Sr. Fillmore's Speech at Albany*
Aa jnrfaf ibabiotory of tie present ean-
. Tin, we ptUith the apeeek lately delireted
by Mr. Fillmore at Albany, New York, at
lexif th. as it i* one of the moat important and
significant productions in its terms and in ita
bearing* which has en mated from kim since
his nominAion:
Mr. Mayor amdFeUmo-Citisent: This oyer-
-whelming demonstration of congratulation
and welcome almost deprives me of the pow-
er of speech. Here nearly thirty year* ago I
commenced my political career. In this
■ building I first saw a legislative body in
.session—[cheersJ—bit at that time it never
entered into the aspirations of my heart that
I shoulffeceive sneh a welcome as this in
the capital of my native State. [Cheers.]
Too have been pleased, sir, to allude to my
former services and my probable course if I
should be again called to the position of
the chief magistrate of the nation. [Applause]
It w not pleasant to speak of one's self, yet 1
trust that the occasion will jutify me in
briefly alluding to one or two events con-
nected vithiny last administration. [Cheers.]
You all know that when I waa called to the
executive chair, by a bereavement which
overwhelmed the nation with grief, that the
country was unfortunately agitated from one
end to the other npon the all-exciting subject
of alarery. It was then, sir, that I felt it
; my duty" to rise above every sectional pre-
' jo dice, and look to the welfare of the whole
nation. [Applause.] I was compelled to a
f certain extent to overcome long cherished
prejudice*, and disregard party claims.
[Or*at and prolonged applause.] But in do-
ing this. sir. I did no more than was done by
> many abler and better men than myself. I
waa bv iio means the sole instrument, under
Providence, in harmonising these difficulties.
T Applause.] There were at that ti®e noble,
independent, high-muled men in both houses
of Congress, belonging to Both the peat po-
litical parties at .'the country—Whigs and
Democrats—who spurned the character of
Belfi<h party leader*, [cheers,] and rallied
around ray administration in support of the
great measure* which restored peace to an
agitated and detracted country. [Cheers.]
Br the blessings of Divine Providence, our
eflorts were crowned ^ith signal succcss,
[cheer*.] and when I left the Presidential
- oltair the whole nation waa prosperous and
cuntcnied, and our relations with ail foreign
nationa were of the most amicable kind.
[Cheer,.} The cloud that huns.npnn the
u^riaoa wm diwpated: but where are we
now f Alasl threatened *t home with civil
war, aad from abroad with a rupture of onr
peaceful relations. 1 shall uot-svek to trace
-.he cause* of this change. These are the
facts, and it is for you to ponder upon them.
Of the present administration I have nothing
to say, and can appreciate the difficulties of
udnvlniSlering this government, and if the
pceaent Executive awl bis supporters have
nude a mistake, I hope God may forgive
them as I do. [Load s nd prolonged cheers.]
Bat if there lie those who have brought these
•Uamitiea npou the country for selfixh or am
bitionc object*, it is yonr duty, fellow-eiti
tens, to hold them to a strict responsibility.

We. It was brough't upon us by the acqui-
sideo of new territory, for the government of
which i; was necesaaiy to provide Territo-
rial adroiuittntfoo*. But it is for von to say
whether the present agitation which dia
tract* the country and threatens us with civ-
il war has not been recklessly and wantonly
produced by the adoption of a measure to
aid in persi-nal advancement, rather than in
any public gapd. kCheers ] Sir, yon have
beeapleaaed lossy that I have the union of
tfcesq States heart. This, sir, is most
irte,"for if thele be one object dearer to me
than any other.it is the unity, prosperity and
glorvof this gteat republic, and I confess
frankly, sir, that I fear it is in danger. I aay
nothing of any particular section, mtch less
ot the several candidates before the people.
I presume they ate all honorable men. But,
Sr. what do we «e ? An exasperated feei-
ng bff«' n the North and the South, on the
SMt efeitinc oC ail topics, resulting in
Wood«M aad organised military array.
Bt>t this is not all, air.

dates for the Presidency and Vice Presiden

. these cssdidstes by nuSrages of one part of

But, fellow citiiens, 1 have perhaps said
all that tras necessary on this subject, and I
turn with pleasure to a Ins important, but
more agreeable topie. [Cheers.] It has been
my fortune during my travels in ^Europe to
witness, once or twioe, the reception of roy-
alty, ia all the pomp and splendor of mili-
tary array, where the music was given to
ordnr ana the cheers at the word of command.
But, for myself, I prize the honest, sponta-
neous throb of affection with which you
have welcomed me back to my native State
above all the pageants which royalty can
display. [Cheers.] Therefore, with a heart
everflowing with grateful emotions, I return
?'ou a thousand thanks, and bid you adieu.
Prolonged applause.]

