Resolved, That we, the delegated represen '
taiives of the Republican Electors of .the
United States, in Convention assembled, in
discharge of the duty we owetpour coma.
tution and our country, united in the f0110w
...,
'nig deidarations:
- Fir,vt—That, the history .of tho_ nation
during the last fouryears has fully estafilished
the propriety and necessity of the organize.
lion 'mad eperpetuation of the Republican
party; end the causes' which called it-into
existence are permanent in their nature,
and now, more than ever before, demand
its peaceful and constitutional triumph..
Second.—That the maintenance of the
principles -promulgated in the Declaration
of Independence, and embodied in the Fed.
era' Constitution, is essential to the preserve-.
lion of the Republican institutions, and that
.the 'Federal Constitution, the rights of the
'Slates, must and shall be preserved. ' _
Third.—That to the Union of States this
nation owes its unprecedented increase in
population, its surprising development of
material resources, its happiness at homennd•
its honor abroad; and we hold in abhorrence
fill schemes for disunion,- come from what
source' they may. And we congratulate the
country that no Republican member of Con.
gross has uttered or countenanced a threat
of disunion so often made by the Democratic
members of Congress without rebuke; and
with applause from their political Associate's.
And we denounce those threats of disunion,
in case of a popular overthrow of. their ras•
-centlance,- as deny ing- the , .Nital "principles-of
a free Government, and as an avowal of con.
templated treason, which it is - the imperative
duty of an indignant people strongly. to re.
buke and forever silence.
Fourth.—That the Maintenance inviolate
.of the rights of the : States, and especially tke
rights of each State to order and control its
own domestic institutions according to its
own judgment exclusively, is essential to
that balance of power on which the ;weed ,
thin and endurance of her political faith de•
pen& And we denounce the lawless inva•
room by an armed force, of any State or Ter-
ritory, no. matter . under what pretext, as
among the gravest.of crimes.
.Fifth.—That the present Democratic ad•
ministration Inis fur exceeded 'dor worst
apprehensions in its measureless subsurvien.

is•especially evident in its desperate exer,
lions to force the infamous Leeompton Con

REASON AND COMMON SENSE
,
Our readers may remember we have on several occa
sions spoken in very eulogistic terms of n preparation
~whirls Dr. Sr pt S. lime, of lot Daltimore street'Balti
more, iild.,,has discovered for too cure of Epilept ic Fits.
Nov, in doing so. we hate been actuated by the very
best motives, viz: the elleviAtnn of human su Miring.
From circumstances which have lately" Mlle to our
knowledge, wp fy nr there is a certain dm of persona
who are not disposed to try this remedy in a common
sense manner. We allude to the fact of .dertlng a par-
Ocular case in a town Where perhaps there are six or
eight cases, and trying it on ono ease. Now, ' , crimps
the rase selected might be the only one of the whole
number that It would tint cure. This is neither doing
themselves or the medicine justice. Ifs dozen persona
were stricken down with cholera In one town or neigh
borhood, would I heymil send for a physician, nr would
only ono employ him, and wait and coo Dim cured the
first patient 7 That plan of procedure would be elect
alosurd. So In the ease of Dr. flance's retnetly, every one
who has Fits should try it fore reasonable lengthof
thud. It will not cure in s day or week; nothing worth
doing can be accomplished at ones... What is easily do et
bins cosily undone. The growth of time in enduring.
From the most respectable testimony we have examin
ed. we feel ensured that by a proper perseverance In
thin remedy, nine ceseaof Epilepsy out of ten may be
cured. The Pills are cent by mall free of postage to
any port - of the world. Price: one box fig; two 1;
