We had wandered for MANY
hours through tangled forests of Tropical
shrubs and trees, some of them emitting a most
delicious and invgorating odor, when we sub
denly came upon large and we'll cultivated
plantation, in the center of which were seVerai
buildings. Entering these we found them TO
be the "press houses" stills, &c, where the
sugar cane is crushed for the manufacture OF
st. Croix Rum. Over 100 Coolies were at
work and the smell from the fermenting watts
was very exhiarating and pleasant. We were
,bown through the entire establishment, and
learned that all the Rum here produced was
shipped TO Messrs. p. Fl. Drake & Co., New
York, to be made into their celebrated PLAN
TATIoN BTrTERs. The peculiar good effects of
this RuS-whch is the purest and best in the
world, are well known. Not single case of

any such disease can be found on this island,
Except of invalids come here for their health.
and they are almost always cured). Combined
with Calisaya Bark, Cascarilla, and other i'm
portant ingredients, this Rum becomes PLAN
TAT1oN BITTERs; and surely no finer Tonic
and general Family Remedy was ever SEEM
The combination of these Btters was first dis
covered here many years ago. and all the ma
tives swear by Plantation Bitters, and say,
" there is nothing like it," Judging by the ro-
bust health of the witnesses 1 am certain their
testimony is true. y **
