should not be surprised if he retired before many
months.
The president, reached home this morning
from old Point Cfimfort aAcr spending an agreea
ble week.
It is said that the government received an ex
press this afternoon from the south, bearing On
Mexican matters of course ; but as yet no one Os
the public is A w hit the wiser for it-. Some wag
about town entered the name of Gen. Be La
Vega on the books of Brown's Hotel to-day, im
in-distely after the arrival of the Southern boat,
and there Are scores of idle fellows kicking their
Kuinsabout the porticoes of the establishment
eager to get a sight of the lion.
This city is Mill the very exemplification of
dullness. Think .God, we are not pestered with
uncomfortable hot and dusty Weather to make
our ennuie more unbearable. All eyes and
ears in Washington are still turned in the direc
tion of California for the next stirring war
news. • / , 1
It is admitted here* arid by all men, of all par
ties, that the return of Santa Anna to power can
not foil to be favorable to a speedier peace. The
stories of the exact correspondence betweeri hint
(while in Cuba) and the government of the
United States are all fudge; or I am very much
mistaken. ~Tbe only reason why his return to
powertsexpectoj (by those well nsed in priblic
affairs) to hasten the conclusion of the war,
arises from the fact that as bad a man as he is,
he is two wise a Statesman to persist in A con
test which is surely to result in sacrifices on the
part of Mexico, in ex act ratio with its duration
and expense to the United States.
LOWNDES.
Wiiiixstox Citt, Sept. I, 1846.
No. 4.
The Southern mail reaching us last evening,
in a measure relieved the public mind from the
excitement, under which it has been laboring for
the past week, more especially, upon the subject
of the progress of affairs in California. A month
ago, advices that Sloat had taken possession of
Monterey, or at IcfiSt, had inside sfime demonstra
tion in that quarter, were considered due, and
as the part to he played by thfi nfival force tinder
his command in the grand American—Mexican
drama, was judged here if no wheTo else to be
of great importance, yfiht readers hiy imagine
how anxious all felt on account of the delay of
intelligence concerning the progress of his arms.
The news by last nights mail on this particular
head only mentions bkiderttalty, that an express
had arrived at Mexico eta ting in broad tcirris that
California had been “annexed’’ to the United
States. No one here, conversant With public
affairs, doubts the arrival of the express referred
to, snd that it brought dew a that Sloat had taken
Monterey, and possibly, thfit *onfe considerable
p Htion of California had revolted from the cen
tral government, and perhaps asked aid from the
Commodore on the part sis the United States.
With this latter movement, ts it lias occurred, As
I believe, our government had no'drl My rennec
tion. The war it Wiges AgAifist Mexico is net a
war of conquest, w big Assertions to the contra
ry notwithstanding. Nor is it a war sis proselyt
ivn. Our troops are there for the solo purpose
of forcing redress from her government for the
many injuries inflicted on Americans dlfd their
government. Evert Occurrence of the campaign,
so for. goes to show that the Administration has
strictly refrained fTfim interfering ifi the domes
tic affairs of the portions of the enemy’s country
already occupied by us, further tliari may be ab
solutely necesßirv tr’ emu re victory jo our Anns
The *• annexation of California’’ is therefore a
humbug of the first water. If that territory
ever become our, it ‘frill be by treaty with Mexi
co on settling finally for the damages growing
out of this war. The fact that Santa Anna made
for Siul rather than Vera Crtta, when he had
all things arranged for the late revolution in his
favor, is in itself evidence that the government of
the United States takes no part in their domes
tic difficulties. The fear of being treated in all
ire peels as anv other Mexican, induced him
doubtless, not to run the risk of being captured
by our ficet off* Vera Crux; as be would have
been if coming within the reach of Commodore
Conner.
These matters Sre on tv cf importance as going
to ffiow that the stories circulated far and wide
by th whigs, that th'o President is prosecuting
this as a war of aggrandizement, are false : for.
if true, he is certainly neglecting the very surest
means of fixing American power on a perrria
nent anJ reliable base ir.’ Mexico. I mean that
ot building up art American party, oir rather a
| rty placing its h >pcs of success in a great mea
sure on aid from the United States.
Public men here cur of the cabinet, in’ rt’hosd
judgement I place great relifthce, are certainly
ajypting the opinion that the signs of a speedy
t-raunaUon to the war are now much more en
couraging than at the adjournment of Congress.
