CORRECTIONS,
Our printers made sad work of our edi
torials in our last issue, as indeed we are
constrained to acknowledge, is frequently
the case, In onr leader of last week,
there aro many errors, some of them very
gross, such as, give our party, instead of
join our party;—rum poles, instead of
runt holes ;--property guarded suffrage,
instead of proper!) guarded, &c &c. In
a paragraph which follows our leader, the
types make us say Republican party where
we had written People's party. On this
last misprint the Globe seizes, as it does
on every thing else that is likely to disturb
and weaken the union of its opponents,
and flings it with emphatic force at the
Americans. We are determined to know
no men as Republican or American in this
contest. We care only for principles, no.
thing for names. This we reiterateu week
after week for the last four months ; and
our American fellow-workers for the over
throw of the Globe'a corrupt party, occupy
the same position and nave uniformly
made the same declarations. Nay, they
took the lead, and we are merely following
their patriotic example. If the Globe has
not yet learned the fact, let it now be in.
formed that it is neither Americnne nor
Republicans, us sack, that have nomina
ted Mr, Blair for Congress, but the people
without distinction of party. W e can also
inform the Globe that the people were not
directed or influenced in their choice by
Mr. Blair's former party name, but by his
pure life, commanding talents, and literary
attainments; and above all, by his long,
able,and fearless advocacy of the "American
System," inaugura:ed by the immortal
Clay, and of the Free Soil principles of
the equally illustrious Jefferson.
'Our excellent county ticket was nomina
.ted on the same principle, because the se•
lord candidates are honest and capable
men, steadfast in their faith in the intelli
gence and virtue of the People, and deter
mined in their hostility to political corrup
tion and wrong .

A PILL FOR TAX—PAYBIOI I 111 Ir The Globe has discovered that
It is well known that Dr. Houtz voted, : Mr. Blair, in a recent speech, advocated
in the legislature, last winter, to raise his the doctrine that "Congress has the power

but will choose legislators from their own
ranks—men accustomed to the slow accu
mulations .of honest labor and business
pursuits, and satisfied with a reasonable
recompense for their services in any em
ployment or position. Dr. Houtz may
think it a small matter to take seven dol
lars a day for his aye and-no labor at Hit,
risburg. Doctors often take larger fees.
But unfortunately for Mr. Houtz's chances
of re-election, his constituents are not near
all doctors, but persons who are required
to render an equivalent for their pay. He
will find that these hones; people, how.
ever much they may appreciate him as a
Doctor, will not be likely to desire his se r.

soriptiorasts.
In our last issnewe say, "S. Steel Blair
and R. 13, Wigton are thoroughly imbued
trr 010 y - mulched ra suchier maim 'trt MY!
este." The Globe copies this sentence;
and though it does not venture to deny
Messrs. Blair and Wigton's "attachment to
sound American principles," it sneers at
the "oil Republican doctrines," and asks
in a tone of triumph, Who will doubt the
proscriptive Republicanism of these gen-
tlemen ? 13eiore his readers answer this
question we hope they will refresh their
recollection of the old Republican party,
its °tight and doctrines. A very little ex
amination into the origin and principles of ,
that party, wiil prompt many that are now
called Democrats, to answer the Globe's
question by propounding the following :
Wes not Thomas Jefferson, the father of
Democracy, an old Republican and the
great leader of the old Republican party ?
Did not that party change its name soon
after its organization and call itself the De
mocratic party, a name now claimed, but
without a shadow of right, by the Locofo
cos ? Did not the Old Republicans, under
their new name, retain their first doctrines
and principles intact for many years, up to
the close of Jackson's administration ?

Republicans, believed to and defended by
the wisest and best men during the purest
days of our national existent 1 Did not

proscriptive? Let the: Globe answer. If
all these great and good men were proscrip.
tive, so is S. Steel Blair, for ' , he is thor
oughly imbued with the same pure, oil
Republican doctrines. Similar questions
might be put to the Globe in reference to
the policy of protecting our own manufao
tures, mechanics and laborers against the
ruinous competition of foreign. pauper la
, bor. On the subject of filibusterisin, and
the forcible acquisition of foreign territory
still more searching interrogatories might
be propounded. But we forbear for the
present. The foregoing questions lead to
some of the distinctions between true De.
mocracy and Locofocoism. if they shall
be answered in a distinct. unequivocal
manner, we will be greatly disappointed,
and agree to drop the subject.

