Jan. llih. ls(;o Ul-lt-21-12m. from which mankind sutler over a large part f-tke globe, is the consequence of a diseased aet'on in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm of vegetable decay. This exha lation i3 evolved by the action of solar heat on wet soil, and rises with the watery vapor from it Whil the sun in below the horizon this vapor lingers near the earth's surface, and the virus is taken with it through the lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irrigating poison on Ihe internal viscera and excreting organs of the body. The liver becomes tor Did and fails to secrete not only'ihia virm, but also the bile from the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate in the circulation, and produce violent constitutional disorder. The spleen, the Kidneys, and the stomach sympathize with the liver, and become disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our organism, as if in an attempt to expel the noxious infu sion, concentrates the whole blood of the body in the inter nal cxeretories to force them to cast it out. The blood leaves the surface, and i uslics to the central organs with congestive violence. This is the Chill. But. in this effort it Vails Then the Fever foHows, in which the blood leaves the cen tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if in another effort co expel me irritating poison through that other great ex cretory Ihe skin, in this also it fails, and the system aban dons the attempt exhausted, and waits for the recovery of strength to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These are the fits or paroxysms of Fever and Ague. Such con stitutional disorder will of course undermine the health if it is not removed. Wc have labored to find, and have found, an antidote, AY Eli'S AOLE CUKE, which neutralizes this malarious poison in the blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it from the body. As it should, so it does cure this afflicting disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does what is of more service to those subject to this infection. If taken in season it expels it from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps those who use it free from its attacks ; keep- the system in health although exposed to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but protects from the great variety of affections which are induced by this malignant inlluence, such as Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical Head ache, or Billious Headache, Billions Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheu matism, Gout, Blindness, loothace. Earache, Catarrh Asthma Palpitations, Painful Affections of the Sj leen, Hysterics. Col ic, Paralysis, and Painf ul Affections of the Moniach and Bow els, all of which, when arising from this cause, will be f ound to assume more or less the intermittent type. This "Aock Cuke " removes the cause of these derangements, and cures the disease. This it accomplishes by stimulating the cxeretories to ex pel the virus from the system ; and these organs by degrees become habited to do this their office of their own accord. Hence arises what we teem acclimatation,. Time may ac complish the same cud. bat often lile is not long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this Ague Cuke" does it at once, and with safety. We have great reasons to believe this is a surer as well as safer remedy for the whole class of diseases which are caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which has been discovered ; and it has still anoth er important advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as well as good.

