RZOVLAR TOA3III.
I. The day we celebrate—The era of
our country ' s regeneration. May the time
soon come when all the nations oir.the
earth shall hail it as theirs.
2. The memor7 of Washington—Let
him Who hill to cherish It with holy rev
erencedtte driven from society as a social
Pariah—a moral leper, in whose foul con.
tact there is disease and death.
3. The Army and Navy—The ocean
and the lakes, the hills, and valleys of the
United States, the plains of Canada, the
valleys of Mexico and the Rio Grande,
and the deserts of California have witness
ed their exploits and illustrated their re
nown. May the country ever cherish
them with grateful pride.
4. The American volunteers—Their
prompt organization and gallant conduct
in the battle-fields of Mexico have shown
that in the citizen soldiery of the country
is a tower of strength." Peace to the
ashes of the departed brave. Honor and
gratitude to the gallant survivors..
5. Our Country, first, last, and all the
lime-410th to' one common heritage of
liberty, may we never, like the prodigal,
squander it away.
6. The founders of our republic—Hav
ing laid its foubdations in wisdom, they
reared the superstructure amid suffering
and danger, and then cemented it with
their blood. May the arm he withered
that would wrest one stone from the pile.
7. The Union of the States—The arch
on which prosperity and freedom rest.
May it ever be found the more firmly
compacted the stronger the pressure!,
8. Party Spirit—Like fire, a good ser
vant but a bad master. Under proper res

unrestrained, it becomes a fatal contlagra
thin.

altar of American freedom. May it soon
become a blaze which shall consume the
last relics of tyranny.
10. The Freedom of - the Press—ln

liberty, which, like the Roman Capitol
amidst the ashes of the surrounding city,
will be impregnable to all assaults, al
though4ll her outworks should be strewed
in ruins around her.
11. Education—lts true theory, not the
education of a few, that they may lead the
mass, but that of the masses, so that each
in his turn may be qualified to lead.
12. Agriculture, Manufactures, Com
merce, and the Mechanic Arts—The sin
ewe of a nation's strength. May they
never be relaxed or broken.
13. Woman—ln childhood our protec

companion, and in old age our stay—
May every joy of lifii depart,
But give, oh, give me woman's heart;
Let all the hopes of earth remove,
But leave, oh, leave me woman's love.
VOLUNTI SR tOA3TB.
By .1. B. McPherson: Sectional parties,

Character of Gen. Taylor,
LOCOPOCO TEBTIMONY.
The New York Courier and Enquirer
says. the name of Gen. Perrifer F. Smith,
of Tampico, is familiar to the whole coun
try, as belonging to one of the most distin
guished officers of our army in Mexico.—
He served and won laurels under General
TAYLOR in the Florida war; and again at
Monterey under the same gallant officer,
he acquired new laurels. But the crown
ing act of his military career, was his
splendid, and successful assault upon the
enemy at Contreras. lie is an out and
out Locofoeo ; bat he is a gentleman as
well as a soldier; and he thus writes to
his friend in New Orleans in regard to
Gen. Taylor. Testimony from such a
source should convince even the most ultra
friend of other candidates that the Nation
al 'Convention did wisely in selecting Gen..
Tavt.ox as the standard bearer of the Whig
Party : .
O ITV sair Max !co. April 18. 1848.
* * Any one who has visited this
country must have a horror of bad govern
ment, for here is seen the spot on earth
most favored by nature, stripped of all its
advantages rod converted into a hell by the
vices and corniptions of its rulers.
I have great faith in our own people,
however; they show their high sense of
honesty and nobleness.
Gen. Tatman's military exploits are
not the causes of his popularity ; they are
only the occasions for the display of his
sound judgment, energy of character, lofty
and pure sense ofjustice, and incorruptible
honesty. Ile has as much reputation for
what he has written, as for what he has
done, because even where the composi
tion is not his own, the sentiments, mo
tives and feelings are ;:and every thing he
does, is marked by the purity and loftiness
of his own character. -
I have never heard of any one, however
corrupt or base himself, that, after five
minutes conversation with Gen. Taylor,
has dared to propose, or even hint at, any
thing dishonest or mean. And no inter
course in the ordinary events of common
life, can give the true of the loftiness
of his character. I remember you asking
me at the time he was put in command at
Corpus Christi, whether he was equal to
the einitinistances. I told you of his
sound judgment and inexhaustible energy
as I had learned them in Florida, but I did
nut then estimate properly the other and
higher points of his character. In the cam
paign on ths Rio Grande, I saw him tried
under all circumstances, and he always
came out pure gold.
His profession that he will be the candi
date of no party will, if he be elected, be
carried out in his practice--not that his
opinions on matters of policy may not be
those of one or other party—on most of
these he is a If and he is not the man
to act adverse to his own opinions ; but
no party management or power can ever
lead him to do a mean, or what he thinks
a wrong thing.
As soon as (4en. Taylor was furnished
by events with the opportunity to display
his character, you see that it was estimated
properly at once, and 1 come back to the
truth of the position I started with, that 1
believe the people will always measure
great men.
Ido not say they will always reward
them properly, for they cannot always
give a direct cipression to their feelings,
and the least worthy
.may have the vote
without having the wish.
There hes a great error bean committed
in relation •to Gen. Scott : noinilitary ope
rations in history have displayed more
military guiditieLor been more successful
in their results. Nor have they been in
any case the result of chance; everything
has been done in conformity with a plan,
and the event in all eases has been almost
predicted. That a successful General
should be degraded in the very scenes of
success, for complaints made not of him,
but by hint, is exceeding strange, and most
nofonunate. Every one in the army
(eels it as a.diagrace. •, • • • •
Your sincere Mend,