Indeed, the effect of the campaign upon Mexico
is but beginning to be developed. There, the
government and people arc only now walking up
to realize the fact that they must make peace on
any term*, or submit-quietly to have their whole
country taken possession of by the United'States
I >nre*. Accordingly, we hear that the parties in
\ era Cruz ‘•pronouncing''’ against the existing
government and in favor of Santa Anna, declare,
uuasked, their dcsife for peace ; end also that
th revolutionary ministry who went into power
on the 6lh of last month are, one and all, oppos
ed to farther efforts to’ continue the war. bo it
seems that th° powerful and vigorous measures
of the American administration, arc at last teach
ing them common sense. But thase men, thus
fc •daring are the agents of bauta Antra : his I
trusty friends who headed tlfe movement in his
favor at the two most important points in the so
eUed republic. It can hardly be possible that
they would assume this position except after
full consultation with him dnthe subject. And
Suita Anna hints&f on leaving Cuba expressed
his individual pra4uence for peace with the
United whirtr means neither indie ifor
less thap that he intends to assume that public
s-nlimeut in Mexico is co-incident with his own,
and to act accordingly by way of carrying out
the will of the nation. In truth, every party or
writer in power in Mexico since the authority of
bpain was chosen off justified each their own,
as but carrying out the will of the people. San
ta Anna who has had as much experience with
public affaire as anv man in America, knows
well that every additional hour this war longer
e aiores, is to cost Mexico a greater sacrifice
when she comes to loot the bill, to indemnify
us (or costs and damages. He knows the re
source* >f his country, and with all his personal
vices and cruelties he is too wise a statesman to
waste the energies of his people in a contest which
m ust inevitably be fruitless of beneficial results
to them. He will hasten to make peace on al
ia ■ any terms. We shall no sooner hear defi
nitely of the occupation of Monterey on the Paci
fic by our squadron; of Monterey, cast of the
mountains by Taylor’s advances under Hays of
and of Santa Fee by Kearney, then Mxi
co will be found earnestly sueiug lor peace ; or
I am more mistaken than I have been in public
< fairs for many lonj days.
Ramons of cabinet change* have fallen thick
lyihit upon us far a few days pat. Some
itn* Northern papers, (the IS’ew York Herald,
for instance) have published flaming pro
grammes of complete re-organization of &c
cabinet.
They represent that Mr. Lewis McLans is to
take the Port Folio of the State Department, and
Mr. Attorney General Mason that of the Navy
Department; while Mr. Woodward of Pa. (an
eminent Jurist and Republican) is to go into the
office of the Attorney General. “ Buck” to go
to England, and Bancroft to France. Others
►ay that Mr. Burke of the Patent office is to be
the new Secretary of the Navy, &c., See. This
is all sheer nonsense. I think I may with per
fect confidence venture to write you that not a
cabinet officer will be changed at present—that
there is no settled design on the part of either of
the Presidents constitutional advisers to retire,
■fid that hi would not change either for any oth
er man who can be named.
Three efreu instances combine to originate
these Stories First, the great dreath of “ Waah
ington news” which sadly puzzles tlie paragraph
ic* who write from this city for distant papers
to eke our matter for an ordinary Washington
letter; secondly, the Active efforts of a concen
trated disposition onjhe part of powerful influ
ences in the Navy to stay the reforms which the
head of the Department is bending his every ener
gy to accomplish ; and thirdly,, the well known
desire of the (Secretary of the Navy to complete
his history. Bancroft is as unpopular with the
service as A man must lie who, in his position,
will let nothing interfere with his plans to re
form abuses.
I should not be surprised, however, if Mr.;
Bancroft’s desire to complete his great Work should
overcome his dis[>osition to brave out the opposi
tion to his reform*, which is as wide spread and
deep rooted in the service as are the abuses
themselves, to which lie has applied the pruning
kfiife so fefiilesriy and with so nyich skill. If
he does conclude to throw aside every thing else
for his book, he may retire some time before the
meeting of Congress. But the stories in circu
lAtion as to ‘ his present determination dec.” are as
idle as the whid'. ,
It seems .it length to be conceded that no con
siderable influence in Whiggery will dare ven
ture to stir op the tariff question in Congress
next winter. Indeed from one enJ of New
England to the other, the Whig papers in each
of the manufacturing towns have openly labour
ed to discourage any further opposition to the
bill of 1846. Not because their friends prefer
any one of its features to those of the bill ot ’42,
but because nothing can possiblv result from agi
tation at present, but a general want of business
confidence, and consequent injury to every man
who link bfina-fide capital of his own, invested in
manufacturing.
