It is Just what every fatally, vessel, steamboat,

is most likely to attack its subject to the night, and
the sooner the remedy is applied the better. Asiatic
Cholera is, in most cases, preceded by Diardicia,

one great reason why so many persons die of Chol

once procured a bottle of your agent, the use ol
which cured my cough entlrely,and I got well. My

Many yein of trial, Instead of impairing the pub

appreciation and notoriety by far eiceeding the most
sanguine expectations of its friends. Nothing but
Its intrinsic virtues andthi unmistakable benefit con
ferred on thoustinds of sutferers, could originate and
maintain the reputation it enjoys. White many Infe

every trial, conferred benents on the afflicted they
can never forget and produced cures LOO nouteroui
and too remarkable to be forgotten.
While it is a fraud on the public to pretend that any
one medicine will infallibly afte—dtill there is abun
dant proof that the Cogent Pecroasa does urn oaly
as a general thing, bet almost invatiably,cure the
maladies for which it is employed. ,
As timer:sakes these facts wider and better known,

The Pemocratic papers have all published
a letter represented by them to have been
'written by Gen. Scott in 1841. It was pub
lished lately in the New York Evening. Post.
M'r. William E. Robinson, of New 'York,
gives a statement tinder his own 'name, in
the New Yink, Tribune, that the letter, as
published, is a fraud and a forgery, and
challenges the editors of the Post to disprove
it. He bffered a wager of $-50 to test the
sincerity of his charge, by comparing a true
copy of the original letter, which was in
his hands, with the one published . by the
Post. The latter has not met this challenge.
.51r. R.'s statement is as follows :
" The Evening Post, of Saturday last. pub
lishes a letter written, I suppose, by acme
Locofoco,, -on the subject of " Nativism,"
which it attributes to Gen. Scott.
It is 'true that Gen. Scott, some ten years
ago. was asked his opinion concerning some
proposed changes in the naturalization laws,
to which he replied, suggesting, among oth
er things, that Irishmen, Germans, and oth
ers of foreigh birth, who served in the army
or navy,should be admitted to the privileges
of citizenship on a shorter term than that
now established by law (fire years), and
suggesting also other alterations to p revent .
illegal voting, fix., but distinctly ob jecting
to the organization of the " Native ' party,
then summed by the Lawfoco mob of the
Northern Liberties, Southwark, &T. He dis
tinctly took grounds against the anti-Cath
lie feature of to-
he movement, and refused to
recognize any organization which would
exclude naturalized citizens from the organ
ization.
This letter has never been published, but
some of its suggestions having become pub
lic, some enemy of Gen. Scott published
pretended extracts from it on the eve of the
Whig Philadelphia convention, in which
language never tesed by Gen. Scott was in
terpolated. The forgery was afterward en
larged and illuminated by typographical dis
play..and that double forgery is published as
genuine in the Post of Saturday.

are permitted to quote the following from a
letter received in-this city from a prominent
citizen 'of Indiana, who has always, acted
with the Democratic party, and been eleCted
by them to several responsible offices:
"I cannot and will not vo'e for Pierce—
and many of my neighbors are of my opin

they. Ours-is the second strongest Demo

"General Scott is known in every nook and
Omer of the nation. He is respected highly
ais a gentleman of the Old Virginia stamp ;
and as a commander he is inferior to no man
now in'the world. He has always upheld
the honor and dignity of his country, and
that in many trying stations, when demago
gues and paltry politicians could stand upon
the hill top, free from danger, and describe
the• battle, and boast that they. could conduct
ilbetter than be that mixed in the arife. Are
meta of sense to be led by such politicians?
I have meddled but little in politics for the last
eight years, but this campaign I intend to do
it. I will use my utmost exertions for Gen.
Scott, and I will even go so far as to stump
it, if necessary, if they assail him in an un

It is recorded of Dean Swift that he had
often been teaching his servant in vain to
close the littrart door,when she left the room.
One day she entered her master's study; and
requested permission to go to the marriage
of a friend a few miles into the country,
ivhich'was granted. The door as usual was
left open. Annoyed at this. the Dean per
mitted the girl to leave the house several
minutes, and then told another, servant to
follow. and say to her that her master wish
ed to speak with her. She reluctantly obey
ed the summons, and returning in great
haste. inquired What her master wished to
say. The Deanealmlv replied, uO, nothing

gen'iler, published at Washington, one of the
Jars papers, in point of character, ability
and age, in the country, we find the follow
lag truthful referince to the business of edit- '
lag a newspaper, which we commend to the
attention of the readers of the Journal:
Il Many people estimate• the ability of a
newspaper, and the industry and talent of its
editbr by the eaitorial matter it contains. It
is comparatively an easy task for a frothy
writer to pour out daily columns of words—
mores upon any and on all subjects. His
ides may flow in one , vishy washy ever
last mg flood, and his,Fommand - of language
may, enable him to string them together like
bun Ches of onions; and yet his paper may
be a meager and poor concern. But what is
the toil of such a man who displays his leading
atier largely, to that imposed- on a judici
us,: well.informed editor, wbo exercises his
v \ ocation with an hourly conseibusness of hie
respOosibilities and duties, and devotes him=
self to , the conduct of his paper with the
same care and assiduity that a sensible law
yer bestows upon a suit, or a humane phys
ic:aci upon a patient, without regard to show
or diSplay ! Indeed, the 'mere writing part of
editibg a paper is but a small portion, of the
work. The care, the time employed in se
lectitig, is far more important, and the tact
of a 'good editor better known by his select
ions nan anything else, and that we all know
is half the battle. Buts we have said an
editor ought to be estimated, and his labors
understood and appreciated by the general
con uct of his paper, its tone, its iemper,ffiv
unif nu consistent course, its principles-and
aim , its manliness, its dignit and prcrpriety.
