propriation.
The Iowa and Missouri border war was
incidentally alluded to during the day, and
Ilfr. Linri. of Mo., pressed the importance of
the subject upon the Senate. The whole
matter now rests with a select committee.
The dreadful condition and irrogrilarity of
the mail between VVasliington and N. York
is beginning to attract the attention of the
House, and. indeed, of all the members of
Congress, and of every body else who have
any thing: to do with the P. 0. Department.
A Resolution was offered in the House this
morning, by Mr. C00]2(_’.7' of Penn , calling
upon the P. M. General for particulars in
reference to the new mail arrangement be-
tween Baltimore and Philadelphia, and also
for ‘information in relation to the alleged
agency of the Department in smuggling let-
ters frotn Baltimore to Pliilatlelphiti, on the
Vifasliingtoii Rail Road.- .lIr. Drnicizrz, who
was laboring to deliver his speech, would not
allow the resolution to be oflered. Thus
much for the Congressional proceedings.

\VEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15. 1840.
FOR PRESIDENT,
_\‘i'ILLIAM ii. HARRISON.
OF OHIO.
JOHN TYLER,
OI’ VIRGINIA, FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
POLITIC.-\I. l\1'.i:~'teovr;ni.\'o.—The most in-
teresting subject now on the tapis in tire political
world, is the late coalition between tlteoccupant
of the \Vhiie House. and the great head and
from of nullification, John C. Calhoun! This
ambitious tnan, in his unquenchable thirst for
disticction, hesitates not-tobarter every redeem-
ing trait in his nature. This is proved by his
willingness to receive the boon of smiles and fa-,
vor front a man upon wltoirt he has looked with
unqualified contempt,and whose conducttowards
‘BI r. Calhoun. has been proiiipted by the basest
motives. Our readers will recollect the, quarrel
that took place between Gen. Jackson and Mr.
C. which was instigated by Martin Van Buren.
To prejudice the mind of Gen. Jackson and
supplant Mr. Calhoun. he was guilty ofa trans-
action unbecoming and disgracefel even to a
plotting politician. This was ti.e searching out
for the purpose of publication, the course pursu-
ed by Mr. Calhoun, as a member of Mr. Mort-
roe’s cabinet, the confidential consultations of
that body, respecting Gen. Jackson's conduct in
the Seminole war! As might be expected. this
produced a bitter hostility in the breast of the
South Carolinian towards ltis rival, and from
that time to this, they have looked upon one an-
other as having no feelings in common, and Mr.
Calhoun_’s friends as well as himself, have been
;.j-te.'_i_dy ,«'.l,l1t,l..r‘.o_rt,§l_$§ent_iri thgiijcniiiiry to Martin
Van Buron. Nor has this feeling been conceal-
ed. They have heaped upon him the severest
and most degrading terms of personal reproach,
and charged him openly with baseness and per-
fidy. The humiliation to which Mr. Van Buren
was subjected, when as a minister to England
he was rejected by the Senate, was effected by
this hos.ility, and attributable to the pcrsevering
efforts of M r, Calhoun.
has not all been on one side.
State Rights has been attacked through the
Globe with the virulence so characteristic of that
j-ttirnal. As a specimen, we will copy from the
Globe a notice of Mr. Calhoun‘s absence at the
inauguration of the President. After mention-
ing the fact of Messrs. Clay and Webster being
present and performing their duties as senators,
'I he war. however,
The champion of
the Globe thus alludes to the absentee:
"There was one, however, reprolialc spirit
that could not bear to look tipon the bright and
auspicious day ; and it was a pleasure to all that
the face of Catalina was not seen on the occtzsiori.’
The place be occupied when Gen. Jackson
came into otlice was filled by the kind and
brave Col. Johnson.” (Sac.
Such has been the state of feeling between
these wolrtliies, until on the 1st inst. “C'atali'.ne"
made his debut at the President's levee. Thus
these hostile and biitcropponents have met, and
mutually agreed that all reference to the past
should be carefully avoided.
It does not require 1 much penetration I’) see
upon what basis this unholy a'lliance has been
formed. The most consummate selfishness has
-brought the parties together, and the bond of
-union will continue as long as their mutual in-
ierestsshall be promoted thereby, or the firestltat
snioldcr beneath the surface shall be kept from
bursting out.
VV»hat the effect of this combination will be
so far as it comes in collision with other expect-
ants, is yet to be seen. It is hardly to be ex-
pected that the Missouri senator will taniely
submit to be superseded in royal favor, by one,
too, whom he has so narrowly and so jealously
watched, and against whom liisanatliemas have
already been hurled. Mr. Van Buren. we
think, will find that his will be no easy task, if
he thinks to harmonize such discordant and her-
erogcncous elements. There must be a sacri-
fice, and-from all that we can gather poor Ben-
ton will bctlie victim.

