to our veneration, arc we shocked with the possi bility that such a nation should engage in a con flict, which even smugglers and pirates would be disgraced in waging. It is said that the late Chief Darm Thompson Was a very facetious companion over the bottle, which he much enjoyed. At one of the Judges | dinners during the Assizes, there was present a| certian dignitary of the church. "W hen the | cloth was removed, “ I always think my Lord,” | said the very reverend guest, “that a certain j quantile of wine does a man no harm after a 1 good dinner !”—“ Oh, no. Sir !—by no means,” | replied the Chief Baron ; “it is the uncertain quantity that does the mischief!” —— j Prince Albert, it is well known, is exceedingly fond of whist, and plays remarkably well. A few evenings since he sat down with a parly, one of whom was Lord Alfred Paget who was op posed to h m. “ What slakes shall we play for?” asked his Lordship. “ Five shillings the rub,” said the Prince. “You used to play for a save- . reign” observed Lord Allred. “Ah, that was before I was married, jocosely replied Albert; “ I won that stake, and therefore now play for a ' crown.” * Evglamd’s Aid to hkk A lliks.—-Within twelve months from the commencement of the war, England sent over to the Spanish armies (besides £2,000,000) 150 pieces of field artillejy 42.000 rounds of ammunition, 200,000 muskets, 61.000 swords. 79000 pikes, 23,000,000 ball car tridges 6.000,000 leaden balls.lsooo barrels of gunpowder, 92,000 suits of clothing, 356,000 sets of accoutrements and pouches, 310,000 sets of camp equipage, 118,300 yards of linen, 50,000 great coals, 60,000 canteens, 50 000 havro sacks with a variety of stores far too numerous to he recapituia'ed— Maxwell's Life of Wellington. From the National Intelligencer. The Soldier of Tippecanoe. / ir—“ Some love to Roam.” The slars are bright, and ourslops are light As we sweep lo our camping ground ; And well we know, as we forward go. That the loe fills the greenwood round ; But we know no fear, though the fiebe near. As we tramp the greenwood through. Chorus—For oh! have we not for our leader got '1 he Soldier of Tippecanoe? Now the deep green grass is our soft matrass Till the beating of reveille; No light’s in our camp hut the firefly lamp, No roof but the green wood tree. Uriel slumbers we snatch, till the morning watch; But one eye no slumber knew ! One eye was awake tor his soldier’s sake, ’Twas the soldier of Ticpecnnoe. For oh ! have we not f.r our leader got The hero of Tippecanoe. The faint dawn is breaking,'our bugles are speak, mg. Quick rouses our lengthened line, Sweet dreams are departing, the soldier is start ing And w elcome the morning shrine ; But hark ! ’tis the drum ! the foe is come. Their yells ring the dark woods through; But see mounted, ready, brave, cautious, and steady. The soldier of Tippecanoe. For oh ! have we not for our leader got r J he soldier of Tippecanoe! Now nigher and nigher though hot is the fire, And ceaseless the volleying sound. We press down the hollow, and dauntfessly fol low, Then tramp upon the rising ground, With dtath-dealnig aider, we piess them yet harder, And still as ihey come into view. “Now steady, hoys, steady; be quick and lie ready !” Cries the Soldier of Tippecanoe. For oh ! have we not tor our leader got The soldier of Tippecanoe. Down, down drops the foe, and still we go. And each ihicket and dlng’e explore ; Loud our shrill bugles sing, till the wide woods nng, 0T- And their rifles are heard no more. Now weave the green crown ol undying renown For the patriot hero’s brow, And write his name with the halo of fame, The Soldier of Tippecanoe. For oh ! have we not for our leader got The soldier of Tippecanoe? DIED, the 15th inst. Emeline Cornelia, infant aughter of Frederick and Elizabeth Lamback, aged 10 montas. COMMERCIAL.

