Thu "Syrup" has been used, and its astonishing cu rative qualities testified to, by many of the most res pectable citizens of the United States. We do not, nay cannot claim as the quack does infallibility for our medicine but having tested the medicine qualities of the "Pulmonary Syrup," in an extensive and varied Medical Practise for many_years, with unpredecented success, we unhesitatingly pronounce it one of the ve ry best remedies in the world, for Pulmonary Diseases. Give it a fair trial, and you 'will be thoroughly convin ced, that it is not one of the common quark nostrums of the day, but a medicine of real veldt—one that is well worthy of the high and enviable reputation, which it has won; and one worthy to be in every family. A nother reason, why ALL should use the " Pulmonary Syrup," is its remarkable cheapness, while other med !eines legs in quintity'and inferior in efficacy, are eel linfor $l,OO and more, Steellling's Pulmonary Syrup, sells for the impredeeented low price of 5 0 cis, per bot tle. . • • head_ the. following strong testimony. in favour of Steello'sTottormary Syrup, given by a.veir respec-. table .tailor; of Jobstown, Burlington co., New ley. • • - Jons•row.v, Dec. 12th, 1843. -Dr. Wm.

I was obliged,to lay bolstered up any bed ; when I laid down, I was afraid of sutrocalidg from excessive coughing; and,it was with the utmost difficulty: that I could raise the Matter from toy lungs. My relations and. friends, quite despaired of my ever recovering. I used a number of medicines,' without any desirable effect t t At'this critical period, I 'was so fottPlmte as to procure some of your Pulmonary Syr up, which immediately enabled me to expecterate with ease,and by the time I had taken four bottles. I was perfectly cured of my couch, and My flesh, which I had . lost, twenty. pounds, returned with my usual.streneth.

It has produced a deep impression upon all , who were present,and was seen by more persdns than have witnessed any previous debate during' the ses sion. Mr. McDufffe Writhed hi teeming agony of 'spirit and body,under the charges of t disunion and nallifiention made by Mr. Benton, wild when Mr. Benton said he would meet him at Philippi, in his efforts to destroy the Union, aml not as here, with his voice and his pen, but sword in hand, to die if need be in defence of the Union, a murmur of applause run through the galleries which not thing could restrain. The rebuke was just and terrible, and the po- sition of Mr. Benton a noble one, that will cover a multitude of sins. Alt ho said was for the 11 - neon, and for this out of doors, he isj called a trai tor to his party r When Mr. Denton said he would meet the Disunionists at Phillippi, General Clinch, of Geor gia, a • whole hearted man, went to'Mr. Benton and said in the fulness of a patriotic heat'!" that he would be there With him I When Mr. Penton left his seat; he took John Quincy Attamsj i who was seated behind i him, by the hand, and said "Mr . Adams, yliat are passing off the stage, and lam passing away also, but while we live. we will stand by 111 T. UN I ON. " This is the language of true licr j oism, and Mr. Benton has given abundant evidence of the•truth of his feelings attd resolutions. 1.

We have, however, in theiliational Intelli. gen= of yesterday the followingl information, .01 the correctness of which we have no doubt: I " MORE ABOUT 4.F.X1C0.-.-Wel learn, since our last, through a I private channel, cintirely , to be rt..- lied upon, that the true 'information from Mexico is; that the peopie of that country; were never more united than the are in their oppdsiticn to the sur„ render of Texas; that they are determined to HS ten to no tcrmo in regard to the project of 'annex edam'l that they contiMie„to regard .Texas as a ;part of their tei; l ritory, and 'to a inan'.prcfcr war to any compromise of what they conceive to be their unquestionable rights upon the kubject. It is now perfectly.clear, and must be so oven those who havee hitherto donbted, that if the Senate of the United States had not resisted and defeated the Project of 'immediate annexation; we should have been at this mnment at war with Mexico. The -wisdom and foresight manifested by Mr. Cur in his Texas letter now stantlikorth in broad relief- Cot.
