THE TRUE WAY TO RECOVER
HEALTH,
rpi- An individual only wishes to know the right
Way to intnote and there are noire, wire it surely
made known how LIFE might be prolonged and
Health recovered, who would net doubt the plan.—
Evidence is required that the right way is discovered
This is what those suffering from sickness want to be
satisfied about. For who it so 1 0 111iAh 71.1 not t r enjoy
all the health that his body is capable of? Who is
there &at would not live when hi. experience can so
much benefit himself and faini:yf his a melancholy
fact that a very large proportion of the ?mist useful
membera of society die between tl e ages of thirty turd
forty. How many widows and helplrsa orphans have
been the consequence of mandkind not luiving in their
own power the means of restoring health tAllen , Jutt.
NOW all these dangers and difficulties can be pre•. en
ted and the long and certain sickness, and by assisting
nature in the outset, with a gond dose of Brandreth's
Pills. This is a fact. well underat taxi to be no by thou
sands of our citizens. This medicine, if taken so as
to purge freely, will surely cure any curable disease.—
There is no form or kind of sickness that it does not
exert &curative influence upon. Thus, by their pow
er in resisting putrefaction, they owe measles, small
pox, worms and all contageous fevers. There is not a
medicine in the world so able to purify the masa of
blood, and restore it to a healthy condition, as the
Brandreth Pills. •
The Brandreth Pills are ptirely vegetable, and so
innocent that the infant of a month old may use them,
if medicine is required. not only with safety but with a
certainty of teceiving all the benefit medicine is capa
ble ofimparting. Females may use diem in all the erit
tud periods of their lives. The Brandreth Pills will
insure their health, and produce regularity in all the
functions of life.
The same may be said of Brandreth's external
rtmedy, as an outward application to all external pains
or swellings, or sores, it greatly assists the cure.
When used where the skin is very tender or broken,
it should be mixed with one or two pints of water.
A sure test of genuine Brawl, ell& Pt:la.—Exam
iue the box of Pills. Then look at the certificate of
agency, whose engraved date must be within the year,
which emery authoriaed agent must possess; if the three
labels on the box agree with the three labels on the eel
tifieote, the rills are true—if not. they are false,

IMPORTANT
DR. LI:IDI"S Sarsaparilla Blood Pills are applica
ble in all cases, whether for Purgatiins or Pu
elfication, They possess all the boasted virtues of
other pills, and are additionally efficacious, containing
Igarsaparilla in their composition, which is notcomain
ea in any other pills in existence. They are also dif
ferent from other pills in composition, being purely
vegetable, and can be employed at all times, without
any danger, and requiring no restraint from occupation
or usual course of living.
Notwithstanding Dr. Leidy never pretended his
Blood Pills would cure all diseases, yet it is not saying
um much of them, from the innumerable cures perform
ed by them in every variety and form of disease (cer
tificates of many of which have heel published from
persons of all denominations, physicians, clergymen,
and others) that they seem to be almost universal in
their effect; and persons using them foe whatever sick-
ness or disease, may rest assured thatthey will be found
more efficacious than any other pills in existence.
From the known reputation of Dr. Leidy's Blood
Pill, it is necessary to remind the public where they
can at all times procure the genuine, as itis attempted
to impose other pills, called the 'Blood Pills' upon the
public on the reputation of Dr. Leidy's. CEP Be par
ticular and ask for Dr. Leidy's Sarsaparilla Mood Pills
and see that the name of N. B. Leidy is contained on
two aides of each box, (the boxes being of paper, and
i, squareshape, surrounded by a yellow and black

Published, in favorer the neatinexation of Texas; and
17 b.
the same opinions have eften expressed by me
since my election , in 1838 th e Senate of the Union,
It was a reyolution in Ales thatproduced the con-
flict for independence in Texas. The citizens of
Texas had been invited there by Mexico, under the
solemn guaranty of the federal constitution of 1824.
This constitution, to which Texas so long and faithfel,
ly adhered, wits prostrated by the usurper Strata Anna.
