Extract Of letter from Hon. T. II Bullion.
As | was musng over th2
| splendid and brilliant destiny that awaited me-
revaIing in the halls Of Montczumas, enjoying
with ecstacy the civic and martial wreath with
which my brow would be entwined by eclipsing
HE glorious achievements OF the great Fernando
Coftez, my spirit suddenly became too large for
Garth and my bodily structure was taken with a
strange enlargement as if TO rival in magnitude
! the spirit within; so rapid was the exageraon Of
my physical proportions that my skin would no
longer hold me. 1t split open on the back and
| seemed to be coming ont OF myself or rather
mysel! seemed to be coming out Of me, like a
bug from his shell or worm from its chrysalis.
The skill Of the metropolitan faculty was ex.
hausted and it seemed likely that | should soon
be SO large that like the books spoken Of by the
evangelist the world would not hold me, when
a friend put into my hand, your advertisements;
'syrup Of humbugs," said Humbugs!-why
there is virtue in the very name. The gold was
paid for bottle and it was Immediately smeared
over my huge dimensions. At once began to
shriyel and in less than no time, was ''no big
ger than Tom Thumb" but still felt that the
"bIood Of the Celt was in my veins" and here
was new dilemma, how was to reassume my
natural proportions? | then had recourse to my
skill. then deluted your syrup with solution
of the yellow mint drops and salt in aqua regia
applied it and at once Orchard was himself
again" with more Of the spirit II possible which
corresponds in name 10 your admirable syrup
Than ever.

The President was so well pleased with
Col Doniphan for the bravery, galantry
and skill which he displayed in his late ex.
petition, that he was very DESTROYS he
should be appointed to the command of the
battalion lately raised to operate against
the Indians on the Santa Fe trace. On this
wish being made known to Col. ID. he al
once declined the proifered honor. bu,
warmly recommended Maj. VIM. Gilpin
for that post, who we understand has been
chosen by the battalion their leader.
