The Temperance Resolutions,
After the nominations were made by the'Tem
perance Convention, on Friday week, a lengthy Ad
dress was read by JAMES BLAZE, Esq., of this Cityt
whet. Mr. WICKERSHAM, of Marietta, reported the
following Preamble and Resolutions, which were
adopted as the platform of the Temperance men of
this County :
Wasazas: We are anxious by all prol,er means
in our power to hasten the passage• of a law
prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors as a bev
erage, and therelore cannot vote for those who are
opposed to such prohibition; and, whereas, notwith
standing all remonstrances to. the contrary, the rul
ing political party of this county still adheres to its
policy of nominating men for the Legislature bitter
ly hostile to this measure; therefore,
Resolved, That, compelled by the necessity of
'voting for men opposed to Prohibition, or selectiug
candidates of our own, this Convention chooses the
latter alternative, and presents to the voters of the
county, a ticket composed of men, capable, honest,
upright, and temperate, lavorable to low taxes and
protection from the evils of the liquor traffic, and
earnestly solicits their support.
Resolved, That now, as at the time of the for
mation of the Prohibition ticket last year, we have
no design of creating a separate political party, and
have no wish to continue as such longer than is es
sential to the accomplishment of the special pur
pose that has made our organization necessary.
Resolved, That all attempts to regulate the sale
of liquor by the enactment of license laws, or to re
strict it by the payment of license, are as false in
principle as would be' similar laws licensing rob
bery and counterfeiting; and therefore total prohi
bition is the only remedy for the evil, true in theo
ry and effective in practice.
Resolved, That since it is the duty of a legiti
mately constituted government to protect its citi
zens in their rights—to secure, in the language 01
our State Constitution, their peace, ealety, and hap
piness—we' hold that a traffic which tills our jails
with criminals, our poor houses with paupers, and
creates untold vice, wretchedness and poverty in
every community, is subversive of these ends, strict
ly unconstitutional, and should be abolished.
Resolved, That as the harmony and well being
of Society can only be preserved when each of its
members is content to pursue such a business as
will injure that of no other member; or, as the truth
of the sentiment expressed by Blackstone is unques
tionable, that 'Natural law requires that we should
live honestly, hurt nobody, and render to every one
his due," is is no improper exercise of the functions
of government to sacrifice, to the public good, prop
erty accumulated in violation ot the rights ot So
ciety and of natural law; and the consistent appli
cation of these functions demands, with at least
equal force, that the business of rum selling be out
lawed, and the liquor destroyed, that it does the de
struction of the tools of the counterfeiter or the
breaking up of the den of the gambler.
Resolved, That in addition to the obvious truth,
that while the number pf distilleries has greatly di
minished, the price of grain has risen, the published
declaration of Mr. C. S. HALUE3IA,N, a distinguished
distiller of this county, "the whiskey manufactured
in Pennsylvania is sold almost totally to alcoholic
distillers; that Alcohol is never drank, and therefore
a mere mile of the spirits made is ever used as a.
beverage," coupled with the fact that no advocate
of Prohibition has any desire to interfere with such
manulacture, should Convince our farmers that they
have nothing ((Pleat from the passage of a prohibi
tory law.
Resolved, That the shameful fact that there are
at this time at least 1500 habitual drunkards in
Lancager co.; that 1000 families are living in a
state of poverty and wretchedness in consequence
of liquor; that 352 of the 440 paupers in the poor
house, came there through intemperance; that two
thirds of the criminal business of the county results
from this cause, that nearly all the - vagrants and
dis3rderly persons taken up by the city or borough
police are in a state of intoxication; that most of
the bodies upon whom coroner's inquests are held
are those of drunkards; that the enormous amount
of $40,000 is paid annually out of the county treas
ury for the support of Rum; should arouse the pen -
ple to some sense of the magnitude of the evils of
the liquor traffic, and induce corresponding eftm•ts
to abolish it.
Resolved, That while we hold it to be the duty
of our Legislature to pass a prohibitory law and
grant us the protection which such a law would fur
nish, we will be satisfied it the democratic principle
be adopted, giving us the opportunity of voting
Rum or no Rum at a special election, as we are sat
isfied that, like Vermont, Rhode Island, and Michi
gan with her 20,000 majority, the good old Key
stone will cast off the shackles of the liquor traffic,
and assume her proper place among her sister States.
Resolved, That while as citizens of a Republic
we will pay all due respect to the Constitution of
the State and the Nation, and the laws enacted by
our rulers, we can never target that, high above all
Constitutions and enactments of men are the eter
nal and immutable laws of God, which we acknowl
edge of higher authority; and in accordance with
the injunction, ` • to obey God rather than men(' we
will ever strive in a moral and constitutional way
to have such laws as the one licensing the sale of
intoxicating liquors erased from the statute books.
Resolved, Tnat with the Maine Late, Low Taxes,
and Protection front Rum, inscribed upon our ban
ners, and engraver on our hearts, we will go into
the contest--enlisted for the war—satisfied ol the
eternal verity (though its realization be distant,) 01
the God-inspired sentiment that "truth must tri
umph," arid with that triumph Alcoholic Drinks
and their concomitant evils be banished from the
country, and PEACE, PLENTY and•HAersNEss uni
