Council, as agent, with a petition from the
assembly of Massachusetts,. or more care
fully speaking one day, when a petition
from the provincial assemblyof Massachu
setts Hay, already presented by him, was
taken up. He was treated with great in.
dignity insulted grossly abused by the
.Solicitor General Wedderbournc. He bore
it without any' sin of emotion. All eyes
were upon him. No change, or ''shadow
of change, went over liisTace. His friends
Vivcro amazed at his forbearance. They
,vondercd at his equanimity they were
almost ready to reproach, him for it. Such
-.untimely -self-command could only proceed
from indifierence to 'the great cause or
so -they 'thought from a strange moral
insensibility. On his way from the place
of humiliation, they gathered about him.
'He stopped r!ic stood still his manner
-look voice were those of a man who
has quietly concentrated every hope under
heaven :ail his energies upon a single
point. "His master shall pay for it," said
he, and passed on. '
The other circumstances grew out of the
same affair. As a mark of especial consid
eration for the Privy Councils, the doctor
. appeared, before them in a super!) dress -after
the fashion of the time. He wore it
bravely; he looked uncommonly well in
it. Finding, however, that his courtly
garb, thus, worn, had been of no avail as
a refuge or shelter to him; that, 'on the
contrary .'it had only made .him a better
mark, and exasperated his adversary; that,
worse than all, his considerate loyalty had
been misunderstood for a pece of dirty
adulation or, worse yet for a piece of
wretched foppery he went, Ion leaving
'the council, straight way home, threw the
dress aside, and from that hoiur never wore
ritagain, till the day on which hW went,
-Nvitifiill po wer, into the court of the Bour
bons, to sign the treaty between France
and America-the United States of Ameri
ca! What must have been his feelings?
JJhat paper gave the death blow to Britfsh
4lbminion over the western world. It was
. dWl the threat was at peace with him-

SWAIM'S PAN ACE FOR THE CUKE
30 F SCROFULA, OR KING'S EVIL,
RHEUM AT IS M, Ulcerous Sores, Syphilis, and
the host of painful and hitherto incurable affections
resulting therefrom ; White Swellings, Diseases of
the Liver and Skin, General Debility, Sc., and all ;
Diseases arising from Impurity of the Blood.
This medicine is particularly : recommended as
an alterative and a purifier of the ' Blood. It gives
a tone and vigor to debilitated Constitutions, which
invalids are unconscious of until they have expe
rienced its effects.
It is also recommended in Diseases where the
lamgs and Breast are supposed to be affected, and
also where the censtitution is broken down by the
use of "Mercury or Quinine.
The Swaim s Panaca, is an accredited antidote
to the'distascs peculiar to tropical latitudes. It is
made use of on all plantations, . and produces a
speedier a more certain and less expensive medium
of perfect restoration, than any other medicine
hitherto known or employed.
This medicine has the singular fortune, a just
tribute to its great merit, of being recommended by
ihe most celebrated practioncrs -of medicine in
the United States and Europe ; whereas, not one
of the spurious mixtures made in imitation of it has
the. least support from the medical faculty. This
fact offers an argument so plain and conclusive, that
it needs only to be mentioned to enforce conviction.
Swaim's Panacea is recommenced to all these in
valids for whom physicians prescribe Sarsaperilla
Syrups, Extracts, See.
Swaim's Panacea-is in round bottles, fluted lon
gitudinally, with the following words blown in the
glass ''Swaim's Panacea Philada.," having but
one label, which covers the cork, with the signa
ture of Wm. Swaim on it, so that the cork, (bear
ing also upon it as a seal the impression, Wm.
Swaim.".) cannot be drawn w thout destroying the
signature, without which none is genuine. The
medicine may consequently be known to be genu
ine when the signature is visible; to counterfeit ii
will be punished as forger)'.

