DEBATE In the House of Representatives on the report of the Committee in the case of Mr. Stevens. Mr. T..S. Smith rose, and said that the question was so important, that although every gentleman had 'probable made up his mind ; and from the expression of opinion which we have had, there cannot be .much doubt as to what the vote will be ; yet he thought the occasion ought not to pass with out an expression of opinion of those oppo tied to the proceedings about to be adopted, to show their decided dissent from it, and if Possible to recall the majority of the House from this party error, to a true sense of their obligations under the Constitution— to recall from error those who wore deter mined to prevent a regularly elected and duly canstitutod member of the house from taking his seat. Sir, said Mr. S., I think it a question of much more importance than merely whether one particular individual, whether Mr. Stevens or any body else should occupy a seat on this floor. It is more a question of disfranchisement-of the people of Adams county, than of Mr. Stevens, and that in regarding this question, I cannot but advert to the kind of report which has been made on this occasion, be cause, although it states but one ground for rejecting Mr. Stevens, yet it is careful to go into every argument and statement cal. culatad to raise against him strong preju. dices, and excite party feelings. In a former debate this matter was partially discussed —I speak of the tone of the paper, and as far as that tone is concerned, I shall say nothing now ; but as to its influences in pro• ducing efli!cts on the minds of gentlemen, and leading them to conclusious, I think it important to say f•omethin t .,e. The conetitutionul right of a member to take his seat, was admitted by all to have been peilect in the representative from Adams.—There was no doubt of hie elec. tion—and if he had proposed to take his seat at im earlier period in the sessien there could have been no question about his ad mission. It is in consequence of eubse qoent events, and from his subsequent con• duct, that it is proposed to deprive him from taking his seat in this House, and the sub. ject Cis been referred to in terms not alto gether comporting with the dignity of legis lative proceedings ; imputing to him lan gunge in referrence to this House, that was of a derogatory character, and designed to impress upon us the idea, that he was unfit to take his seat here. Now I hold that for any thing that has happened, alter a mem ber is entitled to take his seat here, there is no mode under our Constitution and laws,but expulsion or depriving him of his rights as a member. -If there be any other mode, I should like to see some gentleman who is en advocate of this proceeding, attempt to show it. Sir, there is none ; and you must proceed against him after admission, by preferring charges, admitting hini to make defence, and show by the grounds of your proceedings, that his conduct has been of such a character as to induce two thirds of the body as to expel him from his seat. But this report puts the rejection of Mr. Stevenson a single ground. It puts it on the ground that ho has resigned his seat to his constituents, and is therefor not entitled to it. Sir, this is a novel idea I Resign to his constiiuents I Where is that resigna- Om"! What evidence have the Committee of that resignation ?—Why is not the evidence stated to this House?—ln what form does it come to tho committee 1 They have not condescended to tell us ; and if they . have evidence of it, it is newspaper evidence whichis no evidence at all. (Mr. BEGINS here stated that the com tmittee had evidpnce that M r. Stevens was .the author of the letter, which they conside red. fetter of resignatson. - The evidence Speckman- was then produced, to Vs that Mr. S. was the author of the 4r.) Mr, BMITH resumed. That I have . t.ot rent, tied so - far as it goes it ie conclusive elf to his being the author of the fetter but it it had been otheilsise, - n n a I r.upposed it I was, it wee but a atop in the course of ar gument ; for I hold that his consiituenta wore not the persons to whom he was to resign. I hold that the body to which he was elected, was the only body to which ho could resign. There are difficulties in the way if it is to be supposed that a man could resign to his constituents. How is this House to have notice of his resigna tion 1 How is the Speaker to bo informed so that ho may issue a new writ of election? Who aro the persons who are bound to give the information, and in what manner shall the fact be made known to the House that he has resigned 7 One of the arguments used in this report was, that the Speaker could not issue a warrant for the election of a per son in the place of Mr. Stevens, because a newspaper intimation was not sufficient no tice of his resignation. It that be not suffi cient evidence of his resignation to the House, neither ought it to be evidence of resignation to his constituents. But what is the amount of this resigna tion which is believed to be of so much importance 7 Mr. Stevens in that paper declares that lie withdraws from the Legis lature, and it is on this term. 