CORRESPONDENTS.
In reference to communications which may sp.
year in this paper, we have one or two remarks to
make. We will insert none without the name of l
the author being first made known to us, and
when inserted, must alWays Le taken as expres
sive of the views ithicr, and not the editor
of this paper, unless the views so expressed are ed
itorially remarked upon and approved.
The Democracy—The Tariff.
pThe Pennsylvania Democratic papek, we
are pleased to see, have, with few exceptions,.taken
very decided ground against the passage of the tar
iff bill, now under discussion in the Senate. This
is asyt Ehould be,''und we hole they will continue
their efforts, and never ceu.-e to "cry aloud - until the
bill berme the Senate is either defeated or so amend
ed as to be acceptable to the Democracy of Penn
sylvania. The Democracy or Pennsylvania on
this, as on all other great National questions, en•
tertain liberal views—they have never favored
special legislation for the Lenetit of one section of
the country at the expense of another, but they do
now, ever have, and we' believe, ever will contend
-that in framing the revenue laws of the country
such discriminations should be made in favor of
the products of our soil, and work shops, as wilt
affora ample, and if possible. equal protection to all
the great interests of the nation.
Demoerats, your opponents the Whigs, are now
full of hope—they believe that the Democracy of
the nation will now quarrel among themselves,
and of course be easily prostrated Will you.by an'
unwise course, contribute to such a result? Place
no faith in the promises or assertions of Whig po
liticians. Remember, that they voted for Mr.
Clay, for the Presidency, the ery man, who, to
conciliate the South and procure his election, ,
forced the "odious Compromise Bill" through Con
gress, reducing the Tariff of 1828, and unsettling
the Tariff policy of the country. They voted for Mr.
Clay, with a full knowledge that in letters to differ
ant southern gentlemen, he had declared that the
principles of the CompMmise bill ought to be ad,
hered. to. Bear this in mind, Democrats, and
when you hear political opponents assail your par
ty, and falsely assert that they deceived the people
in 1814, remind them of the arta and declarations
of M. Clay for whom they voted—remind them,
too, that their own organ, the Gazette; again and
again asserted that Mr. Clay had 'lll7'ot:blithe Tar
iff'," that he had "pia the knife to the throat of pro
tection, and asked for help to drive it home."
'TWELVE NDW FOSTIPICATIONS IN CANADA.—
The Montreal papers aecert that $12,000,000 are
to be expended in the Canadas during the next
three years, in erecting, new batteries and fortifica
tionion . the river St. Lawrence and ports on the
lake Ontario. At Toronto, Port Hope, and Bond
Head, sites hive already been selected. A strong
fort and two batteries are mostly completed at
'Kingston. The Military Commissioners sent out
from England, haverieen In session at Montreal
for near four months ; and completed their plans,
which are estimated to cost £3,000,000 sterling.
-A site has been purchased, at Longneil, just below
the city, for extensive works. Juries are now ap
praising lands for the use of the government at
several places. On the 3d, two ships arrived, hav
ing on board 150 pieces heavy ordinance. capable
of carrying balls from 32 to 72 pounds, which arc
intended for some of the new forts. It is also
stated by the Gazette, that Iron war steamers will

• PIZT-MAK , INp.--A London paper says that a nevi's
Machine for the making of pins has just been com
pleted. it is called "The Regina." strings of
wire enter it upon the- one side by thousands, and
almost immediately appear at the other, as pins in
the most pe l Ffect form; literally headed and pointed

TALL NAME XOll s WARRIOL—A correspon
dent of the St. Louis New Era, miting.from the
camp of the St. Louis Legion, opposite New Or
leans, relates the following ineident:--Many an
amusing scene has occurred in camp among the
recruits as well as the "drilled." Last night, one
of the best drilled officers, without thinking, es
pecially of the "order of the day," was walking ve
ry quietly over the rear line of the encampment,
when he was challenged very promptly, "'Who
comes dere?" Thinking the sentinel was very
abrupt, the officer exclaimed, "Thunder and Mars!"
when the sentinel, honestly supposing the officer
had given his own name, replied—" Advance! Dun
der and Mars, and give the countersign." The
officer sloped.
