TT IS WRITTEN

In the book Of nature and Of common sense, that
the natural vegetable productions Of every country
are if properly applied, amply sufficient for the cure
of every malady incidentto each peculiar climate.
WRiGHT's IaDIAE VEGETABLE PILLs Of the North
American College OF Health, are composed of plants
which grow spontaneously on our own soil, and are
therefore better adapted to our constitutions than
medicines concoctedfrom foreign drugs, however well
they may be compounded; and as they are founded
upon the principle that the human body is in truth
subject to but one disease, viz: corrupt humors and
that said medicine cures this disease on natural prin
cPes by cleasing and purifying the body it will be
manifest, that If the constitution be not entirely ex-
hausted--a perseverance in their use according 70
directions is absolutely certain to drive disease OF
every name from the body.
When VIC wish to restore a swamp or morass to
fertility we drain it Of the superabundant watersj
in like manner II we wish to restore the body to
health we must cleanse it Of impurity.
WRIeuT's INDIAN VEGETABLE Pills will be found
one of the best If not the very best medicine in the
world for carrying out this grand purifying principle,
because they eXpe from the body oil morbid and
rupt humors the of disease in an easy and nat
ura monner and while they every day give ease and
pleasure, disease Of every name rapidly driven from
the body
The following highly respectable storekeepers have
been appointed agents FOR the sale of Wrights Indi-
an Vegetable Pills, of whom Il is confidently belicv-
ed the genuine article always with certainty be
obtained.

tinancier as Mr.. Walker. Does II not strike
any man as singular state of facts, that al
though the locofoco papers are boasting oil
over the country that the Government had sold
10 millions Of bonds at one time, her credit
ors in New Orleans have to take their pey in
drafts at five days sight, which Of course, must
be sold at discount to realize The cash. On
the 10th April this loan was taken, and now
these drafts have to be sold to Banks in New
Orleans, to raise money to pay the soldiers
who have returned from the war. Some Of
them are detained for weeks, before they can
be paid of, and all for no other purpose, that
the people can see, than to enable these bro
kers to sell bonds and realize the funds. If
the loan is taken and paid in, this state Of
facts cannot exist. Why is it not paid in or
required at once? Echo answers why! The
people will find out in good time, perhaps
when the Secretary retires from ofiice.-Tteks-

From The RIazos.

The brig Henry, Capt. Cole, arrived last
night, from the Brazos, and by her we received
the Monterey Pioneer, Of the 9th, and the Ma.
tamoros Flag of the 18th inst. We find moth
ing of particular interest in these papers, res
pecting the army. The former contains the
despatch of Canalizo, Santa Annals second in
command, in which he pretty plainly acknowl.
edges a complete route. We give some othel
extracts. We could not get our letters. We
presume they are in the schooner Sea, that SAIL
ed in company with the Henry on the goth
and has the T. S. mail on board.
The remains of Lieut. r. L.. Moore, of the
Ist Mississippi Regiment, who was killed al
the battle Of Buena Vista, was brought over
from Brazos Santiago, on board Of the Henry
under charge Of Col. c. E. Smedes and ]. E.
TspPan.
We learn from a gentleman, who came pas
senger. that Lieut.. Col. Randolph, of the Vir-
ginia Regiment, had captured, on the 9Th INST,
at China, 10 Of Csnsle's men.

The Trophies of war.

The Trophies of War are thus described in a
letter from Vera Cruz, to the Auburn Adver-
tiser. The writer presents truly and without
exaggeration, one Of those scenes in the pro-
gress of War which General Taylor says is
'senough to fill The Whoie land with mourning.r
"Neyer had beheld such destruction OF
property. Scarcely house did pass that did
not show some great rent made by the burst
ing of our bomb shells. At almost every
house at which paused TO examine the des-
truction occasioned by these dreadful messen-
gers of death, some one of the family (if the
house did not happen to be desertedJ would
come to the door, and, inviting me to enter,
point out her property destroyed, and with a
pi,iful sigh exclaim, ala Bomba! La Bonsba p
THE bomb! Ny hear; ached for the poor
creatures.
"During my peregrinations, came to a lofty
and noble mansion in which terrible bomb
had exploded, and laid the whole front of the
house in ruins. While was examining the
awful havoc created, a beautiful girl Of some
seventeen came to the door and invited me into
the house. She pointed to the furniture of the
mansion torn into fragments, and the piles Of
rubbish lying around, and informed me, with
her beautiful eyes filled with tears, that the
bomb had destroyed her father, mother, BROTH
er, and two little sisters, and that she was now
left in the world alone! o wsr! wsr,--xhO