'withdraw,' that the whole argument of the report is founded, and if a withdrawal is not a resig nation then the whole argument of the re port falls to the ground.—Withdrawal Why, Sir, did not some forty-three or forty four of us withdraw for a considerable time. and decline to have the oath administered to us, and to take part in the business of this House. Then if a withdrawal was a resignation, we had all resigned, and ceas ed to be members of the House. Does not every member withdraw, it he refuses to participate in the proceedings of the House but for a single hour? Certainly Sir, a withdrawal from the Legislature cannot be considered a resignation ; for it has hap pened over and over again that the minority of the British House of Commons have withdrawn for a long period of time, and no one dreamed that it was a resignation' of their seata A withdrawal irFuo resignation, unless words have ceased to have their for mer import, or the word withdraw has been substituted for the word resign ; and I should' like the gentlemen who compose the majority on this con:tinkle°, to stand up on ' this fl or and show us that the word with draw signifies to resign. Mr. Stevens with. drew from the Legislature. end so did for ty-four members of the House withdraw. We retired and did not participate in the ' proceedings of the House for a whole month, but will any gentleman pretend to say that that was a resignation ? Yet upon this withdrawal and nothing else, upon this declaration to his constituents and nothing else, has the whole ground work of the report of the , committee been founded. But there is, accompanying this declara tion of Mr. Stevens, another, that he sub mits his course to his constituents with a view of taking their advice and direction on the subject. Suppose, when he made that declaration to them, his constituents had im mediately told him that ho must resume his seat, as they would not allow him to with draw ; 'would gentlemen have' refused it to him? From the form in which this com munication was worded ho thought there must be a doubt even in the minds of a ma jority.of the House, __whether it was intended as a resignation. Hie constituents did not accept of it, and it went for nothing. It was no resignation, but a mere withdrawal from attendance on the body. I admit with the report, that it is not necessary that a resignation should be in any set form of words; but while it need not be in any set form of words, it should have all the requis ites of a resignation, in order that the body might be prepared to receive it. The whole current of the practice on this Dub ject has been to send in resignations to the Speaker of the House, because information is thereby given to the body to which the member was elected, and to the Speaker, whose duty it is to issue a writ for a new election. The subsequent conduct of Mr. Stevens which. has been referred to, shows that it was not intended as a resignation, but that he merely withdrew and waited un til his constituents should determine on the matter. He did withdraw and continued to be• absent from the House, until his con stituents met, as they state, , in one of the largest meetingeever held in Adams county, and directed him to return to the House. It was therefore evidently nothing more than a withdrawal, and when his constituents re quested him to return to the House he obey. ed their instructions. I think I see in the whole course of his proceeding more of a fear of the member from Adams taking his seat, than of any disposition to do justice. I think I see in this flimsy fabric, built up in order to form a pretext to an objection—a mere effort to escape meeting him on this floor. The whole ground work of these pretexts is a system of persecution against the gentleman from Adams, and to avoid the danger of his coming into this House, and doing what he most certainly will do if he comes in, - give us some experience in that kind of castiga tion, in reference to the manner of proceed. ing in the House, which he is so well able to do; and it is from this that gentlemen shrink, and in consequence of this they evince so much fear of encountering him. The whole of the course of certain gen. tlomen was to create a prejudice against Mr- Stevens and induce the majority of the House to refuse him a seat on this floor. There is another remark in this report, which I desire to refer to. It is this, that the people of Adams county should have petitioned to fill a vacancy. WhO ever heard of such a thing. Whoa a resignation takes place, it :a and always has been made to the body of which the person is a mem• ber. When a resignation is made it is made to the body which is to act on that resigns tion ; and the constitution never contempla• ted that the people of this State or any por tion of the people,should petition this, House to give them representatives on this floor. It is owing to the strange arguments used in the report that this monstrous conclusion is arrived at, that the. people must petition the Legislature to have representatives on this fluor. This very extraordinary posi lion that the people must come hero with petitions in order, that they may be repro Dented, flows from the fallacy of the argu ment which alleges that resignation of mem bers can be made to their constituents, and that those constituents must