raent does, indeed, rest upon tne consent
thA o-nvernad. but it is UDon tbe consent, not
of all, but of a majority of the governed. Crim
inal are every day poaished and made to o
bey tbe laws, certainly against their will, and
no man supposes that the principle referred
to is thereby invaded. A bill passed by a
Legislature, by tbe majority of a single vote
only, though the constituents of all who voted
gainst it should be in tact, aa they are held
to be in theory, (opposed to its provisions,
still it is not the less operative as a law, and
no right of self-government is thereby tram
pled upon. The clamor alluded to assumes
tbat the States are separate and independent
governments, and tbat laws enacted under tbe
authority of all may be resisted and repealed
at tbe pleasure of each. The people of tbe
United States, so far as the powers of tbe Gen
eral Government are concerned, are a unit,
and laws passed by a majority ot all are bind
ing upon all. The laws and Constitution,
however, which the South now resists, have
been adopted by her sanction, and the right
be now claims is that of a feeble minority to
repeal what a majority has adopted. Nothing
could be more fallacious.
Civil war, under all circumstances, is a ter
rible calamity, and yet, from tbe selfish ambi
tion and wickedness of men, the best govern
ments have not been able to'escape it. In re
garding tbat which has been forced upon the
Government of the United States, Kentucky
sbonld not look so much at the means which
may be necessarily employed in its prosecu
tion as at tbe machinations by which this na
tional tragedy has been brought upon us.
When I look upon this bright land, a few
months since so prosperous, so tranquil, and
ao free, and now behold it desolated by war,
and tbe firesides of its thirty millions of peo
ple darkened, and their bosoms wrung with an
guish, and know, as I do, tbat all this is the
work of a score or two of men, who, over all
this national ruin and despair, are preparing
to carve with the sword their way to seats of
permanent power, I cannot but feel tbat they
are accumulating upon their souls an amount
of guilt hardly equalled in all the atrocities of
treason and homicide that bave degraded tne
annals of our race from tbe foundations of the
world. Kentucky may rest well assured that
this conflict, which is one of sclf-defence.will
be pursued on the part of the Government in
tbe paternal spirit in which a father seek3 to
reclaim bis erring offspring. JS"o conquest, no
effusion of blood is sought. In sorrow, not in
aogertho prayer of all is that the end may be
Reached ' without the loss of life or waste of
property. Among tbe most powerful instru
mentalities relied on for re-establishing the
authority of the Government, is that of tbe
Union sentiment of the South, sustained by a
liberated press. It is now trodden to the earth
under a reign of terrorism, which has no par
allel but in the worst days of the I rencb Kev
olntion. Tbe presence of the Government
will enable it to rebound, and look its oppres
sors in the faco. At present we are assured
tbat in the seceded States no man ezDresses an
opinion opposed to the revolution, but at the
hazard ot his life and property. The only light
which is admitted into political discussion, is
tbat which flashes from the sword, or gleams
from glistening bayonets. A few days since,
one of the United States Senators from Vir
ginia published a manifesto, in which be an
nounces, with oracular solemnity and severity,
that all citizens who would not vote for series
sion, but were in favor of the Union not
should or ought but "must leave the State."
These words bave in them decidedly the crack
of tbe overseer s whip. The Senator evident
ly treats Virginia as a great negro quarter, in
which the lash is the appropriate emblem of
authority, -and the only argument be will con
descend to use. However tbe freemen of oth
er parts of the State may abase themselves
under tbe exercise of this insolent and pro-
Bcriptlve tyranny, snouia tne senator, with
tyranny, should the Senator, with
this scourge of slaves, endeavor to drive tbe
people of Western Virginia from their homes,
r fit 1 - r i. 1 . . 1
x win ouiy ay in hid language ui mu narra
tive of Gilpin's nde :
May I be there to see."
It would certainly prove a deeply interesting
spectacle.
It is true, tbat before this deliverance of
tbe popular mind ot the South from the threat
ening! and alarms which have subdued it, can
be accomplished, tbe remorseless agitators
who bare made this revolution, and now hold
Its reins, must be discarded alike from the
public confidence and public service. The
country, in its agony, is feeling their power,
and we well understand how difficult will be
the task of overthrowing the ascendency thry
bave secured. But the Union men ot the
South believed to be in the majority in every
eeceded State except perhaps, South Carolina
aided by the presence of the government,
will be fully equal to the emergency. Let
these agitators perish, politically, if need be,
by scores :
'A breath can unmake them, as a breath has made,'
but destroy this Republic, and
"Where is tbat Promethean heat,
That can its lizht relume?"
. Once entombed, when will the Angel of the
Resurrection decend to the portals of its sep
ulchre? There is not a voice which comes
to ns from tbe cemetry ot nations tbat does
not answer : "Never, never I" Amid the tor
ments of our perturbed existence, we may
bave glimpses of freedom, as tbe maniac has
glimpses of reason between tbe paroxysms of
bis madness, but wo shall attain to neither na
tional dignity nor national repose. We shall
be a mass of jarring, warring, fragmentary
States, enfeebled and demoralized, without
power at borne, or respectability abroad, and
like tbe Republics of Mexico and South A
ro erica, wo will drift away on a shoreless and
ensanguined sea of civil commotion, from
which, if tbe teachings of history are to be
trusted, we shall be finally rescued by the iron
band of some military wrecker, who will coin
tbe shattered elements of our greatness and ot
onr strength into a diadem and a throne.
Said M. Fould, the great French Statesman,
to an American citizen, a few weeks since,
"Tour Republic is dead, and it is probably
the last the world will ever seo. You will
bave a reign of terrorism, and after that two
or three monarchies." All this may be veri
fled, should this revolution succeed.
Let os then twine each thread of the glori
ous tissue or our country's nag about our
heart strings, and looking upon our homes,
and catching tbe spirit that breathes upon us
from tbe battle fields of our fathers let us re
solve tbat come weal or woe, we will, in life
and in death, now and forever, stand by tbe
tars and stripes. Tbey have floated over our
cradles; let it be our prayer and our struggle
that tbey shall float over our graves. They
have been unfurled from tbe snows of Canada
to tbe plains of New Orleans, and to the balls
of tbe Montezumas, and amid tbe solitudes of
very sea. and everywhere, as the luminous
symbol of resistless and beneficient power:
tbey bave led the free to victory and to glory.
' It has been my fortune to look upon this flag
in foreign lands, and amid the gloom of an
Oriental despotism ; and right well do I know,
by contrast, bow bright are its stars and bow
sublime are its Inspirations. If this banner
tbe emblem for us of all tbat is transporting
in human hope, is to be sacrificed on the al
tars of a satsnic ambition, and thus disappear
forever amid toe nignt ana temper t of revolu
tion, then will I fell and n bo shall estimate
tba desolation of that feeling 7 tbat tbe sun
bas indeed boen stricken from tbe sky of oar
lives, and tbat henceforth we shall be but wan-
j . ...:.u v.... w A