CAUTION T0 LADIES.
A '1‘ R U E s T 0 R Y.
A sleigh-ride is a pleasant thing
VVlien you can take it in the Spring ;
Or when the atmosphere is so
That one can on ujourney go,
Without congealing the extremes,
Or making eyes and nose icc-creams.
Five days ago rr_iy wife was bent
Upon a ride as far as Kent.
I have a pair of steeds you know
That love to travel over snow,
But are irascible—-no wonder!
\Vhen thcy’re compcll’d to travel under;
This they must. do, for on the way
\Ve found the snow was over-sleigli.
The neighbors had turn’d out to dig
A channel through it where ’twa.s big:
Some splendid tunnels we drove tlirougli,
Clear white abovt-,just ting’d with blue,
Pure white the sides, pure white below-
Enclianting vaults of virgin snow !—
Wlitle, in seine spots, to shun the drifts,
They have resorted to strange shifts:
Here in a field, there in 21 garden.
(And no one asks the owner’s pardon ;)
All sorts of cattle now do tread
Over the pink and tulip bed.
But to my story. Though my team
Scorn most obs:ructioiis—yet they seem
To shew some stubbornness and pride
When call’d upon to turn aside:
So wgit when another sleigh
We chanc’d to meet upoti the way.
To equalize our vessel’s weight,
Or make the prow preponderate;
And that the courseI might discern ;
I kept the bows—my wife the stern.
In turning from the beaten track,
My horses plung’d, and then did slack;
My lady s3ream’d, I cra.ck’d the bud,
They made a spring, and all was good.
And new again in splendid style
They dasli’d ahead 0. halfa mile;
The dancing bells around their zones
. . Shook out. afresh their silver tones.
‘Now wife,’ said I, ‘ it is a bliss
To ride behind a team like this.’
No wife replied. I look’d around,
When 10! no wife-was to be found!
I halted——stood upon the seat, .
And threw my eyes along the street :
Atnazetnent! nothing could I see
Above the snow, except a tree :
1 turn’d my steeds and liasten’d back,
When, pretty soon, upon the track.
Right where we boggled, as you'll guess,
I saw a. signal of distress.
My wife was up to chiti in snow,
\Vavi:~.o' her kcrchiefto and fro.
‘ Well wife,’ said I, ‘ I think you’re pickled la
‘ I dare say now,’ says she, ‘you're tickled;
I know you knew when ljump’d out,
But didn't. want to turn about :
Make haste and help me from this yicc,

general informationand sound Republican prin-

come forward in firui support ofihe constitution
and the laws, and of the Republican simplicity

