Important from Mexico.
recall of Santa Anna.
Captain Fillette, of the schooner Amphitrite,
which arrived last evening, from Havana, on 13th
inst., reports that three Mexican Commissioners ar
rived in that city, on the British mail steamer from
Vera Cruz, on the 9th, and left the next day for Ja
maica, to communicate with Santa Anna, and in
duce him to return to place himself at the head of
affairs.
These Commissioners are deputed by the revolu
tionary party, which by our last accounts was uni
versally successful, every slate but three being un
dertheir control.
When we last heard fjom Santa Anna, a few
weeks since, by way of Panama, he was still at
Carthagana. The Panama papers, however, men
tioned'a report that hejwas about to embark from Car
thagena, contemplating a return to his native land,
to avail himself of the general dissatisfaction with
Arista’s administration. It is probable that the ex
ile removed to Jamaica to be in closer and more reg
ular communication with his friends, and as Vera
Cruz is in possession of his party, we may expect to
hear before many days of his landing there, and sue.
cessful entry into the capital.
Mr. Hargous also arrived at Havana from Vera
Cruz, on the steamer. He is said to be on his way
to tins city.
The brig Adims Gray, left Havana, for this port,
on site morning of the 13th.

The ship Lady of the West, from Bristol for New Or*
leans, was lost at sea on the 15th of December. The

It is reported in London that Lord Clarendon will soon
supersede Lord John Bussell as Foreign Secretary.
Much alarm was felt on aceouut of the non-arrival, at
her proper time, of the Mail Steam Ship from Australia.
She had a million sterling in gold on board.
France.—Austria, Russia, and Prussia, have at length
recognized the French Empire.
The Paris Journal La Patrie, denies that the occupa

Rhode Island Senator —New York, Jan. 20.
The Whig Caueus of the Rhode Island Legislature
nominated Samuel G. Arnold for United Staes

Fire—Destruction of Property. — New York,
Jan. 20.—A large quantity of goods belonging to
Warwick Clyde Print works was destroyed by fire
on Tuesday.
May a Gentleman wear a Frock-coat at an
Evening Party? —The N. Y. Home Journal , in
a recent article upon changes in fashions, says:
“The disputed question—May a gentleman
wear a frock-coat at an evening party ! seems
to have been decided in the affirmative; and,
accordingly, young gentlemen take particular
pleasure in wearing that long, obnoxious gar
ment, with the additional innovation of black
neckerchiefs. White waistcoats are generally
discarded, and white kids yield precedence to
gloves of color.”
Repudiation in Europe. —The Queen of Portu
gal has recently issued a decree virtually repudia
ting the financial obligations of her Government.—
By this decree all the five per cent, and four per
cent, stock of that kingdom is converted at a blow,
without compensation, into three per cents. That
a few new States in a Republican Confederacy
should dishonor their obligations has furnished a
fruitful theme for vituperative and indiscriminating
abuse against this country, as if a natural result of
republican institutions. We have no excuses for
the dishonor that attaches to these Stales ; but, at
the same time, are curious to see what excuses for
regal repudiation will be found by those so prompt
to find in it an argument against free institutions.
This blow will fall heavily upon the English stock
holders, who hold no less than fifty millions of dol
lars in these repudiated stocks, or more than half
of the public debt of Portugal. —Boston Atlas.

