The Power. Behind the Throne
If God, kir his own ;food purposes,
had designed • to mortify the pride of the
American people, En. could not have
done so-in a more convincing way than
by the disgraceful position in Which we
`have been placed in the eyes . of the eiH
4ect world, by the gross ignorance and
incapacity of William E. Seward,
Let us cast a retrospective glance over
the record of the past years. Early
in 1861 we •Mind Ur. -Seward notifYing
'the N ; ations,of Europe that the United
states government eonfesseci it could not
reduce the scceeding States to obedience
by connuest." -
. Again, soon after,we have him depriv
ing,the•North of all sympathy from Elie
abofitiop,governments of the- old world,
assuring theni that the status of a
single slave would not .be" changed,
whether the revolution should succeed or
fail. How he endeavored to make good
this pledge Toy retarding', by every means
in;his power, the immortal Emancipation
Proclamation of President Lineoln,is well
known; thereby- destroying thousands
of noble lives, and losing millions of
money-and prestige inconceivable to the
Federal government.
Next we find Mr. Seward disgracing
American diplomacy by his assurances to
our Minister in Mexico, as late as the
fall of 180, that there was and had been
no intention on the part of France to
prepare - a throne in that unhappy country
for any foreign priliee: .
Again" We find the Freneb government
furnished with all the supplies and -muni
tions of war they asked for when invading
Our neighboring Republic, and placing
themselves in position to aid in the over
thyowbf our own,when the propitious hour
arrived. And at The same time a deaf
era is turned to our sister Republic,askin,g
only the Drivilec , es of neutrality when
0
tihe found the United States'blind to 111
former pledges,and refusing the aid long
profaised, - anzl,as Mexico fondlybelieved,
assured by the Menroe deetrine !
But bad as.this whole Mexican mud=
dle haslieen,'thelast phase far
„exceeds
the rest. Worse than all isit,lhat,:when
the *bireinfnent
c onquest -`-• has
aLolished stai:ery ihronghoiit' the land;
majesty of our pCsition;
lias notified` France to withdraw; her in-
Tricling..lneonS, that 'then Mr. SeWard
sliouid send plenipotentiaries to. wander
around the Gulf of Meieo, seeking some
Secluded -port where secretly the,y might
land and sneak , to the 'headquarters of
the trtie 'government to which they were
accredited.
:The national degredation arising out
.of the .Alahami claim; we have not the
patience to speak of at length: The
eheek: of 'every true American'- tingles
with shame when he thinks of the rebuff
kiTen, , u.s,l23 , Lord Russell, the : entire re
jection Of.our views, and refusal even to
submit the,' claims to' arbitration. And
yet in the' faCe of this, no sooner had his
successor, Lord
.•Clarendon, come •into
office, than again'Mr. Adams steps before
the English people asa mendicant, (en
tirely forgetting .in his .flunkeyism the
great advantage' this precedent would be
to - onr -crippled commerce, when Eng
land herself should become a belligerent,)
again to be met with a flat refusal.-
'When this last rebuff came we felt that
now at last 31r. Seward would give up
his-attempts at settlement and that in
stead of -being obliged to accept, a few
thousand as indemnification, we would:
await the opportunity to recuperate our.
commerce to the loss of England, by
merely following the example she so in
considerately set us. The more rez on
had - we' to look forward to this end; for
had not Congress almost : unanimously
prepared • for. an.aajustment of the
-neutral
ity hiws seas to enable us to avail our
selvcSoft.his.4. up p.ilvqcit.no; but again
must lira Seward Step in to thwart the
acts. Hof Congress. . We all remember
how our cheeks burned and our eyes
gashed with shame and indignation when
he Eagle. of-America stooped to lick the
dust beneath :the foot, of the British lion :
ahem, in abject fear, the traitors, Slidell
and Cason, were.surrendered: But de-
grading 174 . 3 the position then assumed
•:;; - 'll Mr. Seward, many felt that our nation
was then in extremity, and that nothing
coAbe- done, but' sivallow, the . affront,
hogii;*, oh I earnestly, that' the •day

