.fresh and crisp, and all from
are either the denunciations of overheated
purtizans or the willful misrepresentation of
designing politicians. '
Rksom'an, That as Republicans. we are in
favor oi liberty-—liberl.y to illic, and think,
and speak according to lhc dictates of our
own consciences. and anus-e of right, if viola—
ting no constitutional or statutory luW—
liberty to trade uunlolcstcd ill any oi the Uni-

tel'lacs tile inquisitorial code of any European
lleSpot; and'fiually, liberty to occupy lerl-l-
[my already tree, without the ncccsity of suf-
fering all manner of’crucl outrage,elueity and
wrong.
‘Rusomrzn, That as Republicans we are in
favor of governmental protection to home ill-
dustry, as the only true policy for adequately
rewarding the labor of our people.
RESOLVED, That as Republicans we are in
far or of legislative homestead, encourage-
ment to actual settlers, affording to every
man of enterprise the means of a competence
and independence. ~
ltcsonvun, That we take pride in the
course of’our able and statesulaulike repre-
sentative in Congress from this district ill his
manly and masterly defence of our principles
from the assaults of reckless politicians and
sectional Democrats.
RESOLVED, That we are opposed to the Ad-
ministration because its whole power and pal-
ronage are unscrupulously perverted solely
to perpetuate its pally supremacy, regardlcrs
of the real interest and prosperity of the peo-
ple. to promote which it has beeu.iliti:u='ieti
with pOWer. We oppose it because its leaders
make slavery and not liberty the keystone
of the Government ; and while we believe
‘with its founders that American slavery is a
moral, social and political cvil,yet devolving
no right or duty on us to interfere with it in
the slave States, they require us to regard it
as just and right, and the most con'su‘vativa
element of a free Government, and therefore
to be approved and extended without limit
We oppose it because many of its leaders
openly and without rebuke advocate the re-
ncwui of the slave trade and within the walls
of the Capitol itself declare for disuniou and
perpetual discord.
ltcsou'sn, That we unqualifiedly condemn
all Brown raids in Virginia,as well as lbrcat~
ened Wise raids in Washington. We oppose
all parties that do not stand under the banner
of our common country and reject all creeds
that do not keep time and step to the music
of the Union. We still believe in the virtue
of theme free principles which are embodied
in our National Bill of Rights and interwo-
ven in every article of our unequalled Consti~
tution. By them we will stand, and if need
be, in support of them we will fall. But we
apprehend no such a‘tternative. tepubiican
principles are sure to triumph in our nation-
ul councils; and that triumph, instead of ad-
versity, alienation, anarchymud disuuion will
bring prosperity, harmony and peace—when
fraud and corruption, usurpation and politi-
cal violence with their authors and shelters
shall be driven from power, and the public
weal be committed to those who like our car—
ly fathers believe in liberty and law, ill hou<
csly and right, in fidelity and economy, in
purity and patriotism, which were their
crowning glory, and once our priceless hcri
tage.
Resolved, That the nominees of the State
Convention, and our candidate, this day nonli-
nated, shall receive, as they deserve, our ur-
dent support ; and that their triumphant clcc-
tion may be the pledge and premon itiou of
the coming National Republican Victory.

ed to Mr. N. C. Ely for the free use of Ely’s'

invite its careful perusal. Even the Demo-

36' The Democratic party was found
ed to defend the rights of man against
the pretentious of prOperty ; and us such
it grew into power. Now it exists ex-
clusively as the defender and glorifiel' of
the right of property in “ niggers.”
It was founded to assert and maintain
the right of the majority of citizens, with-
out distinction of fortune, to dictate the
policy and administer the government of
the country. Now it exists as the advo-
cate of the right of a minority, and that
minority composed of slavcholdel's, to
govern and to destroy the Constitution
and Union in case a man they dislike is
legally elected President.
Is anybody fool enough to suppose
that a party, whose only remaining po-
litical principles are "lliggel's” and Dis-
uuion, can retain tllc support ofthe Deni-

