DECLARATION
INDEPENDANCE.
IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776.
1
WHEN, in the course of human events,
it becomes necessary
.for one people to
dissolve the political bands which have
connected them with another, and to as
sume, among the powers of the earth, I
the separate and equal station to which
the laws of nature and of nature's Goa
entitle them, a decent respect for the
opinions of mankind, requires that they
should declare the causes which impel
them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident
—that all men are created equal; that
they are endowed by their Creator, with
certain unalienable rights ; and among
these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness. That to secure these rights,
governments are instituted among men,
deriving their just powers from the con
sent of the governed ; that whenever ally
form of government becomes destruc
tive of these ends, it is the right of the ,
people to alter or abolish it, and to insti- •
tute a new government, laying its foun
dation on such principles, and organizing
its powers in such forms, as to them
shall seem most likely to effect their
safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed,
will dictate, that governments long es- 1 ,
tablished, should not be changed for light
and transient causes ; and, accordingly
all experience bath shown that mankind
are more disposed to suffer, while evils
are sufferable, than to right themselves
by abolishing the forms to which they
are accustomed. But when a long train
of abuses and usurpations, pursuing inva
riably the same object, evinces a design
to reduce them under absolute despotism
—it is their right, it is their duty, to
throw off such government, and to pro
vide new guards for their future secu
rity. Such has been the patient suffer
once of these colonies, and such is now
the necessity which constrains them to
alter their former system of government.
The history of the present king of Great
Britain, is a history of repeated injuries
and usurpations, all having in direct ob
ject the establishment of an absolute
tyrrany over these states. To prove
this, let facts be submitted to a candid
world.
He has refused his assent to laws, the
most wholesome and necessary for the
public good.
He has forbidden his governors to
pass laws of immediate and pressing im
portance unless suspended in their oper
ation till his assent should be obtained ;
and when so suspended, lie has utterly
neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other laws for
the accommodation of large districts of,
people, unless those people would refill.;
quish the right of representation in the
legislature,—a right inestimable to them'
and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative
bodies, at places unusual, uncomfortable,
and distant from the depository of their
public records, for the sole purpose of
fatiguing them into compliance with his
measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses
repeatedly,for opposing with manly firm
ness his invasions on the rights of the
people.
He has refused, for a long time after
such dissolutions, to cause others to be
elected ; whereby the legislative pow
ers, incapable of annihilation, have re
turned to the people at large, for their
exercise ; the state remaining in the
meantime, exposed to all the danger of
invasion from without and convulsions
from within.
He has endeavored to prevent the pop
ulation of these states; for that purpose
obstructing the laws for the naturaliza
tion of foreigners, refusing to puss others
to encourage their migration hither, and
raising the conditions of new appropri
tions of lands.
He has obstructed the administration
of justice, by refusing his assent to laws,
for establishing judiciary powers.
Ho has made judges dependent on his
will alone for the tenure of their offices,
and the amount and payment of their
salaries. He has erected a multitude of
new offices, and sent hither swarms of
officers, to harass our people, and cat out
their substance.
He has kept among us,in time of peace,
standing armies, without the consent of
our legislature.
He ins affected to render the military
independent of, and superior to, the civil
power.
He has combined with others to subject
us to a jurisdiction, foreign to our con
stitution and unacknowledged by our
laws ; giving his assent to their acts of
pretended legislation.
For quartering large bodies of armed
troops among us.
For protecting them, by a mock trial,
from punishment for any murders which
they should commit on the inhabitants
of these states.
For cutting off our trade with all parts
of the world.
For imposing taxes on us without our
consent.
For depriving us, in many eases, of the
benefits of trial by jury.
For transporting us beyond the seas,
to be tried for pretended offences.
For abolishing the free system of Eng-
lish laws in a neighboring province, es
tablishing therein an arbitrary govern
ment, and enlarging its boundaries, so
as to render it at once an example ann
fit instrument, for introducing the same
absolute rule into these colonies.
Fur taking away our charters, abolish
ing our most valuable laws, and altering
fundamentally the powers of our govern
ments.
For suspending our own legislatures,
and declaring themselves invested with
power to legislate for us in all cases
whatsoever.
He has abdicted government here, by
declaring us out of his protection, and
waging war against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged
our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroy
ed the lives of our people.
He is at this time, transporting large
armies of foreign mercenaries to com
plete the works of death, desolation, and
tyranny, already began, with circum
stances of cruelty and perfidy, scarcely
paralleled in the most barbarous ages,
and totally unworthy the head of a civil
ized nation.
He has constrained our fellow citizens,
taken captive on the high seas, to bear
arms against their country, to become
the executioners of their friends and
brethren, or to fall themselves by their
hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections
among us, and has endeavored to bring
on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the
merciless indian savages, whose known
rule of warfare is an undistinguished
destruction of all ages, sexes and con
ditions.
In every stage of these oppressions,
we have petitioned for redress, in the
most humble terms ; our repeated peti
tions have been answered only by re
peated injury. A prince whose charac
ter is thus marked by every act which
may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the
ruler of a free people.
. .
Nor have we be . en wanting in atten
tion to our British brethren. We have
warned them from time to time, of at
tempts made by their legislature, to ex
tend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over
us. We have reminded them of the cir
cumstances of our emigration and set
tlement here. We have appealed to their
native justice and magnanimity-, and
we have conjured them, by the ties of
our common kindred, to disavow these
usurpations, which would inevitably in
terrupt our connections and correspon
dence. They, too, have been deaf to the
voice of consanguinity. We must there
fore, acquiesce in the necessity which
denounces our separation, and hold them
—as we hold the rest of mankind—ene
mies in war—in peace, friends.
Ws, therefore, the representatives of
the United States of America, in general
Congress assembled, appealing to the
Supreme Judge of the world, for the
rectitude of our intentions, Do, in the
name, and by the authority of the good
people of these colonies, solemnly pub
lish and declare, that these united colo
nies are, and of " right ought to be, free
and independent states,—That they are
absolved from all allegiance to the Brit
ish crown, and that all political connec
tion between them and the state of Great
Britain is, and ought to be, totally dis
solved ; and that as free and independent
states, they hare full power to levy war,
conclude peace, contract alliances, es
tablish commerce ; and to all other acts
and things, which independent states
may of right do. And for the support
of this declaration, with a firm reliance
on the protection of Divine Providence,
we mutually pledge to each other our
lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.
Signed by order and in behalf the
Congress.

