POLITICAL HISTORY.
The Northern mail brings as the following letter of
*equity, to which we shall reply with all the frankness
Sind sincerity demanded by the occasion:
Aworc, Livingston Co., N. Y.,
February 24, 1844.
ie. L. Slone, Esq.,
SIR—For the purpose of settlin. , a subject of debate

for the Presidency. is opposition to Mr Madison?
And what were Mr Clinton's views in relation io the

iiestion. Your answer to the above will much oblige
Many friends. I am, very tirrsm.ifully,
ISAAC WELLS.
ANSWER.
We prefer giving a public answer to the foregoing
communication, made, we doubt not, in good faith,
for several reason. Principal aithong these is the
strong desire we have that justice shbuld be done to all
men, and we think that Mr Van Buren has not been
Stirly dealt b y in the matters referred to. It is true,
that Mr Van Buren was one of the early supporters
of Mr Clinton for the office of President in the year
1812, in opposition to Mr Madison, that he took part
in the republican legislative caucus of which Mr C.
was first nominated. That caucus was held, and that
nomination was made, on the 28th . of May, nearly a
month before the declaration of war. The elections
in this state were then held in April, and the political
year commenced en the first Monday of July. Mr Van
Buren had been chosen to the Senate in April. but was
not, of course, a member of tho Legislature that made
the nomination. His Senatorial term commenced on
the first Monday of 'July; and he first took his seat at
the extra session held in November. to choose the
Presidential Electors.
Furthermore, it is also true, that Mr ,Clinton be
tants the candidate Of "the peace party." Yet it is
not true that he was originally nominated as suclt,er
that Mr Van Buren, after taking his seat in the Le
gislzture , supported him as such. He (Mr C.) was,
in fact, driven into that position by the force of
circumstances; and it is no more than justice to Mr
Van Buren to say [kat after Mr Clinton became
identified with the peace party as their candidate,
his support of him became languid.
indeed, we have reason to believe that he thenceforth
'threw his influence, as far as he could do so. con tid-
ering the previous committal of the legislative caucus,
'lfhe held to be bindingupon the party, in behalf
fMr Madison. The truth is. Mr Clinton was never
nominated or supported expressly upon the ground that
thecrisiademanded a more vigorou, arm at the helm
of state than Mr Madison's.
Tbewar had not been actually declared, it is true.
bin every intelligent man sae/that it was inevitable,
and very near; and it was feared, as the result pro
ved, that under Mr Madison's administration II
toostki be feeblyecmdneted. Believing thus, that the
times demanded an executive of g realer energy and
force of character, the attention 4 many patrioti
men of both political parties,Was directed elsewhere
than to Virginia for a candidate; and fromthe high
intellectual realities of Mr Clinton, and the ac
hiscnokdged energy of his character, it was concav
ed that he would prosectite the impending congest
with great vigor, and bring it to a more speedy and
honorable close than could be done by Mr Madison.
Thissvas the ground upon which be was nominated.
wi upon which he was supported by Mr Van Buren,
and such of the old republican party as adhered to him
through the contest. As to the opinions and conduct
of
,Mr Van Buren in the early stages of the war, we
Aave reason to know that they werc not exactly in
rirstony with the majority of the people of this State,
Oven of his own party at the time; for it must here be
borne en mind that a very, decided majority of the
representatives in Congress from the State of New
Yorb—with Obadiah German is ate Senate altheir
shead--voted against the declaration of war, not,
lowever,that they held the contest to be unjust, but
they believed the country wholly unprepared far war at
the time, and consequently that the declaration was
:kiimisedtent. Such, probably were the original views
Van Buren—sucb, certainly were the views, of
Mr Clinton.
'Bus, the sear hating been declared, it is due to
Kr Van Buren to say, that no public man in the
Milk supported it snore thoroughly. heartily, ond
zealously throughout, than he did. Such, we know,
ilk mot the received opinion in many parts of the coun
' tiy, especially in the distant States; and we frequently
fee attempts making, in the presses opposed to him,
tot . tmder him unpopular by charging him with opp DRlk
don to the war itself, IL, well as to Mr Madison. :But
dap charge is untrue.
Many oi - our political friends will scowl upon us, we
know, for our frankness on this occasion. But we csre
neafor that. "Justice to all men," is our maxim, and
we wish not to beat even Mr Van Buren by falsehood.
We hese indeed, truth enough at nur command to do
their 1016.

that these celebrated pills do not relieve as much as

CURE OF A CANCEROUS SORE.
SING SING, JIM/1U 21, 1843
Dr. Benjamin Bravtdrea:—Honored Sir, owing
to you a debt of gratitude that money cannot ray, I am
induced to make a public acknowledgment of the ben
efit-my wife has derived from your invaluable pills.—
About three years this winter she was taken with a
pain in her ankle, which soon became very much in- I
flamed cud swollen, so mach se that we became alarm
ed,
and sent for the doctor. During his attendance
the pain and swelling increased roan alarming degree,
anci in three weeks from its first commencement it be
came a mining sore. She could get no rest at night
the pain was so great. Our first doctor attended her
for six months; anti she received no benefit whatever,
the pain growing worse and the sore larger all the
while. He said if it was healed up it would be her
death, but he appeared to be at a loss how to proceed,
and poor wile still continued to suffer the most terrible
tortures. We therefore sought other aid in a Botani
cal doctor, who said when he first saw it that he could
soon cure the sore, and give her ease at once. To our
surprise he gave her no relief, and acknowledged that
it baffled all his skill.
Thus we ( eh. after having tried during one whole
year the experience of two celebrated physicians in
vain, in absolute despair. My poor wife's constitution
rapidly failing in the prime of her years from her con
tinued suffering. Under these circumstances we con
clod id that we would try your Universal Vegetable
Pills, determined to fairly test their curative effects.—
To my wife's great comfort the first few doses afford
ed great relief to the pain. Within one week, to the
astonishment of ourselves and every one whoknew the
case. the swelling and the inflammation beganfto erase
so that she felt quite easy, and would sleep comforta
bly, and sir, after six weeks use she was able to go
through the bonse, and again attend to the manage
ment of her family, which she had not done for 14
months. In a little over two months from the time she
first commenced the use of yous_invaluable pills, her
ankle waa quite sound, and her' health better than it
had been in quite a number of years before. I send
you this statement after two years test of the cure, con
sidering it only an act of justice to you and the public
at large.
We are, with much gratitude,
Very respectfully.
TIMOTHY AND ELIZA LITTLE.
P. S. The Botanical Doctor pronounced the sore
cancerous, and finally said no good could be done, un
less the whole of the flesh was cut off, and the bone
scraped. Thank a kind Providence this made us re
sort to your pilti which saved us from all further mis
ery, and for which we t:ope to be thankful.

