    What Claims hare Bell aud Everett
upon the Americans for their Sup-
perl ?
An effort is beiDg made to get UD a diversion
in Pennsylvania in favor of Bell and Everett;
but to what good end is more than we can see,
for there is scarcely a whit more probability of
their election in November next than there is
of the sky falling. Indeed their supporters do
not pretend tbat they have even the- ghost of a
chance of election by the people; aud are con
strained to bang their hopes upon a lucky turn
of the cards in the House; though as the House
now etauds they are weaker before it than be
fore the people. \et that some of those who
support Bell and Everett are influenced to do
so by honest and patiiotio motives we do Dot
questioa; but on the other hand, that so,me oth
ers are influenced by sinister, selfish, and per
haps corrupt motives, we little question. Now,
to these latter wo have nothing to say, they are
joined to their idols, and we let them alone.—
But to the former- to those who have really a
desire to promote the country's best interests,
and whose .honest judgments lead them in this
way as the best to that end, we venture a few
words, in all kmdness and respoct.
Mainly, gentlemen, you are Americans in
the party sense of the term, and, indeed, in eve
ry other sense of it; and juu say it is because
you conceive it to better accord with your
.Americanism to support these candidates than
any of the others tbat you are in their ranks.
Now ate you right in this? Are you?
As reasonable and fair men, seeking the truth
aud nothing bnt the truth, let us frankly and
honestly examine how this is. Does it accord
better with the Americanism of the Americans
ro vote for Bell and Everett, than for Liocoln
and Hamlin? Or, first, let us put the inquiry
in another form—
What claims have Bell and Everett upon the
Americans for their support?
Are Bell nnd Everett iu favor of changing
the Naturalization laws so as to requite a lon
ger residence of Foreigners iu the country be
fore admitting them to citizenship? Where's
the proof? Why then- leading friends don't
eveu preleud that they are.
Are Bell and Everett, or either of them,
numbers of any American order or organiza
tion, or have they ever been? They don't even
claim to be, aud Mr. Bell has been so timid on
this score as to an'uounco in the U. S. Seuate
that he had uo such conncctiou!
Are they members of the American Party
in any sense whatever? Have they ever claimed
to be? Never.
Do they claim any connection with, or friend
ship lor. the great loading American sentiment
that '-Americans should govern America?"—
llave they ever ventured such au utterance. —
Not they.
Are they pledged against appointing Foreign
ers to office iu preference to Americans Lorn?
Not they.
Was the Convention that nominated them an
American Convention 1 Was even it so called?
Did it pass auy American resolutions? Did it
put itself upon the record as American , in any
shape whatever?
The Philadelphia Convention that nominated
Millard F'limore, called itself an American Con
vention — was composed of American uicn and
passed American resolutions, aud put itself
squarely and boldly, heartily aud fully upon
the record in favor of the American cause.—
That was a Convention that gave its nominees
a claim upon the Americans for their suffrages,
and as au American, we for one, gave it as
zealous and as hearty a support as we ever
give to any ticket. But this Baltimore non
committal affair, whore's it iD all theac respects?
Ignoring the very name of American—ignor
ing every sentiment and principle of the dis
tinctive American party —not even venturing
to hint that cither itself or its nominees had
ever eeeu or heard of 'Sam,' or now respected
him or Lis memory, what special claim, we ask,
can it Lave upon Americans for their support?
Is it not rather, the most arrant aud insulting
presumption to make such a claim? Aud will
any intelligent aud sensible American for a mo
ment heed it. Surely not.
Then if Bell aud Everett have no claims up
on the Americans for their support on Ameri
can grounds, in the name of all that's reasona
ble and right, on what other grounds can wo
go for them. On the ground of ••Protection
to American Industry?" Why the Couveutiou
that nominated them was aa shy of this ques
tion es of the American. It dodged it point
blank.
But we have said enough. Americans who
are really desirous of overthrowing their in
veterate foe, the Molly-Maguire-and-Profligate
uDd-Jt J lunderiug-lh>ujocracy, seeiog no other
way of doing it than by electing the People's
candidates, Lincolu and Hamlin, will go in for
these worthy meu, cheerfully and heartily.—
As sensible men tbey can Dot do otherwise. —