he decease of the said Wm. Swaim, and the busi
ness is now, and will be in future, conducted exclu

charge of the manufacturing of the Panacea and
Vermiluge for the last 14 years.
Tho Panacea will be put up as usual in round

been turned for tho exclusive use of the proprietor,
by Draper & Co., bank note engravers of Philadel

late Wm. Swaim, separated from the borders by
two circles of lathe work. The words " Swaim's
Panacea," are engraved conspicuously on two turn
ed strips, and a large semi-circular die forms the
upper margin. The borders are composed of plain
lathe work strips, outside of which is engraved in

ALL-/IEA.LINO OINTMENT.
Insensible
,Perseiralton
Is the great Rtiteufttion - for the inpuri
ties of the body. Life cannotibe sus
tained without it. It is thrown off from the
blood and other juices of the body, and
disposes by this means of nearly all the
impurities within us. The language of
scripture, " in the blood is the life."—
If it ever becomes impure it may be
traced directly to the stoppage of the
" insensible perspiration. rhus we
see all that is necessary when the blow./
is stagnant or infected, is to open the
pores and it relieves itself from all im
purity instantly. Its own heat and vi
tality are sufficient, without one particle
of medicine, except to open the poree
upon the surface. Thus we see the folly'
of taking so much internal remedies.-- ,
All practitioners, however, direct their
efforts to restore the insensible perspira
tion. The Thompsonian, for instance:
steams; the Hydropathist shrouds in
wet blankets ; the Homoeopathist deals
out infintissimals; the Ailopathist bleedl .
and doses us with mercury, and the
blustering Quack gorges us with pills.
1 have had physicians, learned in the
profession, I have had ministers of the
Gospel, Judges of the Bench, Aldermen
and Lawyers, gentlemen of the highest
erudition, and multitudes of the poor,
use it in every variety of way, and there
has been but one voice—one united,
universal voice—saying, "M'Allistcr
your Ointment is good."
CONSTIMPTION.—It can hardly be cred- -
ited that a salve can have any effect
upon the lungs, seated as they are with.-
in the system. But if placed upon the'
chest, it penetrates directly to the lungs,
separates the poisonous particles that
are consuming them, and expels them
from the system. I need not say that
it is curing persons of Consumption con
tinually, although we are told that it is
foolishness. I care not what is said, so
long as I can cure several thousand per
sons annually.
HEADACHE.—The salve has cured per
sons of the Headache of 12 year's stand
, ing, and who had it regularly every week,
so that vomiting often took place.
Deafness and Ear ache are helped
with like success.
COLD Fmr.—Consumption; Liver Com
plaint, pains in the Side or Chest, falling
off the hair, one or the other, always
accompanies cold feet. It is a sure sign
of disease in the system to have cold feet.
The Salve will cure every case in
Scrofula, Erysipelas, Salt Rheum, Liver
Complaint, Sore Throat, Bronchitis,
Broken or Sore Breast, Piles, Chest Dis
eases, such as Asthma, Oppression,
Pains, also Sore Lips, Chapped Hands,
Tumors, Cutaneous Eruptions, Nervous
Diseases, and of the Spine there is no
medicine known probably so good.
BURNS.-h is the best thing in the
world for Burns, (Read the directions
•
around the box.)
Pimples on the face, Masculine Skin,
Gross Surface.—When there is grossness
or dull repulsive surface, it begins to
soften until the skin becomes as smooth
and delicate as a child's.
Wonms.—lf parents knew how fatal
most medicines were to children taken
inwardly, they would be slow to resort
to them. Especially mercurial lozen
ges,' called medicated lozenges,'vet
mifuges," pills,' Scc. The truth is, no .
one can tell, invariably, when worms
are present. Now let me say to parents,
that this salve will always tell if a child
has worms. It will drive every vestige
of them away. (Read the directions
around the box.) There is probably no
medicine on the face of the earth at
once so sure and so safe in the expul
sion of worms.
OLD SORES.—That some sores are an
outlet to the impurities of the system,
is because they cannot pass oft' through
the natural channels of the Insensible
Perspiration. If such sores are healed
up, the impurities must have some other
outlet, or it will endanger life. This
salve will always provide for such emer
gency.
RII ' EUDIATISN.—AImost every case cu.
red with this ointment.
FEVERS.—In all cases of fever, the
difficulty lies in the pores being locked
up so that the heat and perspiration can
not pass off: if the least moisture could
be started, the crisis has passed and the
danger is over. The all-healing oint
ment will in all cases of fevers almost
instantly unlock the skin and brings
forth the perspiration.
We have cured cases of Scald Head that
defied every thing known, as well as the
ability of fifteen or twenty doctors.—
One man told us he had spent $5OO ore
his children without any benefit, when a
few boxes of the ointment cured them.
CORNS. — Occasional use of the oint
ment will always keep corns from grow
ing. People need never be troubled
with them if they will use it.
As a family medicine, no man can
measure its value.
