CADIZ, OHIO:
IVEDNESDA Y MORNING, A UG UST 14. 1844.
THE DEMOCKATIC COAHE!sSlCiAE
CONVENTION.
This body, which met at Morrislown, on last
Thursday, re-nominated the Hon. Joski-ii Mor
ris, as a candidate for Congress. The Dele
gates from each of the counties composing the
District, had a private conference, and fixed on
a person upon whom to unite. Monroe county
united on Joseph Morris, with the exception of
two delegates who wcio instructed to vote for
Mr. Walton. Belmont county united on Wm.
Kennon, jr.; and Harrison county united on
Thomas L. Jewett. Those were the only per
sons regularly before the Convention, although
votes were cast on the several ballotings for
various other good men and true. Nearly the
whole afternoon was spent in balloting, when it
was filially announced that the
HON. JOSEPH MORRIS,
had received a majority of all the votes ; cast,
and was declared to be duly nominated. A res
olution was then offered by the Editor of the
Sentinel, and passed unanimously, pledging the
support of each delegate to the nominee, and
recommending him to the cordial and individed
support of the Democracy of the District.
Although the delegates from each county
faithfully adhered to their men, yet not the
slightest circumstance occurred to mar for a mo
ment the harmony and deliberations of the Con
vention. The utmost good feeling was manifes
ted throughout, and the delegates separated with
the determination, to give "a long pull, a strong
pull, and a pull altogether," for the ticket.
Union is success. If the Democratic party
are true to their cherished principles, they will
carry every thing before them this fall. The
State of Ohio is Democratic to the core, be
yond all doubt and cavil, and the only question
among Democrats should be " How much of a
-majority shall we aim at? Shall it bo ten or fif
teen. thousand?71' This Congressional District
will do its part. From tho spirit manifested by
the Monroe county delegates,' wo havo not a
doubt but that her usual large Democratic major
ity will be greatly increased. Belmont county
ja as true as Btcel. ' Federal whiggery is decrea
sing there every year. Harrison county will do
Jier duty, and will give the coons the best skin
ning they hays received since the days of Gen.
Jackaon, -
Nominations. In the Columbus Congression
al District A. P, Stone, Esq., has been nomina
ted by the democracy, to fill the vacancy occa
sioned by the death of the Hon. IlemanA.Moore,
and Hon. C. J. McNciTy. at prce 3nt Clerk of tho
House of Representatives, has been nominated
for the 29th Congress. . .
In Hamilton county, the Democracy have nom
Jnated James J. Fakan, late speaker of the Sen
ate, as a candidate for Congress. .
O-Tbe whig papers (says the Globe) are kept
pretty busy now, in accounting for tho changes
to democracy. It is crying over spilt milk, But
our camp isnoarly full, and wo will soon bo done
faking in, Thin must console them.
ELECTIONS.
NORTH CAROLINA. j
An election was held on tho 1st instant. A
Governor and members of the legislature cho-j
sen, but not members of Congress, whose elec
tion takes place in 1843. Michael Hoke, of
Lincoln, is tho Democratic candidate for Gover
nor William A. Graham, of Orange, tho fed-
ral candidate. In 1842, Morchead, fed. was
chosen Governor by 4,592 majority, and in 1810
the State went for Harrison by 12,591. The
same year there was a federal majority of 0 in
tho Senate, and 30 in the House. We have
heard from about four-fifths of the State, and in
those counties the Democracy have gained
1,030 since 1812, and the whig majority is only
195! Clay cannot, by any possibility, get the
vole of North Carolina.
KENTUCKY.
Annual election held on Monday, August 5th.
A Governor is to be chosen, who holds his office
four years. Tho Democrats are running Col.
