This Dye is in the form of a Powder which in plaih matter
of fact may be applied to the hair over night, the first.
night turning the lightest or grey hair to dark brown; and
by repeating a second or third night, to a jet black. Any
lsersou may, therefore. with the least possible trouble,
keep his halt any dark shade or a perfect black, with the
positive assurance that the powder if applied to the skin
will not color it. There is no culturing in this statement,
as any one may easily test. These facts are warranted
by the chemist who manufactures It.
For sale at TUTTLE'S, 86 Fourth Street, where a
large assortment of Patent Medicines may always be had
at either wholesale or retail.
TO TIFF, PUBLIC, and particularly to my former
patrons of this city:--Having retired from the
Practice of Medicine, 1 may be permitted to may. that it
has fallen to the lot of tut few persons to have enjoyed
so liberal or large a share of obstretriral practice as sty
own has been for the last 30 or 40 years.
The experience of that long period of active life,and the
fact of my having been twice, since 1830. associated with
Dr. R. A. Wilson, in the practice of medicine, /in both a
period of five yearn.) enables me to judge fulty of the
merits of his pills.
So convenientoo efficient. and yet so safe; did I esteem
these pills, that for the last five yeats in my practice for
the cure of chronic diseases, of whatever name, and those
of females in particular, II have used more of them than
all other medicines.
Like every other medicine, this must fail in some in
stances, but In my hands there has been less disappoint.
tnent and more satisfaction in the administration of this
one remedy than of ail others; its good effects sometimes
quite astonishing mr.
• If my patient required a safe aperient medicine either
wrore or after parturition, the Vtllson's pi Is were just
the thing I wanted.
If a dyspeptic acid condition of the stomach, combined
wit hi costiveness or inactivity of tite liver. constituted thh
disease of my patient. the pills were just the thing I
wanted.
If I treated a case requiring an emnvenagogue, the
Wilson's pills were just the thing. I warded.
If palpitation, headache, flushed countenance, or other
difficulties, indicating a disturbance of the circulatory
and secretory systems, annoyed my patient at the 'turn
of life,' the Wilson's pills werejust the thing I wanted.
Thus, without resp.:.et to the name, a disease might
happen to wear at the time I have had It tinder treat•
ment, particular indications or symptons arising, were
Edways mat promptly and most happily met by the
Wilsou's pills.
That so great a number ordiseases, and sometimes ap.
parently opposite ones, in which 1 have used these pills,
should be cuted more readily by them than by any other
remedy, may at first seem strange and contradictory, but
why it is so is as clear to my mind as that a great many
persons should become thirsty from ns man! , different
causes. and yet all require that common and greatest of
all blessings, water to quench their thirst;
In conclusion, it is‘ue the reputathin of the medicine
and the public, to say decidedly and unconditionally, that
the Wilson's pills are theonly combination I have ever
met with in my longeonrse Of practice, that really nos.
earesanything curattveor specific for sick headache-

The able and patriotic speech of Mr. 13u

ington City Spectator, having draMi up `-`
on him an attack from the federal Oat&
which revives the stale charge of opposi.
ticn to the !ale war, justice to that gentle.% Y .
man demands that the facts upon which
this allegation is founded, should be fairls
)
stated.
At the declaration of wAr, Mr,..arestelolllllllllllllll
an had not attained the age of mahoodi
and he naturally imbibed the sentiments
4 1
of those by whom he had been reared and
instructed. Brought up a Fedetalist, his
associationS had all been with the party
opposed to the commencement of hoStili ,
ties with Great Britain, mpst of whern be
lieved that we had as strong grounds of
complaint against France, or that the
grounds of going to war with England
were a:. Jet exaggerated. Notwithti
standing theseilritcrns,..and his •
and political associations, w ten war watt
actually declared, Mr. Buchanan adoptecr
the patriotic sentiment, 'Our country, right
of wrong."—Accordingly, when the news
of the capture of Washington reichett.,
Lancaster, we find him urging a vigorous;
prosecution of hostilities in an address to
his fellow citizens, and enrolling hitt:welt
In a company of `volunteers, Which Inaicir• -

