N ATIONA f. A. M. CONVENTION
TO TrIE PEOPLE OF THE
LINITED STATES.
Nine years hare elapsed, since a free citi
zen these States, was torn from his fami
ly, and from the circle of his neighbors and
friends, iu obedience to the mandates, and
by the hands of m ister spirits of Free-Ma
sonry; he was borne, by day and by night,
tome than one hundred miles, thrlgh a
populous section of the State of New York
to the Canadian frontier; where he was im
mured in a national fortress, under the
eharge of national officers, members of the
Masonic lodges; and there, heirer deprived
of counsel and friends, and deprived of the
benefit of trial by jury, he was condemned
secret'y by the laws of Free. Masonry.; and
having been, in his last moments, refused
the consolatthos of a Bible, to smooth his
pathway to eternity, he was inhumanly
sunlc,at a midnight hour, in the deep waters
of the river Niagara. Public indignation at
The time,- instead of being poured upon the
Masonic tddges, for machitriting and warm
tog into life this most nefarious crime against
the laws of Heaven and of mankind, was,
through the great power arid influence s the
extensive combination and close alliance a
mong the Free-Masons, most wantonly turn
ed from the known kidnappers, against the
honest citizens who had the humanity to
search for their lost neighbor: public indig•
nation was, for a long time, strangely turned
from the contemplation of the murderous
act, to frown on the patriotic men, who
sought to expose the crime,and to bring the
offenders to trial; and the public press was
by Masonic influence so far turned from the
proper object of its high rebuke, that, while
it dis►egarded; or justified, the lawless con
duct of the Masonic lodges, it almost every
where vilified and abused the honorable men
who sought to bring the heinous criminals
to the bar of public justice. The men, who
contrary to lavoirad robbed the community
ore freeman, were excused. while those who
would make them answer, according to law,
fir depriving a wife of her hushand,and
dren of their father, wore violently censur
ed, and condemned.
To sustain themselves under the attacks
of this wide spread and secret combination
against the laws of the land,and against their
own fair reputation, the people, in the region
first aggrieved, were forced to combine to.
gether, and unexpectedly to try the strength
- of a virtuous yeomanry in conflict with a
power, whose vain boast had been so often
repeated, as to have become generally be
lieved, "that it had withstood the shock of
tyrants; it had survived the fall of empires,
and the ruin of cities and nations; and it
would survive the wreck of time." How it
called to its aid the rebuke of the wise,whom
it had misinformei,and the sneer of the sim
. pie, whom it had deceived; and the reproach
of the deluded, whom it lied in-secret tore.
sworn! How it magnified its great ones,and
invoked the shades of the honored dead,
whom, in their green youth, it had cheated,
with a taper light arid the help of a band•
age, into the vile mysteries of its temple of
king Solomon! How it despised the noble
bilnd of Anti Masons, and denied thorn the
common privileges of the press, and of the
freedom of speech, and of peaceably meeting
in public,to treat of the bearing of the lodg
es and their acts on public affairs! How it
denied the right to utter, or to publish,their
sentiments against Free-Masonry; how it
interrupted and broke up their meetings,for
bade them the use of public halls,and public
newspapers; and forced them to silence un
der this Masonic oppression, or to establish
Anti- Masonic newspapers for themselves a.-
lone!
The struggle which then commenced be
tween the freemen of western Now York,
and (he secret combination of Free-Masons,
soon extended to the neighboring States.—
By eschewing the party politics of the day,
and aiming only at the overthrow of the
lodges, Anti-Masonry prevailed over all op
position in the western part of New York,
and has obtained signal triumphs in Massa
chusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Ver
mont, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. ln four of
these States Anti-Masonic Governors have
been chosen—Vermont, Rhode Island,Mas
sachusetts, and Pennsylvania, and laws have
been already enacted against Free-Masonry,
in. Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vermont,
and Connecticut. By becoming entangled
in the wily schemes of selfish politicians,
schemes, planned under the garb of friend
ship with a view to its destruction, Anti-Ma
sonry has suffered painful loss in N. York.
Encouraged, however, by success in the a
bove named States,and by unwavering con
fidence in the righteousness of their cause,
'Anti-Masons propose, once more to appear
in the field, fin their principles, in the gen
erous contest for President of the United
States, believing that whoever may win, the
virtuous and the brave alone deserve the
crown of victory.
The Supreme Ruler of the universe has
deprived them of the opportunity of again
preferring the honored name of W 31. WIRT
for their leader; but, in return they have
the savor of his irreproachable life, his lof
ty intellect,nnd his pure and unsullied fame;
together with the firm purpose to rally for
their principles on 801110 new candidate.
pc the candidates whom the people choose
to honor, Anti-Masons make no war with
any, save the sworn dependant of the Ma
sonic lodges; and they seek alliance with
none, Who repudiate their principles, or dis
approve of their object; or in any manner
uphold the baneful society which, in the
violent abduction and murder of a freeman,
fur the laWful publication of his sentiments,
and of his reasons for them, has rashly, struck
a mortal blow at Liberty.
Anti-Masons regard all secret combina- -
lions of men, especially of the favored clas
ses, with a jealous eye. Formed with no
view to the general gond, and actuated by
the meanest selfishness; having power to
elevate one of the emnbination,without mer

