After this pertlinit at' venture, Fremont found,
hiinself, and the few nien who had used the.
boat. with him, with their lives safe, but drench
ed. ID the- skin. without , provisions. arms and
ammunition gone, • entirely at the mercy of
any straggling party of savages, and not a little
in danger of, starvation."' The day "was' pass
ing away. and it was necessary that he "should
rerli befnii night ai piece called Goat island,
to !hick the part of his party which could nut,
take the boat bad gene by land. He clamber
ed up the' banks of the river, and pursued his
weary course ; yet, even under these sufferings
and exposures. we perceive his delight, in the
beauty of the'Seenes around 'him :
"The scenery' was extremely picturesque.
and, notwithstanding our forlorn condition, .4
were frequently obliged to mop and admire it.
Our-progress was not very rapid. We had
emerged from the water' half naked, and, on
arriving' at, the' top of the precipice, I found
myself with' only one moccasin. The frag
ments of rock make walking painful, and I
was
.frequently,obliged to stop, and null out the
thorns of the cactus, here the prevailing plahl,
and with a few minutes' walk covered the bot
tom of my feet."
These are some of the trials to which such
hardy adventurers are exposed; and which re
quire the greatest energies of body and mind
successfully,to surmount. He had previously.
&alibi(' his daring ascent of one of the peaks
of the - •• Wind River chain." We climb with
him';—we - hear the - roar of dreadful cataracts :
wciStop shuddering' upon the edge of preci
pices—we stiffer with him the pains of hun
gerand,cold, and sink with hint exhausted
from the difficult breathing in such elevated
regions. ' At last, the crest is , attained—the
objt efof his great .the
is accomplished. -
Putting hinds and feet in the crevices be
tween the bloeks.lsocceedil in getting over
1411nd, when I 'reached the top, found my
companions in a small valley below. Deticend
ing to them, we coptinued climbing, apj in a
short time reached the crest. I sprao'; upon
the summit, and another step would have pre
cipitated me into an immense snow-field five
hundred feet below. To the edge ,of this
field wawa sheer icy precipice; and then, with
a gradual fall, the field sloped off for about a
mile,..until it struck the foot of another lower
ridge. I stood on a narrow crest, about three
feet in width, with an inclination of about 20°
N. 51* E.. As soon as ,l had gratified the first
feelings of curiosity, I descended, and each
man ascended in his turn ; for I would only
' allow one at a time to mount the unstable and
precarious slab, which it seemed a breath
would hurl into, the abyss below. We moun
ted the barometer in the snow of the summit,
and fixing a ramrod in the crevice, unfurled
the national flag to wave in the breeze where
never flag . waved before. During our morn
ing's ascent, we had met no sign of animal
life. excepttbe small sparrow-like bird already
mentioned. A stillness the most profound and
a terrible solitude forced themselves constantly
on the mind as the great features ofthe place.
Here, on the summit, where the stillness was
absolute, unbroken by any sound, and the
solitude complete. we thought ourselves be
yond the region of animated life; but while
we were sitting on the rock, a solitary bee
(broulas the Minable bee) came winging his
flight from the. eastern valley, and lit on the
knee of one of the, men.'''
Who does not envy the feelings of Fremont
on this occasion! Who would not have en
countered all his hardships, to have seen that
flag " wave in the breeze, where flag had ne
ver waved before?" Ominous adventure !
The higimet point of land north of the great
isthmus Was attained ; and there that flag was

On the-3d of. September, 1842. Fremont and
his party bade adieu to the wild and romantic
seeriery of Rocky mountain region. and turned
their steps towards home. ?One of the objects
of his expedition was to determine correctly
the character of the " Platte "or Nebraska
river. This.river enters the Missouri about
forty miles below "Council Bluffs," extending
from die Missouri in a direction very little
north of west, to the Rocky mountains, lead
ing directly by the valley of the " Sweet Wa.