Mr.. WEBSTER AT CHARLEsToN.-The follow
ing is extracted from the published accounts
of the dinner to Mr.. Webster, by the bar Of
Charleston:
1.-THE circles Of social intercourse are, OF
course closed against discussion and debate,
and l should be ashamed 10 be thought capa-
BILE of obtrudiDg my own political opinions on
those who surrounded me on such occasions
"Gentlemen, allow me to tell you Of an in.
cdent. Al Raleigh gentleman purposing to
call on me, asked his son, lad, if he did moi
wish to 60 and see Mr.. Webster. The boy
answered, SIS it that Mr. Webster who made the
spellingbook land sets me so many hard les
sons ?-if that is the man, never want to see
him as long as live.'
SNOW, gentlemen, | am that Mr.. Webster,
who holds sentiments, on some subjects, NOT
altogether acceptable, am sorry to say, to some
portions of the South. But set no lessons
make no spellingbooks. If l spell out some
parts Of the Constitution of the United States,
in manner different from that practssd by
others, readily concede, nevertheless, to all
others, a right to dsclaim my spelling, and
adopt an photography more suitable to their
own opinions, leaving all to that general pub
lie judgment, to which we must in the end,
all submit.n
Mr.. Webster then feelingIy and touchngly
took leave of the company; and retired, in the
midst Of three times three, from the gratifed,
the delighted sssemblage.
Gen. Hamilton, as SION as Mr. Webster con-
cluded, and was retiring, rose and remark ed
that although their estimable guest had refused
to publish any Spelling Book, or Easy Readers,
for young beginners, yet, on that gentIeman's
departure he could not refrain from offering
the following toast:

remarkable Prophecy.

| Mr.. Poinsett has communicated to DeBow's
Commercial Review, some papers on Mexico,
Of remarka able credit. In the number for May
is contained the following striking prophecy
"The Spanish minister, Count de randa,
after signing the treaty OF Paris in 1888, sub
mttedto the King secret memoir in which
he declares the independence of the British
Colonies fills his mind with grief and fear, and
expresses his belief that both France and SPAN
acted in opposition to their interests when they
espoused the cause of the Colonies. He re-
CARDS the existence of the United States of
America as highly dangerous to the Spanish
American possessions and on this subject uses
the following remarkable language:
"This federal republic is a born pigmy, il
l may be allowed to express myself. It has
required the support of two such powerful
States as France and Spain to obtain its inde-
pendence. The day will come when she will
be giant, colossus formidable even to those
countries. She will forget the service she has
received from the two powers. The liberty
Of conscience the facility Of establishing a
new population upon immense territory to-
gether with the advantages Of new govern
ment, (meaniug free.) will attract the agricul-
turists and mechanics of all nations, for men
will ever run after fortune; and in few years
we shall see the tyranical existance Of this
very colossus of which | speak.
"The first step of this nation after it has be-
come powerful, will be to take possession of
the Floridas, in order to have command Of the
Gulfof Mexico, and after having rendered diff
ficult our commerce with new Spain, she will
aspire to the conquest Of the vast empire which
it will be difficult for US to defend againt
formidable power established on the same CONT
nent and in its immediate neighborhood.
"These fears are well founded; they must
be realized in few years if some greater rev.
olution even more fatal does not sooner take
place in our Americas"
In conclusion he proposes as the best
means of avertng this eminent danger, that
Spain should relinquish the Americas and es-
tablsh three Of the infants, one to be King of
Mexico, one Of Peru, and the other Of Costa
Firma, retaining under the dominion Of the
mother country only Porto Rico and Cuba;
and recommends that treaty Of commerce
should be entered into between France and
Spain, in relation to these countries, from the
advantages of which Great Britain should be
excluded.

Personal Responsibility.

