HON. H. M. WATTEBSON.
This gentleman will address his fellow-citizens
tt CARTHAGE, in Smith county, on MONDAY,
the 11th of August; end
At LAFAYETTE, m Macon county, on
WEDNESDAY, tho 13th of August.
QCl" Of all the violent and uncompromising as
sailants of Mr. Clat, none ever equaled the pres.
ent editor of the Banner. He not only charged
him with "bargian, intrigue and corruption," but
actually branded him with tho crime of TELA'
SON against his own country.
He not only charged him with being engaged,
"np to tho hub," In tho BURR CONSPIRACY,
but with having SYMPATHIZED WITH THE
NTJLLIFIERS of South Carolina.
Not satisfied with this, he denounced Mr. Clat
at the GREATEST DEMAGOGUE AND MOST
UNPRINCIPLED POLITICIAN that ever exist
ed in any age or country, without exception.
He charged him, furthermore, with having PUR
CHASED his own elevation at the sacrifice of the
wishes and interests of his constituents.
He depicted the AWFUL FATE AND DOWN.
FALL of Mr. Clat, and held it up 83 a TERRI
BLE BEACON to the rising and future politicians
of our country.
Thi3 is not one-hundredth part of what he did
and said.
Mr. Clat was burned or cowhidea m effigy. It
has nlwayB been the understanding of our oldest
citizens, that the editor of the Banner was a ring.
leader in the matter. Ha denies having participa
ted in burning it. But he has not denied, that we
have eesn, Otathe took part in COWHIDING it,
or stood by and witnessed, approvingly, whatever
indignity was offered to. it. The editor ot the
Banner knows all about this effigy business. He
will not deny.it. Why, then, doe3 he not give the
facts, as they occurred, to the public? As we un
derstand it, he was editing a Jackson paper here
at the time, and never uttered one word cf disappro
bation against what had been done.
And yet, to-day, this man is foremost in the
ranks of Mr. Buchanan's assailants upon the charge
. of having slandered Mr. Clay! Was there ever
any thing bo ridiculous and contemptible? Plum-init-sound
cannot measure the low degree to which
such men must sink in publio estimation.
And for what is the purpose of this detraction 1
That Miixakd Fillmore AND ANDREW J. DON
ELSON may be elevated to the Presidency. An
drew J". Donelson, whom, of all others, except the
editor cf the Banner himself, has rung the changes
loudest and longest on this old charge against Mr.
Clay. Andrew J. Donelson, who never express
ed any other opinion, than that ho believed Mr.
Clat guilty. Andbiw J. Donelson, who not only
assailed Mr. Clat, but recently convicted, aye,
CONVICTED, by the most indubitable testimony,
Millard Fillmore of the deepest dye of Aboli
tionism of refusing to execute the Fugitive Slave
aw of having bargained and intrigued with Se
ward and Greely to re-instate himself in the confi
dence of his old Abolition adherents of having
abandoned his Executive duties and gone upon an
eleatloneerlni? tour through JNow xork ot an
officious interference in State electiont of per
mitting the Treasury to be plundered by bis cabi
net officers, through the odious Gardner claims of
having branded patriotic American citizens, upon
the high Eeas, as"pirates and robbers, and lelt them.
without the protection of law, to ba butchered by
a merciless Spanish Captam-General-of having de
graded and disgraced our government in the esti
mation of the civilized world and whose Admin
i.trstion was one Iour. sad, tedious failure and
blander.
All of this, and fifty times as much, has Andrew
J. Donelson charged upon Millard Fillmore no
longer ago thanl851-2-the greater portion of which
has naver ben, and cannot be, retracted by aiej
Donelson without convicting himself of being a
willful and deliberate slanderer.
Now what Is the attitude in which tbeee assail
nt of Mr. BtrciiANAN havo placed themselves?
That of seeking to elevate Andrew Jaceson don
elson to the Vice Presidency upon tho prejudices
ot Mr. Clat's fiiends, and of making Mr. Fillmore
President, whom Donelson thus denounced a few
years since, upon the cry of injustice on tho part
of Mr. Buchanan towards Mr. Clat upwards of a
quarter of a century ago. Such an argument must
tall of its own weakness- it stands self-exposed,
inviting tLe shame and ridiclue of all mankind.
0- The Patriot eud other Know Nothing pa
pers are congratulating ihemeelves that Judge
McLean and sveh other conservative men of the
country, are comiDg to the support of Fillmore
and Dokeleon. Will the people remember that
this same Judge McLean, whom Southern Know
Nothings call conservative, was an anxious arpirant
for the Black Republican nomination, and was the
tormidable man against Fremont before their Con
vention that ho has but recently written an abo
lition Utter, ia which he maintains that Congress
has the power, and ought to exercise it, of pro
hiliting slavery in the territories-that he is the
same man of whom Andrew J. Donelson thus
wrote in 1851 :
"We shall in a few days, we hope, be able to
find Judge McLean's opinions on the subject of
slavery. When wo are in possession of them, wo
shall endeavor to show that they are first rate
authority lor the present Whig (Fillmore) admmis
tration, and sustain tho President not only in his
view of piracy, but of slavery, the veto power,
and the delicate questions raised by the Mexican
war. Wo ehould dtapair of ever seeing the Dem
ocratic party restored to power if the great body
of the people could be persuaded to entertain the
high respect for Judge McLean's opinions which
. is lelt by the special organ ot President Fillmore,
and doubtless by some of, if not all, tho officers of
tho cabinet."
And yet, the coming in of this defeated candi
date for the Black Republican nomination to Mr.
Fillmoro's support, is given by Southern Know
Nothing papers a8 an evidence that the conten d
tism of the country is rallying to him. Lst the
people etir the inquiry, Who aro the dingerous
men to the South?