A "Fans Son." Lirrtea,—Hon. John
M. Niles, the retiring Senator of Cornice -

era of New York, in' favor of the principle
that Free Terrifory must not become Slave

be introduced and sustained where it does
not exist by the direct ageney and authority
of the Federal Government It is no longer
a piste institution- only ~ but becomes a part
of the Federal eyetooth Asa State imititu

THE FOURTH war very generally commem
orated in Genyaburg. The day was beautiful and
end pleasant, and every one seemed disposed to
;tithe the wait of it. Its dawn was ushered In by
the beating of drums, firing of guns, and other
demonstrations of joy, and during the entire day
the Stotts and places of business were closed.—
The !.Gettys Lodge Band," under Prof.th Lissy! a,
was also out at an early hour, and gave our citi

a mile from town, to partake of a Dinner served
up by Mr. &tan Sasses. A report of their do

Rock creak, and another on Marsh creek; the pro

Sabbath School spent the day in the gross near

"GENERAL TM PLOIL
The, undersigned whose names are
affixed to the card hereto appended,
make this publication at the special in
stance and request of Gen. Zachary Ta}•'
for himself. From sundry articles trhich
have appeared in several of the public
journals of the city of New Orleans, Gen.
Taylor is given to understand that persons
efsimierie speak foritimi . haes produced ,
the impression that he is pet staiistied with
what Judge Saunders, and theother mem
bers of the Louisiana Delegation to the
Whig National Conveution who acted
with him, saw fit to say and do in that
body in his (Gen. Taylor's) behalf; and
that he repudiates such sets and seyings.
Did these rumors and reports affect only
himself, Gen. Taylor would not trouble
the public concerning them; but as they
affect. whether so intended or not, the good
report and candor of gentlemen whose par
tiality for him :has made them objects of
reproach and suspidion, he feels constrain
ed by a sense of duty and justice to au
thorize them to be met by a distinct and
peremptory denial.
A Card.
We are authorised by Gen, Taylor*,
say that the course of the Louisiana Dele
gation in the Whig Convention, lately as
aemlilcil at Philadelphia, meets with his
entire, full and unequivocal approbation.
That he had

but never intimated a doubt that his honor
and reputation were safe in their hands.

This card was read on the previous evening to
the prat Whig ratification meeting, and gave
great satisfaction, especially u it wow announced
to he in the hand-writing of the old Oeneml him

THE NORTHERN MAN WfTH SOUTH
ERN PRINCIPLE :i.—Lewis Cass, in his letter
of acceptance, says he has "ratrfolly rout the MAU
luiiona of the Democratic National Convention,
laying down the platform of our political faith,"
and that he "adheres to them 1086,,,i1g as he up
prorta of :hem radially." Now, what is this plat-
form The resolution relative to the Protective
Policy is a. follows:
ReSolved, That the. fruits of the great
political triumph of 1841,, which elected
James K. Polk and George M. Dallas,
President and Vice President of the Uni
ted States," (says one of the resolutions,)
"have fulfilled the hope of the Democracy
of the Union—in the noble impulse given
to the cause of Free Trade by the repeal
of the Tariff of 1842, and the creation of
the more equal. honest and productive Ta
ri of 1946." ttc.
Here, then, we ha% a part of thel,Ocnforocreesl,

upon the industrial intement of the country--of
oppostlion to the Frey Labor of the North.
I - P - The 'NIKO° Republic, • New York Barn