William O. Butler, the federalists Judge Wil
liam Owsley, both ex-members of Congress
Congressmen are not chosen till 1845. In 1840
Kentucky gave a federal majority for President
of 25,440. The Senate last year was composed
of Dem. 11, Fed 23 the House of, Dem. 37,
Fed. 62. Kentucky votes three days. We have
nothing definite from the Slate as yet. The
vole for Governor will unquestionably be close,
but it is probable that the whigs will elect their
Governor and a majority in the Legislature.
This was the banner Slate in 1840, and it would
seem like hoping against hope, for the Democra
cy to succeed there. However, the coon will
be pretty well skinned there.
ALABAMA.
Annual election, August 5, for members of!
the Legislature. Governor not chosen this year.
A member of the present Congress is to be cho
sen in the 3d district, in place of Dixon II. Lew
is, now a member of the United States Senate
by appointment of the Governor. The Demo
cratic candidate is Wm. L. Yancey, federal can
didate Daniel E. Wattrous. Last year the
Legislature stood Semite, Dem. 19, Fed. 14;
House, Dem. 62, Fed. 39. We have no returns
whatever from Alabama.
INDIANA.
Annual election Aug. 5. No Governor to be
chosen, nor members of Congress. The Legis
lature, including half tho Senate, is elected an
nually. Last year parties were thus divided:
Senate, Dem. 27, Fed. 21 House, Dem. 55,
Fed. 45. We have only partial returns from In
diana, and those principally from the Cincinnati
Atlas, a hot federal paper but the Atlas ap
peals to doubt tho correctness of its own ac
count! We have gained two members of the
Legislature in Dearborn county, but the whigs
seem to have gained in several others. We
hope to be able to give our readers full returns
next week.
ILLINOIS.
Election, Aug. 5, for seven members of Con
gress, and members of the Legislature, including
half the Senate. The Legislature is chosen bi
ennially. No Governor to be elected this year.
Thomas Ford Dem. was elected in 1842, by
8,316 majority. Tho last legislature stood
Senate, Dem. 32, Fed. 14 House, Dem. 84,
-Fed. 37. The present delegation to Congress,
elected a year ago, comprises 6 Dem., 1 Fed.
That election would have regularly taken place
in 1842, but was postponed, to await the new
apportionment under the census of 1840. We
have no returns,
MISSOURI.
Election Aug. 5, for Governor, live members
of Congress, nud members of the Legislature.
Members of Congress are chosen by general
ticket. The Feds havo nominated neither Gov
ernor, nor members of Congress, but have united
upon irregular Democrats, known by the name
of " softo,1' in contradistinction to the regular
Benton Democrats, known as the "hards.'''1
John C. Edvard3 is the regular candidate for
Governor, and Judge Allen, tho irregular. Re
sult doubtful.
Frankfort Springs.
We mado a short visit to these delightful
springs, a few days since and were highly pleased
indeed. They are situated in Washington Co.
Pa., ubout four miles north-west of Florence, and
are owned by Mr. McGinnis, who keeps a public
house on tho premises for the entertainment of
visitors. The situation of the springs is beauti
ful and romantic; and tho water, which is said by
eminent physicians and chemists, to possess med
icinal qualities, gushes out of the rock in several
places in large streams. There were about fif
ty visitors at the springs, when we were over, who
were principally from Pittsburgh, which is only
about 25 miles distant. We understand that Mr.
McGinnia contemplates erecting a largo hotel
soon at the springs capable of accommodating as
many visitors as may desire tospend the Summor
season in a cool and healthy retreat.
Louisiana.
When the whig papers can no longer influence
the Kentucky, Indiana and North Carolina elec
tions, by giving garbled and false returns from
Louisiana, we hope they will now have the can
dor to toll thoir readers the truth in regard to the
election in that state. The whig who is elected
to Congress from Louisiana is a warm friend to
annexation of Texas, and the whig papers at the
North are oxultingat his election!
. A discission. ;
There will be a Mooting of both Democrats
and Whigs at the town of New Rumley, on Wed
nesday, the 28th instant; when the great politi
cal questions which divide the two parties will
bo discussed. , Tho public are Invited to attend.

