yvPiglas's Indian Vegetable Pills
or The Nora American College Of Healta

OF the NoTth American College ~ Hedst".
This extraordinary medicine is founded upon
The principle that the human frame is subject to
ONLY ONE DISEASE, viz: Corrupt Humors,
or in other words Impurty of the Blood, and notn-
ing save vegetable cleansing, is wanted IN order
to drive disease of every description from the bo-
dy.
IF the channels of our mighty rivers should be-
come choked up, would not the accumulated wa
tors find new outlets, or the country be inundated!
Inst so with the human body; if the natural drains
hecome closed, the accumulated impurities will
most assuredly find vent in some form Of disease,
or death will be a certain consequence.
WEIGHTS INDIAN VEGETABLEPILLS
are eminently calculated for carrying out this
GRAND PURIFYING PRINCIPLE, because
thew are purgative medicine so justly balanced
and uithal so natural to the human constitution,
that they cannot possibly njure the most delicate;
at the same time. if used in such manner as to
produce free evacuat;ons by the bowels, and re-
noated few times, it will be absolutely impossi-
BILE for pain or distress of any kind to continue IN
the BODY. A siagle twenty-five cent box OF the
above named Indian Vegetable Pills will IN all
cases. olive relief, sometimes even beyond the
power of words to describe, and If persevered IN
for short time there is not malady IN the
whole course OF human ills that can possibly with
stand their astonishing and wonderful influence.

THE CofrEH Rock Or LAKE SurfRtoh. This
celcbrated rock Of pure copper, which has caused
so much speculation among the scientific and
Others, arrived in this city on Thursday, on board
of the revenue cutter Erie Capt. Knapp. This
rock has attracted much attention since its dis
coyery about one hundred years since, and has
been described by Colcraft, (Schoolcraft,) Cass,
and others.
This rock has been brought from the shores
Of Lake Superior, through the enterprise and
energy OF MIR. julius Eldred, of Detroit, and is TO
be placed in the rooms Of the National Institute
at Washington. After several visits, and two or
three unsuccessful attempts TO remove 1t, Mr. +.
left Detroit on the 1lth June last, with appara-
tus and machinery, fully determined to bring
away this great mineral curiosity. After almost
Incredible efforts-being compelled to overcome
hill between fifty and sixty feel in height, they
at length reached the lake, having an effective
force OF tWenty-one men to assist in the removal.
1t was shipped on baard of the schooner Algon-
gum, and transported over three hundred miles
to the head Of the Falls Of st. Mary II was
then transferred TO Mackinaw boat, and, after
passing through the canal round the rapids, it
was shipped on board Of the schooner Brewster
for Detroit, where it arrived on the 1th of Oc-
tober. AT Detroit it was taken on board the
revenue cutter and arrived here ,as above stated,
in charge of Mr.. Eldred. We understand that
~ 40 ~ ue transferred 10 tne cars to-day, on us
way TO the place of its destination.
Mr.. F.. has presented US with piece Of the
rock, which faxed off in moving. It is pure
native copper, without alloy. And such is its
malleability, that it may be easily hammered
into any shape or form, without heating. Ell
The weight of the rock has never been def
nitely ascertained. 1t has been differently csi-
mated, by Colcrafi, al 5000 pounds, and he gives
it's dimensions at three feet eight inches long,
and three feet four inches broad. DR.. Houghton,
the State geologist for Michigan, who has had
good opportunities for forming a correct estimate,
is the largest specimen of native copper in the
world; and Mr.. Eldred assuredly deserves the
thanks Of the country for his interchangeable and
successful efforts to bring it forth into the civil
lied world.--Bufalo Gazette.

THE LATE CAPTAIN FOSTER OF THE
SANDY HOOK LIGHT SHIP. Nas

Captain Ebenezer Foster was formerly a ship
master out OF Boston, and previous to our war
with England, made several successful voyages
TO Lisbon. At the commencement of the war
he commanded the brig Patriot, and proceeded
thence with cargo OF -four, on the way was en-
countered by an English frigate that captured
him, took out his crew, and put on board prize
master and eight men, and ordered her to keep
company, leaving on board the captain, super
cargo, and cabinboy. On the second day a yio-
lent gale set in, and the frigate in the night sepa-
rated. Captain Foster now told Mr.. Mills, the
supercargo, if an opportunity offered, he intend
ed TO retake the vessel, and that he should ex-
pect him to do his best. The plan was therefore
fully concerted AS the gale became more des-
perate, the prizemaster consulted Captain Foster
rs TO what sail she would lay too under best
All the men were therefore put in requisition,
and sent aloft to reef The prizemaster took the
helm. Captain Foster (now gave Mr.. Mills the
watchword) by requesting him to 60 below and
get some corn to feed the fowls. He went down
the forecastle, crawlel over the barrels Of -four,
and delivered Captain Foster a pair Of loaded
pistols. Captain Foster then directed all the
weapons TO be thrown overheard, with the ex-
ception of two pair for himself and cabinboy,
which being done, he then pointed pistol at the
prlzemaster, directed him how to keep the vessel.
The vessel being now snug, he ordered the men
down from aloft, one by one, at their peril Of be-
ing shot, as fast as they came down. he tied
their hands behind them, put them in the fore
castle. including the prizemaster, secured them
in, and arrived at ST. Ubes in safety, sold the
brig Patriot and cargo at great price, then pro-
ceeded overland to Lisbon, a distance of about
eighteen miles, entered ntoan arrangement with