THE SCHEME OF THE BOLTERS. —The Phil
adelphia Sunday Atlas, a strong Douglas paper
is very severe upon the "bolters as it charac
terizes the supporters of Breckinridge and in
dignantly spurns the offer of compromise ten
dered by the State Committee. The Atlas says:
"This nefarious plot must never be allowed to
succeed; we would prefer to see Lincoln elect
ed, so it is done by the people,"—this i 3 sen
sible. If the supporters of Douglas would ef
fectual!y|w|pe out the "bolters," let them vote
for and elect Lincoln. Tbey will thus defeat
the conspiracy to throw the election into Cou
gress and make Joe Lane the President. They
must either orush the bolters, or be themselves
crushed out of political existauce.
The Aroostook (Me.) HetalJ says:
"We heard a conversation the other day be
tween a Breckinridge man and an old Demo*
crat who avowed bis intention of voting for
Lincoln. 4 l'v always been a Democrat, and
Pve been reading and studying, and i have
come to the conclusion that the Democratic
party don't stand where it did in 1850, and
I'm going to vote for "Houe9t Old Abe.' "
'Yes, and get cheated,' says the Hunker.—
'Well,' cooly replied the other, 'I voted for
Pierce and Buchanan, and got awfully cheated
both times, and 1 don't feel like being hum
bugged the third time. I had as lief be cheat
ed onoe by the Republicans, as all the time by
the Democrats."
lu St. Louis, the Daily Expr-ss has raised,
the Lincoln banner. There are now four daily
Republican papers in St. Louis.