CHIVALRY.
Some foolish historian bath said, thai ''die age
of chivalry has gono by." It is a sad mistake.
Chivalrous spirits have lived in every age since
creation's dawn,"and will live until "heaven's
last thunder shakes the world." During the elev
enth century of the Christian era, chivalry had
spread itself all over Europe. Every person,
from the King on his throne to his poorest vil
lein had the spiritof chivalry infused into his
nerves. These chivalrous persons called them
selves Knights, and were clad in a suit of mail,
so that the arrows and javelins of their adversa
ries could not penetrate them. These Knights
went to the battle field, not because their own
castle had been invaded or their demesne spoli
ated, but each one had a. particular lady for
whom ho fought, although, in fact the fair one
had never been wronged in tho slightest man
ner. Who has not read an account of the romantic
wars of the Crusaders? Those wars were plan
ned, not because the Infidel Saladins had mal
treated the Christians of Palestine, but merely
that bold Knights might return to their " ladye
loves," and receive from their fair hands tho vic
tor's wreath. Tho first Kinar Richard of En
gland, generally known as "Richard Ca;ur de
Lion," and Philip King of France, distinguished
themselves on the sunny plains of Syria, and be
sides being rewarded by the smiles of the fair
ones of England and France, had their names
recorded on the brightest pages of history, for
thoir Knightly valor. Sir Walter Scott, in
Ivanhoe, and several others of his delightful
novels, has given graphic and gorgeous descrip
tions of chivalry, Knight errantry, and tourna
ments; and a countryman of our own, N. P. Wil
lis, in his "Pcncillings by the Way," has also
described the modern tournaments of Spain,
France and Italy, in the felicitous and graceful
style for which he is celebrated.
At one time chivalry was so prevalent in
Spain, that it was a common remark that every
other man you met was a Knight! The exis
tence of this foolish spirit among the Spaniards,
was the only motive which induced the celebra
ted Cervantes to write that inimitable work of
fiction, " Don Quixote," which is decidedly the
best burlesque on Knight-errantry (hat was ever
written, aud it had the effect of bringing it into
contempt and ridicule.
As we said at the beginning of this article,
the ago of chivalry has not gone by, Knight
errantry of course still exists. Here, in Cadiz,
a few days ago, we had a magnificent display of
chivalry, sufficient, certainly, to entitle the bold
Knights who participated in it, to a place on the
broadest page of American history! Haifa do
zen young whig Knights were each to have the
distinguished honor of assassinating the Editor
of the Sentinel! Like the Knights of old, they
bowed each before his ladye love, and swore they
would fight for and defend them to the last, and
never lay down their arms, until 1hey would be
crimsoned by our blood! " Fidus ct audax"
was inscribed upon their shields! Their swords
were of the truest steel, their bludgeons of the
strongest ash! They marched forth to battle!
Shades of Don Quixote, but they evinced bra
very! Their boldest strokes camo from the
mouth, their deadliest weapons proved bags of
wind! Sic transit gloria chivalry!
"The Unkiiidcst CM f All."
The imperial council has met, the edict has
gone forth! The federal whig aristocracy of
Cadiz have unanimously resolved to cut the ac
quaintance of the Editor of the Sentinel, and
exclude him from society!!! This is too bad,
positively! We shall never suivive it! We
could submit to almost any other wrong, without
a murmur. Half a dozen of their men might
have beat out our brains--the whig merchants
en masse, might withdraw their palronnga the
whig ladies might carry out their modest but un
mentionable threats and tho whole party, male
and female, might make us the subject of songs
in their private circles and in their Club Room
and we would have remained as cool and
undisturbed as a Stoic. But to be excluded
from society (.') is enough to drive a man to mad
ness. Oil, me miscrum! The whig aristocracy
of Cadiz! Bah!! The whig aristocracy of Ca
diz! Puke!! Tho whig aristocracy ot Cadiz!