The Carpet Weaving capitalists of the United
States, who, in all, employ about twelve hundred
male workmen, having commenced to make their
operatives loose the reduction at which their gdfids
must be sold under the hew tariff, the latter to
counteract this game, have lately held a Conven
tion in New York city, to devise ways and
means of protecting themselves and their families.
Delegates attended, I believe, from every carpet
Factory at the North; and they have probably
succeeded in their efforts. For in the first place,
they have proved beyond the shadow of doubt,
that the profits of the capitalists engaged in the
business, have ranged from forty to fifty per cent,
per annhm on their investments—that notwith
standing these enormous gains, they have rarely
lost an opportunity to cut down wages undur
the plea of small profits. They have also pro
ved that the prices brought by carpetings at the
late trade sale when the market WaS effected by
the change in the duties so soon to take place,
will enable the capitalists to realize twentv per
cent profit per annum, all round. The prices at
this sale are admitted hv the manufacturers them
selves, to be quite down to the notch at which
foreign competition can bring them'. Indeed,
that, alone, has brought them to it; for all mer
chants buying, know that in three months from
this date, English Carpeting can be obtained for
the low prices ot the trade sale and they would not
have purchased of the American manufacturers,
had they stickled for theirlate forty or fifty percent,
profits. These operatives have Acted wisely in
proving up the fart, that with wages, as under
the tariff of 1842, their employers can, under
the law of 1846, realize dividends of twenty per
cent per annum { and then leaving it to pub
lic opinion to deter the millionaries from carrying
cut their late determination, to grind them. Af
ter proving also that their wages, which average
not more than a dollar a day* afford but a bare
subsistence, they intimate to their employers that
if they persevere in their efforts to take the bread
from the mouths of their Wives and children,
they might sobri lock out for exactions on the
part of the laboring millions to procure the abol
ishment of all import duties, because they’ will
thus have been proved to have stimulated incor
porated and otherwise combined wealth, to grind
the faces of the poor. They boldly maintain
the ground that any “ protection,” fir in other
words, increase of prices or profits ehjoyed by
their employers, shows the manner in which the
General Government is now supported, is a boon
—not a right ,■ and that by combining tfi screw
their Workmen, they make good the assertion of
the anti-protectionists that this boon, thus grant
ed, tends to a dangerous and anti-republican con
centration of wealth in the hands of a favored
few, who will in thfi end use it Against the mass
es from whose bounty it is derived, as the same
class have done in almost every civilized commu
nity, from tiie days of Romes glory, tfi the pre
sent. They tell the capitalists that their threat
ened course cannot fail to increase the growing
popular feeling against their special privileges;
and that it will probably be seized on hy the op
ponents of the “ eys’eiii” who will and can, fair
ly use it With tremendous effect to hasten the
coming of the day when the taxes for the sup
port of the General Government, shall be laid on
all men rigidly according to the wealth sis each,
and only for fts support.
As you have no doubt seeri in the “ Uiiion,”
the Whigs have an efficient central organization
here wliich is now sending forth hundreds of
thousands of Federal schemes into Pennsylva
nia and other contested States. Pennsylvania,
however is the particular field for their operations
at present. The speeches of Webster, Andrews,
Stewart, Cameron and Niles, are their weapons,
par excellence. And these have set the cue for
the cry now so ripe among those at the north,
who still continue the assault on the new tariff,
viz : that it is “a bill to*help the South at the ex
pense of the North.” That “it is to build up
slave labor at the expense of free.” This means
in plain English, that it is a nearer approach to
justice than the tariff of 184“—that iff relieves
the South from some portion of the indirect tax,
it was compelled to pay to’ the North, under the
present tariff of the Whigs. Apd yet your Fed
eral members toiled to support this bill, thns stig
matized by its Northern enemies as designed to
benefit their own constituents, particularly.
It is certainly the design of the Whigs to con
fmfe their Congressional warfare next winter 1 to
the Mexican War question. Os this, the signs
are too palpable to be mistaken. We have had
certainly a pretty fair showing of the spirit of
Federalism in 1812, within the lat eigbt*nonths,
but what has bchn , will not prove a priming to
what is to be, in that line.
Our neighbors of Alexandria town and coun
ty of this district, are to-day voting upon the

CALIFORNIA.
The Washington Union of the 2d instsays:
\\ e have received information, on which we
place implicit reliance that Commodore Bloat took
possession of Monterey on the 6th July last. On
the 9th July, Commander John B. Montgome
ry, of the Portsmouth, summoned the command
ant of kerba Buena to surrender. What the
result of this summons was, we are not informed.
