violent cold--caused by working in water, which
settled on my lungs 1t was accompanied by q
very severe pain in my breast and side, and also a
distressing cough. had in attendance allhe best
medical aid in our village, and after exhausting
their skill to no avail they pronounced my disease
confirmed Consumption, and one and all gave
me up to die. After much persuasion ! got the
consent ofmy physician to use Wisiar's Balsam OF
Wild Cherry prepared by DR.. Wstar. ! purchas-
ed OF the agent in our place one bottle, before u.s.
ing half of which, began to gain strength, and il
was very evident my cough was great deal better,
and my symptoms in every way improving.
have now used three bottles, and am restored to
health. The result is alone owing to the use OF
DR.. Wistar's Balssm of Wild Cherry, and take
this method of giving you the information, partly
to pay the debt of gratitude owe you, and partly
that others similarly afflicted may know where to
apply for relief.
Respectfully and truly youis,

"IIE first volume of the Journal and Review
IL is now completed. For many reasons we
feel greatly strengthened for the commencement
of the second. We are satisfied from the reception
of the work thus far that its merits appreciated,
and that the people of the South and West are fully
aware of the great benefit and credit that would
accrue to our magnificent country from literary
periodical of substantial and elevated character.
We at first projected such work, and believe the
Press both East and West approve the judgment
with which it is conducted. While one has pro-
nounced it second only to the "Southern Literary
Messenger" afforded at $5, another has declared
it inferior to meme in the Union. While one has
given it an equal rank with that sterling S5 work,
the "Knickerbocker," another has placed it infin-
itely above those splendid magazines which COM
mand the most popular favor. Ifsuch be the rep
utation of the Journal in its infancy we think much
more can be expected from its manhood. What
western man would not rejoice TO see a periodical
breathing the spirit and testing the power of the
western mind! Who does not acknowledge the
great benefit resulting from literary Journal that

A CRUSTY ONE The editor of the Hagers-
town News, himself an old bachelor, says: "No-
thing can prevent an increase of bacheorism, save
an amendment in the mode of educating women.
When they learn common sense instead of broken
French-when they learn some useful employment
instead of beating the piano-when they learn to
prefer honest industry to silly coxcombry, and
when men find that woman is helpmate instead
of a 'burthen. then we may expect to find fewer
bacbeiors-pot ill then"

else which does not involve grass moral obliquity,

1t should have taught US more even than this.
II should have graduated the relative value of

they have heretofore possessed, and should have
led them, long before this, to have effected rad
ical improvement in the whole system, which
should have strengthened the power to do good
and limited the influence to do evil More than

to the banks themselves, and to the government
also; leading to an entire separation-a complete
divorce between the banks and the government

But above all, and far more than all this impres.

DEPARTURE OF GENERAL ALMoNTK This Mcx-
can dplomatist has departed from this city in the
barque Anahuac, after having broke up the friendly
relations between this country and Mexico, on ac-
count Of the Texas question. Immediately on his
arrival IN Mexico, we may expect to see some
traces of his footprints in political affairs We
have no doubt that out Of the Texas question he
will endeavor to construct ladder to reach the
highest Office in the Mexican government, even at
the expense of rupture of the relations between
the United States and his own country His
whole policy has been directed to that purpose.
During his residence here, he has given indco tons
that his government would, at once, break up the
peaceful relations between the two republics; and
we have no doubt he has made preparations to
make this prediction fact as soon as he reaches
the shores OF Vera Cruz
