    AnoTntR LtTTtn mom Gt.it, Tatlos.- We
make the, following extracts erf a letter from
Gen. Baylor, in reply to one Trot Can. Smith,
in relation to tha Presidency and Native Ameri
canism.' : The old hero, K will be aaen, fa still
firm in hie determination to become the candi
date of no party. We rejoice at it, and truet
that politicians pf all partiea now cease their
fruitiest efforts to entrap hiin., The letter is da
ted July 6, 1847.
'Upon tho pointe alluded to in those remark,
and to which member of the Native American
party require assent from those whom they fa
vor fur tho Preaideacy,' I can only aay with all
candor, that if elected to that office it must be
by the spontaneous will of the naopln at large,
and without agency or pledeeon my part in any
particular. ' If I evrr fill that high office, it
ninst be untrammelled with party obligations or
interests of any kind, aud under none but those
which the Conatut ion and the hiph interest of
the nation at large most seriously and solemnly
demand.
'I do not desire the Presidency, and only yield
thus far my assent, to be considered a candidate
in the some proportion in which it ie deeired by
the people, irrespective of party.'
Hoaxed The London Mercury, of July 30th,
under tha head of "Life in the West," gives nu
merous scraps for its catalogue of horrors culled
from the American pipers received by the steam
ship Cambria, then Just arrived, and among o
there, the following from the Bristol (R. I ) Fbce
nix : . - -
The Bristol (R. I) Phnix says : 'A few
diiys since a person Was seen in tm Jail by Dr.
Holmes, who had been confined for several
months without a stitch of clothes to cover his
nakedness." From extreme weakness he is nn
ble to talk, and cannot therefore tell what his
sufferings were. He frequently vents his feel
ings by tears and sobs, but not a single word of
:om plaint has been heard from his lips." '

Ie. Editor The time is approaching when
should think about selecting a candidate for
Legislature. We have beard of a goodly
iber of persons who have been mentioned as
didates, and the claims of this person and that
ton, and of this side and that aide of the river.
we, who are not office hunters, think the 'lo
habitation' of the candidate is of much less im
tanca tbau his ability, bis honesty and integri-
And as for the claims of any one to office,
look upon it aa a humbug, aa well as anti-re-lican.
Offices were made for the people and
for the benefit of officeholders, w ho are,
t least ought to be, tha servants ofthe people,
wre are any claims or rights in these matters,
r belong ta the people, who have a right, and
ild exercise that right in selecting such per
i who sre best calculated to promote their la
sts, as well as the interests of the public,
a a maa we think we find in the person of
F.XANDER JORDAN, Esq., ofSunbury, and
a has consented te serve if nominated and
ted, let every good democrat and citizen put
houlder to the wheel and insist upon bis
ination. His election would follow of course,
would allay all excitement ens' division.

Mr. Barron Too would confer a favor opon
many of your democratic frieods, by allowing us to
bring forward, through. tha medium of your paper,
WILLIAM1 1). GEARHART, of Rush township,
ss a candidate for the Legislature. Mr. Gearhart
ia a gentleman of sound judgment, correct habits,
and worthy the support of tha Democratic patty.
We know of dm person mors suitable to fulfill the
duties of that high and responsibl office. Should
the people see proper to elect him ss their Repre
sentative, we feel confident that they will find in
him a public servant rf distinguished abilities, and
an Intelligent, firm and unwavering Democrat of
the Jeffeieonian school.

CitoLKRA Moaaus During the intense heat of
summer, and before the process of digestion is
completed, our food is often spoiled or ptitrified
in the stomach ; hence bad breath, sonr belchings,
costivenest, pain of the stomach, dysentery, cho
lera morbus, and other dsngerons complaints. '
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are certain to
remove all tha above unpleasant complaints; be
cause they cleanse the stomach and bowels of
those putrid humors which are the cause not only
of all diseases of the bowels, but of every malady
incident to man.
Four or five of said Indian Vegetable Pills, ta
ken every night on going to bed, will in a short
time completely rid the body of every description
of suffering; at the same time the digestive or
gans will be restored to a healthy tone, and the
blood ao thoroughly purified that Cholera Mor
bus, or sny other disease, will be literally dri
ven from the body.

Pill. In consequence of the great variety of
counterfeit labels of pretended Brsndtelhs Pills,
Dr. Brsndreth, acting under a Willi of duty to the
public, has employed those celebrated artists, Mes
srs. Perkins and Durand, who have succeeded in
producing three new labels, of so complicated a
nature, aa to amount to an impossibility or imita
tion. The border of the top and also of the Under
label, ia composed of the rnott elaborate and chaste
patterna of lace-work. To crown the climax of
the-e beautiful labels, the paper upon which they
are printed is previously printed with red ink, after
a design so exquisite and minute as to defy com
pe ition j the top end the under label each contain
tbe words, "beba-abjib aaAaarr.'s fills,"
written ia red iuk nearly two buaJred times the
top and under label containing, therefore, upwards
of fle thousand letters." Thera is alto upon the
top, tha ander, and the aide label, two signatures
of Dr. Brandreth ; one being bia regular signature,
thus B. Brtndreth and the other, his full signa
ture, thu Benjamin Brandreth ; both being fac
similea of the writing of Dr. Brsndreth, to imitate
which ia forgery ! The Brandreth Pills hiving
these labels upon them, csn be relied opon aa true
and genuine.

About seven yesrs sgo, (when only eleven years
old,) I was attacked with Scorfula, which increas
ed In its ravages till my throat waa filled with ul
cers ! the boiu-s of my neck laid bare 1 my palate
destroyed, and a large piece of one of the nal
linn rirried awsv. My heid waa also so much
dieaaed that In drinking, tha tea or coffee would
fceqoeroly at. nut of my ear .' A mtea of srme
tliing hicn the Doctors called a tumor eime from
my no e.
I ws under lha en of phyeiejnns of the high
est distinction in this eity, and at one lime pro
nounced cured, and by request attended a medical
bvtiite. where my e ise, together with- Ihe method
of cure, wus ripl.uned lo Ihe student. Tha lec
turer said, "You are now well, but if the disease
hutild reiu'n,'you cannot live lof.g, a it would
soon destroy your wioilpi-e." , ;
I did not believe mywlf cured a' the time, as I
hsd much distre-e in my bend, and ther disagree
ah'e feelings, and hfler a time the u'cers re-opened.
In Jan-iay, 1845. my mother called wiih me u
pon Dr. Mutter for edvie'. He sid I wa a very
eick girl, and it waa doubtful whether ever I would
set well ; if ever, il would be a long while. Tbe
