Cox klix told me " I had taken nine bottles of Christie's Ague Balsam, and Continual ly run down while using it until my lungs and liver were Congested to that degree that blood discharged from my mouth and bowels, so that all thotight it impossible for me to live through another chill. The doctors to did all they could for me, but thought I must die. Nothing did mc any gHi until L got Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure which at once relieved me of the distress and nausea at my stomach and pain in my head and bowels, and produced a permanent cure in a short time. H. M. Conki.in" says : "I had been teen ta king mediciue of as good a doctor as we have in our county, and taken any quautity of quinine and specifics without any good result, from 25th August to 17th December. But seeing how nice ly it ouerated on my brother. I got a bottle of RHODES' FEVER AND AGUE CURE, which effected a permanent cure by using two thirds of a bottle." S. M.- Cosklis was not here, but both the other brothers say his case was the same as II. M's. I sold the medicine to both the same day, and the cure was as speedy from the same small quantity and I might so specify, Y'ours with respect, A. HUNTINGTON. The above speaks for itself. Good proof as it is, it is of no Utter tenor than the vast number of like cet tilleates I have already published, and the still greater amount that is continually pour ing in to n:Ci Ono thing more.

Trankliu county if I mistake not, was his birth place. Thence he started to win his way in life, and those, and the chil dren of tho.sc. amongst whom he was born, will gladly and resolutely come forward ro sustain him now. The intelligent, thrifty men of vour county ucccudarits of the robust Scotch. Irish end German pioneers of the Cumberland Valley, will not be wanting at a crisis when civil and religious liberty and the Union of the States are endangered. To the multitude which will be sure to assemble tliere I could not speak much as I wish it but my written words of sympathy and encourage ment of earnest anxiety for the success of the Democratic ticket at both the approach ing elections, (one scarcely less important than the other,) I cannot withhold. I shall have my abundant reward if they influence a single reader. Take them, t beg you, for what they arc worth. They are at least sin cere and disinterested, I have f-onie associations'with Franklin county which are peculiar. I have had fricuds there, in public and private life who, 86 co temporaries, were dear to me, and as my sen iors, honored inc by their counsel. Many of them have passed away though some are still surviving. I was in the Legislature, on the same side of politics too, for I am not s sliained of my antecedents, and you would despise rut? were I to deny them with David Fullerton and Thomas G. McCullok and I am very sure, if ihfy were alive now, they would be neither Know-Xothiugs nr Aboli tionists, I servedtong with Thomat Carwon, of Mcrcersburg, an honest and independent mau. and if (here be anyone whose private worth and dignified public integrity, I have been taught especially to respect, it ie he wiio still live3 honored and esteemed among you George Chambers. These are the personal associations which affect rnc May I allude to some others. I remember, years ago, on a bright pum mer's afternoon, toiling up the turnpike road on the Cove mountain, in your county, and when I reached the summit, turning to gaze on as beautiful sccue as ever , gladdened my eye the valley of peaceful beauty which stretches off to Maryland and towards to Po tomac. ; It la a familiar scene to most of you. To me it was new, and its impression has never faded from my mind. As far as the eye could reach, there was fertility the figna of tranquil industry; all was beautiful all was peaceful it looked, as it vras, like the abode of a happy and united people. The political line, separating Pennsylvania from Maryland, traced by those old fashioned sur veyors, Charles Mason and Jeremiah Dixon, was invisiblo to no eye. The trees on which they marked it had long been felled or dis appeared. Many a farm was separated by it, but, except' in the eye of the law, no one knew it or cared about it. I have often for painful thoughts arc thrusting themselves up on me recalled that scene of actual beauty and united interest, and realized what it would be what your condition will be what must be the condition of every county of this Com monwealth lying on th M&rjiand line r Ches ter, Lancaster, York, Adams, Franklin, Ful ton, Bedford. Somerset, Fayette and Greene; if disunion be forced on us, and the fracture be, as it would be, between what are popular ly but falsely called the free and the slave States, fcStween us and Maryland.. I wish every man could be made to understand what a frontier is. even that of civilized life. It3 daily, hourly vexations and dangers its line of custom-houses to keep the smuggler in and out the crowds of fugitives from justice and labor, infesting every avenue and conceded in every thicket the murderer striking down his victim to-day and flying with the fresh blood on his hand to . a Toreign territory to morrow the biekerincr. the strife, the hot rbhS -of; cotiteriiHEOK "-dispute fdl -this would be the daily doom of every Southern county of this State ; and across the beauti ful valley I have spoken of would be distress ingly visible, the actual, broad, perhaps bloody line which disunion must trace. 