ReeeJIeelleae of Mxle.
Gen. Waddy Thompson in hi 'Recollection
ol Mexico,' says i
From all the informition which ' I he re
ceivedand I hive been inquisitive upon the
subject I am well satisfied that there ia not on
this Continent any country of Iheeamo extent aa
little deairable aa Oregon, nor any In the world
which coinbinea aa many advantagee aa Califor
nia. With the exception ol the valley of the
Willamette, there ia acarcely any portion of
Oregon which ia inhabitable except for that
, moat worthlcea of alt, a hunting population
and the valley of WalTamelte ia of very aipall
extent. In the South the only port ia at the
Columbia river, and that ia no port at all, aa
the loaa of Iba Peacock, and othera of our ves
sels, haa proven. I'd aay nothing of other har
bora in California, that of San Francisco ia ca
pacious enough for the naviee of the world, and
ita ahores are covered with enough timber (a
apeciea of the live oak) to build thoeo navies.
If man were to aak of God a climata, he would
ak just auch an one aa that of California, if he
had ever been there. There ia no portion ol
our Western country which prodnccf all the
grains aa well ; I l.avt been told by more than
one person on whom I entirely relied, that they
had known whole field to produce a quanti
ty ao incredible that I will not state it The
whole face of the country ia covered with the
finest oats growing wild; eugar, rice and cot
ton find their own congenial climate. Besides
all there, the richest mines of gold and silver
have been discovered there, and the pearl fishe
ries have always been aourcea of the largest
profits; and more than these, there are the
mat keta of India and China with nothing in
tervening but the calm and atormlcss Pacific
Ocean. '
The distance from the head of navigation on
the Arkansas and Red Rivera to a navigable
point of the waters of the Gulf of California U
not more than five or six hundred miles ; let
that distance be overcome by a Railroad, and
what a vista ia opened to the prosperity and
power of our country. I have no doubt that
the time will come when New-Orleana will
be the greatest city in the world. That period
would be incalculably hastened by the mea
sures which 1 have indicated, which would
throw into her lap the vast commerce of China
and India. Great Britain, with that wise and
far-aeeing policy for which she ia more remark
able than any other Government, haa already
the practical posecsaion of most of the porta of
the Pacific Ocean New-Zealand and the
Stndwhich Islands, and very soon the Society
Islands also. We have a commerce in that
ocean of more than fitly millione ol dollars, and
not a single place of refuge for our ahipa.
I will not say what ia our policy in regard to
California. Perbapa it ia that it remain in the
handa of a weak power like Mexico, and that
all the maritime powera may have the adau
tage of ita porta. But one thing 1 will aay, that
it will be worth war of twenty years to pre
vent England acquiring it which I have the beat
reasons Tor believing ahe deairea to do, ond just
aa good reasons for believing that ahe will not
do if it costs a war with thii country. It is.
perhaps, too remote from ua to become a mem
ber of the Union. Itiayet doubtful whether
the increase of our territory will have a federal
or a centralizing tendency. If latter, we have
too much territory; and 1 am by no means aure
that another sister Republic there, with the
same language, liberty and laws, will not, upon
the whole, be the beat for us. . If united in one
Ooverntnent, the extremities may be a remote
aa not to receive a proper heat from the cen
tre so at least, thought Mr Jefferson, who wa
inspired on political questions if mortal man ever
waa. I am not one of those who have a rabid
craving for more territory ; on the contrary, 1
believe that we have enough. I know of no
great people who have been crowded into a
small apace the Egyptians, the Romans, the
Greeks, and another people who kave eiercia
ed a greater influence upon man and hu des
tiny than all others, the Jewa ; and, in our own
time, the English. I want no more territory,
lor we nave already too much, If I were to
make an exception to thia remark, it would be
H acquire California. But I should grieve to
ace that country pass into the bauds of England
or any other of the great powera.
Whenever the foreigners in California make
the movement ol separation, it must succeed.
The department of Senora, not half the distance
from Mexico, haa been in a state of revolt for
the last four years, and the Government baa
been unable to suppress it. The civil war there
has been marked by acta of horrible atrocity,
which are almost without precedent in any
country. It ia true that they do not eat the
flesh of their enemies, but they leave tbem
hangingon the Ireea to feast the bird of prey
I Here ia scarcely a road in the whole depart
ment where auch spectacles are not daily ex
hibited.
r
I ua brantASvaj, Agriculture ad Poli
tics. Adverting to agriculture, General T.
says; 'The plough in universal use is that used
two thousand years ago neither more nor lesa
ihan a wooden wedge, without particle of won
attached to it. The boe ia a wooden staff, with
an iron spike in the end. What ia atill more
remarkable, the only animal used in ploughing
a the ox ; a planter, with twenty thousand
horaea and mulea (by no means an unusual
number,) will only use his oxes In the plough
If you aak why this is, the only answer 1 can
give is, that the (Spaniard never cbangea bia
habits, nor anything else but bis government.
All the passion far change that exists in other
men, with him is concentrated ia political
naagea.'