alted his worth, they constitute the very
worst class of those "combinations and as

extrao-dinary liwre, to put in the place of

awe the regular deliberation and action of
the constituted authorities."
History furnishes many examples of the
mischiefs of secret societies; but, under a
free Government, no example of their use.-
folness. The Masonic lodges have been in
the last century fund in collision with all
the principal Governments of Europe,
France, England, Spain, Portugal, llotand,
Italy, Germany, Switzerland, and Russia
During the current year, in England, a here

prince of the blood, aho is commander-in
chief of the army, and also G rand Master of
the Orange Lodges, has been constrained
suddenly to leave the kinadom, to avoid the
searchin g inquiries of a Committee of the
house of Commons, having first rellised to
answer the inquiries of the Committee; and
the Secretary of the Grand Lodge also rib
sconded, to evade the pursuit, making for
him, to compel the production of the records
of the doings oldie Grand Lodge. So deep
was the general conviction of a conspiracy
in this secret society, or armed confederacy
of 200 000 men, to subvert the established ,
order of the succession to the 136 tigh throne, !
that all officers and soldiers oft he orally have
been forbidden, under the severest penalties,
to join the secret Lodges; and the Commit
tee of investigation made their report to the
(louse of Commons in September last, rec
ommending that "any person holding office
under the crown, and belonaing to any sorie
ty, joined together by secret oaths,- signs,
or tokens, should be dismissed from his
qfice," which is precisely the ground taken
in these states by the Anti-Masons. In view
of the criminal and treasonable obligations
and acts of the Grand Lodges, Ant i- 11acons
report, recommend, urge,and strive by law
ful means to convince the sovereign people,
that any person holding office of, or under
therm and belonging to any society joined
together by secret oaths, signs, and tokens,
should be, after proper warning, dismissed
from hie office; for they have seen the power
of Free-Masonry displayed in many aggra
vated violations of the public law; and have
felt its terrible scourge in the most wanton
defiunation of their acts and purposes and
good name, and now having succeeded, by
the blessing of fleaven,in bringing the State
of Pennsylvania, and other large portions of
the United States, to entertain just views of
the horrid obligations, and monopolizing
spirit of the Ledges,and their abettors, Ant i-
Masons are encouraged to proceed boldly
in the hope ere lung of persuading-this whole
country: to maker one and the same estimate
of the emptiness of Masonic charity, and the
selfishness and profligacy of Masonic fac
tions; to one and the same estimate of that
system of folly, which was revealed to the
world by the hand of William Morgan, end
was then indelibly stamped by notorious acts
of Grand Lodges, with the official seal of
Free-Masonry, in the life's blood uf the same
William Morgan.
Many think this is done already, and that
the further efforts of Anti Masons are need
less. To them who really think so, it can
be no hardship that Anti-Masons proceed
to act upon the principles which have, by
confession, obtained a just and complete
triumph over the powers of MaSonic dark•
ness. If so be Free-Masonry is down, nev
er to rise again, that is a fact in support of
the prowess of Anti-Masonry which, instead
of disarming its hosts, should encourage
them to persevere, while the Grand Lodges,
and General Grand Chapters, Councils, and
Encampments continue to hold their regular
meetings, from the Capitol of the Union to
the verge of the new States. Anti- Masons
may well doubt, whether the flattery of com
plete success, paid by many to their cause,
is not a device of the adversary, intended to
lull them into false security, before they
have effected completely their determined
purpose. They grappled with the mon
strous power of the secret lodges, at its full
height; and, through many a hard fought
buttle,t hey have gradually reduced the proud
society to the necessity of lurking in its na
tive darkness throughout a large portion of
the United States; reduced it to the neces
sity of subsistin g on what it has hoarded in
former years of prosperity; and to the hard
necessity of relying, for the most part, on
the arm of defence afforded by the more
worthless and abandoned of its deluded
members.
Anti-Masons cannot forego the advanta
ges they have gained--cannot lightly throw
away their successes; but they must fellow
them up to final victory, until Free Masons
become heartily ashamed of all connexion
with the affiliated order, which is sworn to
"murder and treason only excepted," or
"not excepted," according to the shocking
depth of the mysterious-Degree; until every
young man is taught to rely, not on the se
cret management of a selfish brotherhood,
for an honest living, but on the exertion of
his own powers in generous competition for
the patrogage of the public; and, until the
reproaches, which have been plentifully east'
upon its opposers, are hurled back npon the
head of Free-Masonry, that sell-styled "An.
cient and Honorable Fraternity," which
pretends to initiate youno• t , men into the
sacred mysteries - of all antiquity and into
fellowship with the revered names of sages, .
and heroes, and saints of all countries and
generations; and is itself traced to an origin
as base as its penalties are barbarous, in an