Olt of the annexed pointed paragraph :
Keep it before the People,
That Lewis Case is opposes' to Harhor
improvements, and is in favor of the ex
tension of tilavery ; that he was for and
against the annexation of Texas ; that he
was the apologist and defender of Louis
Philippe, and the reviler of the French
republicans ; that he intrigued to defeat
the nomination of Martin Van Buren, in
1841, and that he is not entitled to the sup
dont of the N. York Democracy.
PREPARING FOR IT.—The membeni :of
Mr. Cabinet are already huntingout berths

LOCOFOCO TEtsTIMONY —A Loitethco

1 H 17, assembled at New Berlin, to the number of
about 400, and unanimously adopted the hillooing
reradutions complimentary of Gen. TA T LOW The

The prominent position occupied by the eubject of
the sketch in recent political movements, invests
it with some interest
"Mr. Van Buren is now about 35 year*
ef age—in the bloom of his manhood and
his intellect. Since Wm. H. Crawford
was hurried into a too early and untimely
grave, no man at the same age has enjoyed
such a poeition beliire the country. Of
course he has enemies—many and bitter.
That is a part of his character. But he
has troop., devoted, enthusiastic, and ef
ficient. Among : the yOl/0 4 men . of the
State. without distinction of party, his pop
ularity is unbounded. They are proud of
his courage, his talents, and his unewerr
ing loyalty to his friends. In this last
quality, he is a genuine chip of the old
block. Singularly unlike his father in
ninny of his prominent characteristics, he
resembles him in his fidelity to his friends.
That he carries to the utmost. He never
shrinks from them, though to stand by
them is certain ruin. His friendship has,
in that respect, the devotion of the deeper
feeling of which the poet speaks :
"Through the furnace, unehrinking, the Were ni
pursue,
And shield thee, and save thee, or perish there
• • He is the life of the social circle:
The wine does not sparklo brighter than
his wit, and his is the joke that is sure to
set the table in a roar.
H is style of speaking is strongly marked.
Endowed by nature and education with
coolness and self-possession that are im
perturbable, and, at times, perfectly,superb,
he has the habit of saying his most bitter
thinks without apparent effort, and'all
unconsciously. With the smoothest vole*
and blandest air, he drops urcasms that
rankle forever. This is one quality that
makes him unequalled in debate.
His personal appearance is striking.—
He is tall and slender, with a stoop not
ungraceful in one of his height, and a gait
which, like his sarcasm, is as unstudied
and and spontaneous as possible. The
head, however, is the man. In any
company (uncovered) it would strike the
moot careless 'observer. It is perfect in.
its way, and is a type of its class. Tho•
features small and finely formed—the quick
well cut nostrill—theelear, keen eye—the
firm upper lip—it is, altogether, a face anti
head fell of rare beauty and expreiaios:'

GIN. JACKSON AND MARTIN VAN FIVRRN.
At the Utica ConventiOn Benj. F Butler
promised to publish extracts (ruin a letter
written to him by Gen. Jackson after the
election of Mr. Polk. It is accordingly
given to the Evening Post, and the follow
ing paragraph is worthy a place, as a mat
ter of political history. It seems the Gen
eral had more confidence in Mr. Van Bu
ren than the recent Loco Convention, for
he prophecies that Van Buren will be Polk's
successor :
, HERurraor., June 24, 1844
"I cannot hope to be alive and witness
the acclamation with which the people of
the United States will call Mr. Van Buren
to the presidency, at the expiration of Mr.
Yolk's term ; but yon will, and I know
you will rejoice at it, as the consummation
of an act of justice, due alike to him and
to the honor and fame of the country. I
am thus consoled for what would other

on the superintending care of the Almighty

REIURKABLE FATALITY.—We learn that
another child of Mr. Francis Wentzell, of
Harpers-Ferry, died last week, making the
third within as many weeks ; and that on
Friday evening, Mr. W. had, just left
the supper table, and seated himself on
the porch, when a noise was heard as
though of some one falling, and on rushing
to the spot Mr. Wentzell was found to be
(lying—living only a moment or two after
wards. Mr. W. had been in delicate
health, but the sudden deaths of his chil
dren are as yet involved in mystery.—
Thus have four members of one family
been cut off in the course of a few weeks!
Mrs. W. and an infant are all that survive
of a family of six when the month came
in.
Mr. W. wan a highly respected citizen.
and his death is a severe IdniCiioll to his