WWe have frequently alluded to
the discovery of MINERAL Cu. in Penn»
sylvaniu, and the great excitement which
it has produced. The oil district lies in
Vellangc, Warren and Crawford counties
and on the Allegheny river and French
Creek, in the northwest corner of the
state. ' his district is about thirty’luiles
long vcuty broad, The bituminous
coal 1 on, of which Pittsburg is the
centre, lies twunty miles south of it, and
thirty miles north of it is the gas region
of Ii‘rcdionia, N. 71”., where a. natural gas
is formed for lighting the streets. There
seems to be some natural connection be-
tweellthe products of these three regions,
all combustible ill different forms, and all
of bituminous origin.
This oil is a coal oil and is found in va-
rious parts of the globe, and has various
degrees of consistency. When hardened
it is called Aspflultuul, or Bitumen .—-
'l‘hc liquid Variety has bceuknown by the
names of'Nupthu, Mineral Oil, Ucne'see
or Seneca Oil, the. In Persia and on the
Il'tu'tltly ill the llirlnun Empire it is found
ill large quantities. The name of'Sdueca
Oil has bccll given to it ill this country,
because it was first collected and sold by
tile Seneca lndluns. ill b‘lrlnall it is
used as a lump oil, and, mixed With ilsllcs
is employed for fuel. At Biiilill, on the
Caspian, the inhabitants burn it in long
tubes for cooking purposes. As this Oli
contains no bxygen, it is employed to pre-
some the metallic bases of the earth from
being oxyllizcd by the atmosphere. It
has likewise been employed in painting,
for its drying qualities.
The process of procuring it is very
simple. It is pumped up from file natu-
‘al springs and wells that contain it, by
a common pump, just us if it were water.
It is then barrelied and for some purpo-
.scs refilled. In its natural state it is a
dark Colored fluid, having alluppeul'uncc
between tar and llloiasscs. These springs
ill Pennsylvania yield as largely as four-
teen or sixteen hundred gallons a day,
and it is worth some fifty or sixty cents
a gallon ill market. It can easily be
brought to market, in consequence of the
construction of the Sunbut‘y and Eric,
and the Allegheny Valley roads. The
smell, when burning, is bituminous, simi-
lar to that ofothe Pittsburg cont. Per-
haps reflulngmay extinguish that smell
in part.
it would be curious to inquire by what
process ill nature, the bituminous coal of
twenty miles becomes oil in this region
and gas some forty miles farther north.

tively exacts ; relying, when its powers elll‘eeble-l by
neglect shall succumb to much dreaded, yet strangely
courted disease, upon the friendly office 9 of the physt
clan, to repair the inevitable result of our own ludo«
lence. How many of our dollar-pursuing countrymen
living as if their account at the bank of health was in-
exhaustible are at last awakened to the bitter con-
sciousness that in the strife for fortune they have lost
through neglect that bodily strength and vigor with-
out which there can be no enjoyment of their dearly
bought gains.
" Well sir, have you succeeded in compounding the
Elixir Vitae, or have you discovered the Fountain of

all as the best possible substitute, exercise—appropri-
ate and systematic. Many fall into the error of be-
lieving that the ordinary duties of every day life fur~
nish all the erercise that is ’desirable or necessary.—
But wrthout argument upon this point 1 would call
their attention to the evidence aflorded by llr. Win-
throp, the “strong man” of Boston. Originally of
moderate strength and slight build (weighing but 142
pounds) be resolved to try personally the effect of” sci-
entific gymnastics. He can now lift a weight of 180
pounds at arms length above his head, uses dumbbells
of 100 pounds each, can lift his whole weight by his
little finger and can raise from the ground 1100 pounds
With his hands alone unaided by straps. few will
contend that such a developement of manly strength
could have been produced by any of the ordin ary oc-
cu pations oflife.
Perhaps it would hardly be worth the while for
many to attempt any serious rivalry of Dr. Winthrop
still there are but few individuals who may not reus-
onabiy expect an increase of at least 100 per cent in
bodily strength, after a fair course of gymnastic train-
ing. Some possessing but puny pllysiCul powers themv
selves attempt to sneer at what they are too indolent
to strive for and we hear much from then) of the “ tri~
umph of" mind over matter. ” 1 would ask one of these
(for with just such does the thing occur) when the le-
maie at his side was shrinking beneath the leer of
some burly ruflian, felt that nothing earthly could af-
ford him g renter pleasure than the possession of sufii-
cient physical ability to protect his companion and in-
dicate his own dignity, and truly, friend, may you,
burning with suppressed rage, despise yourself for
your own weakness, since you are justly entitled to
scorn for your deficiency in manly strength, if you
make no effort to remedy it ; and have no right to im-
pose yourself as a protector upon those 'who may
need protection which you can not give. 'i‘lleorize as
.he may, no one entertains a higher reapect for physi
cal force than the unfortunate owner of'a constitution
enfeebled by his own or his ancestor"; negligeucies and
excuses, dud to such persons does the gymnasium pre-
sent tho fairest field. This article has been prompted
by the effort now being made to establish a gymnasiufn
in this place, and with the hope of attracting the at-
tention of the community to a project which should
excite the best wishes and encouragement of all. Our
young men should need no greater incentive than the
prospect ofattuinlng through its end to a higher state
ofstrength and health and a consequent increased en-
joyment of existence We elders who may not desire
to personally disport themselves in the exhilaration
of the swing, the spring-hoard or the trapeze, never-
theless may and should aid in placing them within the
reach of their children, towards whom they can fulfill
no more imperative duty than by supplying them with
the means for proper physical training.