proof in my own family, of the wonderful properties
of your Depnrstive Syrup of Sarsapsrilta, I moat
conscientiously recommend it lo the afflicted. We
had Ihe misfortune to lose two of our children, by
the breaking nut of uleeroua anrea that covered the
face, head and neck, although we had some of Ihe
most scientific physician to attend th m and had
tried all the known remedies, including Swaim's
Panacea, without avail. Another of my children
waa aitacked in the aame manner, her face and
nerk waa completely covered; the discharge waa so
offensive, and the disease at such a height, that we
despaired of ber life. Seeing the wonderful effects
of your Drpurjtive Syrup ol SarsaparilU, we wete
induced kt make trial of it. as Ihe IhsI resort ; il
acted like a charm; the uers commenced healing
Immediately, a bw bottles entirely restored her to

of Sarsapsrilta, of which I obtained several bottles,
the use of which drove the disease entirtly nut of

FOR twenty year I waa severely afflicted wills
Tittir on Ihs Face and Head : tbe dieeasw
eommeneed when I waa seventeen yearn old, and
continued until the Fall of 1836, varying in vio
lence, but without ever d iaappearirtg. During most
of lha time, great part of my fsee was covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with violent itch'
ing ; my head swelled st times until it felt as if it
would burst the swelling wsa so great, that I could
scarcely get my hat on. During the long period
that I waa afflicted wiih the disease, I used a great
many a plications, (among them several celebrated
preparations) , well ss taking inward remedies,
including a number of bottles of Swaim'i Panacea,
Extract of Sartnparilla, etc, In, fact, it would be
impossible lo enumerate all Ihe medicines I used.
I wss slsin uader Ihe care ef two of the most dis
tinguished phyiicians of this city, but without re
ceiving sauch hene6l, and I despaired of ever being;
cured, la the fsll of 1836, the disease at Ihe time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rote
Ointment, (prepared by Vsughan ot Davis.) In
a few snplicationa ths violent itching ceased, tbe
swelling abated, the eruption began to disappear,
and before I had used a jar ihe disease waa entirely
cured. It has now been nearly a year and a half
since, and there is not s vestige of Ihe disease re
maining, eicepl ihe scars from the deep pita formed
by the disease. It is impossible for me to describe
in a certificate the severity of the disease and my
suffering, but I will be pleased to give a fuller ac
connt to any person wanting further satiafaetion,
who will call on me. At the lime I commenced
using the Rose Ointment I would have given hun
dreds ef doMais to be rid of the disease. Since u
sing it, I have recommended it to several persona,
(among Ihem my mother, who had ihe disease bad
ly on her arm,) who were all cured bv it.

'PHIS is to certify that I waa severely afflicted
t with Tetter in the handa and feet for upwards
of forty yeara ; the disesse waa attended generally
with violent itching and swelling. I spplied to
number of phvsicins, and used a great many appli
cations without effecting a core. About a year
since, I applied tba Rose Ointment, which entirely
stopped the itching, and a few applications immedi
ately cured Ihe disease, which there has been no
return of, slthoiigfi I had never been rid of it at
any time for forty years. RICHARD SAVAtiE,