p-c.ch at Norristown, Pa., on the 10th inet.
Interesting Railroad Letter.
NEW YORK, Aug. B,IBGO.
Tbo great want at the present time, as felt
by all who are at all familiar with tai c great
city, is a direct railroad connection with the
West. Nor is the whole country much less in
terested than the city. We mast have a nation,
al mart of commerce —where the produce of
the country can be sold to the best advantage
and lie wants ot the people best supplied. As
well might you run a wagon without an axle as
a commercial nation without a commercial cen
tre. New York has become that to a great de
gree. Thousands of millions of dollars have
been spent in her buildings, canals, railroads,
and ships, and there is, so closely are tiie links
woven, not a city, town or hamlet in the whole
country which does not in greater or less degree
respond to the prosperity or adversity of this
city. Your readers must therefore feel an iu
terest iu every effort for the advancement of
the city, and calculated to make her in the fu
ture what Loudon was to the past, with the ad
ded glory of great country to back it.
There is manifestly danger tbat New York
may lose tbat position. Her roads and oanals
to the Western trade are long and circuitous.
British gold and power haa constructed the
Grand Trunk road through Canada at a cost of
§75,000,000, and her circulars propose to oarry
freight from JSt. Louis to Liverpool cheaper
than our own roads bring it from St. Louis to
New York.
Philadelphia has her own road to the west
by which she is 276 miles nearer to St. Louis
than New York by her roads. Baltimore has a
road by which she is 306 unles nearer to Ciu
ciuuati than New York by her roads. These
sources of rivalry are recent works ; but would
already have had a crushing effect but for tbo
hue harbor and precedence this city has attain
ed in foreign trade.
There is a route to the west entirely within
the power of New York, of which she can now
avail herself, that would overcome theso diffi
culties aud place her virtually as near to the
western trade as any oue of these cilies. It is
a Graud National railroad through (he 6tato of
Pennsylvania, a large portion of which is al
ready built aud all of tho easiest possible con
struction and grade.
By the request of persons along the line I
have recently been over the routo from New
York to the Ohio river, preparaiory to the ef
fort to bring the subject before the citizens of
New York iu such form as to ioduce them to at
least guarautee its constiuclion whenever those
adjacent to it are prepared to act and do all iu
their power. As all may be supposed, for the
reasons 1 have given, to feel some interest iu
the subject, 1 propose very briefly to state the
result of my observations, which will he more
fully set forth in a report now iu preparation
for general distribution in this city.
The Contral New Jersey, Eastern Pennsyl
vania, Lehigh and Lebauou Valley, together
constitute a line to ilarriaburg, 162 utiles,
straight, well built aud of easy grade. It is
one of the host roads iu the country aud would
take a large share of the freight aud travel to
New York but for the disciimiuatiou of the
Penn'a. road iu favor of Philadelphia There
is also a road nearly completed from Alleutowu
to Dauphin, either of which wouid le open to
a great through route. From llarrisburg west
there are still two routes, up Shetmau's and
Cumberland valley, both beautiful aud rich,
separated by a range of mountains. The route
up either-is almost without curve or grade, and
the local busioess of either will pay a Urge
interest upon the cost of a road as the Cum
berland valley now docs ou the road to Cham-?
ber.'burg. The building of tbo Sherman's
Valley would open a new country, and bnug
the celebrated Broad Top coal nearer to mark
et by near forty miles. At Burnt Cabins, 70
miles from llarrisburg by Sherman's Valley, the
two routes unite. For that route there is a
good charter and a company orgauized with
Gen. Wiison of Huntingdon as president, and
plans are now beiug matured to give it vitality
and progress.
The route through Bedford and Somerset
Counties I followed closely, ar.d found it oue
of the easiest roads to construct that could be
imagined. It follows the Juniata, Buffalo
Creek and Wills' Creek until it rises to the
small tuuuel crossing the Alleghauios at the
Saud Patch, which tunnel is nearly completed
by the Conucllsville lload Company.
From this point the route descends Castle
man's river, to Counellsville iu F'ayette co.,
from whence the road is completed to Pitts
burg.
With the completion of a road from a point
on the Counellsville road to Washington, 30
miles, we have a road to Wheeling, Va., the
western termiuus of the B. & Ohio road ou the
Ohio river, and place New York within 705
miles of Cincinnati, 200 miles less than by any
road now controlled by New Y r ork interest, and
having no grader or curves like those on the
Baltimore or Pennsylvania roads.
• In a few days 1 shall forward you a detailed
report, in which you may find something of in
terest, as the subject will yet be felt as on of
national concern. Yours,
J AS. E. WHARTON.
PILES! PILES!' PILES!!!
What is it 1 How Cured, ?
Thousands of persons have Piles—suffer for years
with the disease—yet lew know what it is, or how
it is cured. Every case of Piles, whether mani
fest ed in the form of external tumors, frequent
bleedings, or in violent itching and irritation, de
pends essentially upon congestion of the abdomi
nal venous circulation. This produces the engorge
ment, dilation of the veins, formation of tumors,
hemorrhages, pain and suffering ; and the disease
can only be fundamentally cured by medicines
which, taken internally, relieve this venous con-,
gestion. Hence ointments, washes, and even in
jections. are so ineffectual.
HUMPHREYS' HOMEOPATHIC PILE SPE
CIFIC, a simple sugar pill, taken two or three
times per day, cures the disease by curiug tho con
dition upotf which the disease depends. Hundreds
have been cured by it, even of the most obstinate
cases. All will be prouqitly benefited by it. Price,
50 cents a box.

