The Last Man.
1=1:11=1
Upon that distant rocky.'shere,
Where the broad Pacific's waters roar,
Gazing on that fast rushing tide,
There stood a form of might and pride—
An Indian Chief, last of his race.
Alone he stood in that - wild place :
A nobler form than his, I seen,
On this fair earth is sehloin seen.
And proudly glanced his eagle eye
Beneath a brehead broad and high ;
A blanket, striped with many a hue
Of crimson, green, end deepest blue,
Was loosely o'er his shoulder flung,
And from his belt his hatchet hung.
.The war paint stained his swarthy check,
Roughened by wind and tempest bleak;
Beside him lay his bow' unbent„
Andebeath_of arrows all unspent,
Ah ! useless rum that Chieftain's bow ;
Alone he stands in grief and woe,—
And gazing on the golden sun,
Whose journey now was nearly done,
His anguish into utterance broke,
Andjwith, raised hand the Indian spoke:
" Yes, glorious orb, sink to thy rest,
And hide thee in the Ocean's breast;
Then rise to-morrow fair and bright;
And shine again o'er tower and dome
That rise, where rose the red man's home
But nevermore thy beam shall fall
On Indian hunter's cabin wall.
As bright thou shinest as on the day
When came the Spaniard's proud array ;
As bright today thy beaming smile
As when they came from England's Isle,
And freely with the Pilgrim hand
We shared our happy hunting-land,
Until their numbers, weak and few,
Into a mighty nation grew.
Then, when the foeman stood confect
In him we had received as guest,
We dug the hatchet from the ground,
And in their ears our war-hoop soursl.
Thou savest. 0 Sun! full many a plain
Where white men lay by Indian slain;
And oft the quiet stars l..oked down
• On burning house and ruined town.
Alt! 'vainly beat the red man's bow;
His nation perished sure Itgt slow,—
Partly by force, but more by fraud,
' The pale-face won the forest broad ;
And stately towns and cities grew,
Where first the wigwam rose to view.
No more o'er lake oViver blue
Shall warrior guide is light canoe;
No more in forest, far or near,
Shall Indian hunter chase the deer;
No more around the council fire
Shall gather youth and grey-haired she;
No more upon the baule eve
. Shall painted bands the war-dance weave,
None follow now the battle trail,
And none are left their fate to wail.
The red man's race from eanh has gone,
And I am left alone, to mourn
Yes, set bright sun, beyond my sight,
For me no more shall beam thy light."
He ceasedt—the sun had gone to rest,
Far in the ocean's western breast ;
Brightly its parting rays were cast
On him of Indian race the last.
His bow within his hand he took,
And cast on earth a farewell look,
Then plunged into the foaming wave,
And died, like Indian warrior, brave.

[Correspondence of the Rochester American.]
Owexo, August 21, 1845.
Yesterday. in company with a friend. I vi
sited Glen-Mary. On , our way, we passed.
through the little village of Canneivaita. Op
posite, a chain of hills on the eastern • side of
the Susquehanna, (whose bosom some mis
chievous River. God had disfigured with a net
work of eel grass) rose majestically. Their
piny crowns were made more beautiful by the
by the veil of azure gauze through which they
were dimly seen. Inroads of the aze on their
sides, and buck-wheat fields scenting the air,
and whitening the lowlands at their feet, gave
variety to the landscape. I never looked on
hill outlines more picturesque— ,- -hereAiotched
by deep gorges, and rugged with abrupt de
pressions—and there curving like the ocean
its gentlest swell." After a short ride, we
crossed the bridge—made fatuous by the poet
—that spanned a brook whose enamelled stones
were bare and dry, and in an ir.statit after we
stopped at the gateway. Dust-upon the gold
of summer, the song of the locust, and floating
thistle stars, and a dimness in the sheen of the
leaves, Were signs that September was at hand.
Traversing a gravelly walk that led;to the door
of the cottage, we halted, now and.-then, to ad
mire the blue hills that formed a fittin g back
ground to the romantic glen, or surveye d front
root to topmost branch, a few old patriarchs of
the grove that threw a heavy shade on the lev
el lawn in front. Passing on, we paused by
the square pillars that upheld an unpretending
portico ; some vandal hand had torn the vines
away that once embraced them with their ver
dant claspers, and they trailed upon the ground,
soiled, neglected.sand unpruned. I regret to
say, that the walls were defaced by lewd and
blasphemous inscriptions. What business
have the vile, I thought, in so sweet a place ?
