THE AMERICAN FAMILY MEDICINE-

has rapidly flown from one individual to another, and from family to

family, until they have long since become known in almost every town and Village in the Union, as a wonderful and Incstimable blesstpg. Voluntary and unsolicited testimonials oftheir absolutely astonishing efficacy, in diseases of the most dreadful and obstinate character, as we as in others of prevalent and ordinary occurrence, have been received by the proprietor from the persons they have cured from every section of the country, and still continue to be received In Increasmg npmbers It is with pride and pleasure that the proprietor refers the ubhc to his “ MEDICAL MANUAL,” where a widel various selection 0 these testi- monials is ublished, with the names an residence of the writers, because he has no Eesitatiou 1n saying that the annals of Medical Science do not contain a greater number or variety of cures effected by any medial-a known to the profession, or cures ofa more fri btful kind or oflonga standing, coming as these testimonials do from t e cured persons selves, who certainly know best, from their own happy ex cricnce, whether they are cured or not.

._ NOVA SCOTIA. assionniox or Tris LIBERAL HENDERS or LORD rALstNu’s Initial ISIRATION -—aew APPOlNTMENT. (From the Nova Station.)

It has been quite evident for sometime past that there has been a want of harmony and mutual confidence among the Members of Lord Falkland’s Administration, which portended the sudden and speedy dissolution of that Body. This event has been pre- crpitated by the appointment of Mr. Mather Byles Almon, the President of the Bank of Nova Scotia, and the Brother-in-lan: of the Hon. Attorney General, to a seat in the Executive Council. This appointment was made in opposition to the wishes of Messrs. Howe, Uniacke, McNab, and they accordingly waited upon His Excellency on Thursday last, and tendered their resig- nations, which were accepted.

We understand from good authority that the Executive had

men who have retired from the Council were first acquainted with his Bxcellency’s intentions by public rumqur, before they were consulted. The exception taken to Ihe appointment of Mr. Almon is, the manifest injustice of the act to the Liberal party. As the Council stood, the Liberals were only represented by three —-the Conservatives by fit-e. _ By the appointment of Mr. Almon the Conservative majority at the Council board was Still further increased.

Responsible to the Assembly for all the appointments, bad they retained office after his Excellency had acquainted them with his determination to appoint Mr. Almon, they would have been just- ly regarded by the Country as deliberately sacrificing the inter- ests of the Liberal party. No Wonder then, that Messrs.Uniacke, Howe and McNab. felt it their duty to retire from a Government which evinced such a decided dispOSItion to overlook the claims, wound the feelings, and trample upon the rights of the party

ever, that until this principle is universal] reco iii and abolished—until the organization of the yGi-eatgLi’lsml Papriyfiiys broken up, and its particles give their adhesion to the great con- stitutional truth inseparany connected with monarchy, which is Involved in this truly Conservative declaration, it cannot be acted upon to the fullest extent. The task is for the people. In the mean time it will bear iis fruit, and flourish Io the extent of the scope afforded to it, gathering under its branches, in its progress to maturity, all who love peace and contentment—and evenin- ally excluding from its shelter, to gnash their teeth in the bitter1 ness of frustrated hopes—the small remnant—the demagogne and the republican, the baffled agitator, whose principles would retard the growth of the country, its prosperity and its happiness.

OFFICIAL RESIGNATIONS.

_ A detailed, and in some respects erroneous, statemc m of the circumstances attending the recent resignations having appeared in the Acadian Recorder, we have been instructedto publish the followtng correspondence—Nova Scotio Gazette.

The Lieutenant Governor presents his compliments to Mr. Howe, and informs him that the Lieutenant Governor, will ex-

not to have the reasons by which Mr. Howe and his Colleagues are induced to retire from the Executive Council, stated in Writ- ing when they tender their resignations.

Government House, Wednesday, 20th December, 1843.

