J E FFE ft S G NI AN REPUBLICAN. The New York Tribune of Monday contains an account of a most horrid murder committed in that city, on or about the 19th uli.. on lhe person of Samuel Adams, printer, by a Mr. Colt. The body was boxed up and' put on board a vessel to be sent to St. Louis via New vjrieans; uui me muraer was aiscoverea, ana the body recovered by the officers, before the sailing of the vessel. Colt was arrest and ta ken before the Mayor, where he denied any knowledge of the circumstances; but the testi mony against him leaves linle doubt of his guilt. r 1 i .1 i t i More Rumors. A correspondent of the Rochester Evening .Post adds the . nmKnl.ln -....-.- r.nmiliiiniirlh (In c:ivu ihuru are several hundred men, and some lifiy pices of cannon, with ammunition for a war equip ment, ready to be put on board the two war steamboats now at Kingston. So, loo. Gener al Scott is reported by the Cleveland Herald to have said that "the lakes must be armed imme diately." At the fortress building at Oswego, one hun dred and fifty additional workmen are employed, and two shillings a day allowed of extra wa ges. This is understood to be. by General Scott's orders. It is rumoured that Navy Island is guarded by the military, and that M'Grath's Lancers are sent round from Toronto to the frontier. Another Methodist College. At the conference of the Methodist Episco pal Church recently held at Urbann, Ohio, measures were adopted for the purchase of the While Sulphur Springs properly, at Delaware, in that Stale, as the site for the locaiion of a ) College, to be under the patronage and for the benefit of the North Ohio and the Ohio Con ferences jointly.

We unite with our correspondent in hoping that the trial of this person will be conducted with unprejudiced intelligence: Gentlemen: It is yet uncertain whether Mc Leod will be acquitted. There mav be contra- dictory evidence as to the material fact of his j being present at the taking and burning of the I Postens, at 8 o'clock, A. M. and thence to pro Caroline. Whatever may be the result of the j ceed to J. Edinger's; at Barionsville. Punctual testimony adduced, I hope the Court and Jury will remember the celebrated case of the Brit ish soldiers who, before the Revolution, fired upon the mob in Boston: they were indicted and tried for murder, but in consequeuce of the able defence of the- great patriot, John Adams, the Court and Jury acquitted them on the ground of their having been mere instruments, obliged to obey the orders of their commanders. This is an American case exactly in point. I hope there will be found a John Adams among tlie counsel of the prisoner, and h Judge equally learned, and a Jury equally just as those of Massachusetts on the occasion above mention-1 ed. The times were then disastrous, and the 1 minds of the people much more exasperated ' than they can be at the present moment, even ! on the frontiers of the British Provinces. j Philadelphia National Gazette.

Stroud tsp. September 1, 1841. to. A SrATttRAXi JBEiRIE&Y, Suited to our Constitutions, and competent to the cure of euery curable disease will be found in the INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS, OF THE 3foiSi AsKCs-iciua CoSIege of SIcallla. THESE extraordinary Pills are composed of plants which grow spontaneously on our own soil; and are therefore, better adapted to our constitu tions, than medicine concocted from foreign drugs, however well they may be compounded; and as THE INDIAN YEGETABL R PILLS are found ed upon the principle that the human body is in truth SUBJECT TO BUT ONE DISEASE, viz: corrupt humors, and that said medicine cures this disease on NATURAL PRINCIPLES by cleansing and purifying the body; it will be man ifest, that if tb i constitution be not entirely ex hausted a perseverance in their use. according to directions, is absolutely certain to drive disease j of every name from the body. "When we wish to restore a Swamp or Morass to fertility, we drain it of the superabundant wa ters; in like manner if we wish to restore the body to health, we must cleanse it of impurity. THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS Will be found one of the best, if not the very best medicine xn the world for carrying out this GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because they expel from the body all morbid and corrupt humors, the cause of disease in an easy and NATURAL MANNER; and while they every "y GIVE EASE AND PLEASURE, disease of every name is rapidly driven from the body. The above named Indian Vegetable Pills, have been three years befoie the American public; and we can now say withont fear of contradiction, that of all tlie various medicines which have heretofore been popular, not one has given such universal satisfaction, or obtained such a permanent hold upon the affections of the people. Not only do all who use it invariably experience relief, and re commend it in the strongest terms: but it has ef fected some of the most astonishing cures ever performed by medicine. Hitherto, very few of the numerous testimonials which have been received in favor of this extraor dinary medicine have been published, as the med icine obtained its present great celebrity more by its own intrinsic goodness than from extensive ad vertising. It has been deemed proper however to ofier the following opinions of the public press, together with a few extracts from letters of Agents, merely to sliow, that the fame of the Indian Vege table Pills, is not confined to any one section, but is rapidly extending itself to every part ofthe Union. From the Philadelphia Saturday Evening Post. THE INDIAN VEGETABLE. PILLS. . Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills are attaining great celebrity in New England as well as other parts-of the United States. The attempt of per sons to defraud the public by the sale of spurious articles, meets with general reprobation. Mr. Wright is an indefatigable business man, and shows an array of cures by the medicine which warrant confidence in the virtues of his Indian Vegetable Pills. From the Philadelphia Spirit of the.Timcc. THE INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS. People are pretty well satisfied by this time, that Calomel, and the other thousand and one min eral preparations of the shops, are better adapted, as a general rule, to kill rather than cure the pa tient; as a matter of course, vegctablo medicines are thorofore in great request. There are very many humbugs, however, among the latter, and we would advise all those who have the least re gard for their health, to try the INDIAN VEGE TABLE PILLS OF THE NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE OF HEALTH, sold at 109 Race fctrcct, Phladelphia ; as they are the preparation of one intimately acquainted with the healing art. From the Boston Daily 'flmes. INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS. Of all the public advertised medicines of the day, we know of none that we can more safely re commend for the "ills that flesh is heir to" than the Pills that arc sold at the depot of the North American Collcce of Health, No. 198 Tremont street, Uoston. Several instances we know of where they are used in families with the highest satisfaction; and no longer ago than yesterday, we hdatd an eminent Physician of the city recommend them in high terms. There used to be in the community, a great repugnance to the use of QUACK medicines, as they arc all indiscriminate ly termed, but it was mainly owing to tHo regular M. D.'s constantly denouncing them. They are however, becoming more liberal in this respect, and the consequence is that good vegetable medicines are now more extensively used than formerly. Extract of a letter from Peter Christ, Uniontown, Carrol County, Md., Nov. 17th, 1838. Dear Sir: About two months ago, T had busi ness in Baltimore, and called at your office, and bought a few boxes of the Indian Vegetable Pills; and upon trying them I found them to be far supe rior to Pills, or any other medicine I had ever used. I had been subject to a cough for five years past, and during the time have taken a vari ety of medicines without any relief, until I got the Indian Vegetable Pills, and by taking four doses, the cough, began to leavo me; and I now enjoy bet ter health than I have done lor years past After I found them to be a valuable medicine, I imme diately sent to Baltimore for a large supply. I have received so much benefit in using tiie IN DIAN VEGETABLE PILLS that I cantlot help but recommend them to every invalid I see, and think so well of the medicine tiiat I have sent two dozen boxes to my invalid friends; in the State of Indiana. Signed; PETER CHRIST. From G. C. Black, New York. Mr. Wm. Wright Tl0ar Sir you will please to forward as soon as possible, some of your Indian Vegetable Pills; as we are almost out of the arti cle, and they appear to be getting inj.o general use here. We have a great call for the medicine at present, and those that have used them, speak very high of them. One gentleman attributes his being cured of Dropsy to the use of tiicm; and another ! has been cured of Dyspepsia, solely by the use of your Indian Vegetable Pills, luid is willing you should publish his case if you think proper. G. C. BLACK, No. 1 Chatham Square, New York. Extract of a letter from Mr. A. Larrimore, Indiana. Doctor Wright DearSir Havingsome knowl edge of your most excellent compound INDIAN VEGETABLE PILLS, and not knowing how to get a fresh supply, my stock being nearly exhaust ed, and wishing to always have them in my family, I take this method to open a correspondence with you. The pills alluded to are well thought of here and very much wanted. I wish to make arrange ments with you for a constant supply, as I think a very great quantity could be sold in this section of the country. Extract of a letter from Samuel Griffith, Stewart town, York County, Pa. Mr. W. WrightDear Sir I am selling the In dian Vegetable Pills by the dollar's worth, and at that rate the stock of Pills, left by your travelling agent:, will soon be out. I am pleased to find they are such ready . sale. Those who have used them, speak in the highest terms of them. Many have already found great relief from their use, and when the cures are final - ly effected, I shall do you the justice to inform you of the same; Extract of a letter from Washington Cityi Mr. Wm. Wright Dear Sir You will have the kindness to forward me as soon as possible, too or three gross of the Indian Vegetable Pills. The sales have, for the last two months, increased rap idly; those who buy, generally remarking, "that they are the best pills they have ever used;" and my opinion is that they will in a short time super cede all others in this city. . ROBERT FARNHAM. Washington City, D. C. Extract of a letter from Lycoming .County ,"Ta. Mr. Wm Wright DearSir On being appoint ed Agents for the sale of the INDIAN VEGE TABLE PILLS in this place, we only took one gross on trial; but it would have been better if we had taken a half dozen gross; for on a fair trial they have far exceeded our most sanguine expecta tions. In fact so much so that we have been oblig ed to send to Mr. Zimmerman, at Lancaster, more than a hundred miles from here, for ten dozen; but these will last but a very short time, the way we are selling them since they have been fairly tested. In the first place, I gave some to our Physicians, to make trial of since which they have purchased a number of boxes, and highly approve of them. A few days ago, there was a lady sent 30 miles to get a box of the Pills, she at the time was very low, and unable to turn herself in bed; but in two days, my informant says she was "able to help herself. We could mention many other cases, but deem it unnecessary at this time; but would merely say; that as the season is fast approaching when there , will be a great demand for the Indian Vegetable Pills; and if we only could get a supply of the mad icino, we could establish other agents, which would be of immense advantage not only to the NORTH AMERICAN COLLEGE OF HEALTH; but to tho public generally. Please let us know your views on tho subject, and any directions relative; to the same, will be promptly attended to by Very respectfully, yoar friends, S. WINCHESTER $ SON, Jersey ShoTe.