THE INFANT DRUMMER,
OF MACON. GA.
NOTICES OF'THE PRESS.
The Infant Drummer— ls a prodigy beyond a shad
ow of a doubt. On Saturday evening, at St. Andrew’s
Ilall, we could imagine that Old “Dominie Sampson ,”
could he have stepped out from the “wizard’s page”
which records his history, into the form and perception
of a living man, would have articulated “pro-di-gious!”
with an energy and frequency that would have taxed his
antiquated jaws to the utmost of their power. In truth,
the child's every performance is prodigious ; in the geni
us exhibited by this mere baby, just from his mother’s
arms, in his perfect oommand of time; his kindling en
thusiasm under the inspiration of music ; in the torrents
of sounds, (and sound that is ever melodious) which are
drawn from the drum by his tiny arms. We are com
pletely at fault ; we do not understand it; we can not de
scribe it ; we could not have believed it had we not seen it.
The ehiM is a wonder ! He is something more—he is a
study for the mental philosopher. Reader, if you are
desirous, once in your life, to behold an unquestionable
prodigy, go and see the Infant three year old Drummer.
Savannah Georgian.
The Infant Drummer. —We have seldom been more
agreeably entertained, or more profoundly astonished, than
we were last evening at St. Andrew’s Hall. It is a sight
unique, curious, and in a high degree pleasing, to see a
wee bit ofa boy, with arms scarcely bigger than the drum
sticks he wields with such consummate skill, —life, energy,
and spirit in every motion, dignity in every step, martial
bearing in his air, and the tire of enthusiasm and intelligence
beaming in his eye and kindling o’er his face, marching
with measured :tep to his own melody, and scattering
around him like radiant beams, the finest and most brilliant
tones of fiis instrument—the man who can look upon it, and
feel no pleasurable emotion, hath forgotten that he ever
was a child!
They name him rightly when they call him a prodigy—
the Drummer is truly a wonderful little creature, and to
have seen and to have heard him will be a pleasing thought
for many a day to come. —Savannah Republican.
A Card to the Public.
The Manager of the Concerts given by the Infant Drum
mer with the view of giving a series of Musical Entertain
ments, in the principal cities of the South, including the
child’s native State, would most respectfully call the atten
tion of the citizens of this place, and the public generally, to
a few considerations in relation to this gifted, renowned and
truly illustrious child,who has won for himself, during the
last twelve or fifteen months, by the exhibition of his unac
countable innate and precocious genius, as more particular
ly developed by his extraordinary, astounding and uncon
ceivable feats of skill on the drum, a celebrity unparalleled
in the history of the world, in the biographies of the most
distinguished personages of this or any other age, or even in
the wild and imaginative theories of ancient Mythology.
The Infant Drummer has iust returned from an almost
unprccented successful tour through the Eastern, Northern
and Western States, including Canada, where he has been
the subject of more laudation, and complimentary notice,
from the press and the masses “generally, than any artistic
performer that has ever appeared upon the stage of this, or
any other country not excepting Jenny Lind. And the
encomiums and high-wrought eulogies which he has re
ceived, and is still receiving, is amply corroborated by the
unsolicited testimony, and unqualified approbation of the
most distinguished musical critics, and by cards, letters, and
speeches from various eminent personages, including the
Governors of the States and Mayors of cities, through which
he has passed : and others, among whom may be mention
ed the late Hon. Henry Clay—all, with unanimity and en
thusiasm, acknowledged their surprise and admiration, and
all of which is endorsed aud confirmed by the respectable
and crowded audiences, and the plaudits and huzzas of the
hundreds and thousands that have greeted him wherever he
has performed,—on his appearance at Charleston, being hi?
first appearance at the South.
Mayor Hutchison called upon the manager, inviting the
Infant Drummer to give a private entertainment at his own
residence, at which his Honor presented the child with a
handsome sum of money, accompanied by a note expressing
his astonishment and appreciation.
It would be too tedious to enumerate and particularize all
the marks of approbation which were extended to him by
the citizens of Charleston alone. By way of ex pressing the
obligations we owe to the citizens of that place in behalf
of the Infant Drummer, the following marks of their esteem
are enumerated : A full Uniform, presented to him by the
Cadets of the So. Ca. Military Institute ; a Silver Goblet
and Salver, presented by the Washington Light Infantry,
with an appropriate inscription ; a unique and tasty uniform
presented the Vigilant Fire Company; a beautiful Silver
Knife and Fork, presented by Capt. Berry, of the steamer
“Marionand a massive Silver h ire Horn, by the German
Fire Company, including many neat and valuable presents
made by private individuals, accompanied by commendato
ry notes of appreciation.
It might not be out of place here to mention, that while
performing at Columbia (S. C.) his Excellency Gov. Man
ning, entered the Concert Room, just as the child was com
mencing, when he instantly struck up and rattled ofF“Hail
to the Chief,” with fine effect. After the performance, the
Governor addressed the child in some very complimentary
remarks, and presented him with a handsome, sum of money.
On his first appearance in his native State at Augusta, the
citizens of the place fully proved by their raptuous applause
and distinct marks of approbation, that he was an exception
to the general rule, that a “prophet is not without honor
save in his own country,” and notwithstanding the weather
was very unfavorable, his Coccerts were densely crowded,
and included the first families in the place.
Among other evidences of their appreciation, the Clinch
Rifles voted him a full Uniform which was worn by the
Infant Drummer, at his fburta Concert in that place/they
voted him an Honorary Member of their Company, and
presented with handsome embossed cards including a Certi
tificate, of his Membership aud a testimony of their appre
ciation of his extraordinary merits.
Among the many rich and valuable presents made to this
child at the North, are four Uniforms, presented by the Mili
tary of New Y ork and Philadelphia. Major Dutton, of the
United States Army, a veteran of the last war, has also pre
sented him with a Brass Drum, a valuable relic of that war
which he used during the exciting scenes of 1814, on which
he performs in connection with the one presented by the
Brooklyn Brass Band.
To say that this child is a good drummer, and that he
beats the drum with the skill ayd precision that is astonish
ing, or that he is ji perfect drummer and cannot be excelled,
all this language is tame and trite when compared with the
expression of the feelings experienced while listening to the
perfect concord and witnessing the energy and skilf ul move
ments of this Infantile Genius in the Concert Room. His
performance must be seen to be appreciated, as it is univer
sally acknowledge by all who have heard him, that no lan
guage can be employed emphatic enough to express or con
vey an accurate idea of the pleasure and deeply interesting
sensation elicited by this “neplus ultra” of Nature’s Won
ders. The South, and Georgia more particularly,will, un
doubtedly, proudly proclaim him her pride arid glory.