give notice of it to the Speaker. But - how did this resig nation take place? IC. took place in the newspapers. To whom was it made? To the people. Not to one or two men, but to some hundreds. Who then, of this number was to give notice to the Speaker? Sir, the only way to avoid all this difficulty, is the usual and proper way—namely. for all resignations of Legislative bodies, to be made to the Speaker of that body. Now it has been contended that this has been a resignation to the people of Adams county, and if it was a, resignation to them, it is their voice we have to look to for our instructions. It is their interest that is con corned, and the (peahen is, whether they shall be represented on this floor, and not whether Mr. Stevens shall take his seat in• dividually. The question' is, whether the people of Adams county consented to this proceeding. They are the persons interest ed, and if this withdrawal be not approved by them, then it is good for nothing, and if they do not accept of his resignation, then wo are bound to admit him. This with drawal was never considered by Mr. Ste vens' constituents as a resignation. So far from it, they have instructed him to come back hero and take his seat ; and. having come here for that purpose, 1 hold that we are bound by the Constitution and the Laws to toimit him. I have thus finally given my views with regard to this report, end when I hear the arguments which shall be made in support at it, I shall express my opinions more at length. Riot its France. The agitation consequent upon the pro tracted ministerial crisis, finally ripened to a serious riot un Sunday, the 12th of May, of which Galignion's Nessenger gives the following account. Yesterday afternoon, the central quarters of Paris were thrown into alarm by the boating to arms of the drums of the Na tional Guards, and the rapid assembling of that carps, as well as the marching of troops of the line toward the Rues St. Denis, St. Martin, dm. and the place de Greve. It soon became known that some serious dis turbance had occured in the heart of the capital, which these preparations were in , tended to surpreas. We learned that about 3 o'clock, from 2( 1 0 to 400 persons, principally dressed in blouses and caps, assembled in front of the house of Messrs. Lepage, the gunmakers, No. 22 Rue Bourgl' Abbe, opposite the Passage Sancede, some of them armed with hatchets, broke through the door, and gain ed possession of about 130 guns, principally fowling piecas—They then left the house for the street, moving towards the quays, on reaching which they divided into several parties, and proceeded to make simultaneous attacks on the posts of the National Guards, at the Hotel de Ville, and the posts of troops of the line at the Palais de Justice, opposite the flower market, all of which, haviug no warning or expectation of any popular commotion, were easily dis armed. The men who assailed the two last then advanced to the PFefecture of Police, but found the gates closed and strongly guarded by the Municipal Guards, warping them of their approach having been received. They then returned to their confederates on the Place do Greve, in front, of the Hotel de Ville, who were endeavoring to raise barricades at the approaches, and particu larly that from the Quai Pelletier, by over turning two omnibuses and laying them across the entrance. These proceedings had taken up some time, and meanwhile it bad been found possible to issue orders from the Prefecture of Police ; several detach ments of horse and foot Muncipal Guards were called out, and by 4 o'clock advanced by different points to the Place de Greve. As soon as their approach became known to the insurgents, those who were ar med went out to meet them and defend the central point of the Hotel de Ville. A detachment of the mounted Municipal Guards was the first to sustain their fire, as it debauched from the Rue des Arois. The head of this party had reached the top of the Rue de la Vannerie, a short dis Lance from the Quay, when a discharge of fire arms laid two of the leading mon low. At this moment other detachments of the Municipal Guards made their appearance at different pointF, and some shots were ex changed, but without any fatal consequences on either side. The rioters gradually abandoned the Quay and the place de Greve, and withdrew in the direction of the Rue St. Avoye. Great agitation, wo learn, reigned at this time in the quarters St. Martin, St. Dennis, and Montmartre, where, however, nothing had oocurred, except the plundering of Messrs. Lepage's shop, and the agitators amounting to between 3150 and 400 werb marching in a long struggling file, without order, towards the Boulewards by the narrow streets to the right of the Rue St. Martin. Towards 6 o'clock the centre of the riots was confined to the lower parte of the quar ters of St. Martin, St. Dennis and Mont more, between the quays and the line formed by the passages du Saumon, du Commerce, du Grand Cerf, Bourg ('Abbe, and saucede, and the rues Montmartre and St. Avoye. Barricades were formed in thelltue St. Den nis near the church de St. Leu, with a fiacre and omnibus both at the corner of the Rues Montorgueil and Tiquetonne ; others were raised at different points of the