under bloody penalties.
"Hitherto, the Anti- Masot in the Inn
unge of J(IIIN QUINCY ADAMS," though
armed with a principle as pure as any that
ever animated the heart of man; though
stripr,ling against an institution foul with
midnight murder, perpetrated in strict con
fUrtnity to soul-ensnaring oaths and obliga•
lien-, have yet been a feeble rind persecuted
minority; persecuted, for uttering the cry
of indignation at a series of atrocious viola•
owls of the laws of God and man; persectit
ed, for summoning the energies of virtue in
the hearts of their f •flow citizens, to extin
guish a secret and lawless conspiracy, in the
heart of the community against the equal
rights of their fellow.men;" persecuted, we
add, for their manly oppo!..it ion to an institu
tion of which W3r. WIRT solemnly declared,
"I have no hesitation in saving, that I con
S.
;ider it at war with the fundamental princi•
pies (lithe social compact, as treason ngatost
society, and a wicked conspiracy against the
laws of God and man, which ought to be put
down."
In putting tt down—.Anti•F.lnsons do not
mean to abridge the right of Free. Masons,
to play off their secret fioleries, to trumpet
their false mysteries, to proclaim their puny
charities, to magnify their centennial anti•
quity, to sound the praise of their noble and
royal brethren and ti) glorify their dark tem
ple; but Anti-Masons mean only to express
thoir own opinion of such folly, vain boast
ing, and deception, and to stop the adminis
tration of Masonic oaths. They do not per
secute co- Masons. They allow them, to
meet and to consult, and publicly to parade
their finery uninolested,using only their own
unalienable right, to judge and to speak, to
deliberate and to act in regard to this mat•
ter, according to the liberty which they
have inherited from their fathers, and which
the laws of our country allow. If they re
ject the names of Free-Masons from their
ballots, they are not sworn under a penalty
of death, to prefer Free. Masons. It is but
their free exercise of a freeman's right, for
which they are an , wei able to no man, and
least of all to Free-Masons. If they nomi
nate their own candidates for public office,
they exercise their rights openly, which the
Free. Masons do secretly; and if at this time
they should nominate a candidate for the
Presidency, who has been, or who has not
been, named by any other party, they will
do it, not to disparage any candidate who is
independent of the Masonic obligations; but
s itchy to present and to urge upon the people,
the necessity of guarding against an institu
tion, which has set a foul example of violat
ing the dearest rights of freemen, and con
tinues to administer illegal oaths; an institu
tion which is defended by murderous penal
ties, and stained with the life blood of an A
merican citizen not yet avenged.
Anti-Masons are part and parcel of the Demo-
ciacy of the United titates, aiming to overthrow
one of the most powerful and corrupting Institu
tions of vain aristocracy. They are decided oppo.
!tents of Nlonopolies,and specially so of that,which
in the name nicharity,has hoisted its members in
to a largo proportion of the lionors,and trusts,and
emoluments of the country. They are plain mon
and simple republicans, who cannot relish the
grand honors, and high sounding titles of mock
nobility, conferred on the Kings and High Priests
of Royal Arch Masonry. Anti Masons constitute
the purest Democracy, struggling with a secret
combination of influential mm10)1110(0 the Lynch
combinations, which are evanescent, while this
grasps the earth for its dominion, arid all time for
the length of its reign. By their opposition to the
Masonic Lodges, Anti Masons do not sever the
ties which bind thorn, hear t and hand,to the body
of the people,and to the great Democratic Party of
the Nation; but they prove themselves most jeal
ous of the equal rights of the NATION, and jealous
of the secret encroachments of the scw; they prove
themseß•os among the foremost of the Democracy
to contend for "THE SUPh EMACY OF THE
LAWS," and for the protection of individuals in
the portbct enjoyment of their unalienable right
of the freedom of speech arid the freedom of the
press, to utter and print, to circulate and expose
the mysteries of iniquity, without the fear of us.
sassim.tion, or the secret assault of an unlawful
mob, or combination of mon; they prove them
selves among the foremost of the Democracy, to
contend for the purity of elections, and the equal_
administration of justice, against the corrupt in.
fluonces of a society that pervades the U. States,
and that cherishes in its bosom obligations of the
darkest hue, and, also in its bosom the men who
have kept those obligations, nearly to the letter,
in violation of the holy law.
Antiinasons aro not indifferent to the other
groat political questions, which agitate the public
mind; but they insist, first, on maintaining the
supremacy of the laws over the combination ofthe
Lodges, not unmindful of the violence, in the
murder of Win. Morgan, threatened to all private
citizens in the midst of their lawful pursuits. Ho
wins a native of Virginia, and a citizen of N.Yrrk
whose name is held in honor in the circle of his
personal friends, us one of the brave defenders of
Now Orleans. 'rho deliberate blow that burst
upon him, for the publication of the truth, and of
his private sentiments, respecting Freemasonry,
was a mortal stab at the liberties, common to
every Democratic Republican, which should be
told and proclaimed in the voice of that mighty
cataract, whose waters drank up his blood, until
signal retribution is visited upon the masonic
lodges. The antimasons wore the foremost of
the Democracy to lift the Egis of the laws for his
protection; and persevering, to bring hls reckless
assassins td legal trial; and when they found the
avenues to justice, in the possession of men, com
bined with the criminals; and found the courts,
thronged with the retainers of the lodges; and
found the prosecuting Attbrnies, cut off by legal
forms from an opportunity of proving the murder,
and prevented by every sort of obstruCtion from
bridging but very few of very many criminals to
trial, until they escaped through the statute of li.
mitation, the antimasons appealed from the ma
gistracy to the whole people, to the Democracy
of the .country; that, in the plenitude of their so.
vereigii power, redress might be obtained for this
,injury to their ,Pr'rvate rights, and personal liber.
ties, which redress could not be obtained of any,
nor of all the great repositories of the people's
power, the Judicial, the Executive,and the Legis.
lutive united.
..Antimasons saw and felt to the quick, that by
the same lawless violence, with which tho mouth
of one freeman was hushed in death, because it
ventured boldly to pronounce the honest senth
merits of a generous and patriotic heart, the life
of every freeman was put in jeopardy : that tiro

