INDIAN SPECIFIC.

For the cure of Colds, Coughs, Consumptioas,
Shifting of Blood, asthmas, and all dis
easeso fhe Breast and Lungs.
VvHERE is perhaps no medical observation
i better established, none more generally
confirmed, by the experience Of the best ply.
sicians, of all ages and countries, and none of
more importance to the human family, than
the fact that many of the most difficult and in
durable consumptions originate in neglected
colds. In climate so variable as ours where
the changes of the weather are frequently
sudden and unexpected, it requires more
care and attention to guard against this dam
gerous enemy of life than most people ina
CINE, or are able and wiling to best0w. The
bills of mortality exhibit the melancholy fact
that the proportion of deaths by this disease,
may be considered as about five to one. In
asmuch then as this fatal disease bids defiance
to the skill of the most learned physicians, it
is qualification to the proprietor that he is
enabled to offer to those afflicted with it, a
goodly prospect of relief, in that highly valu-
able remedy the Vegetable INDIAN SPECl-
FIG. The Indians are happy in their know
ledge of medical plants; governed wholly by
experience, they are certain as to their effect
and it is said by an author Of great character,
that true consumption is disease never
known among them.
The celebrated DIR. Cullen has taught us,
that sour first attention should be employed in
watching the approach Of the disease and pre-
venting its proceeding to an incurable state;
and in persons of consumptive habit esPe-
cally those born of consumptive parents, the
slightest symptoms of an approaching con.
sumption at the consumptive period Of Lite
ought carefully to be attended to-
This Specific is obtained by extraction
from herbs, roots, flowers, plants, &c. when
in perfection. In consequence Of happy
combination of the most valuable herbs, &c. it
becomes balsam of superior value. 1t heals
the injured parts, opens the pores, and COM
poses the disturbed nerves, after the manner
of an snodyne, consequently the obstruction
of the chest and the lungs which constitute
this disease, particularly need its use. It pro-
notes expectoration, which is constantly call
ed for, and whilst it cleanses and heals, it also
gives strength to the tender lungs. In this
manner It removes the hectic fever, improves
digestion, gives strength to the nerves, re-
pairs the appetite and improves the spirits
This specific may always be given IN safety
It is mild, pleasant to the taste, and may safely
be given to infants, for which it is of inestima-
BILE value. It affords relief in bowel com
plants, teething, whooping coughs, &c: and
is found particularly useful in hypochondrical,
nervous and hysterical diseases. Each bill q

disease in all its different stages, and viii be

LETTERS FROM THE EAsT-SCENEs
IN EGYPT.
While at Kench, We paid another VI
sit to the Temple Of Tentyra: the CO.
lumns of the portico are Of fine white
stone and are % feet in circumference.
After visiting those of Thebes, Esne,
and Edfu, it was still delightful to gaze
ON this superb and elegant ruin, by far
the most impressive of all. The beau
tiful zodiac on the ceiling of one of the
inner apartments has been taken off
entire BY the French, and carried to
Paris. Marble is rarely TO be found in
the Egyptian ediHces, the materials OF
which they are composed being gene
rally of fine white, or light yellow
stone, or coarse granite. After leaving
Girge we arrived at the town Of About
ive early in the morning. A funeral
procession of the Arabs took place
here; first walked a number Of men,
three or four abreast, at a slow pace,
singing in mournful voice, with the
priest at their head; the corpse was
borne after them on the shoulders OF
six bearers; it was laid on an open bier
completely covered, and followed by a
number of women, who uttered loud
cries and wailings at intervals, to show
their sorrow. Having hired couple
Of asses, / set out to ride inland to
Monfalut, attended by a young Arab
of the Gangia. After crossing plain,
and ferry caused by the inundation,
and passing by some pretty villages al
most buried in groves of palm trees,
in one of which was held an Arab fair,
we entered on waste of sand, with a
mart of the Libyan chain of mountains
close on the left. After riding some
time we approached some lofty walls
surrounding square enclosure, and be-
ing curious to know what it contained,
we found small hamlet of Copts with
in, consisting Of Ave or six dwellings,;
one solitary and lofty palm tree rose in
the midst. These poor people con-
Quoted us into a rude little building
which they called their church; it was
imperfectly lighted, and the curtain
concealed the entrance into an inner
room or sanctuary, out of which they
brought, and displayed with no small
pride, two wretched paintings, in oil
colors, of the Virgin and her Son, and
another of some venerable saint or a.
postle. On enquiring if they had any
books, three large and ancient ones
were produced, much the worse Tor
wear. and written in the CoPtic cha nc.
tiers. The manners and appearance OF
this little community, thus secluded In
the desert, had much innocence and
simplicity. Their retreat was secured
BY strong door. The patriarch OF the
hamlet, q scaerahle old man, gave as
his. blessing fervently at parting. FUR
suing our way, the next objective came
to deserving notice, was a very neat
Arab burying ground in the m'dst OF

