A Broken Leg.

DR.. w. B. Sloan-Sir Having made use of
your Ointment for various external injuries OF
man and horse with invarfabfe success, most
cheerfully recommend it as the best article of
the kind I know. One of my horses was taken
with the grease heel which I soon cured with
Sloan's Ointment. Another was kicked and
a large hole made in the flesh. but was speedily
healed up by Sloan's Ointment. l had the mis-
fortune to break one of my legs, which sweBed
nearly as large as the skin would permit-was
very painful and black-and in two days by using
the Ointment the swelling went down and the
pain ceased. We used it also for polypus. burns.
cuts, j ans, and other cases in the family with in
variable satisfaction. I have known spavins and
other serious complaints in horses cured by my
neighbors, who recommend it in the highest
terms. PAUL S. BROWN.

0G CONSUMPTION is one of the most fatal
maladies that aflict the human race. Thousands
of people die annually of this complaint. 1t has
been supposed incurable. but Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry has proved itself a certain antidote
for this terrible disease in Its i~ncipient stages.
TIL delicate structure which is the seat of this
disease is the prime supporter OF life It is a frail
tissue, hence. easily destroyed. When attacked
with acrid humors that many causes may origin
ate. immediate use should be made of Wistar's
Balsam of Wild Cherry to arrest the work of de-
struction, and it is important to pay attention to
the, first
SYMPTOMS-which are, often a cold, then a
dry cough. disposition to vomit after eating. pain
and oppression of the breast, especially after mo-
ton. spittle frothy of a saltish taste, sometimes
tinged with blood, sadness, bad appetite. unusu-
al thirst. These should receive immediate at

Galveston dates OF the ed have been re.

gold accounts are fully confirmed. The

gentleman from Hockhart, that a party Of
citizens who had just returned from an ex-
ploring expedition, found gold in the noun.
tains 10 miles north west ofthat town, both
on the surface and by digging. They
brought back several Jumps, all Of which
were valued at $3.50. The Austin Ga
zette. which has heretofore been incredu-
lous, fully indorses the most favorable re-
ports, saying it can no longer entertain
the least doubts, and expects to hear OF
discoveries equaling the California mines.
The deeper the digging. the more abun.
dant and the richer the gold. The prin-
cipal region is enclosed by the Colorado
on the east. the San Saba on the north,
and the Slave on the south.

Interesting from. Liberia.

The bark Shirley, Capt Smith, has ar
rived at Baltimore. from Liberia, with a.
cargo of palm oil. hides, &C.. TO DR.. James
Hall, agent of the Maryland Colonization
Society. Bishops Scott, ofthe NJ, E. Church,
came passenger, after a brief but pleasant
~sojourn in the new Republic. By this ar
rival we received files of the Monrovia
Herald down to the Cd of March, from
which we learn that the affairs of Liberia
are in a prosperous and thriving condi-
ton.
The emigrants are getting on through
their exclamation finely. Those OF the
''Oriole" from New York. excepting a
very few cases, had but a very slight at
tack, and they are new well and attending
to their several occupations.
President Roberts, while in England.
was kindly furnished with a good supply
of copies Of the Bible Tor the use Of the
Sabbath schools in Liberia.
Some idea may be obtained OF the val
ne of lands in Monrovia, from the fact
stated in the Herald. that five hundred dol
lars have been paid for own lots contain
ing a quarter OF an acre-and further, that
that sum will not purchase lots Of similar
size, in some parts of the city.
President Roberts left Monrovia on the
LIST OF March. with 200 armed men, under
Gen. Lewis, for Little Cape Mount, to ar.
rest Boombo, a chief, who has for a long
time been carrying on a predatory war in
that territory. 1t appears thar Boombo.
not satisfied in laying waste, with fire and
sword, the towns and villages in the Little
Cape Mount river. attacked and destroyed
several of the towns Of the i~noffensive Deys
murdered numbers Of the ~unsuspicious
inhabitants, and carried off hundreds into
captivity. lie also destroyed several OF
the factories Of the merchants. and the loss
in merchandise is very considerable. 1t
is said, that Prince George Cain, of Grand
Cape Mount, is deeply implicated with
Boombo. The mission Of President Rob-
berts. it is expected, will put an end to
these troubles.
The trade of Monroyia is rapidly in.
creasing. and during the last three months
about $4,000 worth of merchandise has
been sold. 1t is estimated that TO meet
the trade of the city during the next ten
months. nearly half a million Of dollars
worth of merchandise will be required. A
large number OF new brick buildings are
going up.
