Old Lineism and Free Whiskey. The demoralizing effects of the old line victory in this county are now plainly visible to every observer. The full, flowing tide of free whiskey, the reeling and staggering, and swearing of drunken men the disgusting scenes of debauchery daily witnessed in our streets, are but the legitimate results of the old line victory. They have fought for whiskey, and now they have it they have fought for doggeries, and now they have them they have fought for drunkenness, and now they have it they have fought for the liquor traffic, and now they have it they have fought to make families wretched with drunken fathers and husbands, and now they have them they have fought to degrade man from his high estate to the level of the brute, and have accomplished their object. The combined powers of their political organization the influence of their political principles are wholly and entirely demoralizing calculated to degrade man, to sustain and foster those institutions which would crush out every vestige of freedom, purity and virtue from the hearts of the people.

Since the late election more drunkenness has been observed in our streets more swearing and roudyism, have been seen in one day, than were witnessed in sin months tinder the reign of the Republican party.

Such will ever be the results when the wicked rule.

/ST Some of the old liners seem to be very much excited in consequence of the re-opening of the doggeries on the heels of their victory, and most lustily deny that it is a result of their party power. Be quiet, gentlemen. Judge Hurley and the Irish whiskey dealers are but carrying out the principles you have advocated during the whole past season. Don't complain of the liquor dealers, and the rum shop keepers don't complain of drunken men you have united in political action with these men to accomplish this very object, and you have no right to utter a single word of complaint. You imported hundreds of Irish to carry your measures now bear the fruit of your labors with becoming meekness. When you see a drunken husband or father, exclaim, "behold the handi-work of old lineism." AY hen yon see a tide of men rushing to the rum shop, exclaim, "this in the work of our party." When you hear the language of drunden roudyism, shout forth, "these are but the sounds uttered bv the voice of old lineism."

Utter not a single complaint, ye old line sons of Temperance—ye old line Templars ve old line Christian professors, lou have placed the bottle to your neighbor's lips, and they have quaffed even to drunkenness. But remember, the WOE of Habakuk will vet be thundered from the skies.

'Before and Since the Election. Previous to the iale election the old liners expressed the deepest sympathy for Judge Ilnrly, whose business had been stopped by the liquor law. Their tender compassion was deeply moved that the old man bhould be thrown out of business.

But since the Judge has re-opened under the sanction of their vote and victory, and many of their men are seen staggering from his door—they now with beautiful consistency denounce the Judge as a d-m-d old rascal

What a comment on the honesty of old liners? They court a man for his vote and influence, and curse him 4vhpn of no longer ucse to them

The Vote of Indiana.

The vole of Indiana in the late election, falls short of that of 1854 about 50,000! The old liners have polled twenty thousand less, and the Republican party thirty thousand less than they did last year. Little indeed then, have the old liners to rejoice over. There is yet a majority of ten thousand Republicans in the state of Indiana, and that majority will be polled at the next Presidential election.

There was not a single State officer to To elected in the late canvass—hence the apathv of the people. Old liners, thirsty for the spoils, and true to their principles of the "loaves and fishes," put forth every possible exertion to bring out their entire f-ti'cngth. In the next Presidential election great principles will be involved, and the Republicans of Indiana, true to their country, the constitution, and to freedom, will gather in their might and redeem our state from the oppression and crushing thraldom

of old lineism.

It is not fair— it is not honest, that the law should bo enforced alone for the benefit of one man—to place $500 in his pocket, when it can hot bo in any other particular Fpr_ this old liners alone are responsible

JSSGR A few days after the election, Mr. an old liner, feeling somewhat grieved that Judge Hurley should re-open his rum-shop under the sanction of the old line victory, called upon the Judge and 'in quired if he thought the old liners sanction ed his business by the late election "Yes, brother replied the Judge, "we had free whiskey inscribed upon our banners we marched beneath those colors, and I am carrying out your principles." Brother was overwhelmed with the answer and turned upon his heel.

Junge Hurley was right. Old liners marched under the banner inscribed with free whiskey, and he is but acting in accordance with their doctrines, and carrying out their peculiar principles of Temperance, to-wit the use of whiskey just as every man's appetite may dictate.

The Mechanics' Institue.

Those who wish to revive the Mechanics' Institue, will meet at Naylor and Wilson's Office, on Tuesday evening next. The object is to secure a course of Lectures for the winter,

NEW GOODS.—C. H. Cloud & Co. have just received and opened a large and perfect stock of dry goods, ready made clothing &c., for the fall and winter trade. We bespeak for Mr. C. an increase of his already extensive patronage, as we arc satisfied he sells good goods, and at the lowest possible prices, to make it a living business. Call at the old Binford corner.

jgST The advertisement of II. Fursell & Bro. has been handed in, and will appear in our next issue. These gentlemen have received a fresh stock of Jewelry, Books, Stationery, Notions, &c. Call and examine their stock.

