T should do great injustice to the Attorney
were I to omit the mention of his
.•jncuished services in the measures adopted
i prosecuted by him for the defence of the
government against numerous and unfounded
r ji.ms to land in California, purporting to have
te e,i made by the Mexican government previ
-,jS to the treaty of cession. The suc
t,<isful opposition to these claims has saved
t - p ;e United States public property worth
' -,nv millions of dollars, and to individuals
' aiding title under them to at least an equal
amount.
p has been represent, d to me, from sources
which T deem reliable, that the inhabitants in
several portions o! Kansas have been reduced
vjrly toa state of starvation, on account of
die almost total failure of their crops, whilst
he harvests in every other poition of the coun
irv have been abundant. The prospect before
t'Vm lor the approaching winter is well calcula
ted to enlist the sympathies of every heart.—
The destitution appears to be so general that it
cannot be relieved by private contributions,
a ithev are in such indigent circumstances as
V 5 be unable to pnichase the necessaiis of life

on clai.n of the party to whom such service is

to , ire provd to he a serious evil to this com

In ca-esol General Dvliif.y, whether the result
ot acute disease or of the continued d.minulioo of
nervous and muscular energy from chronic con
points, one trial of this restorative has proved snc
ces.Mti! to an extent which no d scriprion nor writ
t n attetration would lender credible. Invalids so
ibns bed-ridden as to have become lot gotten in their
own neighborhoods, have suddenly re-apfceared in
the Illicit UVIJ/1 •' i--i - - .. • -
sanguineous exhaustion, critical changes, and tout
complication ot'nervous and dyspeptic aversion to
atr and exercise for which the physician has no ,
name.
In jVnvous Affections of all kinds, and for reason
familiar to medical men, the operation ofihUprepa
ration of lion must necessarily be salutary, for, un
like the old oxides, it is vigorously tonsc, withou
being exciting and over-heating t arid gentiy regut
iariy aperieui, even in the most obstinate cases of
costiveness, without ever beni£ a gastric purgative,
or it dieting a disagreeable sensation.
It is this latter property, among others, which
makes it so reinafxably effectual and permanent a
remedy for I't/es, upon which it also appeals to ex
ert a distinct and specific action, by dispensing tt.o
local tendency which forms them.
In ]>v'>,epsia, innumerable as are its causes, a
sing'e box of these Chalybeate Pills has often suffi
ced for the most habitual cases.
In unchecked Dtarrltera, even when advanced to
Dystentery, confirmed, emaciating and apparently
malignant, the effects have been equall decisive and
astonishing.
In the local pains, loss of flesh and strength, de
bilitating cough, and remittent hectic, which gene
rally indicate Incipient Con.iumption, this remedy
has allayed the alarm of frier. Is and physicians, in
several very gratifying and interesting instances.
In Scrnfitlotts Tuberculosis, this medicated iroC
has had tar more the good effect of tne most cau
tiously balanced preparation* of iodine, without any
of th°ir weil-krrown liabilities.
The attention of females cannot be too confident
ly invited to this remedy and restorative, in the ca
ses pecu'iarly affecting them.
in Rheumatism , both chronic and inflammatory,
in the latter, however, more decidedly, it has been
invariably well reported, both as alleviating pain
and reducing the swelling., and stiffness of the joint*
3nd muscles.
In lutemut'enl Fevers it must necessarily be a
great remedy and energetic restorative,'and its pro
gress in the new settlements of the West, wili pro
bably be one of high renown and usefulness.
No remedy has ever been discovered, in the whols"
hi-tory ot medicine, which exerts such prompt hap
py and fully restorative effects. Good appetite*
complete digestion, rapid acquisition of strength,
with an uriusuai disposition tor active and cheerful
exercise, immediately follow its use.

A Rook ot Plain Rv.Vs and Calculations for Busines*
Operation, By Martin M. Rohier, Practical
Surveyor and Conveyancer. New Edi
tion", Published by J. B. Lippincott
& Co., Philadelphia.
This work contains '204 pages, and upwards of
500 Utiles and Examples, entirely and thoroughly
practical, such as every day in the common
pursuits of Business. It has already passed through
a number of Editions in rapid succession, and is
pronounced by all classes of business men to be
the handiest book of reierence, pertaining to calcu
lations. that has ever been published.
Every example in the book is woiked out in full
and stated in a plain manner, so that when a par
allel case arises, those referring to the work w>II
find no difficulty .n readily solving it ; in a word,
the general arrangement of the Calculator is so
simple, tint ar.yone who knows how to add, sub
stract, multiply, ot divide, can easily solve any or.
dmary example that arises in business, or arrive at
the result of any estimate required.
The chief aim of the author has been to eschew
theory and ph iosophy in figures, aiming only at
facts and simplicity, believing that business men
care little about spending time in dis>—-"" , s :k >
'.hilosopliy or Tirtrs or tmr 'science of figures, deem
in" it suflieiert for their purpose to be able at a
nrurnc,,, ,r v to arrive at the true result
The in ihis re*b?ct from all A

key to practical business ca'culations —it is, in the
hu'.dstif the business man, what the key to matb
emrtical works is in the ha ids or the teacher in the
school-room—it facilitates time and insures cor
