Spcnccr's Vegetable Pills,

HAVE now been before the public for the
III last fourteen years, and have stood the beS.
OF all tests, thorough trial. The proprietor of
this celebrated medicine did not in Offering it
to the public, make out a catalogue of all the
complaints TO which they are applicable, but
only those in which there was abundant evi-
dence TO prove their practical effect on the hui
man system nor was this evidence Of q fcti-
lious character, nor obtained by mercenary
means; on the contrary, it is the voluntary tes-
timony of persons, male and female, OF the first
standing in our State. Its original object was
10 cure the headache only, and other complaints
were added to the list as evidence was afforded
of their efficacy. As no directions accompany
! the Pills for cough or bowel complaints, and
having the evidence at hand please attend to
the following If there has been a run of the
bowel complaint for several days and especially
if attended with the dangerous symptoms of
pains and bleeding, dose OF four pulls, taken
on going 10 bed, will remove the difficulty in
the bowels, relieve all pain and restore the ma
tural habit. In nine cases out Of ten this mode
of treatment has been found ellectua and in
but few cases has the second dose been requir-
ed.
/ For a cough the pills should be taken at
night, in moderate doses, to produce a laxative
only, as much action on the bowels would pre-
vent the alternative effect, which is most valua.
BILE. This mode OF treatment has also been
known to cure all kinds ofScrofula, cancers hui
morS, &c. They never fail to insure good
nights rest they will cure a cough sooner
than any other medicine of which have any
knowledge, and will not produce any bad effect.
The Pills are, what they purpor to be, pure
y vegetable medicine, and not the smallest
possible danger need be apprehended from their
use they require no change OF diet, they are
calculated to make better without first making
worse. For further particulars see directions
which accompany the medicine.

Late and Important from Santa Fe.

Murder Of some americans Coniem-
plated Insurrection--Burning Of Los Has.
The news from the Far West is, that a.
bout the last Of June the Mexicans stole
horses of Capt. Homie's company, and that
Lieut.. Brown and three men who went in
pursuit of them, never returned. Major
Edmondson, in command at Los Vegas,
with small force, marched to Los Was, a
little town frequented by robbers, and burn
ed all the houses where stoled goods were
found, killing some ten Mexicans and
wounding others. Fifty Mexicans were
taken prisoners. Letters were found daily,
proving that general insurrection was at
hand. 1t is also stated that thirty men, of
Capt. Morris company, were attacked by
two hundred Mexicans, while grazing cat
tie, eighteen miles from Don Fernandez,
and that FIVE Americans were killed. 1t is
greatly feared that the whole Santa Fe
country will be in a state Of insurrection,
unless o fresh supply Of troope arrive soon.

Scott Soup for the Tories.

The following letter from Gen. Scott is
in answer to couple of tory priests. Old
Lundy's Lane peppers this dish pretty high.
y for tory stoinachs, and we fear that unless
be is mighty cautious he will bring down
upon his head O tornado of abuse from
his former political associates. He CON-
mitted one almost objectionable sin, in the
eyes offederalism, when he told the Mexi.
cans, what every one Of these tories knows
to be true, that this war was brought about
by those who year ago ruled over them.
But the following letter is heavily charged
with "grape and canister:

Further from oregon.

Mr.. Hubbard, from whom we derived
our lntest intelligence from Oregon, has fa-
vored us with copy Of the Oregon s pee
tafor.
The Orsgonians are determined to have
a steam tow-boat, SO that vessels may be
brought up the Columbia river with safety.
The currents are strong, and sail vessels
cannot depend on the winds to stem the
currents. The appropriation made fol the
year was So, 600, which will increase the
Territorial debt to $4,000. The follow
ing Territorial officers were elected by the
Legislature: Frederick Prigg, Secretary Of
the Territory; Alonzo A. Skinner, Circuit
Judge; ii. NJ. sKnighton, Marshal; John
II. Couch, Treasurer; George w. Bell,
Auditor. a@s s.e
A memorial to Congress states that Ore
gon can already furnish, at short notice,
fvo thousand barrels of flour for the use of
our Pacific squadron, three thousand bar
reis Of beef ard two thousand of pork. Lum-
Der, tar, pitch, fax and hemp can be here
[snfter supplied, il a demand should be Gre
.ated for them. Il nsks for confirmation oi
locations already made, for grants of land
for educational purposes, and for steam
tow-boat on the Columbia; and recommends

down the river FIVE months of the year, and

easily overcome by steam, aud large

Something wrongq The order of thinls
seem to us about the same las8 usual. The
next paper we picked up after reading the
above we noticed a reward of ten dollars
for faithless wife and FIVE other slope-
ments of the same sort. The matter on.
either side is bad enough and many times
could be avoided would the chosen park
ners instead Of obstinacy dwell on the rs-
collections Of youth, and cherish the dear
idea Of that tunefnl time, awake and keep
alive the promises she then kindly gave;
and though she may be the injured, not the
injuring one-the forgotten, not tho forgot

love-a kindly welcome to comfortable
home-a smile Of love TO Danish hostile

itself within the breast of selfish man will

we have added rough estimate Of val.
ues for the purpose of giving another view
of the immenseness of this vast trade. What
if the home market had been compelled to
swallow all this produce. Lowell would
have felt q new expansion. The home
market cnn do nothing with our surplus
products. We know that, TO oil these facts,
il is replied that famine caused an unpre-
scedented demand. So it did. But the
benefit is not the less due to FREQ trade on
that account. Foreigners never buy Of us
unless for some cause they ,oaa, what we
have to sell, and 1t is always the liberty Of
trade, not by its restrictions, that we are
able to supply their wants, however caused.
1t is liberty. NOT protection which gives na-
tions the benefit of mutual trade What
ever may cause the demand, il Is trade
which supplies it. The famine might have
been ever SO intense, and ye: but for liber-
ty to trade, we should not, as any one can
see, have sold one bushel of corn on that
account. A thousand causes may create
demand, it is liberty of trade alone which
supplies it.
Ii is impossible to sayewhata all this pro.
duce would have been worth, il the laws of
England and the States had not been chang
ed. We know that before the change, for
one or two years, cheese was sold for hog
food, and the pork afterwards was only
worth bringing to market within short dis
tances. This vast expansion of our agri-
cultural prosperity, twist and turn it how
we may, is the result of new condition of
laws and opinions in the world. Our far
mers will not allow the new movement to
turn backwards.-Joawnat Of Commerce.
