that vast number Of persons in Boston,

Valuable Medicine.
ANTLDYSPEPTIC PILLS,
PREPARED BY HENRY JAMES.

a N approved and almost GER
4 tain remedy for Dyspepsia, or Indiges-
ton, Habitual Costiveness, and Piles.
1t is well known that Dyspepsia is one of The
most frequent and formidable diseases of our
country. Its commencement is indicated in
different patients by various symptoms, of
which the most remarkable are-frregulGrify
Of The boUels, obstinate eosiiueneSs, riolent head
ache, commonly called nervous or sick head
ache, yelIo,oness Of the eyes and skin, aeidty Of
stomach after eating, often called heartburn,
Gdtulence, or wind on the stomach, bitter taste an
the mouth in the morning, fetid breath, drolcsi
ness after dinner debility, IasSttrde, enlactGtion,
depression Of spirits, sc.
The Pills now offered arc not proposed on
the principle of specifcks. Their use was sug-
gested by theory but their efficacy has been
tested by long and faithful experience, and the
result has been unparalleled success.
Piles being connected with indigestion and
costiveness, are certainly and speedily remoy-
ed by the Pills.
Persons afflicted with any of the above
symptoms, are assured that the Anti-Dyspep-
tic Pills are remedy well worth their atten-
ton, and entitled to their entire confidence.

THE ALBIO.N.-Once more.

THE .aLBIO.N.-Once more.
We have just been to pay visit to
William Eyerhart, Esq. and to bid him
welcome home" We are happy to
say his health is good; and, considering
the dreadful scenes he has passed thro',
his spirits are free and buoyant. AL
though | knew he had been, and would
be questioned out of patience, respect
ing his shipwreck, | could not refrain
from asking him to repeat the most ma
terial incidents over again; for there is
a freshness in the story which You hear
directly from the lips of one who was
present at an event, which is lost when
fecaiond second or third-handed.
He told me that the chief circum-
stances as they had been related in the
papers, were correct. The voyage
had been so far prosperous and pleas
ant for the season-but Mr.. Egerhart
himself had suffered much from sea-
sickness and was almost constantly con-
fined to his room. The storm of the
day, it was supposed, was over they
were near to the coast, and all hands
fiattered themselves, that in a short
time they should reach their destined
harbour but about 8 o'clock in the
evening heavy sea struck the ship,
swept several seamen from the deck,
carried away her masts, and stove in
her hatchways, so that every wave
which passed over her, ran into the
hold without any thing to stop 1.-THE
ratings were carried away and the
wheel which aided them to steer. In
short, that fatal wave left the Albion a
wreck. She was then about 90 miles
from shore, and Capt. Williams steadily
and coolly gave his orders--he cheered
the passengers and crew with the hope
that the wind would shift and blow off
shore. The sea was very rough, the
vessel manageable and the passen-
gers were obliged to be tied to the
pumps, that they might work them
All who could do no good on deck re-
tired below, but the water was knee
deep in the cabin, and the furniture
floating about, rendering the situation
dangerous and dreadful.
All night long the wind blew gale
directly on shore, towards which the
Albion was drifting at the rate of about
three miles an hour The complete
hopelessness of their situation was known
to few except Capt. Williams. The
coast was familiar to him and he must
have seen in despair and horror through
out the night, the certainty of their
fate. AT length the ocean dashing and
roaring upon the precipice of rocks
under the lee Of the ship, told them
that their hour was come. Captain W.
summoned all on deck, and briefly told
them that the ship must soon strike it
was impossible to preserve her. Mr..
Everhart says that he was the last that
left the cabin. Professor Fisher was
behind him-but he is confident new
CIR came on deck, but persisted be-
low. Some, particularly the females,
expressed their terrour in wild shrieks.
Major Cough, Of the British army, re-
marked, that s Death, come as he would,
was an unwelcome messenger, but they
must meetit as they could" Very lit
tie was said by others, the men waiting
the unexpected shock in silence. Gen.
Lefegre Dssnonetts, during the voyage,
had evidently wished to remain without