After a severe struggle, the people of Mimic° were
subdued by a mercenary army; the States were semi-
Itilated, end a military dictator was placed 111 the bend
of a central despotism. In the a apital of Mexico,
and of the state of Coahuila and Texas, the civil su,
thorities were suppressed by the bayonet; the disarm
ing of every citizen was decreed, and the soldiery of
the usurper proceeded to enforce this edict. The
people of Texas resolved to resist, sad perish upon the
6e1.1 of battle, rather than submit to the despotic sway
of a treacherous and sanguina7 military dictator.
Short was the conflict, and glonous the issue. The
American race was successful; the armies of the ty
rant were overthrown and dispersed, and the dicuttor
himself was captured. lie was released' by Texae i
and restored to his country, havingSrst acknowledged,.
by a solemn treaty, the independence of Texas. Af
ter the fall of Sent& Apar, end the total rent° end 4il
- of the Mexican army, and when a rendeote,
tion bad become hopeless, I introduced into die Senate •
the resolution acknowledging the huleitendence
Texas. It was adopted in March, 1837, end th e •
of Texas inscribed on the roll of independent poi ~
Subsequently, France, Englend, and ifolhed, have
recognised her independence; and Texas ear has all
the rights of sovereignty over her territory sad peo
ple, as full and perfect as any other nation of the world,
It was. to Amin, and not to Mexico, that we theneke,
red Texas by treaty; and it was by a revelation in
Mexico,-anti the recognition of her independence not
by Spain, but by this republic and other cations:that .
Mexico acquired any title to Texas. It was by
rt successful revolution, and the expulsion, of Span
ish power that Mexico, unrecognized by S gr,
acquired all her right to this territory; end it is e ,
similar successful revolution that Texas bits met
the same territory. These principles have been re•
cognized for many years by Mexcio,and by this rerito•
lie; and it is absurd in Mexico now to attempt
to recall her unequivocal assent - . , to these dm
trines, and ask to be permitted to change the well
settled law of nations, and oppose the reonnteationof
Texas. It is an admitted principle of the law of na
tions, that every sovereignty may cede the whole Ise
any part of their territoly, unless remainedby some
constitutional interdict; and wtich, if it exist, May
be removed by the mote sovereign power which im
posed the limitation. There hetlerwever, no such li
mitation in the constitution of Terra, Wkich is a single
central government, with the same authority to make
the cession, as appertained tg France or Spain, fn the
transfer of Louisiana or Florida. Nor does it change
the question of power, that these were distant colo
nies; for this sovereignty extends alike over every per'
thin of thenation: and this principle woefully meg,
nized, when Mr. Adam:, as Presideut, and Mr. Clay,
as Secretary of State, in 1825 and in 1827,111n/trees
lions Wgeir Minister etMexico, and General Jesksete •
as President, and Mr. Van Buren, as Secretary of
State, by subsequent similar instructioto in 1829, en;
ileavored to procure from Mexicothe c on '
of Tome .
then a contiguous and integral portion
confederacy. Andif a nation may cede a portion
her ten i tory, being completely sovereign over the whole
she may certainly cede the whole; and, in any event,
this would be a question, not of our right • to receive
bet' of the authorize of the ceding nation to make the
transfer, or simply en ininiry, whether we obtained a
good or bad title. In this case, the tide would biltjuse 4,„ ,.
questionable; for Texas being independent infect:kid I
so recognized by ourselves, and the great powers -of,'
Europe, ea completely - sovereign throarghout her terri , "
tory, Mexicecould redcap° justobjection to the trams, •
ter.
. .
In 1836, this question, together with that of _ratite. •
leg their constitution, was nth/flexed by the constd '
tad authorities tothe people of Texas, who, with w
paralelled unanimity, (there being tent ninety-a t m
dissenting votes,) decided in favor of re-anneution.
Texas, then, has already assented to. the reennexi ,
Lien, not merely by the act of all Mar tunimehea k but .
of her people, and made it a pert end parcel of the er
ganirntion of the government itself, and he who, with e
