Although not disposed to favor or recommend Patent Medicines in fgeneral, through distrust of their ingredients and effects; I yet know of no eufficient.reasun ,why a man may not testify to the :benefit he huliuxes himself to have received from any simple preparation in the hope that he may thus contribute to the benefit of others. Ido this the more readily in regard to Roof land's German Bitters, prepared by Pr. C. M. Jackson, of this city, because I was prejudiced — against them for many years, under the impres sion that they were chiefly an alcoholic mixture, lam indebted to my friend Robert Shoemaker, Esq ~for the removal of this prejudice by proper ..ests, and for enccuragement to try them, when • suffering from great and long continued debility. The use of three bottles of these Bitters, at the : beginning of the present year, was followed by .evident relief, and restoration to a degree of ..tiodily and mental vigor which I had not felt for . ix months before, and had almost depaired of re . : wining.

HOW A BRAVE MAN SAVED A CITY. The following incident, which is related by an eye witness of the scenes described, most happily illustrated the power pos sessed by a single indivdnal of a determined will, in whom are combined coolness, judgment and fearlessness of danger, over an unorganized mob of savages, thirsting for blood, and in their blind fury reckless of consequences. The Nth of August, ISI2, was a day that will l be long remem bered by the people of Ilfetroit, for it was on that day that the old and imbecile hull in the capacity of Governor of the Michigan Territory, shamefully surrendered his im portant post, then garrisoned by two thousand brave and efficient Loops to the British and Indians. As soon as the articles of capitulation were signed, the enemy crossed--the river from Mitten and took possession of the place followed by a rabble of vile camp fol lowers and all the savages that for some weeks had been attached to the English, camp. Of course the citizens were thrown' into the utmost dismay at the sight of the painted Indians swarming their streets and the knowledge that they might at any hour, when inadilend by whisky and en couraged by their no less savage allies among the whites,make an indiscriminate plunder of the town. But the influence of the British Genet al for some days was sufficient to keep them from acts of open violence and by dee rees the town people became accustomed to their presence, anu strove by all means in their power to in gratiate themselvs into the good graces of their captors. When the news of the surrender reached the tribes of the south-west they gathered from far and near and poured down upon the frontier to share in the plunder, which, in consideration of their being allies of the British, they deemed tiemselves justly entitled to. Detroit was filled and sur rounded with savages, an 1 the town be came a scene of drunken orgies and terror. which the English were altogether 'tumble to control. Scarcely a day passed without an act of siolerice upon the unprotected citizens, and the nights were rendered sleepless by the fierce yells and whoops of these drunken fiends.' One day, during the fearful period, a small party of Indians, rest less for want of plunder and scalps, went to a sore kept bya Frenchman named DeQuin der, and two of them entered with the pretense that they wished to purchase something, while their comrades remain ed without. There were lying on the coun ter two pieces of cloth. The Indians seeing them each snatched a roll and turned to leave the place. De Quinder called to them to stop as they had not paid fur the goods. But the savages were passing out el' the door, to rejoin their laughing eom pamons with the cloth under their arms, when the Frenchman, leaping over the eonnter, jerked the goods from them, and heitig a powerful mampitched the two In dians into the street. Instantly the war whoop was raised by the party which was replied to from till parts of the town and the savages, drawing their knives, made a rush at the imprudent storekeeper. But the latter immediately perceiving the terrible storm he liad incau tiously invoked, sprang back again to his store,and locking the door,ran into the up per room from which by a window nuele his es,ape and through aback alley out up on the common and on to the fort, where he begged the British commanding officer to protect himself and property from des truction. But the. ()Meer could e n d wo u ld do nothing. although he saw that the l e : dians would probably massacre the entire population if they ("mei. got agOing, under such a state avx , iLement. "It is not my property alone that is in danger front their violence," persisted the Frenchman. ••but the entire population is in tke hands of the savages,and unless you will exert vou authority to quiet them our streets will flow with blood." ant sorry fur you, sir," coolly replied the Briton, • •but the truth is my