Halifax, 21st December, 1843. M Lord, Your .xcellency havjng announced to me your intention to appornt a gentleman to your Executive Council, whose elevation , at the present moment, will, in my judgment, be jultl regarded

which they represented. The conduct of the retiring Councillors is above all praise. Messrs. Uniacke and Howe have proved by their voluntary abandonment—the former. of the office of Solicitor General, and the latter, of Collector of Excise—that they disre- garded ofllce, honours, and emoluments, when they were to be retained at the expense oftheir consistency and public character. Always enjoying the confidence of the country, their disinteiest- ed retirement will raise them still higher in public estimation. 0f the character of the new appointment, it is not necessary to say much. We have endeavoured, but in vain, to discover Mr. llmbn’s public claims to the distinguished place he now occu- pies. A seat in the Executive Council, under the new system, should be the reward of the public approbation. We do not say that no Constituency in Nova. Scoiia would elect Mr. A., but certain it is he takes his Seat at the Council Board without any mark of public confidence. In making this appointment, the Executive have overstept the rule laid down under the Respon- sible Government practice of making all appointments from the Assembly or the Legislative ConneIl. '

Doubtless the Attorney General, now the chief adviser of the Governor, the leader of the Government, and the expoundcr of its principles, is prepared to show that in conferring honours up- on his brother—in-law, a strong state netessity existed, sufficient to justify the abandonment of a sound public principle. No one can doubi’the purity of the monves and the entire absence of any desire on his part to gratify family, banking, or party predilec- iions. The public will judge of the complexion of~the new Cabi- iiet by its first act.

The Country will henceforth be governed by a party. Either the Reformers under Howe, Uniacke, McNab, Huntington, the ' Youngs and Doyle—or the Tories, led by Dewolf, Fairbanks, and John Ross, will for the next four years sway the political destiny of Nova Scotia. The Country must choose between the men who have zealously laboured to purify our Institutions, and give us the blessings of local self-government, and those who have stea- dily opposed an extension of our privileges.

That a. large majority of the Representatives of the People will sustain sound Constitutional principles and encourage Reform does not to our mind admit a doubt—and we feel assured that early in the coming Session the retired Councillors will be Iri- umphantly returned to the Council Board surrounded by Col- leagues, sharing their confidence—and that the miserable in- triguers who have produced the present crisis will be hurled from their seats to shiver for years in the cold and dreary shades of opposition.

(From the Halt/air Times.)

Theiesignations. though they create no astonishment, have yet been the subject of much conversation. The Great Liberal Party hold their heads high, as if thecircumstance proved 3 VII; tue unparelleled, except in the patriotic sacrifices of some anci- ent Greek or Roma . They take, however, a hasty view of the motives; and hasty views are not those which are acted upon now, by the people of Nova Scotia. A cool and deliberate scru- tiny ol the actions of our public characters, has begotten a feeling that even such great sacrifices as those which have been made, cannot do away. Something more than a coup—dc theatre is re- quired to restore a faded popularity—the stern realities which have led to the reaction in the public opinion. which is the main cause of the resignations, are too fresh in the public mind to allow ofany movement, having only the seeming of public virtue,lo be viewed otherwise than with the greatest suspicion.

No one can believe for a moment, that the Honble. Gentlemen who have resigned their offices, have not exuminedtlieir position in every light in which it would admit of being viewed, before they came to the conclusion that it was untena le; or that they have not balanced the probabilities, the chances, the loss or gain that may result from taking their stand upon the contracted ground of party domination, In a British Province, seeking to gain for itselfthe full and free benefit of the British C We have almost entertained a wish, but without union, that it were possible so to arrange matte linquishment ofnbsurd and injurious pretensio , and a toleration, for the sake of peace, of person pinquity on the other, all party desi nation and party feeling ould lidve been allowed to drop; an _that Nova Scotia might once more present to the other British Provinces a bright exam .le of con- cord, nnd of a safe and efficient Colonial responsibi ity, as far from Republicanism, as from the influence ofa clipue or com-