Boy, bring me a glass of water!! The whig a
ristocracy of Cadiz! Brass rings and ginger
bread!! The whig aristocracy of Cadiz! An
ounce of civit, good apothecary!!
DELE' DA EST CAIMTIAOO.
" Carthage must be destroyed," was tho oft-
repeated declaration of the Roman Cato. The
Sentinel must bo destroyed and go down, say
the whigs of Cadiz. And to carry out their de
claration, most of tho whig merchants withdraw
their support from the papor, and get their cow
ardly, sneaking understrappers, to attack and in
sult us on the street. We believe there are still
Democrats enough in Harrison county to sup
port tho Sentinel, without the assistance of our
federal whig population; and we confidently pre
dict that for every whig merchant who withdraws
his support from the paper, ten honest, whole
souled Democrats will take his place. '
SHEEP!
In coming from the Morristown Convention,
the other day, we met some Democratic friends,
who informed us that they wore out purchasing
sheep. We advised them to come to Cadiz, and
thoy would bo sure to find a choice lot, among
the whig party, particularly the chivalrous whig
Knights who undertook to flog the Editor of the
Sentinel. . Our friends seemed to bo of opinion
that the whig sheep in town were nearer akin to
a certain animal with long ears!
.. . SOLE LEATHER.
What amount of sole leather did Mr. Brotlier
son and Mr. Stewart, (two whig merchants who
are trying to break down tho Sentinol,) wear out
in running ove town to borrow our last paper, to
ee what we had to soy about them? W only
ask for information J . '
MORE WITHDRAWALS!
Since our last publication, three more whigs
hare discontinued the Sentinel.
JAMES W. BEEBE has ordered his paper
and advertisements to be stopped. Mr. Beebe,
we suppose, like Mr. Stewart and Mr. Brother-
son, thinks that ho can get along well enough
without the custom of Democrats, and wishes to
introduce political differences into business ope
rations. Wo admire his 6punk.
LITTLETON HILL, a whig butcher, has or-
dcred the carrier to leave no more Sentinels at
his house. Very well, Mr. Hill. We have pat
ronized you on Maiket days, but shall do so no
longer, as we presume you don't want Demo
crats to purchase beef from you hereafter.
This is the only construction that can be put on
your conduct. Mr. Hill there is still a balance
of 76 cents due us, which you can call up at the
captain's office and settle, whenever it is conve
nient. JOHN WARD, whig constable, has also stop
ped his paper. Wo are glad of it, as we will be
a gainer bj the operation. John's bump of pay
itiveness is said to be quite diminutive.
It any more whigs wish to withdraw, we are
ready to expunge their names from our books,
when required.
THE LIST.
The following is a list of the persons who
wish to break down the Sentinel, and be patro
nized by none but whigs:
P. R. K. BROTHCRSON, whig merchant,
JAMES STEWART, do do
JAMES W. BEFJBE, . ' do do
M. F. MALLERNEE, whig tavern keeper,
LITTLETON HILL, whig butcher,
JOHN WARD, whig constable.
SCENE IN A WHIG STORE.
Behind the counter is a little palavering Yankee,
who is also the whig leader in town. Enter a
Democratic larmer, an old customer, who had
dealt to the amount of two hundred dollars
with Mr. Palaver, the present year.
Mr. Palaver Oh, I am so glad to see vou
my dear sir, how do yon do, and how is your
family? My dear sir, won't you smoke a cigar?
Wiiat can 1 sell you to-day t
Farmer Please look at my account, Mr. Pa
laver, I wish to know how much I am indebted to
you.
Palaver- -My dear sir, it is only a trifle, not
worth mentioning.
Farmer Very well, I only wished to know.
Although I am a Democrat and you a whig, I
have dealt heretofore at your store exclusively,
but I understand this morning that you and
some other whigs in town were trying to break
down the Sentinel, and introduce party politics
into business operations. I can stand any thing
but that. I can deal with you no longer, anil
for the future I shall purchase my goods fuithcr
down street. Exit farmer.