troops are too few in number to control the warriors, arid I can do nothing for you." De Quindre therefoze abruptly left the fort. and ran to the quarters of Colonel McKee, and then the British agent, whom he knew was not popular among the sav ages, but had always exerted over them unbounded intlunee. Ou his way he could. see that Indians were gathering m hundreds from every di rection, armed with war clubs and toma hawks, prepared for a general massacre of the inhabitants; while their fierce war cries were ringing with piercing tones up on the air. A mob of at least a thousand of the painted demons had assembled in front of his house, and demolished his doors and windows, while his goods were being thrown out to the crowd waitingim patiently for the ownerto be dragged forth and delivered to their murderous knives. This sight gave fleetness to his feet, and rushing into the colonel's quarters he Pound that officer, lowborn he briefly, and as distinctly as his excitement would per mit related what had occured, and begged him to interfere if possible, and prey en the threatened massacre, McKee well versed in the Indian char acter instantly perceived the imminent danger that menaced the place, and re quested be Quindre to remain where he was, lest the Indians, so greatly exaspera ed against him might kill him, hastened to the scene of excitement. Ile was a tall, straight, athletic, noble looking man, with a voice like thunder, and from his long intercourse with the In duals of the frontier, had acquired an in timate knowledge of their language.— Pushing his way through the savages now excited to madness at not finning the Frenchman, he mounted to the top of a low building, waved his sword, and in a loud tone shouted: "Ho! who are the cowards in this crowd?' The sound of his well known voice ar rested the attention of the yelling rabble, and after a brief silence, one o f the Indians replied: "There are no cowards here! We are all braves!" "It is a lie" returned the colonel stamp ing his foot with pretended rage. "I tell you warriors, there are cowards, craven cowards among you!" This insulting accusation was received with astonishment by the Indiaceat first and then they turned toward the bold man who had dared to utter it; with eyes burning with passion, and a yell of defiance broke from them. But without moving a muscle the courageous agent met their fiery glances unquailed. He had changed the tide of feeling, and thus far he had gained a very important point. "I repeat it," continued the colonel, straightening his tall, commanding figure to its utmost stretch ; "there are cowards, sneaking wolves, in this crowd, that I am ashamed to see among my brat% Indians! Now, let my brave warriorsseparatethem selves from them, and stand .on this side of the path_, while the cowards remain about the 'Frenchman's door=-4.11ey are perfectly welcome to plunder hisMorthlear goods!" '• The powerful voice of the white man now struck upon the ears of the savages with an electric effect, and once mores re vulsion of feeling took place among them. The tempest of angry passion was instant subdued, and the loud yells to low mur murs, while the entire mass, as if im pelled by one common sentiment, moved together to the other side of the street,and raising their faces to where the brave offi cer was standing, seemed to await his fur ther orders. "That is well, my friends," cried he. "Now let every brace man follow me. Thd emcarols . may remain behind and se cure their plunder." So saying, the colonel descended from his elevated position, and led them to the common beyond the town, where, mount ing a stump,he detained them with a good natured harangue while he sent off to the Commissary:s store for a barrel of whisky. When it arrived he invited the Indians to drink. Thebarrel was soon emptied and another was sent for, till under the mel lowing influence of the strong water the fiery warriors forgot their late excitement and, by the prompt and determined ac tion of this brave white man, were re strained from fiirther violence. Through out the night, however, there were fre• quently heard, amid the drunken sounds, the threatening words of "fire, blood, scalps and plunder." But Col. McKee had provided against further trouble from the discontented spirits among the Indians, by selecting the sober warriors and despatching two to each of the dwellings of the citizens who bad been most strongly threatened. Thesd fel lows, wrapping themselves in their Klan- bets, stretched themselves on the trout door-steps as a guard to protect the in mates from any sudden outbreak of sav age fury. Thus the energetic conduct of this brave officer on that critical occasion saved the city of Detroit from the torch of the sav age, and its people from indiscriminate slaughter. In a great crisis one brave. clear-headed man is worth many timid statesmen or cowardly rhetoricians. MORNING POST STEAM PRINTING usTA.tir,rsll3.lTl'NT.
