F JANE.
The earl ol rt’urtnn. whose nan e fig
ures in the Scottisli annals «»f the -ei in of
Charles the Second, had three daughters,
named Lady Francs, Lady Griz I. and
Ltidy Jane; the last being hvsev- ral years
the youngest and hv many degrees tin
mo-t beautiful. All the three usually re.
sided with their mother at the family s * I
in S irlingshire,Tint the two el lest were
■ occasionally permitted to attend theirs ah
erat Rdinbnrg. in order that they might
have s<une chance of oh’ainiri' lovers at
the court held there hv the D ■ k«• o'

constantly a? hoirw, and debarred from

Vie two marriagettihle ad es wefenjoyit g
all the rightsofeitv ~oei tv,spendug t eir
d ivs in thceompanv of their l»eanx, and
th**ir niuhts in dreaming of then. Lady
Jane led no pleasant life, amid the remote
and solitary s| lenders of a count ry.j tare.
At the* period when our s ory i pens.
Lady Jane’s ehttnns, f' o 'gh never *• en
in the e.-pilal, !n«d hegmi to make some
noise there, and tlte curiosity excited re
a|iec ing them, among the j • v.-nipart of
the viceregal court, had induced Lord
W .gton to confine her ladyship even more
strictly than heretofore, lest, perchance,
some gallant might make a pilgrimage to
his country scat, to behold her. He had
'even sent an express to have her confine I
to the precincts of ihe house and garden,
• and also to be a'tended hv a trusty female 1
servant; the consequence was that the
young lady complained most piteously to
•her old lady mother of the tedium and
ilisllessness of her 1 fe, and wished with all
her heart that she was as ugly, old, and
happy as her sisters.
Lord VVigton was not insensible to the
cruelty of his policy, however well he
might he convinced of i’s advantage and
necessity. Me loved his \ oung date ht-r
imore than the rest, and it was only in
obedience to what he conceived to tie the
commands of duty, that he subjected her
to this icstraint. His lordship, therefore,
felt anxious to alleviate in seme measure,
the ‘Jesagremens,’ of her solitary confine
ment, and knowing her to he fond of mu
sic, he had sent to her, by the last mes
senger, a theorbo, with which hefho’i she
would ho tibia m amuse herseil in away
very iwueh to her mind—not considering
that, as she could not play upon the in
strument, it would he little better to her
- v than an unmeaning toy. By the return
of his messenger, he receiv d a letter from
Ladv Jane, thanking him for the theorbo,
but making him aware of his over sight
and begging him to send some person who
could teach her to play.
The gentrv of Scotland tit that period
were in the habit of engaging private
teachers in their families, they werege.i.
. erallv voting men, of tolerable education,
and who had visited the continent. A
few davs after receiving his daughter’s
letter, it so happened that he was applied
to for employment by one of these useful
•spersonages, a tall and handsome youth;
about five-and-twenty. After
putting a few que.-tions, Ins lordsaip dis
covered that the youth was possessed of
niunv agreeable accomplishments; that he
was in particular, perfectly well qualified
to teach the theorbo, an ! had no ohjec
t.ons to eater the service of the young
ladv of quality, on!v with the proviso,
•.that he was to be spared the d sgrace «>1
wearing the family livery. Matters be.
ing thus arranged, next day saw our