MR E orTort—
.Public ol a." a correspondent of the
Globe, lays, 'the tenderest part of a man
is his pocket." We think it wrong to any
this of men in general. though we admit
that some men are more sensitive in their
pockets than in their consciences. and Pub
licoln is one of them by his own showing.
Hut we incline to the opinion that be it too
severe upon himself in this matter. Ile
had just been trying to write a eulogium
on Dr. Houtz, and felt troubled by the un
pleasant little circumstance of the Doctor's
having voted twenty thousand dollars of
the people's :Honey to pay for Champagne,
six-dollar brandy, turtle soup, oyster sup
pers. &c., for our self-denying legislators.
Though the pocket is not the tenderest
part of all men, it is of some, and no inan
likes to have his so rudely touched as Clint;
and this truth so disturbed the mind of
Publicola that he no doubt, uttered the
above grave slander on himself and the
rest of mnitkind, without thinking of the
prasise force and a pplcation of whet he was
writing. It will be noticed that Publics.
la's notice of the Doctor is very brief, nod
we do not wonder at it. It must he nn

he is a Doctor who has wounded you in
your "tenderest part." We sympathise

him with the reflection that the Doctor will
not be sent to Harrisburg ligain to behave

ing I rolled on Dr. Ely, of who
pronounced it CANCER, and prescribed a wash
o r sog , of toad mid bread poultices Finding
tihntter, as a 0, ..omett.cit county, who
also pronounced the disease Cancer ncl gave
me internal and external remedies—the l•ittet.
consisting principally of caustic; but all to no
purpose, at the disease continuod spreading to•
word the nose. I next used n preparation of or-
Redid. in the form of salve. This for a time
choked the disease, I ut the inflammation soon
• increased. I next called upon Dr. Steller or Sr.
ille, Bedford county, who also pronoun
ced the disc.° to be Cencer, and applied a Salve
said to he a never-WHIT remedy, but it had Ito
effect whatever in checking the spread of the
sore. In December, of the same year, the dis
ease had eaten away a greater part of my eruct'
hp. and had attacked the nose, when I teem to
Cincinnati where I consulted Dr. It. S. Newton
of tile Electic Medical College. Ile pronoun
ced the disease 'a cutaneous Cancer, superin
duced by an Wont nate ute of mercury." Ile
applied mild attn ointment, and gave the inter
nal remedies. My face healed up, but the in
Gemination was tint thoroughly removed, In
1 Feltrunry, 1857, he pronounced me cured, and
I left for home. In April the disease again re
turned, and to violent was the pain that I could
not rot at night. Late in May I returned to
Cincinnati. ani og tin place I myself under th e
charge of 1)r. Newton, With whom I remained
until September, daring which tittle to used
Rol Only Saaaddi ad in
checking the disease, but when I rat tuned
home there were still throw discharging ulc e r.
upon my glee. I ',undiluted using So wion's
preparations, end also medicine that I got from
Dr. Ely, but the Cancer continued wowing un
til it hod eaten off the left side of iny nose, the
greater portion of my left cheek, and hail a:tat:k

give relief; but that a cure was impossible. In
March, 1858.2 bought a bottle of "Blood Sear
cher," but I must confess I had no Midi in it.
I was very wtak when I commenced taking it;
but I found that I gained strength day by day.
and also that the ulcers commenced drying up.
I continued, and when the third battle was ta
ken my taco Wa s healed as if by a miracle. I
used a fourth bottle and I have been healthier
since than I have been for the last seven years.

NEW EVIDENCE.
Being afflicted with a grerions Tetter on the
arms and face—after trying many rem edits
which utterly felled to cure—l was pursuaded
by W. M. Barris & Co. to try Lindsev's Impro
ved Blood Searcher ; and now, six-wheks after
finishing the s rood bottle, pronounce myself
cured.
The totter broke out, something over a year
ago, on the inside of my toms, extending trots
the elbows down to the wrists; also on my thee,
immediately rotted the mouth and chin, and con
lined to he apes:feet torment to me until( core!

almost uve less, owing to oho cracks and sores
on them, liable to bleed at any time on the

so itchy that I could szarcely prevent tearing

and feel it due to Mr. Lindsey, and to the pub

that others like myself may be benefllted by
using his valuable medicine.