PosTAGE AND THE FOREIGN STEAMERS.—•-The
Philadelphia Inquirer states that the amount of
business letters now transmitted -to Europe annu
ally by the steamships plying between Boston - and
Lis erpool, is about 600,000, The sum paid by
the British Government to the Cunard line for
this mail service, is $45,000 per annum, and yet
the proceeds of postage are sufficient to reimburse
the Government for this large outlay. The rate
of postage is one shilling to Liverpool, and 42ic
to the continent of Europe.

lutions were introduced by F. W. Humus, Esq.,

FItOM TILE SEAT OF WAIt.
Interesting Items of Ladligener from Matamoros
—Posittcm of the -Imerican Army—Popularity of
Gen. 7'ayk.r
We Lase also received from our correspondent
files of the two papers published at Matamoras,
the "Republic of Rio Grande, - and the "Matamo
ras Reveille," from which sac yesterday presented
some inteiesting extracts, and now select the fol
lowing additional items. The Reveille says.—
Gcn. Taylor.—We are gratified as an American
citizen at the terms in which tLe conduct and
character of Gen. Taylor is spoken of by the cit
izens of Matamoras. His remaining in camp and
sharing all the hardships of the soldiers, during the
extremely disagreable weather which we have
lately had, affords, they say, a favorable contrast to
what would have been the conduct of a Mexican
general, under similar circumstances. The latter
would have occupied the best houses in town, even
if they had to force the inmates into the streets.
The sick Mexican So!diem—The commissioners
sent from this place, by the permission of Gen.
Taylor, to the commander of the Mexican forces.
to obtain money for the support of the sick and
wounded Mexican soldiers., returned yesterday
with $l2OO. The poor maimed wretches, when
they are turned out of the hospital; will get the
permission of the government to—beg.
Capture of two ~91exiraii Qpicers.—A portion of
Capt. M Collough . s company a few days since,
whilst on a scouting expeditLin near Reynoso,
captured two officers of the Mexican army. They
are teported to have had despatches from Canates
to the Mexican army near Monterey. The nature
of the communications as a matter of course Lase
not transpired.
Captain Walker's Commission.—Capt. Walker
of the Texas Rangersi has received his commission
as Captain in the U. S. Army, of Company C. of
the Regiment of Mounted Riflemen. He is in
structed, we are informed; to report by letter and
not in person, as his,services may be needed here,
to Maj. Burbridge, New Port, Ky., and to recruit
his company speedily, so as not to interfere with
more active duties, as possible.
From the "Republic of Rio Grande . ' vie also
select the following additional items:
Present position of the .dinerican -drniy around
Matamoras.—General Taylors headquarters and
staff, occupy the roost beautiful position imagina
ble. The Rio Grand after touching Mmarnoras
at its western extremity, runs round and forms a
beautiful curve, resembling the quarter of a circle,
and approaches within five hundred yardti of the
, principle square, the street running straight down
to the river, as they do at the western extreme,
where it approaches very near the building. In
this circle, about thirty paces from the bank, on
the Matamoros side, under a lone tree, stands the
tent of the Hero of many battles. . The tents of his
staff are all around at convenient distances, the
whole forming a pleasing combination at the ex
treme northwest of the encampment.
As you proceed dowq the river you come to the
home of Col. Twiggs, and adjoining it Bragg 's ar
tillery, and in succession the sth regithent of in
fantry, commanded by Major Staniford. To the
south of and in a parallel line with the river,
about two hundred yards distant, are the 3d and
4th regiments of infantry, commanded by Colonel
Garland. Pursuing the river bank down, you come
to the ferry which crosses the river a little above
Fort Brown, and is the principal thoroughfare be
tween the two divisions of the army. Below this
ferry, at the distance of four hundred yards, you
come to the flying artillery of Capt. Dungan, and
the Bth regiment of infantry, commanded by Gen.
Worth. We will now go over to Fort Brown, de
fended by three companies of artillery; under the
eonamaud of Capt. Lowd. Just above Fort Brown,
and immediately upon the bank of the river, is
posted the 7th regiment of infantry, commanded
by Capt. Miles. Then, still as you proceed up
the river, you come to the encampment of the
Louisiana and Alabama volunteers, commanded
by Gen. Smith; and on the border, the volunteers
of East and West Texas.
Mexican Feeling Relative to the War.—We dis
cover that the Mexicans are much elated at infOr
mation received that all the wealth and property
of the'Church has been tendered to the Government.
to support the war. We learn that Lieut. Col.
Antonio Tenoria, of the 12th regiment Mexican
infantry, has arrived at Lanales with four hundred
men and three pieces of cannon, from Tampico.
