From tho WvttsgtM Unto* tti iasL
-e^e—
It cannot bo long before the rood to Vera Crux
* ill be opened by ear a&taneing column*, and
then we shall bare the General's own official ac
counts of the memorable events in which he has
%een concerned. Meantime we are dependent
Open the newspaper* correspondents, who fol
low the camp to eciise and record its transactions.
Among these, Mr. Kendall, of tin New Orleans
Picayune, has been One of the raest radnstrisn*.
Mr. Kendall is a w!pg in his politics, and a parti-
•an in las views i and we regret tony that he
has not been as impartial la his represaatations as
he might hare been, lie has been too partial in
the distribution of his praises among the general
officers, and has almost entirely passed over the
service* of General Pillow, who bat never re
ceived from the Picayune the justice to which his
merits entitle Mm.
Mr. K.'s description of the battle of Chapnlte*
pco is singularly meagre. Gen. Pillow's division
•distinguished itself in that engagement; and his.
Voltigenr regiment became at last "the assaulting
force,'supported by the balance of the division."
The Bella's correspondent, "Mustang," whose
admirable nod graphic letter* of the affair of Cha-
pultcpoc, afid the capture of the city, we laid be*
fore our readers last evening, will supply many
of the owitsiem, and do justice to all the gallaut
officer* of this accomplished army.
It is impossible to read these descriptions of the
achievements of our troops without feeling proud
•four countrymen. The copious extracts which
we bare made from the New Orleans papers
mnst for the present toko the place of the official
despatches.
The events which tiioy commemorate place
«ur national character in the most favorable
point of view. They illustrate die high bearing of
our officers and soldiers—not their chivalry only,
but their courtesy. One letter is written by an
Englishman in Mexico, paying the highest com
pliment to the valor of our army. Each and all
are described as so many heroes. A letter from
a Frenchman dwolls upon their forbearance aud
humanity, and states that, undor the aggravating
circumstances which attended their march into
the capital,in the face of the stoning from the roofs
and the tiring from the windows, they displayed
a moderation towards the enemy which far sur
passed the brightest examples of the soldiers of
Europe.
We cannot pass over Mr. Kendall's letters
without noticing some passages in his late letters
thatdo very little creditto hispeu. One of these
(as we have already remarked) conveys an in
discreet, illiberal, and unjust reflection upon the
administration. He says:
"Blatter* are approaching a crisis; while the
great mistake in uot entering the capital on tiiu
night of the 20th, when the Mexicans were per
fectly panic-stricken and in fuli flight, is hourly
developing itself. The great sacrihce of life yes
terday—the loss of so many gallant spirits—has
all been owing to the cessation of hostilities and
the armistice which followed, and nn awful re
sponsibility vests either With the government or
with Gen. Scotland BIr. Trist
'/The instructions will show, but I am of the
opinion that the former is mostly to blame. The
latter are censurable for placing faith in Mackin
tosh, in giving Santa Anna so much tiino, or even
in having any reliance upon his power and ability
to make poace. under all th* circumstance*, how
ever much be might have desired it personally. 1
will say nothing ofthe bribery, thatdark side of the
picture is uudoubtedly.the work of the exceedingly
wise men at Washington. Bud advisers have
been busy, both hero aud at home, in recomeud*
ing measures to bring about a peace, and their
counsels have prevailed to the exclusion ofthe
opinions of men who might have been listened to
with profit"
.The insinuation abontthe instructions ofthe
government is grossly unjust We have touched
this subject more than once, and placed the case
in a proper point of viow. On tiio 21st ult we
■aid;
"Wo cannot dismiss this subject without re
marking that we should be very reluctant to pro
judge the question ofan armislice. We have not
yet received the despatches of Gen. Scott We
do not positively know tho grounds upon which
he acted—the motives by which he was actuated
—the results which ho expected to accomplish.
He had no instructions to grant an armistice—or,
we ought rather to say, to tugptml hostilities—mu
til a treaty of peace had been ratified on the part
of Mexico. Ycti'fe will not undertake to say
that the Commanding General had no authority to
grant a temporary truce, upon his own re*])eligi
bility, when he considered it strongly calculated
to militate the consummation of peace. Nor
will we undertake to say tlmt the responsibility,
though great in itself, was not widely exerted un
der the cirtmmstauces of tho case. Tho Picay
une makes out a strong case iu behalf ofthe ar
mistice, when it states that no treaty of pence
could be made by Santa Anita without die con
sent of Congress; that it has been very difficult,
at any time, and nndprany circumstances; to get
them together; that if Gon. Scott bod rushed into
the capital, Congress would havo dispersed—or
tint they would have removed to some other city,
where, surrounded by tho representatives of
foreign powers, and the executive authorities of
weir own govommeut, it would have been more
difficult to bring about a negotiation for peace."