STEWART COUNTY.
We have a very interesting communication from
a friend in Stewart county, discriptive of a debate
at a barbecue at Tobacco Port, between W. M.
Quahles, Esq., and 0. Roberts, Esq. Tho speech
of Mr. tjrjARLEs 13 described as haviDg bsen over
powering in its array of facts and arguments. We
are glad to see this able champion of Democracy
bo actively ..engaged in the canvass, and we well
know how auspicious will be the result of his la
bors.
Our correspondent closes his letter as followa:
"The day was a grand jubi'ee of the Democracy,
and you may set it.down as a fixed fact that Stew
art county will make a gain for Buchanan. No
man who has any character for truth will deny."
OLD LINE WHIGS AND DONELSON.
The Maysville Eagle, of the 22 J, has a long ar
ticle on the Old Line Whig meeting at Lexington,
from which we make several interesting extracts.
It will ba Been that the Eagle has a great admira
tion for Mr. Fillmore, but cannot swallow Don
elson. Here are the extracts; thevare worth read
ing:
"The meeting at Lexington was cotton nn nn
purpose to make a Fillmore demonstration that
was a "foregone conclusion." An
rlouslv made, to Drevent this, tn ha nmmntiTr
pat down andUrisMr. James B. Clay was not
long in discovering. It required no guess-work to
uiviuo ua ucjeci in coming into the meeting. We
infer that he had been purposely slighted before
hand, and that in the house of hi3 father's friends.
He was not even invited he, the occupant of Ash
Und, and the most prominent living son of the
great leader of tho once powerful Whig party
was not cvep invited to sign the call, if we rightly
understand it, or in any way participate in tho
meeting of the Old Line Whigs of his native coun
ty and his honored father's house. If this be true,
such conduct was unworthy of the true Whigs who
were aiders in the movement, and positively un
courteous and unkind, if not insulting, on the part
of those who circulated the call."
Kr
"We will not say we regret that this meeting
declared for Fillmore. We are confident it would
have done much more good would have excer
cised a much wider influence would have de
served and have received more credit for single
hearted devotion to principle its moral effect
would have been a hundred fold more powerful
if there were no suspicious circumstances attend
ing its origin and its action, its inception and its
progeny. The Fayette Whigs do not claim, from
anything that appears to us, to have been ag
grieved by the conduct of any one representing
them abroad or at home in prior meetings, or to
have thereby been placed in a false and unworthv
position. They do not claim the right to advise
their hig menus elsewhere as to the proper course
of duty. Tbev do not affect to believe that any
necessity wa3 laid upon them to set an example
for the country. We fear they have been prompt
ed to their action by professional politicians of the
Know Nothing school. Their movement, when
the eg was laid and now that it is hatched, was
cackled over and attended by the American party;
and their organ, tho Observer, ha3 proved its
ready and anxious and eloquent- apologist and
trumpeter.'' 0
"If the public were allowed to vote directly for
President and Vice President, there are thousands
our3olf among the number who would take a
special pride in casting their suffrages for Fillmore,
and yet would be very far from selecting the
American nominee
iur iuo ice jrresiueucy.
I . 1. 1 ,
Almost the whole stock in trade at least the
available capital of the Southern Know Noth
ings, seems to be unmeasured abuse of Mr. Bu
chanan for his horrible injustice to Henry Clay
in the "bargain and corruption" matter. Their
incessant appeals to Old Line Whigs to visit him