Col. Tenorie was formerly a citizen of this place,
and his family note live in the city. We also learn
that every Department in the Republic have made
a. voluntary tender of their quota of men and mo
ney for the effective prosecution of the war, and
from our own observation, we discover that the
Mexicans feel a greater anxiety about the receipt
of a mail than we do ourselves, wishing to ascer
tain how affairs stand between John Bull and Broth
er Johnathan, as if anticipating relief from a differ
ence between these worthies.
Faoo Sore.—Frog soup and stewed bullfrop,
are becoming so popular ,in Cincinnati, that-ir
rangements have been made for regularitipments
of frogs from the Wabash and Manmeeernmtry,
and the Cincinnati Atlas thinks there need be no
fears of "a short crop," as the pruduct in that re
gion is abundant and never-failing.
A Nsw COMMODITY has been introduced into
the Buffalo Market in the shape of kiln dried corn
meal, which bids fair to becOme an important ar
ticle in trade. It is manufactured at Toledo, where
is erected an apparatus capable of turning out,2,
400 bushels per day, and is put up in very nea
packages similar to flour.
MAINE U. S. SEN . /amt.—The Legislature of
Maine has at last succeeded in electing a Senator.
On the 9th inst., in the House Caucus, James W.
Bradbury, of Augusta, was nominated on the
ballot, by the following vote: Bradbury,49; J. An
demon, 29; W. B. S. Moor, 3; Hamlin, 2; Lowell,
1. Total, 84. In the Senate Caucus, Mr. Brad.
bury was nominated on the 6th ballot. Mr. Brad
bury is said to be an eloquent speaker and a firm
Democrat.
MonTer.rry.—The Coroner of Isfew York on
Sunday held seventeen inquests. He was obliged
to call in an Aldermen to help him.
BANNER PRESENTATION.—The ladies of Hunt
ingdon, Pa., presented to the memners of "Stand
ing Stone, - Division, Sons of Temperance, a beau
tiful Banner, the other day.
TUE HEAT.—The St. Louis Reporter of the 9th
inst., says::
For several days past, the thermometer has
ranged higher, we are informed, than it has done
at any corresponding period for a number of years.
On r.unday last, it rose to 102 degrees in the shade
at the drug store of Messrs, M'Cloud & Wheaton,
corner of Fourth and Chesnut streets. It has hung
in the same situation for three years, during which
period it never before rose beyond 98 degrees.—
(hi .Monday and Tuesday, it stood at 9i; or 97, and
)esterday at half past two o'clock in the evening,
it stood at 99.
Wax w•nn FORTI.I4 E.- In one of flit thaesets in
his city says the :Vac York Sun may be seen a
middle-aged woman; whoee history is full of inter

From the Iriuhingion Union, July 11
FINANCES OF THE UNITED STATES.
The
. lollowing interrstwig document was this day
transnatted to the &awe of tits Coiled States by
the Secretary of tie Tres /try:
TriII:WILT DIVA tITMENT,
July 13. 15•26.
St a:—llere‘‘ith is respectfully submitted an ari
se% er to so much of the resolution of the Senate of
the _9th of June last, as requires “is statement of
the revenue received from the customs for the three
first quarters of the present year, and the amount
expected from that source for the fourth quarter.
It will be perceived that. whilst in the first quar
ter of fiscal year terminating on the 30th of June,
1846, there was a loss of $ . 2, 011:785 1 1 0, as com
pared with the corresponding quarter of the pre
ceding year; and whilst the revenue received during
the two months of the succeeding quarter. to the
date of my annual report of December last, eery
I nearly corresponded with the amount received
I ring the same period of the same quarter of the
preceding year, the amount received during the
two last quarters of the fiscal year, terminating on
the 30th of June, 1846, exceeded that received du
; ring the two corresponding quarters of the prece
ding year $1,040,000.
That is, whilst during the first five months of the
fiscal year terminating on the 30th of June, 1840,
which had elapsed at the date of my annual re
port of December last, there was a diminution of
the revenue from customers, as compared with the
first five months of the preceding fiscal year, of
nearly two millions of dollars; yet, in the seven
last months of the fiscal year, terminating on the
30th of June; 1846, there was an increase of the
revenue, compared with the corresponding seven
months of the preceding year. of about $140,000;
thus raising the aggregate revenue of the year end
ing the 30 of June, 18-1.0, to $27,681,015 42.