SPECIFICS, with Book of Directions, and twenty

PHYSICIANS are generally loath to speak a
word in praise of what are called "patent medi
cines." Indeed, it is an article'in the code of
medical ethics, that a physician who sanctions t#-
lise of such i>tn'di<-9 c >i.ti"t !e consider-.<l a mem
ber of the Xiiti'-siul Association. But- there are
exceptions to tie- most stringent rules, and in my ot
the deciph-s -if Lsenlapies have actually been com
pelled, hy the force ot facts, to recommend the
use of DR. J. HOSTETTEII'S STOMACH BIT
TER'S, for those diseases which are particularly
prevalent during the summer and fall. They have
ascertained that there are no remedies in the pbar
macopia which can compare with this wonderful
compound for derangemcut ot the system. Thou
sands of families residing along the low grounds
of the Western and Southern rivers, are now
convinced that they have found a medicine
peculiarly adapted for their ailments, while in other
portions of the country, during the summer months,
the demand for the article is equally large.

years, 5 months and 2 days.
The deceased was from her youth a consist
ent member of the Lutheran church, and it
was with her, we believe, an with the multitude
whom John saw; she had made her robes

gave the evidence. All who kutw her, gave
testimony that "sAe was a gotnl woman ." She
has gone to the upper sanctuary through iiiucl
suffering and tribulation. Through afllictioi
and suffering, she had been for many years de*
prived from worshipping God in the sanctuary
on earth. She loved the courts of tie Lord's
house and its ordinances, especially the EU
cbarist, which was regularly administered to
her in her own house. Iter's, for a period of
tuore tbau thirty years, was a life of suffering,
but she is now we hope, where

Can reach that healthful shoie;

PROP. O. J WOOD : Dear Sir :—l our Hair Re
storative is rapic'y gaining popularity in this com
munity, 1 have had occasion to lay prejudice aside,
and give your Hair Restore live a pertect test: —
During the year 1854, I was so unfortunate auto
be thrown from my sulky against a rock near the
roadside, from which my head received a moat
terrible blow; causing a great deal of irritation,
which communicated to the brain and external
surface of the head, from the effects of which rny
bair was finally destroyed over the entire surface
of the head. From the time 1 first discovered its
dropping, however, up to the time of its total dis
appearance, I employed everything I could think
of, being a professional man myself, and, as 1
thought, understanding tiio nature of the disease,
but was finally dcieated iu every prescription ad
vanced.
Tnese and no other circumstances induced nie to
resort to your worthy llair Restorative, which 1
have every reason to believe, produced a very hap
py result : two months after the first application, 1
had as beautiful a head of young hair as 1 ever saw,
for which I certainly owe you my most sincere
thanks. Rest assured, dear sir, J Khali recommend
your teinedy to all inquirers; moreover,! sha'iluse
my influence, which 1 Hatter myself to sav, is not
a little.
You can publish this if yon think proper.
Yours, very respectfully.

Dear Sir;—l feel it my duty as well as my pleas
ure, to state to you the. following circumstance,
which you can use as you tiiink proper. A gentle
man of this place, (a lawyer,) has been bald ever
since hi? early youth . so much so, that be was
compelled to wear a win. He was induced to use
a bottle ol your "Hair Restorative," which bo
liked very much ; and alter using some two or
three bottles his hair grew out quite luxuriantly,
and he now has a handsome head of hair. The
gentleman's nairia is Bradford, and as ho >s very
well known in our adjoining counties, many persons
can testify to the truth of this statement; 1 give it
to you at the request of Mr. Bradford. Yon can
sell a great deal of your Hair Restorative in this
and tiic adjoining counties if you have the proper
agents. Youis, Ac.,
THOMPSON SURGIINOR.
Dn. WOOD : Dear Sir -. Permit me to express the
obligations I am under for the entire restoration o(
my hair to its original color; about the time of my
arrival in the United States it was rapidly becoming
gray, but upon the application of your "Hair Re
storative" it soon recovered its original hue. 1
consider your Restorative as a very wonderful in
vention, quite efficacious as well as agreeable.

The Restorative is put up iu bottles of three
sizes, viz ; large, medium and small holds a pint,
and retails for one dollar per bottle; (lie medium
holds at hast twenty jier cent, more iu j-orportion
