a party. I would endeavor to act independent of party
domination. I should feel bound to administer the
whavernment untrammelled by party schemes.
_----- Second—The veto power. The power given by the

high consen-ative power; but In my opinion should
mover be exercised except in cases of clear violation of
the coristitution,.or manifest baste and Want of consid

IMPORTANT DECISION
. Tho Law Jutirna/ for July . contains an elo
quent opinion by Judge Lewis, delivered at the
June term of Common Pleas Court at Lancaster,
on a case where a certain man devised to his
widow all his property, "provided she remain a
widow during her life; but in case she should
marry again, my will is she shall leave the preni
'ices,' Sc. The widow having married again,
suit was brought by other heirs of the husband to
recover the property. Judge Lovell - decided that
"the condition in restraint of marriage is void,
and the second marriage of the widow does no.
direst her estate"—" the principles of morality—
the policy of the nation—the doctrines of the com
mon law'—the law of naturtiand the law of God,
unite in condemning asioid the condition attemp
ted to be imposed by this testatoi upon his widow."
"STUMP SPEAKEILS."...4. TIMELY
HINT.
As we have now entered fully into the political
campaign, we take this occasion to throw out a
hint to whom it may concern. Vbere'is a prac
tice observed, throughout this State especially, of
brit — fling forwilid speakers at public meetings who
tare perfectly inexperienced, and who, being young
men and knowing little about the affairs et issue,
merely give rein to their poetic imaginations, and
aim at oratorical display. It sounds very well,
no doubt, to have one's name appear in the naive
paper in connexion with the delivery of a "mas
terly and eloquent speech;" but we ere .quite cer
tain that many who are compelled to listen and
give countenance to them, had rather bo excused
from doing so. It evinces a species of low vanity;
mingled with a clap-trap cunning, which, whilk
they be really sickening, cannot well be put
down.
Both parties and all parties are guilty of this,
arid from the fact that newspapers have remained
silent on thA.euhject while the nuisance has been
Oaring them in the face, they have become an un
willing partyda.itly mailing them, and bringing
them into nolice—a certain reward far bold assur
ance and vanity.
We should have our wisest, oldest, and most
respectable men to address us men who, by
their practical knowledge of affairs, their, plain
common sense, and respectable standing in cora
munity, would not Make mere flOarishes of-wind
and breath, but give us living reasons, in few and
plain words. ! .
People often wonder why it is that souse of
dig; most respectable neighbors are never found
! at !political meetings;—men who are first in near
ly . every other gathering, and whose wisdom is
regarded u valuable. The reason is evident:
Political meetings, as usually conducted, have no
interest for them, and they avoid thorn. Their
time is valuable, and they cannot throw it away
foolishly. •
Nov, the remedy we would propose is this
Let no person be called upon to speak at a polit
ice! meeting who is not knoton personally or by
fami, to be capable of entertaining and instructing
the company. Let no one be called out who is
in thy habit of speakicg over thirty or forty
minutes. With good and suitable speakers, po
litical meetings can be mule a:ire:Wm and much
good may be accomplished;—with poor oars, no
one will attend them except to gratify lazy . curi
osity.
YLOR
We throw out these higts for the coming
campaign. We are of those whothink that much
mischief has been done the Whigs• by inexper
ienced and foolish speakers, and we desire to see
the evil corrected. Our remarks must therefor*
have no personal application—they are for the
..whole boundless continent," and have no bpi s
particularly in this or any other county.

li' Frightful Occurrence at the ZaVal
Gardens. --A Liverpool correspondent of the New
York Herald writes; as follows;—" About ' the
moment of the Cambiia's departure last Saturday,
a dreadful occurrence was taking place at the
Zoological Gardeni near :this town. ' As one of
the keepers was engaged hi Lie ,usual dace of
cleaning out the den of the elephant 'Rajah, be
struck the animal a blow with a broom to make
him move. The animal took no notice; and the
blow mu repeated with severity, Which So infuri
sled Rajah that he forced the keeper with his tusks
against the timbers which form the des, honing
him so secretly, that as the elephant retired, .be
fell back on the ground. The elephant had, not
done with binb but 'pia approached, and placing
his great foot, which measures four feet around ilt.
upon his body, crushed him to death. The prelpe
tor who was in the gardens et the time, ' , deter ? ,
mined upon having the animal destroy , le r
upon representing the case at the hair , b.
tinned the services of thiriyaig rifleateliw ' d
to
prepare for the worn, for it was alageclii it:the
elephant was mad, two field , pieces, else .two cap.
tains, accompanying the men', A dose' of two
emcee of prosaic acid was administered to the
animal, which scarcely produced say • effect Tat
lean he moon overcame it. Twelve of the Waldo:'
then fired, but without effect ; and upon ,'twelve
additional shots being discharged, one only took
effect. It en red tinder the foreahooldee—the
animal 'reeled and fell dead. Yen Amburgh,who
was present at the execution, said that 'only that
one ball took affect. ~ Rajah was a noble *Rip ti—