versally prevail throughout its broad borders.
AN INCIDENT OF THE EPIDEMIC AT NEW-011-
LEAN6.—The N. 0. Delta, of the 14th inst., records
the following sorrowful incident
• "We greeted an old acquaintance yesterday, on
Nayades street, whom we had not seen for a tort
night before. He tad a care-worn and troubled
countenance. His eyes were sunken and his cheeks
were hollow, and care had left its toot-prints on his
brow; he looked at least ten years older than when
last we saw him. We asked if he had been sick,
and, if not, to explain the cause of his great change!
'Alas!' he replied, a few days ago, and I was happy
in the possessan ot a lather, a Mother, and three
loved sisters; but I am alone now—l buried the last
one yesterday.' We were answered ;it was indeed
enough to turn the darkest hairs to snowy white
ness. And yet it is but one instance out 01 many
which daily occur in ou rcity."
FOREIGN NEWS. —The steamship Asia arrived
At New York on Thusday night, bringing news to
the 27th ult.
The Turkish difficulties appear to be settled, al-
though the Porte is understood to insist upon the
Czar evacuating the Danubian Principalities, before
he will send an ambassador to St. Petersburg.
On the 24th, Mr. INGERSOLL presented to the
Queen his letters of recall, and Mr. BocasscaN was
presented by the Earl of Clarendon. The ceremony
took place upon the Isle of Wight, where the Queen
was temporarily sojourning.
DOYLESTOWN WATCHTOWER.—We perceive that
this paper was advertised to be sold by the Sheriff of
Bucks county, on Wednesday last at 1 o'clock.—
The editor and proprietor was obliged to make an
assignment by the delinquency of many of his sub
scribers, who, had they discharged their obligations
to him like respectable, fair-dealing men, would not
only have saved his business from destruction, but
the prospects of the young editor' and printer from
the blighting influences of such en event. It is a
sad commentary upon the negligence of subscribers
to "pay the printer.'
NEW ORLEANS, Sep. B.—The terrible epidemic
which has swept ()freight or nine thousand inhabi
tants of this city, is at length decidedly abating, and
it is hoped that it will disappear before a great
while.
The interments reported by the Bead of Health
for the twenty-four hours ending at 6 o'clock this
morning, were one hundred and thirty-seven, of
which ninety five were of yellow fever, and fifteen
described as " unknown." This ielower than any
day since the first of August.
.The story of the New York Tribune, in refe
rence to the shipment of the clothes of yellow fe
ver victims to New York, as old rags, originated in
the old privilege of the Sisters of Charity, at the
Hospital, of selling the clothes of the dead. But
they are all washed and purified before they are
sold.
We learn from Mobile that the fever is on the
increase there, but the cases are of a mild type.
Nzsmuii..—Another large piece of Table Rock,
at the Falls, became detached on Friday last, and
and fell with a tremendous crash just over the path
which leads uuder the sheet of water of the Horse
Shoe Fall.
REvormnominx Wriows.—Taenty-four hun.
dred claims have been made upon the Department
for pensions under the act February 3, 182, grant
ing pensions to the widows of officers and soldiers
of the Revolution who were married subsequent to
the year 1800. When the law was enacted it was
generally supposed that them would not he more
than three hnndred claims in all.
. p'- The Democratic Senatorial Conference of
Clarion, Indiana and Armstrong counties, balloted
105 times before effecting a nomination. Finally
PETER CLOVER, Esq., was the successful candidate.
It took 372 ballots to nominate a Judge in the same
district. They must be a crooked set of disciples
in that region.
Acirsromanossre Tin! Consr.—The continual ex
posues,which bre being made at Washington in ref
erence to the financial peculation and mismanage
ment of the late Ftwasoan Administration, is induc
ing some of the Whig press even to admit the fact,
who have.heretofore strenuously contended that the
charges of the Democratic presa were gross cilium:
pies, and thatthe late Wit igdynastywas moat shame-.
fully belied in that particular. The Buffalo Ex
press, an able and respectable Whig paper, printed
at the residence ot Mr. Fircrasoak; being taunted by
the Rochester 4merican. which sympathizes with a
different wing of the Whig party in New York from
the Express, with the corruption and profligacy ot
the leading men ot its branch of the party, thus
retorts upon the .Fxzrarnaz organ, and all must ad.-
mit its lorce and effect:
"The shameful peculation, plunder and corrupt
ion exibited in 1851," we would remind the Amer
ican, were not altogether confined to the canal let
tings of this State, but extended over a much wider
sphere. The American, perhaps, has not yet heard
of the Galphins."
Ela - The total amount of 'material aid' obtained,
from other cities and towns, for the relief of the
sickand destitute in New Orleans, is about $170,000
The total number of deaths, thus far, by fever, has
been about 7,500! or over three fourths or the en
tire mortality since the 28th of May last, when the
first case of lever was reported.
MEXlCo. — Advices from Mexico, received by the
New Orleans Picayune, say that the Diario Oficial,
the Government organ in the city of Mexico, con
tradicts, in explicit terms, the rumors that have
been circulated respecting alliances of Mexico with
Spain and England for the protection of Cuba, 'and
respecting the project for again placing Mexico in
union with the Spanish dominions. It is probable
that Santa Anna's reputed intrigues with the Span
ish government have been with a view to securing
Spanish aid against the United-States in case of
necessity.
CL7Tee POST-MASTER GENERAL has decided that
the new stamped envelopes can only be used with
out mutilation. In a case where a stamp was cut
from an envelope, and pasted on another envelope
a post-master forwarded .the letteras unpaid, and
this course was approved of by the department.

