FROSF3SOTU&
OF THE
DAILY PEMBYLTANIAN
A DOUBLE SHEET MORtTIRO NEWSPAPER.
The ProprieloV df the Philadelphia "Daily
Pennsj/lvaniatt," in view of the Presidential
Election, has made ample arrangements tor
the improvement of that Journal in all its
various departments. A double sheet, con
sisting of eight pages of six columns each,
ptioled on good paper, with clear type, is
issued daily. No pains are spared to do lull
justice to every part of that paper. The lar
gest telegraphic news from all parts of the
country will be found in its oolumns; and at
great expense, talented correspondents from
whom highly interesting letters are received,
have been secured, not only in England,
Prance, Washington and New York, but in
many other parts of the country. Great at
tention is also paid to the monetary, com
mercial, and especially the shipping list de
partment of this Journal, as well as to the
local news of. the City. And while every
desirable feature of a Newspaper is thus en
grafted upon the Pennsylvania n, it wiU-con
linue with redoubled energy amrdetermina
tion to do battle !or the Cogaßtution and he
Union. s
The ediioriil condmsl of The Pennsylvanian
has met with get . <ii approval, on account
of thp fearlessness with which it assailed the
dangerous political h.-resies Introduced by an
organization acting ,n secret, and corrupting
the whole moral structure of society, Abo
liliomsm also, has found in The Penn<ylvani
un, an unrelenting enemy because the doc
trine is subversive of the rights of one portion
of our country.
That of course has been approved of by
our party, and intelligent citizens generally,
is attested by the prosperity of our estab
lishment. Our subscription has increased
fourlotd, and oar advertising is a still ureater
ratio. Already has our issue reached ten
thousand; and at our present late of progres
sion, belore the year 1855 shall have expired
ii will be double that number. The Propri
etor intends la spere no expense lo make
The Pennsylvanian one of the first journals of
lh - country in alt its departments, and in
this w ay mer.t the patronage of a deserving
public.
rite Opposition, fully aware of the tm
mense power and influence wielded by the
press, avail themselves of it to the fullest ex
tent. 'J lie circulation of their organs are in
creased by every possible means and trie
whole power of their or. anizalion is u<ed lo
accomplish that object. The speeches of
their disunion orators, and other incendiary
documents, are sown broadcast throughout
the land, and obtrusively (hurst into the hands
of every voter. Those who have so inucti
holier a causo lo advocate, and upon the suc
cess of wtiose labors rest (he durability ol the
very coiner stones upon which our happntss
is founded, —civil and religious liberty,—and
the perpetuation of the Union itself, should
not be lers active We appeal to the true
Democracy, and lo all Canslitution loving
citizens, to come forward and aid us in dis
seminntiug correct political information, and
exposing the nefarious designs of our antag
onists We appeal alike lo lite citizens of
the North, ami ol the South lo aid in the cir
culation of those ser.timer.ts, and support of
those measures, which are advocated by the
only National Tolilicat organization now in
existence.
' The Proprietor can already boast of a large
circulation iu the Southern States, and he is
uttxioue lo increase the number of his read
ers iu thai region, so that his hands may be
strengthened for coming cnofiicta against
those who are not only Ihe enemies ol the
South, but the enemies of all true men in
ever portion of (lie Confederacy. In Penn
st I van in, and the Northern and Western
States, an increased circulation of this journal
will do much as an antidote lo the poisonous
doctrine of lite Union-bating Black Republi
cans, and tyranical and corrupt Know Noth
ings. We therefore confidently calculate
upon the hearty cooperation of our political
Trientls to the extension of our circulation,
and feel confident that this appeal will not
be made to them in vaiq.

"NO SUCH WORD AS FAIL."
A RESISTLESS REMEDY.
NO LI,OWA\ S OINTMENT.
Circular to the Sick.
T| 1 H E first hospital suigeona and medical pub
J I'cista of Europe, admit the unparalleled
anti-inflammstory and healing prnpertisa nftbia
Ointment; governments sanction its Tl<e in
their naval and military asrv cea; and the mssrea
in this country and throughout the world repose
the utmost confidence in its curative propeities.
It penctiares the rouices of inflnmmation and
corruption which underlie the external eviden
ces of dicase, and neutralise the fiery elements
which feed and exasperate the malady.
RHEUMATISM. SCROFULA. ERY
SIPELAS.
These ate among the most terrible and ago.
niziug dia.asoa of the muscles, tbe fleshy fibre
and the skin; yet 111 their worst lbrm>, nnd
when seemingly incutnhle tltcy i>lvarin Id y die
appear under a persevering application of this
soothing, hesling antidote tn pain and iuflam
mation.
SALT RHEUM, FEVER SORES,
STIFF JOINTS.
In cases of Bait lihrum, where medical wii
tera, Inliojs, and every recipe or the pliarntaco
poeu have proved useless, the Ointment will
accomplish a thorough cure. Fever Bores heni
quickly under iia influence, and its relaxing ef
fect upon conlractuJ sinews is truly xvonderlul.
DISCHARGING ULCERS.
A MOAT remarks tile ar.d happy change is pro
duced in the appearance of malignant ulcers
after a few applications of ibis Ointment. The
surrounding redness vanishes, and granules of
healthy flesh begin to lake (he place of the dis
charged matter. 'I his pre cess goes on more or
less rapidly, until the orifice is filled up with
sound ipaterial and the ulcer radically cured.
A WORD TO MOTHERS.
The young ore the most frequent sufferers
from external injuries, and therefore every
mother should have ih's healing preparation
constantly on baud. It is an absolute specific
for sore hreusts, and quickly removes tbe en
crusted sores which someitmcs disfigure the
beads and faces of children.
SIGNIFICANT FACTS,
'This Ointment is universally used on boatd
T K E Altai tic and Pacific whaling fleet as a cure
for scorbutic affections and as the best possible
remedy for wounds and bruises. Large supplies
oHt have recently tieen ordered by the Sultan
of Tuikey for hospital purposes.
Both the Ointment and Pills should be
used in the following cases :
ounions, Skin Diseases,
Durno, Swelled Glands,
Chapped Hands, Sore I.egs,
Chilblains, Soro Bicasls,
Fistula, Sore Hernia,
Gout. Sore Throat a,