general Taylor's Letter,—Many hivti sup
posed that the lettere and, despatches of General
Taylor were not written by himself, but by another
(Major Bliss.) The doubt arises from their ex
cellence of style and sentiment alio . .
Not forgetting that Gen. Gibson bag said that on
seventeen different Court Martiahrat width be and
Gen. Taylor met, the later was invariably ie'ec
ted by the other members to draw up their ftePtift,
our objecrmainly is to relate what has been stated
to have been lb. substance of s con ion on
this subject between ;Major Bliss' and another
highly respectable gentleman in the western part
of this State. It was this:
. .
""Well ! Maj. Blisi;-46y aay_,the General (Tay
jor) don't write hielmii letters, but that you do
it for him."
i f
`Maj. B. .4 sopp asf I know _as much about
that mart as any other men ' ; end al! I can gay is
that-every despatch during the campaign baa been
written by the Generalf himself—the most I have
ever-ventured to do war to dot an i ctl, cross a t,
and I should like to seelthelman that'wOuld dare
to do more."—palm .Goi. .

the battle of Buena Vista, a party of twenty ath-
Idie young men, direCt from Sandi°, met Gen.
Taylor near his camp at Walnut Grove.
"Where are you from 1" inquired the good old
man of the foremost of the youngsters.
"Just from Saltillo, General," was the rep) , ,, in
• voice such sea favoritoson assumes When Vett
ing to a beloved parent.
"Well," said the General, looking at the . paity
with solicitude, "you had,better taii, careful, boys,
and not trust yourselves out on the road in such
small force, you will get cut off aqua time;' it is
very imprudent to

Blathrell's Woad, dept. 14. Id 1:.
Dr. Townsend—Door Sir: I have autferad terribly
for nine years with the Rheumatism, considerable of
thetime I could not eat,vieep or walk. I had the ut
most distreoing pains, and my limbs wire terribly
■wollen. 1 - have used four bottles of your Darla pat il
ls, and they' have done me more than one thousand
dollars worth of good. lam so Much better—indeed I
am entirely relieved. You are at liberty to use this for
the benefit of the atilicted. Yours z respect fully,
JAMES CUMMINGS:
FITS ! FITS! FITS!
Dr. Townsand not having teete..l his Sarsaparilla In
cases of Fits, of course never recommended it, and was
surprised to receive the following from an Intelligent
nod respectable Farmer in Westchester County.
Fordiars'Auguit 13, 1547.
Dr. Towsend—Dear Sir: 1 have a `little girl seven
years of age, who has been several years afflicted with
Fits; we tried almost everything for her but without
success; at last, although we could find no recommen•
dation in our circulars for cases like her,, we thought,
adobe was in very delicate health; we would give tier
some of your Sarsaparilla, and are•very glad we did,
for it not only restored her strength, but she has no
return of the tits, to our, great pleasure and surprise.
She Is fast becoming rugged and hearty, for which we
feel grateful. Yourf, respectfully, ,