Must the trail of the serpent be seen every
where—his hiss ever heard in the music of
the world—his slime be left on every altar
stone of innocence and beauty ?
A deserted house, thoiigh humble and un
known its former occupants, is to me a sad ob
ject. The winds whispering through unshorn
shrubbery—moss creeping over the untrodden
door-stone--shutters *.-clinging to broken and
rust-eaten 'hinges—or brick, dislodged from
wall or chimney, prach, in tones audible to
our spirit-ear, of the transitory nature of man
and his works=but a sadder spectacle, by far.
is the abode of any son of genius in desolation.
His course-may have been wayward—he may
have been
"A wandering bark upon whose pathway shone
AU stars of Heaven, except the guiding one."
still the home that once was his is a hallowed
spot ; his faults and his follies are forgotten in
the contemplation of a renown that glitters in
the casket of his country's jewels.
The vale ,of the Owego, on the border of
which stands the cottage, is " beautiful exceed
ingly." Forest trees, varying in form and Inte,
from the long, pale leaf of the butternut to the
darker foliage .of the oak, dotted the velvet
meadows through which its waters wound:—
The Dryads of a Grecian, governor reclined in
the shade of no more luxuriant boughs than they
gently lifted at the summons of the wind.—
The creek is diversified in its winding chan
nel by wooded islets. They are places of
resort for pin nic parties, though such visits
perhaps, are encroachments on the domain of
the " Unmeaning laughter. silly

shade and silence. In spring, when nature is
most superbly attired . in green and gold, she
has no brighter gems in her ample lap than
these isles of loveliness for which Calypso
and her nymphs woallf willingly have ex
changed their rose-wreathed bowers. August
has sadly altered the scene. Grass-hoppers
snap their wings in the sere herbage where
the wild flowers sprang, a fragrant and many
colored sisterhood. front the mould—the robin
has forgotten the joyous note with which he
_hailed the arrival of summer, and warbles in a
more subdued and saddened strain. The cot
tage has a lookout place, or balcony, furnished
with seats communicating with its upper WOWS.
The view from this point is truly enchanting
—the blue mantled and environing hills—
bright portions of seen through an em
bowering roof of long elm boughs—glimpses
of water in the distance, as if silver had been
prodigally scattered through the valley by the
unseen hands of spirits—the mountain wind
laden with the music of whispering pines—
leathered mitintrels asking no other lee for a
rich concert than a hew stray crumbs—the low
of herds and tinkling bell of (locks, were
sources of inspiration to the poet, and furnish
ed his soul witleglorions aliment. This quiet
nook of revery is now invaded by vulgar feet—
even this secluded corner, mice sacred to the
muses, is contaminated by visitatimis front the
low minded, whose highest ambition to
leave an abiding trace of their obscenity be
hind them. Uninfluenced by the associations
of the place, brainless folly has here written
hismatite tn. awkward characters, and left his
.dirty pencil•seraws on casement, door and
,•siting. Descending the stair case I passed
into the-kitchen—its hearth was cold—its lar
der empty—and not one lingering vestige of
the good cheer of other days was visible ; even
the flies buzzing around, anti bumping against
the window-pane, hail a hungry look. Open
ing a trap door I explored the cellar, but in its
shady bin found no generous wine—like other
parts of the house it was an empty solitude.—
Quitting this damp and unclean lair, that had
the smell of the sepulchre, rather titan the
odor of al Fernian about it, I emerged into the
sunshine, and the trap door returned to its
place with a hollow and startling sound that
rug through Glen Mary's deserted halls like
a long farewell to the festivities of the past.—
Pacing the corridors. I again looked on the
vale of Owego, thinking that my glance might
never again rest on a prospect so rich in every
element of. silvan and rural beauty. The
stream, in its shrunken channel, gave out a
complaining murmur, as if mourning for the
lovely being who was once mistress of the
poet's neglected mansion ; and who often
looked upon its silver waves with a heart over
flowing with happiness, and thought that her
dream of Paradise had proved a reality. Much
remains to bo written, but let me conclude this
record of my visit to the Glen by a few lines
to her memory.
Sweet Lady ! when the glen I sought
That bears, and long will homy thy name,
Of thy sad history I thought,
Forgetful of a husband's fame ; •
The wild bird singing in the tree,
Each rustling leaflet spoke of thee.
