It is singularly elficacious in renovating those constitutions which have been broken down by injudi cious treatment, or juveniie irregularities. In general terms, it is recommended in all those diseases which arise front impurities of the blood, or vitiation of the humors, of whatever name or kind. Some of the above complaints may require some assistant applications, which the circumstances of the case will dictate ; but for a general remedy or Purifi ratbr to remove the cause. T he Indian’s Panacea will generally be found sufficient. The following certificates, out. of hundreds similar which might be procured are given to show the effect of the Indian’s Panacea, in the various complaints therein mentioned ; anti also to exhibit in the most sa tisfactory manner its superiority over the syrups in common use. Charleston, Nov. 15,1831. During the last winter and spring, I was afflicted with a very severe and distressing Rheumatism, occa sioned by exposure in bad weather. I now take great pleasure in stating, that six bottles of Indian Pana cea. restored me to perfect health, and I confidently recommend it to all similarly afflicted. JOHN FERGUSON. King st. Charleston, July 12, 1831. I was afflicted four years with an ulcer in the leg, occasionally accompanied with erysipelatious inflama tion and an excessive pain in the leg and ancle joint.

Man hath a weary pilgrimage As through the world he wends ; And every stage from youth to age Still discontent attends: With heaviness he casts his eye Upon'he road before, And still remembers with a sigh The days that arc no more. To school the little exile goes, Torn from his mother's arms— What then shall sooth his earliest woes, When novelty hath tost its charms ? Condemned to suffer through the day Restraints which no rewards repay, And cares where love has no concern,’ Hope lengthens as she counts the hour* Before his wished return. From hard control and tyrant rules, The unfeeling discipline of schools, In thought he loves to roam ; And tears will struggle in his eve, While he remembers, with a sigh, The comforts of his home. Youth comes; the foils and cares oflifo Torment the restless mind ; Where shall the tired and harrassed heart Its consolation find ? Then is not youth, as fancy tells, Life’s summer prime of joy ? Ah no ! for hopes too long delayed, And feelings blasted or betrayed, The fabled bliss destroy ; And vouth remembers with a sigh The careless days of infancy. Maturer manhood now arrives, And other thoughts come on; But with the baseless hopes ofyouth Its generous warmth is gone ; Cold calculating cares succeed, The timid thought, the weary deed, The dull realities of tru h ; Back on the past he turns his eye, Remembering, with an envious sigh, The happy dreams of youth. So reaches he the latter stage Os this our motal pilgrimage, With feeble step and slow ; New ills that lattei state await, And old experience learns too late, That all is vanity below. Life’s vain delusions are gone by, its idle hopes are o’er, Yet age remembers with a sigh The days that are no more. SOUTHEY. THE MOTHER.—by chimes swain. A softening thought of other years, A feeing link to hours When life was ali too bright for tears, And hope sang wreathed with flowers; A memory of affections fled, Ot voices heard no more ; Stirred in my spirit when I read That name of fondness o’er. Oh, mother !—in that magic word What loves and joys combine ? What hopes, too oft, alas, deferred ’ What watchings—griefs—are thine 7 Yet, never, till the hour we roam, By worldly thralls oppressed, Learn we to prize that holiest home, A living mother’s breast. Ten thousand prayers at midnight pour’d Beside our couch of woes ; The wasting weariness endured To soften our repose ; Whilst never murmur marked thy tongue, Nor toils relaxed thy care ! * How, mother, is ihv he .* - ■uvm|, ■co pity and forbear ? What filial fondness e’er repaid, Or could repay the past? Alas, for gratitude decayed ! Regrets that rarely last! ’Tts only when the dust is thrown Thy blessed bosom o’er, We muse on all thy kindness shown, And wish wt'd lov’d the* more. ’Tis only when the lips are cold We mourn—-with late regret, ’Mid myriad memories of old— Tho days forever set; And not an act, nor look nor thought, Against thy meek control, But with a sad retuemb’rance fraught, Wakes anguish in the soul! On every land, in every clime, True to her sacred cause ; Filled by that influence suolime From which her strength she draws, Still is the mother’s heart the same ; The mother’s lot as tried ; And, oh, may nations guard that name With filial power and pride. From the Laurel. THE STAR AND THE LILY. The sun stepped down from his golden throne, And