ma. POINIETT'S LETTEZIL
STATESBURG, (S. C.) Dee. If 2, 1847.
MY DEAR SIR : In compliance with
your request cud in conformity with my
promise, I have determined to give you
very briefly my views on the all engross
ing topic of the day. I was detained Inter
than I expected to be in Columbia, and
have only this moment seen the Pesi- '
dent's Message and the Report of the I
Secretary of War, and am surprised to
percieve that they persist in recommen
ding a course of policy which will lead
to still further useless expenditure of
blood and treasure, and will finally have
to be abandcined. With the reasoning
on the subject of 'the acquisition of ter
ritory I have nothing to do, especially
as the President seems to think Congress
pledged to these conquests. I can only
express my regret and my firm convic
tion that these territorial acquisitions
will not add to our strength or prosperi-
ty.
The recommendation that most se
riously alarms me is contained in the
paragraph where the President says
there can be no doubt that there exists
a peace party in Mexico, and that it may
become expedient for our commanding
generals to give assurances of protection
to such a party ; in short, to create a par
ty, make peace with it, and gauranty it
in the posession of power. Nothing can
be more chimerical—nothing could be
more insecure than the execution of
such a project,' were it practicable.—
Such a party would bear no proportion
to the nation, and the members of it
would require to be protected from pub
lic indignation and vengeance for long
years to come, by a force not less formid
able than that now in the country, with
out the chance of any indemnity, or the
power of levying contributions of any
sort.
If the peace government should agree
to pay and subsist their protectors, they
must, from the nature of things, ail to
do either. Pray, save us the disgrace
of atteripting such an intervention. The
attempt might lead to an intervention of a
different sort, that would possibly prove
more successful. The President is ap
prehensive of foreign interference, first
in California, and next in the establish
ment
of a monarchy in Mexico. There is
not the slightest risk of the former, and
if the Mexican people are left to them
selves, no chance of the latter. They
were so entirely republican in 1822 that
I did not hesitate confidently to foretell
the downfall of Iturhide. They are
much more so now ; and no scheme of
that sort could have even momentary
success, unless the leaders considered it
as the only chance of opposing us.—
There exists a strong monarchical party, 1
strong in wealth and station; the priests
the former aristocracy, and the adherents
of Spain. We may drive the numbers
under their banners. Still the President
is wrong : our armed intervention might
bring on us a powerful foreign foe, but
could not prevent the evil ; whereas, if
we hold back, my life for it, a monachy
would not exist in Mexico three years,
with fifty thousand foreign bayonets to
sustain it. The people are republican.
The President says lie is convinced
that the best means of bringing the war
to an honorable close will be to prosecute
it with increased energy and power in
the vital parts of the enemy's country.
Now, I am persuaded that so long as we
continue to prosecute the war in the in
terior of Mexico, we shall have no peace
with the nation, and all attempts to make
peace with a action will place us in a
worse position than open war. I speak
with the authority of a perfect knowl
edge of the nature of the country and
the character of the people.
I was glad to find that the Secretary
rejects the plan of overunning the whole
country, as too expensive; but I was
surprised to percieve that he only esti
mates the number of men it would re
quire to do this, or to maintain our pre
sent conquests, at seventy thousand men ,
for the first, and some thirty-five or forty
thousand for the second. He says noth
ing
of the annual consumption of men ,
during this prolonged contest. During
the most favorable period of the penin
sular war, carried on in n country friend
ly to them, the British forces lost an
nually sixteen per cent, one-fourth of
whom died of wounds and casualties.—
In Mexico we snould lose at least twen
ty per cent, of volunteers. I remark
ed in the isthmus between the Caspian
and Black seas that the Russian forces
required to be recruited entirely in three
years ; that is to say, they required a
renewal of one third every year.
The conquest of that country by Rus
sia affords us lessons we ought to profit
by. The Russian forces overrun the
Caucasian country, in 1796, and received
the submission of the people. They
conquered a peace. Well, in 1807 I
passed through the heart of the country,
which had been garrisoned with twenty
thousand men for eleven years at a cost
of between sixty and seventy thousand
men, or six or seven thousand men a
year. At that time it was necessary to
wait the departure of a train from post to'
post, as it was unsafe to move with less
than two pieces of artillery and a full
company of infantry. This state of
things continued until 1840, when the
Caucasians organized a powerful opposi
lion to their conquerers, and up to the
present day have contended against
them with advantage. The Caucasus

iTS WORKS PRAISE IT.
Burns, Scalds and all kinds of Inflamed
sores cured.
TOUSEY'S UNIVERSAL OINT
MENT,_ is the most complete
Burn Antidote ever known. It instant
ly (and as if by Magic,) stops pains of

er discovered. All who use, recom
mend it. None can tell how soon
some of the family will need it.
nr Observe each box of the genuine
Ointment has the name of S. TOUSEY
written on the outside label. To imitate
this is forgery.
Boatmen, Livery men, Farmers, and
all who use horses, will find this Oint
ment the very best thing they can use

best Remedies that can be applied. All

had for a,number of years, a sore leg

by one of the visiting physicians, (who
knew its first virtues,) and two boxes
produced more benefit than the patient

bruise. All persons should try it.
Scald Head Cured.—Sores or cases of
scald head have been cured by Tousey's
Ointment. Try it—it seldom fails.
Salt Rheum Cured.—Of all the rem

OVER 200,000 PERSONS
of the following Complaints:

Liver Complaint, Erysipelas, Deafness, Itchings of
the Skin, Colds, Gout, Gravel, Nervous Com
plaints, and a variety of other diseases arising from
impurities of the brood, and obstructions in the or
gans of digestion.
Experience has proved that nearly every disease
originates from Impurities of the Blood or Derange
ments of the Digestive Organs; and to secure
Health, we must remove those Impurities and re
store the blood to its natural state. Therefore,
when the slightest derangement of the system is
indicated by Costiveness, or any other sign, it ad
monishes us that superfluities are gathering in the
System, which shou.d be immediately removed by
an effectual purging. This fact, as stated, is uni
versally known; but people have such an aversion
to medicine, that, unless the case urgent, they pre
ferred the disease to the cure, generally. Since the
invention, however, of
• Clickener's Vegetable Purgative Pills,
this objection does not exist, as they are completely
enveloped with a coaling of pure white sugar
(as distinct from the internal ingredients as a nut
shell from the kernel) have no taste of medicine,
and aro as easily • swallowed as bits of candy.—
Moreover they neither neauseate or gripe in the
slightest degree. They operate equally on all the
diseased parts of the system, instead of confining
themselves to, and racking any particular region.
Thus, fur example, if the Liver be affected, one in
gredient will operate on that particular organ, and,
by cleansing it of that Excess of Bile it is con
stantly discharging into the stomach, restore it to
Us natural state. Another will operate on tho
Blood, and remove these impurities which have al
ready entered into its circulation; while a third
will etlectually expel fr. In the system whatever im
purities may have been discharged into the stom
ach ; and hence they
Strike at the Root of Disease,

Perspiration, obviate Flatulency, Headache, &c.,
separate all foreign and obnoxious particles from
the chyle, secure a free and healthy action to the
lleart, Lungs, and Liver, and thereby restore
health even when all other means have failed.
The entire truth of the above can ho ascertained
by the trial of a single box ; and their virtues are
so positive and certain in restoring Health that, the
proprietor binds himself to return the money paid
for them in all cases where they do not give uni
versal satisfaction.

ASTONISHING CURES.
WM.BOND, the celebrated Boston cracker baker,
99 Nassau street, Brooklyn, states that his wife has
been afflicted with Asthma for 30 years, and could
not find permanent relief from the best medical ad
vice which New York and Brooklyn could produce,
was induced to try this great remedy. She is now
nearly well. His daughter, who was suffering
from the same disease, tried it, and was also cured
by it. Mrs. Bond is now so well that she is ab!e
to rise from her bed early in the morning a. d at
tend to her usual duties through the day without
any annoyance from her distressing malady.
lisxur JACKSON, 13th street, near the Catholic
Cemetry, came to the store for the purpose of ob
taining a bottle of the Olosoanian, having been
Afflicted with the Asthma for more than 30 years,
and was so exhausted on hts arrival that he could
not speak. He purchased a bottle and rode home.
Four days afterward he walked from his residence
to the office without fatigue, a distance of over two
miles, to tell of the wonderful relief which ho had

DENNIS KELLY, 26 Water street, was also re

very much reduced when he commenced taking it
--having been under the care of his physician du

return to his daily work. He was entirely relieved.

lives or health of the afflicted, and we
sincerely pledge ourselves to make no
assertions as to the virtues of this med

We ask the attention of the candid to
a few considerations.
Nature in every part of her works,
has left indelible marks of adaptation
and design.
The constitution of the animals and
vegetables of the torid zone, is such that
they could not endure the cold of the
frigid zone, and vice versa. In regard to
disease and its cure, the adaptation of
remedies is not less striking.
The Moss of Iceland and the Pint
and Wild Cherry are justly celebrated
for the cure of all diseases of the Lungs
and Liver, which are so fearfully preva
lent in all Northern latitudes. From a
combination of Chemical Extracts pro
cured from this and those 'Trees'
DR. WISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY
is chiefly formed.

SPIIINOF;ELD:*., May 14,1845,
Maar& Sanford & Pork :—I take this oppor
tunity of informing you of a most temarkablo
cure performed upon me by the use of Dr. Wis
tar's Balsam of Wild Cherry.
In the year 1840 I was taken with an infirma•
tiun of the bowels, which I labored under for nix
weeks, when I gradually recovered. In the fall of
1841, I was attacked with a severe cold, which
seated itself upon my lungs, and for the apace of
three years I was confined to my bed, I tried all
kinds of medicines, and evitry variety of medical
aid, without benefit ; and thus I wearied along an.
til the winter of 1845, when I heard of Wistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry.
My friends persuaded me to give it a trial,
though I had given up all hopes of recovery, and
had prepared myself for the change of another
woriti. Through their solicitations I was induced
to make use of the Genuine Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry. 'rho effect was truly astonishing.
After five years of affliction, pain and suffering,
and after having spent four or five hundred dollars
to no purpose, and the best and most respectable
physicians proved unavailing, I was soon restored
to entire health by the blessing of God and the use
of Dr. Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry.
I em now enjoying good health, and such is
my altered appearance, that I run no longer known
when I meet myacquaintance..
I have gained rapidly in weight, and my flesh
is firm anti solid. I can now eat as much as any
person, and my food seems to r pee will' me. I
have eaten more during the last six months, than
I had eaten in five years before.
Considering my case almost as a miracle, I
deem it necessary for the good of the raided, and
a duty I owe to the proprietors and my fellow
men, (who should known where relief may be had)
to make this statement public.
May the M. ssings of God rest upon the Froprie
torsof so valuable a medicine as Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry. Yours, Respectfully,
• WM. H. BAKER.
r - r-Read the following from Dr. Jacob
Hoffman, a physician of extensive prac
tice in Huntingdon county :
Dear Sir :-1 procured one bottle of
Dr. Wistar's Balsam of mild Cherry,
from Thomas Read, Esq., of this place,
and tried it in a case of obstinate Asth
ma on a child of Paul Schweble, in which
many other remedies had been tried
without any relief. The balsam gave
sudden relief, and in my opinion the
child is effectually cured by its use.
Yours, &c:, ..
