lloufo for tho bill, there was not one Northern Know
Nothing. Bad, therefore, as a portion of the Northern
Democrats are, (suoh men for instance, as I)ix, Van Bo
ren C 0.,) justice to such of them as are true to the
Constitution, requires it to be made known, that a ma
jority of them in both Houses of Congress, including good
and bad together, stood by the rights of the South on this
great question. And if the Kansas Bill had been left to
the Northern Democrats, only, including sound and un- j
6ound, the measure would have been carried in both j
Houses of Congress without another vote either for or
against it from the North or South. These are impor j
tant facts for the South to be informed upon and to con
sider well before they join any national party* one of
whose main objects is to “crush out” and “put down ’
those men at the North vrho have proved themselves true,
not only to the Union , but to the Constitution , and our
rights under it, even if they do call themselves Democrats

principles and not their names.

Foreign Military Companies in Cincinnati.
Cincinnati, July 13.
General Sargent to*day made a formal demand on each
of the military companies composing Irish battalions, to
deliver up forthwith all the arms, appendages and accou
trements in their possession. The order was obeyed by
only one compiny, whereupon General Sagent served out
writs of replevin, and the Sheriff took possession oi‘ the
entire accoutrements of the other companies.
A similar demand is to be made on the various German
companies. The cause of this is the insubordination that
was manifested on tho Fourth of July celebration. There
is considerable excitement on the subject.

■Air. Lomax:— l see some ot the corps editorial (I do
not know who.) say I cordially approve the resolutions
passed in Miliedgovilie on the sth June. It is strange any
one should have ventured such an assertion, when it is sta
ted that 1 moved to strike out one of them, and I believe
you know I moved in Committee to strikeout all about the
Know .Nothings. Again.it is stated that I intended tdD
move a postponement of the Convention and abandon it 1
in disgust alter 1 saw Mr. Holt’s letter. Not so. Before
1 got to MiUedgeville, 1 said I would move & postpone I
inept, and l felt under some obligation to do so even after I
found it would meet with no favor. When I saw Mrr-
Jiolt’s letter 1 felt no longer under such an obligation, but i
felt no disgust about it and certainly I -did not authorize
any one to.feel disgusted for me. Please make room for this
aud oblige Your Ob’t. Serv’t.

Uiseaaes oT the Liver.—When the celebrattxl Dr.
Rush uecl red drunkenness was a disease, beenunciaiod a truth
which tins experience and observation of medical men is eve
ry day confirming. The many apparently insane excesses of
those who Indulge in the use of spirituous liquors, ma; be
bus accounted lor. Tbo true cause of conduct, which is taken
for infatuation* is very frequently a diseased state of the Liver.
No organ of the system, when deranged, produces a more
frightful catalogue of diseases. And if, instead of applying
remedies to the manifestations of disease, as is to olten the
case, physicians would prescribe with a view *o tho original
cause, fewer deaths would result from diseases induced by a
deranged stato of the Liver. Three fourths of the diseases
enumerated under the head of Consumption, have their seat
in a diseased Liver. fSee Dr. Gunn* great works.)
Purchasers will please bo careiu! to ask for DR. M’LANE'S
CELEBRATED LI VER PILLb, and take none else. There are