On the 2d day the committee on business
made an elaborate report in faver of the loan-
ing policy, the great length of^rhich we re-
gret to say renders ns unable to publish it
in this paper. The main arguments ad-
vanced in the majority report against the
State Plan are, that nine-tenths of the peo-
ple are opposed to it; that the Constitution,
would have to be so changed as to allow the
State to contract onerous debts, and partic-
ular routes eltabiished before their expedi-
ency could be demonstrated; the creation of
a large number of officers,who would often be
chosen for any other qualities than those of
experience and competency; that States al-
ways pay higher for everything than indi-
viduals; the disagreement among the advo-
cates of the system as to whether the State
shouid build and run the roads or merely
own and lease them, and lastly, the entire
insecurity of the traveling and freighting
public, where remedies for damages and
losses can onlv be obtained by the (low pro-
cess of legislative relief.
In favor of the loan policy it is urged that
no money is to be loaned until a section of
the road shall havs been completed; that the
land donation will defray at least one-third
of the cost, and if. the whole road will not
sceure one-third of the cost, it is evident
that it would be unwise for the State t pay
the whole expense.
Assuming that the State of Texas has'of
United States 5 per cent stock in the Treasu-
ry and subject to loans to railroad companies,
the sum of $3,000,000, and that *aia fund,
and interest accruing thereon from the 1st
July, 1656, and premiums realized from
sale of said stock, was lent at the rate of
$6,000 per mile on sections of 25 miles com-
pleted of railroad, and at 6 per cent interest
payable annually. And auo assuming that
railroad compan-e* wonld construct railroads
at the rate ol 100 miles per annum for seven
years, and at the rate of 150 miles per an-
num for seven years, and of 200 and 250
miles per annum thereafter. And also as-
suming that the Companies Bonds were to
fall due in seven years from their respective
dates. How long would such a fund of
$3,000,000 last ? Itvmddbe ftrpttval.
Here follow caleulationa extending over
the space of twenty years, and showing that
the operation of the loaning policy in that
time would aid in the construction of 3,100
miles of road, and leave a balance of unex-
pended fund of $1,679,610, with railroad
bonds to the amount of $9,000,000, with an
annual revenue of $540,000 p -r annum.
Other good arguments are set forth, for which
we have not room in the present number.
A minorfy report in favor of the State Plan
ww submitted by Messrs Johns snd Dancy.
After addresses from Hon. George W. Pas-
chal, John W. Dancy, Maj. C. R. Johns,
Gen. Hugh McLeod, Hon. W. B. Ochiltre.
and others, the majority report was adopted
with but two dissenting voices, whereupon
the Convention adjourned.

Gar. D., of no matter what State, was a
plain, farmer-like person—in fact, aside from
his political office, his profession was that of
a farmer. He had an orchard behind his
house, to which he paid a great deal of at-
tention.
In personal appearance the Governor was
not very prepossessing. He was tall and
gaunt,and when about his work was (gene-
rally in the habit < t wearing a faded ares-
sing gown, which was of exceeding length,
coming nearly to his feet.
It chanced one day that a gpntleman, fash-
ionably dressed, called at the Governor's
residence and inquired for him He was in
quest of a certain office which lay in the
Governor's <rift.
" He is not at home at present." said Mrs.
D., 'hut if you will come in and take a seat,
no doubt be will be along soon."
The visitor accepted the invitation, and
soating himself in the plain sitting room, en-
tered into conversation with the Governor's
lady. "1 believe.'' said he, "that this is con-
sidered a fine agricultural place. Does your
husband own much land ?"
"Some thirty acres. He is quite a farmer."
"I caught a glimpse of an orchard ju6t be-
hind the house. That I suppose belongs to
him ?"
"Yes, he prides himself on his orchard."
"I see you find it necessary to use scare-
crows to frighten away the birds."
"Scarecrows !" The Governor's lady was
astonished. "No," said she, "wc never em-
ploy any."
"Why, I am quite sure I saw one in one of
the treed, rigged up in a long fluttering
robe."
"I don't think Mr. D. has put any oce in-
to the orchard. You can look from the win-
dow, and perhaps you can see the object
which you mistook.*'
"There it is now"—was the reply, as he
pointed out a figure standing on a limb of
one of the trees, dressed in a pair of over-
alls, with a faded robe fluttering in the
breeze—"that's the scarecrow ! I was sure
that I was not mistaken!"
•'That a scarecrow!" said Mrs. D., in
amazement; " why, that's my hiuband."
The victim of this embarrassing mistake
had just enough voice left to inquire for his
hat, upqp which he immediately withdrew,
thinking it best to defer his application for
office to a more convenient season.

