EN- the first place, take quart Of Rum Of the
4 best quality, aud qIart Of new clean Tar,
putting the mixture in a stone jug that will con-
tain double the quantity that It may hive room TO
boil without bursting; then cork the jug complete.
" tight 40 that the air cannot pass IA or out, then
place this vessel iE pot iull Of water aud boil 1t
brskly for one hour aud II will become complete
II mkt, you may swing the Jug IN the pot so as
Ia keep il upright. Then let the patient take
table spoonful 10 the morning, and al night before
going 10 bed if the patient be very low, take but
tea spoonlul three iioes day and they
gain strength take little more, till they can bear
d table spoonful twice day, say night and morn.
ing lf,his does not effect cure, make the same
quantity as before, and that will be sufficient
Tho patient should not drink any kind of spirits
whatever, and chpuld be particular in his diet,
avoiding all kinds Of gross heavy food, such as
salt bacon and the like; also sweet milk also
avoid getting wet take very moderate exercise;
live on very light diet, such as rice, soup OF fowls,
&c; carefully avoid drinking heavy draughts Of
cold water, drink as little as possible.
The said Rober. Blackwo has proved by ex.
pertinent that this remedy has cured several per.
sons who were entirely given out by all the best
doctors ia this section will mention the case OF
Mrs. Thompson, near Chapel Hill. She was at
the point of death, unable to support herself in
her bed, who is now in as good health as she ever
was Also. Mrs. Hatch, still near neighbor, who
was very low with the consumption, and Is now
in perfect health. In the case OF Mr.. Ihompson's
wife, DR.. Yancey considered her ncurabc and
pronounced her lost. l feel confident that by
close application i, viii cure perhaps ninety nine
in hundred.
U-Mr Blackwood thus offers the receipt to all
who may bo disposed to make trial OF II and II
il should effect a cure as he has no doubt It VIII,
he only asks in such case such compensation as
their sense of justice may dictate.
Papers throughout the United States will render
great service to those who are afflicted with this
disease, by giving this publication.

The first experiment consisted in mixing
a certain proportion Of charcoal dust with

Cactus placed IN mixture Of equal parts

and attained double its former size in the

TEYAS AND MEX1CO.

We would publish, if we could spare the
space, the interesting Correspondence be-
tween Gen. Hamilton and Santa Anna; but,
as We have not, the gist Of the matter may
be thus briefly stated: On the recent re-
turn of Gen. Hamilton from Europe, he ad-
dressed a Communication 10 Santa Anna,
President Of Mexico, marked " Confdc1
nal" offering Mexico, on behalf of Texas,
SIS ,000,000, besides 200, 900 dollars secret
service money, if the former would enter
into "treaty Of peace and limitation =
with the latter. Santa Anna published the
communication of Gen. Hamilton in the
Mexican puners, with an angry reply, IN
which he makes strong threats OF what
Mexico can and will do to Texas. Gen.
Hamilton replies through the Charleston
papers in tone Of defiance, which closes
as follows: IS GU accuse me of the impu-
dcncc of Offering YOU silver. | will not be
guilty of the gascouade Of offering you steel:
but when you do come, hope lmay hear
the neighing of your war steed on the
Banks of the Rio Bravo"
Santa Anna seems indignant and yIndic-
tive at the treatment he received from the
Texans few years ago when a prisoner
among them. He is very confident that
had it not been for Mr.. Austin and Mr.
Houston he would have been shot, and he
is now determined to have revenge for the
jeopardy Of life in which he was put at the