lay in the silent sea, And the lily had folded her satin leaves, For a sleepy tiling was she ; What was the illy dreaming about ? O what is that to you 1 And why did she open her drooping lid* And look at the sky so blue ? The rose is cooling her burning cheek, In the lap of the breathless tide— Thou hast many a sister fresh and fair, That would he by the rose’s side; He would love thee better than all the rest, And he would be fond and true— But the lily unfolded her weary lids, . And looked at the sky so blue. Now think thee, think thee, thou silly one ; How fast will the summer glide, And wilt thou wither a virgin pale, Or flourish a blooming bride ? O the rose is old and thorny and cold, And he lives on the earth said she, But the star is fair and he lives in the air, And he shall my bridegroom be. But what if the stormy cloud should come, And ruffle ihe silver sea ; Would he turn his eye from the distant sky ? To smile on a thing like thee ? O no, fair lily, he will not send One ray from his far ofT throne, The winds shall blow and the waves shall flow, And thou wilt be left alone. There is not a leaf on the mountain top, Nor a drop of evening dew, Nor a golden sand on the sparkling shore, Nor a pearl in the waters blue, That he has not cheered with his fickle smile, And warmed with his faithless beam— And will he be true to a pallid flower That floats on the quiet stream ? Alas for the lily ! sho would not heed, But turned to the skies afar, And bared her breast to the trembling ray, That shot from the rising star ; The cloud came over the darkened sky, And over the waters wide ; She looked in vain through the beating rain, And sank in the stormy tide. O. W. H. SHAKSPEARE —by edward everett. With a reverence as deep as honesty or manliness permits for the master geniuses of our race* —a reverence nourished T>y the fond and never intermitted study of their works, I may say that I cutch from this very study of their writings and characters, a conception, that, high as they rose, they might have risen higher. I can sometimes behold the soil ol the world upon their snow-white robes, and the rust of human passion upon the glittering edge of their wit. It was long ago said by the great Roman critic, that the good Homer sometimes nods; —and Shakspeare, the most brilliant ex ample unquestionably of a triumph over the delects of education —mental and morai— loo often exhibits traces of both. As he floats on eagle’s wings along what he nobly calls ‘ the brightest heaven ot invention,’ he. is sometimes borne, by an unchastened taste, in to a misty region, where the understanding endeavors in vain t° follow him ; and some times, as he swims with the swallow’s ease and swiftness along ibe ground, too confident of his power to soar when he wi 1 up to the rosy gates of the morning—he stoops, and stoops, and stoops, till the tips of his graceful pinions are sadly draggled in the mire< From the Metropolitan. COLERIDGE. * Coleridge,’ says Mr. Gill man, ‘ began the use of opium from bodily pain, (rheumatism,) and (or the same reason continued it tfll he had acquired a habit too difficult under hi:* own management to control. To him it was tbe thorn in the flesh, which will be seen in the following notes.’ 4 1 have never loved evil for its own sake : no! nor never sought pleasure for its own sake, but only as the means of escaping from pains that coiled around the body and wings of an eagle! My sole sensuality was not to be in pain.’—Note from Pocket Book. 4 The History of my own Mind for my own Im provement.’ Dec. 23d, 1824. ‘I wrote a lew stanzas three-and-twentv years ago, soon after mv eyes had been open ed to the true nature of the habit into which I had been ignorantly deluded by the seem ing magic effect of opium, in the sudden re moval of a supposed rheumatic affection, at tended with swellings in my knees, and pal pitations of the heart, and pains all over tne, by which I had been bed-ridden for nearly six months. Unhappily, among my landlord’s boons were a large parcel of Medical Re views and Magazines. I had always a fond ness (a common case, but most mischievous turn, with reading men who are at all dys peptic) for dabbling in medical writings, and in one of these reviews met o case which I fancied very much like inv own, in which a cure had been afft-cted by the Kendal black drop. In an evil hour I procured it—it works miracles—the swelling disappeared, the pains vanished; I was all alive, and all around me being as ignorant as myself, no thing could exceed my triumph. 