$•» A VKKT MIK*CIJ!.—A geutlwnau who, for three yew* past, hud l«n "fflieted with dysfcer*ia, yesterday Elated that he had been «ntirvlv cured by the use of Hurley's Sarsa toaiill*. He bad previously tried Hull's and SaLd's. but Hurley's wW the only effectual remedy, Go to E&cua, Hyde, 4 Co., 37 Main •trvoi. and procure a trial bottle.—[St. Louis Evening. Mirror.

P. M. Donaelly ia the only agent here for the *ale of this valuable Medicine, jU Wc advise all to try the great mvdicatncntam.

The Blind Asylum and G. W. Ame A few days ago, we published a li of charges preferred against G. W Ames, Superintendent of the Blin Asylum, by thirty-one of the pupils that institution. Sinct then, Mr. G/W A ate has published a long letts ia the State Sentinel, denying a part the charges, and trying to explain awa the others. Though, upon the whoh we think the Superintendent makes rather lame defence, we are unable 1 laj his letter before the public. Tl Journal, of Thursday last, contains ai other letter from the pupils of the As^ htm, reiterating the charges, and adt ing one or two others. Not knowtr the facts in the case, we, of COUTE decline giving an opinion in the nu ter, merely desiring to call public tention to the existence of the diffiet tyt»nd leaving to the proper authorft to investigate the matter thorough] and to vindicate the right But of thing we desire to speak, and that the unwise policy of permitting pc tics to have any influence in seleeti men to fill sueh stations.

Thi question t# be decided by those hanr the appointing power ia, does he belc to the right political party?—fitness the position being a matter of seco ary importance. Mr. Churchman,fev managml the institution in questi from its first opening, if we mistakfji rendered himself pecuKarly belayea all the pupils, and no doubt of his ficiency ever existed, so for as we can learn. The whole "head and frost of his offending" seems to have been his not belonging to the dominant party. That was enough, however much of merit he possessed—whatever fitness for the position—however much the good of the institution demanded Lb continuance—this bone of our national prosperity and glory (Party) demanded his removal, and that demand was inexorable "Wo remember the excitement it produced, and the many harsh things then spoken by the opposition, and we remember our own private feelings on the subject but the the Dem-

Know Nothings VS. Platforms. The foundere of the American Party having long witnessed tod closely watched the corrupting tendency of party strife, and the fearful increase of foreign influence over American lustitutions, conceived the basis upon which these things might be checked, if properly and carefully guarded. Their plan was a practical one, and stood u£on a platform truly American, embracing principles which are the only safeguard to American liberty, and when once properly understood could hardly be supposed to meet with opposition from any one claiming to be American, unless that opposition was prompted solely through selfish motives by designing political demagogues. It is evident from the very nature of the declared principles of the American Partv, that they were determined to ignore all issues which have divided the Whig and Democratic parties, leaving their members unfettered on all subjects, save that which would strengthen the bonds of brotherhood, and thereby perpetuate the union of the States

If either party had attempted such a movo, that move would have died the very hour which it was conceived. *r«v

HEAVY ROBBERY IN CHICAGO.—Mr. S. D.

Mr. C. has no clue to the robber or robbers, as the small sa chel, containing the money, and which he kept close to his person, must have been taken while he was drowsed—Ex.