GODEY'S LADY'S BOOK.—We have received this excelleut Lady's Magazine for October. In fashion plates and descriptions/ Godey can't be excelled out-doors, and in this particular alone it is a cheap work to any Lady. Terms $3 per annum. Address L. A. Godey, Philadelphia.

THE RIDING MATCH.

The Riding and Driving match came off to-day according to notice. Tho weather was unfavorable, and the attendance was not large, but a sufficient number of the citizens were present to show that there is a feeling throughout the county in regard to the noble science of horsemanship.

The young men of the county, and especially, Messrs Points and Horner, deserve credit for the interest they manifested in getting up the match, and for the liberal premiums offered. The young Ladies acquitted thcmselncs well. So well in fact, that it was difficult for the Judges to decide between them. But after full consideration the Judges made the following awards:

BIDING MATCH.

FIRST* PREMIUM.—Miss THOMHSOM— Prize Saddle. SECOND PREMIUM.—Mrs. HENRY MILLER —Silk Dress

THIIID PREMIUM.—Miss MARY INGERSOLT. —Silvnr cup and Diploma. Misses MARY EARL, ANNIE EARL, SUE IXGERSOLI., SUE JENMSON, and SUSAN POWrcns weie each awarded a Silver Cup.

DRIVING MATCH.

Miss MARY EARL was awarded the Fiist Premium, and Miss THOMPSON tho second.

JfetT We invite the attention of our Lady readers to the Card of Mrs. EVERETTS, of Cincinnati, who has taken a Room at Mr. C. E. Vanarsdall's, where she is prepared to do all kinds of Fashionable Dress Making, on short notice and after the most approved Eastern styles.

Corey's Corn Planter.

The superiority of Corcy-'s Corn Planter over all others has been acknowledged by many of the best judges in our country. As a labor-saving machine it cannot be surpassed. Our farmers jvdio are at all extensively engaged in their business, should not fail to secure one for the coming season.-— They will find it greatly to their advantage both in forwarding their business and saving labor. Tho right to manufacture should be obtained by some Mechanic in every county in the State.

has been very prevalent. The writer w%8 raised in an ague and fever district, and had the miserable disease for nine consecutive summers his personal acquaintance with the malady is therefore complete'.— Some years since I adopted a modo of treatment, which my own practice has never failed. I have had this advantage however the disease, does not prevail in Lexington, and nay patientaare from other States, or from points more or less distant from Lexington." I have given my prescriptions however, to Physicians and others living in Alabama, Missouri, and other States where the causes of the disease exist, and they report very uniform success.

1'

Being so often called on for my prescriptions, several years ago I published a short article on Ague and Fever, in the Louisville Medical Journal, and gave my recipes. I also had published 100 extra copies all of which I have given away except one.— Believing that by publishing my views in the news papers, I may perhaps relieve much suffering, the following is submitted to all who may be afflicted by this wearisome sickness. *,

4

First, as to a preventive. My observa-

fully satisfied me that a forest of trees of some extent between the dwelling house and a creek, river or mill pond near by, will almost completely protect the family. My opinion therefore is, that if all persons settling in an ague and fever country would build their houses in the woods, and only clear a small yard and garden around the house, and open their farms at least a quarter of a milo from their residences, they would for the most part escape ague and fever.

Treatment—Sulphate of Quinine is the reliable remedy, and is the chief ingredient (except Arsenic,) in all quack ague and fever nostrums. There can bo no question that Quinine will stop the chills but I am satisfied that alone, it has very little power to prevent their return.

In the use of Quinine there are two common errors the one is to give the Quinine just before the chill is expected the other is to stop giving it so soon as the chills stop. Chills and fever are almost always ushered in with a chill or ague.

It is far better to give the patient an emetic of Tartar Emetic, or Ipecac, or with the two combined on the first appearance of the premonitory symptoms of tho chill or ague. So soon as the first paroxism of the chill and subsequent fever is over, then give a dose of cathartic medicine. My medicines are as follows 1. CATHARTIC PILES, VIZ pECirK.—Calomel, CO grains.

Sulphate of Iron, finely pulv. 60 do Socotrine Aloes, do do 60 do Mix with whiskey or alcohol into pill mass and make 36 pills. If there is any good reason why Calomel should not be used, then substitute Comp'd Extract of Colocynth, 60 grains.

AGUE TILLS—RECIPE.

Sulphate of Quinine, 60 grains. Pulvis Doveri, 60 Soc. Aloes, 30 do Capsicum, 30 do Mix with water and make 36 pills.