W AIM'S YERMIVUGETHE MOST
USEFUL FAMILY MEDICINE EVER
OFFERED TO THE PUBLIC.
-This well known Anti-Disenitric and Worm
Medicine has proved successful these twelve years
past, and is universally achnowledged by all who
have tried it, to be far superior to any other medi
cine ever employed in the diseases for which it is
recommended. It is perfectly safe, and no child
will refuse to take it.
VV orms being especially apt to infest persons of
debilitated digestive organs and emaciated consti
tution, much mischief is often done by the ordina
ry worm medicines, which generally consist of the
strongest purgatives, calomel, that destroyer of the
constitution, bitters, pink root, spirits of turpentine,
worm-seed oil, &c. &c. Articlesof this kind may
destroy worms, but they debilitate the stomach,
and often materially injure the general health,
without removing the cause. Sivaim's Vermifuge
has the peculiar advantage of removing the cause
of worms,4 by giving vigor and healthy action to
the stomaeh, bowels, and organs of digestion, there
by relieving measles, croup, hooping cough, &c.
This medicineby invigorating the internal func
tions, strengthening the organs of digestion, and
removing the primary cause which creates morbid
secretions, will relieve Bowel Complaints, Cholic,
Dysentery. Dispepsia, and the whole train of bilia
ry affections, Sick Headach, Acidity of the Stomach,
Foul Breath, Bleeding Piles, &c. It is an antidote
in the early stages of Fever and Cholera Morbus
As a general Family Medicine, it stands unrival
led, as it is applicable to most of the diseases to
which children are subject. Swaim's Vermifuge
will be found of some utility to persons who occa
sionally indulge in the conviviality of the table; a
dose taken before dinner will anticipate the effects
of acidity of the stomach, not unfrequently produc
ed by wijie. In the neglect of this, however, a
dose in the morning 6V the following morning, will,
in most instances, restore the tone of the Stomach.

TO THE WHIGS THROUGHOUT THK UNION'.
Fellow Cocxthtmes The foregoing is the
title race of a work.' which the extraordinary cha-
racter of the recent canvass for the Presidency
seems to demand and which will be faithfully and
industriously executed, provided the enterprize
be sufficiently sustained, not only by the tnends 01
the in-coming Administration, but especially by
those throughout the country who were prominent
actors in achieving! the momentous revolution.
The timely and generous -aid of both these classes
of our citizens will be essential for the accomplish
ment of the object that of the former, by mani
festing their approval ot the scheme by their sub
scribing for the work, with as little delay as possi
ble and the latter, by furnishing me with the most
authentic and minute information, in a mode to be
hereafter stated. ;
All history teaches 4hat, whenever a great fc try
ing crysis occurs,the commensurate amount of talent,
of learning, of wisdom, and of zeal, will never be
wanting; and it has been found eminently so du
ring the whole period that intervened between the
extra session of Congress, and the late elections
in which period, it is not too much to say that, more
wisdom and common sensemore untiring zeal
and generous enterprize more manly indepen
dence and patriotic devotion more eloquence, ora
tory, appropriate information, and talent of every
requisite kind, have; been manifested throughout
our extensive latid, than -were ever before, on any
Loccasion whatever, Exhibited among us since we
were a nation? Should the clnonicles, then, of so
remarkable, a period as this, be suffered to repose
in the fleeting recollections of the present day or
be left to the ephemeral and perishable daily or
weekly Gazette ? Will not the Statesmen and po
liticians, even of our own times, have frequent occa
sion to refer to the events of the past year ! will not
thousands, hereafter.j seek in vain through a' thous
and avenues, for the minute details of this wonder
ful canvass, as full Jof moral sublimity, as it is
charged with deep political wisdom, and careful
researches into, anc expositions of. almost every
political topic that has agitated the past, and will
continue to excite the future If so, it seems to
me, that a careful selection and concentration of
all that is essential fully to characterize that period,
must be acceptable (to the general public of the.
present day anil be; thankfully received by those
who shall hereafter be connected with the destiny
of our great and I trust, prosperous Republic.
With this object, and these hopes, I venture to
make this proposal to the American public.
That a faithful and living picture of this period
may be preserved, not only for our own day and
generation but for many yet to come, every linea
ment, however small,, if truly characteristic, will be
given and, whilst repetition will be as studiously
avoided as may be practicable ; still, every State in
the Union must contribute its due and relative por
tion, towards perfecting the graphic deleniation
so that the great moral picture of these stirring
days, may
be educed from all of these various
sources, and thereby assure all coming times that
yie volume is no partizan work of an ovcrzealous
individual, but a veracious chronicle of all that may
be recorded therein.
The volume will probably be divided into the
twelve following parts :
I. The Canvass of! 1836, a.nd its results.
II. Proceedings of 1 the Harrisburg Convention.
III. Festivals throughout the Union, arranged
primarily, chronologically secondarily by States.
IV. Speeches Addresses, Letters, &c. carefully
selected, and corrected by their respective authors.
V. The titles, and; general contents of all the
books, pamphlets, fcc. published during the canvass.
VI. Similar enumeration of all essays, pamphlets,
&c. written in support of the Administrations of
Andrew Jackson and of Martin Van Bnren, and
a selection of such as may exhibit the legislation
philosophy and morals of that party.
VII. Selections from the Melodies, and other po
etical productions, sufficient to characterize the times.
VIII. Enumeration of the various articles man
ufactured for sale and as promotive of the cause.
IX. The authenticated votes in the recent State
Elections. j
X. The authenticated votes for the Electors of
of! President and Vice-President.
XI. Proceedings at ! Washington, from the meet-
i mg of Congress to the 4th of March, 1841
the
! Inaugural Address, &c.
j XII. The organization of Government the New
j Cabinet, &c. Index.!
i The volume (should the work be patronized)
: will probably be a royal octavo of 600 pages ste-
reocypeu on good paper. 1 tie price will vary trom
5?1 50 to $2, dependent upon the extent of the sub -
i um, au mc uniusiug ui me wurit. 11 is