But I discovered •on their assembling here, on

other candidates against me. Their delegates, wish
difficulty, were induced to follow their direction.
Seeing the will ot their constituents about to be

whom I have confidence; and now I announce my
self as a candidate for your suffrages, and shall re

A New Feature.—The distribution for 1853 is
guaranteed from the commencement, irrespeCtive

ceeding $4,000. These works are now in pro

From two eminent Pyhysicians in
FAYETTEVUIX, TEEN., April 16th, 1861.
Sir :—We have given your Cherry Pectoral an
extensive trial in our practice, and find it to surpass
every other remedy we have for curing affections of
the respiratory organs.
DRS. DIEMER & HAMPTON
To gingers and public speakers this remedy is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lunge,
when taken in small quantities, it removes al
hoarseness in a few hours, and wonderlully in
creases the power and flexibility of the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and often
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
some cases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure theM, if they
can be cured.
Sronchitis, or irritation of the throat and upper
portion of the lungs, my be cured by taking Cherry
Pectoral in small and frequent doses, The uncom
fortable oppression is soon relieved.'
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NEW Yorta,
states :—"I have seen the Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma and Brnoctutia as leads me
to believed it can rarely tail to cure those diseases." ,
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to be
followed by large and frequent doses of the Cherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the.dieease. If taken in
season, it will not fail to cure.
Whooping cough may be broken up and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pec.oral.
The influenza is speeduy removed by this rem
edy. Numerous instances have been noticed where
whole families were protected from any serious
consequences, while their neighbors, WILtIOUt the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering trout the disease.
SALLIE, Ohio, June 11th, lobl.
Dr. .1. C. Ayer write to Worm you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry ?enteral in
this place, and in my own family. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physician., freely states
that he considers it the best remedy we have for
pulmonary diseasea, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other Medicine he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says that
during the run of Influenza here this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine he could
scarcely have believed without seeiug.

Dr.oVeLksTritc Morr, the widely celebrated
Professor of Surgery in the Medical College, New
York City, says It gives me pleasure to cer
tify the value and efficacy of Ayre's Cherry Pec
toral,' which I consider peculiarly adapted to cure
diseases of the Throat and Lungs."
Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have
been effected by Cherry Pectoral-iii such extreme
case as warrant the belief that a remedy has at
length been founct‘that can be depended on to cure
the Coughs, Coldslnd Consumptions which carry
from our midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
confidence for relief, and they should not fail to
avail themselves 01 it.

statement of his case, and remit $5, to enable me
to pay for advertising, postage, &c., and time and
trouble of writing out directions, which require no
interference, with business will certainly improve
the general health, as well as invigorate the organs
affected, and perlect a cure as soon as possible, at
very trifling expense. Correspondents may rely upon