FEMALE MEDICINE"
- - -
Dr. TowsehrEe Sarsaparilla is ■ sovereign and a
speedy cure for Incipient Uuraumption, Barrenness.,
Prolapses Uteri, or Falling of the Womb, Costiveness,
Piles, Leucerrham, or Whites, obstrirted or difficult
Menstruation, Incontinence of Urine,' or involunity
discharge thereof, and for the generaLprostration of
the system—no matter whether the result of inherent
cause or causes, produced by irregularity, illness or ac:
cident. Nothing can be more surprising than its invig
orating effects on the human frame. Parsons all weak
ness and lassitude, from taking it, at onctrbecome robust
and fullf energy- under its influence. ' Ii immediately
cnuntergcb the nervelessness of the female home,
which the great cause of liarrenneis. It will nut be
expected of us, In eases of so delicate is nature, to ex
hibit certificates of cures performed, Dirt .ve can assure
the afflicted, that hundreds of cases have bren report •
ed to us Thousands of cases where tan:flies have been
without children, slier using a few bottles of this In
valuable medicine, have been blesned with One, healthy
offspring.
TO —MOTHERS. AND MARRIED LADIES:
. . .
This extract of idarsaparilla has been expressly pre
pared in refertnue to female complaints. No female
who has reason to suppose she is approaching that criti
cal period, ..7as tura of Ltro." should neglect to take
it, as It is a certain preventive for any of Ike numer
ous and horrible diseases to which females are subject
alibis time 'of life. This period may be delayed for
several years by using this medicine: Nor is it less
.vsluable for year,
who are approaching womanhood,
as it calculated to assist nature, by quickening the blood
an/ Invigorating the system. Indeed, this medicine
Is invaluable for all the delicate diseases to which
WOMCII are subject.
It braces the whole system; renews permanently the
natural energies, by removing , the imputities of the
body, not to far stimulating as to produce subsequent
relszatioa, which Is the case of most medicines taken
fog female weakness and disease. , By using a few bot
tles of this medicine, many • and painful surgical
°paragons may be prevented. .
GREAT BLESSING TO MOTHERS AND
CHILDREN.
\lt Is the safest and most effectual medicine for puri
fying the system, and relieving the sufferings attendant
upon child-birth ever discovered. It strengthens both
the mother and child, prevents pain . and- disease, in
creases and enriches the food, those who have used it
think it is indispensable. It is highly useful both be
fore and after confinement, as it prevents diseases at
tendant upon childbirth—in Costiveness,Piles, Cramps,
dwelling of the Feet, Despondency, Heartburn, Vomit
ing, Pala in the Back and Loins, False Pains, He
morrhage, and In regulating the lecretions nod equali
zing the circulation it has no equal. The grsat beauty
of this medicine le, it is always safe, and the.most deli
cate use it most successfully, very few cure require
any other medicine, in Monte a little Castor 'Oil, or
Magnesia, is useful Ernie in the open ale, and
light food with ibis medic e, will always ensure a safe
and easy confinement.
HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
. _
Cosmetics, chalk, end a variety of preparations gen
erally in use, *hen appliad to the face, very soon spoil
it of its beauty. They clove the pores of the skin, and
check the circulation, which,Wilen nature is not tiaras
ed by disease or dowdcr._ orlL e-skin-inflamed the
alkalies used. in soaps, beautifies its own production In
the 'human face ',wins,' as welt as in the garden_ of
rich and delicately tinted and verigated flowers. A
free, active and healthy circulation - of the fluids or the
counting of the pure, rich blood to the extremities, is
Mit which imparts the indescelbable shades and Seab
ee of loveliness that ■ll admire, but mine can describe.
This beauty is the olTspring of nature—not of powder. or
soap. 11 there is not a free and healthy circulation
there is no beauty. If the lady is fair as driven CHOW,
if she paint and use cosmetics, and the blood IS thick
cold and impure, elle' is not beautiful. If she be brown
or yellow, and there is pure and active blood, it gives a
rich bloom to the cheeks, and a brilliaaey to their eyes
that is fascinating.
This It why the southern, and especially the Spanish
ladies, are so much admired. Ladies in the north who
take but little exercise, or are . cmillued In close rooms.
or have spOiled their completion by the application of
deleterious mixtures, If they wish to regain elasticity
of step, buoyant spirts, sparkling 'eyes and beautiful
complexions, they should use Dr. Townsend's Sorsa•
wills. Thousands who have tried It, are more than
satisfied, are delighted. Ladies of every station, crowd
our office daily.
NOTICE TO THE LADIES. •
Those that Imitate Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, have
Invariably called their stuff a grate remedy for females,
/se., &c.. and have copied our bills and circulars,
which relates to the complaints of women,' word for
word—other men who, put up medicine, have, since
the great sneers* of Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla in
complaints . incident to females, recommended'theirs,
although previously they did not. A number of these
Mixtures, Pills, &e., are injurious to females, as they
aggravate disease, and undermine the constitution.
[SCROFULA CURED.
- .
This certificate Canclustvely proves that this Sarsa
parilla has petfect control over the most Obstinate
eases of the Blood. Three person! cured in one house
is unprecedented:
, THREE .CHILDREN.
Dr. Townsend—Dear Slr: I have the pleasure to in
form you that three of my, children have been cured of
the Scrofula by thd use of your excellent medicine..
They were afflicted very severely with bad Sores; have,'.
taken only four bottles; it took them away, for which
I feel myself undergreat obligations.
Youri, respectfully.

MOST WONDERFUL CURE!
Penetrated with a deep sense of gratitude for'the

Syrup of Tar,ond 'hat others, who, like Me. have lan
totalled through - years of affliction and suffering, With
out being able to Said - avemedy. may know where tt can

About 4 years Otto, after being effected with a violent 1
cold it left me a troublesome and severe cough. Whilst
'the cough continued. which was, with scarcely any in
temnssion. during this long period, languag e faille to tell
what I have suffered-from debility, pains In the breast
and side, night swente,dldicult expectoratlon,opPressed
breathing, and, In fact. all those symptom which mart
a severe pulmonary affection. The relief occasionally
obtained by the discharge of the-matter which obstruct
ed the healthy action of my system. but increased my
fears, as the purulent matter discharged was frequently
streaked with blood.
During Onetime I wes under the treatment ofseyeral
physicians. and toot many of those preparations re
commended as servicible in the Mel of Others, but
without relief; and I, et length, concluded that a cure,
in my we, was hoPeless. But how agreeably changed
14 now my opinion ! lbave uied, for about three weeks,
ThOmpson's Compound Syrup of Tar. By the nee of
one bottle my rough has been relieved and my system
reinvigorated, and by continuing Its use up to this time,
I am satisfied that My complaint is entirely removed and
eradicated. IL Kneen vv. 242, S. Seventh street.

there hes been no suitable Primary Treatise on Arithmetic

contain a sufficient amount of raacricsi samtairric, as
vnll commonly occur in the transaction of ordinary bust;
ness—inore particularly in the Fereak Department of our
District Schools, many of whom seldom learn the use of
numbers as far as Reduction or Proportion; and as the
