to believy that it had secured the aid of one of

Your isva is not simply that of Kansas. It is
no! whether the people or a Territory shall be
permitted to decide their own offaira in their
own way. It is a higher iasue, if anything can
be higher than thut ; it ia the issue whether the
representatives of tho people whether your
representatives shall be the slaves of the Presi
dent of the United States. That is the issue
wilh which you ore concerned in the present
contest. As to Konsus, all its associations and
all its struggles, in Congress and since that, were
gone by. Tho public judgment has pronouueed
upon it. The people have declared that the
Administration, iu opposing the popular voice
in that Territory, ami in deliberately violating
its solemn pledges, is guilty, is convicted of a
capital crime applause, oud our misfortune is
only that it has two years to live before sentence
can be pronounced upon it, Loud applause.
It will eke out what remains of its career a Ty

South upou its own accepted platform. It will

it by then as a thing that belongs to the post
luugt'ter, as a thing interesting only to those
who recuive their monthly salaries (laughter, as
a thing in which the Democratic purty has no
interest and can have none, I come to the point
immediately interesting to you. But before I do
so let me say that when the AdmiuUtratiou as
sumes to be the Democratic parly it assumes too
much.. There aro Democrat hero I know to
whom the idea that the Administration is the

say it is our household servant ; and the idea of
this subordinate, of this tutenor, urcsseu in our

it over us os the Democratic party is it not an
absurdity? (Applause. No, gentlemen, if there
hod been no oll'ice-holders in Pennsylvania, if
there had been no public patronage enlisted in
that great cauvatson the 12i.n of October, w hen
we defeated the I.ecomplomtes on a oistiuc tissue

plousej done by tho Democratic party, ouicit
by patriotic Americans ond Republicans I say
f there had been no otlice-holders nor patronage
in that State, there bad not been 10,000 votes
cast for the Administration policy. (Cheers.)
Your isaue, however, is one which rises higher,
as I have said, thau these past insues and this
entinal Administration. It is an uue whether
your representative should go to Washington as
the slave of the t'restdeiit, or as your nonoreu
ueleuate and representative. (Cheers I And I may
say, gentlemen, here to night, thai am proud
to wnness rue union oi nanus ana oi neurts in

patronage, what a peculiar position tl.e present
head of tbe Government hiiriiulf occupies. He
is now dispensing patronage to the urnount of
100,000,0()U pernnnutn. How he has dispensed
of it you all know. If you will refer to the
record cf Congregiii 1831, you will find that
the expenses o'l the Federal Government amount
ed toubout 30.000,000 per annum. The lead
ers of the Democratic party then in the Senate
of the United States became ulurmed at the
manner in which this patronage wus bestowed
and distributed, anil Col. Bnton rose in his
place and culled for the uppoiiitmeut of a Coin

the money of the Federal Government was be
stowed for political purposes. Upon that Com

Van Buren of New York, Philemon Dickerson of

long possession of power, into a monster. Great
merriment. In tho sacred book, which contains les
sons of wisdom for the politician, us well a for the
Christian, wo find a happy illustration of the corrupt
lug intiuonee of power upon tho human heart. When
lltuaol came to cen.iult Kiiiha, whether his mastar.the
Kiug of Syria, would recover from a diingerous ill
ness, the prophet, looking throityh tho vista of futuri
ty, saw the crime of which the messenger, who stood
befroe hliu wouU -l0 gnjty, and he wept, lluzaul
asked: Why weepeth my lord?' Tha prophet then
re':2;;n-,i o him the murders and the eruultiu
which he should ba guilty toward the Children of Is
rael, Huzuel, ia the spirit of virtuous indignutioh,ri-
pliod, '1 thy servant u dog, that he should do

The Lord hut:i sliown ma that thou shuit be hling
Svria.' Konuwed laughtvr.J tho mun afterward
became king by the murder of hi muster, and
guilty of enormities, the bare recital oj w hich would
make ua shudder." Laughter.)
I trust that the application is as clour to you
it was to him. Laughter and applause.

hUtory of tlio human rare proves tht liberty cau

narrowly watched." Laughter.
llut, gentlemen, without reudinij to you
long extract, I will conclude with a paragraph,
which has a direct application :
" In mv humble judgment, the present Administra
tion could not have proceeded single year, with
least hop ot re-election, but tor their patronage. I

This eelohrated preparation. like the Bitters, may
be confidentially relied oa. It ie designed for a olaaa
of disease mure general and more fatal than any other
ta which the people of thia country rn iibjcct
those spri listing from a " slight cold." That eminent
authowty, ur. lien, says: " i win not say tnat ceiae
are to otir inbabitantti what tha Plague and Yellow
Fever are to those of other countries; but I tin aver
confidently tbat they usher In disease of greuter eom
plicitv and mortality thaM these latter.'
A further proof of the terrible fatality of diseases
resulting from a " common cold'' may be seen by it
glance at the following statistics, taken frem the rea
orda of the Board ef Health of Philadelphia, confess-
Sdly one of the most healthy localities iu the Union:
133 J. Total deaths in Philadelphia, 10,101

Died of Consumption, 1,695
" " all other dlseasea 8,fM

From these figures It will be seen that nearly one
fourth ef the total deaths in the country are eaused tsy
consumption, to say nothing of the numerous other
diseases springing from " alight colda."
Do not trifle with your health; but if sufTorlng from
a slight cough, or cold on the lungs, buy a bottle of
HOOFLAND'S BALSAMIC COBD1 AL.andyou may
safely count on a cure. Thousands have done so, and