with their vengeance, are as disgusting and un
acceptable as they are ranting and hollow-hearted
and selfish. They forget that Andrew Jackson
Donelson, as editor of the Washington Union du
ring a part ofhiB administration, was Mr. Fillmore's
most prominent if not his greatest reviler, and one
of his most illiberal and nnreasonable and unman
nerly opponents. Out upon such hypocrisy I There is
not even a show of fairness and decency about it I
Such miserable inconsistency inuat stink in the
nostrils of all honest men, and be acceptable to
none but tho rotten leaders of a misguided and en
thusiastic party. The nomination of Buchanan
has proved a " God-send" to them, as they seem
to be trying by coarse brawling about his nnpar
donable political offences, to hide their own sin
gular and shameful inconsistency. If they make
themsalves hoarse in proclaiming to patient Whigs
their duty to go for Fillmore, let them in decency
moderate their accents a little while, and unveil to
willing Fillmore Whigs the hidden beauties of
Donelson's political career, associations and sympa
thies. If Fillmore be declared by Fayette Whigs
and Josh Bell Whigs and Wat Andrews Whigs a
11 sweet morsel to be rolled under tongues" ot old
lino Whigs everywhere, will they call Donelson a
" bitter pill" while they gulp him down ! Will
not the thought of such inconsistency "choke"
honest Whig?, before they can pronounce the
names of the American nominees at the polk ?
Verily, we know many Whigs who love Fill
rnoro and desire to vote for him, but who often
think of John Tyler when they aro asked to go
for the nominee of a party which boasts that it
has risen upon the ruins of the glorious old Whig
party. We have fallen upon strange times, in
deed." THE PB03PECT3 IN INDIANA AND ILLINOIS.
Tho New York Tribune all but concedes that
Indiana and Illinois will vote for Buchanan. It is
evident that the disunion managers and wire
workers in New York have no expectation of car
rying them. As to Indiana, the Tribune says :
"We do not share the confidence with which
most friends of Fremont regard her vote. If the
earnest was single and simple, we should have no
doubt at all; but Mr. George G. Dunn, one of her
ablest members of Congress, who is accustomed to
ruin where he cannot rule, having broken down
in an attempt to bully the Anti-Nebraska members
of Congress into changing their candidate r
Speaker, has determined to do his best to carry
off votes enough from Fremont to Fillmore to givo
the electoral vote of the State to Buchanan. This
is the Bhort way of Etating the danger and sug
gesting the remedy. Mr. Dunn can do more for
Buchanan than any five men in the State who
openly support tho latter; and he will doubtle83
have accomplices. Wo trust the State will ba
saved, notwithstanding; but ten thousand votes
wasted on Fillmore will give it to Buchanan."
Of Illinois, the Tribune says :
"We strongly hope for the vote of Illinois for
Fremont, but do not esteem it certain."
05" The Jersey City telegraph, heretofore a
neutral paper, hoist3 the flag of Buchanan and
Rreckinridge, and thus announjes the fact :
"Wo hoist to-day at our mast head the white
folKS UCKet. Un it aro emblazoned the names of
statesmen who aro before the whole American peo
ple for their suffrages to preside over the destinies
of this whole nation. That James Buchanan, the
first of American statesmen, will be elected to the
most Important office in the world, no one who is
of sound mind, we think, will doubt for a moment.
But if, on the other hand, thero was the least pros
pect of defeating him and electing a sectional or
half-WBy individual in his stead, all true patriots
would despair of this Republic. ''

