Tif E TRUE WAY TO RECOVER ILEALTIL ,1::.7e An individual only wishes to know the right way to pursue it: arid there are none, were it surely made known hew Life might be prolonged and lienlth recovered. who would not 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 is so foolish as not t I enjoy till the health that his body is capable oft Who is there that would not live when his experience can so much benefit himself and family? It is a melinicholv tact that a very large proportio n of the most useful members of society dig between the ages of thirty and forty. Hose many widows and helpless orphans have been the consequence of mandkind uot having in their own power the RIC7I lIS of restoring health when lust. Now all these dangers and difficulties can be preven ted and the long and certain sickness, and by assisting nature an the outset, with a good dose of Brandreth's Pills. This is a fact, well understood to bean 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 acuredve influence upon. Thus, by their pow er in resisting putrefaction, they cure measles, small pox, worms and all contageous 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 Brandreth Pills. The Brandreth Pills are purely vegetable, and so innocent that the infant of a month old may use them, if medicine is required, not only with safety bin with a certainty of receiving all the benefit medicine is cepa- ble ()imparting. Fomales may use them in all the crit ca.! periods of their lives. The Brandreth Pills will insure their health, arid produce regularity in all the functions of life. The same may be said of Bra rtdrelli . s external remedy, 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 slow test of gennine Brandreth P:lls.—Exam inc the box of Pills. Then look at the certificate of agency, whose engraved date must be within the year, which es ery authorised agent mustpoasess; if the three labels on tho box agree with the three labels on the cer tificate, the Pills are true—if not, they are false.

[coerts urn.] • The first article of the next treaty declares: "There shall be reciproent liberty of commerce and navigation, between and amongst the citizens of the republic Of Texas, and the subjects of her Britannic Majesty."-- The third article authorizes British merchants to ear ly on their business in Texas, and British vessels of . seer to enter freely all her ports. Next corneae treaty between Great Britain and Testes, whiceigtezes to Eng, land the right of search as fully and effectually. and in terms- more obnoxious, thah the celebrated quintu ple treaty to which it refers, and adopts. It grave to vessels of war cf both parties, the tight of searching merchant vessels by either party, and expressly p r o.. vides fur the exercise of this right, 'IX THE GIMP' or MEXICO." , It prosides also for the exe r cise of this right, whenever either of theparties shall have reason . . tasuspect that the vessel is or has been engaged in the slaw trade, or has been fitted ok 1 for the said tmdet and all thie is to be done, whether the vessel carries the flag of Texas or not. .Ver 58V ing us fro the cone sequence of the quintuple treaty, and the right m er search which it granted, by inducing France to refuse to rgt- ify that treaty, General Cass, our minister there, has , received and deserved the thanks of the whole Amer ican people. He demonstrated that such right of search would be fatal to the-free navigation of the ocean, and subject the commerce of the world to the . supervision of British cruisers. But hero is a treate, containing all the obnoxious previeien a of the quintu ple trimly, in regard to the right of search, and °there that are still more dangerous. Tint treaty was made, '. -, too, with nations differing in language, and in many. other respects, from our own; and therefore more easily distinguieha'ile than the people or vessels of Texas. Al the flag is not to designete the national character of the ' .' vecel, how can these vessels t of Texas, that are thus to be searched on suspicion, be distiuguishable; and :- what is to prevent American vessels and American crews from being carried for condemnation within the ports of England? Recollect, also, that under this •e, treaty, the cruisers of England and, indeed, the whole r' s British navy, or any party of it, maybe brought into the - '/, ,the Gulf of Mexico, and stutioned in the narrow ,pass commanding the wholeoutiet of the gu;ph, and all ; tree commerce to and from the litiissiippj. T ~e e the' " right of search, under wheteve r name or form especie ally within our own seas, and upon our own coasts, . s we never have assented, and never can assent; but' here, under pretext of searching'the vessels of Texas, the navy of England, orany paw of it, may occupy the ' only outlet of the Gulf of :Mexico, and all our reeseli . ' , entering thegulf or returning from the month of that .: Mississippi, moat pass by under the seeervieimtuf Pd.:. fish cruisers, subject to seizure and-donmtine, on sus-- picion-of being Texas vessels., concerned in the 'levee' trade. The British navy mayflies also be quarterett on the southern coast of' c e lorida;und along the cairn.- of Cuba and Mexicn. to seize upon Cube whenever art e .. opportunity presents. Such is the influence whiell it is tints proved, by official documents, Great Britain has alrendy obtained in Texas. It ia here proved that Great Britain 'coffered her mediation," to Taxes to ob tain peace with Mexico, and that she has a:rearly indnil ced Texas to asseme conditicnally, OTIC mille-es pounds sterling of the debt which Mexico owes in England. with all the accumulating interest from the Ist of !en ' uary, 1835. A nation so feeble as Texas, whir!, should owe so hem), a debt in England, with the pay. ; I mente secured by treaty,wonld be as eotr e lett- 'e ts 'thin Bt eisli influence as though already a British colecy,e s . ,pecially when we consider the ot her must extraordinary ... privileges which she has already granted to England: including the right of search. In the officiai leeches Lion of June 15, 1843, President Houston gar: "Art ...,. official communicates:: has been received at thedeparte MPnt of State, from her Britannic Majesty's charged' alleles near this government, founded upon a despatch he had received from her :Majesty's charge d'affaires la: . Mexico, announcing to this government the fact that; ` , the President of Mexico would forthwith order a cessee-f: then of hostilities on his part; therefore, I, Sam. HouterA ton, President of the Republic of Texas, do hereby dm ' Clare and proclaim that an armistice is established, toTh continue (luring the pendency of negotiations between the two countries, and until due notice of an intention to resume hostilities (should such an interainn beretsfe .' ter be entertained by eithe r party) shall have been formally announced through her Britannic Make • charge d'affaires at the resperriee governments." Is' not Texas already dependent upon England, when England obtains for her an armistiee, and the Presi e dent of Texas announces that this will continue until 1 its terminate'', be announced by England 1 In the message td' the. President of T cites of the 12th of December, 1843, be speaker of the "generous 1. anti friendly disposition, and artive and friendly offs_ ces of England.' He speaks, also, of " injuries and indignities inflicted" by tnie government upon 'fegar e o • and declares "that reparation hue been demanded." Such is the wondeifel advance in Texas of the Mikes '. ence of England. tie': she has succeeded in having it nmieunced in an executive MOSSaIM to the people of Texas that England is their friend, and that liNs, - - 4 - are th ei r enemies. Ifall this had been predicted threes rears since, it ‘vou!d hate been deemed incredible;. sod s od if Texas is not rel./flexed. she is certain. within S,.e few years more. to become first a commercial depem deuce. and then a colony, in feet, if not in name, of England. \Viten we regard the consequences which . I have already follewed the mere apprehension of the. refusal of reannexation, what viii be the resell in - Texas when reanne.xation is positively and former ties joeteci/ tVlivn this is done, and Texas is repulsed:, with contempt 4 nr inclitTt rence, when her people are told, The flag of the tie ion shall never wave over you. ... go!--go where youmay. lie Eneland, if you please,-.... who can doubt the tesult7 To doubt i. 4 wilful blind-'. mess; amid Whili-I we will have lest 4 in0..1 important terrlforv, and an indispensable portion of the vullery ~. of the %Vete, England will have gained 4 dependency first, and then a colony; and we shell awake teem our clambers when, amid British rejeicings and the sound of British cannon, the flog of England shell wave ..- upon th e enact and throughout the limits of Texar, and a monarchy rises up en our rein continent and on . our awn borders, upon the grave ef a republic.