My rule is to give from one to four of the Cathartic pills every night at bed time, unless the patient has the chill or fever on him at that time. If that be the case, give the Cathartic pills as soon as the fever begins to subside.

It is the intention of the Cathartic pills to excite and to keep up a regular healthy action of the liver and bowels and the dose must be proportioned to suit the case. Two

must

I again repeat that I give a sufficient dose ^r»f the Cathartic pills every night, or as di­

tions in the low lands of Virginia, have many locations in Montgomery county. It

rected. AGUE PILLS.—Commence every day 8 hours before the time for the chill or ague to return, and give one pill every two hours until the patient has taken six pills. So soon as the chills stop, the patient need not take more than four of the ague pills a day. In 19 cases out of 20, you will prevent any return of the chill at all by following the course above advised. So long as there is any disposition of the chills to return, always begin to give the ague pills eight h'rs before the time for the paroxism. But so soon as they have stopped begin at 6 o'cl'k in the morning, and give a pill every two hours until the patient has taken four pills. The patient should continue to take the ague pills for a week after the chills stop and it will be very well for him to take one pill every morning for some days longer.

of the Cathartic pills is my ordinary dose, iy, the question of politics is carnad to They

be continued until the patient

is well. It will not ordinarily do to stop the use of them under a week. As before remarked, Quinine will stop tho chills, but unless the system is cleansed out, tho appetite will be variable tho digestion imperfect the strength will not be built up, and the chills will return.

If patients will pursue my method of treatment they will completely eradicate the disease and be restored to good health

I will afdd that the combination of the Pulvis Doveri with the Quinine &c., pre vents all the unpleasant effects so often ex perionced after taking Quinine.

I will add one thing more as to (He fe-

Correspondence of the Journal.

Politics in our Common Schools. ALAMO Ind., Oct. 23,1855. Mr. Editor :—As a lover of Education, and a strong advocate of our Common School System, it becomes my painful but impeHous duty to offer a few thoughts to tti^jpjublic in regard to politics being bro't into our Common Schools.

What I mean by politics in schools is this that the teachers of our public schools must undergo a thorough examination in regard to his politics before he can take charge of the school of his choice.

This, lamentable to say, is the case in

commenced about two years ago, when the temperance excitement first broke out^in this country.

The teacher who had the boldness, the nerve and the good sense, to take a stand in favor of the cause of temperance and a prohibitory law, was that moment proscribed by a certain class of our citizens—but for fear I may not be xinderstood, I will state who I mean by "certain class of our citizens." I most emphatically mean the whisky-loving part of community. Now don't misunderstand me, when I say "whisky loving," I mean what I say, for I know it both by observation and experience, and what I have seen and felt, I know to a dead

certainty. Why do I know this because drunkards, and their poor soulless advocates have hnrled their curses and anathemas into my face, only because I was a temperanca man, and taught the principles of "touch not, taste not, handle not," in my school. All other qualifications they acknowledged I possessed, but the great qualification, that of being a whiskey soaked bloat, I was unfortunately minus*— hence I could never get their support while whiskey run hot thro their veins. This was emphatically made the test of my qualifications, and to please three or four regular built topers, all the rest of a populous and wealthy district had to surrender. It must not be omitted here that these noted individuals were popular sovereignty men Kansas and Nebraska men of the deepest hue, and one of them told me with his own mouth, that he hoped the day would soon come when slavery would be the "peculiar Institution of Indiana."— This is popular sovereignty with a vengeance—three men ruling and dictating for a section of the best of Montgomery county, and a poor coward trustee, fearing his popularity among his whisky brethren, quietly submitted to the dictations of these men, thrusting aside the petitions and appeals of the majority of the district.

This political test has been carried into our common schools ever since the temperance excitement commenced, ond now that every good temperance man is branded as a Know Nothing, a midnight assassin, belonging to the dark lantern party, these same old liners protest giving theii support to any school teacher whom they suspicion as having any connection whatever with the Know Nothing organization. In a certain district in Montgomety coun-

such a pitch

that the old liners utterly refuse

to send their children to their present teach er whom they believe to be one of these unfortunate Ivnovv-Nothings.

This teacher is an old experienced one, having labored incessantly in the common school room for many years with much success, but when making up his school in that peculiar district met with no success among the old liners—they not subscribing a single scholar. But unfortunately for these poor misguided old liners, there happened to be enough Know-Nothings, Republicans, and temperance men in the district to support a large school, and this poor proscribed Know-Nothing teacher enlisted their hearty support, and is now teaching and has a flourishing school.

