COlIetOn Bittea.s.

uSHESE Bttcrs are purely a vegetable com
u pound, and are offered 10 the public from
principle Of benevolence under the fullest convic
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
remedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium-
phantly tested, not only by some Of the most re-
spectacle families and physicians in the State OF
South Carolina, who have furnished ample testi-
mony as to their decided excellence, but also by the
proprietor who for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease.
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Btters, of not proving injurious by
tinued use. They contain not single deeterious
ingredient, and, from the directions which
accompany each bottle. may be given with entire
safety to an infant in the month.
II affords very great pleasure to have il in my
power to state that have found the Colleton Bit
ters," made by you. highly beneficial remedy
for Dyspepsia. gave them fair trial IN the early
part of last spring, at which time | became much
distressed from that complaint, in consequence OF
the sedentary life which the duties Of my avocaton
compel me to lead and must say, that among the
many prescriptions have at different periods, made
use of, have found none that suited my system SO
well when laborng under the disease. | believe
have used in the last eight ten years almost all
OF the popular remedies, but none have produced
the same sautary effects that have experienced
from the "Collcton Bitters." | have generally
found the remedies commonly rcsortcd to greatly
deficient in what consider the chief virtue Of your
bitters mean the quality they possess Of strength
enlng the digestive organs, while at the time
they act as All aperent. So convinced am Of their
excelIency, that ain never without them. Indeed
find them indispensable, inasmuch as they in a
great measure supersede the necessity Of my taking
much exercise due regard to health would ro-
quire, but which my present engagements DO not at
all times allow me to take. The good effects have
experienced from them warrant me then IN recon-
mending them to all persons whose occupations and
habits are Of sedentary and studious nature as
well az to those who are suffering from weak and
impaired digestion.

We make the following extract from
Mr.. Criltenden's remarks in the Senate
on the 9th:
Mr.. G. said such spectacle as the coIn-
try exhibited the world had never seen.
The country was in a state of happy pros
periiy and in profound peace. The Ad-
minstIation had made war that tbey might
get back the peace. After getting into a
war which required all the resources we
could raise, they reduced duties to increase
the revenue. They had been digging
vaults and cellars, putting on locks and
bars TO keep the hard cash of the treasury,
and yet they were passing a bill To issue
floods of paper money. Had any nation,
since the foundation Of The world, witnessed
management like thisl We had peace, and
then we went To- spending millions to con-
quer peace. We first put all our money
into strong boxes, and locked up all the
specie. and issued treasury drafts and treas
ury notes without end. Gentlemen here
were working mos: diligently to fulfil the
DEGREES Of the Baltimore convention, while
they utterly disregarded The petitions and
memorials of the people. Then we had
great disputes among the faithful as to what
was not promised. All these questions
about iree-irade and subireasury, Oregon
&c., were but so many empty barrels
which had been set afioat on the stream ol
the late Presidential election. they an
swcred that purpose, and now, for God's
sake, let gentlemen throw them overheard.
As for the Sub-Treasury, he believed that
was overheard already Let gentlemen
throw the rest after il, and then set them
selves diligently to do the public business
and 90 home.

MeJ'a' who succeeded Arista in the com.

Gen. Armio, the commander Of the army
IN New Mexico, had notified the Govern.
ment OF the approach of Gen. Kearney's

Reports arrived on the 9th, that eight
Thousand American troops were marching

Accounts had been received that Gen.

through the country.
The city of Camareo (San Louis Potosi)
was totally destroyed by inundalion. Seven
hundred and nine houses were destroyed,
and but four left standing.
The American squadron at lsla Verde

of taking in water. The frigates Cumber-
land, and Potomac. and the steamer Mis-
sissippi, anchored al the mouth Of the river,
and the pilot boats. at Anton Lizards,
where there was sloop of war at anchor.
The steamer returned 10 Isla Verde on the
31st. The sloop Of war St. Nary's, and
the brig Porpoise, remained cruising within
sight OF Vera Cruz. Tho Captain of the
steamer Dee says the United States frigate
Cumberland had run aground near Alvara-
do, and had to take off the artillery to ena-
BILE her TO float. The ship was so much
damaged that she could not proceed on her
voyage.

Rose, were the only foreign vessels OF war

CoMEUsrION OF THE WILLOW TREE.-
The fact oi trees being subject to sponiane-

al phenomena, which can only be explain
ed by the scientific. We read in late

have exhibited an unusual number of these
cases, occurri " principally in growing viii

4drer,ics-, Ito look upon 4 fine willow, in
the full vigor of robust vegetable health,
pouring forth clouds OF smoke from its half
burnt stem, and doomed speedily to ex-
pire-iiself lis own funeral pile. How ex-
plain thisl How account for the fact that
this tree, yeI hale and green, covered with
a rich mass Of foliage. and fiourishing like
a green bay tree on the river bank
should suddenly burst forth into ignition,
burn like tinder To lis very core, and TO
morrow be prostratedl There is no puirues

in this process. If instances Of sponta-
neous vegetable combustion thus frequent
ly happen, why dispute the analogous case
Of spontaneous animal combustionl The
tree which we observed last week, as
stated above, is now prostraie-its very