A few days previously to the 6th July, a de
tachment from Col. Fremont’s force took pos
session of a frontier post called Sonoma to the
north of San Francisco. General Castro at
tempted to dislodge them; but, after a slight skir
mish, and the arrival of Col. Fremont in person,
he, Castro, retreated.
There appears to have been as much dissen
sion among the Californians before the arrival of
Com. Sloat, as existed in other parts of Mexico.
On the 15th June a junta met at Santa Barba
ra headed by Governor Pied, tfi declare Califor
nia independant; which movement was met by
a proclamation from the Commandant General
CastrO, declaring martial law throughout the

THE FARMER MANUFAC
TURER.
We belong to thatyfass have always con
tended that a natiojrof farmerbwcrc much hap
pier than a nation of manufacturers not that
we would haufi the whole communlte farmers,
but we wou(u prefer the great body oPtiie peo
ple to bj^ngaged in agricultural pursuit*. So
long we have millions of acre* of waste larftt
it is better for our people to buy clothes than to
make them. No nation ever was enslaved by
the country people, and they rarely ever engage
in those disgraceful riots that are so efimmon in
manufacturing districts. Another objection to
large manufacturing establishments, is, that gen
erally speaking, the owners control the votes of
the operatives.
Asa general rule, it is sheer nonsense, to talk
about freedom of elections in the manufacturing
districts—-nine times out of ten the operative
votes as his employer wishes.
Below we give the condition of a farmer and
a manufacturer, hy one who was well acquainted
w ith both classes. We do not pretend that such
is the condition of all of each class, but it is a
fair description, taking them as a class.
AntOngst the advocates of the American
System along the seabord, there is a perpetual
cry that agriculture is overdone, that no'more
people can get their living by agriculture than
those already engaged in it. Was ever such
sheer nonsense heard m any country but this’
What are we to be told, that because a farmer
who cultivates poor land in Philade phia coun
ty cannot grow rich in a few years, that there
fore one who emigrates to Ohio, buys eighty
of land for one hundred dollars, and in
one years time is as independant for his food,
necessary clothing, fuel and lodging, as the
wealthiest nabob in the land, cannot get his liv
ing os well as one who is content to be cooped
up in a cotton or woollen factory l Compare the
situation Os the two individuals. Look at the
robust, hardy, yeoman of the West, seated on
his farm of eighty acres, with his table g oaning
under the Weight sis, the meat, bread, vegeta
bles, and fruit, which his labour readily produ
ces—with his family warmly clad with cloth
woven out of yarn spun in his own h use by his
wife an daughters; seated before a fire suffi
cient to roast an ox, and sheltered from the
winter’s cold by a cottage built by his own la
bour and that of his hospitable neighbours. See
hita, hea thful and sprightly, go through his
master ofhis own actions, accoun
table lor the steady employment of his time tu
no eArtlrljrsuperior, and enjoying himself, afom
the fatigueWof the day are over, with ryflng
the news, or dying the politics in wkteh he
or his sons become conspicuous actors.
Then turn your Res to the workshop, and be
hold the form of the weaver,
seated at his loom— him home to
his table, furnished wiltf4htr most scanty fare,,
produced at the cost of luaxuiremitting toil. Be
hold his family, and perhaps
occupied in the same or a sinter with
himself— breathjifg stagnant fibres of
cotton, and tbeexhalations of oil, anlk of dying

having a minute of time they can call their
own, bending their course to the factory, where,
day after day, week, aflrr week, month aftei
month* year af/er year, their eyes b hold noth
ing but the whirling of Spindles, the motion oi
shuttles, and the revolution of wheels—aud
where their ears hear nothing but the noise of
machinery, or the reproving voice of a task-mas
ter, h.red to see that not a second is lost by
conversation or rest. See him, unacquainted
with the news, or the politics of the day, and so
dependant upon his employers for his daily bread
.that he cannot refuse to vote the ticket which
they may put into his hand, without the sligh
est prospect that either he or his posterity can
ever take a part in public affairs, or be other
than spinners and weavers, living from hand to
mouth. Compare the situations of these two
individuals, we say, and then answer whether a
system, which is ealeu ated to turn into slaves ’
those who might be freemen* to retain in igno
rance and poverty these who might become en
lightened and prosperous, to impair the morals
and health of those who might remain chaste
and healthful, is not as anti-republican and wick

Pirates in the East Indies. —Accounts
from Singadore to the 28th of May, report that
the Duch War schooner Chamelion, on her way
to Min tow, had been captured by pirates, and
surf'c oil’ .the coast of Banko, all hands being
killed. The pirates mustered forty boats, each,
containing sixty men, and eafch boat armed with
a long gun. The pirates afterwards landed up
on the Island of Banka, and sacked a village,
killing till who offered any resistance, and then,
re-embarked, carrying with them some men,
women and children as slaves—also some treas
ures and tin. It is said that the pirates were
under the command of a renegade Dutch officer,
who was dismissed from the se’vice of the Dutch
government some years ago, under cicumstances
of peculiar disgrace. He fled to the Illanoon
pirats, and married the daughter of one of their
chiefs; and has since been active in training the
pirates for service against his countrymen and
their trade. The steamer Merope has gone in
search of the pirates.

