ANOTHER LETTER FROM MAJOR
DOWNING.
OX THE ROAD TO THE M AR,
.AUGUST , 1847.
Mb. Gales & Seatox:
. Jly dear old friends'. I spose you'll
be amazingly disapinled to find I'm away
offhere, pushin on to. the seat of war,
and didn't call to see you when I come
through Washington. Rut you must'nt
blame rae for it, lor I couldn't help it; the
President wouldn't let me call: lie said I
was getting quite too thick with you,
writing letters to you and all that. And
.when he spoke about the letters, he looked
lund of red and showed considerable
spunk."
. Says he, Major Downing I have put a
good deal of ennfidence in you as a friend
jf niy administration; and if you are a
.friend to it you must let Gales and Sea ton
alone; fceop out of their way tind have
nothing to do with thera; they are dan
gerous, mischief-making fellers, eternally
.peckin at my administration, all weathers.
JLet me try to keep tilings ever so snug,
.and lay my plans ever so deep; they are
sure to dig them all up, lug them into the
Intelligencer, and blaze 'cm all over the
.country. Confound their pictur?, they
are the most troublcsame customers an
administration ever had; they've come
pretty near swamping me two or three
times. So, if you are my friend, I warn
you not to be so thick with Gales and
Beaton.
. Well, says I, Colonel, you know I am
a friend to you and your administration,
as much as I ever was to the old Gineral
smd his administration; and I shall stand
by you and do every thing I can to help
you out of this scrape you've got into a
bout the war. But I don't know as that
need to make me break with Gales and
iSeoton. We've been old friends so long,
at would be kind of hard for me to give
'era up now; and I don't hardly think
they are quite so bad as you think for.
They may not mean to do you so much
hurt when they put these things into
their paper, aud only put them in because
they think folks waut to know what's
poing on. Mr. Richie sometimes puts
things into Iris paper that folks think don,t
do you no good.
The President give two or three hard
chaws upon his cud of tobacco, and says
he. Yes, Major, that's too true, it must be
confessed; and it annoys me beyond all
patieuce. But then 1 have to forgive it
and overlook it, because Mr. Richie don't
mean it. The old gentleman is always
corry for it, and always willing to take it
back. And then he's such a tuff old feller
to fight the federalists, I can't have a
heart to scold him much abouthis mistakes
and blunders. .
Well, says I, Colonel, being you've
nnmed federalists, I want to know" if any
...
of them animals is really supposed to be
alive any w here in the country now-a-days.
Seeing sich awful accounts about
Vm in the Union paper all the timp, I in
quired all the way through New England
'where they used to be the thickest, and I
couldn't get track of one; and when I
disked the folks if there was any federal
ists any where in them quarters they all
stared at me and' raid they didn't kuow
what sort of critters they was. When I
got to Downingville I asked uncle Joshua
about it. He said, in his younger days
there used to be considerable many of 'cm
about, but they wasn't thought to'be dan-
j,ciuua, iui uiey never was much given j
to fighting. But he said be guessed they'd t
nil died out Jong ago, for he hadn t come
across one this twenty years. So now
Colonel, savs I. how is it thev are so
m ' J i
thick in Mr. Richie's paper all the time?i
At thai he gave me a very knowing j
kind of a look, and lowered his voice
down almost to a whisper; and says he,
Jlajor, 1 11 tell you how
that is. When
Mr. Richie was a younrr- man he used to
light a good deal with the federalists, and
took a good deal of pride in it: and now !
the fancies and scenes of his youth all :
seem to come back fresh to his mind, and
be can t think or talk about any thino- else.
You know that's oftctuimes the way with
old people. As he always used to have
the name of a smart fighter, I give him
the command of the newspaper battery
here to defend my administration. But
twas as great a mistake as 'twas when I
fent Taylor into Mexico; I didn't know
my- man. No matter what forces was
Fathering to overthrow my administratian! g 5","". rps'"? ' vans

If inr when I
called to him to lire back, he would rouse '
up and touch off a few squibs with about!