'This is true though hard to conceive. Pcnnsylva nians, and you, citizens of Franklin county, have so long reposed in the very centre of the Union, that you cannot under.'tand how you become a frontier and how you will suffer when you do. . There was a time, before the Union was framed, unless my reading of history much misleads me, when these fancied dangers were realities. Let the Union be broken, and they will be realities again. I read in the history of your own county (and it ap plies to every border county) words which it. is well to think of, for they may become truth again to-morrow: 'It surpassed," says a writer, " the pow ers of the settlers to curb the wild and law less spirit of the traders and frontiers men The Conocoehcaque settlements were infested with bands of desperate marauders and coun terfeiters, who bade defiance to all laws. They had an organized line through the Cumber land Valley into Virginia They drove a brisk trade by stealing horses and catlle. Af ter the British retired, they carried on an ex tensive trade amongst themselves by stealing horses at the South ; passing them along the line to the North where they could not be re cognized, and exchanging them for others sto len at the North. The long narrow valleys and secluded coves of the Blue Mountain af forded a convenient route and secure hiding places. These were no shabby villains : they wore the finest dresse?, sported the best hor ses, and could display more jewelry than any others in the fccttlements, and though the source of their sudden wealth was suspected, no one dared to prove it against them. When not engaged in stealing, they resorted to counterfeiting Continental money, and saun tering round the towns, passed it on travelers. If any one resisted or threatened to bring them to justice, his barn or crops tverc des troy cd by fire." This is history, aud why may ituot become history again ? It is the Union and the Constitution alone which prevent it and you are asked to put them at risk. Ibis is no rhetorical exaggeration. It is the sure fore-cat of an inevitable truth and J I exaggerate as little when I say, that never until now, have 1 Kit tne danger or cisunion to be imminent. I tremble, in do imaginary panic, but on sober conviction, when I think how near it may be how sure in one event it must be. Let me in temperate and guard ed languare say why I think there is danger and how Mr. Buchanan's election can alone avert it. Thefc no lies before me a3 I write, a few words of prophetic wisdom, written long be fore the present divisions of parties arose, which are very striking. They are the words of John C. Fremont's father-in-law : ' The substitution," says 3Jr. Benton in the early pages of his " Thirty Years," " of geograph ical parties discriminated by the slave line would, of course, destroy the just aud proper action of the federal government, and lead evr utually to the separation of States." " If," wrote Mr. Madison nearly forty years ago, when the danger was very far oft", a state cf parties should arise founded on geographical boundaries, what is to control these great re pulsive masses from awfjl hhocls agai.ist each other?" Now if tbee be word of .wisdom, if such are to be the probable coasequenees of geographical partiea strictly drawn, may not ihe trial of -the Uniou Le at Land ? In speaking of geographical parties, no sane man means to Fay or ever lias aid, that the mere fr.ctof the Candidas for President and Vice President on a ticket, being from oae section of the country, make a party scctkual or ge ographical. "Our political hisfory shows this iinot ko and itn.ay admit of tome question, (Mr. Fremont's residence being rather ambu latory,) whether his is in this sanse a section al parly now No one yet knowa exactly where the Vice President is to bail froo But that which makes a parcy sectional and geographical, is the principle which uoderlays it, the influence that controls it the aggre gate men that compose it, the flags that are flying over it ; and looking at them now, when was there a party more intensely an J malig nantly sectional,, and more offensively geo graphical thau that which in the last coinage of counterfeits, dares to call itself .Republican. I have not time, Boris the work congenial to my taste,-to point to the proof of this, so far as individuals are concerned. 1 here is not a leading Abolition agitator in Pennsylvania who is not enrolled in the P.epublican ranks. You know it in your neighborhood. I sea it in mine. The campaign is eoa lceied on pure ly Abolition principles, and those principles are avowed to" be, hostility to Southern inter ests and insult to Southern fecliags Nay, further : so confessed is this seciicnalism, that thisllepublican party does not pretend t9 ask a single electoral vote, or venture to circulate on an electoral ticket South of Pennsylvania. Jt is meant to be an absolute triumph of the North over the South. Nothing lew will sat isfy those who control it. Now when it is said or foretold that to this the South cannot submit, and that in this re fusal, the Union break asunder; I apr-! candid conservative men in the North, is there not reason in it ? If the converse of the prop osition could be stated, would the North fub mit? Certainly not, aDd that which is called disorganising rebellion and treason now, would be honorable resistance then. It is painful to write or talk about such things, but vre can not shut our eyes to them. An ivxecutlve ad ministration elected on the principles of the Republican party, and influenced by its cr5ir its, could not organize itself and when the hour of distraction and disunion come3, it will require a wiser and calmer intelligence lhan fanaticism can furnish to compose the storm a hand stronger than that of an adyentirer to hold the helm The danger is before... us and.Brcvnd nc. A3 a citizen of the North, I have sought to conceal it from myself, but it will not down at my bidding. I do not draw this inference ironi the language of extreme men; but when L near a fcenator ironi xventueky a Tl ? 