all attacks upon lhehonoi of the State, Far lev
ly voting for and sustaining every practical
scheme for thp maintenance of her fidelity, re
gardless of consequences personal to himself.—
We recur to the part which our candidate act
ed in thoseCriiical times with pride and pleasure,
and we are confident that thousands of our po
litical opponents at Philadelphia and elsewhere
will join with us in this feeling.
He was the early advocate of engrafting the
principle of individual liability on hank charters
—of tite abolition of imprisonment for debt, and
of every measure intended to do justice to the
laboring masses, and elevate their condition in
life.
His report on the Tariff in 184-7 stands in proud
.contrast with the feeble and abortive efforts of
his enemies in the Senate, who attempted to
break him down on that question. It was a
masterly production, eloquent in language and
tound in doctrine.
As much may be mid of his speech made the
same session on the policy of constructing the
Pennsylvania Railroad. When Representa
tives from Philadelphia and Pittsburgh denounc
ed the project as impracticable, as a ruse arid a
trick, Gov. BICLER advocated tiie feasibility of
the route, and the utility of the work, foretelling
what has since taken place, with remarkable
accuracy. And it may not be improper at this
Juncture to remind the people of Philadelphia
and Pittsburgh of the significant fact, that when
Gov. BIGLER was advocating the construction
"i a Railroad by a direct route from one city to
'he other, through our own State, a portion of
the Representatives from both those cities, ad
vocated the policy of making this connexion by
a circuitous route, passing through two other
States. Indeed, in every exigency that has
arisen in the last ten years, Governor Bigler has
been the staunch advocate of the true interests
of our great commercial emporium, and her ci
tizens w ill not, we tiust, forget this fact on the
day of the election.
His election in I S3l was a triumph of broad

, j In the Governor's Message of idl! Bedford, on
j he placed the axe at the root of this tree oi e% 1
' this spreading Upas, by declaring most emphat
ically, that lie should no longer participate in
' that offensive system of legislation: and that ttie
; whole power of the Executive Department
! should be wielded against it. This sentiment
■ received t fie universal approbation of all parties.
I The General Assembly acted on the suggestion,
and the people are presented with the laws of
1854, each separate from the other, and stand
s' ing on its own merits. This has never occur
i red before, since the organization of the Govern
ment. Had the present administration no oth
er claim, this alone should command the favor
able judgment of the people.
The policy of the administration, is now well
■ defined on all subjects, and its continuaoce can
not fail to promote the substantial welfare of the
■ people. At the time of its induction into pow
er, a number of improvements were in progress
r of construction, which have cost a much larger
sum than had been anticipated, and this circum
stance, it is true, has to some extent embarrass
ed the policy of the administration. But it must
{ be remembered, that these schemes were not
; commenced at the instance of Governor Bigler.
. They had been undertaken before he came into
. j office; and the wise policy seemed to be to prose
cute them to an early completion. Indeed it
| has been declared as a fixed policy of the ad
ministration, that no new schemes of improve
: metit shall be commenced;
Nor has the honor and diginty of the State
been permitted to sutfer in any instance. When
the executive of a neighboring state refused to
surrender a fugitive from justice, against whom
a true bill of indictment for kidnapping had been
found in the county of Chester, the right and
dignity of tbe Commonwealth was vindicated

I'ULVERKI ACKER'S
HYDROELECTRIC VOLTAIC CHAINS,
A New, „Yore/, and strirHy S'cientific Mode
of applying Electro-Magnetism for the
Instant Relief and Permanent Cure
of all NERVOUS DISEASES,
Is for the first time intro'ducmi to the people of Al
bany anJ vicinity. We know that there is too much
good semte among the inhabitants of this place to de
sire a long, unmeaning, extravagant advertisement;
hence we shall simply give you a histoty of the
Chains, and the success they have had in curing with
in the last year, tSliti VOUS DISEASES.
Pulvermacher's Electric Chains were first used in
France, three years since, where the success lhat
attended their use, soon attracted the attention of the
FIRST MEDICAL men if) Paris, who took pains to give
them a still further trial, and recommended their
adoptioti in the differsnt Medical Colleges of that
Kingdom. Within the last two years they have
been introduced in Germany, Austria, Prussia, Bel
gium and England, where they soon becamethe most
popular article for the INST.NT RELIEF x.vn PERMA
NENT ci RK of that class of-diseases called Nervous.
One year uncr they were introduced into the
United States, and can now be found in all the prin
cipal cities in the Union. It is necessary id speak
at length of their great success and unparalleled sale,
wherever they have been liitioduceil. It it Sufficient
to stnte that they are highly recommended by Pro
fessor Mott, Van Bnren, Po-t and Carnocbow, of New-
Yolk, and also in daily use in every 150.-pital in that
city. SI,OOO dollars will be given toony person who
will produce so many well authenticated certificates
of cure, from intelligent patients and scientific phy
sicians, of the following diseases, as may be found in
a pamphlet of 30 pages, to he had (gratis) of the on
ly agents in Albany, DEXTER h XEL LAGER.
Painful and Swelled Joints Palpitation of the Heart
Rheumatism Neuralgia of the Face
Pains in the Back Nervous Headache
Deafness, Blindness Dyspepsia, Indigestion
Pains of the Liver General Debility
Nervous Cough Female Diseases
Tcoth Ache Prolapsus Uteri:
It is not strange that the application of Electro-
Magnetism will instantly relieve pain, wherever lo
cated, more quickly than opium or any of its com
pounds-—for it is based upon the true theory of the
origin of pain—a lack of the nervous fluid, which the
Chains supply, by being applied over the parts af
fected—alter first being moistened with commoh vin
egar, which is the only preparation necessary.
The common sense of the people all over the coun
try is awakening, and they have concluded that they
will no longer make drug .-hops of their stomachs, or
be guilty of swallowing the miserable, disgusting
nostrums that are thrust before the public.
RHEUMATISM, that common disease of this
climate, can be almost INSTANTLY relieved of its pain
—and a permanent cure produced by simply applying
a chain of 18 links for a few days, a few hours each
day.
PROLAPSUS UTERI.
More than one hundred cases of this disease hbve
been cureo within the last year, that had baffled eve
ery other mode of treatment, by wearing a 30 link
chain for a few weeks, by attaching oiie end iipoti
the spine and the other on the abdofneh. After a
simple application the worst symtoms disappear, and
the patient soon gains flesh and strength. I do not
know of one single instance that has not been great
ly benefitted, if not permanently cured.
ON K WORD OF C ACTION TO THE LADlES. —Ladies
who are ENCIENTE, are requested to wear them only
for a few moments at each application, for by long
and frequent use MISC-VRBIAQE is often produced.