We do not know how far an editor Of q po'
litcal paper has right to go in his remarks
upon a candidate for political office in Madi'
son county. One Of the candidates, the would
be Senator, labors under the delusion that be-
cause we let him alone during the last canvass,
and, as we believe, much to the injury oil our
patty, that we have now, in this canvass, no
right to touch him, even with 'tcn feet pole.'
And under this delusion he was kind enough
to give US warning, most publicly, that we
could not attack his private character again,
under the pain of his high displeasure and the
penalty of fuss We don't want fuss with
any body-and we never attack any mans Prl-
vate character. We do claim, and will exer-
else, the right of showing the unftness of any
man, big or little. nominated by caucus, or
self-nominated, for any office in the gift of the
Democracy, or Of the people If any candi-
date comes before the people they have the
right to know, and an editor tails in his duty If
he does not inform them, of the candidates fit
ness or unftness for the office to which he as
pires If he be an idiot, shall that not be
known to the people? If he be dishonest shall
not the editor give the information to those
whom the candidate desires to represent and
whose interests he undertake. TO protect!
And shall not, ought not, an editor, even under
the penalty of personal responsibility, to give
this information to the people? That is enough
to show that candidates private character
may and must be touched sometimes But,
we are wandering into general principles, in
stead of stating the particular case. We were
notified that we had attacked the private cha
racter Of the Democratic nominee for Senator,
Senator he never shall By; and what was the
specification? Why, quotation from the
elegy on the Madison Citizens' Corps, publish
ed fourteen months ago in the Creole, and
which has been in the mouth OF every boy in
Canton from that day to this; often heard by
him, and no exception taken to it. Some Latc-
yers may say that does not bar the Statute of
Limitations, because he was then made ridicu
lous in good company. Very well; is he not
in good company now? are the gentlemen
nominees, who are in the same article, not good
company! Let the advisers be as good law
yers as they may, we know one thing; they
do not understand the Common and Statute
Law of Mississippi as well as they ought.
In the words of Parson Howe we conclude
the rest Of our sermon next week.

"Durng the afternoon visited the hospital.
Here lay upon truckle beds the manglhd crea-
lures who had been wounded during the bonn
bardment. In one corner was poor, decrepid,
bed ridden woman, her head white with the
sorrows Of seventy years. One Of her wither-
ed arms had been blown off by fragment Of
q shell. In another place might be seen man-
gled creatures of both sexes, bruised and dis
figured by the falling of the houses and BURST
ing of the shells. On the stone floor lay lit
tie child in complete state Of nudity, with
one Of it's little legs cut off just above the
knee! The apartment was filled with flies,
that seemed to delight in the agonies of the
miserable creatures over whom they lowered,
and whose means were heart-rending.
~ went about from cot to cot, and attempts
ed to condole with the sufferers, by whom
was invariably greeted with kind smile
Not even this abode of wretchedness had been
exempt from the accused scourge of war! A
bomb had descended through the roof, and at
ter landing on the floor, exploded, sending
some twenty already mangled wretches to the
sleep that knows no waking
tsIn the course Of the afternoon the army
took possession Of the city of Vera Cruz, and
the streets were thronged with our troops
After visiting everything worthy of note, at
sunset returned on boerd, having received

i MExIco.-The advices from Mexico are no
at all indicative of any speedy settlement o
our difficulties, either by negotiation or militia
ry operations. There appears on the contra
ry, to be growing determination to prosecut,
the war on their part, routrance, and grea
effort will be made to rouse the people en- maasse
The Clergy of San Luis Potos have also full
minated most violent address to the people
imputing to our armies every kind of crime
and outrage, and attributing to them, the in
tention of destroying their religion by calling
upon all to rouse and revenge the country.
| Ell Republicano, on publishing this docu-
ment, preaces it with the following remarks,
and we greatly fear that the efforts to make this
religious war, will be too successful.
We have not space to give the address Of the
Clergy, which will be found in the Delta oil
yesterday. 1t contains even more than the or
binary share of Mexican exaggeration and mis-.
representation.
l send you printed sheet issued by the pre- i
lates and ecclesiastices, who have determined
to preach three days during each week, in or
enthusiasm. l hope that many will be indu-
ced to join the army through these means
! They have here 1000 muskets to arm them,
and also so pieces of artillery (among them
&c Of heavy calibre,) and the necessary am
muntion. The direction of operations will
be given to Genls Minon and Urea, who are
expected to arrive here soon; besides Don
Manuel Romero. Mejia, Amador, and other
chieftains, who will follow their brave comman-
ders We will have alage amount of '.guerr1l-
leros' in about month from this, and base
Of 1850 men which we now have here, will
facilitate the defence of the State with success.
The town of Catorce is now in course Of fortifi-
cations by order ofthe Governor, who will start
next week in order to examine the operations
in the neighboring towns. The States Zaca-
tecos, Guadalajara, Durango, Guanajuato, and
two others, (two names / do not recollect,)
will raise 5000 men in order to give assistance
to San Luis, in case the State should be attack
ed first or to detain the invaders should they
proceed first to Zacatecas and Durango. In
every case, San Luis will operate in concert
with the forces which may be raised; these
expect will be from to 5000 men in all.
"a general enlistment, to take place in for
ty-eight hours time, has been this day agreed
upon by the government, and this is in accor-
dance with the pfoclamations and exhor-
tations of the clergy, who will give the best
examples. A II this affords us hopes of saliva
ton. bove all, there is strong determination
here TO resist any treaties of peace which,
Mexico would wish to enter into with the sha-
ted Yankees" as it has been suggested in let
tiers of very late date from the capital."-Bui-
letin.