ter," to the famous " South Pass." It loses
the character of a sipg 'ver at about mid-way
of its course. whereat „ " North Fork " and
the "South Fork "; both coming from
the Rocky mountaini.V communieming—
the former with the trading . establishment of
*. Fort Lai-orate," the latter with that of "Fort
St. 'Praia." • By observing the proceedings of
Congress during the winter which preceded
this expedition. it will be perceived that there
was a disposition to establish a military post
in that direction. It became. therefore. a mat
ter of serious importance to know whether or
uot"the " Nebraska" could he us'-d as a me
diuii fur the transmission of supplies: All
previous accounts .had represented this river
as unfit for such purpoves--hairing a wide bed..
over which its wide waters were ipread with
out ettarmel or depth, and; except when under
the influence of freshets', totally unfit for any
kind 'or navigation. • Fremant's 'account but
confirmed oar previous knowledge of the river,
leaving it'verycleardtiVts navigation' is not
to bit, improved, or to iffade practicable even
for small boats. It . 'has water enough, how
ever..-to feed •a, vanal ;". and probably, at
some future day. the construction of a
upon . its borders will relieve, its navigation
from existing difficulties. The following ex
tract
from the report will show the difficulties
encountered. even in, an attemptlo descend
the stream in a very - lightlipat of hides;
••".We baited for a short time on the alter
noon'of die sth with a village-of Sioux-Indians,'
some of whose chiefs we had met at Laramie.
Therater in the Platte was extremely low,
in many places., the large expanse of sands,
with some occasional stunted trees ;on the
banks, gave it the air of the -seacoast;. the bed
of the river being merely a succession olsand
bars. among which the channel, was divided
into rivulets a Jew inches deep . We crossed
and recrossed - with our carts repeatedly, and at
our pleasure; and, 'whenever an obstruction_

the day, a little before dark we overtook our
people at their evening camp. scout twenty.

The whole report (of the first expedition)
occupies 207 octavo pages—of which. 76 are
taken up in the narrative, and the balance in
the - catalogue of plants,"-and in the " astro
nomical " and " meteorological " observations.
CATALOGUE OF PLANTS.—This catalogue is
arranged by Professor Torry, who accompa
n,ifs it with a short but appropriate preface.—
% e find 350' species named—many of them
new, all of interest. Professor Torry says of
them "As the plants of Lieut. Fremont were
under examination while the first part of the
Flora of North America was in the press, near
ly all the matter relating to the compasitte was
inserted in that work. Descriptions of a few
of the species were necessarily omitted, owing
to the report of
. the expedition having been
called for by Congress before I could finish
the necessary analyses and comparisons.—
These, however, will be inserted in the suc
cessive numbers of the work to which I have
alluded."
Of the astronomical and meteorological ob
servations, and of the map, we shall say no
thing at present—reserving our observations
or these subjects until we have completed our
views and extracts of the second expedition,
which will be attended to in our next.
Times Change and Fashions Also.
In a lecture delivered, some two or three
years ago by the Hon. Mr. Sturges, of Boston
on trade and finance, he referred to the singu
lar changes of fashion. Nankeens said he,
were once imported in large quantities. As
late as 1820 there was one million of dollars'
worth imported ; now there is none. In 1806
Canton crape was first used ; in 1810 ten
cases were imported ; in 1816 there were 21.-
000 pieces ; in 1826 the importation amounted
to a million and ahalf of dollars ; and in 1844
the article was not imported ! Yet the country
has loft nothing by this caprice of fashion, as
our lair country-women appear as lovely in
ninepenny Lowell calico as in Canton crape.
Silk was once imported in large quantities
frost China ; a cargo of nearly a million dol
lars' worth once was landed in this country ;
and now the whole yearly importation from
China amounts to, less than 8100,000. Great
changes have also taken place in regard to the
Pay of our Chinese importations. In 1818,
$7,000,000 in specie were carried to China,
but now our purchases are paid for in bills of
exchange on England, from the proceeds of
the opium trade. The Fur trade was com
menced in 1787 ; and in 1802 there were fif
teen American vessels engagediu it, and now
it has ceased altogether. These mutations in
fashion and in tradeshow the utter impossibili
ty of having what may be called a . permanent
tariff. affording stability to the duty imposed
when in fact the high duty of to-day may re
quire' a radical change - to-morrow. Every
thing is ronstaLtly changing in America. fash
ion and manufactures and laws must change
with them.

