T is well known that diseases often arise from
a foul and disordered state of the stomach and
bowels; and if this condition is promptly attended
to and relieved, that health will be Immediately
restored. And nothing more effectual can be re-
sorted to than two or three good active doses of
purgative medicine; and there is nothing more
suitable than pills of proper character. The
public have in these vegetable pills the article pre-
sented to them, which possesses the qualities cal
culaied to render the most important service IN
cleansing the alimentary canal; they will operate
with sufficient force. and still with ease safety;
there is no Ingredient in them that will render
them dangerous as to taking cold, or cause any
particular care in diet necessary. They have been
used by the proprietor with abundant success in
extensive medical practice for many years.
He can therefore confidently recommend them
TO the public patronage. 1t is not vany pretend
ed that they will cure all diseases, but they will
answer the purposes for which they offered as
we'll as any purgative medicine that can be produ
ced; and by being taken when that description OF
medicine is needed, may save person from threa.
tened disease at a very small expense and without
loss of time. A person can take them without
any interruption of his customary employment

the success Of the Democratic party in the United

declaration by the people Of the United States in ia
vor of the anne alton Of Texas. The ULited States

co TO Vera Cruz, met Santa Anna march at the
head OF considerable army, against Paroles, the
leader Of the revolutionary movement.

that the letters of Senior Rejon, the Mexican Minis