1 talked of nothing else, prescribed the newly discovered panacea lor all complaints, and carried a bot tle about with me, not to lose any opportu nity of administering instant relief and speedy cure to all complainers, stranger or friend, gentle or simple. Need I say that my own apparent convalescence was of .no long con tinuance ; but what then ? the remedy was at hand, and infallible. Alas! it is with a bitter smile, a laugh of gall and bitterness, that I recal this period of unsuspecting de lusion, and how I first became aware of tbe maelstrom, the fatal whirlpool, to which 1 was drawing, just when the current was al ready bevond my strength to slem. tt “ * * # * m ‘ From that moment I was the victim of pain aiul terror; nor had I at anytime taken the flattering poison as a stimulus, or for any cravir.g after pleasurable sensations. I need ed none, and, oh ! with what unutterable sor row did I read the ‘ Confession of an Opium Eater,’ in which .the writer, with morbid va nity, makes a boast of what was my misfor tune, for he had been faithfully, and with an agony of zeal, warned of the gulf, and yet wil'ingly struck into the current! Heaven be merciful to him !’—April, 1826. These are awful words—we shudder and tremble as we read them. On the 7‘h day of January, 1828, about four years and six months before his death, there is a still more awful entry. rhara la a pnoKapri* in the Samson Ago nistes, in which Milton is supposed on sufh cient ground to have referred to himsell, that in which the Chorus speaks of strictly tempe rate men causelessy suffering the pains and penalties of inordinate days. O ! if he had, or rather if he could have, presented to him self, truly and vividly,-the aggravation of those pains, with the consciousness of their having originated in errors and weaknesses of his own ! Ido not say iliat he would not have complained of his sufferings, for who can be in those most trying sufferances of miserable sensations, and not complain of them ? but bis groans for the pain would have been blended with thanksgivings to the sanc tifying- spirit. Even under the direful yoke of the necessity of daily poisoning by narco tics, it is somewhat less horrible, through the knowledge that it was not from any craving for pleasurable animal excitement, but from pain, delusion, error, of the worst ignorance, medical sciolism, and when (alas! too late the plea of error was removed from my eyes,) from terror and utter perplexity and infirmity —sinful infirmity, indeed, but yet not a useful sin illness, that I brought my neck under it. Oh! may the God to whom I look for mercy through Christ, show mercy on the author of the ‘ Confessions of an Opi um Eater,’ if, as I have too strong reason to believe, his book has !>een the occasion of se ducing others into this withering vice through wantonness. From this aggravation I have, I humbly trust, been free as far as acts of tny free will and intention are concerned; even to the author of that work I pleaded with flowing tears, and with an agony of forewarning. He utterly denied it, but I fear that I had even then to deter, perhaps, not to forewarn.’ 1 His principal ailments he owed much to the state of the stomach, which was at that time so delicate, that when compelled to po to a large closet (shoe bin, its school name) containing shoes, to pick out a pair easy to his feet, which were always tender, and he required shoes so large that he could walk in them rather than with them, and the smell, from the number in this place, used to make him so sick that I have often seen him shud der, even in late life, when he gave an ac count of it. In tins note, containing an ac count of himself at school, he says, ‘From eight to Iburieen a playless day dreamer, a hellue librorum, my appetite for which was indulged by a singular incident: a stranger, who was struck by my conversation, made me free of a circulating library in King street, Cheapside.’ This incident, indeed, was sin gular: Going down the Strand, in one of his day dreams, fancying himself swimming across the Hellespont, thrusting his hands before him as in the act of swimming, his hand came in contact with a gentleman’s pocket; the gentleman seized his hand, turn ing round and looking at him with some an ger, ‘ What! to young, and so wicked ?’ at the same time accused him of an attempt to pick his pocket; the frightened boy sobbed out his denial of the intention, and explained to him how he thought himself Leander swimming across the Hellespont. The gen tleman was so struck and delighted with the novelty of the thing, and with the simplicity of the boy, that he subscribed, as before stated, to the library, in consequence of which Coleridge was further enabled to in dulge his love of reading. In his bathing ex cursions he greatly injured his health, and re duced his strength. In one of his bathing exploits, lie swam across New River in his clothes, and dried them in the fields on his back; from these excursions commenced those hddily sufferings which embittered the rest of his life, and rendered it truly one of sickness and strflering. * * * He was to be lound during play hours often with the knees of his breeches unbuttoned, and his shoes down at the heel, Walking to and fro, or sitting upon a step, as in a corner, deeply engaged in sorrto hook. This had attracted the nolice of Middleton, at that time a depu ty Grecian, and going up to him one day, asked ‘what was he reading?’ The answer was, ‘ Virgil. 5 ‘Are you, then,’ said Middle ton, ‘studying your lesson?’ ‘No!’ said Coleridge, ‘I am reading it for pleasure/ for he had not yw arrived at Virgil in his class studies. This struck Middleton as something so peculiar, that he p entioned it to the head matter, as Coieridge was then m the grammar school, (Which is the lower part ol the classical school,) and doing the work of the lower boys. The Rev. James Boyer, who was at that time head master, a quick discerning ntan, but hasty and severe, sent (or the master of the grammar school, and inquired about Coleridge; from* him he learnt that he was a dull and inapt scholar,and that hp could not be made to repeat a single rule of syntax, although he would give a rult* in his own way. This brought Coleridge before Boyer, and to this circumstance may be attributed the notice which he afterward took of him; the school ami llte scholar were every thing to him, and ColeridgeV neglect never went unpunished. I have* often heard him say, that he was so ordinary a looking boy, with his black head, that Boyer generally gave hint at the end of a flogging an extra cut, 4 for,’ said lie, ‘you are such an ugly fellow!’ ’ The following glorious passage occurs in Coleridge’s preface ‘o his ‘ Conciones ad Populum.’ There was infinitely more truth implied in it than he was aftewards disposed to allow.’ ‘‘There is a time to keep silence,* saith Solomon ; hut f proceeded to the first verac of the fourth chapter of the Ecclesias tes, ‘and considered all the oppressions that were done under the sun ; and behold the tear of stieh as were oppressed, and they had no comforter; and on the side of their op pressors there was power,’ I concluded this was not the time to keep silence; for truth should be spoke at all times, but more es pecially at ihnse time 6 when to speak the truth is dangerous.’ From the U. S. Gazette. THE TAKING OF ALGIERS. In the devastation of war, when eities and kingdoms yield to the sword of the conque ror, individual miseries are lost sight of, m the aggregate of suffering that such events produce. In the broad blaze of glory which the conquest lights up, no one stops to watch the going out of an individual taper of human life. The shout of the host of victors drowns the death sigh of him who is yielding up his breath for his country’s defence. Who is he t and we put it to the consciences of our readers, beseeching them to think, as they would ask for sympathy in their own alflic tions—who is he--and why not she? fur women, too, must know that her sex suffers when a city is stormed ; who is he, or she, that has read of the breaking up of the ‘ nest of pi rates’ by the French—that has seen the ‘sceptre depart’ from Ishmnel—that has care fully read of the defence and its cost—of the victory and the lives that purchased it—that has afterwards sat down and thought so lemnly of the individual misery which a con quest ha 9 produced ? Come then, let us enter into the house of affliction, where the Mahometan mother is kneeling over the dead body of her son—herself a widow—her lips bathed in blood from the gaping wound on the cold breast before her, and her streaming eyes raised toward the saoird tomb nt which her son had not yet bowed. No pen can trace her feelings; they are the deep, unut terable throbs of a mother’s heart; the inta ffir>a!!(>n of man hath not conceived her an guish. All a mother’s pains, in birth and death, are hers alone. She has watched in vain for one sign oflife ; she has called loud ly to her first bom—her only son—but the voiceless tongue hath returned no answer.