THIS most valuable Medicine, the discovery of which originated from long experience in the sutdy ol Medicine, is entitled to confidence ftom the circumstance that it was used in the practice of a regular well bred Physician, a number of years and was offered to the publick, after much solicitation, and from the benevolent wish to alleviate some ofthe sufferings inherent in our nature.

I was early subject to a cough, which at times occasioned the raising of much blood. In Slay last I was attacked with hoarseness, a most distressing cough, severe pain in the side and breast, which obliged me to suspend my public labors.

Georgia and the Missionaries. The Cherokee Phenix of July 16 states that Messrs. Worcester and Butler are now in jail in Gwinnett county, awaiting their trial at the next Superior Court. Probably they will not think it worth while to give bail, as that would not secure them against another arrest. The persecution of the Georgia government is unrelenting.

The Phe nix complains mat tne ueorgians can Hnd no warrant, even in their own violent and unjust laws, for the cruelty practised. The following is an account of their illegal treatment of one of the Methodist missionaries. The Rev. Mr. McLeod, superintendent of tne Alethodist missions in this nation, and not residing within the Georgia charter, lately re turned from a visit to 1 ennesscc.

lie merely passed this part of the nation a few weeks since, on his way to Creek path, to fill an appointment previously made. On his way back to the 1 en nessee side of the nation, where we believe he has generally made his stay, when but a few miles from Mount Wesley, ho met the guard conducting Messrs Worcester and Trott to their headquarters. He was arrested by them, order ed to dismount from his horse, and take the line of march with the other prisoners. Now under what law, under what provision of any law, was Mr. McLeod arrested, and compelled to walk fifty or sixty miles? It becomes the good people of Georgia to see to these things.

There are many in that state, we have not the least doubt, who advocated the extension of the laws over the Indians, who would deprecate such measures, if they were but properly informed of what is going on." Jour, of Hum. Cherokee Women beware It is said the Georgia Guard have received orders, from the Governor we suppose, to indict corporeal punishment on such females as shall hereafter be guilty ol insulting them. We presume they are to be j-idges of what constitutes insult. We will simply give our opinion upon this subject. According to our understanding of insult, we think first, it is very undignified lor a female to exercise it under any circumstances; and second, it is equally undignified for any gentleman to inflict corporeal punishment on a female who may be guilty of such a crime.

The Osascs and Pawnees We are sorry to learn, by a gentleman from the West, who passed down a few days ago, that there is a prospect of a re-commenceineiit of hos tilities between the two tribes. 1 he Usages, we understand, recently removed from their villages, to the number of upward of 4000 souls, and came down to within 5 or 10 miles of Cantonment Gibson, where they pitched their encampments, and have since remained. This movement was made in consequence of an expected attack from the Paw nees.

The Osages, we understand, hav ing mustereu an tneir own warnors, onu reinforcement of 200 choice warriors from the Creeks, have marched against the Pawnees. Water Wheel. We have seen a letter from a person in Pennsylvania, describing a non ly invented water wheel which may interest some our mechanical readers. The inventor says it requires a current of about three and a half miles, that it plies under water, the deeper tho stream tho better, drift wood is no obstruction to it, and it turns but one way, let the water run as it will. It can be applied to any machinery, without any dam or forebav.

Great distress has unhappily prevailed in some districts, and more particularly in a part of iue western counties ol Ireland, to relieve which, in the most ptessing cases, I have not hesitated to authorize the application of such means as were immediately available for that nurnnw. But assistance of this nature is necessarily limit ed in its amount, and can only be temporary in its effect. The possibility, therefore, of introdu cing any measures which, by assisting tlio improvement of the natural resources of the country, may tend to prevent the recurrence of such evils, must be a subject of the most anxious interest to me, and to you of the most grave and cautious consideration.

Heath of Grn. Diebilsch. An official report from the Russian head quarters at Kleczewo, dated June 10th, says; I am under the painful necessity of announcing to you that the Imperial Russian Commander-in-Chief, General Field Marshal Count Diebilsch Sabalkansky, suddenly died this day at half past o'clock at his head quarters at Kleczewo.

Until his sudden attack he had been in nerfect health, and on the preceding day had been remarkably cheerful ot table, when, at two o'clock this morning, he was suddenly attacked bv a destructive milady which bore unquestionable symptoms of cholera. The Genetal of Infantry, Count Toll, instantly assumed the command of tho aimy. Paris, June 22. The Mrssagrr des Cham-bres contains the following on the death of Marshal Diebilsch The chagrin caused by the dismissal from his command, which immediately preceded this event, joined to his excessive indulgence in the use of intoxicating liquors, appears to have occasioned the apoplexy which destroyed him. He was a great eater, and had the deplorable habit of drinking daily after dinner several bowls of punch, in order, as he saic, to promote digestion, and keep off the cholera morbus.
