At my very I o.vest stale I cum* ! mewed the use of this Specific. 1 took the first dose at night in a little herb tea, sweetened, which threw me ill a gentle perspiration, and procured for mu a good night’s rest. I continued to take tlie medicine as directed, and in about five d iys my cough was completely stopped and have not had any return since.

Having recommended the Use of De I .a Monte rat's Columhian Vegetable Specific in my own private practice f r some time pa-t and having wit nessed its decided efficacy in many cases w Inch h id previously resisted the u>ual remedies, I now with much pleasure give my testimony in it* fa vour. hv stating, that I hive presented the Spe cific with great success ia Asthmas, Rheumatic Indimimtion, or Inflammation and Subercies of the lungs, cuughs. colds, hoar~eno*«, spitting of blood, consumptions and catarrhal depletions on the breast. The length of time many of the dis eases have been cured, convinces me. that tliey are permanent and may, with propriety, bo said, that its healing qualities rank it superior to any other remedy of tlie present day.

He had lost his wife and in the emigrating spirit of our people was transporting his all to a new country, where he might again begin the world Arriving towards evening at a small island, he landed therewith the inten-1 tion of encamping for the night. Alter remaining for a short time, he determined to visit the opposite shore, for the purpose probably, of purchasing provisions; and telling his children that he would soon, return to them, he paddled ofl, leaving j them alone on the island. Unfortunately , lie met on the shore with come loose com puny who invited him to drink. He be came intoxicated, and in attempting to re-, turn to the island and in the night was drowned. The canoe floated away and j no one knew of the catastrophe until the, following day. The poor deserter! children,in the mean J while, wandered about the uninhabited is j land, straining their little eyes to catch a ! glimpse ol their lather. i\ight came, and j they had no lire, no food—tio l>ed to rest! upon and parent to watch over them. I he! weather was extremely cold, and the old-1 est child though hut eight years of age, remembered to have heard that persons who slept in the cold were sometimes chilled to death. She continued, there fore, to wander about; and w'lien the youg or children, wore out with latiguo and drowsiness, were ready to drop into slum* her. she kept them awake with amusing or alarming stories. At last, nature could hold out no longer, and the little ones chil , led and aching with cold, threw themselves 1 on the ground, then (her sister sat down , land spreading other garments as wide as! j possible drew them on her lap. and cude-1 vored to impart the warmth of her ow n bo som, as they slept sweetly on her arms. .Morning came, and the desolate sat on | the shore weeping bitterly. At lenih. they 1 were filled with joy by the sight of a canoe approaching the island. Hut they soon discovered that it was filled with Indians; their delight was changed into terror, and lied into the woods. Behaving that the 1 savages had murdered their father and now came to seek for them, they crouched j under the bushes hiding in breathless fear, i 1 like a brood of young patndges. The Indians having kindled a fire, and ! sat down around it and liegan to rook the:r j morning n.cal; and the oldest child, as she! , peeped out from her hiding place, began to think that they had not kil'ed their father, i She reflected too. that they must inevitably starve, if left on this lone island, while on the other hand there was a possibility of being kindly treated by the Indiana.—} The cries, too of her brother and sifter, who had been lagging pitiously for food, 1 had pierced her heart and awakened all i lier energy. She told the lifrte ones, over , whose feeble minds her fine spirit had ac quired an absolute away, lo got up and go with her; then taking a hand of each, she fearlcsly hrd them to the Indian eampfirev FcrUwutely, the savages understood our language, and the little girl explaining Co them w hat had occurred, they received flic the deeerted children kindly,and conducted j them to live nearest of our towns, wncru thcv were kept bv some benevolent people until their own relations claimed ill m.

Our guides looked anxiously towards it, and announced thetr apprehensions of a violent storm. We soon found that their fears were well founded The fog rapidly cov ered and obscured the whole ol the moun tain; tht atmosphere was suffocating, and yet so humid ft»nt the steel work ot our watches was coyred with rust, and the watches stopped. The river beside whi' h we were travelling, rV*hed down with <tdl greater impetuosity; aiw from the chits of the rocks w hieh lay on the left of our path, were suddenly precipitated .mall rivulets, that bore the roots of trees a»«J innumera ble serpents along with than. These rivulets often came down so audibly and violently that we hud great difficulty in preserving our tooting. I he thuider at length began to roll, and resound through the mountaineoua passes with the iipst terrified grandeur.—Then came the vita) lightening,—flash followed llusli—ubovfc. around, bcncutb,—every where n sea of tire.

In a short time lie re [ tuned and informed us that lie discovered j a spacious cavern, which would afford us I sufficient protection from the elements.— We proceeded thither immediately, and ■ with great difficulty and not a little danger, | at last got into it. I he noise and raging ot the storm con inued with so much violence, that wo rould not hear the sound of our voices. I lad placed myself near the entrance of the :avo, and could observe, through the open ng, which was straight nnd narrow, the ungular scene without. I he highest cedar roes wore struck down, or bent like reeds: monkeys and parrots lay strewed upon the ground, killed by the falling branches! the water bad collected in tho path we had just passed, Sc hurried along it like a mountain stream. From every thing I saw, I thought it extremely probable that wc should be obliged to pass some days m tho cavern. -When the storm, however, bad somewhat abated, our guides ventured out in order to ascertain if it were possible to continue our journey. The rave in which wc had taken refuge was so extremely dark, that if we moved a lew paces from the entrance, we could not sc an inch be fore u«; and we were debating us to tho propriety of leaving even befor the Indian* came back, when wc suddenly heard n sin gular groaning or grow lip g at the further end of the cavern, which instanth fixed all our attention. Wharton arjd my rdf listened anxiously, but our daring and in considerate young fnctid, Lincoln, togeth er with my huntsman, crept about upon their hands nnd kness, and endeavored to discover, by groping, from whence the sound proceeded. 'They had not advanc ed fur into the cavern before we)ieard them utter an exclamation of surprise; and they returned to us. each carrying in bis arms an animal singularly marked, and about the size of n cat, seemingly of great strength and power and furnished with immense fangs. The eyes were of a green color; and blood red tongue hung out of their mouths. Wharton had scarcely glanced at them, when he exclaimed in eoiisiernae lion, “(iood (Jon! we have con.e into the den of a”-. lie was interrupted by a fearful cry of dismay fiorn our guides; who enmo rushing precipitately toward* ns, calling out, “a tig -r! a tiger!” and at the same tune, with extraordinary rapidity, they clinied up a cedar tree wlocll stood at the entrance of the cave nnd hid them selves among tire branches. After the first sensation of horror nnd surprise, which rendered me motionless for a moment, had subsided, I grasped my fire arms. Wharton nan utrcmij regainc<i ms com posure ami self possession; and he called to us to assist lnm instantly hi blocking up the tauoth of the cave w ith an immense stone which fortunately lay near it. Tlio sense of approaching danger augmented our strength; for we rtow distinctly he :rd the grow l of die feroc ious animat, and we were lost beyond redemption if it reached the entrance before we could close itr— Hre tins was done, we could distinctly *co the tiger bounding towards the ?»pof, and stooping in order to creep info his den by tlie narrow opening. At this fearful mo ment our exertions were successful, and the great stone kept the wik! beast at buy. There was a small ojwii space, however* left between the top oi the entrance and the ^one, through whiefi we could sec the bred of tlie animal, illuminated by its glowing eyes, which it roiled, gfofing wit!) fury ujion us.
