orful federal leaders as 'Webster, Adams, Clay, sml a host of other able and influential men, •nhom again and again he has met and repelled in their concerted attempts upon the consti tution, and the rights of the States? Strike out of the Democratic vocabulary Free Trade , and Independent Treasury, and the VETO POWER, as it stands; —Let them aban don their opposition to Distribution, and the attacks of the abolitionists upon our domestic institutions; let them give up their watch words of Economy, Retrenchment, No Debt, and A Strict Adherence to the Constitution; and what would the Democratic party of Geor gia be? Nothing but an unprincipled combi nation of men for public plunder, whose only object would be victory for the sake ol the spoils. To whom among us all arc we half so much indebted, as to Mr. Calhoun, for the maintenance, advocacy, and establishment of these principles r When others would come but half way to the mark, he was always tip to it. The history of his public life for the last ten years is nothing but the “philosophy teaching by example” of these great questions, which he has so elaborated and interwoven into the Democratic faith as to make them one and in separable. Who, more than he, lias contri buted to one party a local habitation and a name, and principles, which like a beacon, in all time to come, will distinguish us as demo crats and patriots? Run your eye back to the close of Gen. Jackson’s administration, and the commencement of Mr. Van Buren’s. See how a United States Bank, and the Pet Bank system, a judicious tariff, incidental protection, and free trade, and uncertainties and doubts a.- to the power of Congress to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia were all afloat in a sea of shifting politics —rari nantes in gurgite rasto —with no power in the helmsman to moor his veering craft, or to steer her in safety through the dangers and difficulties of Scylla & Charybdis. The vessel of State was driving head-long with a spanking breeze, which stif fened to a gale, upon the rock on which the Pet Bairks had just foundered; the officers had piped their last whistle, and the gallant patri otic crew, W6rn-out by their constant efforts and evolutions, were lying on their oars, gaz ing in despair, at vacancy. At that critical moment a flag was run up on whose broad folds were iiiscftbcd an Independent Treasury. A pilot springs on board; the deck is cleared — the old, worn-out, tattered flags that had, in their, day, flaunted a United States Bank—the State Banks—a judicious tariff, and incidental protection, were committed to the deep; all “doubts” and “uncertainties” were dispelled; and that same pilot, standing at the helm with his Eagle eye and Lion heart, firm and concen trated in the loudest of the storm, with the Constitution for his chart, braved all perils of the sea, and brought the gallant barque, with her devoted democratic crew in honor and safety to her port. And there at her mast head were flying, and are yet flying, Free Trade; Low Duties; No Dkist; Seperation from Banks; Economy; Retrenchment; and a Strict Adherence to tue Constitution! “Conic read me my riddle ! come hearken my tale,” “ And tell me the craft of bold Allen-a-dale.” A few short years have elapsed;—the party thus served and saved, at its uttermost need, is now in the full fruition of its victorious principals, but the man who was then wel comed as its trusted pilot and “able champion” in its time of greatest peril and difficulty, is now to be pronounced “out of the line of fire,” and not a member of the Democratic party ! I could not have made such a declaration.— Truth, honor, gratitude forbade it; consisten cy, actual, literal consistency would have sealed my lips, and silenced the aspersion. If Mr. Calhoun is not a member of the Demo cratic party, who is ? But, my dear sir, I fear I tire you by the sength of this letter. Pardon me for the intru sion, and rest assured that while I am confident I could not have used the words ascribed to me, I have not the slightest doubt but that your error was wholly unintentional, and perhaps attributable to some unfortunate defect in my mode of expression.

Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry It is not often that we find amongst the Medical Faculty sufficient candor to accord any merit whatever to “Patent Medicines” as it conflicts , with their interest so to do—but below we give an exception; OPINION OF A REGULAR PHYSICIAN. Exeter, Me., Sept. 30, 18-15. This certifies that I have recommended the use of Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry for diseases of the lungs, for two years past, and many bottles, to my knowledge have been used by my patients, all with beneficial results. In two cases where it was thought confirmed consumption had taken place, the Wild Cherry effected a cure. E. BOYDEN, Physician at Exeter Corner. None genuine unless signed I. BUTTS ,on the wrapper.

Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Heart burn, Gastritis or Inflammation of the Stomach, all proceed from the same cause, being an unhealthy secretion of gastric juice and bile. The salivary glands no longer send forth a healthy flow, and the Liver issues acrid bile. Then follows acidity of the stomach, eructation of wind, distress of eating, op pression of the prccordia, headache and nausea, tremulous sensations, and a variety of other pecu liar feelings known only to the sufferer. For these and kindred diseases a new remedy has dawned upon the world, having for it object the relief of suf fering humanity. SANDS’ SARSAPARILLA, an entirely vegetable composition, is in its opera tion peculiar, entering into the circulation, thus coining in contact with the germ or cause of dis ease, and displacing unhealthy secretions by ex tending its influence to every part of the body, and causing a general reaction, when health succeeds debility and disease.
