- TREASON IK THE V. S. SENATE.
. On the 27th of November, 1807, a resold
tion was introduced into the Senate raising a
Committee to inquire whether John Smith,
tlien a Senator lrom Ohio, ought not to be
'expelled because of - the part changed that
he had taken ju the conspiracy of Aaron Burr
against the peace and prosperity of the unit
ed States." John Quiucy Adams was Chair
man of the Committee, and finally presented a
report, concluding with the following resolu
tion :
Resolved, That John Smith, a Senator from
the State of Ohio, by his participation in the
conspiracy of Aaron Burr against tho Peace,
Union, .and Liberties of the United States,
has been guilty of conduct incompatible with
bis duty and station as a Senator ol the United
Slates. 'And, that he therefore, and hereby
is, expelled lrom the Seuate of the United
Stites.
Mr. Smith was defended before the Senate
by F'rancis S. Key and Goodloe Harper, two
of the ablest lawyers ot that time. After an
examination ef all the circumstances tending
to sustain the charge, it was ascertained that
Mr. Smith bad given Mr. Burr a hospitable
reception under his roof for four or five days,
and -that he afterward saw him again at Cin
cinnati and in Kentucky. It was not shown
that-be even knew ot Burr's designs, or bad
in any way given them countenance ; and j'et
the abOAe resolution received nineteen votes
of the twenty-nine given in the Senate. . As
the number of votes required by the Constitu
tion were not given, the resolution did not
pass. ' Mr. Smith, however, resigned, and re
tired from public life, a disgraced man.
r That was the way members of the Senate
upon whom the suspicion of treason rested
were treated in the puro days of the Repub
lic! ;Now, jn this -degenerate age, Senators
avow their treason on tho floor of the Senate,
and meet in midnight cabal to form conspira
cies "against the Peace, Union, and Liber
ties of the people of the United States;" and
yet there are no resolutions of expulsion !
1 - New York Militia. Ready for Service.
Major-Gen. Sandford has communicated to the
Governor a resolution unanimously passed by
the Division Board of officers of the First Di
vision New York State Militia, tendering their
services for any duty which the preseut emer
gency may require. The organized, uniform
ed and disciplined troops of this Division, di
vided into sixteen regiments, now includes up
ward of 7,000 men olliceis, non commission
ed officers, and privates. The un-uniformed
militia of the division, now enrolled, amounts
to upward of 85,000 men. Of these a large
number are men who have served their seven
years in various regiments of this division,
and who are liable to be called into service in
case of insurrection. These men would gen
erally desire to serve in their old regiments,
and in case, of emergency would flock to our
standards, and the uniformed corps could then
be increased to 15,000 or 10,000 luen. A large
number of the officers and men.of the division
are trained as Artillerists, and in case the
United. States Government should find it ne
cessary to withdraw the residue of their troops
from the harbor ot New York for the Southern
fortifications, Gen. Sandford says he could de
tail a sufficient force to supply their places in
twenty-four hours, and could replace them
from time to time, as long as might be neces
sary. This shows the right spirit in the right
quarter. The military force of the State, true
to the object for which it was established, can
be fully relied on to uphold the Union, the
Constitution and the enlbrcemeut of the laws.

and is now ready for delivery, gratis, by C. D.
Watson, to all who call for it. Our readers
may be surprised to know that this little pam

our section has quite the largest circulation of
any one book in the world, except the Bible.
It is printed in many languages and scattered
through many nations as well as supplied to
almost the entire - population of our own vast
domain. Every family should keep it, for it
contains information which all are liable to re
quire, when sickness overtakes them and which
may prove invaluable from being at hand f n

and get an Ayer's Almanac, and when got,
keep it. - - ; ' - -

The peculiarites of the female constitution and
the various trials to which the sex is subjected,
demand an occasional recourse to stioinlants. It
is important, however, that these shall be of a
hariule.s3 nature, and at the same time accomplish
the desired end. llostetter's Celebrated Stomach
Bitters is the very article. Its effects in all cases
of debility are almost magical.. It restores the
tone of the digestive organs, infuses fresh vitality
into the whole system, and gives that cheerfulness
to the temperament, which is themo!t valuable of
feminine attractions The proprietors feel flatter
ed from the fact that many of the most prominent
medical gentleman jn the Union have bestowed
encomiums upon the Bitters, the virtues of which
they have frequently tested and. acknowledged.
There are numerous counterfeits offered for sale,
all of which are destitute of merit, and positive
ly injurious to the system.