forth the qualities of the young man, and
hoping she would find benefit hv his in
struction-, and would ho now more con
tent with her present residence.
It was Lady Jane’s practice every day
to take a walk prescribed bv her father,
in t he garden, on which occasion the coun
tess conceived herself ns acting up to the
v letter of her husband’s commands, when
she ordered Mr. Richard to attend his
pupil. This arrangement was exceeding
ly agreeable to Lady Jane, ns they
sometimes took out the thenrlwian ! added
music to the other pleasures of ihe walk :
however, to makeshort withn long story,
it would Have been a n«w problem ia na
fare, canid these young people have es
caped from falling in love- They were
constantly together, no company fre
,. quented the house, the mother was o!d
and infirm, and perfectly satisfied when
she knew that Lfffly itme was within the
limits prescribed hy her father. Lady
Jane was now in her eighteenth year, pfo.
ha My never had sven, and certainly never
1 had conversed with any man, having the
education and polish of a gentleman.
‘ Though Richard had not yet rt-dd his tale
■ of love, his genteel deportment, 'handsome
person, and certain sorts of attention,
which Jove only' nn dictate, had won her
heart before s’m knew it—Her only fi-ar
1 now was, tlvat she might betray herself:
and the more she admited, the more re*
served she became ‘oward him.
As for Mas'er Richard, it was no won

outside of the premises, proposed, hv a
large bribe, to secure his services in pm.

Richard promptly rejected ihe offer, but
on second thought saw fit to accept if.

to slacken their pace, and w«re thus ex

could not conceal her extraordinary boun

to part with a sly and dearlv beloved

of gaiitl. t of ad nir.a io t and remark, till
they reached the house of an .aequ.iin

a few minn'es Richard and Ladv Jan -

La enn'oruii yto a previous a rrang* ment,
Ladv Jane walked first, like a lady of
quality, and Richard followed chiselv

her servant: her ladyship was dressed in
her finest suit, and adorned with her fines'
jewels, all whic h she had hrnn lit wi'h hei
on purpose, in n s nail bun lie whie.lt sh«

whenever she went, she left behind her a

[From the Nr to York Tnnscript.\
'•'tic Dutchman :*•» i his 1,030 D>l!;ir
kill.
Away hack in the state of New York
lives a Dutch farmer, well to do in the
world, who always keeps hy him a thou
smd dollar bill. With tin’s bill in his
pocket, and a shabby Coat on his back,
he prides himself on playing tricks with
strangers—particularly such eountrv
merchants, as have recently commenc'd
business in t e neighborhood, and are no?
acquainted with his pecuniary circum-
S ances.
As an instance of this kind, lie went
la elv ton new merchant, with his clothes
a I in r.iLS, his toes .s'ickin t out through
his shoes, his hat without a C’o’.Vn, and
his he rd a fortnight old, and ordered a
few dollars worth of goods. The mer
chant started at him; hut as there could
he no great hazard in laying out tho nr
tides Ibi him, none of which were to he
cut, he executed the command, Wh n
tlie goods were ready, the merchant s’ar
ed s'ill more to hear his scurvy looking
customer ask him to charge them.
“Charge them!” exclaimed tho man of
the merchandise'— 4 *ha, ha, ha! we’re not
iathe habit ofeharging our goods foevc.
ry body. We keep a sharp lookout for
breakers,”
“W’on’f you sharge’em den?”
44 Not to you, I thank you. You must
have u better coat on your back to ex
pect credit from us.”
44 Den if you won’t sharge ’em,” said
the Dutchman with great moderation, 4t l
must dry and hay for ’em down, if so bw,
snppos n I can muster money enough.”
Then taking a thousand dollar bill from
his pocket, he extended if to the mor
chant with a sly leer on his face, and
said, 44 Wi 1 you shange dat?”
“That—what!—a thousand dollar bill.
Is it possible that a man of your appear
ance—”
4 'Waf, Mister, he’s you scar’t ha!
Did vou rider seen a fousand dollar bill
afore?”
44 A man of your appearance,” eontin
ned the merchant, in his astonishment,
4 ‘with a thousand dollar bill! I could
have sworn—”
“None o’ your swearing hern if you
ideas, Mishter; but give me my shange,
dat I mav be off to mine farm again.”.
“OflT’o your farm! A th msand dollar
bill ! XVlio are you. if I ma> be so bold ?”
44 Who he’s I? Wy don’t \ou know
vour own neighbors, man? M v name is
Frits Van Vogler—a poor firmer, rnit
no more ns one tmisan I access of lan If,
an dis small bill in mv uoeket. dat was—
so if you’ll shange if, and let me be gone,
I’ll dank you.”
“Change ii? Lord, sir! where should
I get money, of a morning, to change a
thousand doll ir bill?”
4 ‘l)en wat shall I do, M shter? You
won’t clrtis! me, nor vou wont shange
mv fousand dolla - hill ?”
4 Trust you! Mr Van Volger—that 1
will tn the amount of a thousand dollars,
if vou wish. You did’nt suppose I w.ir
afraid to trust you did you?’’ said the
merchant, growin ; u ore complaisant.
4 llaw, haw?” roared the Dutchman,
as lo al as he coulu laugh—you h«gins tn
haul in vour horns a little does vou!—
Sthrange wat wounder a shmall tonsand
dollar bill will work in a man’s good ohin
i >n! So vo'i will flrnst me now will vou ?”
/Certainly, certainly sir.,’
44 No, I’ll lie whipped if you shall—if so
he, sup osin I can find silfer enough in
mine hoket to bay you.” As he said
this, the Dutchman hauled our an old
s ocking full of dollars, paid for the goods,