of sorrow and penury for our lips, and with
hands ever outstretched in feebleness and sup
plication, on which, in any hour, a military
tyrant may rivet the fetters of a despairing
bondage. May God in his infinite mercy save
you ana me, ana tne tana we so muca iuvc,
from tbe doom ot such a degradation !
N o contest so momentous as this has aris
en fn human history, for amid all the conflicts
of men and of nations, tbe life of no such gov
ernments as ours has ever been at stake. Our
fathers won our independence by the blood
and sacrifices of a seven year's war, and we
have maintained it against tbe assaults of tbe
greatest power upon the earth ; and the ques
tion now is, whether we are to perish by our
own hands, and bave the epitaph of the sui
cide written upon our tomb. The ordeal
through which we are passing must involve
immense fluttering and losses for us all, but
the expenditure of not merely hundreds of
million?, but of billions of treasurer will be
well made, if the result shall be the preserva
tion of our institutions.
Could my voice reach every dwelling in Ken
tucky, I would implore its inmates if they
would not bave the rivers of their prosperity
shrink away, as do unfed streams beneath the
summer beats to rouse themselves from tbeir
lethargy, and fly to the rescue of their coun
try before it is everlastingly too late. Man
should appeal to man, and neighborhood to
neighborhood, until the electric fires of patri
otism shall flash throughout the land. It is a
time in which tbe workship, the office, the
counting-house, and the field, may well be a-
bandoned tor tbe solemn duty tbat is upon us ;
for all these toils will bring but treasure, not
for ourselves, but for tbe spoiler, it this revo
lution is not arrested. We are all, with our
every earthly interest, embarked on mid-ocean
on the same common deck. The rrowl of the
storm is in our ears, and "tbe lightning's red
glare is painting bell on tbe sky," and while
the noble ship pitches and rolls under the
lashings of the waves, the cry is heard tbat
she has sprung a leak at many points, and that
the rushing waters are mounting rapidly in the
hold. The man who, in such an hour, will not
work at the pumps, is either a maniac or a
monster. Sincerely yours, J.Holt.