HOSTETTER'S STOM
acii BITTERS. The nroDrietors and
Manufacturers of Hostetter,s Celebrated Stomach
Hitters can appeal with perfect confidence to phy
sicians and citizens generally of the United States,
because the article lias attained a reputation here
tofore unknown. A few facts upon this point will
epeak more powerfully than volumes of bare asser
tion or blazoning puffery. . The consumption of
llostetter's ftumach Bitters for the last year a
moutilpl Uf oyer a half-million bottles, and from
its manifest steady increase in times past, it is ev
ident that during the coining year the consump
tion will reach ;icarone million bottles. This im
mense amount could never have been sold but fjr
the rare medicinal propertiescontaiucd in the pre
paration, .and the sanction ot the most prominent
physicians in those sections of the country where
the article is best known, who not only recommend
the Bitters to their patients, but are ready at all
times to give testimonials to its efficacy iu all ca
ses of stom ach ic dera ngements aud the diseases re
sult! ug therefrom. This is not a temporary popu
larity, obtained by extraordinary efforts in the way
of trumpeting the qualities of the Bitters, but a
solid estimation of an invaluable medicine, which
is destined to be as enduring ns time itself
llostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved a God
send to regions where fever and ague and various
other bilious complaints have counted their vic
tims by hundreds, io be able to state confident
ly that the 'Bitters' are a certain cure for the Dys
pepsia and like diseases, is to tho proprietors a
source of unalloyed pleasure. It removes all mor
bid matter from the stomach, purines the blood,
and imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys
tem, giving it that tone and energy indispensable
for the restoration of health. It operates upon
the stomach, liver, and other digestive organs,
mildly but powerfully, and soon restores them
to a condition essential to the healthy discharge
of the functions of nature. '
Elderly persons may use the Bitters daily ns per
directions on the bottle, and . they will - find it a
stimulant peculiarly adapted to conifort declining
years, as it is pleasant to the palate, invigorating
to the bowels, excellent as a tonic, and rejuvena
ting generally. We have evidence of thousands
of aged men and women who have experienced
the benefit of using this preparation while suffer
ing from stomach derangements and general de
bility; acting under the advice of physicians,
they have abandoned all deleterious drugs and
fairly testod the merits of this article. A few
words to the gentler sex. There are certain pe
riods when their cares are soharrassing that many
of them sink under the trial. The relation of mo
ther and child is so absorbingly tender, that tho
mother, especially if she be young, is apt to for
get hcrown health, in the extreme anxiety for her
infant. Should the period for maternity arrive
during the summer season, tho wear of body and
mind is generally aggravated. Here, then, is a
necessity for a stimulant to recuperate the ener
gies of the system, and enable tho in either to bear
up tinder her exhausting trials and responsibili
ties. Nursing mothers generally prefer tho Bit
ters to all other invigorators that receive the en
dorsement of physicians, because it is agreeable
to the taste as well as certain to give a permanent
increase of bodily strength;' . -
' All those persons, to whom we havo particular
ly referred above, to wit : sufferers from fever and
ngue, caused by malaria, diarrhoea,-dysentery, in
digestion, loss of appetite, and all diseases or de
rangements of the stomach, superanuated inval
ids, persons of sedentary occupation, and nursing
mothers, will consult their own physical welfare
by giving to llostetter's Celebrated Stomach. Bit
ters a trial. . w . ......
Caution. We caution the public against using
any of the many imitations or counterfeits, but ask
for llostetter's Celebrated Stomach Bitters, and see
that each bottle has the words "Dr. J. llostetter's
Stomach Bitters"' blown on the side of the bottle,
and stamped on the metallic cap covering the cork,
and observe that our autograph signature is on the
label. tPrepared and sold hyllostctterlf Smith,

the great excitement about the removal of the
Court House has subsided, the community gener
ally have become somewhat excited upon hearing
that thartynatson has determined to pull up
stakes and remove to Virginia. But the latest
cause of excitement is the fact that I have icmov

the Court House to my new shop on Market street,
nearly opposite the jail, where all who may favor