Mlsssas. EDITORS :—We have opened the campaign
here in fine style, by a sterling and effective address
on Monday night by CASSIUS M. CLAY, the noble chums
piou offreedom who stands alone and does tattlein
the South. It was an address which will be long ro-
melnbered by then who have listened to him ; and
could all the honest Democrats of our S'ate have heard
him, the already small numbers of that party would
have been reduced more than one hall". For more
than two hours he held the undivided attention of un
imgense updience, while he showed the position of the
Democratic party, North and South. That it meant
nothing but slavery, and that all its acts were govern_
ed by the demands of the slave power..
Cums Nournnor, of your county, delivered another
eloquent address here last week. and we hope to hear
Sinclair before long. We ale at work and in earnest.
We send word down to l-‘uirfielu county, to work also.
For if we carry the State now, we always shall, until
the principles ofthe Republican party change. Work,
taking for your motto, “ Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you.” You could not have a better docu-
ment for your assistance than your own Perry’s noble
speech. Think how your labor of the last year was
crowned by his election and what a difference it might
have made in the formation of the House if Western

principles really are, they charge the l‘H‘I
llle loot-lit invasion of Virginia upon the principles u!
the Republican party, or infill-r what they Cbllwc 1“
harm the principles of that party upon the stately
question. ’
Jefferson, Madison, Wright, Clay, Webster, Benton,
all held the following principle upon the slavuy uU‘es'
tion : “Slavery is a blighting curse, and while Congress
has no power under the Constitu tion to interfere with
it in the States wherein it exists, if (Congress) being
invested with supreme power over the Territories. pos-
seses the power of prohibiting the extension of slavery
therein.” 'Such is precisely t. 9 position of the Repub-
lican party, and the chn rge which the Locofows have
embodied in one of their resolutions is 9.‘ much
against the principles ofthe founders of this go\‘91!l'
ment as againSt any body else. They intend to make
“ Old Brown” their trump card: To be sure they ex-
pect to make'gteut capital out of the vast mililary le-
nown of Seymour, evidently supposing that the peepic
ofConnecticut are great admirers of small men with a
little military reputation, and that they will Lot hesi-
tate to set him above their principles
We do not wish to disparhge the military genius of
Seymour, en the contrary since that convention, of:
have thought more highly of his military reputation.
He achieved that nomination by a stroke of policy
which would have done credit to a much greater gen-
eral than he j, in fact a grand chef d’azuvre. it seclus-
that he wrote a letter declining the nomination and fu-
voriug the nomination of the “ old ticket” headed by
Pratt, yet he gave explicit directions that the letter sllullld
not be read to the Conrmlion until after a role ,llell Lam
taken ! Thus did he gain tilerictory and place his op-
ponent “ war horse, Pratt," hers du com but. Let us
meet those tricksters of that Convention on their own
ground, and fight them with the weapons ofthcil‘ own
choosing. We declare that this charge which they
have made out against the Republican party to be false
as they well knew and believed it to be when they ut-
tered it, and if‘we cannot fairly prove that the su-cal-
led Democratic party is not only responsible for the
slavery agitation of the last eight years, but also as a
consequence for the invasion of Virginia by John
Brown then we will admit that Pierce, Buchanan and
Douglas, three disturbers of the country’s peace, and
their satellites in Connecticut are statesmen and saints
on earth. In 1852 the two great parties of the count-
ry met in Convention at Baltimore, and each in its
platform declared that they would oppose the reoopen-
ing of the slavery agitation, both in Congress and out
of it. Hardly bad Pierce came into power when he
and Douglas commenced their scheme of repairing the
Missouri Compromise, a sacred compact which had
stood for over thirty years until considered as binding
between the two parties to the agreement—the North
and the South, as the Constitution itself. After" iuy-
ing down this bar'ier which our fathers had circled
against the extension of slavery, the two last Admin-