Rues St Martin. At half past six the bar ricade in the Rue Tiquetonne was attacked and carried by the first batallion of the Grenadiers of the 3d Legion of National Guards, followed by a detachments of the 15th Regiment of the hue. Mr. Leduex, a National Guard, was killed, and several persons were arrested at this point. At about 8 o'clock the National Guards and troops of the line were under arms in great numbers along the Boulevards, the. quays, Place Carrausetztind in varions parts of the capitol netir the scene of the diSor dors. We observed that the poets at all the guard houses were doubled, and income cases tripled, the men being Jrawn up un der arms in front, and advanced sentinels posted, to avoid any possibility of surprise. The Rue St. Denis was at this time very full of people, and down toward the Halle, *the troops of the line would not allow of any approaching the spot. Here occasional shots were heard discharged, to which the troops replied by rounds of ten or fifteen musket at a time. We understand that several people were wounded at this time. All the cafes and shops were shut, the gas was no lighted in he eastern end of the Rue St. Honore. and a barricade had been attempted to be formed in that street, close by the entrnnce of the Rue de Coq, 'where two omnibuses were overturnee. By ]O o'clock troops were in possession of the Marche des Innocens, and many of the surrounding streets. - At half past ten a barricade was nttemp led to be formed at the Pointe St. Dist ache, at the northern entrance to the Halle, where several small streets coming to a point, aflord peculiar facilities for such a defence, and a few shots wore exchanged between the rimers and the troops. A hackney coach driving in that direction was attempted to be seized on to serve for the harricade, but the driver gave his horses the whip, and escaped with his vehicle. At this time a strong force was posted on the Place Victories. 11 o'clock.—We hear of no more barn cedes or attempt at resistance ; the remain ing rioters seem to have dis; r Ned. No vehicles are allowed to approach the scene of the disturbances, and all passengers in the street are desired, on approaching any troops, to pass on without delay. On the next day. Monday the 11th, the ministry was formed, and announced in the Moniteur. Semi for Professor Espq.

READ IN SENATE, JUNE tz, 1839. To the Senate of Pennsylva hia : In reply to your resolution of the Gth instant, I have to inform the Senate, that in compliance with the "resolution to sus pend the work on the Gettysburg rail road,' prompt measures were taken to ascertain "the whole amount of claims on the line, on estimates, or for retained per centage ; also for ' , Merles of officers and agents, for labor or for any other purpose ;" and that during the present week the reports of the officers charged with that duty have been received. These are all the material facts, touch ing the subject of your inquiry, which it is within the power of the Executive to communicate to the Senate. They fully answer the call made on me by the resolu non, unless, in inquiring me to state "why the delay in procuring the money and pay ing the contractors has taken place," the ' Senate intended to require me to communi cate the reason or motives by which I have been governed in relation to this business. If such was the design of the Senate, I must decline to comply with its requisition. Being an independent and co ordinate branch of the government. I do not re cognize its right to make such demand, and also because the time and manner of advertising for and procuring Inane are duties belonging exclusively to the Execu live, in which the two Houses of the Legis lature have neither resonsibility nor share. Claiming to understand and respecting the rights of the Senate, I shall studiously avoid any infringmont upon them ; and claiming also to understand the rights and duties of the Executive, under the Consti tution, I shall take especial care that they shall not be invaded, and will maintain them to the utmost of my abilities. Indepen dence and harmony of action only can be preserved by strictly observing the rights of all departments of the government. This course I shall pursue at all times, without deviation. The resolution for suspen , ling the said work authorizes the Governor to negotiate a temporary loan for the sum of one hun dred and fifty thousand dollars, to be repaid within six months, fur the purpose of pay ing the cot tractors and others. This loan, if nemotiated before the month of July, will fall due before the next meeting of the legislature, and up to the present time no provision has been made fur its redemption. 1 have waited with much solicitude for some legislative action on the subject ofproviding for the repayment of this money at the end of six months from the time the loan may be negotiated , for it certainly could not be the intention of any one that the Executive should be required to promise to pay that amount of money, and to pledge the faiih of the Commonwealth therefor, when he knew that no legislative provision was made for its repayment. Whenever this provision shall be made the matter shall be taken into consideration. DAVID R. PORTER. EICTBTIVE CHAMBER, June 8, 1889.