Syme on Everett. John W. Symc, Ksq.,1he very worthy gentleman who now presides over the editorial columns of the Raleigh Register, at whose head flaunts the name of Bell and Everett, did in 1S54 preside over the destinies of that " old and staunch " Whig paper the Tetersburg Intelli gencer, and from the editorials of that paper the follow irg remarks are extracted : From the Petersburg Intelligencer, March 2, 1834. The WUIg Party. Wc have for sometime been under the impression that the new phase which the slavery question ban assumed in Con gress would play the mischief w ith the old party organiza tions, baaed as those organizations were, npon th recogni 1,011 m their respective platforms of 1852 of the Compromise ot 1K)0. We never for a moment believed that the Free boilers who embraced the Democracy platform had a parti cle ot sincerity m their declarations, or that they would not seize the irst opportunity, after getting their share of the spoil?, of thrusting out the cloven foot which they cunning ly concealed under their garments atthotime. Neither have wc any great confidence in the body of the Northern W bigs, because ihe inlluence of Wm. H. Seward over thera has been too obviom to have escaped our notice. With a lew distinguished exceptions the Whigs of the non-s!aveholding States have been found steadily opposed to the constitutional rights of tho south, as it regards their peculiar institution. They almost unanimously resisted the Fugitive Slave bill, aud have given no indication since of the slightest change in their position. Wc had hoped, however, notwithstanding all the discouragements, that tha Whiff yot ty at the Noith would, under tho wise counseld of such men as Everett, Choate and others of liko stamp, bo brought to consider the follies and hazards cf their anti-Southern dem oustiution, and would, upon reflection, retrace their steps and become united yvith the Whigs of the South in a great national party. We expected with confidence that EDWARD EVERETT would, of all men, have signalized his devotion to the conservative interests of the couutry aa they are em bodied and guarded in those great enactments of the thirty first Congress, known collectively as the Compromise of which he always avowed himself the ardent friend. If he had stood firmly up to the crisis if he had proven himself true to his post-in the time of trial there would have been a chance of getliug tho Whig party safely over tho Abolition breakers amidst which it was strugeline. BUT HIS INFLUENCE HAS BEEN DIRECTED ONLY TO PRECIPITATE THE DISASTER WHICH HE COULD IJAVPi AVERTED. Never did an eminent man commit bo yvrctched a blunder never yvas a statesman so lamentably at fault s is Mr. Everett in his course upon the Nebraska bill. He has loat a splendid opportunity of consolicbating liis fame of blazing brightest amongst the shining lights of the land. He has, with a strange infatuation, abandoned the lolly position which ho so long held with honor to him self and benefit to his couutry, and descended to unite him self with a sect whose doctrines, maxims and practices can not but be the opposite of bis. WHEN WE SEE SUCH A MAN SURRENDER HIMSELF TO THE FREES01LERS AND ABOLITIONISTS, AND TAKE U1S PLACE ALONG SIDE OF SEWARD, AND CHASE AND SUMNEB, we have nothing to do but to express our astonishment at the spectacle, and regret so lamentable an instance of instabil ity in one of the most gifted intellects of the age. The defection of Mr. Everett, and of tho National Intelli gencer, has played havoc with the Whig party. IT IS USE LESS TO D1SOU1SE THE FACT THAT ABOLITTOJISM AND FEEESOILISM HAVE WITH THESE ACCESSIONS, EFFECTUALLY BROKEN THE TIES WHICH BOUND TOGETHER THE WHIGS OF THE &OUTH AND OF THE NORTH. The former cannot fraternize with the lat ter, arrayed as they now are against one another upon the vral constitutional principle which is embraced in tho Ne braska question. There could be neither consistency, pro priety, or biucerity, in any union between thero after the proceedings of the Northern Whigs upon this cpication. For some days rumors have been rife of a meeting of the All INTELLIGENCER FOR ITS DESERTION OF THE SOUTH. We know not whether these rumors bo well found ed or not, but this wc will sjy, that that is they shall be confirmed, yve shall be gratified at the stand taken by the meeting, and shall cheerfully cast in our lot with the South our own South and abide the consequences. Inclination no lest than duty impels us to the determination. For the Journal. Oifw Democracy. .'iirsuaut io notice, there was a large gathering of t!i2 Democracy of Onslow in Jacksonville, on Monday, the 1 st day of October. The meeting was organized by culling Bryan South erland, Esq., to the Chair,, and requesting Zadoc M. Cos ton to act as Secretary. Afrcr an explanation of the object of the meeting by the Chair, O. JL Sanders, Esq , moved that a committee of five be .t)ointed to prepare resolutions expressive of the some t the meeting, which motion was carried. The Chair announced the following committee, viz : Jr. Edward AV". Ward, Otway 13. Sanders, John F. Muni! I, M. Ji. V. liedd, and li. LI. Henderson. Upon the retirement of the committee, calls were made for J. It. Eoy, Esq , who responded in a speech of half an hour, much to the satisfaction of the audience. The committee having returned, reported through their Chairman, I r. Ward, the following resolutions, which, being read, on motion of Mr. Foy, were read again, and voted on ut-iatiia, and adopted unanimously. Resolved, That John C. Breckinridge and Joseph Lane aro the true representatives of the National Democracy, and that we heartily endorse tho platforjn of principles upon which they stand. JIM h:ed, That we hereby ratify, approve and endorse the course pursued by the majority of the North Carolina dele gal ion, both ; t the Charleston and Baltimoro Conventions; mat to nave reiiiameu auu tMiiiiaieu witn rnoso liogua dele gates, headed by Parsons and Soule, would have been a to- al prostitution of everything like political integrity aud par ty organization.

Immediately nfter the adoption of the resolutions, calls were made for Col. Eotte W. Humphrey. Col. Ilum- irey ppoke an hour, with evident eilect, to an attentive auditory.

On motion, the Wilmington Journal and Goldsboro' Rougk Notes were requested to publish our proceedings. On motion, the meeting adjourned. JL SOUTlIEliLAND, Chairman. Z, M. 'osto.v, Sec'y. Mr. Plcllae Lrougltt up Standing. Mr. Mellac in the coarse of hi3 speech, at the Court I louse, last Tuesday, was attempting to show that North Carolina Democrats had indorsed the doctrine of squat ter sovereignty. . And, in proof of it, he stated that he and Col. Person (Lion. Saml. J. Person) whom he saw sitting near, had, with" the whole North Carolina dele gation, voted several times for Danl. S. Dickinson in the Daltimorc Convention ot liiaz. Whereupon lion. Mr. Person, arose, and stated that inasmuch as Air. McRac had called his iiarae, in that connection, he begged leave to interrupt him to ask a question, and asked : " Did you, sir, in itsoz, or uo you now, believe, that a Territorial Legislature ha3 the right to abolish slavery ?" Mr. McKac was proceeding to make a lengthy ex planation, when his ir terrogator. (tormentor) begged him not 16 dodge the question it" was a plain cue, and required a plaiu answer. - Mr. Mcilae, at length, stated that as a lawyer, his opinion Was that a Territorial Legislature possessed no such right, and confused that, in this, he differed from Jadge Douglas. - Then, Eaid Judge Person, you giye that opinion as a lawyer ; now suppose you give us your opinion " as a politician ;" which produced a great laugh at Mr Mc Rae's expense, but who, as soon as the merrimeaWiad subsided, protested that he held the same opinion as a " politician" that he did as a " lawyer." It. appears, from this, that Mr. McRae by a " fecun dity of sophistical imagination," to use his own lan guage, attempt to convict genuine Democrats, by evi dence which is inapplicable to himself ; another instance of a new species of logic invented by himself for his own purposes, which, lor tho want of a better name, we denominate " the artful dodge." - Goldsboro' Rough Notes, ilk iast.