HEARTS EASE.
From the Boston Patriof.]
I used to love thee, simple fow'r,
To love thee dearly when a boy;
For thou did'st seem, in childhood's hours,
The smiling type of childhood's JOY.
But now thou only mock'st my grief
BY waking thoughts of pleasure fed;
Give me-give me the wither'd Leaf,
That falls on Autumn's bosom-dead.
For that ne'ertells Of what has been,
But warns me what soon shall be;
ltlooks not back to pleasures scene,
But points unto futurity.
love thee not thou simple iow'r,
For thou art gay and l am lone
Thy beauty died with childhood's hour
The hearts ease from my path is gone.

in doing so, We have been governed more by

any expectation of afforling them new lights,
or the slightest compensation for the time the

believe, that the public mind is already fully
made up on the merits and dement's OF the va
r.ous prominent men who have figured In the
late presidential contest; and even II IL were
not so in general, certainly the character OF
Mr.. Ingham, as developed on that OCCASION
must inevitably exclude has ertdenee from the
consideration of every intelligent and unbiass-
ed enquirer.
To say nothing of the conspiracy which he
organised, and vainly boasts of having led,
his conduct on the floor of Congress was so
far below the dignity of an American legisla-
tor, as TO preclude the possibility of defence
by his own most violent partizans; and his
tacit acknowledgement, now, of having writ
ten the fulsome TRADE, purporting to be an
address from George Kremer to his constitu-
ents, is ofitsclf enough, without the aid OF his
present supplement, to sink him in the est
nation Of every man, who regards decency or
feels for the honor of mis- country.
He commences his address BY gravely tell

rious incidents connected with this momentous
affair; and if he goes upon the presumption
that no other information has reached them
than that derived from the Columbian Odserr-

clear, we imagine, to be controverted. But
why his constituents have been kept so long

George Kremer, he must, # We believe his

formation, could it have been substantiated,
was highly important, as well to the vindica-
ton of Kremer's course in the House Of Re-
representatives., as to the main object of pros
trating the character Of Mr.. Clay. Why then
was it withhold And why, at this late day,
is no evidence offered in its support. Mr..
Ingham cannot be ignorant that the public re-
quire something more than vague conjecture,
and his ipse dixit upon the authority of Kre-
mer.

Mr.. Krider, from Guayaquil, via Pa
mama and Jamaica, reports the follow
ing intelligence:-Ten sail of American
vessels arrived at Chorelies the end Of
January, under convoy Of the y. s.
schnr. Dolphin. Among them the Jane,
Gallagher, Of Philadelphia; the North
Point, Of Baltimore, was to sail the first
of February. Ship Neptune, Land, at
Guayaquil, 18th February, for Phila-
delphia, in 10 days; brig President,
Wooten, for San Bias, in week; brig
Laura, of Salem, from Baltimore, just
arrived. In consequence Of the great
inundation Of flour, it had fallen in Lii
ma to 81 so per bbl. on board; and
other American produce was dull, ow-
ing chiefly to the great scarcity OF mo-
ney at Lima. U. S. ship Peacock, was
at Chorilla. Frigate United States had
sailed for Inanchaco.
The castle of CaIlao remained in
possession OF the Spanidrds, on the lst
Feb. but was closely blockaded by the
troops under Bolivar by land The
Chill squadron Of four sail and two CO.
lombian vessels Of war were making
preparations to reduce them by storm
when the expected reinforcements of
troops should arrive from Guavaouil.
Transports with 1900 Colombian troops
sailed from Guayaquil for Chasillos
about the Goth Jan. the only remaining
part of 1000 men transported from
Colombia to Guayaquil via Panama,
more thar 1900 having died at the ISL
and of Puma at the entrance Of Guaya-

Guayaouil the 9Th Feb. TO join the
squadron off Callao. -
The frigate Protector mounting %
guns and well manned, was ready Tor
sea, those, together with the Macedo-
Man schr. of Is guns had on board the
ordnance and ammunition for the re-
duction of Callao. Some dissatisiac-
ton has prevailed among the squadron,
in consequence of the arrival OF Adj
miral Guisc, who, from some mis-
understanding with the Intendant OF
Guayaquil, has been sent under arrest,
to Lima for trial.
The new Congress was to convene
at Lima on the 10th Of February, but
it was supposed some change would be
made in the members owing to iour-
fifths Of their number being Padras,
and not generally popular with the Ii
bcrator. Monte Gardo, who 1t was
expected would have the Govemorshlp
of Lima, was assassinated the end OF
January.