Mr. Palaver looked like he had como to his
senses, for once in his life!
O-The Democratic parly are opposed to ev
ery species of special legislation, which is inten
ded to protect and enrich the wealthy few, and
oppress and imperish tho toiling millions. They
believe that neither the National or Slate Legis
latures should pass laws granting exclusive priv
ileges to one class of men which aro denied to
another.
. The federal parly, on the contrary, have ever
been the avowed advocates of special legislation.
They want great banking corporations and high
tariff laws, which will furnish capital to manufac
turers, and enable them to reap profits of from 15
to 25 per cent.
THE POLK.-OIITS.
The Baltimore Republican has published the
names of 3900 persons who have forsaken the
whig ranks, and have deternrned to support Polk
and Dallas. And tho cry is still, they come!

THE CONSPIRACY.
- Read tho following communication from an !
n H niAinl vilinia tvpll known in this rnmitv.'
. ' " . '
The conspiracy of the whig-merchants to crush
the Sentinel operates admirably!
For the Cadiz Sentinel.
Ms. IIahpkr I see by your last paper that
another attempt has been made, by tho decent
coons of Cadiz, to break down the Cadiz Sen
tinel, because it dares to expose their miscon
duct because it has the boldness to tell the
truth. Let them go on. All their puny ef
forts to break down your paper will but raiso it.
Regard not their patronage. 1 he Democrats ot
Harrison county are numerous enough and able
enough to sustain' it and they will do it. De
pend upon tins, lou can hardly imagine live
disgust which the Democrats of mv neighbor
hood feel at the combination of Brothcrson,
Mallernec, &c, to injure you and your alia and
fearless paper. Having grown and fattened up
on the patronage and custom of the Democrats,
Mr. Brothcrson and his colleagues now say by
their conduct, that they do not care forthem any
longer let the locos go to the deuce we can
do without them, or their custom. Well, bo it
so. 1 believe there is one or two Democratic
stores in Cadiz, at which goods can be purcha
sed as cheap, and on as good terms as they can
be had at whig stores, and if whig storekeepers
and tavern keepers are getting so much above
themselves, as to declare independence of the
Democrats in the way of patronage and trade,
there is one consolation left, it is a two-handed
game.
Tho attempt made, four or five years ago, by
some of these same coons, to break down or in
jure the Sentinel, only reacted in its favor. So
it will be again. Numerous Democrats, who
are not at present subscribers, when they are
made acquainted with the conspiracy of he
whig decency of Cad'z to break down the Sen
tinel, and brow-beat and intimidate you from do
ingyour duly, will become subscribers, aud use
their influence to get others to do the same.
It is not you they hale they despise the light
that blazes through the medium of your paper
upon the bad character of Henry (day show
ing his blood-thirstiness, his perjury, his profani
ty, his debauchcrv and his hypocrisy! It is the
paper they hate it is not you. Go on, then, as
you have been doing, and give these tedeial
coons a full view of the naked deformity of their
idol Henry Clay.

P. S. Put me down as a subscriber for three
copies of your valuable paper which will make
up for the loss of Mallernec, Brothevson and
Stewart. R. A.
GERMAN TOWNSHIP.
For the Cadix Sentinel.
Nisw Jeffehsok, O., August 2d, 1811.
The Democratic Republican Association of
German township, met and adopted the follow
ing resolutions; viz:
Resolved, That we deem it high time for ev
ery true Democrat to bestir himself, and to tuke
a decided stand in favor of all the Democratic
nominees that are now made, or that may be
made hereafter, for any office whether National
or Stale.
Resolved, That desirous as it may be to dwell
at peace with our whig neighbors, and sorrowing
fur the occasions that impel us to array ourselves
in opposition to them, yet the calumniating of
our candidates lor oihees the arrogant assump
tions made the false issues attempted to be
joined, and the falsehoods put forth by them,
admonish us of the necessity ot taking a decided
and defensive ground.