Whereas, if the decrease of revenue for the last
seven mouths of that year had corresponded in the
same ratio with the first five months, it would have
reduced the revenue for the fiscal year terminating
on the 30th of June, 1816, to about $23,500,000,
instead of $24,500,000, as estimated by this de
partment in December last,
The receipts from customs for the fiscal year ter
minating on the 30th of June, 18.15, and for the
first three-quarters of the fiscal year ending on the
30th of June, 1840, are given from the official re
turns for moneys actually paid into the treasury.
The official returns for moneys actually paid into
the treasury for the last quarter of the fiscal year,
ending on the 30th ofJ une, 1847, are not quite ful
ly completed, but can vary only a very small sum
from the amount given in the estimate of $13,270,-
000.
It will be perceived that the receipts into the
treasury from customs for the fiscl year, ending on
the 30th ofJune, 1846, arc less than the receiptsfor
the fiscal year preceeding, by the sum of $846,107
28.
The remainder of the information called for, is
in the course of preparation, and will in a few days,
be communicated to the senate.
Most respectfully, your obedient servant,

COL. DVICEI—i am so mace pieeseu w i t h me
bold and independent stand taken by the editors of
the ".Dtmneratic Herald," Butler, Pti., that I would
thank you-td, publish the following extract. It is
high time for the DeMocracy of Pennsylvania to
speak out on this subject. During the contest of
1842, we prcifessed to be the Tariff.: party—we be
lieved that Mr. Polk was a better Tariff man than
Mr. Clay, and gave hill our waft and ardent sup-
port. Shall now s bmit to southern dictation?
No!—let uslfollow the noble example of the But
ler editor. I
. ..
The castigation he loves old - father Ritchie, is
well deserved. The organ teems daily with doc
trines that ate calculated to destroy the best inter
ests of ourr State. 1 SIMON SNYDER.
iFrom thelßuiler Democratic Herald:
i'he Taitir of 1810.
In the eleetion campaign of 1644 we contended
that the tariff of 1842 would not be altered, or, at
least, if it should be altered, the alterations would
be So slight that the great interests of the country
would not be, materiall effected thereby. We nev
eri for a moment drea ed thatthe whole act would
undergo a c.hange, an that change designed io ef
feet the very brunched of industry which require
Ithe fostering care of the Government. The bill
proposed by Mt. llcllay is of a ruinous and des
tructive character, ant, if once passed into a law,
will - be as I njurious o the people of this State as
the romproaitse bill pissed through the insfrunien
tally of Mr.i Clay. That bill received its existence
through a desire to conciliate the South, and Mc-
Kay's bill is likely td be the resat of an equally
unholy principle. The Pennsylvania Delegation
—Democrat and Whit —with but one exception,
voted against its rep al. To them ate due the
thanks of the people of thiS State for the noble and
patriotic steed they took in defence of American
industry. I
We have lOng borne with southern impudence and
arrogance, Und it is now time to stand up for our
rights--diseonnect outsets es from a set of men who
have been Waging aniunrightous war against our
interests arid the prosperity of the people, and to
make them feel the low dower of Pennsylvania. Do
they think that we wI permit the furnaces, forges,
Cotton factories, wollen factories, coal mines, and
the thousand other branches of industry in which
our people are engaged, to be sacrificed, in order
that southern aristocrats may lounge on the couch
of luxury erimsonedlby - the blood of slavery?—
They have4triflel with us until forbearance has
ceased to be a virtue., Pennsylvania is slow to an- I
ger, but she is mighty in wrath, and those who have
fouled wits the sleeping lion, will now, on his
awaking, be made to feel the consequences of their
own folly. ,I
We hove! read the siieeches of a number of those
southern representatives in Congress against the
tariff act of 1842, and-in all of them they took oc
casion
to taunt New York and Pennsylvania about
the spoils of office. They alledged that our prin
ciples were the spoils and theirs the patriotism.—
It is a lie ai black as ithe faces of their own bond-
men, and iti sprung from hearts as corrupt as their
own institutions. Do they think they can hide,
their detestable hypoeracy behind the screen afford
ed by such; a beat:tiers itr? When did Pennsylva
nia forsake principle for office? Never. She
asked fur her share, x lich was nothing but right,
and became she did so, must be denounced us a
beggar! And by whom? By those who, if they
had one half of Pennsylvania patriotism and sta
bility, would pay mote regard to the true interests
of the country. The South to talk about spoils!
