Da. GEo. H. KE'iSER .---I became ameted with
Piles about twenty years ago, and every year
they were growing worse, so as to trouble me
very much, so much so at times as to unfit rue
for work. Sometimes I was so bad that I could
not do anything on account of them, they came
out on me as largo as a hickory nut I had tried
a great deal of medicine for them. i used to buy
and take whatever I could hear of or read of in
circulars and pamphlets that tell in my way, but
I couid.not get cured, sometiine:, they would do
me some good for a little while, but afterwards
they would return again as bad as ever. I also
applied to two Doctors Who visited me at my
house andgave me some medicine but it ivn:upi

got en advertisement of your Lindsay's Blood-
Searcher, made by yourself—when you sold it to
me you told me one bottle would not cure me,
and that my whole system would have to be re
neWed by the medicine before I got well. I
bought one bottle and took it home with me and
used it according to your directions. 1 then cail-

NOTICE TO ALL CONCERNED.—
Among a certain class of self-important peo
ple there is a peculiar feeling of contempt attach
ed to all physicians that advertise and treat the
diseases named in this card. IPRIVATF.DISE.ASES,)
why this should be, they nor no one else can tell.
Are t het not aware that all physicians treat ins
eases of . es cry denomination, in fact solicit just
the very diseases that are so obnoxious to these
very relined parties. I suppose they would not
let one of their family go to a party that has de
voted years for their benefit, because he adverti
ses the fact. and their family physician says he is
a humbug so he can get the case. Often he has
almost deprived the party of his life. He comes
at last to the physician that advertises—how else
are they to know t Are they not aware that Sir
Astley Cooper. Sir Benjamin Brodie, Sir Charles
Ball and M. Paid Riconl devoted years in the
treatment of these diseases t These men are held
up as shining lights In the medical world ; I don't
assert that all men are worthy that publish, still
there are a great number of them that arc. 1 have

every young man and woman to be careful in se

majority of Congress k opposed, and, so
far as the elections of the past year can

ment, that majority is sustained by the
people. It is true that new questions
have arisen in the progress of war as to
its mode of conduct and object, and have
produced ce.ntlict of opinion among the .
people. But on the question of peace--

many of its leading and most influential

that a common Government, based on
"the consent of the governed," over sep- ,
finite political communities, with diversi-
fled habits, manners, customs and insti- '
tutions, can be restored and maintained
by the sword, without the abandonment
of a federal anti its conversion into an
imperial and centralized Government. 1
So thought not the President of the
United States or the Secretary of State
on the 10th of April, 1861, before war I
had begun, and to my mind such an idea
is a delusion and a mere chimera. I i
have also the fixed opinion and belief;
that the life of a nation depends upon
the preservation of its liberties, and not 1
upon the extent of its dominion. Stand- I
ing therefore almost alone in this body, I

ter and spirit of the Constitution,
,n4(12
a precedent which, in'tny , judknient,'"fs

