' Harrison to the Presidency. is indiibitable evi-
dence tliat Gen. Harrison, and the party who
elected him, are iti very deed the Democratic
party oftliis country. Without stopping to an-
swer tlie question, whether or not either party
may not have the ascendency,aud still preserve
its distiiictivc principles, we are disposed to placc
the title oftlie VVliig party to the tiairieofDem-
ocratic, on altogether different grounds, such as
' cannot be gainsayctl, and which our opponents
themselves shall be compelled to admit are cori-
sonant with the articles of Democratic faith,
promulgated by the accredited founder of De-
mocracy. Jelfcrson hiczself. It is not necessary
to go into detail'licre—we may only mention
some the leading features ofthe \Vliig doctrines,
and leave the matter for our opponents to admit
iftliey have candor enough, or deny if they
have the liardiliood to do so.
First, then, Gen. Harrison and his .‘i'iciids are
in favor cl one term oftliePresideiicy , and are sol-
emnly pledgcd to practice it. VVill any one do-
ny that this is Democratic T
Sccoiiclly, They are opposed to any measure
having for its object the increase of Executive
- power and patronage. ofincreasing the appoint-
ing power in the hands of the President, and
consequently narrowing down the prerogatives
of the people. \Vill any one attcuipt to deny
that this is Democracy in its true intent and
meaning?
Gen. Harrison views the President as the ex-
ecutor oftbe popular will-—not the rightful au_
titer and finisher of every public measure. with
- perfect indifference to the wishes of the people. "
VVill any of our Loco~Foco Solons presume to
deny that here, too, is the spirit of Democracy?
\Ve might go on to cite other features of the
. \Vliig creed.whicli when compared with the
practices ofthe last 10 or 12 years, would not
only establish the right of the \Vhigs to the title
of Democracy, but stamp the Loco Focos with
that ranltest Toryisut.
-« - We are willing to leave our title to rest on the
basis of principle and practice.
CASUALTY AND DEA'l‘I[.—-On tlie30ili ult. the
schooner Mariner, Captain John A. Mott. left
Brooklyn, N. Y. bound for \Vestpori, for pota-
toes. Iu the cotirse oftlie night, the wind blow-
ing a gale. she ptit into our harbor. and anchor-
ed olf Ranfs island. The schooner, it appears,
was manual by the captain and one (green)
band, whose name was Hamilton, a foreigner.
\Vhen the anchor was dropped, Captain Mott
went aft. leaving Hamilton to see that the an-
chor did not drag. Finding the vessel was safe-
ly moored, he went in search of Capt. M. and
not finding him immediately, he called for him-
but not receiving any answer, he descended to
the cabin, where he found the captain cold and
entirely dead. and as it afterwards appeared,
with his neck broken. \Vhen daylight appear-
ed, Hamilton took the small boat and crossed
over to Smith's Island, where was iying the
sloop Citizen. C:ipt. K right, who on being noti-
fied. went and took possession of the Mariner.

The Morning Coinct/i,-—-Alter a long and
dreary night of misrule and party tyranny,
the streaks of returning day are at last light-
ing up otir political horizon. Thank Godl
“ the morning co-math ."’ We hail the pre-
sage with joy and gratitude. Often, during
the watches of the dark and troublesome
night which is now about passing away, has
the star of Hope beamed sweetly through
the murky atmosphere for a moment to bless
and cheer the weary vigil, but as often has
its rays been obscured by the thickening
clouds which threw a still deeper gloom o-
ver the prospect. VVorn and sad, we have,
year after year, looked out of the watch tow-
er, and with a desponding heart have had to
return for answer to the passing challange,
“ Watchman, what ofthe night 2” the hope-
less answer-—-." The darkness thickens, the
gloom deepens, the storm of misrule gathers
ti fiercer strength l” But there is a change
in the prospect around us—-a change visible
in the sky above, and on the earth below ; it
is visible on the mountains, and on the lakes
and along our mighty rivers, and in the
lieavings to and fro of the dense vapor which
is lifting from our broad valleys. It is the
hour of day-break in the Republic.’ VVe
look out now from the watch-tower, and there
is a ruddy hue in the sky, which betokeus
the up-rising, ere long, ofthe glorious sun
of “ Harrison and Reform.” Bending our
ear attentively to the rising breeze, we catch
he first faint sound ofa beginning to stir in the
marts of commerce, which have so long slept
in pulseless silence. as of men arousing from
a deep slumber , but anon we see long lines
of happy faces as the black cloud passes
from above them,and hear shouts of congrat-
? Ulatton swelling up from the awakened and
1080563183613 multitude. Joyl joy! “The
m977Wt.5 comet/L!” November's sun will-
1}
beeni upon a cloudless sky, and smile upon L
a land made happy and prosperous by the
dissipation of 21 long night of misrule and
corruption. '

sively used and recommended by the ilfifical
Faculty, to whom the recipe has been freely
riiade known. It has also been used with great
advantage in D_z/spepsia, and other similar dis-
eases of the Liver and Slomac/i.

nesscd, with much pain. the great and increas-
ing destrtiction oftlie life and health ofsu trian-
y ofliis fellow beings by Consumption. Bron-
cbitas, arid the various and numerous other dis-
eases ofthe Lungs and Windpipc, was indne.
ed todircct his attention and inquiries to the dis-
covery of a more ellicacious remedy than has
heretofore been presented to the public.
\Vith inticli care coiiibinatioti and study. he
has prepared a medicine, which he now presents
to air intelligent and discerning public, with the
utmost confidence in its virtue and success in the
ctrre oftlie diseases for which it is ier:oinrnend-
cd—and whicli he is willing to submit to the
most scrutinizing test of the Medical Faculty.
and to rest its reputation upon their decision.
It contains no ingredients that can impair the
constitution under any circumstances. It will
found greatly serviceable in colds, coughs, and
all diseases ol the Lungs, and Broncliia. such as
Philiisic, Asthsriia. \Vlioo,oing cough, Croup,
acute aurl chronic Ioflamations of the Lungs
and Wiiidiiilie.
By the Dyspepiic it has been used with decid-
cd advantage, and is serviceable to persons la-
boring under dcbility of any kind. if used ac-
cording to the directions. To the consumptive.
it has invariably afforded almost immediate rc-
lief. and in several instances has wrought al-
most a permanent cure. It is not. however, ex-
pected to effect a cure tipon such as arein tlie_las:
stages of the disease; but even to such it will
bellound to give much relief and greatly-inro-
longlliat remnant of life which has become so
nenrlyextinguislied by the dread destroyer.
The proprietor is now receiving almost daily
testimonials of the highest respectability, from
physicians. clergyman and others, who have be-
come acquainted with its nature and eflisct, a-
mnng which are the following :-
“I have examined a recipe for a compound
called the Balm of Life. in the hands of Rev.

it a useful combination of medicines calculated