A SPEECH FROM GOYfA. Y.BROWN, '
We find in (ha Columbus (Mi) ifemoc-crof the
19th, a highly intereating account'bf a bsrbecue
and discussion at Barton, ia ttat State, on the pre
ceding Saturday. Among the speakers was Gov
A. V. Brown, of this State, and we copy the re

every thing we publish from this distinguished gen

tention to this sketch. We can assure the Demcc
racy of the Union that Gov. Bp.ows's whole soul
is enlisted in this canvass, and tbat hh eloquent
voice will continue to be heard wherever truth and
sound principles most need an advocate.
The Democrat notices the speech of S. M.
Meek, Esq., and says :
The Hon. A. V. BrowD, of Tennessee, one of
the most gifted and eloquent men of the South a
Nicodemus Democrat, in whom thero is "no guila"

committee for the kind invitation tihn
this occasion. He bad come over, however, (from
his plantation, a few miles off) rather to hear
others man to speak himself: As there seemed,
however, to be a general desire that he should say

flicts have been between only two parties in the
Republic first between the Republican and the
Federal parties then between thnDomonrnfin and
Whigparties, to say nothing of lesser and short
lived divisions which appeared for a while in the
country.
But now, said he, there are three parties in the
held, all with their respective champions, and each
one desperately bent upon achieving a victory.
The first one he shouldconsider was the Abolition
party, iea on oy Fremont. He gave briefly the
rise ana rapid progress of that party. Its true
name was me Abolitton parti. They called them
selves the anti-slaverv nartv thn RpnnHinan
party, and by others they were sometimes called
the "Black Republicans." He eloquently described

gress. The South had, therefore, but one choice
in the matter. She must oieet those issues now,
in this very election, or bow her Wti n-.i .nr.
render at discretion bow her head (said Gov. B)
ana surrender all claims to equality under the
institution to more than twelve hundred mil
lions ot property.
He then described the Democratic parlv. North
and South, aj the old party that had carried the
country through all its troubles, in nPArft and war.
to such an amazing height of prosperity and power
as to make us the envy and admiration of tho
world. Tnat party, ho Baid, had watched and op-
jju3cu iiic Auuuuuuisia uom me oesmuiQ and
luugui, Bgaiu;i uem at every step of their pro.
gress fought them so hard as to einr.m thorn-
selves sometimes to the charge of disunion fought
them on the Wilmot proviso fought them on ilia
Compromise measures fought them on theKansas,
Nebraska bill fought and disputed with them
every inch of ground. So thev are fie tin them
in this contest They have lately met in conven
tion, ana every man of them resolved to fight
thorn still the Democrats from Maine to Florida
from California on tho Pacific from every State
and district of this broad land of liberty, resolved
to fight them still. To fight them on the Constitu
tion and for Hie Constitution. He then described
the entire unanimity and firm resolution of the
party at Cincinnati to fight this battle against the
Abolitionists and all their allies whilst life should
have one throb and the Constitution one friend on
earth 1
But, he said, there was yet a third party in the
country, tho Know Nothing party, of which he
desired to speak, unolin anger but in great sorrow."
The Know Nothing partv he miwt he rmpd
for not calling them the American party, for they

iuu xvuw Aiuming party now lives m the hlteen
States of the South. Those who onco belonged
to it in the Northern States have nearly all joined
with ths Abolitionists. At the first Philadelphia
Convention, twelve whole States retired in a body.
It was now, he said, notorious that the great body
of its strength lies in the South, and yet strange
to tell stranger still to believe that Know Noth
ingism will, though located in the South, make no
fight against the Abolitionists in the present elec
tion. Tne Abolitionists are marching down upon
mem, as wen as upon us tncy seek to destroy
their property as well as ours they seek to die-
honor them by taking away their riehts of everv
sort under the Constitution, as much a3 to dishonor
us and yet they will make no fight against them I
Gov. B. said, there were doubtless mnnv lum
bers of the Know-Nothing party now present who
would ask and ought to ask, for the proof of a
proposition bo startling and so suicidal. Tin said
that he would to God, that there was no proof to
sustain the proposition. But ho was here to offer
the proof, and when ho had doneso to implore the
menof that p rty, or those who sympathize with