A Bit of Advice.—Have you ene-
mies ! Go straight on and don't mind
them. If they get in your way walk
round them, regardless of their spite.
A man who has no enemies is seldom
good for anything—he is made of that
material which is so easily worked that
every one has a hand in it. A sterling
character, one who thinks for himself,
and 8peaks what he thinks, is always to
have enemies. They are as necessary
to him as fresh air ; they keep him alive.
A celebrated character used to remark :
" bey are sparks which, if yon do not
blow out, will go out of themselves."
Let this be your feeling, while endeav-
oring to live down the scandal of those
who are bitter against, you.—If yon

■ Qmivs AH IirvTTATioif.—It haying
been observed that a certain rich mwi
never invited any one to dine with him—
"I'll lay a wager," said a wag,"I get
an invitation from him."
The wager being accepted, he went
the next day to the rich man's house,
about the time he was to dine, and told
the servant that he must speak with his
master immediately, for he could save
him a thousand pounds."
"Sir, said the servant to his, master,
'there's a man at the door, in a great
hurry who says he can save yon a thous-
and pounds."
Out came the master.
"What is that, sir ? Can vou save
me a thousand pounds ?"
"Yes, sir, I can."
"Won't you walk in ?"
"Thank you, sir. I see yon are at
dinner, I will ga to mine and call again."
"Oh, pray, sir, oome in and take din-
ner with me."
"I shall be troublesome."
"Not at all."
The invitation was accepted.
As soon as dinner was over, and the
family retired, the conversation was re-
sumed.
"Well, sir," said the old man, now to
your buisness. Prav let nie know at
once how it is that you can save me a
thousand poonds."
"Why, sir," said the other, "I have
just heard that you have a daughter to
dispose'of in marriage."
"I have sir."
"And yon intend to portion her with
ten thousand pounds."
"I do, sir "
"Well, then, rir, ifyon'll let me have
her, I will most gladly take her at

In the last weekly Civilian were some
exaggerated accounts of onr difficulties.
There has been no regnlarly fortified
place in this connty ; neither has there
been any equal divisions of parties.
The murderer's party has been the smal-
lest all th* time and gradually growing
less, till it dares not show its head.
Orange county is little, but she is deatfi

remain behind to assassinate in the

the seat of war is removed beyond our

Everything now in this country de-
notes a change for the best, and there
is no use for the Governor to order ont
any more of the militia, for we obeyed
his orders before he thought of them.
The citizens of the Sabine country are
determined to be upright and loyal ;
therefore they need no proclamation

will obey him without it. Texas ra the

two months. 8he procured a bottle of M'Lane's
Vermifuge, and administered it. The child passed
a large quantity of worms, and in a few days was as
hearty as ever it had been. Parents, with such tes-
timony before them, should not hesitate when there
is any reason to suspect worms, and lose no time in
procuring and administering Dr. M'Lane's Vermi-
fuge. It nerer fails, and is perfectly safe.
. ii r" Purchasers witl be careful to ask for Dr,
JI'Lane's Celebrated Vermifuge*
manufactured by Fleming Bros,
of Pitaburg) Pa. All otter Vermifuges in
comparison are worthless. Dr. M'Lane's genuine
Vermifuge, also his celebrated Lirer Pills, can now
ba had at all respectable drug stores. None

My Dear Sir:—I take the liberty of introducing
to your acquaintance Dr. K. Voltera. who is a na-
tive of Cuba, anil an exile on account of his patriot
ic connections with the late unsuccessful attempt to
revolutionise that Island, tie visits your city with
a view of making it his home, and engaging in the
practice of his noble profession. You will find the
Dr. a very intelligent lentieman, and he brings me
letters of recommendation from respectable friends
in this State. I commend him to you, and any kind-
ness you extend to him will oblige your friend,