ritosrucrus OF THE
Congressional Globe.
THE success of the experiment we have
made to furnish a succinct history of the
proceedings of Congress, from day to day, with
sketches of the" Debates, induces the undersign
ed to persevere in their plan to extend and per
fect it. The) have resolved that the Corigres
sional Globe shall not only embody the parlia
mentary annals of the country, but shall also fur
nish an Appendix. which will contain the finish
ed speeches of the prominent speakers on the
must important subjects written out by members
themselves; Iron) the notes and printed speeches
of the reporters.
The Congressional Globe, with an Index, will
be published weekly, upon double royal paper,
in octavo form as heretofore, at One Dollar for
the Session. It may be subscribed for •eparate
iy. The Appendix of finished speeches will, al
so, he published for One Dollar.
It is probable that next session of Congress
will continue nearly seven months; it so, the
work wiil conrain between four and five hundred
pages, and will be the cheapest publication per
haps in the world.
The next session of Congress will probably
be the most eventful one which has occurred for
many years, and will certainly be replete with
interest, and its course will have great influence
in fixing the destiny of the Republic for years to
come. Immediately preceding, as it does, the
next Presidential election, and containing the
leading minds of all the contending parties in the
country, deep and abiding interest will attend
the debates. The whole drama will be faith
fully exhibited in the Congressional Globe and
the A ppendix.
We have already provided for our reporting
corps, eminent ability and skill in one branch of
Congre , s, and a e expect to obtain an adequate
reinforcement of capable persons in the other by
the time it meets, to fulfil our own wishes and
the expectations of the members. No pains nr
costa on our part will be spared to accomplish it.
As the work will be continued regularly, and be
made permanent, au'llenlic, and therefore high.
ly useful, all who take an interest in the politi
cal affairs of the country will do well to begin
their subscription with the next session.