they were likely to bring on themselves, tfcoir fni.,.
ilies and kindred, by persisting any longer in this
course. Sirs, has not Koow-Nothmgism resolved
officially, to make no fight for the South, on the
Slavery iesues? Look to the great Philadelphia
Council and Convention held in February last
The Council was called to overhaul and change the
platform on the Slavery question. Tho Conven
tion was called to nominate a candidate for Presi
dent Well, did they change the platform on the
Slavery question ? Tho Northern Kno w-Notbings
said, if you do not give up the 12th Section, wo
will leave you and go home and join tho Black
Republicans. The Southern Know-Nothings at
first said, if you do repeal that Section, then, we
will withdraw and go home and join the Demo
crats! Such was the issue well, what was the
result? They did repeal the 12th section, and the
whole South met in caucus and resolved to go
home. But did they go home? No I Tho North
having gained the Platform, then turned round and
knowing, that the South was anxious about the
man, who was to Btand on it, Bent after them to
come back come back and they migbt have the
man, if that was what they so much desired. So
the farce was ended the North took tho platform
of principles by which the nominee was bound to
be guided whilst the South was put off with the
mere man!- the North got the soul and spirit
whilst the South was put off with the mere form
and person. But (asked Gov. B.,) can a President
ignore the Platform, which was built for him and
upon which he has voluntarily placed himself?
ao I he cannot he ought not-he dare not, without
incurring personal and political dishonor. It' the
platform says the Fugitive Slave law must berepealed,
that the Missouri Compromise must be restored,
aud that no more Slave territory and no more
Slave States shall ever bo admitted into the Union
how could Millard Fillmore dare to say and to
actio the contrary? The thing is impossible, the
stream cannot rise higher than the fountain. The
candidate can never violate his pledge of honor, to
carry out tho avowed principles of his party. Right
here, fiaid Gov. B., he would reply to the argument
that Millard Fillmore had been once tried and found,
as his friends alledge, faithful to the country. Ayel
but he wbb then tried as a Whig, acting under the
responsibility of that great party. But what is he
now ? He has changed from being a Whig and has
let himself down to the dark places of Know
Nothingism. He has contracted new and strange
obligations by his numerous oatlis, and now recent
ly by his solemn pledge of honor, "to be subject
and obedient to the decisions of a majority of the
Councils in all matters political. "I am no longer
Millard Fillmore, with the public flag of Clay, Web
ster and Berrien waving over me, to indicate my
oourse of policy but I am Millard Fillmore, with
my dark lantern, wending my way through some
lone alley, in order to receive my orders as to what
I shall do from the hands of a midnight junto."
01 what a fall was this my countrymen I
I go not now, said Gov. Brown, into the ques
tion whether Mr. Fillmore did, or did not make a
good President of the United States all I mean
to do to-day, is to impress upon your minds tin
great fact that Mr. Fillmore does not now stand
bound as a Whig to act as a Whig but hs is
now standing before his country as an oath-bound

I return now (jaid Gov. Brown) to my array ot
proofs, that Know Nothingism doss not mean to
fight against the Abolitionists for the rights of tha
South, it said so sna voted so in tne nrst xeu
nesaeo platform in June, 1855, when the Tennes-
iea Know Nothings ignored the agitation of the
slavery question. It said so when the Philadelphia
Council of Convention cf February passed the 8th
section, striking down the great doctrine of States
Rights, that each state should decide tor itseit,
who should ana wnosnouio not noid omce, in tne
States. That section is downright murder of all
State sovereignty I It enables a majority in Con
gress whenever they may please, to impose an abo
lition test on every man who owns a slave in the
South, that he shall not vote in any fctite or fed
eral election that he is not fit to vote that he U
not morally worthy of the privilege of voting and
therefore shall not vote, L wish that every man
in the Southern States would look at the danger