THE preceding figure is to represent the INSEN
SIDLE PERSPIRATION. his the great evac
uation for the impurities of the body. It Will be noticed
that a thick cloudy mist issues from all pointed the cur.
face. which indicates the wonderful process going on
within. This perspiration Bows uninterruptedly when
we are in health, but ceases when we are sick. 'lt should
be the care of every one to see that it is not checked.—
Life cannot be sustained without it. It throWn, off
from the blood and other: juices of the body, and diva:
sea by this means.of nettrly all impurities within use:
blood by this meant only, works iteelfpore. The
language of Scripture ie, "in theblood is the life." If
it ever becomes impure, it may be traced directly to the
stoppage of the insensible perspiration. It never requires
any internal medicines to cleanse it, as it always puri
fies itself by its own beat and action, and throws off all
the offending humors, thrOugh the insensible perspiration.
Thus we see, all that is necessa-ry when the blood is
stagnant or infected, is toopen the pores, snd it relieves
itself from all impurity instantly. Its own heat and vi
tality are sufficient, without one particle of medicine,
except to open the pores upon the surface.—Thus we
see the folly of taking so much internal remedies. All
practitioners, however, direct their efforts to restore the
insensible perspiration, but it seemsto he not always the
proper one. The Thompsonians for instance, steams,
the Hp'ropathist shrouds us in wet blankets, the Ho
mopathist deals out infinitissimsls, the A llopathistbleeds
and doses us with mercury. and the blustering quack
gorges us with pills, pills, pills.
But one object only is in view. viz: to restore the in
sensible perspiration. If this can he done, they say, we
will lake care of the rest. It will be seen, therefore,
that all physicians understand alike what is necessary to
a recovery. how much they may differ as to the mode
of obtaining it.
To give some idea of the amount, and consequently l i
the importance of the insensible perspiration, we will
state that the learned Dr. Lewenhock, andthe great Boer- I
heave, ascertained that five-eights of all we received in-
to the stomach, passed off by this means. In other words,
if we est end drink eight pounds per day, we evacuate
five" pounds of it by the insensible perspiration.
This is none other than the used up particles of the
blood, and other juices, giving place to the new and
fresh ones, by carrying with it all the impurities within
up to the surface. To check this, therefore, is to retain
in the system five eights of all the virulent matter that
nature demands should leave the body. And even when
this is the case, the blood is of so active a principle, that
it determines those particles, to the skin, where they form
scabs, pimples, ulcers, and other spots ; but if it is di
rected inwards, and faits upon the lungs, the cense•
quences are generally fatal.
By a sudden transition from heat to cold, the pores
are stopped, the perspiration ceases, and disease begins
at once to deielope itself. Hence, a etoppage of this
flow of the juices, originates so 'manyplaints , . It is
....?
through the surface that we imbibe n all our ills.
It is stopping the pores, that ove helms mankind
with coughs, colds , and consumption. Nine-tenths of
the world die from diseases induced by stoppage of the
insensible perspiration. It is easily seen therefore, how
necessary is the flow of this subtle humor to the surface,
to preserve health. It cannot be stopped ;it cannot even
be checked, without producing disease. The blood
and' intestines must relieve themselves of all their worn
out particles, and poisonous humcirs, and they must go
through the pores as nature designed.
Let me ask now, every candid mind, what course
seems the most reasonable to pursue, and unstop the
pores, after they are closed and let the perspiration flow,
that the blood may relieve itself of its impurities 1 Would
you give physic to unstop the pores 1 Or would you
apply something that would do this upon the surface,
where the clogging actually isl Would not this be com
mon sense 1 And yet I know of no physician who
makes an internal application to effect it. The reason I
assign is, that no medicine within 'their knowledge, is
capable of doing it. Under thew circumstances, I pre
sent to physicians and to all others, a preparation that
has this power to the fullest extent.—lt is 111cAlliAter's
All-Healing Ointment or the World's Salve. It has
power to restore perspiration on the feet, on the head,
around oldsores, upon the chest, in short, upon any part
of the body, whether diseased slightly or severely. When
the perspiration is restored, it has power to penetrate the
lungs, liver; or any part of the human system, and to act
upon them, if they be diseased, by separating the in.
flamed morbid particles therefrom, and expelling them
to the surface.