— She hath gazed with unutte r able fondness upon his face, but his dim, glazed eye, hath not moved in iho socket. She has pressed her burning kisses on his lips; but their rigid coldness had) sent back a chill to her heart. She has laid her hands against hl heart; she has pressed her bared bosom upon his manly chest ; hut there is neither throbbing nor warmth. The life sigh of her own pulsa tion is unanswered. She screams aloud in the bitterness-of her certain desolation; hut there is no reply, no notice of sympathy re turned—the echo ot her erv mingles with the shouts of the victors. She sinks down in hit ter consciousness that she is alone on earth, childless and a widow. ‘Oh, had he but life —could he but breathe a mother’s name, though he were but idiotic or decrepit—could he but give one sign of recognition, I would drag him from the house where new ones rule, and, like the persecuted Hagar, flee away with him into the wilderness; good angels would hear a mother’s erv, and waters would spring up from the burning sands to moisten bis parched lips.’ But he is dead! and the convulsive spasms of her face show that the life of a mother—even an Algerine mother—is bound upon the existence of her son. Is there one mother in America who can doubt that every mother in Algiers who has lost a son in the siege—how many did lose son, father, husband, all !—felt less than that? What an aggregate of misery is a splendid conquest. A GREEK LANDLORD—CORINTH. From Stephens’s new ‘ Incidents of Travel.’ • * * Our servant had talked so much of the hotel at Corinth, that perhaps the idea of bed and lodging was rather too prominent in our reveries as we approached the fallen city. He rode on before to announce our coming, and, working our way up the hill through narrow’ streets, stared at by all the men, followed by a large represent a fit',,, fro m -the juvenile portion of the modern Corinthians, and barked at by Hie dogs, we turned into a large enclosure, something like a harnvard, on which opened a ruined balcony forming the entrance to the hotel. Demetrius was standing before it with our host, as unpromi sing a looking scoundrel as ever took a tra veller in. He had been a notorious eaptairi of brigands; and when his lawless band wns broken up and half of its number hanged, he could not overcome his disposition to pry upon travellers, hut got a couple of mat reuses and bedsteads, and set up a hotel at Corinth. Demetrius had made a bargain P.,r us at a price that made him hang his head when tie told it, and we were so indignant at the ex tortion that we at first relused to dismount. Our host slood aloof, being used to such scenes, and perfectly sure that, after storming a little, we should he glad to take the ontv beds between Padras and Athens. In the end, however, we got the better both of him and Demetrius; (or, as he had fixed separate prices for dinner, beds, and broaleftist, we went to a 1 ttle Greek coffee-house, and raised half Corinth to cet us something to oat, and paid him only for our lodging. We had a fine afternoon before us, md mir first movement was to the ruins of a temple, the only monument of antiquity in Corinth. The city has been so often sacked and plun dered, that not a column of the Corinthian order exists in the place from which it derives its name. Seven columns of the old temple are still standing, fluted and of the Doric order, though wanting in height the usual proportion to the diameter; built prohihlv before that order had attained its perfection, and long before the Corinthian order was invented ; though when it was built, by j whom, or to what god it was consecrated, ! antiquaries cannot agree in deciding. Con trusted with these solitary columns o r unknown antiquity are ruins of yestr Houses falien, burned, and blackjvilh as if the wretched had fled\ the btaze of their dwellings; and high au the ruined city, now as in the days when tt. i Persian and Homan invaded it, still lowers the Acropolis, a sharp ami naked rock, rising abruptly a thousand feet from the earth, inaccessible and impregnable under the sci ence of ancient war; and in all times of inva sion and public distress, from her earliest I history down to the hhnidy days of the late revolution, the refuge of Ht inhabitants. a It was late in the afternoon when we set out for tlie Acitpolis. About a mile frotlv the city we came to the foot of the kill, and \ ascended hv a sleep and difficult path, wilh> many turnings and windings, to the first gate. ►Having been in the saddle since early in the morning, we stopped several times to rest, and each time lingered and looked out with admiration upon the wild and beautiful sce nery around us; and we thought of the fre quently recurring times armies had drawn up before the our feet, and the inhabitants, in terror and confusion, had. hurried up this path and taken refuge within the gate before us. * Inside the gate were Ihe ruins of a city, and here, too, we saw the tokens of ruthless war; the Are-brand was hardly yet exrin gui-died, and the hou-es were in ruins.