WRIGHT'S
INDIAN VEGETABLP ! PILLS
Of the North American College of Health
This extrnoTdiiiary . medtcine is founded upon the
principle that the human frame is' subject to. ONLY
ONE DICIEASE. viz .Corrupt Humors. or in otner words
Impurity of the Blood, and -nothing save vegetable
cleansing, is wanted in order to drive disease of every
description from the body.
If the channels of our mighty rivers should be—
come choked up, would north° accumulated waters
find Pew outlets, or the country be inundated)—Just
so with the human, body; tithe natural drains become
closed, the accumulated impurities will most assured
ly find vent in some form of disease or death will be a
certain consequence.'
WRIGHT'S INDIAN. VEGETABLE PILLS
are eminently calculated for carrying out thisurtaND
PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because they area purgative
medicine so justly balanced -andwithal- so natural
to the human constitution, that they cannot possibly
injure the most delicate; at the same time, if used in
such a manner as to produce free evacuations by the
bowels, and repeated a few times, it will be absolute
ly impossibin for pain or distress of any kind to con
tinue in the body. A single twenty five cent box of
the shove, named Indian Vegetable Pills will, in all
east's', give relief, sometimes even beyond the r"- -
"rwords to describe, and if persevered in fr
time, there is not a malady in-the whole cot
man ills that can possibly withstand their at
arid wonderful influence. Wntuireelmiter
aLs. PILLS Ire a certain sure for
COSTIVENESS.
Because they completely cleanse the 'stm
bowels from those bilious and corrupt
paralyse and weaken the digestive ors
are the cause of headache, nausea, and
), : palpitation of she heart, rheumatic pai
nous parts of the body, and many otbcr
ilniptoms.
In all disordered motions of the Blot
Intermittent, Remittent, Nervous, Inflamm;
i'utrid
FEVERS
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will be found a ter
rain remedy; because thy cleanse the stomach and
bowels from all hilhous humors and purify the
blood; consequently. us they remove every kind of
disease, they are absolutely certain to cure every kind
of fever,
So. also when morbid humors are deposited upon
the membrane and muscle, causing those pains infla
'nation and swelling,called '
It II EU %I ATLSNI,,GOUT,
Wright's Indian Vegetable F r ills may be kelied on as
always certain to give relief, and persvered with,
will mast assuredly, and without fail, make a per
fect cure of the above painful maladies.—From three
to six of said Indian Vegetable Pills taken every night
OD going to bed, will, in a short time, completely rid
the body from all morbid ano corrupt humors; and
`rlieuniatisni. gout. and pain of every description, will
disappear, as if by magic.
For the swine reason, when, from sudden changes'
of the atmosphere, or any other cause, the perspira
'ion is checked, and those humors which should pass
off by the skin, arethrowffiinwardly. causing headache,
nausea, ard sickness, pain in the bones, watery and
inflamed e;'es, sore throat, hoarseners,coughs. con.
sumpt ion, rheumatic paws In various part of the body
and many other symtodis of
CATCIIINO COLD,
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will invariably give
inuntAilate relief. Three or four pills taken at night
on going to bed,_ and repeated a few times, will
remove all the above unpleasant symtoms, and
restore the body to even sounder health than before.
The same may be said of difficulty of breathing,
or
ASTHMA
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will loosen and
carry off by the stomach and Ixrwels those rough and
phlegmy humors which stop the air cells of the
lungs, And are the cause of the above dreadful corm