The time has come that all who will can escape
the iron grasp of Mercury, by calling, without de
lay, to see the well known and justly celebrated
Eclectic European Physician, DR. BORT, who
will administer those only true and safe medi
cines, extracted from the most choice Roots and
Herbs, which are prepared under his own super

eral Poisons, which were never designed for the
system, to take wbich many thousand have fallen
victims and gone to early grares.
THINGS TO BE REMEMBERED.
Remember that Dr. Bort wants no patients but
those fully capable of appreciating and distin
guishing the services of a regular thorough bred
physician, from a paltry, unlearned and trifling
quack.
Remember, Dr. Bort's remedies and treatment
are entirely unknown to all others in this coun
try ; prepared from a life spent in the great hos
pitals of Europe and tbe first in the country.
Remember, that Dr. Bort has a more extended
practice than any other physician in Western
Pennsylvania.
Remember, that citizens of education and our
popular men are all well acquainted with, and
take great pleasure in recommending Dr. Bort to
the afflicted.
Remember, that Dr. Bort makes no false repre
sentations to gull the unfortunate, but all he says
will be faithfully carried out.
Remember, that Dr. Bort pays every attention
to diseases ot a chronio nature.
Certificates of Cures may be seen at his respec
tive rooms.
Dr. B. is furnished with over six thousand let
ters of recommendations from some of the moat
distinguished men living. Also has awarded to
him diplomas from some of the most celebrated
Hospitals and Infirmaties in Enropc, for his un
parallelled observations in Diagnosis, and obser
vations in discovering remedies for the cure of
diseases that have heretofore befallen the skill of
many of the medical profession.
An early oall from those wishing to consult the
Doctor, is earnestly requested, so as to reoeive full
benefit of treatment, and thus do justioo to him
self. Time limited.
Please bear in mind when Dr. B. will be In your

the above places on the first train or stage on the
day appointed.
Please extend the invitation to all invalid ac
quaintance and oblige yours, Ao.

TTEEP UP THE EXCITEMENT. Re
V movals always cause excitement, and since
the great excitement about the removal of the

that Charly Watson has determined to pull up

cause of excitement is the fact that I have lemov
ed my Saddler Shop from my old stand opposite
the Court House to my new shop on Market street,
nearly opposite the jail, where all who may favor
me with a call can be supplied with Saddles, Sin

H
OSTETTER'S STOMACH
BITTER S. The proprietors and
Manufacturers of Hostctter,s Celebrated Stomach
Bitters can appeal with perfect confidence to phy
sicians and citizens generally of the United States
because the article bas attained a reputation here
tofore unknown. A few facts npon this point will
speak more powerfully than volumes of bare asser
tion or blazoning puffery. The consumption of
Uostetter's Stomach. Bitters for the last year a
mounted to over a half-million bottles, and from
its manifest steady increase in times past, it is ev
ident that during the coming year the consump
tion will reach near one million bottles. This im
mense amount could never have been sold but for
the rare medicinal properties contained in the pre
paration, and the sanction of the most prominent
physicians in those sections of tbe country wbere
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 in all ca
ses of stomacbicderangements and tbe diseases re
suiting therefrom. This is not a temporary popu
larity, obtained by extraordinary efforts in the way
of trumpeting tbe qualities of the .bitters, but
solid estimation of an invaluable medioine. which
is destined to be as enduring as time itself
Uostetter's Stomach Bitters have proved a God
send to regions where fever and ague and various
other bilious complaints have oounted their vie
tinis by hundreds. To be able to state confident
ly that the 'Bitters' are a certain cure for the Dys
pepsia and like diseases, is to-the proprietors a
source ot unalloyed pleasure, it removes all mor
bid matter from the stomach, purifies the blood
and imparts renewed vitality to the nervous sys
tem, giving it that tone and energy indispensable
for tbe restoration or health, it operates upon
thestomacn, liver, and otber digestive organs.
mildly but poweriuiiy, and soon restores them
to a condition essential to the healthy discharge
of the functions of nature.
Elderly persons may use tbe Bitters daily as per
directions on the bottle, and they wilt find it a
stimulant peculiarly adapted to comfort declining
years, as it is pleasant to tne palate, invigorating
to the bowels, exoellent as a tonic, and rejuvena
ting generally, we bave evidenoe of thousands
of aged men and women who have experienced
the benefit of using this preparation while suffer
ing from stomaou derangements and general de
bility; acting under tbe advice of physioians
they have abandoned all deleterious drugs and
fairly tested the merits of this article. A few
words to the gentler sex. There are certain pe
riods when their cares are so barrassing tbat many
of them sink under the trial. The relation of mo
ther and child is so absorbingly tender, that the
mother, especially u she be young, is apt to for
get her own health in the extreme anxiety for her
infant. Should the period for maternity arrive
during tbe summer season, the 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 the mother to bear
up under ber exhausting trials and responstbili
ties. Nursing mothers generally prefer the 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 have particular
ly referred above, to wit : sunerersfrom fever and
ague, 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 Hostetter s Celebrated Stomach Bit
tera a trial.
