cost, valuing cotton at 20 cents per pound.

Stuy at Home, it You Have One.
Mr. F. L. B. Goodwin, a gentleman of this
State, who went to California last spring to
mend his broken fortunes, writes back the
following letter :
“If those restless, dissatisfied persons who
think that every other place is better than
home, would take the advice of many who
have learned by experience, they would remain
where they are. It cannot be dented that al
most every new country, especially California,
possesses many advantages over the older
States, and presents many alluring induce
ments to the young and energetic ; but tell all
who contemplate leaving home and its hallow
ed associations, to remember that “distance
lends enchantment to the view,' 1 and that in
most instances it is better to endure temporary
inconveniences and reverses of fortune than
“fly to ills they know not of.'’ The majority
of those who have left the South to seek for
tunes in Brazil, Mexico or the Western wiids,
have experienced sad and bitter disappoint
ments. Fruitless enterprises, dissipation,
ruined health, and perished hopes have resulted
from following the wares of excitement which
have so long lashed the Pacific slope.”
Manv years ago the writer of this notice and
an invalid physician, while visiting the Island
of Sk Croix for their health, experienced and
witnessed many surprising and beneficial
offeGis of the Rum there produced upon many
of the invalids who wete, like ourselves, seek
ing health, and upon inquiry and investigation,
obtained a full history of its medicinal lirtues.
was delighted and surprised, and determin
ed to make it the basis of a Tunic and llestora
tire Medicine. The result of his labors was a
glorious success for himself and suffering hu
manity. The celebrated Plantation Bitters
was thus made knowtf to the world. Being an
article of real merit, funded on new principles
and relying wholly upon the vegetable king
dom for its s effects, it worked a rapid revolution
in the treatment of phyiscal debility.