hawing sufficient strength in the Nainral Course
of the System, to expel lime matters or humors
which hare become useless, and whose detention
must produce injury to the organism. For in

upon the blood ; duo blood thus clogged in its cir
culation. remedies the evil by throwing the impur
ities which should have passed by the skin, upon
the organs of the stomach and bowels. Now if
the stomach and bowels aro very healthy and
strong, they expel the humors which the checked
perspiration caused to bo retained in the body,
and no harm is done. But, tithe stomach and
bowels do not happen to be in this healthy condi
tion—if, for instance, the hostels should be in a
costive or bound state, the matters of their own as
well as those received from the occasion of check
ed perspiration, are agaln - taken up by the blood;
and this Fluid of Life may be so impeded as to
produce apopleey or paralysis; or it may become
quicker in its circulation, and fever be the result.

then inflammation of the brain: If an injury has
been done in time past to the body, and Site part
where such was done continues weak, then Aar
purl will be afflicted. If Asthma has ever been •
prevailing complaint, it will show itself again.—
Those who have been ninth troubled with Fever
and Ague will be again affected by it, or some in
termitting Fever will take its place. If it be a
child, then the Measles, Whooping Cough, Small
Pox or Scarlet Fever may be expected. The Im
purities which are striving to get out, but aro not
able without assistance will produce that form of
disease which the person having those impurities
in him, is most susceptible to receive.
'Now all these dangers and difficulties con be
prevented, and the long and certain 'blame,
ffy assisting Nature in the outset with a good
Jose of the BRANDRETH PILLS. This is
• fact, well understood to be so by thousands of
our citizens 'Phis medicine, if taken so as to .
purge fieely, will surely core any curable disease.
There is no form or kind of sickness that it does
not exert • curative influence upon. Then, by
their power in resisting putrefaction, they cure
Measles, Small Pox, Worms, and all contagious
fevers. There is not a medicine in the world so
able to purify the mass of the blood and restore it
to a healthy condition as the Brandreth Pills—
This makes them so valuable in curing all kinds
of chronic diseases, as Erysipelas, Salt Rheum,
Scold Head, White Swellings, Sore Eyes, and re
cent or Chronic enlargement of the Glands or
otherwise. Perhaps the Brandreth Pills are one
of the sumo powerful remedies in nature for the
cure of Rheumatism and old diseases of the skin
and hones; for they open and penetrate into the
inmost recesses of the body, and drive out all ma
lignant humors. They dissolve coagulated blood,
and cure inflammations of all kinds, whether of the
bowels, of the lungs, or of ether parts of the body.
Their power is so great over the brain and the
nertes, that Palsies and convulsions, (both in
mother and child,) and insanity are cured by them.
In fact, let any one suffering from sickness use
them and be curred. They are a medicine which
have to be used to be appreciated. By their use
alone, all Chronic diseases could soon be banished
froin among us. Those whose prejudices will
permit them, will find the BRA N DRETH PILLS
a great blaming to them and to their

FOR THE CAMPAIGN.
11:7•1in order to place the "STAR AND
BANNER" within the reach of every
Whig in the county during the present
campaign, which promises to be one <dun
usuil interest, it will, be furnished to Clubs
from the present time until the election is
determined in November next, at the low
rate of
FIFTY CENTS PER COPY,
payable invariably in advance. Any per
son procuring us five subscribers and for
warding the money, shall be furnished
with a copy gratis.
The prioe at which we offer the "STAR
AND BANNER," will barely cover the
expense of its issue. Our object is to
benefit the Whig cause, and not to make
money for durselves. We hope, therefore,
that alt who have the interest of that cause
at heart will aid us in giving an extended
circulation to our paper. If every subseri
her who reads this were to look around
him and secure but one more, our list
would be doubled. Try it, friends
Although ,more than usual attention will
be paid to political matters during the
campaign, the large size of the paper will
enable us to do so without infringing upon
the news and miscellaneous department,
so that subscribers, besides being rendered
familiar with current political movements,
will receive a weekly digest of the new!
of the day, *ith - other useful matter.
p 7 It is desirable that clubs for the
campaign be forVirarded as Booties pessi
ble, and our hien& are requested th aid in
forming them at an early day.