"Sis good aim as the boys take when they
tire crackers on the 4th of July, and did
'about much execution. At last I found
out n way that I could make the old vet
eran fight Tike a Turk and hold on like a
IxilMog. It was by riving him a notion
at any time that he was fighting with fed- j

I see the enemy entrenching himself a
jnund me, and bringing up his batteries
ti fire into mv
administration, all 1 have
4.0 da ia to
whisper in Mr. Richie's ear'
ani say, "Mr. Ifichie, the air smells of
feralisju; you may depend upon it there
is federalist abroad, .somewhere." In a
X2
;nu:c, you ve no id-a with what fgry
the old gentleman flies round, and mounts
bis heav iest guns,' and sets his paper bat
tery in a roar. . His shots fly right and
left, and sometimes knock down friends
as well as foes. To be sure they don't
make a very .great impression upon the
enc'mv; but then there's this advantage in
it: if he don't kill or beat off the enemy,
he keeps the administration so perfectly
covered 'up with smoke thai the enemy
can't see half the time where to fire at us.
On the whole, Mr. Richie is a valuable
man to my administration, notwilhstand
inr all his mistakes and blunders.
Jest then the door opened, and who
,
should come in but Mr. Richie himself
As he opened the door he ketched the
sound of the two last words the President
was saying.
. "Mistakes and blunders!" says Mr.
Richie, says he: what, have you got
something more of Scott and Taylor s
blundering in Mexico:
Nothing more to-djy,' says the Presi
dent. 1 was only telling Major Downing
how their blunders there have come pret
tv near ruining the country, and how it
is absolutely necessary to get the staff out
of their hands, somehow or other before
they quite finish the jh. I'm going now
to try one more plan, Mr. Richie; but be
careful that you dont say any thing about
it in the Union, and blow it all up. I
tried once to send Col. Benton on for the
same purpose, and Congress blowed that
up. Then I sent Trist on for the same
purpose and Scott has blowed him up.
Now I'm going to send Major Downing,
not as a regular Chaplain, but as a sort of
watch upon them, you know, to work
round and do the business up before any
body knows it. He isn't to go to Scott
nor Taylor, nor have any thing to do
with 'em, but work his way into Mexico,
aud go right to Santa Anna and knock up
a bargain with him. I 'don't care what
he gives. The fact is, Mr. Richie, the
country needs peace, and I'll have peace,
cost w hat it will.
An excellent idea, says Mr. Richiet an
excellent plan, sir. I'm for peace at all
h izai dj", if it is to be found any where in
Mexico- that is, if we can get hold of it
before Scott or Taylor does. And I
think Major Downing is just the man fcr
it a true standi democratic Republican;
and whatevee he does wiil go for the ben
efit of the Administration. Now the
couufry's shins are aching pretty bad
with the war, if we can fix up a good
smooth peace right ofi, and not let Scott
nor Taylor have any hand in it, who
knows, Mr. President, but it might make
our Administratian so popular that you
and I mizhl both be elected to serve
another four years? But when is the Ma
jor to start?
Right off to-night, says the President,
or, rather, in the morning before daylight
before any body in Washington finds
o it that he has got back from Downing
ville. I have forbid his calling at the In
telligencer office, and I don't want they
should find out or mistrust that he's been
here. If they should gel wind of the
movement, they would be sure to throw
some constitutional difficulty in the way,
and try to make a bad botch of the busi
ness. . .
The President shut me into his room,
and charged ine not to leave the house,
while he sent for Mr.. Buchanan and Mr.
Marcy to fix up my private instructions.
While he was gone, Mr. Richie fixed me
up a nice little bundle of private instruc
tions too, on his own hook, moddled. he
n the Virginia Resolutions of '98.
v -v . ...
Presently the President came back with
my budget all ready, and give me my in
structions, and .filled iny pockets with
rations, and told me how to draw when
ever I wanted money; and before day
lizht I was ofiTa good piece on the road
to the war. ,
To-day. I met a man going to carry let
ters to the Government from Gineral
Scott's side of the war, and I made him
stop a little while to take this letter to
you; for I whs afraid you might begin to
think I was dead. He says Scott is quite
wrathy about the Trist business, and
wants to push right on and take the city
of Mexico, but Mr. Trist is disposed to
wait avid see if he can't make a bargain
with Santa Anna's men. I shall push a
long as fast as I can, and get into the
city of Mexico if possible before Scott
docs, and if I only once get hold of Santa
Anna, I have no doubt I shall make a
trade.
I don't know yet whether I shall lake
Scott's road or Taylor's road to go to the
Clt' of Mexico; it will depend
little up-
on the news 1 get on the
three times, when I have
way. Two or
been . stopping
10 rest, I have been looking over my pri
vatc instructions. J hev are fust rate.
-
especially Mr. Richie's.
I remain your old friend, and the Presi
dent's private Embassador.

