General, making , an addition, in the whole, of
eighteen war steamers, subject to be taken for
public: use. As further contracts for the„trest

be authorised by Congress this number may be
enlarged indefinitely.
The enlightened policy by which a maid com
munication with the various distant parts of the
globe is established, .by means'of American
built sea-steamers, would find an ample reward
in the increase of our commerce, . . and in making
our country and its ; resources more favorably
known abroad; but. the national advantage is
5611 greater, of having our natal officers made
familiar with steam navigation; and of having

fl THE ERRONEOUS IMPRESSION that a variety of
medicines are necessary to conquer as many seemingly vari
ous maladies, is fas. giving way to more rational views. All
medicine, to be effective, must enter the blood.and must flow
with it to every part of the body. The effect the medicine
produces, is a general effect, extending over the whole sy
tern, though it maybe manifested outwardly at a pectiliar o -
gen. There is no such thing as a purely local effect produC . -
ed. except by the use of active persons. As well it might be
required to eat a separate dish in order to nourikh each parti
cular part of the body, ns to require a different remedy for ev
ery apparently d.fferent lament. The truth is all disease ari
ses from one cause, acting in different parts of the body
This doctrine is self-evident that but few at the present day