TO TIIEPUBLIC
THIS medicine has been before the pub
lic for three or four years past and has ac
quired probably a greater degree of pima
Tartly, I linn any article ever nelbre introduc
ed into general use. It coatains no noxion- ,
article, nor mineral or metallic substance
and is caiefully compounded so as to always
he of uniform strength and consistency.
It will keep good for years and grows
more pleasant by age. Children are gel.-
orally very fond of it, and none will refu to
rake it. It is so well adapted to the various
complaints of children, that every family
shou'd always keep it in their houses, as
most families who have used it, now do.---
Sailors and travelling persons should always
carry it with them.
This medicine is put up in round bras
moulded vials of two and 'Our oun e s each,
with the words "Da. D. JAYNE'S CA1(371-
NATIVE BALSAM" blown on them, and the
written signature of D. Jayne to the bottom
of each direction—none others ar© genuine.
This medicine is not recommended as
"Panacea" to cure all diseases to "which
flesh is heir to" but as a remedy in Diar
rh am. The beginning and latter stages of
Dysentery, Cholera Morbus, the Spasmod
or Malignant CHOLER A, Cramps, Cholics,
Sick and nerrousileadache. For the Slim•
slier Coin ola int or CHOLERA of children it is
unrivalled by any other combination ofou•di•
cute ever used. It has repeatedly efiected
cures, when every other means had failed
aided by the attendance and skill of the a
blest physicians, that could be procured.—
Obstinate Diarrlacas of) ears standin ,, , have
been removed by the use of a few bottles of
it; violent Dvsenteries arrested and Cholera
11orbus cured. The Sp:isms attending the
.llalignant Cholera have always been sup
pressed in from one to three minutes time,
and that much dreaded and fatal disease re
peatedly cured without the aid of any other
article of medicine. In fact its power over
spasmodic diseases of every kind seem to be
absolute as it has never yet been known to
fail of giving relief in a single instance.--
ripina pains, tormina and tenesmus Choi
ics, Cramps &c. are also soon removed by it.
Hundreds of females and sedentary per
sons can attest to its superior excellence in
sick and nervous Headaches as two or three
teaspocmfulls generally gives them relief in
the course of half an hour.
Children laboring under the Summer
Complaint, have been cured in a short time
tiller all known remedies had failed:—those
too who have been so extremely emaciated
that their bones almost protruded through
their skins, and all hope of recovery aban
doned, by all who saw them, have by a few
weeks use of this medicine been restored to
perfect health.

sam, I behave it to be a very happy combination,
and a useful medicine in many complaints which
almost constantly occur in our country, such as
Bowel Affections of children, Cholic, Cramps,
Looseness, Dyspeptic Disorders of the Stomach.
Coughs, and Affections of the Breast, together
with all those diseases attended with Sourness m
the Stomach; and believe that the regular physi
cian.Urill often find it a useful remedy in his hands,
and one that is proper for domestic use, and can
be put into the hands of persons at large with
safety. WM. BACON, M. I).