One old liner who imagines himself very influential in the district, lias already proclaimed that not a dollar of public money shall be applied to the paying of any Know Nothig teacher/ 'I ..Now, Mr. Editor, who are responsible for this state of

affairs

Who has thus

drawn the line of demarcation who commenced proscribing teachers for holding particular views in regard to the politics of his country Wo answer these selfsame old liners, who cry out "persecution against Catholics proscription to all for eigners 1" And has it come to this, in our free country, in this boasted land of liberty, the country the old liners brawl so much about, that a school teacher m-ust be an old liner or be tumbled out of his profession

Notf what most be done? We must have sthools and eclo'61 tieecfi&rs. Tho

time has come when all our districts should be supplied witfi: good and efficient teach ers, and must

But we say let no fblitidal seitffpment disqualify our teachers.— Proscribe no man because you suspicion him to be a Know Nothing/ Ask him no political question, but ask him if he is truly and well qualified. But more anon.

For the Journal.

MR. E&foftA'fif oliv charming, excellent, one judicious young friettd, known as the Mississippi Lawyer, is about to depart for the snnny regions of the.South, it will not be out of place to pay him bur respect and we mvst admit that we have been delighted by the transcendant rays of genius which burst forth from his master mind. And now that lie is about to leave ns, (perhaps forever,) some will even distill the dew drops from their friendly eyes but as for us, we have no such sympathetic feelings for one who has made himself what he is. He came amongst us wrapped in the robe of Southern chivalry, but he leaves with rags of immortal shame festering in his flesh. He came among ns exhorting the young men to Temperance, morality, and virtue but he leaves us a firm, undaunted advocate of free whiskey He came among us as a distinguished I^awjei from the South but alas he leaves us as a "two-penny" politician. He came among us and was respected until by the scurrillous libels and impious lies which have flowed so freely from his pen, and fell so often from his lips, that he leaves us like one whom an odious plague or jaundice, fanatic phrensy, or lunacy, distresses.

And now as our parting advice and counsel to one that was once respected and honored by all who knew him, we would say, go thy way and sin no more repent and become purified wipe the scales from your eyes, and see that— "Not hell, with all its power to damn,

The Eureka State is American to the back bone. She has given a large majority for sound principles. The following is some of the new,s brought by the Northern Light:

The Know Nothing State ticket is elected. The candidates have from 3,000 to 5,000 majority. The Know Nothings have a majority of one or two in the Senate, and twenty in the Assembly.

The new administration goes into office on New Year's day. Nearly all the mining counties, particularly those in the north, went for Johnson. San Francisco and the southern coast counties of Santa Barbara, Los Angelos, San Diego, and San Bernardino (Mormondom) went for Bigler.

The total number of votes cast in San Francisco was 12,724. The State officers elect are—

Governor—J. Neely Johnson. Lieutenant Governor—R. M. Anderson. Justice Suprfitne Court—(Long teimj H. C. Murray.

Justice Supreme Court—(Short term) D. S. Terry. Comptroller—George W. Whitman.

Treasurer—Henry Bates. Attorney—W. C. Wallace. Surveyor—John A. Brewster. State Printer—James Allen. The Governor elect was formerly a resident of Evansqille, this State.

Outrage upon a Printing Press. A gentleman residing in the lower portion of the State, and now visiting this citv, has informed us that an outrage was perpetrated not long ago upon the office of the Cape Girardeau Expositor, edited and published in that place by Mr. P. L. 1' oy, formerly of the St. Louis Democrat. Some one entered the office building at night by a back window, and broke up the press so badly that the issue of the paper has necessarily been suspended until it can be repaired, or a new one gotten to supply its place. The author of the outrage was soon run down and apprehended by the town authorities, and proved to be an Irishman who had been engaged at day labor for some time in Cape Girardeau, or its vicinity. His excuse for the act was that he suspected the editor, notwithstanding his foreign birth, of cherishing principles and inclinations favorable to Know Nolhingism. At last accouts, the Irishman was in limbo, and shortly to be made answerable to law for this over-zealous and impressive manifestations of his political philosophy. Could this determined Paddy have had the power of multiplying himself into a mob, our Cape Girardeau frieuus perhaps would have been edified with an addition of some tremendous native and "furrin" riots, such as have enlivened our principal cities about election times for some time back—St- Louis Republican.

I have used Prof. O.J. Wood's Hair Restorative, and have admired its wonderful effect. My, hair was becoming, as I thought, prematurely gray but by the use of his "Restoritive," it has resumedits original color, and I have no doubt, permanently' so.

I would therefore recommend its use to every one desireous of liav-„ ino- a fine color and texture to hair.

Respectfully youra. WILSON KING.

I am prepared.— therefore, to recommend its use to all who are desireous of having a beautiful head of hair. ...... I am, sir, yours, &c.,