Resolved, That we believe the true moi'ter at
issue, at present, is a National Bunk, a Protec
tive Tariff, the Distribution of the proceeds ofl
the Public Lands, and the Assumption by the
General Government of the Debts of the States.
That against all of these the Democrats array
themselves, while the whigs are for tliein; aad
they attempt to drag forward, as of the greatest
importance, the Annexation of Texas; which is
only a plan to divert the attention from the true
questions at issue: for, bo it remembered, that
Henry Clay said that " a National Bank is of
superior importance;'''' and again, very recently,
reiterated that "a National Bank is paramount,
to all other questions."
Resolved, That we are opposed to a National
Bank, on the ground that it is not enumerated in
the powers of Congress, nor in the Constitution,
to create one or is it necessary to carry on tho
Government and thereby deduciblo by fair in
ference or construction.
Resolved,, That in the plan to Distribute the
proceeds of the sales of the Public Lands a
mong the Slates, we see an attempt made to
make the General Government a tax-gatherer for
the States, and a bribe ottered to the States to
allow the General Government to exercise lati
tudinous power.
Resolved, That we hold the Assumption of
the State Debts by the General Government, un
constitutional, unjust, aud iniquitous in the ex
treme. Resolved, That we are in favor of a Tariff to
an amount corresponding precisely to the wants
of the General Government, administered econ
omically, in lime of peace, and this wo hold will
afford all the protection in any wise called for
by the good of all.
Resolved, That we are in favor of the Annexa
tion of Texas to the Union, on a plan in cb a me
ter similar to that proposed by Thomas H. Ben
ton; and we believe to annex it is a Legislative
act, and not an Executive one. But we go Dem
ocratic measures wah or without lexas.
Resolved, That it is with feelings of indigna
tion, that we call to mind the imprisonment of
Thomas W. Dorr; believing it to bo a thrust at
the vitals of the Democracy of our country.
Resolved, That we will uso our best exer
tions, in a lawful way, to promote the election of
all regularly nominated Democrats to the offices
for w hich nominated.
Resolved, That the proceedings of this meet
ing be sicrncd by the President and Secretary,
and published in the Cadiz Sentinel.

CONSUMPTION ARRESTED. ' '"
Another cure performed by Dr. Duncan's Expectorant
Remedy. Mr. Phineas Tonilinson near Adamsville,
Muskingum county, certifies that his eon, aged 1 6 years
was seriously afflicted with disease of the Lungs for 3 or
4 years. His symptoms were slight cough, hectic fever
and night sweats, attended with a general debiliated
state of the system, Bhuwing all symptoms of "going in
to a decline." Having used various medicines, but to
no effect, and as a last resort was determined to test the
virtnes of Dr. Duncan't Kxpcctoront remedy, which he
procured of the agent in Zanesville, and am happy to
state to the public, that this medicine actually did re
move all dicease from his lungs, nnd finally restored him
to perfect health. It notbcingupwuidao?9 months and
his Lungs appear to be perfectly healthy. Principal
office, 19 North Sth St., Philadelphia.
A fresh supply received by the agent at Cadiz.
Always ask for lr. Duncan's Expectorant Remedy
and be sure you get it.

WE ARE NOT IN THE II A BIT of culoging any
thins in the form of "Patent Medicine," for we have
Jong been of the opinion that nothing but a worthless
nostrum needs the imposing name of "Patent" to bring
it into notice. Hence our hostility hasbeen strong and
uncompromising against every thing in the line. But
at length our prejudices have been (breed to yield to th
immense amount of testimony in favor of "Dr. VVistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry." Judging from what we have
seen and heard of its effects, we pronounce it the most
fortunate combination of medical ngentsever discovered
for the cure or Consumption; and indeed, it appears to
be perfectly master of ali pulmonary complaints. We
advise the public to make an immediate and fair trial
of it, and they will then praise it move warmly than we
have done. See advertisement.