Wo shall still refrain from any remarks upon
tills subject. We have no disposition to prejudge
the coarse of Gen. Scott or of Mr. Trist. Wo
•hall wait to hear tho reasons which induced the
General to grant an armistice and enter into a
negotiation, though we apprehend it has cost our
country some precious lives of her sons.
We almost scorn to notice the other charge
which is iusinnated against tho administration.—
An American who had any regard for the honor
of bis country should have hesitatej long, before
Ua mode such a chargo, and never on bare sus
picion, and without the strongest evidences to
support the accusation. We have met this charge
before, and it crumbled iuto fragment*. There
has beon uo bribery practised. There has buen
no money employed for the purposes of corrup
tion. There was no money to bo Used for such
a purpose. The President of the United States,
or the Secretary of the Treasury, dare not use a
cent by way of bribery. They would have viola
ted the law, and drawn down upon their heads
the degradation of nn impeachment and tho re
sentiuent of an indignant peoplo. But wo have
so frequently expatiated upon this subject—so
clearly pointed out tbo restrictions of tbe act of
Congress? we have shown so often what conse
quences the administration would provoke by a
violation ofthe law ; the act is so wall guarded in
declaring that not a cent is to be disbursed until
the treaty has been ratified by Bfexico, and evciy
cent is to bo strictly accounted for according to
proper vouchers; we have so repeatedly and po*i
lively denied “the fact of one cent having been ta
ken out of thetreosuiy for this purpose—that it is
useless to expatiate upon the aubjeot. Tho innin.
uation is tiilse, aud it is more-worthy of the Mexi
can columns ofthe ‘*La Patria” than of the Pico/-
ajruue.
It is to bo regretted that Mr. Kendall should
have suffered his party politic* to interfere with
his impartiality aa a historian, and that ho should
have imputed acts to the administration for which
there is ito cblor of evidence or of truth.
Ner is tiio correspondent of tho Picayuno con-
u ot with the*o flings,it tho administration.. The

courtesy as truth, he makes the followingpit t
"What credit to place in these rumors, Ido

head. As a prisoner, Santa Anna knows perfect
ly well that be can humbug BIr. Polk with ease,
and all his friends besides. We shall know tho
whole truth ofthe matter in the course of a day
■or two.”
We leave the public to judge of the propriety
of those partisan strictures. We regret to see it
in a gentleman who is a man of letters and a man
of talent, and from whom we expected all the im
partiality of a faithful historian of the events he
describes.

A Remarkable Exhibition of Whig Bitterness.
It is a well known fact in philosophy that all the
paMious of the human bosom expand ttuder in
dulgence. The feeling of hatred can be nurtur
ed to such nn extent ns often to assume the ap
pearance of insanity; and he especially becomes
the slave of that emotion who is conscious of hav-
ing inflicted a wanton injury upon its object. It
becomes a master passion which swallows up all
the better emotions of the sonl. A most singular
instance of the insano extent to which the spirit
of opposition to BIr. Polk has beeii carried, was
exhibited, a short time since, in the conduct of the
Whig* of the town of Auburn, at the head ofthe
Montgomery Rail Road, in Alabama. Upon the
reception of the rumor of Mr. Polk's death,
which, it will ho remembered, was very generally
credited in Georgia and Alabami, those patriotic
citizcus actually illuminated their houses by way
of public rejoicing at the event.
Hod this incident occurred in the heart of Mass
achusetts, thirty five years ago, among the genu
ine "blue-light" Federalists of a former day, it
would have bccuin perfect keeping with the gen
eral tenor of their act*, and would not havo ex
cited such profound astonishment. But in our
day, when, for so many years, tho conduct of
those bitter and misguided men 1ms been viewed
with the most unmitigated disgust, and wholesale
condemnation, that the blackest exhibition of their
black malevoleuce should have been revived
with a darker hue, and more repulsive features,
is a just canse for serious reflection. The con
duct of Major General Appleton IIoivc, of Mass
achusetts, and ofthe Whig citizens of the town of
Aubnrn in the State of Alabama, is indicative of
a malevoleuce of spirit in portions of the Whig
party, at both extremities of the Union, which is
disgusting beyond expression. The exhibition of
such feeling is confirmation strong as holy writ of
the workings,not of a high and holy patriotism, but
of a narrow, poisonous, partisan spirit,—not of a
devotion to pure principle, but of a morbid de
velopment of personal prejudice, and individual
animosity.