While overwhelmed with mortifleation
at the sight of our country, so humiliated
and
. disgraced, and looking on Mr.
Seward as responsible for all the Unwor
thy acts of our democratic President,
Mr. Johnson, as the• whole - loyal • people,
of the country do, and knowing how
clear the proof is of the same. We can
not understand why Congress should de.
bate impeachment_ resolutions against
Andrew Johnson, the tool, and not even
attempt to cripple the powers fbr evil of
W.. 1-1. Seward, the instigator..
Iditor.
Theie can be no reason on the part of
Congress for any feeling of :delicacy in
relation to dealin.• P - with Mr. Seward,
For did he not, more. than ,once (during
the election tour to the Tomb of Douglass)
express in earnest tones his want of con
fidence in them ? Why . should there be
delicacy of feeling for a man so debased
as to hold office in the face of nearly
universal condemnation, and to whose
credit there is not One success nor one pre
diction fulfilled since the commencement
of the war ?
In all other countries 3 when a Minister
has been condemned by the people, lie
has the self-respect to resign; but even
with the overwhelming voice of the peo
ple against him as heard in thunder
tones from East to West—it is useless to
look for such "a course from Mr. Seward,
It has long been evideyt'to the loyal ma
jority of the American people that tjae
Secretary of State haS outlived his judg
ment and his abilities. If he cannot see
this, nor keep his own pledge,given dur
ing the fall campaign iu New York, that
he would retire from office if that State.
did not go Democratic, or as he express
ed it, Conservative by 40,000—then
,does it behoove Congress, at least, to do
what is in its power to free our govern
ment from the stain new resting upon it,
and place itself right on the, recOrd by
passing a joint'vote of censure and want
of confidence in W. H. Seward, and thus
compel Mr. Johnson to fill his place
with some abler man.

Consumption Curable by Doctor
Seheucles Medicines.
To cure consumption, the system must be pre
pared so that the :lungs' will heal. To accomplish
this, the liver and stomach must first be cleansed
and an appetite created for good wholesome food,
which, by the mediicnes will be digested properly
and good healthy blood made: thiii.• building up
the constitution. "Schenek's Mandrake Pills cleanse
the stomach of aabilious or mucous accumulations;
and by using . the Sea Weed Tonic in connection,
dm appetite is restore&
Schenck's Pnlmonic Syrup is mdricious as well
as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies, all
impurities are expelled from the system, and good,
wholesome blOod made, which will repel all disease.
If patients will take these _medicines according to
directions, Consumption very frequently , in its last
stave yields readily to their action.- Take the pills
frequently, fo cleanse the liver and stomach. It does
not follow, that rieCRUSe, the bowels are not costive
they aro not required, for sometimes in diarrhoea
they are necessary. The stomach must be kept
healthy, and an appetite created to allow the Pul
monie Syrup to act on the respiratory organs pro
perly and allay any irritation. Then all that is re
quired to perform a permanent cure is, to prevent
taking cold. Exercise about the rooms as much as
possible,.cat all the richest food--fat meat, game,
and, in fact, anything the appetite craves ;- but be
particular and masticate well. -, oct 20 isc6-Iy." •

BRYAN'S PULMONIC WAFERS.
sigir The-origin Medicine established in 1837, and
first article of the kind ever introduced under the
name of "Pulmonic Wafers," in this or any other
country ; all' other Pulmente „Wafers are. counter
feits: The . genuine can be known by .the name
BRYAN being stamped on each Wafer. •
These Wafers have been before the public for
nearly thirty years, and the , immense sale attained,
not only in America but in foreign countries. - fully
attest their intrinsic worth. The medical proper
ties are superior toady other articles offered for
the cure of Pulmonary or Bronchial :affections, and
the quantity contained in each' box is nearly' dou
ble that of that of the many worthless imitations
advertised.. ,
Bryan 9 s Pulmonie Wafers
cure Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Hoarseness, Asth
ma, Catarrh, Bronchitis, Difficult Breathing, Spit
ting Blood, Pains in the Cheit. incipient Consump
tion and all diseases of the lung.. Not only afford
ing temporary relief, but effecting a rapid and last
ing cute and are warranted to give satisfaction in
every instance. They do not nauseate like acoholic
compounds, and the medical properties are com
bined in a form so agreeable and pleasant to the
taste, that any child will readily eat them. Ono
dose will always afford
• Relief in Ten Minutes.
To Vocalists and Public Speakers, these Wafers
aro peculiarly valuable; they will in one day re
move the most severe occasional hoarseness: and
their regular use for a few days will, at all times,
increase the power and flexibility of the voice
- greatly improving its tone, compass and clearness,
for which purpose they are regularly used by many
professional vocalists.
- - - -
The very great celebrity of this invaluable rem
edy has induced unprincipled persons to prepare
base imitations, which disappoint the just expecta
tions of the purchaser, and injure the character of
the genuine medicine.
See that the word, "BRYAN," is stamped on each
Water, and also observe the fac simile of the sig
nature of the Proprietor "JOB MOSES" ou each
wrapper, to counterfeit which is forgery. 117-Offen
ding parties will be dealt with to the full extent of
the law.