Complaints, and have not the least hesitation in

Baltimore, March 27th, 1833.
Dr. JAYNE—Dear Sir.—You ask inn what proofs
I meet with of the efficacy of your medicine. I
can safely say that I never prescribed a medicine
for Bowel Complaints that has given me so much
satisfaction, and my patients so speedy and per
fect relict as this. Whenever introduced into a
family, it becomes a standing remedy for those
ailments, and is called for again and again; which
I think a pretty good proof of its efficacy and use
fulness. In the Summer Complaint of children, it
has frequently appealed to snatch the little vic.
tuns, as it were, from the grave. "It saved the
life of my child, and of such and such a child," I
have repeatedly heard said. In dysenteric uffec.
tions of adults, I have time and again seen it as
like a charm, and give permanent relief in a few
hours, I may say in a fbw minutes. In fine, it is
a valuable medicine, and no family should be with.
out it. Respectfully,
M. L. KNAPP, M. D.
From Dr. L. Lawrence
Codurvillo, Oct 9th, 1832
Dr. D. JAYNE—Dear Sir.—Tho curative powers
of your Carminative Balsam appears to bo fairly
estiblished in all Bowel Complaints, &c.; and
from the experience I have had with the medicine,
I am disposed to think very favorably of it. I
have lately tried it on one of my children', who
was severely handled, and with complete success,
without the use of any other medicine. So lin as
my practice has extended, I think it a desidera
tum in medicine, esp,,cially among children, who
are apt to be affected 'this way; and which every
practitioner in medicine has found to be a very
troublesome disease. Respectfully;
LEONARD LAWRENCE, M.D.
From Dr. Charles Hammond

Dr. Juhn S. Miller, Frederiektown, Illd.
I do hereby certify that I had this last
spring and summer u constant pain in my
stomach, and a great weakness in my kid
neys, and pain across my eyes, fur which I
used a good many remedies without giving
relief. l was at last recommended to try a
bottle of Garlegant's Balsam of Health, pre
pared by John S. Miller. I accordingly
made use of one bottle, which I procured of
his agent in Hagerstown, which restored me
to my god health again, and urn now as well
as ever I was, and you are at liberty to
make it known for the benefit of those aillick
red in the same way.

Hagerstowe, Sept. 1834.
About two years ago I was severely af
flicted with the dyspepsia, which I had for
the lust fifteen years, previous to the above
named time,which was very much increased
by my having a blood vessel ruptured upon
my lungs, occasioned by lifting—which in
creased my complaint, dyspepsia and gener
al weakness and debility to such a degree,
that for two years previous to my using the
Garlegant Balsam I never eat a meal but
my stomach became so painful that I had
immediately to throw it up. Seeing Garbo
gimes Balsam of Health advertised, I was
induced to try a bottle; after taking the very
first dose it appeared to strengthen toy Sto
mach; and every close of the first bottle help
ed me so much, that in the course of a few
days• my stomach begun to retain and digest
every thing I cut. I continued to use tho
Balsam until I used seven bottles, which
cured me entirely, and restored me to per
tact health, which I have enjoyed ever since,
.ind not before for fifteen years. I cheerful
ly recommend it to all persons who are af
flicted with dyspepsia or debility of stom
ach. Given under my hand this 11th day
of January, 1834.
HENRY LOUTH AN,
Frederick county, Va
Dear Sir:-1 have used the Balsam of
Health which I procured from you, with
great benefit, if not with entire relief.—
When I procured it I was sorely afflicted
with dyspepsia, attended by all the distres
sing symptoms, headaches, giddiness, heart
burn, and the thousand nervous affections
which accompany it, in its worst stages.—
At times such was the debility occasioned,
that I was bed ridden. I think I can say,
that the first rebel, if not the entire cure,
was produced by the use of the Balsam.
