innocent, SO efficacious, and pleasant, that no
child will refuse TO let its gums be rubbed with it,
When infants are 1t the age of four months though
there is appearance of teeth, bottle of the

Parents should never be without the syrup in the

They impart strength and yigor to the whole sys-
TEN, and their effects always beneficial; because
they only remove those humors which are opposed
to health They aid and improve digestion, and
sound sleep follows their nse; because they cleanse
the stomach and bowels of those Shiny humors
which not only irritate and excite the nervous sys-
tem but paralyze and weaken the digestive organs.
In short they possess all the good properties that

VALUABLE INFORMATION.

| ire THE NDLf.N VEGETdBLE PILLS
Are certain cure for disease in its variety OF
form. because they thoroughly cleanse the stomach
and bowels, induce proper discharge by thelungs,
skin and kidneys, and stimulate the blood to purify
tself. In other words They open all the natural
drains. and leave MIXTURE lrHE GRAND PHYS
IcIAN) free to drive disease from the body The
| above outlets, or drains, the common sewers OF
the body through which all morbid and corrupt hu-
mors (the of disease) carried off: and so
long they all kept open, and discharge freely
their allotted portions of impurity, the body will con-
tiuue in health; but when from eating improper
food breathing impure air, sudden transitions from
heat to cod over exhaustion any other cause, the
bowels become costiye, the pores of the skin be-
come closed or the kidneys fail TO perform Their
functions properly, the impurities which should be
drained from the body by these outlets, will be re-
tained and continue to accumulate until the body
becomes literally loaded with disease.
If the channels of our mighty rivers should be-
come blocked up, would not the accumulated wa
ters find new outlets, or the country become mum
dated? Just so with the human body; if the natu-
rail drains become closed, the stagnant and corrupt
humors will find vent in the various forms of dis
ease, such as fever, small pox. measles, rheuma-
tism, gout apoplexy &C., or death will end our suf
ferings. Therefore, when sickness at the stomach
pains in the back and side, quick pulse. burning
skin, orany other unpleasant symptoms Indicate
that one or more of the natural drains not dis
charging freely, and that the constitution is about to
commence struggle for the restoration of health,
no time should be lost in administering few brisk
doses of the Indian Purgative INDIAN VEGETA-
BILE PILLs.) BY SO doing, all the functions Of the
body will be restored to order, and the foul humors
(the cause of every inflammation or pain we suffer)
will be removed in so easy and natural u manner
that the body will be restored as if by charm.
More than twelve thousand persons can be refer
red to who have been cured of complaints appar-
emily of the most dangerous character, solely by the
use of the INDIAN YEGETaBLE PILLS.
The above Pills may be taken at ALL times, and
under all circumstances, with perfect safely. They
suit MI COMPLAINTS and all ages, and are
natural to the human constitution as food; eonse-
quently they can NEVER INJURE even the most
delicate. Like our food, they digestible; there

As we expected, we have awful accounts OF
the effects of the late Gale AT Cape Ann about
90 coasting vessels, whica had put in for safety,
were driven ashore, of which l6 went to pieces,
and probably fourth part of the individuals on
board perished. The Palladium states that IL
dead bodies were thrown on the beach-one
woman from a Castine schooner. The Mary "
Eliza. of Belfast. is reported among this number
At Sandy Bay, a sch., (name unknown) soadeo
with Rour, struck on the reef and went to pe'
ees--it Is thought all on board perished.
AZ Cape Cod, the disasters have been numer-
Gus. We observe among them only one eastern
vessel-- the Margaret, Williams, from this port'
for Charleston, S. C.. She is ashore. one m'if
south of Cohasset harbor. She was light ana
upright, says the Palladium, Monday noon,
brig of 900 tons, was at anchor. one mile ron