"PANTALOONERV " IA 0 nevi WOIIII jut coined by one of the Boston Charles B. Penrose. The Philadelphia Evening Star pays the speaker of the Senate the following richly merited compliment. CHARLES B. PENROSE.—Nothing would delight us more than to see this dis. ciuguished statesman and eloquent champion of constitutional liberty, the Representative of his native State upon the floor of the United States Senate. He has richly earn ed this high distinction by the devotion with which he has stood by the interests of the people in the Senate of "Pennsylvania. His eloquence has secured fur hint u fame truly' enviable, and one, too, which is far from being confined to his own State, but which has reached to the widest limits of the Union. The name of Charles B. Penrose is familiar to the pntrint every where. His virtues and and amiebla deportment in private life, are only eclipsed by the bril lancy of his talents, and the power of his forensic eloquence. Several of his speeches ! in the Senate have called forth the admira tion of the whole country ; and the fearless ! nese and manly independence with which he has assailed the monstrous errors of the Federal Government, have alarmed the fears of there tyrants, whilst they have ex• cited their bitterst hate and persecution. When it is known that he is to address the Senate, hundreds flock to hear hint—the lobbies ere crnmned with spectators anxious to listen to his inimitable philipics and thril ling eloquence. Some men in the Senate, whom we could name, have reason to feel Cult his satire can sting.at the same lime that the musical tones of his voice can charm his hearers. No man, Mr. Stevens perhaps excepted, has suffered more abuse than Mr. Penrose, from the ruffein prints in pay of the Federal Government. A bright mink ter their tnalevelnnt shafts, they have been unwearied in their effirts to detract from hie well rr erited reputation. It is in vain, however, as the people of his native State almost idolize him for his noble °Woos in defence of the Constitution, and the incom parable zeal with which he has . ever main• tamed their dearest rights. The time will come when he - will have his rewaid, and we trust it is not far hence. As it is, he has the proud consciousness of having acquitted himself with distinguished honor—of hav ing faithfully discharged his duty, and to the virtuous mao there can be no higher reward. UNEXPECTED El NDN ESS The Reading (Pa.) Eagle state ;that in cutting timber on the land of Mr. John K.effer, of Cumru township, Berks county, three young sqdirrels were found,with eyes not yet opened. They were taken home and placed in charge of a cat, which had recently lost its olt,pring„ they received the samn attention and maternal care as is usually given by that animal, readily offer ing them nourishment. Two weeks have already elapsed, and the little intruders are growing finely, playfully frisking about their (osier mother, unconscious attic dan• ger which,uncler othereircninetances, would appear to environ them. The following beautiful peroration closed the late half centural address of the Hon. J. Q. Adams at New York : "The children of Israel, after forty •or fifty years of toil and suffering came to the verge of the promised land. Then and there Moses as commanded by God, told diem that when they had passed over Jor dan they should - build the altar of the Lord their God with whole stones, and charged the people, slying—"Chese shall stand upon Mount Gerizim to bless the people, and these shall stand upon Mount Ebal to curse. Joshua led them over Jordon, he wrote on the stones a copy of the law ; and all Israel and their elders, and officers and Judges, stood on this side of the Ark and on that side ; half of them over against Mount Ebel ; and in that scene of sublimity, the most awful and tremendous of any that had heppened on earth, he lead all the words of the law, and then cursing the blessings ac cording to all that is written in the book of the law. "Fellow countrymen, the ark of your covenant is the Declaration of' Indepen• dence ; the article of confederation, whence came curses, is our Mount Ebnl ; and 3 our Mount Gerizim is the Constitution of the United States.—(Cheers.) Preserve it in your inmost souls as a sign and blessing ; bind tt as a frontlet between your eyes ; treasure it in your heart of hearts ; think of it when sitting down, when rising up, and walking forth to breathe the blessed air of heaven. Write it on the lintels of your doors and.gate posts ; cling to it as you do to your earthly life ; adhere to it as the cords of your eternal salvation. So shall your children and your children's children celebrate this day fifty years hence, with all and more than all, the blessings which we enjoy—and with all, the blessings that were promised and bestowed upon the children of Israel, for their obedience to the law of God." THE n-Err GovEnnon.—We hear it in. timated, says the Harrisburg Chronicle, that some of the loco tacos are privately urging Thomas B. McElwee, of Bedford, as the next candidate of that party for Gav• ernor of• this State. The reasons assigned for his choice is, that his moral and private character entitle him to it, he being the next best in the State in these particulars, to the present incumbent. The contest will be a spirited one....the Rum•one ardor will be aroused, and he will be the most gin uine Governor, vot ever sot in the chair.

