in o,fer ports, keep down prices bv hav-
ms curtalled the demand, and ma prospect
is offered Of amendment. From what We
hear OF the large shipments in the United
Safes tor the Continent of Europe, the i'm
por:s to this Island may be mucn less than
hitherto and the prices advance from this
cause. |, IS, however, not xactiv known
yet, wha, alterations it envy will take place
in the pr, s. mt stai- Of the bluckadlng s)s
tenn towards France, and upon this perhaps
may depend the success or Otherwise Ct

We sincerely hope and trust that no mis-
understanding, however, will take place

sures adopted by each, will !e in friendly
unison. Tobaccos are very dull IN sale, aud

Suce1nne Yellow Bark.

THIS POWDER, consisting chiefly Of
the cxtr1ctiye matter and reslnnus portion OF
the bark, wherein it's virtue as a medicine is
known to reside. is separated III degree
from the hard hhrous ahG other useless parts
in manufacturing. 1t will, therefore, be
found preferable, on account of its purity,
strength, freness, and the small quantity
required, to any other form in which the
bark has hitherto been generally used.
The superiority of this bark will be partl-
cularly manifest il the treatment of those
diseases in which, on account of an irritable
state of the stomach and bowels, the requi~
site quantity Of the imperlectly ground bark
in common use cannot be administered and
as any of the watery or spiritHous prepara-
tons are we'll known to be Intellectual in ur-
gent cases, it is presumed that the present
form will prove generally acceptable.
The proprietor thinks 1t unnecessary to
offer any apology to those of his medical bre.
thren to whom he is personally known, when
he recommends to them in particular this
elegant powder ofbark since many of them
have, in common with him, had SO frequent
and painful occasion, in the coul sc of long
practice, to depiore the want OF so desirable
a form of using that inestimabie remedy and
80 fully is he assured of its superior efficacy,
from numerous proofs OF its effects. that he
offers it to the faculty in general, without
fearing the imputation ofimposition.
