These poisons may occasionally remove disea-

impregnate the whole system with their baneful
effects, that the first cold, or the first attack of
disease, prostrates the patients strength, and
subjects him or her TO the most excrutiating
torture, and renders another cure almost impos-
sible and hopeless. Let all poisonous Sarsapa-

and purely vegetable. All kind Of diseases yield

The Last Boston Notlou.

The Boston Journal thus refers to the self
sacrificing spirit of members of the editorial fra
ternity Of that city.
Editors are compelled to swallow "perilous
stuff" enough from political quacks, without
running the gauntlet of other patent nostrums
from the irregular faculty:
AN ACCOMMODATING EpToR.-The editor Of
the Bee putting popular medicine, says:
"We yesterday took a dose" of this syrup,
and find it to be a superior article"
1t is the generally received opinion that an
editors time and services are at the disposal of
every body who has invented or discovered any
article, whether it be new boot-jack' or a COM
pcated steam engine. But this is the first in
stance that we have seen recorded, in which he
has been called upon to take dose of medicine
Our neighbor of the Bee deserves credit for his
courage as well as for the spirit Of accommoda-
ton which he maniiests.

We find in the Toronto Globe, speech Of
Mr. THOMPSON, the English Abotionist, in which
he reports with great triumph the progress Of
his cause in this country--as follows:
Let US turn to the brighter side of the picture.
If there is slavery in the United States, there is
also anti-slavery. Ii there are those who pros
titute their talents and influence to the support
of slavery, there are those also who devote them
selves-tme, talents, property, health reputa-
ton, and ALTO the cause of the slave. lfthere
are those who pass fugitive slave bills, there are
those also who execrate those bills, and hold
them to be atrocious violations, under the name
of law, of every precept divine and human, point
ing to the duties which man owes to his fellow
man. The anti-slavery cause is advancing with
majestic strides. Its aspect is truly sublime
When was formerly in the United States the
Abolitionists were few, and therefore despsei !;
now, their name is legion. Now they speak,
and the legislature listens. Now they issue
their command, and it is obeyed Twenty years
of unceasng effort has made this the question
of questions. In the anti slavery ranks is to be
found intellect lofty as any to be found in the
ranks of slavery, and an amount OF moral cour-
age and indomitable zeal and perseverance, never
exceled in the prosecution of any other enter
prize, not excepting those of an exclusively re-
ligious character.

New Mexico.

The st. Louis Republican gives the following
unfattering picture of the present condition, and
prospects of this new acquisition.
"a gentleman now in this city has furnished
us with the substance of letter recently re-
ceived from his correspondent in Santa Fe. 1t
exhibits anything but a satisfactory state of af-
fairs in that territory. The Indians, it is said,
are arecompletey overrunning the country. 81 can
not get the aggregate Of all the stock taken from
the territory since the United States took pos
session, but can give you the amount from two
counties, Bernalillo and Santa Anna, viz Sheep,
l46,7l4; horses, 979; mules, 772 cattle ,30l
Valuing the sheep at 81 ,25 the horses at 800,
mules at $40, and cattle at $l5, per head, the
loss in these two counties amounts to $26l, i 81
So Since the above estimate was made, the
Navaioes have taken from Dr. Connolly $4,000
worth Of sheep more From the town Of Cor
rales the Indians about ten days since took all
the stock-from three to five hundred head OF
horses, cattle and mules. DR.. Connolly has
lost twenty-six thousand head Of sheep in all
and has but three thousand left. Don Jose
Chavis has lost forty thousand in all, leaving
about five thousand; and good many Others
have lost from five to fifteen thousand. have
list of all the sufferers, and the amount of ami
mails lost in that district Fifty-two thousand
head have been run off in the last year. At the
time of Connelys last loss, the pastores went to
a military post, and informed the commanding
officer of the facts A small party, under the
command of a sergeant, was sent in pursuit.
The pastore went as guide, but it having showed
after the sheep were run of, he was unable to
find the trail, and the sergeant gave him a severe
whipping, sent him off, and returned to his post" :"
It is added, that the people are afraid to inform
the officers Of these depredatons. This may
be so, but we are inclined to doubt it. There
is nothing in the character Of an American Off
Ger to justify any such presumption. They are
generally as prompt TO protect American property
and American citizens, as they would be to re-
venge personal insult, and we believe they
have shown themselves to be SO on every occa-
sion

FUGITIVE SLAVE CASE.

BOSTON, APKIL ,.
Mr. Curtis, the United States Commissioner
has deferred his decision in the case of Sims until
Friday.
The Abolitionist meeting at the fremont Tenn
Pile, continued in session yesterday, until late in
the evening. Hon. Stephen Phillips offered a Sc
ries Of ofresolutons, affirming the right OF fugtives
to the Habeas Corpus, and trial by jury under the
common law. The resolutions further declare
the Fugitive slave law to be unconstitutional, and
in violation of the rights Of freemen. Several
speed hes were made, and it was proposed to keep
the meeting up all night, but the announcement,
that the commissioner had postponed his decision,
induced them to adjourn.