DR. TROOPUS‘ PILLS.
% IIOEVER adv-tincvs it new theory, or
iitttkcs an important. discovery in Medi-
cine, arts or sci...-nee. must expect ritircli oppo-
sition, and esp. citlly ifthattlicory or discovery
is likely to exp:-so the ignorartce or imposition
of any class of men, prtcticed upon the credo-
lity of m iitkind. Iii off.-ring this new doctrine
trndtliese pills to the public, I appeal to their
litl.t‘lllg"llt:e, not to tlirir prejtidiccs, but to their
common sense. My doctrine brings the science
of Mctliciite out of‘ darkness and rnystcry. into
day-liglit—irtto the open day .'iglit‘.ol'tlic world;
and every min may judge forliimself‘ot‘tlie truth
of my tlieory, if the evidence I produce. is fu l,
ample. sitfficicnt, then you ought to beli-.-veit; if
it is no-‘. you are in duty bound. out of respect
to yotirself. to reject it. Irnposition, hoittbug
and quackery are no part ofmy system. I hold
this truth self-cvideiit, that no man is entitled to
the name of tnan who will waiitonly iinptse
upon his fellow creatures.
Tttat, Dr. Troop has rnadc an important dis-
covcry in the science of medicine and the phys-
iology of the liuuiatt systern. of in lI'L‘lln[)O1‘l.tIIlCt.‘
to the well-being and hr.-alth of the great liutitari
faniily,tltatt all that has heretofore been known,
cannot be doubted by the most sceptical.
. I shall now proceed tostate in wltatmy theory
nd-important discovery consists, and I flttter
myselftliat I shall be able to mike it clear that
this new doctrine is true, the theory based on
physiological principles. and. in perfect accord
once with nature’.-; l:i\vs. Before, liowt-vcr.doing
this, I wish to t-xplaiii one word which I shall
have occasion to make frequent use of viz;
Secretion. By secretion, 1 mean that part of
the animal economy which separates the fluids
of t.hc body, as for example-—tbe bile or gall is
a fluirl, and is t). Secretion of the Liver.
Now the doctrine I hold, and atn able to defend
as the only true one, is tliis——tliat all diseases
have their origin in a suppr. ssed. imperfect, or
degtravcd secretion of various organs, for exam-
c—a person from exposure to cold, or any
other ca.usre,.li:ts the secretion of the skin. or
perspiration, which is the s-ante thing. C.lleck€tl.
does it not produce fever pains in the tread,
limb.-, &c. Now if this natural secretion or
perspiration is restored, does it not give imme-
diate relief to the intiertt? Every body answers
yes. Again, take for instance-—a case ofChol-
era, do wc not find a. total a.‘.:s.cnce of bile in
what passes the bowels and in what is rltrown
up’! The moment. the liver can be made to se-
cretebile and it pass -s into the stomach and bow-
els, the vomiting and purging ceases, and the
patient is safe. Take a case of Yellow Fever,
is not the black vomit attepr.-tved secretion '1 and
unless that secretion is checked and changed, the
patient dies within a few hours; but if the secre-
tion is changed to a healthy .one, it recovery is
certain.
\Vhat do we observe in Ci-oup? Is there not
it formationof a. membrane in the wind pipe,
produced by an unnatural secretion. which
tliruatcris the little sufferer with instant tlcatti,
unless this secretion and fortnztiion be imme-
diately checked! Most certainly.
Take a care of fever. what do we observe’!
do we not find the skin dry and hot, also the
palms of the hands and so'es of the feet? Most
certainly. The fever is not the cause of this
lieat, but becatisc the secretion of the skin is
checked,t.lie fever is the consequence. No body
ever knew the skin to be hot when it was itioist,
or when the secretion was perfect. In fcvet-.we
find the mou'h and tongue dry, and great thirst.
What is the cans: of this’! According to my
theory, I say that the small glands in I.llelIl’tl.15.lI
and throatdo not perform thcirnatural secretion,
and that is the reason of so much thirst and
dryness of the month. In fever. there is often
constipation, and the passages are bl;tck,green,
or otherwise; does this not show that. the secre-
tion of the liver and other 0l‘1_{ullS is imperfect
or deficent. My pills wil remove, thetieat. of
the skin, by opening its secretion. They will
remove the thirst. and dryness of the month by
restoring the secretion of the glands, and in the
same manner all tli- other functions.
We think the cziscswe have taken to illus'rate
this doctrine, fully prove it true. VVe might go
on with every disease in the whole catalogue of
human infirmities, and the proofofour doctrine
would be equally clear. but we think it unneces-
sary to do so, especially as our limits are con-
fined to a small wrapper round the box.

found research, study and experience, that all
diseases have their origin in a Stlppl.'CS:C(l, or
depraved secretion, the next. thing was to dis-
cover a combination of remedial agents that
would act upon any one, or all oftlic sec. retions,
and restore the various organs to their healthy-
action. A
Believing the doctrine or theory ilustratetl
-above, to be the doctrine of nstttire, and in the
most perfect harmony with naturt.-’s laws, I felt
confident that the Great Giver of all good had
created the necessary remedies, but whether I
was to be t-he hunrbleinstruincnt to discover
them, I knew not. I was resolved to make use
of the reason God had given me to accoritplisli
this great object. That l have succeeded, there
is not the least doubt. and thc Pills I now offer
to this intelligent community, possess lntrltlsic
merit, and have the strongt st claims upon your
confidence, because they are-founded upon true
principles and a correct knowledge ofthe cause
of disease. _ .
Dr. 'l‘roop’s Pills cure diseases by rcgtilcting
the secretions and promoting a be.iltl'ty action at
the some time, in every part of the human sys-
tem. Thcv are mild but effectual in their ope-
ration, and may be taken at all times, and under
all circumstances. and at all agss. It’ takctt in
hcalth,they k-_.-cp us healthy; and if taken_wlicit
sick, they restore us to health ; this is tlicir na-
ture, tlit,-ir actioi-, and operation. _