Thy cottage-home hath log the light
That.gladdened it in other houra—
Its vines are withered, and a blight
Hath fallen on thy once loved flowers;
I crossed its threshhold, and within
There was a gloom to night akin.
Cold was the hearth—and on the wall
Gray web work had the spider hung,
And, solemn as a knell, the (all
Of feet through each apartment rung :
Tlui - South wind sighed through open doors
Lifting the dust from unawept floors:
The features of yon view remain—
'f he waves flow on, the mountains rise ;
Dawn wakes, and twili — ght brings again
Her gentle dews, and star-lit skies:
But here no more will voice of thine
Fill air with song at day's decline.
Ah! nigh in soul perchance thou art,
Though far away thy grave is green,
For clung the tendril* of thy heart,
While living, to this lovely scene,
And slumbers here, thy firstborn child
Within a tomb undreat and wild.
"Fla nut unineet that shade of one
So young and fair, through lawns like these
Should wander when the day done.
And burden with its plaint the breeze—
Or visit, at lone midnight's hour,
Glen Mary's cot, and wasted bower.

T"Epreceding figure is to represent the INSEN
SIBLE PERSPIRATION. his the great evac
uation for the impurities of the body. It will be noticed
dist a thick clowly mist issues from all points of the sur
face, which indicates the wonderful process going on
within. This perspiration flows uninterruptedly when
we are in health, but ceases when we are sick. It should
be the care of every one to Bee that it is not checked.—
Life cannot be sustained without it. It is thrown off
from the blood and other Juices of the body, and dispo
ses by this means, of nearly all impurities within use.—
The blood by this means only, works itsclfpure. The
language of Scripture is, "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 eltlnse it, as it always puri
fies it.elf by its ow? heat ant and throws oil all
the offending humors. througtfilie insensible perspiration.
Thus we see, all that is ne4sh-ry when the blood is
stagnant or infected, is toopen the pores, and it relieves
itself frompll impurity instantly. Its own heat and.vi
tality are sufficient, without ono particle of medicine,
.except to open the pores upon the surface.—Thus we
see the folly of taking so much internal remedies. All
practieinners, however, direct their efforts to restore the
insensible perspiration. but it seems to be not always the
proper one. The 'l'hompsouians for instance, steams,
the Hydropathist shrouds us in wet blankets, the Ho
mopathist deals out intinitissimids, the Allopathistbleeds
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 be done, they say, we
will take rare 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
the importance of the insensible perspiration, we will
state that the learned 14. Lewenhock, andthe great Boer
heave, ascertained that five-eights of all we received in
to the stomach. passed off by this means. In other words,
if we eat and drink eight pounds per [lay, wo evacuate
live- 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 live 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 fali upon the lungs, the conse
quences are generally fatal.
By a sudden transition from beat to cold, the pores
are stopped, the perspiration ceases, and disease begins
at once to develope itself. Hence, a stoppage of this
flow of the juices, originates so many complaints. It is
through the surface that we imbibe nearly all our ills.
It is stopping the pores, that overwhelms 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 Dow of this subtle humor to the surface,
to preserve health. It cannot be stopped ;.it cannot even
be checked, without producing disease. The bleed
and intestinesqt - mst relieve themselves of all their worn
out particles, and poisonous humors, 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 ef its impurities? Would
you give physic to unstop the pores? Or would you
apply something that would do this upon the surface,
where the clogging actually is? Would not this be com
mon sense? 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 these circumstances, I pre
sent to physicians and to all others, a preparation that
has this power to the fullest extent.—lt is MeAllister's
All-Healing Ointment or the Worlds Satre. It has
power to restore perspiration on the feet, on the head,
around aidsores, 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 niorbul particles therefrom, and expelling them
to the surface.
It has power to cause nil external sores, scrofulous hu
mors, skin diseases, poisonous wounds to discharge their
.putrid matter, and then healtilthem.
It is . a remedy that sweeps off the whole catalogue of
cutaneous disorders, and restores the entire cuticle lofts
healthy functions
It is a remedy that forbids the necessity of so many
and deleterious'thugs taken into the stomach.
It is a remedy that neither sickens, gives inconveni-
Cure, or is dangerous to the intestines.
'this remedy is probably the only one now known,
that b; 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 its impurities and dis
pose of all its useless particlea. There is a connection,
harmony, and feasibility in all that defies contradiction.
