THE. PEOPLE'S AN') SOREHEAD CON
VRIEITION
Yesterday was a great day for Conventions: Be
sides the True Press Convontion noted elseithero,
the delegates to a convention which met on tho '2.21
of Juno and adjourned until August 250, being what
are commonly known as tho Know Nothing Scre
heads reassembled. Ihey called themselves the
Peeple's Convention and originally organized under
an anonymous cell for a Convention of thoso "4po
sod to the present corrupt administration ; ()Weed
to taxation, and opposed to things in general, and
ezpecially to the Republican nominations.
At half-past ten o'clock Major Willock took the
Chair with the anneuneement that the "delegates to
tho Convention of the 23d of June, which adjourned
until to-nay, would please take their seats. There
was another convention called for to-day, and this
other convention had buttes got another room, so as
not to get mired up."
Aftzr waiting for some time, Capt. William Ward
announced that there had been a call issued for an.
~t b,c? convention to meet to-day for the same pur.
p. se as this one, viz: to oppose taxation. The ob
jects of the two conventions were identical, and ho
moved that come measures be taken to join the two
conventions.
Major Wilke!: remarked that the Convention was
not yet organized. The list of delegates had not
been called.
Mr. Hiram Callow, Secretary No. 2 of last Con
vention, said That Thos. F. Wilson, Esq.. Seerot;ry
1, had all ttio prom:ding, list of dologates in.
dud:7,J.
r t. Valentino Short moved that Secretary No. 2
Fo Liter Secretary No. 1, and get the proceedings of
the f,rmer ECS9OD. Secretary No. 2 went as re ,
laL :0.1, and returned with Secretary No. 1.
The list of delegates was called over, and Mr.
Hiram Callow moved :hat a committee bo appointed
to " prepare business" for this convention.
Mr. Sutherland a:ked what they meant by " pro
paring business."
Mr. Callow said that the thing seemed to be
"jumbled up somehow or other," and ho thought a
committee of a few could prepare some regular order
of business. it was carried by a vote of 2 ayes ;
aces, none.
The Committee was as follows : H. P. Callow, Wm.
iVard, James A. Sutherland, Hiram Hulz, George
CI3
The C-,mmitree on Ba. , izass rcported soet..e rasolu
lions, which very adopted.
A long and desultory discussion took place about
" this " and " the other " Convention, and finally
appointed a Committee to confer with a similar Com.
mince from •' the other " Convention, relative to
.int ne•icn of the are bodies. The "other" C:n
vention "repudiated" the People's Convention after
they had agreed to go in on the "Anti-Tax basis."
While things were getting fixed, a good deal of
hrilliant sparring took place betvrcen Major Willock,
Chairman, and Thomas F. Wilson, Esq., one of the
Secretaries, relative to points of order.
In the afternoon, after it had barn ascertained that
the Anti-Tax end the People's Convention could'nt
lase, the Convention appointed a committee on reso
lution, Col. Hiram Holtz, Chairman, and proceeded
to business. While the Committee were preparing
tLeir refoluticas, Capt. William Werd was called on
ler a speech and " p,tehed in." He denounced in
unmc.-e:e•l zerurs the Republican, Democratic and
A n:i.l-tliiro;l3 Convention, stigmatizing the leaders
Z. 1.1 hounds, tricksters, political guerrillas, ko. The
cry et " ti-tay.," "anti-tax," " anti.taa:" was all
a lanioliog—a cloak to co :coal the political designs of
the Lc.iind-." He said Ca....re wore two Republicans
to oneDeinacrat in the county opposed to levying a
tax for Fa.iread purposes. Ito said the action of the
loci railroad Convention, in refusing to unite with
this convention, war foolich, beyond precedent, and
dicclosed :he "felonious" motive of the lead
ers of that body, which was transparent to any coo
who was present when the vote was taken. The
t trines ther , , who voted nay,were plainly to be
:eon. Capt. W. having cc.nrhded,
On metier. the Cc oventioa procceded to nominate

Capt. Short moved that no candidate be nominated
who war not Leland on the anti tax question, and that

Prof. Cowper.—This gentleman, as will be seen by
reference to our advertising columns, will reopen his
Dancing Academy, at Neville Hall, corner of Fourth

of dancing should give him a call. His charges ail;
moderate.

Rippoy and E. Simpson, members of the bar, who
have formed a 00-partnership.