Et en now,l, angry as we are. we can scarcely re
frain from laughing. 1 What has she? Were a list
made of southern in.in in office, it would equal in
length Adams' abolition petition. All the Minis
ters sent abroad are southern men. Counts from
the third degree up are of the same stamp, while
those considships to Which no fees are attached are
given to the North. IThis is southern patriotism:
is it? it is the exposition, by facts,. of southern
deceit. ,
It is doe to state, itat propositioeS were made
to the demticratic del i gation tram this State, that
lit they wofild vote for a repeal of the" tariffof 1842,
1 the duty on iron and coal should 'be increased
I But, like true Democrats, gas erred by no other
motive than the welfare of the people, they spurn
ed the bargain, and refused to vote for any altera
tion. This ja the kind of democracy we like. This
is the democracy of Pennsylvania, and most nobly
has it sustained itself in this contest against the
interests o> the people. How strongly does it con
trast with that southern aristocracy which feeds
on the blood of degraded blacks, and yet requires
for its support the strong arm of the Government !
"Old Ritchie," whd, by the by, should never have
been permitted to haye the control of a Govern
ment pape'r at the cite of Washington, exults more
over the passage of 4r. McKay's bill, than he did
over the victories gained by our army on the Rio
Grande. He and tholse whose mouth-piece he is,
have acted] in'relhtiori to the tariff, most shameful
ly, and deServe the eXecration of every ' ‘mod Penn
sylvania Democrat.--Ritchie net or could see be
yond the old Dominion and her interests, and to
have brouilit him beyOnd her limits to preach prin.
ciples.advntageous tb a people to whose action he
now owes his present Position, was as fool-hardy as
it was contemptible. I He is old and rickety, and
should hate been deli. at Richmond. lie tray do
well enough to lead) the people of Virginia, but
when he attempts to lead the people of the Union,
he travels out of his element. In rejoicing on the
passage ofiMcKay's bill, he uses the tollowing lan
guage with regard to Pennsylvania:
"Pennsylvania, whb shed her blood in the war
of '7O and 1812, and who was ever toady to do
her duty on all great ;occasions, was nearly unani
mous against this great measure, so important to
the interests of the country."
Yes, Pennsylvanialhas done her duty on all oc
casions, and she will do her duty still; but it will
be to teach such inert as Ritchie, that they can no
longer rely upon the; strong arm of the Old Key
stone. She will be faithless to those who have
been faithless to.her.!
The Sciuthern papers are very full of anecdote
concerning the state of things at the seat of war.
Not the Worst of these trifles is the following. It
is peculialy ludicrous:
Among the volunteers was a gentleman's son"
—a full private, who, heartily sick of rainy wea
ther, mud and no shelter, first went to his captain
with his Complaints, but meeting with no particu
lar sympathy, resolved to have a talk with Gener
al Taylor himself. Arrived at the commanders
quarter's,the General was pointed out to him, but
he was rather incredidous. "That old fellow Gen
eral Taylor? N o nsense!" Satisfied, bow ever,
that sucWwas even the case, he marched up, and
rather patronizingly ripened hie business.
"General Taylor I believe."
"Yes, sir.'' •
"Well,' General, I'm devlish glad to tee you—
am, indeed!'' Ile General returned the civility.
"General, you'll excuse me, but since I ye been
here I've been doing all I could for you—have, in
deed; butthe fact is, the accommodations are very
bad—are indeed, mud, sir! bleeged to lie down in it,
actually; bud the fact is, General, I'm a gentleman's
son, and not used to its''
The General, no doubt deeply impressed with
the fact df having a gentleman's son in his army,
expressed his regret that such annoyances should
ever exist, under any .circumstances, in a civilized
army.
"Well-4-but; General, what am I to do?"
"Why,Jreally, I don't know, unless you take my
place."
that's , civil—'tis indeed. Of course
don't mean to turn you, out, but a few hours sleep
a cot, or a bunk, or anything—would be so refresh
ing! Your place—where is it, General?"
"Oh! just drop down, anywhere about here—any
place abort the camp will answer!"
The look which the ', ,, gentlemait's son" gave' the
General was rather peCuliar.
"Well, no wonder they call you "Rough and
Ready!" said he; and j a.rnid the smiles of all but
"Rough and Ready" himself the "gentleman's son"
returned to take ,his chance of the weather.