Mr.. Stevenson, from the minority of the commicee in the case of "Mr. Miller's speech." made n counter report to day. It did'nt amount to much, except that Miller wouldn't appear before the Committee, and thnt he did'nt know anything about the speech. 1,000 copies or each report were ordered to be printed. I think the printers who got up the original counterfeit speech should print these documents gratis, and Mr. M iller should be presented with a leath er medal.

Mrs. LYDIA JANE PIERSON. qi o te r nm ese t Both Hennes of the Leg;slature have agreed to adjourn on the 25th instant. 03 -We refer our readsis to the Message of the acting Governor of this Commonwealth, in an. saver to a resolution of the Senate, inquiring into the cause of the great and injurious delay of the executive, in neglecting to take speedy measures to settle and adjust the claims of the injured con tractors on the Gettysburg Rail Road, which he was required to do by a resolution which passed both houses of the Legislature early In the pres ent session: It will ha found in anothcr.rolumn; •the amount of the Mes . sage us our friend of the "Chronicle" truly observes is flint it was none of the Senate's business! "Mr. Pearson ntr red n resolution to the Senate on the receipt of this insolent Message, reflecting in proper terms upon this outrage. The resolution declares that the language is insulting and disrespectful ; it will pass that holy All join in condemning it Its an unheard of outrage." C, The June No. of the LAlllefl Dorm has just come to hand, and fully supports the high literary character it has so deservedly attained, it is but justice to the publigher to observe that it is ono of the foremost of the periodicals published in this country and not inferior to any in the world. y We have received two Nos. of the NonTrt AMERICAN, a new paper published in Philadel phia, of a superior size and containing the greet est variety of useful, intecgsting, end excellent matter. It is ably conducted, end nn ardent sup porter of the Whig cause. We %Nish it every pos sible success. (0-The Election is over, and the people have •Obtaincil a noble, constitutional triumph, over the •violators of the Constitution. Never did the vo `Aeries of mob law and force ninko such an effort ai they did on Friday last; but it availed them nothing; the freemen of Adams county were up in their might; and gloriously have they triumph - od—because their triumph was a constitutional ono. From the first moment it was known, that a battle wee to be fought, between the friends of the Supremacy of the Constitution and the Laws, and their violatora; we were thankful—we were proud, that Adams coiinty was placed in the "fore front of the battle ;" for well we knew, that her eons would do their duty fearlessly and well —and so they have, and the country—aye, the whole country, owes them a debt of gratitude for •the great constitutional victory which they have achieved. Their pbughs were left in half un •finished furrows, and the farmer and his sons, be. took themselves to the polls, as their tethers, did in the revolution, to the field of battle.