The Visitation of the Sick.
DR. R. VOLTE RA has now forty years medical
practice on sick bodies without calomel or
other mineral and poisonous ingredients. Kami-
lies In this city, disposed to have my professional
services as a family physician, iiava to pay me jtet
dollart each month: in return I will attend care-
fully all the -irk persons belonging to the family.
All diseases to which human nature is liable—
chronic diseases—secret diseases—shall be cured
in a short time for a trifle by Dr. Voltera. Expe-
rience is a valuable thing in medical practice.
Norfolk and Portsmouth lost last year, of yellow
fever, one third of its population, including forty-
three regular physicians, and many quacks, too,
who could not save their own lives.
In the last dreadful season of yellow fever in
New Orleans, in the year 1833, twenty thousand per-
sons died of yellow fever I
During forty summers in America, I have been
treating patients with yellow fever in the Island o'
Cuba, my native country; as well, also, in New
Orleans and the Mcxican ports within the tiulf; and
I have had an extensive experience in liayti, the
British, French, Dutch and Dauish West India col-
onies—observing carefully, and practising too, on
sick bodies attacked of yellow fever
With forty years regular practice on sick bodies
In Europe and America; and five years medical
practice in the hospitals of Spain, Rome and Paris;
in the winter of my life, at the end of my career,
exiled from my native country for political opin-
ions, I do not wish to become an object of admira-
tion in the history of medicine; but, instigated by
several respectable citixens. I come oat with this
advertisement for the cause of humanity.
We have also > ellow fever in Cuba every year;
bat those who die of yellow fever iu Cuba, are only
persons of dissipated habits—foreigners, treated by
foreign physicians with mercury and lancet—or
those who do not call ftr a regular physician in the
begining of the attack. Yellow fever in Cuba is
curabie; indeed, in Cuba, we, the native physicians,
cure yellow fever with 25 or 50 cents worth of medi-
cine at the most, and save every life from the grave
In all dlnds of diseases, nature is the ben physi-
cian: hat, according to our own art of heallug, we
always make use of the true medicine with ecounmy
fortwo much of the medicine is worse than thedis-
ease. The system of the old Spanish medical school
is, to ears tha tick without minerals or other pois-
onous ingredients. Hence, in Cuba, ail the cases
of yellow fever are cured when treated by a skillful
native physician, at the first symptoms of the at-
tack. The lancet and mercury gives a momentary
relief; but the reaction that follows, is Hack vomit
a$d death! That is certain.

TtIS Machine now awaits atrial by the cotton
growing interest of the South, having been pa-
tented on the 5th of December, IB55. its principle
of action is that of an endless chain with opei> links,
so formed as to afford a double row of card teeth
which, put in motion by a simple mechanical com-
bination nropelled by the hand, pulls the lint from
the bow] through a tube, and deposits it in a sack
attached to the lower part of the machine—the whole
being suspended by a strap on the shoulder as the
cotton sack usually is, and of inconsiderable weight.
It is believed by competent judges that it will prove
to be a labor-saving machine of.decided value, as
well as ta improve greatlv the value of the cotton by
reparating the lint from trash. The Agent of the
Patentee in New Orleans has guarantied that 1000
pounds of cotton per day by a single hand may be
gathered, and, in point of durability, that the >-a-
chine will last at least three years. The price of the
machine is twenty-five dollars, payable on delivery
in Oaiveston or Ilouston during the ensuing summer
and autumn.

their orders with WM. H. R1CK & CO.. Houston.

N.B—The unparalleled successor our^eiring
Machines ha* induced several fraudulent imitations
of tbem,besi«l*fi numerous infringements of our pn-
tents, of which weowii sixteen. Suits for the in-
fringement of our patents have recently been deci-
ded in our favor iu the U. 8. Circuit Courts in i\ew
York and New Jersey. In these suits the great
principle of
folding down the Fabric to 6« Sored to the Sur-
face of the Machine by a yielding pressure,
which in used in all sewing machines, has been fully
established. The Wheeler Ac Wilsou, aud the Uro-
ver fc Baker Sewing Machines, as we allege, each
infringe three distict patents owned by us. We have
suits against them iu several of the U. S. Courts,
which will soon be tried. We hereby caution the
public not to buy any infringing machines, as they
can be compelled by law to stop using them, aud to
pay costs and damages.
N. B.—Local Agents wante J to make sales of our
improved sewing machines. To prrsons properly
qualified for the business, a rare opportunity for
profitable and pleasant employment is offered.
New and improved machines exchanged on liberal
terms for old machines of every kind.