TO THE PUBLIC.
How true it is, that modern Physicians, in
their ambition to excel in theirprofession; totrx!
plorethe vast fields of science by the aid of die
mistrv, and seek out new remedial agents, in
short to arrive at perfection in their practice by
means of Aiit alone,—entirely <vcrlook art'd ne--
gleet, as beneath their notice, the rich and boon
teou* stores of medicine, which the Almighty
has caused to spring out of the earth in every
clime I And how much more true it tsv that
while the American Physician looks to foreign
couniriesfor many of Ins most common arid ne
cessary article?, perpetually changing a* they
are. at the dictate of fashion or faiiy. he is sur
rounded in his own country with an endless pro
fusion of medical plants, sufficient to answer any
indication in disease, or to cure any curable din
order ;—and yet be is ignorant of their virtues,
and they are suffered to “ waste their healing on
the desert air.' 1
The effects of vegetable medicines upon the
system are temporary —those of minerals last
ing. The former exert their effects and pass
off-a-the latter, mercury in particular, actchemi
catty upon the solids, decomposing the bones,
and undermining the constitution by a slow and
sure destruction.
The congeniality, efficiency an! safety oI
vegetable remedies over mineral-, may be e»ti
mated by contrasting the ancient practice with
thte modern ;<or, tobnng it more immediately un
dcr our own observation, the Indian'practice with
that of the whites. Who, in America, lias not
known or heard of repea.cd inet-inces wherein
some decf'fcpid, unpretending fetrthle Indian, by
means of her simple remedies alone, has effect
edthe moat rapid end astonishing cure*, after
the whole Materia Medica of the common prac
tice, directed in the most skilful manner, has
failed 7 And who has not been surprised at
beholding the comparative ease and facility with
which the Indian frees himself from any dia
ease, and at the almost total absence of chronic
diseases among them ? Who has ever heard
of an Indian with a constitution broken «nd
r lined bv ill treatment ? And can a doubt tj.
Ist. that this happy exemption of Ihe snVage from
most of the ills which the flesh of civilized man
is heir to, is chiefly owing to the more genial and
safe remedies whicn he employs? This aston.
ishing difference ttt success, is a fair exemplifi
cation of the infinite superiority of the simple
and safe means of cure which God has created
for the benefit of his children, over those
which the. pride and the art of man have inven.
TEIJ.
From a long residence among a portion of
the aboriginal inhabitants of this country, and
an intimate acquaintance with the methods of
cure of some of their most successful practi
tioners, the proprietor of •* The Indian’s Pana
cea,” acquired a knowledge of some ol iheir
moat powerful and favorite remedies. From
these he selected siitih as were most efficacious
and appropriate, and after various experiments to
test theirprinciples and strength, he ha* combi,
ned them in the form here presented, ua the
most perfect and beneficial for the purpose for
which it is recommended.
The proprietor offers this preparation to the
public, with the consciousness that iie is placing
within its reach a remedy capable of relieving
many of his afflicted fellow being? who are suffer
ing under the various chronic and obstinate com
plaints to which it is applicable. To cuch it
will prove of incalculable value, as the means,
and in many cases the only means of relieving
.heir sufferings, and restoring diem once more
to health and happiness. This is net offered as a
common remedv, that may perchance be equally