BE doubly blest tn suspicious day
This ediice was plann'd;
And may immortal gifts repay
The founders liberal hand:
Angels with joy beheld it rise,
To train immortals to the skies.
How sweet to mark the artless throng,
To hear tn Ingenious youth
Raise with one voice the infant song,
And learn the word of truth:
Delightful work His path to trace,
Who died to save our ruin'd Rce.
Now fancy DER life's little span
Chances her busy eyes,
And sees them bear the name Of man
industrious, good and wise;
Bids them each useful art employ;
Anticipates their future joy.
With quenchless zeal some Whitefeld may
From hence arise and shine,
To wipe the wretch's tears away,
And heal with balm divine;
With winning eloquence, to tell
What glories in Emmanuel dwell.
Some Of the little ones may live
IT, adorn their country's name:
Indulgent Heaven by them may give
Fresh lustre to her fame.
Some may the blessed gospel bear
40 distant lands, and plant it there.
Perhaps the eye Of Heaven may view
Some infant Milton here
Perhaps some youthful Howard too,
To every age still dear;
Perhaps some Wilberforce-again
Pleading with zeal the rights of men.
And many to this honour'd spot,
On Gods eventful day,
Ooh, happy, enviable lofty
Grateful shall point and say,
There--there-to us the bliss was giv'n,
To seek and find the path TO heav'n!

apprehensions. Whatever may be the
properties of the Rye, produced in the
neighbourhood of Boston, there is a.
bundant reason to believe that the Penn
sylvania Rye may be safely used as a
substitute for imported Coffee. That it
has been so used for long time, both
in the city of Philadelphia and through
out the State of Pennsylvania, by great
number of families, is well-known
fact; and it has not yet appeared that
the injurious consequences mentioned
by +" A Friend to Health' have been
produced. No such testimony has been
adduced by our physicians-on the con-
trary, Rye Coffee has sometimes been
recommended by them.
The writer of this knows many fam
lilies in which Rye Coffee has long been
used, and without any mixture of i'm
ported Coffee, not only without proving
injurious, but to manifest advantage
for in various instances, persons subject
TO vertigo, while they used imported
Coffee, have found effectual relief by
using Rye Coffee. Such has also been
the experience Of the writer of this
article. Z.
II is common remark, that, "uudter-
melons will hurt no one." We beg those
who think SO, TO glance at the following
remarks from the Baltimore Morning
Chrmicle-they are worthy at least of a
moments consideration -
Il is not generally known that water
melons are extremely deleterious to
health, especially at this season of the
rear, and among children. The in
habitants of Mississippi and Louisiana, e.
ven of the most sanguine constitutions
dare not eat them and it is believed
that the complaint so prevalent among
children, at this time, may generally be
attributed to the excessive use of this
fruit. Their pernicious effects may be
accounted for in this way-their extreme
fluidity when taken into the stomach ha:
the effect of dilutiug the saliva, wliicl
is the active agent of digestion; thereby
producing Indigestion, weakness of the
stomach, and of consequence, diarrhea
dysentery and general emaCiation. The
excessive use of fruit of all kinds, blu
particularly melons, produce more dis
ease than all the miasms Of our country
Would it not be we'll then for parent
who regard their chlldrens' health, Il
Danish these pernicious agents of disease
from their houses? Experience ha
taught me 10 avoid them, as would thu
efluvia of the poison tree on the isIant
of Java. A LOVER OF HEALTH.

thanks 10 the House for the indulgence which
they had extended to them.
The address Of Mr.. Bib, like that of his
colleague, was powerfully pathetic and touch
ing, when he spoke of the land Of his nativity.
There was not heart i'm the House that did
no; feet what was said.-On the whole, the
spectacle thus exhibited for the last two days
was one of those rare scenes in public ffe, OF