Whyshould these inen have rejoiced at Mr.
Polk’s death ? Had the Whig party aught to
gain by such an event ? They must have known
that Mr. Polk’s whole administration has been a
reflection of tho views, feeling*, nnd wishes of
that majority of the American people which placed
him in his present exnltcd position: tlmt U has
been controlled and fashioned by the principles of
the great Democratic party of the nation; and
that Mr. Dallas, who would Have bctoinc his sue.
ccssor, was as firm aud uncompromising an ad
vocate of those same principles as the President
himself. In what, then, could the Whig party
have hoped to gain by Mr. Polk’s decease 7 In
nothing save the gratification of those wretched
feelings of partisan malevolence, which regard the
man a? a personal foe.
At the time of Gen. Harrison's death, it wa3 well
known tlmt his successor's administration of the
Government would ho conducted, in ull proba
bility,upon different principles. The one was iu
favor of the Bunk, the other opposed to it; the
one for a Protective Tariff, the other against it;
tiie one a Northern Whig, tho other a Southern
Ntiflifier. The Democratic party had every rea
son to believe that tho death of the former, aud
the promotion ofthe latter, would work an nbrtu-
donincnt of Federal, aud an adoption of Demo
cratic measure*. Nay, further still, they had just
cause to believe tlmt this providential change
would secure an administration of the Govern
ment really expressive ofthe views and wish
es of a majority of the American people; for
no ouo supposed at that time, tlmt the very
politicians whoso support wussoughtfor tho Whig
party by the nominutiotfyjT Tyler, would be tho
first to desert him, and the loudest to abuse and
to denounce ,, the Traitor." Vet was there in any
portion ofthi* broad country, iu any city, town,or
Iminlet, such a disgraceful exhibition of partisan
delight at the melancholy event, ns is now pre
sented to our consideration / We arc proud to
bulieve tlmt such emotions have never been cher
ished by any portion of the great Democracy. De
voted to their country, nnd to their own pure prin
ciples, a high and holy patriotism fills their bosoms,
to the utter exclusion of ull such miserable feel-
ings. The bitterness of personal animosity be
longs not to them. They fiirget uot opposition to
lus principles in their hatred of the mail. It has
not been for them to ubtise aud vilify distinguish
ed officers in our army,because they chanced to be
Whigs. They have scorned this wretched sys
tem of detraction. It bus not bceu for them to
wage amoral warfare against their own Govern
ment, because a political opponent hud been
placed at its head.
And when wo speak of tho Democracy of this
country wo mean to embrace in the term many
an honest, patriotic Whig, who, from personal
associations, or nn untoward combination of cir
cumstances, has been forced into a position
which Will soon become odious to him. Thu time
is rapidly approaching when a very largo portion
ofthe Whig party will leave it forever, shaking
the dust from their feet; aud it is hy juat such
conduct as we have been cousideriug to-day, that
this desirable consummation will lie soonest ef
fected. Let the Tom Corwins and the Appleton
11 owes of the laud proceed; let the Daniel Web-
slurs deliver such speeches as the Springfield ef
fort; lot tho Federal papers of the North contin
ue to proclaim war against tho constitution of our
forefathers, and oppression nnd injustice to tho
South; let the President ofthe. United State* bo
wantonly insulted aud grossly Vilified; let the F^d-
measure the social prosperity of our Stale—the
commercial advancement of onr city.
Embarked a* pur citizens are, and have been
for year*, in urging the progressive march of rail
road communication, the period lias arrived when
they see land ahead.
Columbus, when, at the close of the fifteenth
century, ho haded the appearance on the horizon
of a consummation of his hopes, could not have
felt much more elated, than our fellow citizens of
Georgia's seaport should feel at the zeal aud ener
gy displayed by the people of Wilkes, Hancock,
Washington, &c. f to secure an uninterrupted
connexion by railway with their own Savannah,
It is saying emphatically to Charleston, proud
of her resources, and presuming on her advan
ced age—you are strong and powerful, but as
Georgians we feel a just pride iu our own sea
port, which thongh comparatively young, has
with tho faith of a David appeared in the field a-
gainst die Goliah ofthe Southern Atlantic.