for the Compromise, can consistenly go against
the repeal ot the Missouri Compromise. Besides,
let me ask (said Gov. B ) how could tho Demo
cratic party, and a portion of the Whig party, have
failed to go for Mr. Dixon's proposition? The
anti-slavery or abolition party, now so loul in
complaints, never would sustain the Missouri Com
promise they were always and on every occasion
against it. When Texas was admitted, they were
opposed to it When the Wilmot proviso was
was offered, they were opposed to that compromise
Then whea the opposite party would not respect
it as a compromise but waa against it at every turn,
what could Democrats and a portion of the Whig
party do, but to fill back on the Constitution.
The anti -slavery party cried, away with all com
promisesgive us freesoil everywhere not an
inch ot slavery ground will we ever introduce inio
the Union. Well, Democracy having no other al
ternative, fell back on non-intervention as the true
constitutional ground. Non-intervention by Con
gres3 in any form or shape, whatever. The great
right of self-government was recognized, at any
time and over any subject, save those prohibited
by the Constitution.
Well, now mark the sudden change that came
over the Abohtioaists. They who were tha loud
est against the Missouri Compromise, became the
loudest against the repeal. Aud now stronger still,
men of the Soulb, Electors for Tennessee, join in
this abolition cry and denounce, their own coun
trymen of the South for repealing a Compromise
wnich their enemies at the North had at all times
most vehemently opposed. Sirs, after this, who
can doubt the truth of my preposition, that the
leaders of Know Nothingism, have resolved to sur
render without firing a solitary gun for the protec
tion of Southern rights and Southern property?
Will, however, the private individuals of that
party, its rank and file, follow after the counsels
of such leaders? Their leaders, it Is true, may get
offices by the couraa which they pursue but what
ara the people to get, save the loss of twelve hun
dred million) of their property, and degradation to
their respective States? And what, (asked Gov. B.,
with great emphas'S) what i3 it that Know Noth
ingism has left, after the various changes and mod
ifications of its platform, that cannot be postponed
for the presentpostponed to another year whilst
this great battle 13 fighting now, in 1856, for the
rights of the South? Every man who yet thinks
that there i3 something left ot Know Nothingism
worthy to be contended for, ought nevertheless to
demand that it be postponed for a more convenient
season, whilst the members of that party, should
fall into line in this election and unite with the
Democracy like a band of brothers, in driving back
the dark legions of Abolitionism.
Isesides all this, said Gov. li., if I were a Know
Nothing, I wouid be too proud, in the hour of dan
ger, to Btanl by and let tho Democrats fight the
battle alone. I would say to the world, I will pro
tect and defend my rights myself, or bear my full
and ju3t proportion of the conflict. Wuen I was
a Whig I always said, that if ever this dark hour
should come, I would defend the South to the last,
and now, although I have become a Know Noth
ing, I am a man and a Southern man, and will re
deem all my pledges made while I was a Whig.
Gov. B siid that such a determination would be
noble and patriotic, and he hoped to see it glorious
ly manitested in this election.
Gov. B. said, in conclusion, that as he looked over
the assembly and saw the character of the persons
composing it an industrious, moral and patriotic
people, he could not but wonder at the combina
tions that bad been entered into to destroy them
and the other people of tho South. The great
powers of Europe are aiming at the destruction of
your property; the combinations of your Northern
brethren are against you a respectable minority
of your own people are wasting all their energies
on some little matters about foreigners and Catho
lics and indirectly, if not directly, aiding and assist
ing in your overthrow.
When 1 reflect (said Gov. Brown,) on all these
things, I cannot but be amazed at the course of
the Know Nothiog leaders of the South. Some of
them have opened their eyes to the awful dangers
that surround them, and have come up nobly to the
rescue of the South. Many of the old line Whig
leaders too, have come, and aro shedmg the light
of immortality around their names, in the same
noble cause. Look at Toombs and Stephens, of
Georgia at Jones, at Allen, at Lowe and the Wil
liamses, of Tennessee look at Benjamin, of Loui
siana, and at distinguished names in your own
State. Look everywhere at the strong, and pa
tr.oiic Wbigs, as well a3 Know Nothings, who are
fly to the rescue of the South.
Go.. B. said, that with one word to the young
aud ruing generation to the talented and aspiring
young men of the present day, he should close.
Come, said he, come to the rescue of the South
come to the rescue of the lond where Washington
was born where the mortal remains of Jeffer
son and Jackson are entombed. Come now, come
in this election, and let it not be recorded against
you, in after times to be cast up against you
that when the South was about to be ruinod
by the most unholy combinations against her, that
you would not, did not, dared not, fly to her relief.
No, said be, let that record never be made against
you. Never! neverl But let a noble monument be
raised to perpetuate your name3 to the remotest
posterity a monument on which shall be en
graved the names of ths young men of Mississippi,
who, in the year 1850, when the South was in
danger, when tho Constitution was beleagued by a
hose of enemies, when this bright and glorious
Union was reeling and staggering under the blows
of Northern fanatics, this monument was reared to
the young men of Mississippi, who gallantly rush
ed to tha rescue, voted for Buchanan and Breckin
ridge, and thereby nobly eaved the Country, the
Union, and the Constitution.