PEDIGREE. J. R. 11. Acklin, Esq. of Huntsville, Alabama, certifies as follows ; —“ Tom Tunstali was foaled mine on the 29th May, 1831. His dam was High land Mary .and her dam a full-blooded Archie mare; the sire of Highland Mary was old Pacolef. Tom Tunstali was sired by old Pacific, and he by old Sir Archie. This is as far as lam able to go, tho’ 1 am satisfied Tom Tunstali has descended fiom as I good a stock as any horse in the United States. — He was a race horse of the first order, but I lear will never be able to make a first rate race again, owing to his leg; it was injured when a three year old, in training, as I believe. By addressing Har dy Cryer, Gallatin, Tennessee,you can get a full pedigree of the dara of Tom Tunstali.” The same Mr. Hardy Cryer certifies thus : —“ Highland Mary combined as many or more rich crosses of thorough breds than any maie ever raised in Tennessee.— She was got by the noted horse Pacolet, the son of imported Citizen ; her dam Kosey Carey by Sir Archie ; grand-dam Sally Jones by the imported horse Traveller, called Big Ben or Charleraaine, . (son of O’Kelley’s Eclipse, and one of the purest importations of the last century;) great grand-dam by the imported horse Wrangler; great-great-grand dam O’Possum by imported Shark; great-great great-grand-dam by the celebrated American quar ter race horse, Goode’s old Twigg; great-great great-great-grand-dam by imported Fearnaught; grcat-gieat-great-great-grcat-grand-dam by Lee’s old Mark Anthony out of a mare by imported Mou key.” On the sire’s side it is deemed unnecessary to trace beyond Sir Archie. It is presumed none will require a purer or better attested pedegree!— If farther recommendation be wanted, call and see Tom WILLIAM HOLMES, Agent, feb 22—trw&wtf A AA BBL 9.

In many hun dred certified cases vvhicn has been made public, and in almost ever) species of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFAT’S LIFE PILLS AND PHENIX BIT TERS have been gratefully and publicly ac tnovvledged by the persons benefiitted, and who were previously unacquainted with the beauiilully philosophical principles upon which they are* compounded, and upon which they act. The LIFF3 MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases ot every form and description. Their first operation is to loosen from tlie coals of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities and crudities eon tanlly settling around them ; and to remove the hardened faeces which collect in the convolusjons of the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected messes behind as to produce habitu al coslivencss with all its train ofevils. or in a sud den diarrhoea, wit h its eminent dangers. This tact is well known to all regular anatomists, who ex amine the human bowels after death; and hen?,e the prejudice of those well informed men against quack medicines—or medicines prepared and her alded to the public bv ignorant p< rsons. r J he se cond effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by this means, the liver and the lungs, the healthful action of which entirely depends upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The blood, Which lakes its red color from the agency of the liver and the lungs before it passes into the heat, being thus purified by them and nourished by food coming from a clean stom ach, courses freely through the veins, renews every part of the system, and triumphantly mounts the banner of health in the blooming cheek. Moffat’s Vegetable Lite Medirinex have been thoroughly attested, and pronounced a sovereign remedy for dyspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation ol the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Head ache, Restlessness, ill-temper, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Cosiiveness, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fevers of all kinds. Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kind, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consump lion, Scurvy, Ulcers, Inveterate Sores, Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complexions, Eruptive com plaints, Sallow, Cloudy, and olher disagreeable Complexions, Salt Rheum, Erysij*elns, Common Colds and influenza and various other complamis which afflict the human frame. In fever ami ague, particularly, the Life Medicines have been most eminently successful; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts, Physicians almost uni versally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffat requires of his patient is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according lo the directions, it is not by a news paper notice, or any thing that he himself may say in their lavor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is alone by ihe result of a fair :rial. MOFFAT’S MEDICAL MANUAL; designed as a domestic guide to health.—This little pamphlet edited by \N . B Moffat 376 Broadway New York, \ has been published lor the purpose of explaining mure fully Mr. Moffat’s theory of diseases, and will be found highly interesting to persons seeki g health.
