For many years, whilst engaged in the prac-
lice of my profession, have frequently observed
much injury done from the improper admins
tration Of medicine, with view to cXpel worms
from The human system; and that al a time when
the little sufferer was very unable to bear such
harsh treatment; giving drastic, and quite too ac-
tive purgatves, worm teas, sc. SC. which Oft
times will produce great suffering, and lay the
foundation for a disease which would be much
more difficult 10 eradicate than that produced by
Worms.
1t is much to be regretted, that thousands are
swept off, or rendered weak, pale, and cmacia-
ted, in their early stages Of existence, and Hier
constitutions undermined, aud a foundation laid
for pulmonary diseases, sc. sc. entirely from i'm
proper treatment. Worms being especially liza

Of treating.-whch generally consists of the
most active purgativcs; end further, it has been
proved by actual experiment, that Worms VIII
exist for a long time, even when they are thrown
into a solution of most of the common pfcpara-
tious which are used for the destruction of those
animals; whereas, it has been rs fully proven that
in the preparation which offer to the public,

discharged giving new and healthy action to
the whole Aimcntary Canal, and all Without the
least Inconvenience to the sufferer.
Worms are capable of producing great distur-
bancc in the system; not only do they aggravafe
all ordinary diseases, but they also give rise to
great variety Of very alarming and anomalous
affections Indeed, the whole train otsPasmodic
and convulsve diseases, may proceed from the
irritation of Worms in the Alimcntary Canal
Cholera, Epilepsy, Catclepsy, Tetanus, Paralysis,
Mania, and Commissions, as well as variety OF
Nervous Affections, are not unfrequently the cf-
feet Of this cause.

JOHN BULL LOOKING TO THE PkAIRIEs
FOR BEEF AND MUTToN.-It will be seen BY
the following extract from The Perth Adver-
tiser, that the lovers of fine beef and mutton
in England are looking anxiously TO this
country for full supply of these important
items Of good English dinner:
FOREIGN HAMs.-A bur:el of American
sailed beef imported into Dundee under The
new tariff, was brought TO Perth on Mon
day, by an Individual belonging to this place,
who sold it The same day at Sd. per pound.
The meat is said TO be of a good quality,
fat, and well favored. We believe that a
regular supply of this novel commodity. will
soon be obtained in this quarter. We are
informed that a quantity of American NUT
ton hams have also been sold at Sd. per
pound.
American "mutton HAMS" from sheep fed
on the prairies, NAV be imported and sold
here Mt 81. per pound, leaving a good prof.

cheap? by no means-provided our taxa
lion be reduced to the scale paid in foreign

MORE OF THE EARTHoUAKE-Later pa
pers from the West India Islands have been
received by the Commercial Advertiser Civ
ing interesting particulars of the terrible
desolation effected by the earthquake of the
9Th ult. The rumor which first reached
us by the way of Baltimore of the sad de-
struction of life at Point a Petre, will be
seen to have been but slightly exaggerated.
A St. Croix paper of the 10th says that at
Point Petre, in Guadalupe, 6, 200 persons
had disappeared, and that the bodies of A.
900 had been dug out of the ruins and ia
ken out to sea, to prevent pestilence. OF
800 soldiers forming the regiment quarter
cd there, only 40 survived. Bright and
successive volumes of flame were seen to
issue from the island by vessel passing at
the time of the earthquake; so that it is
supposed, with strong ground of probabili-
ty, that the destruction of the island had
its origin in the eruption of Volcano
The fertilization were heap of ruins, and
the mouth of the harbor was so completely
choked up by rocks forced up from the bot
tom of the sea, that it was feared the ships
there could never be removed. The Cap
tain of the schooner Ellen, arrived yester-
day from St. Thomas, reports that the U.
S. Consul at Point Petre was so severely
injured that he survived but short time
The town and harbor had both been put
under martial law, to prevent their being
plundered
AT Antigua the shock was very severe
though only ten lives were lost. Almost
every windmill, steam engine, sugar works,
&c. were destroyed, the churches, chapels,
custom-houses, jails and other public bull
bings were almost ruined, and the loss of
property is supposed to amount to several
millions ofpounds. The canes in the fields
must be sacrificed for want of mills to grind
them, and there is said to be scarcely a
building on the island left uninqured. The
catastrophe was preceded by rise of the

Beauties OF LocoFoco FINANCIERING.-
Every body knows, or ought TO know, that
an English gentleman, named Smithson,
made a large bequest n few years ago TO
the U. States, for scientific purposes. Well
the money was received all in gold. OF
this money, the then Locofocc Secretary Of
the Treasury (Levi Woodbury. gave half a
million in gold to the locofoco State of Ar
kansas, and took her bonds at par. A. Ii.
Sewer Qocofoco U. S. Senator) and F. T..
Williamson, were the agents of Arkansas
in this business. They delivered the paper
bonds, took the gold from Woodbury., and
sold it, of course for large premium, for
Southern and Western bank notes, and put
the premium in their own pockets. In ad
dtion TO that, Sewer charged $4,000 for
his services, and Williamson $4,000 for his,
and they paid a Washington broker, who
was their agent, $4,000 out of the fund
lraned $4,000 more to sundry New York
hrokers-and Seyier then appropriated Sl4,-
800, and williamson Sl4,094, each TO his
own use. as further compensation for setvi-
ces The upshot Of TIE matter is, that
Sewer and Williamson lined Their pockets
and that the Government has now to look
10 Arkansas for the pay. Arkansas put the
money in the vaults OF the Arkansas Bank,
and thar bank has now but $4,000 OF spe-
scies IN IFS vaults VI. lFatchmdR.