It shotdd also be remembered that WRIGHT'S
INDI AIN'VEGF:PA BLE PILLS are certain to remove
pain in the side. oppression, nausea and sickness, loss
of appetite, costiveness. a yellow tinge of the skin
and tycs, and every other symptoms of
LIVER COMPLAINT.
Because they purge from the body those corrupt and
stagnant humours, which when deposited on the liver,
are the cause of the above dangerous complaint;
They are also hi prevent
APOPLEXY AND SUDDEN DEATH.
Because they carry off those humours which obstruc
ting the circulation, are the cause of a rush, or deter.,
Initiation of blood to the head; giddiness, especially
otfturoing suddenly round, blindness. drowsiness, loss
of memory. intlamation ut the brim, insanity, and all
disorders of the mind.
Those who labour within doors should remember
that they frequently breathe an atmosphere which is
wholly unfit thr the proper expansion of the lungs,
and at the 'tiatile time owing to vi ant of exercise, the
bowels ate not sufficiently evacuated, the blood
becomes itunore, and headache;iridtgestion, palpita

symtoins are sure to follow.

A grlculturtil Productions ;of Cuba.
Scosn.—The average amount !exported from
1760 to 1767 was about 13,000 brixes of 400 lbs.
each—and from 1786 to 1791, 68,000 boxes. By
Royal orders et the .28th Feb. 'B9 'and 21st Nov.
•
'9l, permission was granted for the admission of
foreign vessels, en condition of their bringing in
Negroes, and about, the beginning: of the present
century, national vessels were allowed to go to
Africa. In the first date the Pprt of Santiago
de Cuba was opened, and under the ad-ministra
tion of Governor Don Luis de Jas Casas, who
•
succeeded at this epoch, free commerce was gran
ted to all the ports in Spain, and to neutral na
tions. This gave an impetus toren the agricul
tural productions of Cuba, and chief protection
to this fruit. The immigrations from Santo Do
mingo, growing out of the disturbances of France.
and in that colony in the year 1791, and subse
quently which drove many experienced and ac
climated colonists hither ; and the introduction
of the Cane from the Island of Otitheite of greater
size and juice, all these fortunat circumstances
for this Island meeting, fermented this plant, and
bettered its production in manner so well known,
that its exportation in the year 1790 to 1800, av
eraged 110,091 boxes per annuin.' From 1800 to
18/0 the export was 177,998; from 1810 to 1820,
207,696 ;'from 1820 to 1825, 250,384; in 1826,
271,013 ; and in 1827, 264,954 boxes, or 106
millions of pounds! To which the consumption
of the Island must be added at 30 or 40 millions
of pounds per annum. The exports from Havan
na and Matanzas alone were
840, 712,544 boxes 400 lbs. each, inclu
ding to the United States, 127,616 box.

pounds average for each of the last three years!
To which vast increase of supply the Steam 4n
gine has in part contributed by its effective and
prompt elaboration. Besides the above, a great
deal of inferior sugar, called “Rapadura," not fit
for exportation is- made and consumed at home.
and the great quantity Of Molasses and Rum may
be estimated, when the export' of the former in
1827 amounted to 74,000 Hogsheads from the
whole Island. In that rear 35,000 pipes of Rum
or Aguardienie de Cana' were knowt to be dis
tilled ; but only 2,457 pipes exported—the great
balance consumed ! But both 'these articles have
almost lost all demand, and are scarcely worth as
much as' the casks that contain them, owing to
the protection in the United. States of their Louis

