Sia,—Having been informed of the surprising cure
Barnes, of St. Paul's Churchyard, who was so severely afflicted by
Rheumatism, the intense pain causing delirium, that he was com-
pelled to be confined by a strait waistcoat to prevent his commit-
violence, and whose case was considered entirely hopeless,
ja asiy induced to ascertain the particulars, and being satisfied of
he truth of my information, encouraged me to make a trial of your
most invaluable Medicine, entertaining little hopes of success, hav-
ing been many years so severe a sufferer, and tried many said to be
very valuable remedies. lam very happy in being able in adding
my testimony of the benefit I derived : after a few days' application
the use of my limbs are perfectly restored, and I am now able to
attend my business, and, making an allowance for my age, never
was better in my life. To those, however severely afflicted and
hopeless their case may have been pronounced, I beg of them to
make a trial, feeling quite satisfied they will be restored to the use
of their limbs, from the severe cases that have yielded to this Me-
dicine. Health is a great blessing to those who can enjoy it, but
to those who are deprived, none feels it so severe as the tradesman
or mechanic, as it generally causes loss of business, and ruin en
families. I shall at all times feel it my duty to make it known to
those afflicted, to evince how grateful I am for my restoration, and
am, Sir, yours truly, GEORGE POLLARD.

FuIiEIGN AND COLONIAL,

UNITED STATES,

By the Cambria steamer, which arrived.at Liverpool
r— Thursday, (having made the voyage from Halifax in
iae and a half days,) among other intelligence we have
the:very gratifying fact of the safe arrival of the Great
Britain steamer at New York, which place she reached
on Sunday the 10th ultimo, at noon, -thus having per-
formed her first outward passage in leas than fifteen days.
We need scarcely say that the leviathan vessel became an
object of curiosity to the good people of New York,
rnalgre their own conceited prepossessions that nothing
very astonishing could be exhibited to them in the shape
of a " Britisher." The following is a comprehensive
summary of the intelligence brought by the Cambria :
The news from America is of the regular snail dates, the
15th from New York, and the 16th from Boston. There
is somewhat important news from Mexico, but there is
no actual declaration of war, even though certain parties
in Liverpool were hoaxed to forward one to London some
weeks since.

The advices from Mexico are dated Vera Cruz, July
21st ; and the New Orleans papers of August 7th inform
us that the Mexican Consul at that port had received offi-
cial instructions from the Mexican Secretary of State, in-
forming him that the relations between that government
and the United States had reached such a point as required
the immediate cessation of all official intercourse; that
their friendly relations were at an end, and that all Mexi-
cans were to be directed to take such measures for the
security of their persons and property as they might deem
expedient. This intelligence, however, comes merely in
the shape of a private communication ; and as no such
intimation had been received by the Mexican Consul at
New York, these reports are to be received with extreme
caution:

The government organ at Washington, in referring to
certain various and contradictory rumours relative to the
disposition of United States troops sent to the Texan fron-
tier, declares in positive terms that these troops are not to
be withdrawn, and that it is expected to hear by the next
arrival, that General Taylor had advanced with the infan-
try under his command, as far as Corpus Christi, and
perhaps penetrated the country farther from the Gulf east.
Col. Twiggs, in command of the dragoons, had advanced
through Austin farther west, to the vicinity, perhaps, of
the Alamo.

The Canada papers contain nothing of much interest,
although there are some matters discussed by the public
journals of that province, of no slight importance to them-

American side to secure it. There is a project talked of
at present, of connecting Lake Champlain and Lake On-
tario by railroad. The weather has been very warm at
Quebfc, the thermometer ranging from 90 to 95 there.
As the latest American commercial news, (Aug. 15th,)
it is stated that since the sailing of the last steamer, there
has been an increased interest in our Mexican affairs. The
news from that country is of a hostile character, and
the American government have sent military forces into
Texas ; the indications are that the government of Mexico
will declare war against America. This news has had
some influence to depress stocks, but in trade, generally,
they have had no effect on the market.

Bard is paid to the western trade, which has beccme
importance, that a strong rivalry exists be-

The affairs of individuals were gradually recovering
from the effects of the fire. Most of the insurance offices
are paying up promptly, and mechanics are actively en-
gaged in re-building. In six months from this time, it is
believed that most of the stores in the burnt district will