A P AIR OF PARODIF.SI.
nr ON} of-ras "B'nors."
The following frantic attempt at stUltifying
"Alice Gray" and "She•wore a wreath ofl Roses,"
were handed us by a very desperate and ihaggard
individual in a loose brown surtout with the c l osn limp
tion, who stated that he had been kept awake for
a fortnight by a sleepless young lady, in an oppo
site attic, who played on the piano and sting the
following songs for twenty-three hours out of each
blessed day. He stated that she read the Symbol
and it would probably be the death of her. With
these incoherent words he dashed down the stair
case and was gone.
ALICE GRAY. I
She isn't what I painted her—
A thing all hearts to win—
I
saw no beauty when I found
She had'nt got the "tin."
I loved her upwards of a week—
But found it would'nt pay; I
So I "took my hat and went ashore"l
And out Miss Alice Gray.
Her dark brown hair was all a sham—
Her forehead "Jones' white," !
One eye an artificial one,
The other far from bright. I
Oh, she may twine her purchased
She musn't look this way—
My heart is far from breaking
For the love of Alice Gray.
I've sunk a very pretty sum
In rides and sweetmeats past;
And havn't now the first red cent—
She drained me of the last;
How green I was, in earnest gave,
I certainly must say;
I shall be cut by all the "Bloys"
For courting Alice Gray.
HE WORE A FLASHY WAISTCpAT.
He wore a flashy waistcoat, on the night when
first we met,
With a famous pair of whiskers and imperial of
jet;
His air had all the haughtineis, his voice the man
ly tone
Of a gentleman with eighty thousand dollars of his
own.
I saw him but a moment, yet methinks I see him
now,
With a very flashy waistcoat and a beater on his
brow.
And once again I saw that brow—no neat "Lgay"
was there, !
But a "shocking bad 'tin" was his hat, and matted
was his hair.
He wore a "brick" within that hat—the change
was alt complete—
Anif he was flanked by constables who marched
him up the street.
I saw him but a moment, yet methinks (I see him
now,
Charged by those worthy officers for kicking up a
row.

'MEYER DESPAIR—You can be cured!
'LAMBEILTSVILLE, (N. J.) June 10, 1846
Dr D. JAYNE, No. 8 south Third street, Philadel
phia. 7 -Dear Sir—l have this day had an interview
with the gentleman of whom I made mention to you
as haiting taken your Expectorant with such decided
effect. He is a respectable farmer, living a few miles
from here. I was so ranch interested in a detailed
account he gave me of his cough and cure; that .I
embrace the first liesure moment to communicate it
to you, and if the cure is as radical as it, appears to
be, it is the most remarkable one .I have ever kniawia.
For. 32 years (after having the measles) he has been
suffering with a cough of the most distressing kind,
getting worse as he advanced in years; '(he is now 55.)
Frequent terms of coughing arid difficulty of breath
ing, ; lasting from an hour to •an hour and a flair,
would come upon him, with such severity as to ex
haust him, with strangling until his eyes became
biaortshot. He had despaired -of being cured, hav
ing tried physicians and a thousand things without
relief. For nine weeks immediately previous to his
taking the Expectorant, he had not been able to 'go
to his barn, although there was the most urgent ne-'
cessity for him to do an.
During the nine weeks he was under the care of
an eminent Physician, and he finally got just able to
go out and came to my store, and, hearing his cough,
I recommended to him your Expectorant. lie first
said be had tried so many things that he had no con
fidence in any thing; but I induced him to take a bot
tle Sy telling him of persons of my acquaintance who
had been decideply benc....,cd by it. This was on
Theeday; that night he Laois of it, and says that it was
the Arst comfortable night's sleep he had enjoyed
for years.. On the Thursday following he went to
work, and has continued ro make a full hand on his
farmiever since, (now nearly two nionths.) He told
the to-day that for .the last week:he had cut and split
a hundred rails, or made 10 panel's of fence per day;
has been in the water to *ash his sheep, and other
wise', exposed, Without the least symptom of a return
of his cough, it having entirely disappeared, and,
etrancest of all, one third of a bottle has produced
the effect. He seems so thankful and overjoyed that
he "'wants to talk all day about it," and says that if'
he could not procure another bottle, he would refuse
$lOO for the remainder of the bottle he has left.,
Your Caiminitive Saloom I have used or recom
mended to others for the last ten year, with the
most salutary effect. Respectfully yours