THE season is fast approaching when this valuable manure
should be used. The experience of those who have used it
proves, (if we believe their agricultural essays, which we do not
doubt) that even the cotton planter is doubly, and sometimes
trebly paid by its application.
Dr. E.T. Taylor’s experiment applied to pine lands near Col
umbus, on corn and peas, proves that it much more than doubly
paid him Gardens are greatly benefited by it, producing vege

Messrs. J. El. Warner &.Co., Utiea, N. Y., [Agents
lor Seth W. I’owle.! —Gentlemen, I have seen notices of
cures performed by “Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cher
ry.” I have been troubled with soreness in my throat,
attended with severe and painful cough. lam now don
lilted to my house in stormy and foggy weather, cold
winds,&c. My bodily health is feebfe, and I am now
about fifty-five years of ago. Titis tenderness of mv
throat came on about the year ISU6, and has troubled
me in my private and professional business, so thatt I
have never been free from it since. I think my ease is'a
hard one for the trial of your medicine, but I enclose to
you one dollar, which I understand is the price. Please
end me a bottle. If this has a good effect, I shall need
to send to you again.
Yours, respectfully,
J. S. PALMER.
Lenox, Nov. 13. 1848.
.1. E. Warner & Co.—Gentlemen, about two weeks
since, you sent me a bottle of Wistar’s Balsam of Wild
Cherry. I have taken nearly all of it, and find so much
relief in using it that I inclose two dollars for two bot
tles more. My cough which had become very severe
and was wearing me out very fast, has nearly subsided.’
I raise without much effort by coughing, and the tender
ness in my throat is very much relieved. It seems to me
to be the only medicine to which I c;m look lor perma
nent relief. Respectfully yours,
J. S. PALMER.

Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps,
Manufactured by the proprietor exclusively, at Schie
dam, in Holland, by a process peculiar to his own fac
tory. It is flavored and medicated, notby the common
harsh berry, but by the choice botannical variety of the
aromatic Italian juniper berry, whose more vinous ex
tract is distilled and rectified with its spirituous solvent
and thus becomes a concentrated tincture, ol exquisite
flavor and aroma, altogether transcendant in its cordial
and medicinal properties, to any Holland Gin hereto
fore known.
In Gravel, Gout and Rheumatism ; in obstructions o
the Bladder and Kidneys its effects arc prompt, decid
ed and invariably reliable. Arid it is not only a remedy
for these maladies, but in all cases i„ which thev are
produced by drinking bad water, which is almost uni
versally,the cause of them, it operates a a sure preven
tivc.
The distressing eilect upon the stomach, bowels and
bladder oftravellers, new residents, and all persons un
accustomed to them, produced by the waters of nearly
all our great inland rivers, like the Ohio, Mississippi
ami Alabama, from the large quantity of decayed veg
etable matter contained in them, in a state of solution
in well known ; as is also that of the waters oflime
stoue regions in producing Gravel, Calculi,ind Slone in
the Bladder. The Aromatic Schiedam Schnappsisan
absolute corrective of all these injurious properties of
bid water, and consequently prevents’ the diseases
which they occasion. It is also found to be a cure and
preventive of Fever and Ague, a complaint caused by
the conjoint eflects or vegetable malaria in the atmos
phere. and vegetable putrescences in the waters u
those districts in which it principally prevails. The
Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is consequently in great
demand by persons travelling, or about to settle in those
parts of the country, especially ; as well as by many in
every community where it has become known on ac
count of its various other remedial properties.
In all cases of a dropsical tendency, it is Tenerally
the only remedy required, when adopted in the early
stages of the disease. In Dyspeptic maladies, when
taken in proper quantities, as a diet drink, and especial
lv at dinner, it is found by uniform experience to be em
inently efficacious in the most obstinate cases when
even the best of the usual remedies have failed to af
ford more than mere temporary relief. In cases of
Flatulency, it is an immediate and invaluable specific ;
and it may be administered in diluted and proportionate
quantilies even to young infants, in all those paroiysmß
ol griping pain in the stomach and bowels to which they
are especially subject, as well as in the colic of grown
persons.
Its judicious adoption in connection with the princi
pal meals, or when a sense of exhaustion dictates its use
never fails to relieve the debility attendant upon pro
tracted Chronic maladies, low temperaments and ex
hausted vital energy, by whatever cause induced.—
I’hesc are facts to which many of the most eminent
medical men, both in Europe and the United States,
have borne testimony and which are corrobated by their
h.gliest written autnorities.
I'lie Arum atic Bchiedam Schnapps is put up in good
strong buttles, neatly covered and labeled,accompanied
by an Essay upon its properties and uses. For sale by
the principal Druggists in this city and United States.
UDOLPHE WOLFE, Importer, No. 22 Beavekit.
HOLLAND GIN AS A MEDICINE.
In our last number we accompanied the publication
ol a circular on this subject, Irom our lellow citizen
Udolphe Wolfe, Esq., with a brief commentary, expres
sive of our own views. Since then we have been em
ploying this agent, and thus tar with favorable results.
But we arc m receipt of several communications on
the subject Irom medical men, which serve to show that
Mr Wolfe’s Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is very ex
tensively in use, and in the hands of physicians, is
proving itself as a stimulating diuretic to be eminently
successful alter other medication with this intent had
been tried in vain. la one of the cases thus reported
abdominal dropsy has been cured, and the necessity of
upping averted ; and in another disliessing case” of
gravel, so called, has been entirely removed by the
passage ofa calculus of'considerable size, which is as
cribed to the use of only two bottles of this article.
We know not the object of Mr W’olfo in designating
his preparation by the singularly uncuphonious name
of “Schnapps,” rior of hia denominating it in his ad
vertisements, the ‘ concentrated Tincture of Juniper ’
instead of perpetuating its ancient title of Holland Gin.
It is true that he admits it to be norfiing else than the
latter article in its pure state, unadulterated by noxious
drugs, and hence he contradistinguishes it Irom Gin of
commerce, nearly all of-which, as is well known, is
manufactured here and elsewhere from inferior whiskev
and refuse drugs. The name he has given it, however,
may serve the purpose . (designating his article, as pre
pared exclusively for medical purposes, and thus com
mend it to physicians lor whose convenience it is on
sale only by reputable druggists and apothecaries.
As respects its medicinal and curative effects, we un
derstand him to claim only that it is a pure and reliable
article ol Holland Gin , and as such worthy of the con
fidence of physicians, inthose diseases far” which thev
are wont to prescribe it.and’have hitherto only been
restrained, by finding it impracticable to obtain the ar
ticle in a pure state. Nor skouK. any prejudice against
alcoholic medicine deprive the afflicted u! the benefit o
this article, which from time immemorial has held its
place among the remedial agencies of the Materia Med
ina, if it be found worthy ofconfidcnce by continued ex
perience. At all events, those wtio persist m the cm‘
ployment and toleration oi'other alcoholic mediemes
as tinctnres, bitters, d-c., and especially those who pre
scribeCin under any circumstances, must all unite in
giving the preference to a pure article over the manifoUJ”
adulterations so rife in the market. ATr Wolfe liberal-,
ly supplies physicians with a sample bottle for analysis,
and trial,as set forth in his circular, and slakes theff
reputation of the remedy upon the innocence, safety,
and efficiency of his Holland Gin, when used under
medical advice ; and pledges his own caaracterin busi
siness that the article ill not disappon: any wbo use it