union, who may be at Washington during the
session of Congress, will confer a favour by bring-

descriptions of festivals, authenticated votes, &c.
&c. which appertain to their own Stale, and anv
other written information that may enable the editor
to embrace every thing material that occurred in
each State, will be thankfully received. A line ad-
dressed to me at Mrs. J Hewett's, Washington, by
persons then in the city, will be promptly attend-
ea to.
The subscriber, perhaps, mav not be asking too
! much, when he hopes that the Whig Papers of the
I Union, generally, will give the foregoing one inser
; tion and that the principal Whig Booksellers in all
1 cities and towns will open a subscription paper, in
which the names of subscribers will be carefully
written and the exact address, as to residence
&c given. : .
03 These subscription papers from every part
of the Union, may be forwarded to me by private
opportunity in most instances, and then always at
Ualtimore. Should no private opportunity occur
before the 1st of May, they will please state by let-
ter, the number of subscribers, and means will then
be taken to forward the work. Any suggestions,
by true-hearted Whigs, to further the utility of the
volume, will be thankfully received,

To Democratic Editnrs
Any gentleman of the Democratic Republican
party, wko is competent and willing to sustain the
great principles for which that party s contending,
may have an opportunity of possessing himself of
the establishment of the North Carolina Standard
The office is well found in materials, and has a
list of about 2000 subscribers, supposed to be as
good, as to pay, as those of any establishment in
the State. The job work afad advertising are res
pectable. S x
To avoid the necessity qf any correspondence
on the subject, except such (as may amount to an
acceptance of the terms, they. are herewith published.
The materials arid LiJ will be sold far 3000;
two-thirds ot which must be paid in i-ash, and a
o-inirds 01 wnicn must oe paiu in iasn, ana a
lBond, with approved securities, at 12 month for

purchaser to make up the papers to those who have
1 paia in aavance, me numoer 01 wmru is miisiu
I believe the annals of our iusiness has not af-j
fordftl an opportunity so faiorable to a purchaser
a the present ; which wiil. he better understood,
j when it is stated that tne wuoie amount demanded,
is considerable Ust than the clear annual income
of the Office. v
If th purchaser desires to have the accounts
due the cilice, with the establishment, they will be
sold at a large discount, and on accommodating
terms. . .
It is not perceived that the late reverses in the
fortunes of our party, have decreased the subscrip
tion list of the Standard ; and it may be fairly pre
sumed that a Democratic Republican paper, faith
fully! conducted at the seat of Government, will al
ways command a generous support from our politi
cal friends.
Other views and prospects, with the almost ab
solute necessity of being absent a greater part of
the ensuing summer, have induced me to make
this offer. j
No arrangement will be entered into with anv
person, who may not be supposed acceptable to our
republican friends, whose eeneroui confidence and
j support I have for nearly five year enjoyed, and
j wmcu confluence r win never betray, in any shape
wuaievcr,
If the sale is not consummated by th middle of
April ext, I shall continue In the estalJishment.

The design of the propose d paper differs some