1 .'M.J benator a moderate and conservative man, Avithin this month, in his place in the Senate, say "I have never paid much attention to the talk about a dissolution of the Union : but I have often thought on the subject, and my conviction is that the election of Fremont, or any mau of . that party, is the knell cf the Union." rspeeeb, of Thomson. Natiocal In telligencer, July. 17.) When such words as these are uttered, not by the heated South, but by the temperate and loyal West, wo have a right to say there is danger and very great danger too. The South on this subject of the Piesidency, is not violent or loud, hut its si lence is very ominous and most impressive Mr. Buchanan stands before the nation nndtliis is the ground over which conservative men should come to ids support as the rep resentative of the principle which alone can a vert thiir evils, that of repressing extirpation of all agitation on this subject of slavery, let it come from what quarter it may. He Las said in simple and earnest language, that it will be his aim. It must for the good of the nation coma to an end. It can be put an end to, by the strong moral power which a nation al man can exercise, aud at a time when the relations of the Union are not disturbed but harmonised and reconciled by the expression of the popular will, rebuking" decisively fanati cism of any sort; arid this rebuke the North ern and Middle Stte3 are bound to give. Without this co-operation, Mr. Buchanan may strive, and strive successfully to stay this noi sy current of political agitation. With it uls success is ea.-y. and tne peace of the nation is secured, It is the conviction of this aside altogether fioui regard that has brought me and thousands like me to his support. I'or a Penasvlvania mau for one whore earlier: lesson was reverence for it principle which William Penn enunciated, and whosa habits of thought and education make him adverse to secret or intolerant po litical organization, there was no other path open. 'peot.de lcat into whie'i some lneonsiuerate re now seduced, of what is known as the " American" organization, can have no attraction for me or any conservative man. Believing as I do, that Mr. Filliiiore took more than oae initiatory oath iu a K new Nothing Ledge, by which he bound himself to proscribe politically his fel'ow-cilizon who professed one form of christian faith, and those who happeued to have been born abroad, and to c nform Lis opinions and regulate his polit ical action by the decision of a secret, oath lound, polttical club, I cannot vote for him. My antipathy to this secret aud unconstitu tional organisation" is no new feeling ; I spoke it out long ago; I shall never change it. As one cf the leaders of this party of intolerance ;.is oae who gave to it the authority of his name and past position. I hold Mr. Fillmore responsible for a deep wound to the c;:use of political morality If there is one thing about which "the people .of this country are and ought to be sensitive, it is their right to wor ship God as they please. They claim to wor ship God under such forms of ecclesiastical discipline rs they choose to enforce upon t'.'.em selves, with fcuch ceremonial, simple or elab orate, as they please, on such days and in such places csthey choose for themselves, and this great jrlvilege of religious duty, the ConsLitdtion gua.dsand protects. It is equal ly the privilege of alb There is not a Pro tectant who is not as much interested in guard ing this constitutional right as the Catholic Christians whom Mr. Fillmore, aud his secret confederates, have sworn to proscribe. It was, I repeat, the worst wound ever ioSicte 1 on political morality in this country, when these secret oath-bound associations of reli--io'js intolerance were created. It was a sd spectacle when a statesman like Mr Fillmore joiid them. lleerettiug once more that I am unable to be with you, and to say what I have thus written.

There are other Northern States which might be put into the same category, aui'there b, besides the great State of New Yark, with" her thirty-five electoral votes, which, in the present State of the canvass, the Hepublicans cannot claim with any surety of success. The friends of Mr, i illinore will, without doubt, rua an electoral tieket'for him. and as they carried a plurality ia the last State election, though they may be weakened by disseusions now, they constitute a force which is not to be despised, and they have largo body of men iu their ranks who can nev er be brought to the support of the Republi can t'ekct. An Old Game. The Black .Republicans are at their old game of making a President by Railway and ."tcamboat voting. Gen. Jackson was utterly routed in this way : Cel. Polk stood no chance at all ; and four years ago, when, at the elec tion, Gen. Scott reeeived the electoral vote of but four States, pretty much all the vote taben upon public highways exhibited his op ponent in a wretched minority." We can scarcely take up a black republican paper now that does not furnish statements of similar votes, consigning Mr. Buchanan ta hopeless defeat. Democrats d not now, more than forme: ly, comprise the traveling coraminunity. It is no fiction that nine-tenths of the Demo cratic ballots are deposited by farmers, me chanics and laboring men. They are not travelers, nor birds of passage who flit be tween city, living by ao honest toil, and hav ing no great interest ia an honest administra tion of the government. They are Btaid citi zen?, intelligent upon all public questions, and always vote uudarstaadingly. Whil they do not eoirpriae a ni-ijoritj of tho .rav eling community, ihey do comprise a majority cf the peopla, which accounts for the roult of the elections generally. The Contra.it.