fll'MlE object of this establishment is
J( to supply a want greatly fell by re
spectable travellers on our western high
ways by residents, without family, ta
ken sick and by patients from the sur
rounding towns and country who resort
to this place for relief Irom surgical and
other diseases. Such have often suffered
from the want of the various comforts
and attentions so necessary and agreeable
to the sick, and from careiess and un
faithful nurses; and been subjected to
heavy and unreasonable charges.
Invalids wiil here be provided with
constant, faithful and comfortable atten
dance, snd at a rate much below the usu
al charges. '- .
r While the care of both physicians will
be extended to every variety of disease,
it is intended by Dr. Speer, lo give spe
cial attention to
ALL SURGICAL DISEASES,
' PARTICULARLY TO
piS i: AS ICS OF THE EYE.
To ihese branches of his - profession
he has given a large, share of his atten
ion for the last twenty-five years,' and
he will continue to devote to them the
experience acquired by a constant prac
tice !uring lhat time.
The Hotel for Invalids is not an exper
iment. Its establishment is suggested
not only as necessary to supply an evi
dent want in this city, in the entire ab
sence of any special provision for the
6ick,'but is warranted also by the success
of simitar institutions at Cincinnati and
New Orleansthe former tinder the care
of Drs. Taliaferro, Marshall and Strader
the latter under lhat of Dr. Stone.
. The building selected for the purpose
is situated at the ecrner of Federal and

Consumption of the Lungs.
TPITISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD
V? CHERRY. A compound Bal
samic preparation from Wild Cherry
Bark and Tar the best remedy known
to the world for the cure of Coughs,
colds, asthma, croup, bleeding of ihe
lungs, whooping cough, bronchitis, in
fluenza, shortness of breath, pain and
wealness in the breast or side, liver
complaint and first stages of consump
tion. We will not assert that this Baham
will cure Consumption in its very worst
form, but it has cured many after ail
other means of relief had been tried in
vain. And why not? Ii seems that
WILD CHERRY was designed by Na
ture to be our PAN ECEA for the ravaging
disease of this cold latitude. Let not tha
despairing invalid waste his money and
lose time, to him so all important, in ex
perimenting with the trashy nostrums of
the day, but use at once a medicine that
will cure, if a cure be possible a medi
cine lhat science approves, and many
years of experience has demonstrated
lhat it always relieves.
" There is no such thing as fatT' in
the history of this wonderful BALSAM.
Evidence the most canvincing-evidence
that no one could doubt, fully establish
es this fact, For the sake of brevity we
select the following from thousands.
Isaac Piatt Esq., Editor of the Pough
keepsie Eagle, one of the most influen
tial Journals in the stale ol New York,
states, under the authority of his own
name, that a young lady, a relative of
his, of very delicate constitution was at
tacked in February, 1812, with severs
cold, which immediately produced spit
ling of blood, couh, fever, and other
dangerous and alarming symplons
Through medical treatment and care sh
partially recovered during the summer.
But on the return of winter she was at
tacked more violently than at first, she
became scarcely able to walk, and was
troubled with cough, chills, and fever
every day, and appeared to be going
rapidly with Consumption ; at this time,
when there was no s;ne of improvement,
Mr. Piatt procured a bottle of WIS
TAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHER
RY, which she took, and it seemingly
restored her. She got a second, and be
fore it was half taken she was restored
to perfect health, which she has enjoyed
lo the present time, without the slight
est symptons of her former disease.
The following we have just received
from Messrs. Fall, McCracken fc Co.
agents for the sale of Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry, at Lancaster, Ohio.
To the Public feet my duty as
an act of kindness to ihe afflicted, to in
form them what Wislar's Balsam of wild
Cherry has done for my daughter.
There is many a parent who has given
up a beloved daughter or son, as a prey
to that fell destroyer consumption. They
have, as I have done, tried all the most
skilful and eminent physicians within
their knowledge, and alt of the most
popular remedies that seemed to hold
out some hope for a continuance of lif.
without getting any relief. JC7To all
such who.likeme, have been seeking
with trembling hope for some remedy of
real efficiency, I would say, seek uo
farther but try at once Dr. Wistars Bal
sam of Wild Cherry. My daughter Sa
rah jane, aged 17 years, whose life f it
months had been dispaired of, and was
supposed a sure prey to consumption,
has been cured; restored to perfect
health ; anil thai too by usinj five bot
ties of Dr. WISTAR'S BALSAM OF
WILD CHERRY".
