TO THE PUBLIC.

WITT EASTMAN would still invite the at
Il Il. tenton of the afflicted, and the public
generally, to his Elirir Of Health.
He is encouraged 10 do so from the in
creased evidence ofits efficacy as success
ful remedial agent for many of the maladics
and diseases to which tie human family are
subject. From eight years experience in
the efficacy of this medicine, he is warranted
in assuring the pu bic that 10 medicine has
proved so universally salutary and beneficial
as family medicine. 1t was devised as an
assistant to the Efforts of nature whose op-
'erations are always exerted to rid the sys-
TEN of whatever is dcleterlous, and to main
tain healthy action throughout. This she
would ever accomplish were she not occa-
slonally overpowered by counteracting eau
scs, such as marsh miasmata, impure air
colds, exposures, irregularities, sc. BY
these the primary organs are deranged, en-
fccbled and overpoW ered-hence disease in
some form is the result.
The Elixir was designed to assist nature
in expeling from the system all morbid and
deleterious matter give vlgor, tone and en-
ergy to the digestive organs and the secre-
tory'vessels, the prime regulators of the
whole, upon the proper action of which de-
pend the health of the entire system.
The success which has attended the ad-
ministration of the Elixir, proves conclusive
ly that it answers the purpose of its design.
1t is adopted and has proved most signally
successful in all those cases of arrangement
of the digestive organs indicated by loss of
appetite, nausea, oppression from food,
acidity. heartburn, weakness, lassitude,
sense of weariness, pains in the stomach,
side shoulder or limbs -costiveness--dizz
ness bilious habis--nervous symptoms
melancholy detection sp;rits--dsturbed
seep-cold hands and feet-sick headache
Liver complaints-jaundce &c. For
Dyspepsia it has proved more successful
than any other known remedy. For feeble
and delicate females, chidrel whose health
has been impaired by Ague and Fever and
other diseases: it proves sovereign resto-.
rative for that state of i'll health SO frequent
y met with in new and fiat sections, and
such as border on sluggish waters, indica-
ted by pale and sallow countenances, debili-
ly, loss of appetite, bilious habits &c., it is
invaluable and from its powers of removing
morbid matter from the systcm--preventin
its accumulations and keeping the digestive
organs in healthy aud vigorous state, is
powerful prev entative of the diseases Incl
dent TO such countries--no new settler in
such sections should as he values bis
health, dispense with its use. Females of

South SEA EXPLORING ExPEDITIoN.--

dition, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated
at Orange Harbour, Terra del Fuego, 22d.
February, is published in the Washington

cc!ved Of the squadron since Its starting.--
Ais well---dnd the loss of two anchors con-
stitutes the catalogue of casualties thus far.
The following is extracted from the letter
by the Philadelphia Times.
"We have been also since our arrival
constantly engaged in preparing the vessel
for a cruise 20 the antarctic regions. Al
though am fully aware that the attempt is
hazardous, and may probably be unsuc-
cessful, yet advantages may accrue from it
to our future operations in any attempt we
may hereafter make, and cannot iorego
the opportunity which the season yet al
iorfs to make the trial.

harbor, safely moored, and proceed with
the Porpoise and the tender Sea Gull, en-
deavur to gain further knowledge ofthe ex-
tent Of Pamer's land to the southwark and
eastward, as there may be less ice in that
vicinity at this late season than at any 9th
er time, the new ice not having yet formed
Which trust will enable me to gain infor-
nation for any future attempt.

Relief, and are well supplied with warm
clothing, preserved meats, and autiscorbu-
tics for any emergency, to make US comfor-

From The Ohio Whig.

IN MEMORY OF =
Around the hearth,
Where every bond of peace
Enknded smiles, that wreath
The ties by which the heart
Is made to beat in uuson.--
Where hope had cherished hope.
And every glance sent forth
New rays TO shut the darkness out
That renders life curse,--Death
Was spectator there.
On lowering wing,
Around the blooming flower,
Unconscious that anght else
His errand meant, than warning
To some unredeemed, he stood
Exulting DER the vital feast,
And round with smiling pleasure guzed,
Then closed his wings.
But not as on
One unprepnred to meet
With smiles such messenger,
And bid hearty wccome:--
Thu 'twould send dart
With thrilling pangs to touch
The heur, of him who best
Knows how to mourn the loss
To her gain.
Great nature spoke!
But while with death, the victory
Seemed easier than oft it has,
And scarcely satisfied his thirst
A heavenly light appeared!
AS though 'twere borne on
Angels wings, to guide
Beyond the reach of time,
To scenes where sorrow, signing, pain
Nor death shall come.
So died the lovely one
But tho it wounded deep,
And touched the chord which
Vibrates now with tender tone of wo,
And sounds the symphonies OF lfe,-
Her death hung out lamp
To guide his feet, as
Did the oriental star,
OF radiant smiles, which
Der the just brighter vision threw,
Ofheavenly peacefulness.
Where is thy sting,
o death! to those who can
Embrace SO TRANQUILITY, and
Meet thy arm extended wide,
To snatch from eerth
Her lovel;est ornaments!
And thou, o grave!
Where is thy victory;
When every star, as lamps of heaven,
Appear to wear new smiles,
And send glad tidings down,
OF victory crowned on high!