'T 'December, 1814, Mr. Buchanan to(ls
his seat in the Legislature of Pennsylvti,
nit. Simon Snyder, the distinguished
republican and patriot, Was then Gover
nor; and in his opening message. spoke
of the 'undisguised hostility manifested in
the Eaelern section of the Union, apihst
the measures adopted ot,-;proposed'for the
preservation of our tig111,77-mitional and
individual. HoweVer, We may regret
(said he) or disapprove-cif such unnatnral
and unjustifiable dispositions and deport-1
went, we are not now called upon to.leg4
islate or act upon them; if %I e were, I am.
Sure the constituted authorities and peon
ple of PennsylVania, would unitedly rally
round the Union, and put doskri tht3
machinations of all disorganizers, and exst,
ecute the laws upon all traitors who should
dare to take up arms against our hap
Union and set at naught the Cionstitstion i ,
which is hallowed by the name of Wash.
ington !' Mr. Buchanan, throughout the
entire session, co-operated cordially and
efficiency with the Evecutive in every
measure of defence and annoyance against
the enemy. In January, 1815, he gave
his vote for William Findley, the Demo
cratic candidate for State Treasurer, who
`was particularly obnoxious to the Feder.

adherettee to the doctrines of Jetfersonian
Republicanism.
In the summer of 1815, Mr. Buchanan
was requested- by the Washington Benev
olent Society of Lancaster to deliver an
oration on 'he 4th of July, and from this
address, uttered six month after the ter— ••
mivation of the .var, was culled the extract
exhibited, as alt that history has recorded
of his course during the time that tried
men's patriotism. Even in this address,
though a great deal is evidently yielded to
the opinions of those by whom he was
surrounded, there is much of sound Dem
ocratic doctrine inculcated.
At the ensuing session of the Legisla
ture, Mr, Buchanan took strong ground
against the expediency and constitutintrel.
ity of a Bank of the United States, Whlc h
he has unswervringly maintainedefor More
than a quarter of a century, daring all

prominent members of the Republican
party, as well as one of the ablest defer].
ders of Democt atic princijoles and policy.
A man is not responsible for the opinions,
in which he was, in a manner, born, and
bred; but for those pi inciples which, after
mature deliberation, he has chosen for
himself.
ELOQUENCE.—Here is a speech in the
Indiana State Sentinel, and, like many
tither speeches, we do not know exactly
what to 'mike of it. Mr. Parker May have
been serious in his endeavor to use the
techtiteditties of nauticals, 'but the lei's—
applications are so constant and so very
curious, that the wl.ole thing lobka like's
burlesque got up with much preparation.
But ether way. it is funny enough for
those who have chanced to sail. the salt
sea ocean, and who in their time, have
`run afloat to at cure the cook's stove.'
"The 'able and very talented' member
from Henry county rather stuck the whole
world by an anecdote which be attempt
,ed to relate as a sea fight. 'What would
you do,' said Mr. P. 'if you supposed
yourself engaged with two ships of war?'
(We don't know whether .he meant the
speaker, in propria persona, or whether
he supposed himself on board of another
'ship or Wan') 'What would you 'do, sir,
when you beard the orders 'man the helm;
t rur , aloft and secure the cook's stover...-.
What, sir, when you heard his honor the
midshipman telling you to 'hear away from
the lee head; and ti ice up the swohalk—
Why, sir, the loco focos put me in mind
of the spanker boom of the round house;
they are all of them afraid to go aloft and
man the big guns; while we, the Whigs,
ate aloft on the bias, these men are skulk
ing in the main top, behind the capstan;,
they look down on the royst yard when,
we go to fire; but when we are ready-`
yru, sir, when we•are ready, sir; they
dodge their beads under .the garbokri4
