distinguished for curing. By their counteracting
properties in removing the bile from the stomach
they prevent and cure the bilious fever; chis, OF

bilious choc; pleurisy; dysentery; worms; bilious
vomiting; sick and foul stomach.
BY cleansing the bowels and stomach from all i'm

All impurities in the blood yield to their happy
effects, whether proceeding from constitutional all

These celebrated pills have been used to very

They are an infallible medicine for female com

Whenever there is predisposition to receive

They are highly recommended to travellers by

without change of diet, and in situations where no

In 1911, the settlement at Astoria was made by
the Americans near the mouth of the river, and
several other posts were established In the interior
along its banks. The war Of 1912 between Great
Britain and the United States thus found the latter
in peaceabIe possession Of that region. Astoria
WIS captured by Great Britain during this war.
The treaty Of peace concluded at Client in Decem-
Der, 1914, provided that "a territory, places, and
possessions whatsoever, taken by either party from
the other, during the war; &C., &C., "shall be re.
stored without delay In obedience to the provi-
sions Of this treaty, Great Britain restored Astoria
to the United States; and thus admitted in the most
solemn manner, not only that it had been an Amer
lean territory or possession at the commencement
Of the war, but that had been captured by British
arms during It's continuance. II is too late to
gainsay explain AWAY these facts. Both the trea-
~ Of Ghent and the acts of the British government
under il, disprove the allegations of the British
pcnipotentiary, that Astoria passed "into British
hands by the voluntary act Of the persons in charge
of it," and "that it was restored to the United States
in 1918 with certain well-authcnticated reserva
tons"
In reply to the first Of these allegations it is tru,
that the agents Of the (American) Pacific Fur Compa
nv before the capture of Astoria on the 10th October
1918, had transferred all that they could transfer
the private property Of the company--to the Brit
ish) Northwest Company; but il will scarcely b
contcnded that such an arrangement could lmpai
the sovereign rights of the United States TO the ter
rtory. Accordingly, the American flag was still
kept flying over the fort until the LIST December
1913, when twas captured by his Majcsty's sloop
of-war Rackoon, and the British flag was then sub
stiLuted.
That it not restored to the United State
"wilh certain well authenticated reservations" full,
appears from the act Of restoration ITSELF bearing
date 9Th October 1918. This is as absolute and un
conditional as tie English language can make j,
That this was according to the intention of Lor,
Castlcreagh, clearly appears from his previous I'D
mission to Mr.. Rush Of the right Of the American