=1
It has power to cause all external sores, scrofulous ha
mors,skin diseases, poisonous wounds to discharge their
putrid matter, and then heals them.
It is a remedy that sweeps off the whole catalogue of
cutaneous disorders, and restores the entire cuticle to its
healthy functions.
It is a remedy that forbids the necessity of so many
and deleterious drugs taken into the stomach.
It is a remedy that neither sickens, gives inconveni•
euce, or is dangerous to the intestines.
This remedy is probably the only one now known,
that is capable of producing all these great results. Its
great value is in restoring at once, the circulation of the
juices when checked, or disarranged by cold or other
causes. It preserves and defends the surface from all
derangement of its functions, while it keeps .open the
channels for the blood to avoid all jts impurities and die.
pose of all its useless particles. There is a connection,
harmony, and feasibility in all that defies contradiction.
It is a supple, but wonderful principle that preserves in
healthy operation the entire machinery of our being. It
indissolubly holds together the surface and the internal
viscera, the internal viscera and the surface. They are
inseparably connected and cannot be disjoined. The
surface is the outlet of five-eights of the . bile and used
up matter within. It is pierced with millions of open
ings to relieve the intestines. Stop up these pores, and
death knocks at your door. It is rightly termed All-
Healing, for there is scarcely a disease, external or in.
terns!, that it will not benefit. It will be found the most
useful as well as 'the cheapest family medicine in the
world. I have used it for the last fourteen years with
success without a parallel. I haveused it for all diseyse
of the chest, Consumption, liver, and the most dangerous
of internal maladies. I have used it incases of extreme

not in one single case has it failed to benefit, when the
patient was within the reach of mortar means.
• I never, to my recollection had more than five or six
among the thotiriands who have used it, say that it was
nut favorable to their complaint. On the contrary I have
had hundreds return voluntarily, and in the warmest
and most pathetic language speak in its praise. I have
had physicians, learned in the profession; I have had mi

and lawyers; gentlemen of the highest erudition and

Cold Feet—Consumption, liver complaint, pains in
the chest or side, falling of the hair, one or the other
always accompanies cold feet. It is a sore sign of dis.
ease in the system to have cold feet. Some persons are
totally unable to get them warm, and endure much suf
fering thereby.
The salve will restore the insensible perspiration and
thus cure every case. It is infallible for this.
Asthma, Tiglstneas of Breathe—lf this disease is not
hereditary and produced by the malformauon of the chest,
the salve will cure it.
Dyspepsia.—One would suppose a salve would not
effect this disease much but the All-Healing Ointment
will 'cane two sooner than any internal remedy will cure
one.
Sure Eyes.—The intimation and disease always lies
back of the ball of the eye in the socket. Hence the util
ity of all remedies that are used upon the lids. The
virtue of any medicine must reach the seat of inflam
mation or it will do little good. This salve if robbed
on the temples will penetrate directly into the socket
and infuse all its virtues upcn the disorder. The pores
will be opened. a proper perspiration will be created and
the disease will scarh:pass off to the surface. How
easy and bow natural ! It is as perfect and valuable as
it is simple and philosophical.
Sore Lips, Chapped Hands sell a great deal
of sale to Seamen, who say it is the only thing they
can depend on to cure their raw hands, when exposed
to the weather at sea. It acts like a chasm in these com
plaints. Two or three applications cures.
Pimples on the face, freckles,lan, 'masculine skin,
gross surface.—lts first action is to expel all humor. It
will not cease drawing till the face is free from any mat
ter that may be lodged holler the skin and frequently
breaking out to the surface. It theu heals. When
there is nothing but grossness, or dull repulsiVesutface,
it begins to soften and soften until the skin becomes as
soft and delicate as a child's. It throws a freshness and
blushing color upon the now white transparent skin
that is perfectly enchanting. Sometimes in case of Freck
les it will first start out those that have lain hidden and
seen but seldom. Pursue the salve and all will soon dis
appear.
The reason for this Wonderful change in a lady's
face is that it excites into natural and healthy activity
the Insensible Perspiration, while it renovates and re
news the surface, and leaves the skin in as lively and
-delicate a condition as the most fastidious could desire.
It is put up in fine jars and beautifully scented on pur
pose for the toilet.