We have uo wish to eeotho fato of Goliah be-
fid our eldor sister city of the South. All we
wish is tluxt when the trade of Georgia isiuvolvcd
in this or that movement, that our citizens uuion
of effort to divert to their own seaport the legiti
mate trade, may not bo unsuccessful.
With a subscription of $300,000 the citizens of
Wilkes, Hancock aud Washington ask Savannah
to add $200,000 more and insure this happy union.
Of this latter sum the Central Railroad Company
has agreed to subscribe $100,000.
The citizens of Savannah, interested in open
ing our stores, Ac., to the enterprising citizens of
that scctiou of Georgia, who have displayed
spirit worthy of those sires who in the days of the
Revolution encountered the perils of worse than
a frontier life. The property holder, the man of
business, the grocer, the mechanic, tho merchant,
the planter, all must feel alive to the great
terprise.
None can refuse to contribute to raise, accor
ding to their resouces, enough to secure n subscrip
tion which will exhibit to our friends in Wilkes,
Hancock, and elsewhere that we know our inter
ests, and that when so favorable an opportunity*
is offered to turn tho scale of Georgia feeling in
favor of Savannah, that we will not be so remiss
iu our duty as to neglect it, nnd establish testimony
agaiust ourselves which will cling like the shirt
of Ncssus, and perhaps as fatal to our peace-
Savannah's prosperity is the common platform
i which all of every shade of political feeling
can meet in harmony. AU can alike contribute their
inoucy, their time, their energy to promote her
in her career of commercial renown.
While we'dwcll with pleasure ou the demon
stration from Wilkes, Hancock, See., we must not
be construed as insensible to tho cheering indi
cations of a spirit in the Southwest, which will,
we trust, insure the completion of a road from
Macon to the Chattahoochee. This project of
connecting Suranuah via Bfacou and Columbus,
with the great West is one always cherished by
For want of space we merely to-day refer to
the following extracts whhih,among many others,

THE MACON PRESENTMENTS—THE
RAILROAD.
That portion ofthe presentments ofthe Grand
Jury of Macon county, which refer* to the re
sources und condition of South-western Georgia,
is worthy of special attention. It is a fact that cot
ton ia frequently worth one third more in Macon
than at the gin house of tho South-Western Plan
ter/ If so, what is the real cause of tiie differ
ence 7 Nothing but the facilities of a good mar
ket, possessing a speedy, cheap, nnd certain out
let to an Atlantic port. The evil being under
stood and the cause admitted, it remains for the
people to apply the remedy promptly and effi
ciently. We have had talking enough in regard to
the South-Western Hoad. Let u» now try what
virtue there is in action. All admit that tho enter
prise is not a visionary* one—tiuit the investment
will be safe and profitable. The only difficulty is
to raise the necessary funds. We have before sug
gested the justice aud propriety of appealing to the
State for asuhscription of $250,000 to the stock.—
In order to make the investment perfectly sufe,
it might be provided in the act, that such subscrip
tion shall not be made until a similar sum of $250,-
00(1 shall have been in good faith expended by the
Central Company, and at least the like sum of
$250,000 hy private individuals. It can also he
provided that the said sunt of $500,000, raised by
the Central Company, and hy private stockhold
ers, shall have been expended in the grudiug of
tho road, iu purchasing cars, laying the super
structure, constructing depots, &c. &c. and that
the $250,000 subscribed by the State, shall be ap
propriated exclusively for the purchase of iron.
This would complete seventy-live miles of the
road, and would open a communication to the ve
ry heart ofthe South-Western counties. Private
capital would then accomplish the balance.