It is a simple, 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
ternal, that it will not benefit. It will be found the most
useful as well as the cheapest family medicine in the
worth I have used it for the last fourteen years with
success without a parallel. I haveused it for all disease
of the chest, consumption, liver, and the most dangerous
of internal maladies. I have used it in cases of extreme
peril and hazard, involving the utmost danger and re
sponsibility, and I declare before Heaven and man, that
not in one single case has it foiled to benefit, when the
patient was within the reach of mortal means.
I never, to my recollection had more than five or six
among the thousands who have used it, say that it was
not favorable to their complaint. On the contrary I have
had hundreds return voluntarily, and in the warmest
and most pathetic languftge speak in its praise. I have
had playsicia»s, learned in the profession; I have had mi
nisters of the gospel, Judges on the bench, aldermen
and lawyers, gentlemen of the highest erudition and
multitudes of poor, use it in every variety of way, and
there has been hut one voice, one united. universal voice
saying " McAllister your ointment is good."
Consumption.-01 all diseases, we find this the most
important, andconcerning which we meet with the most
opposition. It can hardly be credited thrit a salve can
have more. effect upon the lungs, seated as they are with
in the system. But we say once for all, that this oint
meat will reach the lungs quicker than any medicines
that can be given internally.
.Every body consents to
the fact that if healing medicine could be applied on
the lungs, there would be great -hopes of recovery. The
difficulty is to get the medicine there. Now the Salve
has the wonderful virtue of evtracting the putrid hu
mors from all external sores by causing them to dis
charge. In like manner it operates upon internal affec
tions by driving all the impurities through the pores to
the surface.. Thus with consumption, if placed upon
the chest, it penetrates directly to the lungs, separates
the poisonens particles that are consuming tEem and ex
nth; them from the system.
It is the simplest and most rational process in creation,
if one has the medicine capable of doing it. The Ail-
Healing Ointment 'possesses this power to the fullest
extent. I need not say that it is curing persons of Con
sumption continually, althotigh we are told it is foolish
nem. I Cafe not what is said, so long as I can cure se;.
veral thousand persons yearly. If this nwilicine was in
the bands of some patent medicine brawlers, they would
make an uproar through the country that would be in
supportable.
Scrofula or King's &U.—This disease is 'really. in•
veterate, and hard to be subdued. It is generally seated
in the sides of thri neck, behind the eats and under the
chin, yet scarcely any parfof the body is exempt. It
sometimes falls upon the lungs and produces consump.
non.. It is a dreadful ctrcrinistance, that this disease is
transmitted from parents to children. The Salve will
extract all the morbid matter by causing the sores to dis
charge; and then let their the Solar Tincture be used to
drive it to one point, which done, a continuance of tire
Ointment will completely remove this disorder. This is
the safest and most effectual of any method. It should
be adopted without a moment's hesitation.
Erysipelas —This complaint arises from impurities
being driven out to the surface by means or the insensible
perspiration, and lodging in the cuticule, forms sures,
pimples &c., it being of a ,caustic, acrid putrilying na
ture. It only requires that it should discharge its vi
rulent particles through thei.kin, and the ditteilty will
pass olf. If suffered to TCIII4III, arid driven inwards it is
frequently fatal.

fele and the patient will 8001/ art well.
Sall Rheum.—Thin is another obstinate disease hut
can be cured effectually as the scrofula. There is no
'difficulty in this disease.
Head ache, Ear ache and Deaf ne..x.—The Salve has
cured persona of the Head-Ache of 12 years standing
and who had It regularly every week, so that vomiting
often took place. It cured the wife of a man who laugh
ed in my face for proposing such a cure, and who now
would not be_vvithout it for-the beat farm in the State. If
any one will take the double to call I will give hisnatne.
Deafness and Ear-Ache are helped with the like suc
cess as also Ague in the face.
Cold Feef.—Consumption, liver complaint, pains in
the chest or side, Milang of the hair, one or the other
always accompanies cold feet. It is a sure sign of dis
ease in the system to have cold feet. Some persons are
totally unable to get them norm, and endure much suf
fering•thereby.
no salve will restore the insensible perspiration and
thus ?um every _case. It is infallible for this.
Astianti, Tighinexx of Brealll.-11 this disease is rmt
hereditary and produced by the malformation of the chest,
the salve will cure it.
Dyspepsia.—One would suppose a salve would not
effect this disease much but the All-Healing Oitilntent
will cure two wow than any interim/ remedy will cure
One. .