— Within a few years it had been the strong hold an I refuge of infidels and Christians, taken and retaken, destroyed, rebuilt, arui destroyed again, and the ruins of Turkish mosques ami Christian churches are mingled together in undisfmguishahle confusion. This enclosure is abundantly supplied with water, issuing from the rock, and is capable of con taining several thousand people. The foun tain of Pyrene, which supplies the Acropolis, \ called the most salubrious in Greece, is cele brated as t fiat nt which Pegasus was drinking when taken by Bellerophon. Ascending , among ruined and deserted habitation*, we ‘ came to a second gate flanked bv towers.— A wall about two miles in circumfi rence en closes the whole summit of the n ek, inclu ding two principal points which still rise above the rest. One is crowned with a tower, the other with a mosque, now in ruins; proba bly erected where once stood a heathen tem ple. Some have mistaken it for a Christian church, but all agree that it is a place built and consecrated to divine use, and that, for unknown ages, men have gone up to this cloud-capped point to worship their Creator. It was a sublime idea to erect on this lofty pinnacle an altar to the Almighty. Above us were only the unclouded heavens; the sun was setting will) that brilliancy which at tends his departing glory nowhere hut in the East; and .he sky was glowing a lurid red, as of some great conflagration. The scene around and below was wnndmusly beautiful. Mountains and rivers, seas and islands, rocks, forests and plains, thrown together in perfect wantonness, and yet in the most pefect har mony, and every feature in the landscape consecrated by ihe richest associations. On one aide of the Saronic Gulf, with its little islands, and JEgina and Sslamis, stretching off to ‘ Sunium’s marble height,’ with the ru ins of its temple looking out mournfully upon the spa ; on the other, the Golf of Corinth or Lepanto, bounded by the dark aPd dreary mountains of Cythseron, where Acteon, ga zing nt the goddess, was changed into a stag, and hunted to death hv his own hounds ; and where Bacchus, with his train of satyrs and frantic bacchantes, celebrated his orgies. Beyond were Hel con, sacred to Apollo and the Muses, and Parnassus, covered with snow. Behind us towered a range of moun tains stretching away to Argos amt the an cient Sparta, and in front was the dim outline of the lemple bf the Acropolis at Athens. — The shades of evening gathered thick around ‘* while we remained on ihe top of the Acropolis, and it was dark long before ive readied our locanda. Go to Church. —There is no one tl ing which helps to establish a man’s character and standing in soeienv, more than a steady attendance at church, and a proper regard for the first day of the week. Every head of a family should go to church, as anexamp e to its members, and every branch of a family should go to church, in imitation of tHe exam ple of parents who have loved them, and watched over their best interests. Lounging in streets and bar rooms on the sabbath is a bominable, and deserves severe censure, be cause it lays the foundation of habits which ruin and soul. Many a young’ man can date the cmmnencment of his dissi pation, which made him a burden to himself and his friends, and an ohjict of pity in the sight of his enemies, to his Sunday debauch ery. Idleness is the mother of drunkeness— the Sabbath is to young people generally an idle day. therefor e if it be not propeily kept, it were better struck out of existence. Go to Church !—lf you are a young man just entered upon business, it will establish’ your credit : what capitalist would not soon er trust anew beginner, who instead of dissi pating his time, his character and his money in dissolute company, attended to his busi ness on business days, an<l on the Sabbath np peared in the house of God. Go to obureh ! with a contrite heart, and bending a knee at the throne of your Maker, pour out a sincere thank offering for the mercies of the past week,— Balt. Pat. Henry Clay’s doings with the great bank. — By the examination of the books of the Bank of the United States, it has been proved that Henry Clay has received from the mother bank seventeen thousand dollars, be— sides what he has received from the branches; which it is supposed amounts to not far from twenty thousand more. This he has received* as payment for services as an attorney for the hank, in defending its actions in courts of law. This may all be perfectly honest. Btrt when it is known that Clay once opposed the same Frank on constitutional grounds,men can not helpasfci’ g vvhat has altered, his opinions? Daniel Webster also opposed the U.

What has changed him ? How much Mr. Bond has re ceived we dt> not know. This we do know— he is the hank’s attorney.