THE TRUE WAY TO RECOVER
HEALTH. '
'An individual only wishes to know the right
way to pursue it; and there are none, were it surely
made known bow Lisa might be prolonged and
Health recovered, who would not doubt the plan.—
Evidence is required that the right way is discovered
This is what those suffering from sickness want to be
satisfied about. For who is so foolish as not to enjoy
all the health that his body is capable of? Who is
there teat would not live when his experience can so
much benefit himself and family? It is a melancholy
fact that a very large proportion of the most useful
members of society die between the ages of thirty and
forty. How many widows and helpless orphans have
been the consequence of mandkind not having in their
own power the means of restoring health when lost.
Now all these dangers and difficulties can be preven
ted and the long and certain sickness, and by assisting
nature in the outset, with a good dose of Brandreth's
Pills. This is a fact, well understood to be so by thou
sands of our citizens. This medicine, if taken so as
to purge freely, will surely cure any curable disease.—
There is no form or kind of sickness that it does not
exert acurative influence upon. Thus, by their pow
er in' resisting putrefaction, they cure measles, small
pox, worms and all contageous fevers. There is note
medicine in the world so able to purify the mass of
blood, and restore it to a healthy condition, as the
Brandreth Pills.
The Brandreth Pills are purely vegetable, and so
innocent that the infant of a month old may use them,
if medicine is required, not only with safety but with a
certainty of receiving all the benefit medicine is capa
ble ofimparting. Females may use them in nil the crit
cal periods of their lives. The Brandreth Pills will
insure their health, and produce regularity in all the
functions of life.
The.sarne may be said of Brandrcth's external
remedy, as an outward application to all external pains
or swellings, or sores, it greatly assists the cure.
When used where the skin is very tender or broken,
it should be mixed with one or two pints of water.
A sure test of genuine Brand, elk Pals.—Exam
inn the box of Pills. Then look at the certificate of
agency, whose engraved date must be within the year,
which eery authorised agent mustpossess; if the three
labels on the box agree with the three labels on the cer
tificate, the Pills are true—if not, they are false.

great many instances the wonderful effects of your
medicines in relieving children of very obstinate com
plaints, such us coughing ,wheezing. choking of phlegm,
asthmatic attacks, &c, &c. I should not have written
this letter, however, at present, although I have felt
it my duty to add my testimony to it for some time, had
it not been for a late instance where the medicine
above alluded to was instrumental in restori:.g to per

hopeless, in a family of my acquaintance. thank

Beyond all doubt, Dr Sweyne's Compound Syrup
of Wild Cherry is the most valuable medicine in this or
any other country lam certain I have witnessed more
than one hundred eases where it has been attended with
complete success. I am using it myself in an obsti
nate attack of Bronchitis, in which it proved effectual
in an exceedingly short time, considering the severity
of the case. I can recommend it in the fullest confi
dence of its superior virtues; I would advise that no
family should be without it; it is very pleasant and of

Cattriricstx.—The following letter from Major
General Sandford, as to the Externil Remedy, speaks
volumes.
Ntar YORK, Feb. 9, 1842
Dear Sir: Will you oblige me with another bottle
of your exce,lent Liniment? It is certainly the best
of the kind I have ever seen. It has cured entirely my
son's knee, about which I was so uneasy, and I have
found it productive of immediate [chef in several ca
ses of external i iiury in my family. A few evenings
since, my youngest child was seized with a violent at
tack of croup, which was entirely removed in twenty
minutes, by rubbing her chestand throat freely with the
External Remedy. I think you ought to manufacture
this Liniment for general use, instead of confining the
use of it, as you have heretofore done, to pal dealer ao
(pain tances. Yours truly,

who from their continued sitting, to which their
occupations oblige them. are affected with costiveness
which give rise to palpitation at heart on the least
exertion, sense of heaviness extending over the whole
head, intoleranoe of light and sound, an inability of
fixing the attention to any mental operations; numb
ling of the bowels, sometimes a sense of suffocation,
especially aftermeadswhen any exertion is used, as go
ing quickly up stainer temper fickle; these are symp
toms which yield at once to a few doses of the Bran
dreth Pills. The occasional use of this medicine
would save adeal of trouble andyears of suffering.—
One, or two, or even three of the Bmndretb.Pills just
before dinner, are often found highly beneficial; ma
ny use them very advantageously in this way; they
assist and aid digestion, restore the bowels to their
proper condition, enlivens the spirits, imparts clear

a general feeling of health and happiness.