Sure Elea. —The inflatnation 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 scat of inflam
mation or it will do little good. This salve if rubbed
on the temples will penetrate directly into the socket
and infuse all its virtues upon the disorder. The pores
will be opened. a proper perspiration will be created and
the disease will soon pass off to the surface. How
easy and how natural ! -is as perfect and valuable as
it is simple and philosophical.
Sore Lips, Chapped Hands 4e.—l sell a great deal
of salve 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 charm in these coin
plaints. Two or three'applications cures.
Pimples oa the face, freddes, tan, masculine skin,
gross aurfacc.—lts first action is to expel all htner. It
will not cease drawing till the face is free from any mat
ter that may be lodged under the skin and frequently
breaking out to the surface. It then heals. NVhen
there is nothing but grossness, or dull repulsive surfice,
begins to soften and soften until the akin 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. Sometirpes in case of Frock.
lea 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 actk i ty
the Insensible Perspiration, while it renovates and re
news the surface, and leaves the skin in as lively and
deli"ate a condition as the most fastidious could &stir%
It is put up in fine jars and beautifully scented on pur
pose for the toilet.
Burns.—Life can always be saved if the vital s are
not injured. I have so many testimonials for the cure
of this complaint that 'I• could fill a book. 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 13urna alone. It extracts the
pain and leaves the place vvithouta sear.
Quinsy sore throat, Influenza, lironrhitis.—Ther e
is not an internal remedy in existence that will cure
these t disorders as quick as the salve. It opens the pcires
on the neck and draws offal' the inflammation and im
pure juices, and a few days will see the patient well.
It is sovereign in these cases.
Pile.—The salve acts upon the piles as upon sore
eyes. There is an inflammation which must he drawn
from the parts. The salve does this.
Hernia or Rapture.—This salve has cured some very
had eases of rupture, and although it might not all, vet 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 cure thousands
if the trial was made, who believe no medicine of the
least benefit.
Two shillings worth would satisfy any one, whether
it would do good .rir riot.
Worms.--If parents knew how fatal most merliOnes
were to children taken inwardly, they would be old; to
resort to them. Esperially " mercurial lozenges," call
ed "medical lizenges," verinifuges," pills, Sm. Eyck
were it possible to say positirdy that worms were pre
sent, it is lot safe. The truth is, no one can tell, inva
riably, when worms are presem. Of couise 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 rubbed 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 ens
come of it in any way. But should it he cholic, infla
tion of the bowels, or gripe of the intestines, it will 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 he cruel, nay wicked, to give internal doubt
ul medicines, so long as a harmless, certain, and effect
ual external one could be had.
Chotic, Pain, or lajlamaintlon of the Botrcb•.—Let
the salve be rubbed in and heated with the fire or hot
flat irons, and all pains and difficulty will soon cein-e.
Swellings of the joints, or weakness, or any atrection
of the bone, nothing is so good for as this salve.
Poithns..-1 never knew anything so good as this
salve. It causes the poison to discharge immediately,
and leaves not the slightest cause of alarm. Poisons by
nails, bites of animals, or burns, it removes when no-'
thing else will.
Tu ilel.—l have it do up in fine order for the dres
sing case. Although ave said little about it us a hair
restorative, yet I will s, ke it against the world ! They
~ .4e
may bring their oils tar and near, and inine will restore
the hair two cases to their one. These are no idle words,
for I - Int ready to hack it with any reasonable amount.
Old Sores, Mortification, Ulcers. d.c.—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 itn
purities of the system, is the only reason, because they
cannot pass off through 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 aby it is impolitic to use the
common salves tithe day in such cases. Fbr they have
no power to open other revenues, to let off all this mor
bid matter, and the consequences ale always fatal. This
salve will always provide for such emergencies. There
need be no fear. It is perfect.
Broken Breast.—Persons need never have a broken
breast. The salve will always prevent it, if used in sea
son.
Complaint.—Persons having this complaint fre
quently have eruptions of the hands. face and other
parts, and newer once alit k. that it arises from the liver.
Their utter inability to remove these irruptions, prov es
their misapprehension of the disorder. Such mug tme
it first nn the feel. then wear it on the chest, and the
difficulty will noon go away.
Mine Pnision or Griping of the IttOtines.—Thin
disease caused the death of the tate H. S. Legere, At
torney GeneMl andicting Secretary of the United States.
It is the .stoppipg up of the mealier intestines, and some
times the twisting of thitn. ft is brought on by a neg
lect of the daily evacuations, or from incarcerated Her