AMERICAN LABOR--HOME INDUS
TRY.
We set down a few days since tfi Write an
article for the purpose of showing that Agricul
tural or commercial pursuits and their product
were a% much entitled to protection as manufac
turifig labor, but feeling more inclined to read,
that write we took up the work of an old friend
and found an article on the vfiry subject we were
going to write upon, & what Was very important
it was much better, that what we would have
written ourselves. Here it is.
From the Banner of the Constitution.
Let us suppose two individuals, each posses
sing a capital of thirty thousand dollars, and
each resolved to direct his industry towards the
same object, the production of cotton fabrics—
The one proposes to produce them by t/iinu
facturing industry, the other-third of his capi
tal in buiidii g a factory and machinery, and th
residue in the purchase of raw cotton’ and in
the payment of the wages of spinners & weavers.
The other expends one-third of his capital in
building a ship, and the other two-thirds in the
purchase of raw cotton to be shipped to G refit
Britain, and in the payment of the wages of
the crew ofhis vessel. By these expenditures each
one will have contributed towards the support of
domestic industry. The one will have employ
ed carpenters, brick-layers, machine-makers,
smiths, lumber and irfin dealerS, tfi the amount
of ten thousand dollars-. The other will have
Employed ship-carpenters, riggers, sail-makers,
mast-makers, boat-builders,. rope-makers, pain
ters, plumbers, caulkers; timbers and iron deae
lers, and various others, to an equal amount.
The one will have employed a number of spin
ners and weavers; The other will have em
ployed a number of sailors, arid each, it will be
observed, employs the same anfount of capital.
Now, whether the actual number of individuals
employed in the two different modes of produc
tion, l>e greater in the manufacturing process,
is of no sort of consequence. The simple ques
tion which presents itself is, Whether or not the
cotton fabrics, which are imported in exchange
for the raw cotton exported, are not as much
the representative Os American iridiistry, value
for value, as tlie cotton fabrics made at heirrie;
and, if so, must not that mode of production,
whether it be the manufacturing or the commer
cial one, which produces the greatest number of
yards of cotton cloth, of the same quality, be
the most profitable one for the nation to pursue ?
to answer this question in the negative, would
be the same thing As to say, that cheapness in
purchasing, which is the end and aim of all the
efforts now making by Science and philosophy, in
ail the branches of industry all over the world, is
not to be preferred to dearness—which is too
absurd to be worth a serious refutation.
FACTS FOR THE PEOPLE.
Coarse Cottons and Calicoes--Tariff of
181a.
Under the act of 1842 all goods riAauufactured
from cotton not dyed, costing not exe.nding 20
*Bfe*its per square yard, shall be valued at 20 cents
per square yard.
All dyed cotton goods costing not. exceeding 30
cents per square yard shall be valued at 30 cents
a square yard for the purpose of levi g duties.
What wAs the practical effect of that bill up
on all coarse cotton fabrie -, such As are used’ by
the poor and middling classes, whether plain
undyed cotton or dyed cottons, called calicoes ?
It was this; The cotton shirtings and shee
tings, costing only about 7 cents* a yard, and
which is the kind used by the masses, were
taxed as cottons costing 20 cents per yard, and
a duty levied of thirty per cent, upon that false
and valuation, making the consumer
pay a duty upon this assumed valuation of near
ly three times its actual cost
As to di/ed cottons, called calicoes, the same
unjust principle Was adopted; The course .cal
icoes worn by farmer’s and mechanic’s wives
an*ldaughters, costing about 8 cents a yard were
assumed to have cost thirty cents a yard, and a
duty of 30 per cent, levied upon this falsely as
sumer valuation, nearly louh times its actc
ai. Cost.