"PLATFORM ENOUGH I"
Some people say that "they care nothing for plat
forms that MniaTd f&moreja platform enough
for them." What, then, is Ait platform ? Thst he
has taken-and is bound by the" Knot? 'Nothing"
oaths, is not only not denied, but has been claimed
as a merit by hia. friends. And we have proven
by the record that, by every official act of his up to
1848, he wa3 in favor:'
First Of excluding the South from all share in
the territories belonging to the Union.
Second. That he wa3 against admitting auy State
into the Union, with a constitution tolerating or
establishing slavery.
Third. That ha was in favor of the unconditional
and'immediate abolition of slavery in the District
of Columbia, without compensation to the owners
of such property therein.
Fourth. That he was in favor of the suppression
by Congress of the free transfer of slaves from one
Southern State to another.
Fifth. That he was opposed to, the execution of
cr any law passed in pursuance of that clause of
the Constitution, with reference to fugitive slaves,
or of any legislation which would make it directly
obligatory upon tho State3 or the people.
Sixth. That he was in favcr of the reception of
petitions, in etery shape , in which they were pre
sented, on the subject of slavery, and that in regard
to them and all other phases of abolitionism, he
was as radical and bitter as either Giddings or
Slade.
Seventh. He was in favcr of the principle, that
the federal government could do indirectly what it
could not do directly by the Constitution, upon the
subject of slavery.
Eighth. He was in favor of suppressing, under
the alleged power to regulate commerce, the
coast-wise traffic in slaves, in vessels of the United
States.
Ninth. He was in favor of the recognition, and
in favor of establishing ministerial relations with
the black republic of Hayti, and against the recog
nition of Texas, as a State, except upon the condi
tion that slavery should be abolished therein.
Tenth. He was for discriminating by direct leg
islation, in favor of the property of one section of
the Union, and against the property of another
section of the same Union, which professes to se
cure to all its parts an equal participation in and
equal benefits among the State3 and people by
whom it is composed.

Paor. O. J.Wood: With confidence, dot recommend
your Uair Restorative, as being the most etlicacious article
I ever taw. I nave used the Y alobene and other prepa
rations of tbe day, all without effect. Since using your
Hair Restorative, my hair and whisker?, which were cl

to their natural color. It also his relieved me of all
candrntr and unpltasant itching, to common among per-

Sib: In consequence of htvinghair, for several years
past, not only gray but perfectly white, 1 have cut it short,
and worn caps t3 bide it from view: but some three
months since, I was induced to use your Iliir Restorative,
and I must, in Justice say, that its effects were almost
miraculous ; for it has changed it gradually to almost its
former splendor as to color, and lelt it so salt and glossy
as to be more beautiful than it ever was, when under the
inflaence of the finest oil. I earnestly, therefore, recom
mend it to every lady as the best preparation for toilet use,
of anj thing in the world. BCTSV SMITH.
Parp. Wood: Uaving experienced the magic effect of
your Hair Restorative, I drop you this upon the subject.
About two years ago, my hair commenced failing oil' and
turning gray : I was fast becoming bald. I met a triend
who bad used yonr Restorative, and spoke so highly of
ita virtues, I was induced to try it, although Iliad but lit
tle faith, as I had before tried so many other remedies. I
commenced using your Restorative in January lait. A
few applications fastened my hair firmly. It begin to fill
up, grow out, and turned back to its former color, (b!acf.)
At this time, 'tis fully restored to its original color, health
and appearance, and I cheerfully recommend its use to alL

0. J. Wood Dear Sir : I take pleasure in hear,
ing voluntary testimony to the magic edect of your won
derlul Hair Restorative. As fr back as 1836, my tuir
commenced falling off, until the top of my scalp became
bald and smooth as glass, and it bis continued to fall fur a
great many jears, notwithstanding I have nsed many cele
brated preparations lor its restoration. Seeing your ad
vertisement, I was induced to give your article a trial, and
to my utter astonishment, I found, after a few applications,
that my hair became firmly set, and assumed a gloisy and
beautitul appearance ; and by the time I had nsed a quart
bottle, my bald head was covered over with a young and
vigorous growth of hair, which is now from one to two
inches in length, and growing fast.
Yours, truly, HENRY GOODRICH.
New Year, Oct 2. 1551.
Prof. O.J. Wood Dear Sir: After reading the adver
tisement in one of the New York journals, of yonr celebrat
ed Hair Restorative, 1 procured a half-pint bottle, and was
so mncb pleased with it, that I contined its use for two
months, and am satisfied it Is decidedly the best prepara
tion before the public. It at once removed all dandruff
and unpleasant itching from the scalp, and has restored
my hair naturally and, I have no doubt, psrmanentiy so.