Corn and Wart Extractor.—This subject is ono of
great concern to persons only who are affii , ted, and
therefero would say that you had probably been

AS AN EFFICIENT, safe and convenient

Pills are re•conimentled to the public by the Lumor propri
etor, (Wt. WILSON,) with a confidence such at a long con•
tinned and careful trial of them in an ample practice war
rants. In their operation as a cathartic, they Influence
more the tnotory and less ale socerning power of the bowels
thou any other combination in common use.
AS A TONIC—They agree with the most delicate stom
ach, removing nausea, pain, and debility from that organ,
and through it impart tone and vigor to the whole system.
AS AN ANTI-DYSPEPTIO---They neutralise and inter
rapt the formation of acids, check fermentation, and pre
vent the elimination of gases from the food in the stomach,
—the direct consequences of chemical action,—an action
which should never exist in the human stomach. From
these peculiarities in the Pills, a person taking them may
expect a free, full and natural evacuation of the bowels,
without pain, nausea, local or general debility, or that dis
gusting sickness or costtveness—the usual affects which at
tend or follow the use of other ptuges,

WASOLNOTON, Pa. January 8, 1858—Dear Doctor: I have
been using your " Anti-Dyspeptic " Pills, when occasioned
required, for many years, and can truthfully say that I have
never formil any medicine equal to them in relieving me
from affections of the stomach and head. They have never
failed to relieve me from headache, and have always left
my system in better condition they found it. I must confi
dently recommend your Pills as a safe and highly valuable
medicine. Very respectfully, etc.,

To i.n. IL A. Witeorc—Dear Sir: I hove been 'ming yunr
Pills since 1840, and do decidedly say they are the best Pill
in use, or that I have any knowledge of. I first used them
1.. r "sick headache," with which I suffered beyond descrip•
tion ; I am happy to say, that they entirely cured me. Since
then I CM them as a family medicine : if I am bilious, or
anything ails me, and I require medicine, I take a Pili,aud
it cures me; they are my only medicine, and have been for
the Last seventeen years. THOS. BLAOKMORE.

Hear Dr. Keyser
Mr.9.9:R.5. B. L. FAL:mussel:ix a. Co—l have had considerable
experience In the use of the extraordinary Pill compounded
by Dr. It. Adams Wilson, of which you are now the propri
etors, and have often felt their benign influence in my own
case for "nervous headache," arising from a disordered con
dition of the stomach. I have likewise prescribed them for
others, in cases of " hemicrania" and other forms of head.
ache depending on a deranged and irritable condition of the
stomach and digestive organs, of which they seem peculiar
ly adapted, being entirely free !rem any griping tendency,
I regard them as a very valuable Pill, and one that purges
without at all debilitering. Yours truly,

ROXBURY, MABB
plum Menter.,—The reputation of the Medical Discovery,
In caring all kind of humors, is so well established by the
unanimous voice of all who have ever used it, that I need
not say anything on the subject, as the most skilful physl.
clans and the most careful Druggists in the country are Tin
a alumna in its praise.
In presenting the Medical Discovery to your notice, I do
it with a tall knowledge of the curative power. In relieving
all, and curing moat of those diseases in which you are no
fortunately so liable. That most excruciating disease to an
affectionate mother,
NURSING SORE MOUTH,
Is cared as if by a miracle; your own temper Is restored to

ANN Asses, November 6, 1950.
d -Deer Sir :—I have heard much said of
the w u it iul elk- is et your liar Itequr-tive, but having
1, , c1 so aims cheated by quackery sod quack nostrums,
hair dyes, he., I was disposed to placo your Restorative in
the same category with the thousand and ono loudly trum
peted quack remedies, until I met you fu i.awrouco county
0,1110 month" since, when you gave me [inch assurance es
Induced the trial of your Restorative in my fdmily—first by
my good wife, whose hair had become very thin and en
tirely white, and before exhausting one of your large bot
tles, her hair was restored nearly to its original beautiful
brown color, and had thickened and become beautiful and
glossy upon, and entirely;over the head; she continues to
use it, not simply because of its beautifying effects upon
the hair, but because of its healthful influence upon the
band and mind. Others of my family and friends are using
your Restorative, with the happiest effects herefore, my
skepticism and doubts in reference to its character and
value are entirely removed; I can and do and most cor
dially and confidentially recommend its use by all who
would have their hair restored from white or gray (by roe.
con of sickness or age,) to original color and beauty, and by
all young persons wtio would have their hair beautiful and
glossy. Very truly and gratefully yours,
SOLOMON MANN.
Frasim WOOD: It was a long time after I saw you at
Blissfleld before I got the bottle of Restorative for which
you gave me an order upon your agent in Detroit, and when
I got it we concluded to try it on Mrs. Mann's heir, as the
surest test of its power. It has done all that you assured
me it would do • and others of my family and friends,
having witnessed its effects, are now using and recommend.
lug its nee to others as entitled to the highest consideration
you claim for It.
Again, very reapecthilly and truly, yours,
SOLOMON MANN.

I have used Prof. 0. J. Wood's Hair Restorative,=dhows
admired its wonderful effects. My hair was becoming, as I
thought, prematurely gray, but by the use of his Restore..

permanently so. S. BRUM, ex -Senator 11. 8.
