CURE FOR THE ASTHMA.

Messrs Ednors-Accident tire" me
into the company of gentleman OF
Port .au- Prince, and while enjoying a
short walk with him in the neighbour
hood OF that city, noticed him draw
up Jameste.vn Weed, and deposit the
root in his pocket. The care he took OF
this, as l then thought useless root IN.
duced me to ask his motive, He stated
that from infancy be had been afflicted
soreiy with the Asthma that 1t hao
many times nearly deprived him OF lie F;
that all the medical assistance in HIS
PAMELA and the neighbouring Islands
had Been tried on him without effect
and that an old friend had advised his
trying this root of the weed, dried and
smoked in a pipe, when the fit was
coming on-which he had practised tor
several year. with complete success.
Your giving the above an insertion IN
your valuable paper, will much oblige
your friend. -

a NlRlIlN1AN-NO. III.
The committee allow that the orders
in council were repealed at the moment
Of their declaration of war, and although
not expected by them, yet it was such ii
repeal. as zras admitted, to have remov-
ed a great obstacle to accommodation
and they candidly confess, "that the o.
Their Only remained, the practice oil im-
pressment." They say {" that a substl-
tute was prepared and defined to rcme-
dy this Of character so comprehensive
as TO have removed every obstacle to an
accommodation" 1t would have been an
act of that fairness which the committee
lay such claim to, ifthey had given their
constituents some better proof than their
own and Mr.. Madison's ASSERTIONS upon
this subject. The very learned & well
informed representative fromNew- York;
MIR. Emott, has distinctly proved, that
no such proposition ever was made by
our present administ, alton, * that none
heretofore offered, I'D any such tenden-
cy, except the one rejected BY Jefferson,
after il had been ARA gsd by Messleurs
Munroe and Pirkrey, as ore Just and
ho~cra5!e FIR oar counsry. Ire dec'a-
ration of the Prince Regent proves, that
the proposition for an aranistice was bot
toned upon the idea, not that our jag
should protect our se0nfn, but that II
should also protect all trrsons saa'rS Nm
derit, upon promise that British scamen
Should be by law excluded from our SER
vice, which was at once acknowledging
ire 73rht of G. Britain to their services
or qyrong in employing them, and tie
injustice, of course, Of commencing the
war for a cause, where We were our
selves equally in fault, and which, as we
have seen, might have been settled with
out any such resort, had our admlnistra'
tion honestly intended 1t, or their party
in Congress wished to have removed 1t
as cause of irritation on the public
mind, and pretext for those measures
of violence and oppression which are
most certain to grow out OF the state OF
things TO which they have brought u.s.
In their reasonings upon this suoJect,
the committee have gone into 9rea'
mass of idle defamation and untrue as
| sertion. That the iwtrSSsment OF sf0me"
was never considered, as they assert

Of brotherhood is sever'd as the fax
That falls asunder at the touch OF ilre.