The road tints constructed would run accord
ing to the survey now progressinguiuler Air. Hol
comb, within forty miles of Columbus; thus in ef
fect building fifty miles of road for the benefit of
tlmt city, nnd placing it entirely within the power
of her people to connect with'Macon by a short
road or only forty miles, nnd to reach tiie Atlantic
iu twenty hours. Will uot the people of Colum
bus heartily co-operate in an enterprise of this kind,
which must relieve them of all their present em
barrassments and secure to them for ever tiie trade
of the populous and wealthy adjacent counties,
both in Georgia und Alabama / Can they hesi-
tato to abandon all their present plans and em
brace oue wHich must succeed, mid which will
ultimately give them a double outlet to the Atlan
tic and the Gulf, for a comparatively insignificant
outlay of money/ Surely stockholders ofthe Cen
tral Company can offer no objections to snch a
plan,as every dollar which they expend will be re-
turned to them in increased profits during the first
five years. Nor can the Legislature reasonably
refuse an arrangement which, beside* boing a sim
ple act ofjustico to the South-West, will greatly
tend to develop tho resources nnd increase the
taxable property of the State. What then is to
prevent success / Nothing but the inactivity and
listlussncss of those who arc most deeply interest
ed in tiie enterprise. Let the people ui their pri
mary assemblies, not only express their opinions,
but instruct their Senators and Representatives
to take such action as will secure the adoption of
prompt measures. Tho State can run no risk—
on the contrary, she must profit both directly and
indirectly by the enterprise, because it must ne
cessarily become the great thoroughfnro, both of
trade and travel, between tho Atlantic and the
Gulf. Tho time has come—let the frionds of tiie
South-West be up and active.
Extract from tho presentments of tho Grand
jury of Macon county,(Biases Johnson,Foreman,)
at tho recent October Term of the Superior
Court.
As citizens of tiie South West wo fed a deep
interest in the success of tiie South Western Rail
Road. Our section of the State bus long suffered
by iu distance from a market for its staple produc
tions. While every oilier portion of tiie State,
have had their resources developed by railroads,
ami have now every facility for carrying off the
products of tiioir labor, wo have had no means of
transportation but tho slow and expensive wagon;
while it is estimated by those acquainted with the
subject, tlmt tiie driver ofthe cotton wagon would
make more at homeduring tiie picking season that
would transport by rail road the whole crop to
market. Under snch disadvantages, how can wo
complete in the production ot cotton with the
great and still growing west, with her numerous
navigable rivers.
Tho truth is the true resource* of South Wes
tern Georgia have never been proporly developed;
om; comity is still a groat forest of rich and highly
productive land, and we -need,, greatly uoed a rail-
road to devolopo its energies, to moke tiie white
aud to people with a teeming population, thoso
vast forest* that are now silent and unproductive.
No one who has looked ktlho history, the South
west and remarked its rapid progress for the last
IS years in wealth trad population, can fail to see
that it is destined One day to he iho greatest cotton
producing portion ofthe State. During the hut
fire vean the increase of its population and pro
duction has been nearly 60 per cent, and this too
under all the disadvantage* ofa distance from mar
ket, a bad road and great commercial embarrass
ment*. What may we not hope when we have a
Roil rood penetrating tiie very heart of our conn
try, connecting us on the one hand with tho At
lantia and anthe other with the Gulf of Mexico.
Our lands must largely increase in value; our cot
ton will bring u* on tho average better prices,and
our supplies will cost us less ; we find our
whole section will become far wore eligible, both
os n place of residence and as a field for the accu
mulation of weal til.
The stockholder* of the company will almost
of a certainty find it a profitable investment. In
three year* at least 100,000 bags of cotton will
pass over it to a market annually, and as the coun
try increases in its productions by tiie facilities the
railroad affords: tiie amount of our great staple
that will seek a market by its means will uecessa-
rally increase with the most rapid strides.
And when the road is completed and the Gulf
and tiie Atlanticjoined together by its means, the
passengers alone, who uust then pass over it
will ofthemselves pay to tiie company, a hand
some profit upon then* inrestment.
In conclusion wc wsuld recotmneud, most
heartily this great enterprise to our fellow citi
zens, os one of infinite importance to the prosper
ity of our section of ths state, and as oue in eve
ry way likely to result in profit to those who en
gage m its prosecution.

Latest from Mexico.
By the arrival of the propeller Fanny y outer
day wo received our files of VeraCruz papers to
the 12th imt., with our correspondence from that
city to the same date. The Fanny left Y’cra Cruz
on the 12th inst., and experienced for the first five
days out constant gales from the North.
The Fantiy brought 05 sick soldiers aud discharg
ed teamsters.
The ship Monterey arrived at Vera Cruz on the
12th imt. from New York, with government
stores and S. S. marines for the navy. There
had been no arrival from Blexico, and of course,
no further news from tiie army.
The following news we bike from ElArco Iris:
Padre Jaruutahad threatened to shoot all who
carried provisions to Vera Cruz.
