FOR PRESIDENT,
VVIDLIAIVI HENRY HARRISON, of Ohio.
, : FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
JOHN TY LER, of Virginia.
I Mn. Osnoiuufs S1=i~:i~:eir.—\Ve have inserted
this week to the exclusion of our usual variety
of matter, the able speech of the Hon. Thomas
B. Osborne, without abridgement. We cannot
but recommend with much earnestness,-an at-
tentive perusal of it. It is perspicuous and co-
gent, and the arguments possess to considerable
extent the merit of originality. Fortiiidable
thouglilit may appear to some of our readers we
hope none will pass it by. The reader will not
only-feel abundantly compensated for his time
by a clearer insight into the fallacious arguments
and ruinous policy of this corrupt and corrupt-
ing administration, but will be qualified in some
degreeito appreciate the talents and services of
the man on whom the honor has been conferred
of representing this state in the councils _oftbe
nation.
THE SUB-TREASURY Biz.L.——This odious
measure’, which has become the law of the land,
was carried through the House ofRepreseutative
by the mere force of corruption &. moral degrada-
tion. Had not the rights ofa sovereign state been
disregarded, and the vacant and absent seats
of the opponents of the bill, been filled, there
would have been a niajoity of one against it.
The bill received the signature of the presi-
dent oii the -1.11] of July, thus profaning the day
by the consummation of this most unhallowed
of party projects.
The way the Locos make converts is acuit-
tioii.to old sinners. A wonderful deal of gas
and vociferatiou have been used by the federal
papcrstlirougliout the couiitry,over tlicadditioti
‘ to their party of Gov . \Vicklifl'e, of Kentucky.
This rejoicing, however turned out to be rather
premature, fogtbe governor attended a \Vbig
barbecue on the 9th ult. at New Castle, where
he addressed the multitude, consisting of about
5,000 persons, and pronounced the story of his
conversion in base slander.
The Exploring Expedition, according to intel-
ligence recently received, has made a discovery
of no less importance. it isthought, than the long
tlioughtofsoutliern continent, the coast of which
was actually skirted along tliroiigb more than 56
degrees oflongitude, seeing the land frequently.
“We were unfortunate” says a writer on board
the Viuceunes," in not being able to land, take
possession,.and plant the stripes and stars.
\Vlien the wca:her would permit us to do so, no
heat could laud,the land being very high, cover-
ed with snow, and sloping gradually to the wa-
ter, where it was terminated by ice. descending
one or two 100 feet perpendicularly.”
“The weather was, part ofthe time, good; and
part blowing from fresh to heavy gales, with
thick snow storms, making the nttvigation ex-
tremely hazardous on account of the ice-bergs
by which we were generally surrounded. I
have at times counted 100 large ones from the
deck without the aid of the glass.”
The French squadron uiade the discovery al-
so, on the same day. (19th January) in lat. 66
' degrees S. and 130 eastlong. That ofthe Vin-
cennes was in lat. 66 20 south. long. 151 18
east. \Vli_etbcr this discovery will result in any
good to mankind, is yet to be ascertained.
Several articles, both original and select, have
been thrust out. The productiotis of our poet-
ical friends are under consideration. The cele-
bration at \Vestport. if not too late, will receive
ttention next week. -
COMPLIMENTARY.-—-Tile Globe says Dr.
Duncan’s speech “ has a spice ofcoarseness suit-
ed to the \Vestern people!”
Hon. R. M. T. HUi\"ri:a.—Tliis gentleman
in a letter to his constituents, dcfineshis position
as that of a neutral in the approaching Presiden-
tial contest, & declares his determination, in con-
sequence of not being able to agree with either
of the candidates, to decline a re-election.
Cor.. JOHNSON AT HARitisuur.GH.—Thc cor-
respondent of the U. S. Gazette gives an account
of Col. Johnson’s speech at I-Iarrisburgh. The
Colonel is too honest to abuse his old Com-
mander. Refering to Gen. Harrison, “ I do not
stand here to abuse any one. Far be it from me
to deprive any man ofthe laurels he has won
during those memorable days.” Speaking of
the battle of the Thames, be said : “ I did not
fight the battle; it was my gallant band ; there
was not a man, from the General down, who did
not do his duty; they were all brave men, and
patriots.” This must have been rather cooling
to the Loco Focos who invited hint in the hope
that he would denounce Gen. Harrison.
Congress aojourns on the 21st inst.
The corporate existence ofthe Banks _of the
District of Columbia has been graciously ex-
tend four years to enable them to wind up.
The Bankrupt bill has been laid on the table.
New York and Albany Ra/ll Road.-——We
understand that the Committees appointed
‘ by the Common Council and Boards_ of
Trade and Commerce of our city, to examine
the routes ofthe I-lousatonic and New York
and Albany Rail Roads, will depart from.
this city for Bridgeport on Tuesday, the 14th
inst. From Bridgeport they will pass to
New Milford, and thence to the North line
of Connecticut, from which point they. will
return to the city by the way of Anienra. in
Dutchess County, Pawlings. White Plains.
&c. following on their return the course of
the proposed route for the New York and
Albany Rail Road.--J. of C0722.

