Indian Purgative Pills

Possess t,oo very remarkable properties
One Is, they cannot possibly do injury or
harm; and the other is, they are ai,oays
sure TO do good.
This may appear strange TO some but when we
reflect that they cure disease upon N.ATURE'S
OWN PLAN, viz: purifying the blood of all cor
rupt humors, it will not appear wonderful that they
are perfectly innocent, and at the same time all pow
erful in the cure of disease.
MoRE THAN FIVE THOUSAND persons in New
England, have been cured of intermittent, Remit
tent nervous, inAamatory and putrid Fevers; .Mea-
sizes, EryspeIas and Small Pox; nflamations of the
Brain of the Throat of the Stomach of the Lungs
of the Liver of the Intestines, the Kidneys, and
the Bladder; Rheumatism, both acute and chronic
splitting and vomiting of blood, Diarrhna, Dysenta-
y and Chohcs; Syncope, Appopexy, and Paray-
sis; Dyspepsia and Hypochondrasis; Tetanus, Ep-
ilepsy. whooping Cough, asthma and Paptation o.
the Hearts incplent Consumption and Maramus:-
dropsy Of the Head, the Chest the Abdomen and
the Limbs; scorfula, Scurvey, and Syphilis; From
chocee and Cancer, Gravel and Stranguary, loss of
Appetite, Costiveness. sick head ache FlatuIency
pains in the Stomach, pains in the Back and Side,
and other complaints of the Kidneys and Liver, u
GERS and Sores of every description; Mysteries,
weak nerves and lowness of Spirits, as well as
Leucorrpa, Menorrhea, Suppression, and other del

CARDINAL FEscH's WILL. The will of
Napolean's uncle continues the theme OF
the most extraordinary statements. SO
many versions already circulate that if an
able accountant were to addition the mill
ions and pictures variously distributed, our
state budget would already be exceeded.
Another letter from Rome has the follow
ing: Cardinal Fesch leaves the greater
part of his property to Joseph, entailing it
upon such of the Bonapartes as shall be
the head of the family after the death of
Joseph. The legacies are numerous and
considerable. There is one of 200, 900
Roman scuidi Il ,O70, 900 francs, to sup
ply the wants of the family who might here
after fall into poverty. The Cardinal leaves
1000 scudi for the marriage of Madame
de Cantno's last daughter; % 900 scudi to
the master of his chapel, to be disposed OF
according to secret instructions. This le-
gacy is said to be in favor Of a Madame
b, who is alleged to be connected by
the ties of blood with the testator; 5000
scudi are to be paid to the nuns Of Cornet-
to, where his Emnence s body is to be de-
posted until the church for which be has
left fund, shall be built at Ajaccio in Cor
sca. Twenty-Five years are allowed for
the erection of the church, where the Car
dinal is to be buried with his sister, and
where the other members of the family may
have their hearts deposited. Ajaccio is
moreover, to receive sum towards the
foundation of an academy, together with
1000 pictures from the immense and mag
nifcent gallery o fthe late Cardinal. These
pictures were to be selected by the French
painter, M. Ingres. The Pope is to select
Tor himself The remainder of the collec-