Thus Were the masses made to pay just ns
much duty upon these undyed cotton and calico
prints, costing but 7 and 8 cents a yard, as
the rich paid upon fine cottons actually costing
twenty cents a.yard, and French calicoes actu
ally costing 30 cents per yard, and worn and
used by the rich.
This was the principle of 1842 so much lan
ded by over growu capitals—a bill that should
hAve been denominated “an Act to make the
poor poorer,” and yet the act of 1848, whch
has abolished this cruel, unjust, arid irliqrutpus
priticiple, arid place the duty upon t he, quality
and cost of the article, is to be denounced, and
whig arithmeticians are cyphering up how much
party capital they are to make olit of this too
long delayed justice to the twenty millions of
consumers in this country.
The whigs rnay rest assured, they are wa
king up the wrong passengers, and are calcula
ting without theirhost in this matter. The people
are too intelligent and scrutizing, long to be
deceived and duped by poltical thimble riggers,
or selfish and mercenary manufacturers. — Troy

What’s reputation, friendship, pride—•
Compared with fortune’s flowing tide, —
With party, power and office 1
m
The pliant, patriot, trimming tribe,
Who wisely take the official bribe,
To betterAheir condition ;
Now sweeping’fore the popular gale,
All former friends and creeds assail,
And curse the opposition.
VII.
But should the opposition trip
The heels ofpewer, tHey’d tack their ship,
And trirA to admiration;
W—Ll—-C, then would be their cry—
They’d hoist the caucus flag on high,
And curse th’ administration.
VIII.
And this, I hold, is wisdom’s course, —
Stick to your party, while iu force,
Or while your party pay; j
But when defeat appears in view, /
Or office loaves prove light and few — *
Up helm and bear away!
TO ANNA.
There’s not a'word thy lip hath breath’d,
A look thine eye bath given,
That is not shrined within my heMt,
Like tp a dream 6f heaven. tI
Therb’s not a Spot wheye we havfe met,
A favorite flower or tree,
There’s not a scene by thee beloved,
That ri not priz’d by me.
Wben’er I hear the linet’s song ;
Or the blitne wood-lark’s lay;
Or mark upon the golden west,
The rosy clouds decay ;
Whene’er I catch the breath of flowers,
Or music from the tree,
Thought wings her way to distant bowers,
And memory clings to thee.

BARNES’ I*XLE LOTION.
:the following certificate needs no com
ment.
REAf> FOI£ YOURSELF.
BARNET PILE LOTION.—This is to cer
tify, that in the year 1809, I was afflicted
with a severe attack of the Piles, and suffered to
a great extent for a number of years ; at times
the protuberances were as large as walnuts, and
confined me to my bed for several weeks at a
time. Since the year 1823 or ’24, a change took
place in the character of my disease; at that
time they Changed from the outward to the
bleeding Piles. The discharges of blood iji the
last eight or ten years have been so great as to
reduce me very much; at times the bleeding has
.been s great and of such long continuance, that
-I have been compelled to use cloths sa.'irated
with fine salt, tastop.the blood. I had an attack
•of this kird during the last year, which was so se
vere that I alffost fainted from the loss of blood.
Frequently after an evacuation of the bowels, it
has required aver? considerable time, with thcf.
issistsnce of salt, ice, &c., before I have been
able to leave the place. I have tried almost ev
ery prescription Which has been recommended
to me by friends, aud have had the best medical
attendance, but with little or no effect; the vio
■ience of thjp disease appeard to set their skill at
defiance and the frequency qf the attacks and the
extent cf my suffering caused me to despair of re
-ceivnig any permanent benefit. Some time in.
the month of August last, Mr. John R. S. Barnes,
of Trenton, New Jeisey, was informed of my
suffering ; by Capt. Hingle, of the steamboat New
Philadelphia, and sent me a bottle of his Pile Lo- ■
tion, which 1 used, and, to my great joy. and sur
prise, it soon gave me relief. After using it five
or six weeks, the discharge of blood had stoped,
and 1 discontinued its application. After some
time had elapsed, the bleeding slightly recom--
inenced, when Mr. Barnes seat rne another bot
tle, and having used it two or three weeks, the
1 Jdeeding was again stopped ; and from that time
to the present, my health has continued to im
prove, ar.d I now Feel scarcely any inconvenience
from the Piles, and my general health is good.
I consider myself as cured, apd my health re
stored by the use of this valuable remedy, and
cheerfully recommended it to all who are afflic
ted with this painful -disease.