SELECTED SUMMARY.
The National Gazette says: “We learn
that the sentence of the Court Martial,
which recently tried Commodore Elliot in
this city on sundry charges, is suspension
from his functions for four years, and witli-
holding of his pay for two years. ~ Whether
the President has approved of the sentence,
and on what charges it is founded, we have
not heard.
“Borrowed Capital.”-—If it was not for
the fact that Mr. Van Burcn’s name appears
as the presidential candidate in the federal
papers, we should suppose from their contents
that Gen. Jackson was running for a third
term. His opinions are paraded and worth
appealed to a dozen times where Mr. Van
Buren’s is once. This looks like trading
upon borrowed capital with a vengeance.
Allictny/. Ere. Jour.
LC(I.(lfl1l’/I.C.——A. valuable lead mine has
been discovered about too miles below Saubu-
ry (Pa.) the vein is nearly ten feet thick, and
passes through acompact body of lime stone.
So far as this vein has been examined, it
would appear to be at least sixteen feet in
breadth.
Atlantic Irmtrrtncc Conzpaizg/.—The his-
tory of this Company is most extraordinary.
‘It has now been in existence ten years, and
since that period, has dividtd two hundred
and forty-nine and a half per cent. and has a
surplus now on hand of over one hundred
and fifty per cent. which if divided, would
give the stockholders their capital back,
and three hundred per ceut., and if the inte-
rest on the dividends were added, the sum
would be much larger.
The earliest English voyage to India, by
the Red'Sca, says the Polytechnic Journal,
quioting the Saxon Chronicle, was performed
in the time of Alfred the Great, by Sighelm,
bishop ofSherborne, who took presents for the
King to the shrine of St. '1‘liomas, and
brought back spices and gums from the East.
A clinching argument proving the truth of
Phrenology, is, that a professor of the art re-
cently fought a duel down South, and had
his entire organ of combativcness shot off.-
Since then he has never wanted to fight
again.
Mart.-iful Sclzc/nc.——'1‘lie 28th section of
Mr. Poinsett's plan for organizing the Mili-
tin of the United States, provides that ifa cit-
izen shall fail to march when ordered by the
President, he shall be fined not less than
halfnor more than three months’ pay, and
to i7nprlson.mcn£ on failing to pay the
fine; and the 39th section provides further
that the United States Marshal shall collect
the fine, £131 A’/ul if lira citizen has no
'propcrl_7/, he is to suffer z'7n.p2't'so7zmc2zl until

Emazitirzaliort at IVt:sl Point.---The Board
of Visiters at VVest Point adjiiriied on the
25th, ult. having finished their examination
of the institution. The Board on organiz-
ing, appointed Bishop t;)nderdonk, of N. Y.,
President, and Professor Reed, secretary.-—

A correspondent of ours at New Burling-

June 22 encloses us a copy of a letter from
Amos Kendall which he had received, and
adds the following :
“O, Amos, where is thy blush! I can
neither be awed by your acrimonious address,
nor purchased by your letter, from the sup-
port of Old Tip. It is not worth your while
to beat up for Loco-loco voters among us
Hoosiers. We are not concerned about our
old Gcneral’s opinions—wc know them well
——wé have fought under his banner we
are familiar with him in every sense. The

JIOFF.-1 TTS VEGETABLE LIFE
JIIEDICINES.
HESE iiitdkciues are’ indebted for their’
name to their manifest and sensible action
in purifying the springs and channels of life, and
enduing them with renewed tone and vigor. In
many hundred certified cases which have beeri,
made public. and in almost every species of
disease to which the human frame is liable, the
happy effects of Mq[]'at‘s Life Pills and PIt.cm'.r
Billcrs have been gratefully acknowledged by
the persons beriefitted, and who were previously,
unacqbainted with the beautifully philosophical
principles upon which they are compounded, and
upon which they consequently aci.
The Life Medicines recommend themselves
in diseases of every form and description; Their
first operation is to loosen from the coats of the
stomach and bowels, the various impurities and
crudities constantly settling around them, and to
remove the hardened fzeees which collect in the
convolntions ofthe small intestines. Other me-I
dicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind as to produce ha-
bitual e'ostiveness, with all its train of evils, or
sudden diarrbcca, with its imminent dangers.-
This fact is well known to all regular auato-‘
inists, who examine the liumau bowels after
death: and hence the prejudice of these well
informed men against quack medieines—-or me-
dicine prepared and heralded to the public by
ignorant persons. The second effect of the
Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the
bladder, arid by this means, the liver and the
lungs, the healthful action of which enterely de-
pends upon tbt. regularity of the urinary organs.-
’I‘lie blood, which takes its red color from the
agency ofthe liverand the lungs before it passes
into the heart, being thus purified by them
and nourished by lbod coming from a clean
stomach, courses freely through the veins. re-
news every part ofthe system. and triumphant-
ly mounts the banner of health in the blooming
cheek. _ ,, _ _ y ,
Moffat’s Vegetable Life Medicines have
been thoroughly tested, and pronounced a sov-‘
ereign remedy for Dyspepsia, Flatuleney, Pal—'
pitation of the Heart, Loss_of Appetite, Heart-
‘ burn and Headache, R‘-estlessuess, Ill-temper,
Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costive-‘
ness, Diarrhoea. Cholera, Fevers of all kinds,-
Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kinds, Grav-'
el. Worms, Asthma and Consumption, Scurvy,-
Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutie Erripiions 6:
Bad Complexions. Eruptive complaints. Sallow,
Cloudy. and other disagreeable Complcxions;
SaltRheum, Erysipelas, common colds and In-'
fluenza, and various other complain-ts which af-‘
flict the human frame. In Fever an Aguc;
particularly, the Life Medicines have been most-
eniinently successful; so inucb so that in the?
Fever and Ague d-istricts. physicians almost
universally prescribe them. _ _ , _
f lil that Mr. Mofibt requires of his patients‘
is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines-
strictly according‘ to the directions.- It is not by
a newspaper notice. or by any thing that he‘
himself may say in their favor, that he hopes‘
to gain credit. It is alone by the results ofe.‘
fair trial‘. , H 4 _ - _ _ ,
