Picture of (lie old Cougrcsi. In the President'® chair sits Hancock, crowned with a demeanor graceful and splendid, like 'biasing Hyperion on his orbed ihrone.' Prominent in the heroic band, and oldest of their number, is he who at the same time snatched the lightnings from the skies and the scepter from the oppressor's hand. There too is Morris, the financier of the revolution, whose generous ski, advanced on his own credit, paved the way for the victories at Trenton and Princeton, and in the gloomiest hour causcd the American eagle to soar aloft towards heaven. More retired, but not less interented, is that old Puritan, Samuel Adams, 'on his front engraven thoughtaml public care.' IJe was among the very first to exciie popular rebellion against wrong, and he is here to aid its progress and pray for its consummation. Of few words, hut abounding in great and beneficent deeds, he sits in council grave and taciturn, like -grey-haired Saturn quiet as a stone,' his soul firm as granite and unbending before the storm. His more oratorical namesake, John Adams, with watchful eve and ear, is scanning the proceeding* while every look and motion betrays his readiness to exemplify his favorite maxim, *1 had rather be in the wrong with Plato than be in the right with Epicurus.' Lee, with inimitable sauvity and elaborate grace, moves in chivalrous majesty on the scene. Wiiherspoon the divine, *visiblv written blessed in his looks,' is there, with the meekness of a Minister of Jesus Christ, but with a firmness that never quailed in the presence of his country's foe. In th« alternative between the nacrifice of freedom or the loss of life, like the Spartan mother, he would rather have eeen his son brought home a corpse upon liis shield, than dishonored by its loss. And Uutledge, the youngest of the patriots, comes forward 10 illustrate in his own person the anciont apologue of the youthful Ilcrcules, in the pride and strength of beauty, surrendering his entire soul to the worship of exalted virtue. But it is needless any further to specify all, as one man, ever ready to exclaim, our mother is America, our battle is for freedom, purity of purpose is our breast-plate, and the favor of heaven is our shield."—Knicherbacker.

Russia.—Proposals lo liberate the Serfs. Tho National contains the following letter from St. Petersburg, which is not without importance at the present moment: "Every one here is expecting some great event, if any credit is to be attached to the reports in circulation, and which, there is every reason to believe, are well founded. The Emperor yesterday sent for the President of the Senate, dignitaries of the Empire, the Bishop, and the Ministers, and communicated to them the project which he hud in contemplation, for imnit'dintely enfranchising all the peasants from servitude. They would then be placed in the same condition as the Poles, and the people in the provinces of the Baltic, "The young Prince who is very popular at St. Petersburg, warmly supported the plan but the hereditary Grand Duke, who was believed to bo of a weak and irresolute character, supported by his uncle the Grand Duke, Michael, and a great number of ignorant personages, insisted with much firmness on things remaining as they now arc, founding their arguments on the danger which would ariso from giving freedom to inen yet plunged in the lowest state of barbarism, and who have not yet received any of the advantages of education and that on the eve of a probable war, any change of the kind would be impolitic. Notwithstanding this opposition, orders were sent by the Emperor to the civil and military authorities in the different provinces to Sound the feelings of the people on tho subject."

PRIVATK WORTH.—The following honorable testimony respecting Gen. Taylor's private character, is from a source that defies partisan detraction: "At the conference o{ the Consrrejyalional and Presbyterian ministers of Ilillslioro' cotintv, N. H., assembled on the J'lth of June, the Hov. Mr. Lamb, who was formerly a chaplain in tho army under C»en. Taylor, at Fort Jessup, said thai th« opening for him to do good in the army was through Gen. Taylor, and that through tho General's influence a temperance society was formed, by means of which 000 drunkard* were reformed that the General told him that it was all a eham for a man to pretend he could not siantl the damps and heals of the South without spirituous liquors. Gen. T. was a total abstinence man, and the only commanding ofticer who did not drill his troops on the Sabbath. Mr. Lamb also elated that Gen. T. attended his church regularly, and used no profane language. Mr. Lamb closed bv saying tint he wan 110 politician, nor did he wish his remarks to be Ttewed in a political light he merely made them to show that the way for doing good by tracts, by tho temperance cause, and by the preached word, was opened by General Taylor."

Husselville, Putnam county, lnd.,July 17. 1S17. Dr. Wrljht—Sometimes since your aeeni left me a supply of your Indian Vegetable Pills. I have found sni'l Pills to be in great demand lately for the cure of Fever and Ague. Mr. James Boyd has a 5on who has been laid up with Fever and Ague, and had tripd various other remedies, all of which proved of no avail. He determined lo try your Indian Vegetable Pills, and by using one box he is now sound and well. Mr. T. Spencer had a daufhter, Mr. Hush Groves a son, and Mr. Charles Nichols and three of his family, were down at the same lime with Fever and Ague, and had also tried tho various other remedies without effect. Your Indian Vegetable Pills soon restored thein all lo perfect health, lean assure you from what I have seen, your Indian Veeetable Pills maybe relied on for a permanent cure of Fever and Ague.

Yours, respectfully. JACOB DURHAM, P. M„ Also, an Acting Justice of the Peace.

This is to certify, that I was entirely cured of the Chills and Fever,of several month's standing, by the Use of four doses, of four pills each, of Wright's Indian

PAVID BKKKY.

Sugar Grove, Fairfield county, Ohio, Nov. 19,1816. HORRIBLE MISTAKES!! Are sometimes made by confounding one medicine with another and administering the wrong article.— Equally horrible are those mistakes which are made in supposing that all Pills are alike, and that therefore, it is indifferent which are taken, and if one kind is bad all are bad together. This is a very :reai mistake.— There is as much difference between Wright's Indian Vegetable Pill*, and other articles as between midnight and noonday We do not wish any to take our word merely for this statement. Let any one, having taken other medicines, try this. Nothing more will be necessary.

Many persons hnve bepn led away by a coating of Pucar, as if they anticipated that It would remove the nausea of the medicine. But they are generally mistaken. Without the sugar those articles have nothing to recommend them, and would not be sold a single day.— But with the sugar, and by giving the article a name similar lo Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills, they gain a temporary notoriety. Wolves they are, in sheep's clothing, of whom the public should steer sufficiently clear.

Let it be remembered thai Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are prepared with special reference to the laws governing the human body. Consequently, they are always effective In rooting out disoasos. Every family should keep them at hand.

BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS AND IMITATIONS. Remember, thai the original and wily genuine IXDIAX VKGETAM.i: I'lI.LS hare the xrritten signature of WILLIAM WRIGUTon the top label of each box.