FELLOW CITIZENS: Yesterday, you crowned your self with distinguished honor. You have nobly sustained, not your own cause only, but the cause of LIBERTY. lon have vindicated the Constitution and the laws, and signally rebuked the Tyrants who were trampling them in the dust. The in clemency of the weather caul) not deter you from doing your duty. The nation owes you its gratitude ; for the attack upon constitutional freedom which yea have: just repelled, was but an experiment of : deliberate treason, to be extended over the Union if it had' been successful here. Perhaps I shall find no more fit oectsmn than this, to announce to you my determi nation not to be a candidate for the Legis lature at the next election. I cannot sever my official connexion with you without feelings of regret. The important legislative measures in which it has been my lot to participate, have natur ally created considerable diversity of opinion, even among the mast intelligent men. The rapid and complete transition of this State from utter destitution of tree schools, and Collegiate and Academic en dowments to the most liberal provision for each, could not fail to startle many ; as the blind suddenly restored to eight, are chocked by the influx of light. The retention ifi Pennsylvania of the Capital of the Bank of the United States, grated harshly upon the honest prejudices of some, although it furnished us the means of paying the interest of the State debt; and continuing our public Improvements; rind established Philadelphia as the financia! Emporium of the nation. These and other important meas ures, in which I was supposed to bare tuken an active part, have brought against me herce political hostility, which has been sustained by unscrupulous calumny, and has sometimes degenerated into personal hatred. Amidst ail the as saults which unprincipled party leaders have deemed necessary for my overthrow, you have given me your sustaining confidence and most generous support. While I feel conscious that I have endeavored faithfully to Promote your true and permanent inter est, without much regard to my own. I am sensible that my power to do good has not been equal to my wishes. My only regret is that I have not'been able to render my self more worthy of such constituents, and more useful to the State. I speak not TYRONE any h)cal benefits which I have sought to procure for Adams County. It is lordly worth while to bestow much care upon them, while it is yet doubtful whether we have a country so governed as to make it a fit inheritance for posterity. With lively feelings of gratitude, I relin quish official, to resume my professional em ployments. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Thaddeus Stevens- Gettysburg, June lb, 1830.

'UST received, a further supply of this value- SIP ble medicine by the subscriber, which has already acquired a celebrity which finir others ever has in so short a time received. This Balsam of Health, is a medicinal and vegetable compound, warranted a safe and effectual remedy not only for the Dyspepsia, but for the whole train of die. eases resulting from and connected with a disor dered condition of the stomach and liver, or de rangement of the digestive functions, such as general debility or weakness, flatulency, loss of appetite, sour eructations and acidities of the atom. ach, costiveness, head ache, jaundice, hatulous and bilious cholic, &c. As a Family Medicine, it stands unrivalled and should be possessed by all heads of families particularly , by those that are subject to a constipation of the bowels, it operates as a gentle aperient gives tone and action to the stomach and bowels, and enlivens and invigor• ates the whole system, This medicine does not contain a particle of mercury, but is composed altogether of'vegetable matter, which renders it perfectly harmless, and can be taken at all times, and is no hinderance to business, nor any proper customary habits. Now testimony of cases ate frequently received, a few are subjoined, certificates from highly res. pactable persons and many more could , be produ ced, but it is deemed unnecessary, as if these will not be believed neither will a boat of certificates be credited. Therefori, the proprietor earnestly requests the afflicted to give his Balsam of Health a fair trial and he is confident that they will not be disappointed. The public are respectflffly requested to read his directions in which they will find many cures performed and apply for his medicine, which can be obtained of his Agent in this town by whole sale and retail. S. H. BUEHLER. Mr. John S. Mille—This is to certify that I bought of your agent at Gettysburg several bottles of your valuable Balsam of Health, which completely cured me of the Dyspepsia. I had taken much of other patent Medicines, but found nu relief, until I made use of your Balsam of Health, which effected a radical cure, and I do re• commend it to all those who are troubled with that obstinate disorder Dyspepsia. NICHOLAS WEAVER. Gettysburg, Pa. Nov. 2, 1836. Mr. John S. Miller—Sir:—l do certify, that I have been afflicted with Dyspepsia for the last four or five years, which has been increasing on mo ever since to such a degree, that for the last three or four weeks previous to my using your valuable Garle gant'a Balsam of Health, I am certain I had not eaten one ounce a day of any kind of food, neither was I able to sleep with any kind of comfort during the time, because of a severe pain in the stomach. In fact, I had given up myself as incurable, as I had recourse to so many different remedies without any benefit. At length I heard of your Balsam of Health being advertised, and was induced to try it. I accordingly bought one bottle from year agent, (Wm. Miller, Winchester.) After taking the first three doses, I found the stomach to retain in some degree what I eat, and the pain in a great measure subsiding. After using only one and a half bottles I found myself entirely well ; and can now eat any thing I have an inclination for, and can sleep well at night. It was surprising to see the quart. tity of morbid matter I discharged from my stomach, which 1 am inclined to believe was coated thick with it. which no doubt rendered nil diet indigestible.
