The wea| ons of this warfare are not carnal. We ac

lieving that if let atone, with truth on our side, we can
bring it forth to vistory.

Mr. Euitop- Dear Sir : l hear of several withdraw
als of Know Nothings from the Councils in this and ad
joining counties, and hear of more that intend doing so. i
Maj. Hawes, of this county, an Old Line Democrat, has
withdrawn, anti talks freely against the party. He as- .
sured mo on last Monday, while tho party was publicly I
ratifying, in the Court House, the Philadelphia platform, ;
and their Macon platform, that they had left a heap out j
or uutold. which he woulu expose then and there if he was •
only gifted with oratory. Ido not think they had more j
than 80 members present at the ratification. C on. j

Whigs of Maine. —The straight out Whigs ot Maine j
held a Convention at Portland last Thursday, and nomina.,
ted Isaac Reed, of Waldoboro’, for Governor. The meet
ing was large and harmonious. Resolutions were passed
decidedly Anti-Nebraska, Anti-Know Nothing, and op
posed to the present liquor law, although favoring strin
gent laws regulating traffic in intoxicating drink.
A Bird in the Hand, — This wise maxiin appears
not to have been forgotten by the present Know Nothing
candidate for Governor of this State. Judge Shortridge, j
holds on to his office of Circuit Judge, while running for j
that of Governor of the State. A fitting commentary on j
that virtuous feature of the Know Nothing creed that de* i
xiounee* the “wild hunt for office” —isn’t it ?— Mobile \

Another"Prominent’Whig against them ! —The Hon.
Richard VV. Walker, of Florence, Alabama, —the most
distinguished Whig of the State—being, at different times,
their candidate for Presidential elector, Governor and
United States Senator, and a Whig representative in tho
Legislature, made an nuti Know Nothing speech in Lau
derdale county the ether day.
Talking Strongly. —The Indiana State Sentinel says *
Speaking for the Democracy of Indiana, we proclaim that
any party which refuses to admit anew State on the same
equal terms with tho other States of this confederacy but
attempts to attach toiler admission conditions which tram
mel her 00-equa! sovereignty, is a party which ought to
die, will’ die, a%l, by the help of God, we intend to do all
we can to make it die.
Judge Shortridge took pains to tell us that office holders
were trembliug before the face of the redoubted “Sam.”
As wk learn nothing of an intention on the part of the
Judge to resign, we suppose he is not one of the tremblers,
as he will hold on to a rather fat place in any event.

CS*'” The best evidence that can be adduced in favor of
the efficaciousness of Hooffand’s German Bitters, prepared by
Dr. C. M. Jackson, is the uuprecedent demand for them from

pounds prepared and represented as being worthy of a liberal
patronage,yet we feel constra ned to remark, that the vast num
ber of testimonials with which the worthy doctor has been
honoieil, by persons of the highest character aud readabil

is testimony sufficiently conclusive, that a more effectual rem

Worms! Worms!—A great many learned Treatises
have beeu written, explaining the wiigiu of, and c’assilying
the worms generated in the human system. Scarcely any
topic of medical science has elicited more acute observation
and profound research; and yet physicians are very much divi
ded in opinion on the subject. It must be admitted, however,
that,after all, a mode of expelling these worms, and purifying
the body from their presence, is of mo e value than the wisest !
disquitions a- to the origin. The expelling agent has at length
been found—Dr. M’Lane’* Vermifuge is the much sought af- !
ter specific, and has already superceded all other worm med
icines, its efficacy being universally acknowledged by medical
practitioners.
Purchasers will please be careful to ask for DR. M’LANE’S

Two Boxes have completely cured the worst of ulcers
on the legs.
Small doses seldom fail to cure the Piles.
One dose cures the headache arising irom a foul stomach.
Strong doses often repeated expel every worm from the
body.
They should be given to children who are always more
or less affected with this scourge.
Asa gentle physic they have no equal.
One Box cures derangement of tho Liver.
Half a Box cures a Cold.
They purify the blood, and thus strike at the foundation i

Dear Sir:—l send you this to certify to you that vonr Ex
tract of Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla has performed one of
me most wonderful cure: pn me that has ever been effected on i
m n.
1 have been afflicted for forty years with eruptions on my !
legs and feet; iu 1848 they got so bad that J iad to go on i
crutches, and in 1849 I had one leg amputated above tho knee, i
In about nine months after my other leg,broke out in large !
eatingaud running sores from my knee to my foot, and dis- !
charged a great deal of offensive matter. My groin a> a> uroke ;
out in large biles, which discharged much offensive matter,and j
at toe same time my left hand broke out in running sores j
nearly to my elbow.
The misery that have suffered for iho last two years 1 can- *
not desci ibe to j ou. I was m such agony that I never rested
day or night.
1 ri October last niy son brought me one of your bottle wrap
pers: I read it, and found record of some’wonderful cures
performed by jour “Extract of Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla*
I sent and got iv. o bottles of it. and ‘commenced taking it. In
two weeks, to my great astonishment, my sorer all became ca
sy,and I could sleep all night, a thing I had not done for two i
i years- When I had taken six bottle-, my sores had nearly all i
healed. My sores got well as if by enchantment. 1 have now j
used in all eiuht bottles ol your “Extract of Yellow Dock and i
Sarsaparilla,* and now consider myself well.
1 entreat all of the afficited to try “ibis medicine, for I believe !
1 it will cure any known disease in the world. Lav aside all i
prejudice* and ju?.t try it. and proclaim Jits great w orth to 1
suffering mankind and entreat them to take it, for it will cure i
them.
-By ease is well known in a lar;e portion of South C arolina, ;
i Georgia and Aiab ima. and if any should doubt the above
; cure,l invite them to’call on me, and l will show them the 1
i scars, i can be found in.Tallapoosa County Alabama, one i
| mile from Sloe’s Ferry.