istrations set about the work of making Kansas a
slave State nolens rolens. The country is still familiar
with the bloody history of Kansas ; the driving from
the polls the bond flde inhabitants, the usurpation of
authority sanctioned by the National Administration,
the burning of Lawrence, the destruction of its print-
ing presses, the murder of citizens by lawless mobs,
are events still fresh in the minds ofthe people ; events
but for which John Brown would never have been
heard of. The history of the last two administrations
is covered with fraud, reekiug with corruption and
blacker than midnight darkness in violence and crime.
Heaven grant that the recording angel may drop a tear
upon the record and blot them out forever. lfany
testimony is needed outside of the Republican party,
we can have it Mr. ex-President Fillmore in his re-
cent letter to the great union meeting held in New
York says : the invasion of Virginia by a band offana-
tics is one of the results of the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise l The Hon. James O Putnam in a letter
to a more recent union meeting says :
“ If our Union cannot survive tile‘confiiet of opinion
on the slavery question, there is no hope of its salva-
tion. For so long as slavery oxidts, especially a. an
aggressive institution, so long will It find is resisting
farm: in a Northern sentiment l concur in the lan—
of your address that we are in the midst of a cri-
sis, but i do but apprehend it will seriously impair the
strength of the government. But whatever may be
its issue, who have precipitated it upon us? Gentle-
men, I hold the Democratic party responsible for the
present crisis. it has for tho last six years wielded the
whole power of the Federal Government to subvert the
free principlt's of the Constitution and to exalt African
slavery as the supreme representatives of American la-
bor. it has employed untold millions of the public
pl ronuge to soli'upt whore it could not intimidate ;
l a had a Federal Judiciary in active sympathy with
the new and alarming doctrines.”
The Hon. Daniel D. Barnard in a letter to the same
meeting, says :
h The Democratic party * * 5' deserves execra-
tion for the manner in which it initiated slavery agita-
tion and tore open the cicatrizell wounds of the count-
ry, after the successful medication and settlement of
13:30. Its insane efforts to carry slavery by an armed
invasion into regions from which God and nature shut
it out, and to force it down the throats of a people
whose gorge rises ut the very name, make it suflicient-
ly odious to honest men. it is a party which has
shown itseil'utferiy uuprincipled in the highest alfalfa
of Government and it reeks with corruption.”

DYSPBPSIA .
There is perhaps no disease which destroys the hop-
places and comfort ofindividuals and families to the
same extent as Dyspepsia or indigr'slicn
Previously to the discovery of the
OXYGBNATED BITTERS.
There existed no medicine accessible to those suffer»
lug from this wide spread disease which relieved it in
any marked degree. ,
The power of these hitters over the above named dis-
ease as well as those having their origin in lnlperfeCt
digestion‘and functienal diseases of the atomaCh, as
well as Asthma and general Deb‘llity.
its speedy and permanent cures cfeome of the seve~
rest and stubborn carol} on record is sufficient confir.
motion of this fact.
THE LATEST TESTIMONY.
We call the attention of the reader to the following
letter from President South, of Wesleyan University :
MIDDLETDWN, Count, Feb. 28, 1859.
Sum W. FOWLR & (30., —Gu.\*rs ;——1 first made use of
the Oxygenhted Bitters some seven or eight years
since. Having suffered for twenty years with a form
of Dyspepsia which was attended with a nervous llcad-
ache, on an average of not less than one day in a
week, i was induced by the uupretending recommen-
dation of Dr. Green ‘- to fr; 0|“ boil]! and if no bone.
fit was received to discontinue the use.”
The use ofonc bottle warranted a further trial. to
the extent of some three or four with a careful obser.
vauce ofthe accompanying dinctions The result was
an almost entire relief from the usual dyspeptic symp-
toms und their depressing, painful consequences. I
believe those hitters produced an entire change in the
habits of my system and upon the active energies of
the digestive organs. I now deem myself as exempt
fronrbyspepsia as most persons. These hitters have
also been of service to other members of my family.
Very respectfully youril.