Mrs. Woodsville left the room, and her spouse,
after looking at his watch, left ihe house. He was
soon immersed in businesr, forgetting all about
Arabella, or her party. So, when he came home
in 'the evening, he was surprised to had his house
all bustle, and brilliantly illuminated.—Being a
very quiet man his surprise did not last long.
• Mr. Woodville began life a poor boy ; now be
was what the world calls wealthy. He owned
ships and houses, and was the head of a flourish
ing •mercantile establishment. Through all, ho
had been upright and honorable—a plain, straight
forward, sensible men; fund of his home, and fond
of peace.
The party, that night, was to be a splendid
one. No pains or expense had been spared, by
either Arabella or her mother, in arranging every
thing in the most magnificent style.
When Mr. Woodville entered the drawingroom,
be found the guests partly assemblen, end Arabella,
dressed in the splendor of an Eastern princess,
ready to receive Item. The father's eye, as he
glanced upon the noble looking girl, acknowledg
ed she was handsome. But when ho turned to
his youngest, quiet Aggle, his heart felt the differ
ence.
Her dress was of simple white, with no orna
ment save one little moss-rose bud, half hid nmong
her soft ..brown curls.
She looked very lovely . ; so thought her father
—and so Eugene Dosmarlie seemed to think also;
(or there he stood close beside her gazing into the
blue depths of her well-like eyes; no doubt think
ing of her sister Arabella:
Mrs. Woodville did not observe any of this; or
if she did it never once entered her head that any
one could prefer the timid Agnes to the brilliant
Arabella.
Throughout the whole evening Desmarlie
showed the mist marked attention to the shrink-
ing Agnes. Once an the dance the little moss
bud fell horn tier hair. Eugene picked it up anti
said to her, in a low voice—
•Sweet Agnes, give me this. I will look at it
when alone, and think of a far lovelier flower.'
Agnes held out her little hand for it; but he
kept the rose, and earnestly pressed the baud.—
All this was done very quickly and very quietly..
The warm pressure of his band thrilled to her very
soul. The first approach of love brings with it 0
strange emotion• Agnes-felt as though a new be
ing had sprung up within her, end token its abode
at her heart. That halal seemed full even to Fiin;
sad it was the pain of joy. The fulness there
poured itself from her soft eyes: Eugene drank
the love, beaming forth from them, mail Ms heart
was full like here.
The party was aver, and Eugene went home
to dream of her
~, The moss-rose bud lay next his
heart: it seemed the fitting place for itt it was so
like the gentle, blushing Agues.
And Agnesl- r love in her young bosom was a
new guest. She cried herself to sleep, sad awoke
the, next morning a new being ; a being with a.
soul; a child no longer.
When Arabella found herself in her own apart
ment, alone, ,she threw herself on the neitrest
neat that offered itself. Her bright smiles were
gone ; she looked Weary and unhappy. She bu
sied her face in her jewelled hand, and seemed for
a long time lest in sad thotights. She arose at
length and stood before the mirror.
.1 almost thought,' said sire aloud, .1 had grown
ugly and deformed. Vaulty is very foolish and
spoils beauty. 1 em not vain ; but I am very
beautiful, and beauty is power. Every eye around
me ,
tells me jam beautiful : my glass tells me so,
but I am not conscious of possessing any beauty,
oh, no, I am very artless, and am not in the least
aware of my own surpassing loveliness; therein,
also, lies power. What a good actress I should
have made. What the world has lost.'
Sire still looked at her own oo:sing form in the
large mirror, and still mused on. Her m nouns
were a type of her own character.
'He was with her all..the evening, with my sis
ter. That was to try me. He cannot admire the
baby face of my sister more than the one I sad re
flected before me. He shall love me: as I live he
shall. I will sleep to:night and wear my gayest
smiles and brightest eyes for him to-morrow. And
to make all sure I will say to good little timid
sister that Eugene Desbiarlie is a very naughty
boy, and a great flirt, and warn her very kindly
to beware of trim. I well tell her how many
hearts helms broken, but that I am certain if he
levee any one his myself—that he has told me as
much. Yes, that will do. ` Agnes is truth itself—
all -I tell her she will behave. So good night.'
TIM morrow came, end' with it came Eugene'
Desmailie to the house of Mr. Woodville. He
found the sisters alone in the drawing-room.
Agnes almost immediately left the room, but
not until - Eugene bad placed within her hand a
small bonquet of rare flowers, and not until she
bad given him a warm blush and a half glance
from her soft eyes in return.
Eugene was angry at her for going. He talk
ed sea laughed the morning away with her sister;
and almost vowed to himself to love her out of.
spite. Arabella had done what she bad promised
herself the night before so far she tatuksucceeded.
She bad given her brightest smiles, and her dark:
eyes had beamed so much fascination that Eugene
'seemed charmed in spite-of himself. Agnes did'
; not dpubt the tale her sister bad told her.• She
felt so fearful of betraying the love she felt for
Eugesiti that she shunned him— Arabellasa.v that
so far heriaan bad succeeded. She ores one 'to
dazzle—rib take captive the heart of man by storm.
Agnes could win kive : she was formed to steal
into the heart like low, soft mnsic. Therein lay
the difference between those two sisters.
Eugene cameagani the neat day. Aral?elle was'
not at home-- . -be raw Agnes alone.' She seemed,
very shy, but her tensity gradually melted before
his frank, earnest manner. She forgot her sister's
caution, was her own natural self; and Eugene
thought be had never seen so lovely; so loveable a
thing as she war. She played and sang for him.
and as be looked into her youilg, half down-cast
eyes, spa upon her blushing; temier-face, he won
dered how ho, could ever, fir one Moment; havi
admired her sister. He was on the Point of telling
her itcliw lOvely she was, and hoar well worth ha