this
I circumstances, with my construction of
the Constitution, having held the seat, I
• I am bound to submit to your judicial
de
cision as to the validity.of the act of July,
1882, and have therefore taken the oath
it prescribes. I cannot doubt that the
precedent now made will be followed,.
and yet I regard all test-oaths as useless
and demoralizing acts of tyranny. It
has been as truly as beautifully said by
a brilliant and distinguished advocate:
"They are the first weapons young op
pression learns to handle; weapons the
more odious, since, though barbed and
poisoned, neither strength nor courage
is necessary to wield them."
With a firm conviction that your deci
sion inflicts a vital wound upon free rep
resentative Government, I cannot, by
continuing to hold the seat I now occu
py under it, give my personal ossent and
sanction to its propriety. To do so, I
must forfeit my own self-respect and sae- ,
rifice my clear conviction of duty for the I
sake merely of retaining a high trust and
1 station with its emoluments. That will
I never do but, retiring into private life,
shall await, I trust with calmness and
firmness, though certainly with despond
ency, the further progress of a war which
it is apparent to my vision will in its mn
tinuance subvert republican institutions,
and sever this Federal Union into many
arbitrary Governments.
Among these, wars for dominion will
arise and continueuntill, - from exhaust
ion, the different divisions subside into
seperate nationalities, leaving not the
vestige of a republic remaining. If the
lessons of history be not deceptive and
valueless, such will be the inevitable re
sult of protracted war; for a single Cc.m
tralized Government over so vast a terri
tory, inhabited by so intelligent mid en-
ergetic a people, could it be organized
through military genius and power, and
be successful for the hour, would not out
live the generation in which it was estab
lished.
I close these remarks with the language
in which a historian of the Constitution
so eloquently portrays the universal sen
timent of the American people (alas how
changed now) at the time of its adoption,
and the meat object they intended to ac
complish in thus cementing more firm
ly a Federal Union.
"They beheld that refrablicah a)id con
stit ati,,ital liberty which 11 ith all that it
comprehends and all it bestows was not
only altogether lovely in their eyes, but
without which there could be no peace,
no social order, no tranquility, and no
,af,ty for them and their posterity.
" This liberty they knew must be pre
served. They loved it with a passionate
devotion. They had been trained for it
through a long and exhausting war.
"Their habits of thought and action,
their cherished principles, their hopes, 1
their life ae a people, were all hound up in
.t ; and they knew that if they suffered it
to be lost there would remain for them
nothing but a heritaga of shame and ages 1
I of confusion, strife and sorrow. "
Antecedents of Treason.
Some years ago, when Abolitionism
t*_pronnr_was confined chiefly to the New
ririgiand isa - ttateria ;AL-is - / - Aarsc.4.a.a
Ohio, Mr. Hale, of New Hampshire pre
sented a petition for a dissolution of the
U ni,,n between the free and slave States.
At that time Messrs. Seward and Chase
were senators, and on the question of re
ception voted in the affirmative with
Hale—the only votes at that time in the
Senate in favor of dissolving the Union.
The Albany Argieß furnishes an interest
ing abstract of proceedings on the occa
sion. The prayer of the petition was as
• follows :
"They believe that the Federal Consti
tution, in giving its support to slavery,
violated the Divine (higher) law, and
makes war upon human rights, and is in
consistent with republican principles; and
that the attempt to unite slavery and free
dom in one body politic has already
brought upon the country great and man
ifold evils, and has fully proved that no
such Union can exist but by the sacrifice
of freedom to the supremacy of slavery.
They respectfully ask Congress to pro
pose, without delay, some plan for the
immediate and peaceful dissolution of the
American Union."
When this treasonable petition was
presented, a spirited debate followed, du
ring the course of which Gen. Cass said:
"This petition asks us to dissolve this
Union. I shall vote for rejecting it; and
if there were any other mode by which
our indignation at such a wicked and
foolish proposition could be more power
fully expressed, I should adopt it with
pleasure. * * *
The constitutional object of the right of
petition is "declared to be the redress,of
grievances. Instead of a valuable right,
an application to Congress to do what it
cannot do, reduces it to a farce, and is
calculated to bring the right itself into
contempt.. If we have no power to grant
the prayer of the petition, why should
such a petition be received?"
After concurring with General C, the
great expounder, Daniel Webster said:
"I think the substance of this petition
is such that, to be appropriate, it should
have had a preamble in these words:
"Gentlemen, Members of Coagries;
Whereas, at the commencement, of this
session, you and each of yon took your
solemn oath, in the presence of God, and
on the Holy Evangelists, that you 'would
support the Constitution of the United
States; now, therefore, we pray you to
take immediate steps to break up the
Union and overthrow the Consttiutonof
the United States as soon as you can.
And, as in duty bound, we will ever
pray."
Farther in the course of the debate
General Case indignantly remarked:
"Would you receive a petition asking
Congress to declare that there was no
God, and to pass a law prohibiting the
people of the United States from assemt
bling for the purposes of religious wor
ship ? Would you refer such a petition
—as Mr. Seward proposes to refer this—
with grave instructions to report the ex—
istence of a God, and to add their feeble
evidence to the testimony upon that sub
ject which is found equally in the book
of nature and in the book of Revelation,
and which is with us and around 11s from
the cradle to the grave ?"
The schernethen begun by these men
has at last ripened into civil war, and the
spirit which then proclaimed itself for
disunion is still rife and active as ever.
Tan only classes to be exempt from
the draft are said to be the following :
