TILE TRUE WAY TO RECOVER
HEALTH.
IreAn individu a l only wishes to know the right
way to pursue it; and there are none, wore it surely
made known how Ltrz might be prolonged and
Health recovered, who would not doubt the plan.—
Evidence is required that the right way in discovered
This is what those suffering from sickness want to be
satisfied about. For who is so foolish as not to enjoy
all Abe health that his body is capable oft Who is
there that would not live when his experience can so
much benefit himself and family? If in a melancholy
fact that a very large proportion of the most useful
members of society die between the ages of thirty and
forty. How many widows and helpless orphans have
been the consequence of mandkind not having in their
own power the means of restoring health when last.
Now all these clangers and difficulties can bo preven
ted and the long and certain sickness, and by assisting•
nature in the outset, with a good dose of Brandreth's
Pills. This is a fact, well understood to be so by thou
sands of oar citizens. This medicine, if taken so ns
to purge freely, will surely cure any curable disease.—
There is zee form or kind of sickness that it does not
groan a curative influence upon. Thus, by their pow
er in resisting putrefaction, they cure measles, small
pox, worms and all contageou s fevers. There is note
medicine in the world so able to purify the mass of
blood, and restore it to a healthy condition, as the

The Brandreth Pills are purely vegetable, and so"
innocent that the infant of a month old may use them,
if medicine is required, nut only with safety but with a
certainty of receiving all the benefit medicine is capa
ble ofimparting. Females may use them in all the crit•
cal 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
remedy, as an outward application to all external pains
or swellings, or sores, it greatly assists the cure.
IVtien used where the skin is very tender or broken,
it should be mixed with one or two pints of water.
4 sure test of genuine Brandieth Pills.—Exam
ine the box of Pills. Then look at the certificate of
agency, whose engraved date must be within the year,
which eery authorised agent mustpossess; if the three
labels on the box agree with the three labels on the cer
tificate, the Pills are true—if not, they are false.

any danger, and requiring no restraint from occupation
or usual course of living.

tificates of many of which have been published from
persons of all denominations, physicians, clergymen,
~,sod others) that they seem to be almost universal in
their effect; and persons using them for whatever sick
ness or disease, may rest assured that they will befound
more efficacious than any other pills in existence.
From the known reputation of Dr. Leidy's Blood
Pill, it is necessary to remind th 3 public where they

It was in view, no doubt, ofthese Awes, that Mr Da
vis of New York, declared, upon the Boer of Congress,
on the 29th December, 1843, that "the abolition of
slavery in the southern States must be foil*, ad by a
deluge of black population to toe Nora, filling our
jet7s and poor hoxaes& bringingdesentegow upon he,
laboring portion of the people." Duncan, also
of Cincinnati, Ohio, in his speech in k
ogress he
the'
6th January , 1844, declared the meek of abortion
would be to inundate the North with free blacks, des
a by him as "paupers, beggars, thieved, assassins
desperadoes, all, or nearly all. penniless end des
/
i titutte without skill, meens,iednatry or ce to
'obtain a livelihood; each possessing a cherishing ne
venge fur supposed or real wrongs. No teen's fireside,
person, family or property, would be safe by day or
night. It now requires the whole energies of the law
and the whole vigilance of the polies of all ourprinc
, pal eldest° restrain and keep in subordination the
few stregglinefree negroee which now infest them."
If such be the case now, what will be the cue when,
by abolition, gradual or immediate , the numbee
of these free negroes shall be doubled and quadrupled,
and deouplecl, in the more northern of the slavelto !ding
States,before slavery had receded from their Ilmits,and
nearly the whole of which free black population would
be thrown on the adjacent non-davehokling Stated
Much, if not all of this great evil, 'rid be prevented by
the rsannexation ef Texas. Since the purchase of
Louisiana and Florida, and the settlement of Alabama
and Mississippi, there have been carried into this re
gion as the census demonstrates, from the states of'
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and Kentucky, half" a
million of slaves, including their descendants, that
otherwise would now be within the limits ef those four
States. Such has been the result as to have diminish
ed, in two of these States nearest to the Noah, the
number elf their slaves far below what they were at
the census of 1790, and to hare reduced them at the
census of 1840, in Delaware, to the small number of
2,605. Now ' we if double the rafter diminution,as we
certainly will by the reannexation. of Texas, slavery
will disappear from' Delaware in 10 years, (tom Mary
land in twenty, and havegready clintinishea in Virgi
nia and Kentucky. As, then, by reannexation, slavery
advances in Texas, it must recede to the carne extent
from the more northern of the slavehulding States; and
consequently the evil to northern States, from th e ex-,
pulim sion into them of free blacks, by abolition, gradual,
or mediate, would thereby he greatly mitigated, if
not entirely prevented. In the District of Columbia,
by the drain to the new States and Territoriee oldie
South and Seuthw - est, the slave* have been minced
from 6,119, in 1830, to 4,664 in 1840 and if, by the
, nsanexation, slavery receded in a double ratio, then it
would disappear altogether from the District in twelve
'yaws; and that question, which now occupies so much
of the time of Congress, and threatens so seriously the
harmony, if not the existence of the union, would be
put at rest by the reannexation of Texas. This re
anaeution, then, would only change the locality' of
the slaves, and (litho shiveholding States, without aug
menting their number. And is Texas to be lost to the
Union, not by the question of the existence of slavery,
but locality only' If slavery be considered by the states
of the North as an evil, why should they prefer that
its location should be continued in states on their bon.
der, rather than in the more distant portions of the 1..
ion. It is clear that, as slavery advanced in Texas, is
would recede from the states bordering on the free
I states of the North and West: and thus they would be
released from actuil contact with what they consider
an evil, and also from all influx from those states of a
large and constantly augmenting free black population.
As regards the slaves, the African being from a tropi
cal climate, and from the region of the burning sands
and sun, his comfort and condition would be greatly
imenwed, by a transfer from rorthern latitudes to the
genial and most salubrious climate of Texas. There
he would never sail- from that exposure to cold and -.
frost, whit& be reels somuch more severely than an 2.
y ''
A
other race; and there, also, from the great fertility of the 7,11
soil, and exuberance of.its products, his iiisiply of 'I/
food would be abundant. If a desire to intercom the "''3
condition and increase the comforts of the slaves re-, ..
ally animate the antidlavery party, they, would-be the
warmest advocates ofthe reannexation of T, xas. Nor
can it be disguised that, by the reannexatien, as the
number offree blacks augmented in the sliveholding „We°
States, they would be ditrused gradually through Tex- i
as into Mexico, and Central and Southern Ametica,
wherenine-tenths of their population are already of
the cohered races, and where, from their vast prepon
derance in number, they are nut a degraded caste, but
on a footing, not merely of legal, but what is far more
important, of earns! equality with the rest of the pop-
elation. Here, then, if Texas is reannexed through.
out the vast region and salubrious and delicious , ell-
mato of Mexico, and of Central and Southern Amer.
ica, a large and rapidly increasing portion of the Afri
~
can race will disappear from the limits of the Union,
The process will be gradual and r,ogressive, without a
shock, and without a convulsion; whereas, by the loss
of Texns, and the imprisonment oldie black population
of the Union within its present limits, slavery would sn
crease in nearly a II the a laveholdi ng stabss,and a change
in their condition would become impossible; or if it did
take place by sudden or gradual abolition, the result
would as certainly be the sudden or gradual introduction :.c...
