SECOND FOLCNE or TIE
SOUTHERN SENTINEL.

This journal is now in the second volume of its existence,
and with every indication of continued pr"spcrity-in fact,
its renovated and healthy appearance, must not only be
Conclusive evidence of its success and stability. but, the i'm
dersigncd trusts, likewise gives full surety that unremjttIn@
energy and industry have been ever present, not only in su-
perintrndiug its mechanical department, but in u%pLoIIing
and vjudicating those principles which the Wings claim as
the true foundation of our Republican institutions.
The present rigneltc at the head of the Sfntinf1 is sufi.
Gent evidence of the confidence that is reposrd in the hero,
now at the head of this nation, who took upon himself the
responsibility at the battle of Rucna Vista! His career so
far has been marked by decision, equity, ard goodness Of
heart, and with a determination on his part 10 act Is the Pre-
sidcnt Of this Republic, as the Constitution, circumstances
and requirements demand of him, the better TO secure the
advantage and pcrIancnce of those views and principles
as laid down in his Inaugural address. And having full
faith in The purity Of his enlightened mind, what care the
friends of ZACHARY TAYLOR for the hatred, ISLANDERS and
vituperation, so Indignantly ,capcd upon him daily by the
opposition press throughout the country9 undisturbcd as
the quiet lake by the mountain torrent that roaring leaps
into its peaceful bosom, viii be the Chief Magistrate of this
nation by the low, selfish and windy attacks of those who
have arrayed themselves as his opponents.
The Sentinel, as it will be perceived, is clothed in an entire
new dress, and having the advantage of being published in
about the centre Of the State, offers super ior advantages to
city advertisers, as a highly acceptable medium for bringing
their business (n either language) prominently before the
planters and other residents of the interior; and the I'M
dersigned hopes that his New Orleans friends, as well as
those at home, will continue to extend him those favors so
literally bestowed heretofore he will strive to deserve them.
As a Family Paper, the Sentinel will challenge its superb
or in the interior of Louisiana. Equally as the sentinel on
the watcitower of our political rights, will it be the guar
dian of that mora: tone and sentiment which give character,
dignity and safety TO a community, creating respect from
abroad, happiness and prosperity at home.

Also, Acting Justice of the Peace,

Fevers, like every other form of disease. are only
an Effort of Nature to expel from the body some-
thing that is opposed to Il health: 1t is merely a strug-
gle between the good aud bad humors for s1prema-
cy, and the commOlion which ensnes Is called fe-
vers. The usual symptoms of a fever are heavi-
ness, langnor, anxiety, signing aud yawning. with
alternate fits of heat and cold, After which The pa
tent complains of both pam in the head and back.
thirst, difficulty of breathing, pain in the limbs, a
sense of fuIress 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 stos
mach and bowels from all billions humors. but they
open those excretory vessels which empty INTO tn
bowels; and consequently the Impurlty contained N
the circulation (Which is the cause OF all dIsordercd
motions of the blood called fevers) Is thrown into
the bowels, from whence il is carried of by the re-
gular alvine discharges.
In using Wright's Indian Vegetable Pills for Fe-
vers, the only cure necessary is to have the medi
cine operate copiously by the bowels. If thesymp,
toms are urgent, from four to eight pills sEonld he
taken night and morning until the fever has subsi-
ded. after which smaller doses once in twenty-four
hours, will be sufficient to restore health,

MR. GAVAN DuFFY.

The Dublin Evening Packet, a rank tory
paper, says: The following letter, which we
copy from the Freeman's Journal, has been
addressed by Mr.. Duffy to committee of
gentlemen who, without his knowlede, I'M
dertook to raise fund for his future defence.
1t speaks the feelings of an independent,
high-souled man, who, whatever his political
transgressions may have been, and we seek
not to palate them, would scorn TO become
classed with those "public paupers'' who,
subscriptions to be raised for their benefit
Mr.. Duffy is ruined in fortune, we believe,
entirely, completely ruined. His health is
broken by long confinement and harrassing
anxiety. The once warm precincts of a hap
py home are cold and desolate now. And
yet, though in gaol, accused of heavy crimes,
having lost all almost that makes life desira.
bic, does not the following letter, we, his OPP
ponent, ask, prove Charles Gavan Duffy to be
a nobler man than any of those dedicated
beggars" who have exercised political leader
ship of late, and who have not been ashamed
TO relieve their "paltry poverty by a penny
craved from the ragged man, half-penny
dragged from the starving man!
Gentlemen-I am very grateful for the zeal
and considerate kindness which have infuen-
ced you in commencing the collection of a
public fund for my defence; but ask, as a
personal favor, that you will proceed no fur.

ton to coming before my country In that attl'
tude.
1t is question of feeling entrely-I con
denim nobody in the smallest degree who feels
differently | do not assert or assume tina
there is any principle whatever involved in it
but knoC that TO be public convict would
be less painful and intolerable position fo
me than to be public pauper.
1t is quite true, as some Of you have urget
upon me, that have lost my fortune in TIT
public service; but it is true also that | made
it in the public service; and true, moreover
that feel able and willing, now, as ever, Il
live, and support all who have claims upon me
by my personal industry, when am at liberty