entered. She was so full of ' bright spirits, and'
!oohed sally 'and radiant that his gentle dreams
vanished with her presence. Agnes tried to make
clue in the conversation,- but her iiinidity returned
hefiire her sister's sparkling sallies. She, soon
limed an excuse to leave the room. Eugene won
dered why, thought it very strange; was again half
angry with her, but he soon forgot all in the syren
smiles of her brilliant sister. Arabella mum]
herself to the utmost to please without appearing
to do so. That she did please she was sure: she
always knew just what so say; and what she said
Bras with a sprightliness and grace peculiarly her
Own.
Eugene was completely bewildered; scarcely a
day passed that did not find hint et Mr. Wood-
Sometimes he saw the whole family, but
more frequently no one but Arabella. Agnes grew
More and more shy. At times when be saw her
alone he could bring her ont; and then he discover
ed what a well of rich ,thought lay bid beneath
'her every day diffidence.
Eugene was ahem many like him have been
before—halting befween two opinions. The one
dazzling, bright, beautiful—the other equally beau
tiful, less dazzling, more loveable, more gentle.
Agnes was sitting alone, eo deeplngiged in
thought that she did not observe a figure — Me/mg
the room until it was close beside her. Her
thoughts were not happy ones, for tears were in
her eyes.
'My Agnes! my dearest daughter! Agnes tell
'me what ails thee?'
The father sat down and gently drew his child
Ito his bosom.
,"
.You are not the same you were a month ago,
Agnes. Tell your father all that troubles you,

sister told me that he—that he loved tier. Since

And she burst into tears afresh. ;

cy that absence may remove. hear papa let me
go, I cannot stay here.'
'lf you wish it you certainly shall.' And the
father fondly 'kissed his child and tried by words
of kindness to win her from heir sorrow.
Eugene Desmarlie had not been that day at
Mr. Woodville's'. He had spent the boors in his
own room looking into his own heart ; the dejec
ted expression of his face plainly indicated that he
was not satisfied with what he found there. Pis
spirits were depressed to an extent of which per
sona, with a lees.quicksilver temperament thap his,
know nothing. In fact conscience, that had slept
so long, was aroused within him. lie thought
how wrong he had bean. lie thought of how
unhappy Agnes had looked the day before, and of
the bright smile o i l triumph her sister wore. He
looked at the mossoruse bud and reproached him
self that the heart of the one thet had worn it,
seemed withered like itself. He resolved to go to
the father of Agues and confess the wrong.
A rap came at the door of his room, and et the
same moment a young man, apparently a few
years the senior of Eugene, entered.
' 'Welcome, Georges' said Eugene, warmly clas
ping the hand of the new comer, 'you, of all oth
ers, are the being I most wish to see:
*NV hot ! you surely forget Arabella.'
.Natife her not to me, George.'