Burns.—Life can always be saved if the vitals are
not injured. I have so many testimonials for the cure
,of this complaint that I could fill a hook. I suppose
there is not a family in the United States, that would
consent to be without this salve a single day if they
knew its balm in healing Burris alone. It extracts the
pain and leaves the place without' scar.
Quinsy sore throat, Influenza, Bronchitis.—There
is not an internal remedy in existence that will cure
these disorders as quick as the salve. It opens the pores
on the neck and draws off all the inflammation and im
pure juices, and a few days will see the patient well.
It is sovereign in these cases.
Pilo.—The salve acts open the piles as upon sore
eyes. There is an inflammation which must be drawn
from the oarts. The salve does this.
Hernia nr Rupluse.—This salve has cured some very,
bad cases of rupture, and although it might not all, yet it
would be wise to try it. It is a peculiar complaint, but
it may be helped some, if not cured entirely. I have
not the shadow of a doubt that it would core thousands
if the trial was made, who believe no medicine of the
least benefit.
Two shillings worth would satisfy any one, whether
h would do good not.
Worma.—lf parents knew how fatal-most medicines
were to children taken inwardly, they would be slow to
resort to them. Especially " mercurial lozenges," call
ml "medical h zenges," " vermifuges," pills, &c. Even
were it possible to say positirek that worms were pre
sent, it is lot safe. The truth is, no one can tell, inva
riably, when worms are present. Of course the remedy
is not applicable to the complaint. Now let me say to
parents, that this salve will always tell if a child has
worms. Let it be robbed on the neck and chest, to keep
them from going up, and then down on the bowels and
they will soon leave. It will drive every vestige of them
away. This is a simple and safe cure. No injury can
come of it in any way. But should it be cholic, infla
tion of the bowels, or gripe of the intestines, ef
fectually cure them as the worms.
There is probably no medicine on the face of the earth
at once so sure and safe in the expulsion of worms.
It would be cruel, nay wicked, to give internal doubt
ful medicines, so long as a harmleiss, certain,.and effect
ual external one could he had.
Chalk, Pain, or lofianzmntion of the Bowels. —Let
the salve be rubbed in and heated with the fire or hot
fiat irons, and all pains and difficulty will soon cease.
Swellings of the joints, or weakness, or any affection
of the bone, nothing is so good for as-this salve.
Poisons.—l never knew anything so good as this
salve. It causes the poison to discharge immediately,
and leaven not the slightest cause of alarm. Poisons by
nails, bites of animals, or burns, it removes when no
thing else will.
7bilet.—l have it done up in fine order for the dres
sing case. Although 1 have said little about it as a hair
restorative, yet I will stake it against the world ! They
may bring their oils far and near, and mine will restore
the hair two cases to their one. These are no idle words,
for I am ready to hack it with any reasonable amount.
Old Sorts, Mortification, Ulcers, ¢a—There is no ef
ectual way of curing these, but drawing off the putrid
matter. To merely dry it up would only endanger one'
health more. That some sores are an outlet to the im
purities of the system,-is the only reason, because they
cannot pass offihrough the natural channels of the In
sensible Perspiration. If such sores are healed up, the
impurities must have some other outlet, or it will endan
ger life. This is the reason why it is impolitic to use the
common salves of the day in such eases. For they have
no power to open other revenues,. to let off all this mor
bid matter, and the consequences are always fatal. This
salve will always provide for such emergencies. There
need be no fear. It is perfect.
Broken Breasr.—L.Persons need never have 4 broken
breast. The calve will always prevent it, if usetin sea
son.
Lire,. Complaint. —Persons having thiscomplaint fre-
quently have eruptions'' of the hands, face .and other
parts. and never once this k that it arises from the liver.
Their utter inability to remove these irruptions, proves
their misapprehension of the disorder. Such must use
it first on the feet. then wear it on the chest, and the
difficulty will soon go away..
lUiae Prolion or Griping of lite Intestines . —This
disease caused the death of the late H. S. Legere, At
torney General andacting Secretary of the United States.
It is the stopping up'of the smafier intestines, and some
times the twisting of them. it is brought on by a neg
lect of the daily' vecustioni, or from incarcerated Her.
