com
mittee of Conference, and bis motion is order
ed for a consideration on Monday, 25th.
The Ilouse of Representatives laid on tho
tabic by a vote of IUI against S3, a resolution
reviviug the “Missouri Compromise,” and then
by a vote of 108 to 87, insisted on adhering to
the Kansas amendments.
Washington, August 25.—Senator Well
er gave notice, in due form, of his intention to
offer a bill annulling all the laws of the Kan
sas Legislature, as in the eighteenth section of
the “ Pacification bill.”
Botli Houses adjourned without business,
after the customary resolutions of respect to the
memory of Mr. Meachatn Representative from
Vermont, whoso decease was announced.
_ Aug. 2Uth.—Tito Army bill was not con
sidered to-day. The Senate discussed Mr.
Weller’s bill repealing the obnoxious laws of
Kansas, but came to no decision.
Aug. 27.—Both Houses have appointed a
committee of conference upon the Army bill.
The House has passed a resolution to ad
journ to-morrow. The Senate has not acted
m the matter.
Prospect iu Maryland.
A friend now on a visit to Maryland writes
us as follows in regard to the prospects of
Buchanan in that State;
“When Fillmore accepted his nomination, I
set down Maryland as probably good for bis
electoral ticket. I continued to be of this
opiuion until since my arrival here. Now, I
have backed the opposite opinion by the ven
upon the fact that, with but one or two cxcep
tions, every prominent Whig in the State is
advocating the election of James Buchanan.
I do not follow the example of a certain near
neighbor of yours, and make this assertion at
hazard. / can name the men. Besides the
two U. S. Senators Pratt and Pearce, I name
ex-Sonators Merrick, Chambers and Johnson,
Judge Eclcston, of the Court of Appeals, Alex.
Evans, Lite Whig member of Congress from
this district. Col. J. C. Goodin, an old Clay
Whig, well known throughout tlie State. In
this county, I do not know a single lawyer of
any standing who is not now with the Dcrn
ocratic party. And I beleave I might almost
say the smite of every county in the State.
With these facts before me, I cannot but be
lieve that Maryland is safe for Bucbatiau and
tin* I iii.iti.
In Washington nobody is mi ignorant a- to
talk of Fillmore’s prospects seriously. The
contest is known to be between Buchanan and
Fremont, and no Democrat wishes Fillmore
out of tlic field. Tlie Democrats know tluit
in the Northern States every vote cast for
Fillmore is a vote taken from Fremont."—Sav.
Georgian.
Terrible Affair.—A correspondent of
the Petersburg Intelligencer says :
A most shocking occurrence took place in
Fincastlc a few nights since. A gentleman
with several motherless children, arrived at
that place, and in the course of the night the
inmates of the Hotel were aroused by terriflie
screams, and on tracing up tlie sound found
that it cmnnntcd from the room iu which tlic
cntlcman and his children lodged. Breaking
the door open, the horrified spectators saw
that lie was laboring under a horrible dream,
or night-marc, aud was in the act of pulling out
the tongue of his youngest child, whom he bad
taken to sleep in the bed with him. He .was
immediately aroused to seethe body of his little
child dreadfully bruised and lacerated, and
told those who had awakened him, that be had
dreamed that some one was murdering the
child, and he was trying to rescue it. His ago
ny was said to be indescribable. At the time
tlie passenger left Fin castle for this place, the
poor child was alive, but in an extremely per
ilous condition.

In another column of to-days' paper will he found

has it for sale, informs us that he has sold several

((ACTION.
Since the announcement of the new principle to
which the composition and singular success of my
“ Antidote to Malaria,” is owhi", several active nnd
unprincipled quacks have forthwith made the same
claims in fnTor of their poisonous nostrums, that
were before destitute of any but tho usual wholesale
laudation that accompanies disgusting quackery.
I notice one firm who mauulaeturea a pill, have
taken one of my general circulars, prefaced it with
the cry of “An Antidote to Malaria found at last,”
substituted the name of their nostrum for my Medi
cine nnd then, with brazen Impudence, end their
pamphlet with the exclamation, “ Let the proprietor
of any other medicine say as muclr if he daves!”
Against such swindlers it is Impossible to do more
than warn tho public in general terms; any more
definitonotice would only bring them into tbo noto
riety they aspire to. Tlt-ro is this consolation, how
ever, thnt they can deceive few but the most igttor-
nnt—fheir ouly chance for success buing to steal the
language and belongings of respectability, which,
like tho lion's skin, always proves to bo merely a
temporary disguise.
Beyond tho following statements, therefore, the
public must protect itself:
Premising Hint 1 make no claim which I support
hy otyowti nssi-rtfon alone, lam constantly publish
ing proofs from well-known aud disinterested par
ties ia evert’ part of tlic Union.
l'lttsT.—I claim to offtr to tho public a harmless
medicine, and its iiiuocencu 1 establish beyond ques
tion by the certificate of chemical analysts given by
the eminent Chemist, Dr. James B. Chilton, of New
York, a copy ot which. 1 attach to every, bottle of
tho “ Cureand how great a blessing to the world
such a remedy must be, all the victims to Fev^r and
Ague medicines that are yet alive cau appreciate
better than words can express.
Second.—1 claim that, as an “Antidote to-Maln-
ria.” it is not only an absoluto Preventive of ail
diseases caused-by a poisonous nml foul atmosphere,
such ns Fever and Ague, or Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, and other Intcrmitfont and HeinlMent fevers;
Bilious Fever*, accompanied by Typhoid Symp
toms; Typhoid Fever; Yellow Fever, Ship and
Jail Fever, General Debility, Night Sweats, and like
forms of disease; but that it is tlie natural, unerring
and unfailing cure for them. This I establish by
the unsolicited and voluntary testimony, which I
frequently publish, botli of individuals who have
used it, and particularly that of respectable dealers
who have sold it Tho letters that I . daily receive
and constantly publish, from druggists and merchants
in every part of the United States, stating that they
have sold from two dozen, to one or more gross,
and tliat “every buttle has effected a cure,".thereby
creating a demand for more, constitute evidence
that cannot honestly be disputed or ilouied.
I neither have or show any hostility* to other ague
medicines or thoir proprietors, believing that every
iuediciuo should stand on its own merit. All that 1
protest against is, that unprincipled knaves should
make uso of my language, and assume the principles
I maintain, in order to impose their secret nostrums
upon tho'sick und dying, tor the sake of a few pieces
