The broad gauge adds to this appearance of solid

Late and Interesting from Venezuela.

We are indebted to gentleman who came p S.
senger in the bark Venezuela, at Philadelphia for
package of late papers. 1t was stated at Laguav-
ra, on the 10Th, that the port of Miracabo, which
had been held by Paezs friends, was captured by
Monagas. General Paez's fleet, anchored off the
bar, had disappeared. and 1t was thought by many
that the government fleet had captured it.
Much trouble is anticipated by the ,ming elec-
ton. II is apprehendcd ,ha. unless Monngas is
elected he will maintain his rigl to the Presidcn-
cy at the point OF the bayonsi
The U. 5. soop OF war Albany would remain ut

{ Ike place IN August. j. w. Curtis, Lieutenant of
t Marines, returned in the Venezuela
The neiebboring republic ot New Granada, has
be IN EVIL at drawn into the Venezuelan diff .u-
Il s. 1t seems that General Paez, when he tetred
from Venezuela, merely crossed the border into
New Granada, and took up his residence at San
f ON the boundary line. The Venezuelan Gov
eminent have demande that he should be forced
to retire. at least 30 leagues from the ironter. At
first there was some Discrimination on the part
Of the Grauadians to interfere; finally, however,
ders were directed to the Governors of the pro-
vinces Of Casanare and Pamplona, directing tn EN-
TO instruct General Paez and his adherents to
move to some other point farther removed from
| Venezuela We find the official account of the
taking of Maracaibo city by Monsgas's troops, on
the oath of May, published in the Caracas p.pers,
It seems they marched in without opposition.
Regarding the taking of the Fort of San Carlos.
in The immediate vicinity of the city, as stated
above all IS rumor; 1t is very strong fort, and,
well defended, could stand heavy siege. From
all accounts, we think that Monagas's party must
be carry ing everything before Them.
The British merchants and bankers resident In
Caracas, Laguayra and Puerto Cabeo, in April
last addressed memorial to Mr. b. II. Wilson,
the British Charge d'Afaires, protesting against
the measure passed in Congress on the 2ist April,
authorsing the issue Of government certificates to
the amount of five millions of dollars, which par
ties were to be forced to receive IN payment Of
detts, or, by refusing them, be obliged to grant
their debtors one years respite. This clause the
merchants in their protest, apprehend will be of
most disastrous consequences to their interests,
and therefore protest against it manifest VIC
aton of the solcmnity of contracts made in virtue
| of, and accordance WITH previous laws of the
country. Mr.. Wilson answered, that he would
present the subject to the Venezuelan government.
The result of his presentment, however, is not
| stated in the pamphlet before us.
CONNIE rcial news IN these papers there is none.
We presume, however, that trade is much dis
| turbed at present in Venezuela.

WRIGHTsS INDIAN VEGETABLE
PILLS.

LIVERY day is :lis celebrated medi-
LIZ che extending the sphere ofits use
f%uIness, and every year adding to the long
catalogue of its triumphs.
AMILLION OFBOXES are distribu-
ted annually without fully meeting the
demand! For some time past, the sales
have been limited, solely for want offacil-
tiles of supply. Trnly this is a universal
remedy! Unheralded, these Pills have
found their way into the remotest corners
of the Union, every where proving their
title as THE POOR MANS FRIEND
SICK MANS HOPE-THE MAR
VEL AND BLESSING OF THE
AGE. For trifing sum, every indivl-
dual and every family may have Health
Insured to them for an indefinite period;
aud what is life without health but a mis-
cradle existence.
1t is too precious a boon to be tamper-
ed with, by trying NIL sorts of experiments
upon it. The sick should use those me-
dicines only which experience has shown
to be the best.
CURE FOR FEVER AND AGUE.

be in great demand lately for the cure Of
Fever and Ague. Mr.. James Boyd has
a son who has been laid up with fever and
ague, and had tried various other reme-
dies, all of which proved of no avail
He determined to try your Indian Vege>
table Pills, and by using one box he is
now well. Mr.. T. Spencer had a daugh-
ter, Mr.. Hugh Groves a son, and MIR. c.
Nichols and three of his family were all
down at the same time with fever and
ague, and had also tried various other re-
NEEDLES without effect. Your Indian We
getabIe Pills soon restored them to perfect
health. l can assure you, from what |
have seen, your Indian Vegetable Pills
may be relied or for a permanent cure
of fever and ague. Yours, respectfully,

FEVERS.

Fevers, like every other form o disease
are only an EFFORT OF NATURE to
expel from the body something that is op-
posed to headlight is merely a struggle be-
tween the good and bad bumors for sup
remacy, and the commotion which ensues
is called Fever. The usual symptoms
of a fever are heaviness, langonr, anxiety,
signing and yawning, with alternate fits OF
heat and cold. After which the patient
complains of pain in the head and back,
thirst, difficulty of breathing, pain in the
limbs, a sense of fulness about the region
of the stomach, nausea and sickness, with
sometimes vomiting of bilious matter.
Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills will be
found peculiarly adapted to the cure of
all kinds of Fever, because they not only
thoroughly cleanse the stomach and bow
els from all bilious humors, but they
open those excretory vessels which empty
into the bowels; and consequently the i'm.
purity contained in the circulation (which
is the cause of all disordered motions of
the blood called Fevers) is thrown into
the bowels, from whence it is carried off
by the regular alvine discharges.
In using Wright's Indian Vegetable
Pills for Fevers, the only care necessary
is to have the medicine operate copiousIy
by the bowels. If the symptoms are ur-
gent, from four to eight pills should be
taken night and morning until the fever
has subsidized, after which smaller doses,
once in t%wenty-four hours, will be sufi-
cient to restore the body to a state of sound
health. -