good with many others now in use, but as one
which i* capable of saving life in many extreme
cases, when all the usual remedies fail. This ii
has done repeatedly ; and this is the reputation
it has obtained wherever it has been introduced.
It is only about three years since this prepara
tion was first presented to the public : but in that
short space of time, some hundreds of persons
might be found, who would solemnly declare that
they believed that their lives were saved by it,
and in most cases after they had tried many and
perhaps all the common remedies in vain. U her
ever it is known it is rapidly t oniing into use,
and this affords the most substantial and convinc.
ing proof ot its merits.
The value of the Panacea is most conspicuous
in those long standing and obstinate syphilitic
and scrofulous affections which have defied all
other remedies, and particularly in those cases
where mercury has been so lavishly used as to
cause distressing pains in the bones, nodes, mer.
curia! ulcers, derangement of the digestive or.
pans, &c. These it completely removes, and in
all cases it entirely eradicates the disease and
the effects of mercury, renovates the constitu
tion, and leaves the patient sound and welt. In
Rheumatisms and in ulcerated sore throat, its
happy effects are not less apparent, giving almost
immediate relief.
Taken in proper doses, The Indian’s Panacea
operates as an alterative and detergent; a dia.
phoretic, diuretic and laxative ; an antispasmo.
die and anodjme; and in proper cases, as a sto.
machic and emrnunagoge. Generally express
ed, it increases ail tne secretions and excretion
gives tone to the stomach, and excites action in
the glands in a particular manner. From these
principles its operation may be understood-
This medicine has been found highly useful in
many ambiguous disaaaes no: here specified, and
it has been used with wonderful success as a
Spring and Full purifier, by those who arc sub.
jeCt to complaints of the chest, and whose con.
stitutions require new vigor. Such persons will
do well to use two or three bottloe in small do
sex. Whenever a diet drink is considered nc.
M«iy, this Panacea, taken in a smei! close-,
will answer.all its purposes, in much lees time*,
at less expense, and in a far more agreeable man’
ner. than the common die: drink.
The certificate*. out of hundreds
similar which might he procured, are given to
show the effect of T»e I*D!a,v’s Panacea, in the
various compluntu therein mentioned ; and also
to exhibit in tho most ea'isiactorv manaor its su
periority over the ayrape tj common gga.

CASE OF SCROFULOUS ULCERS.
NEW-YORK, Sept. 10, 1830.
This may certify, that in the fall of 182& I was
seized by a swelling in ;ny neck and face, which
afterwards ulcerated and became large gastly
ulcers in my neck. After trying sever;.! phy
sicians to no advantage, I went to Philadelphia,
and placed myself under the care ol Drs. Pity*
sic and Beach, when, after repeated salivations
to no effect, I was pronounced totally incurable.
Afterwards I took twenty bvttles of Swaim's
Panacea, and right bottles of Putter's Cathvli.
eon, with no materia/ benefit. Despairing of
lily which had now become a burden to me, I
returned to nty parents in New-York, and gave
myseil up to a lingering death. Hearing of ihe
success of The Indian's P inner a, however, in
cases similar to my own, I was persuaded to try
it a* a last resort. To my great surprise, a/*
we!i as satisfaction, I soon found myself rapid
ly recovering, and upon taking seven bottler
the ulcers healed and I became perfectliy we
in the course of two months, and haVe remain*,