Gen. Santa Anna wga at Tepnyaliualco.witii a
body of troops,to dispute the passage of tiie Amer
ican convoy which left Jalap.a on the 1st, nnd ar
rived at Puebla on the 4th. It is reported that the
train was in such haste to arrive at Puebla, that
it left in the road many men and wagons, who
were unable to follow the body of troops. Tho
camp at Puebla was besieged, mid hopes were
entertained of reducing it by starvation; which
accounts for tiie haste of tho American! to rein
force Col. Childs.
Geu. Herrera had collected about 1000 men,
principally of the National Guard, at Querctaro.
The troops are said to he of a hotter character
than those who have heretofore figured iu tiie
Mexican army.
In Jalnpathe robbers and guerrillas have full
sway, making v.*ar only upon their defenceless fel
low-citizens, and the Mexicun government of tiie
State of Vera Cruz were talking of adopting mea
sures to put them down.
We find in the Genius of Liberty of Oct. 3, that
Gov. Wilson had neurly recovered from his ill
ness.

Dr. Swnyua’M Compound Sjr rap of Wild Cherry.
Read tiie most remarkable cure of Consumption
ever placed upon record-—
Dr* S wayne—Dear Sir: I feel it a debt of grati
tude due to you—and a duty to tiie alllict-
cd generally, to offer my humble textiiuonv in
favor of vour Compound Syrup of \ViId
Cherry. Sonic three years since* I was violently
attacked with cold und Inflammation of the
Lungs, which was accompanied with a very dis
tressing cough, pain in tiie breast and lieud; a very
considerable discharge of offensive mucus from
the lungs, especially upon changes of weather,
however slight. At first I felt uo alarm about
my condition, but was pretty soon convinced that
I was rapidly goiug into consumption. I grew
daily weaker, und at length was scarcely able to
walk about or speak above a whisper, such was
the exceeding weakness of my lungs. During
this time I had tried various preparations und pre
scriptions, but found no relief—growing all thu
time worse. Just here I was advised and per
suaded by a dear friend tit Wilmington to make
trial of your Syrup of Wild Cherry. I must con
fess that previously I had been prejudiced against
patent medicines, and I am still against those
coming out of the bauds of empirics, but under
standing your claims to the profession and prac
tice of medicine, and having implicit fuitli in the
saying of my friends, I forthwith purchased of
Dr. Shaw, oue of your agents, a few bottles, and
commenced its use. My disease was at this time
of20or25 mouths' standing, consequently was
deeply seated. I found, however, considerable
relief from the use ofthe first four or five bottles.
But being a public speaker, 1 frequently attempt
ed to preach with my increasing strength, nnd
thereby ruptured those vessels that had already
begun to heal; iu this way. doubtless, my cure was
greatly retarded. In consequence of acting linn
imprudently, I had to use 12 or 15 bottles before
I was perfectly restored. I have no question, n
much smaller number of buttles would have
made me sound, but for the above jjiudiscretiou.
The Syrup allayed tho feverish habit, did away
the distressing cough, put a stop to the discharge
of matter from tho lungs, and gave them aud the
entire system good health. I have deferred offer-
tug this certificate till now, for the purpose of be
ing perfectly satisfied with the permanency ofthe
cu re, and now tlmt I feel perfectly well, / offer it
with pleasure. Rev. j. P. Jowja.t.

Wisfar’a llnNum ofU'ilil Cherry.
It is impossible for us to compress into our nar
row limits even n brief allusion to nil of the nu
merous cures that have been effected by Dr. Wis-
tar’s Balsam. We can only refur to a very few
us specimens of its general efficacy.
A few days ago,a ludv called at the ollice in fine
health, and looking as fohust’ns though she never
knew what sickness was. To our surprise, she
stated that until recently, she had lieeu sick for
between three und four years with what was sup
posed to be consumption—that she hnd n violent
cough, night sweats, with alternate chills nnd
fever, nnd every usual symptom of confirmed con
sumption. The result’ was, that she became so
emaciated as to present more the appearance of n
skeleton than a living being. Providentially, she
at this time, heard ofthe wonderful cures perform
ed by Dr. Wistaria Balsam of Wild Cherry, nnd
commenced using it herself. Tiie etlcct was, that
she began to get better at once. By degrees, the
cough left her, the chills and fever disappeared,
and m two months she again found herseJfin per
fect health.
