Hcyrtss wjtk AaTtLttaT.—Albert
Pike went oat recently with Major Rec
tor, Indian- Sowrintendon' to a«si*t in the
payment of the Indian annuities among
the tribes west of Arkansas. A corres
pondent of the Fort South Herotd, wri
ting from the Creek Agency, describes
Col. Pike’s method of hunting the grouse
or prairie henr
*• Knowing how wild they are, he came
prepared to outwit them. He hunts snth
b piece of artillery, a six-pounder. This
he hauls out on the prairie, and when he
discovers a flock, he unlimhers, sights the
cun. and touches Her rtff. Ha rr» relts
misses. It is very exciting to see a dozen
grouse fluttering with broken winga among
twice as many dead ones, and the captain
chasing them rotted and catching them.
His ejsu3l charge is a pound of powder
and a quarter of a bag of turkey or swan
shot. He generally shoots at about 200
yards. He killed, in John Sell’s field,
below here, the other day. 38 grouse at a
single fire. Major Rector, who accom
panied him, thinks be must hare crippled
1,000, that got oil'among'the corn-stalks
and cookie-burrs."
Seizure upon Cub a bt Attachment.
—The Washington Union ndorses the
proposition of Senator Davis to proceed
by attachment against Spain as an absent,
absconding or fraudulent debtor, and levy
upon Cuba. It devotes a column to the
subject, and closes as follows:
Mr. Davis proposes, under all the cir
cumstances, thattihe Federal Government
shall notify Spain and demand payment of
certain indebtedness, and, in default there
of, that attachment issue with directions to
our naval constables to seize the island of
Cuba. In equity ^Ir. Davis is right.
Spain has justly forfeited all claim to the
forbearance of the United States. The
island has been governed for twenty years
on the idea that England and France
would not consent to its falling into our
hands. It has been regarded as perfectly
safe to treat our people as barbarians and
pirates; to arrest them, confiscate their
property, and even when pronounced in
nocent in criminal prosecutions, to refuse
not only to return their estates, but make
them pay enormous costs. The whole
judicial system of Cuba is in the hands or
under the control of the Governor-General.
This is not the theory of the Government,
but it is its practice; so that all authority,
wherever and by whomsoever exercised,
is n unit.
—..* ■*—
N apoleon’s Policy.—The po'icy of the |
Emperor of the French is a rare combina
tion of recklessness and prudence. He
persisted, in prosecuting and convicting the
Count Montalembert, and in having him
sentenced to be fined and imprisoned, in
the face of tho indignation of nil intelli
gent and liberal men of the world ; and at
the moment when this act of intense des
potism was being, in its consummation,
regarded with mingled awe and anger,
and the air was quivering with predic
tions of another French revolution, the
Emperor pardons the Count. Tiiis is
quite in line with his recent bullying of i
Portugal, followed by his formal expres
sions of contrition for having been con
nected with the disguised African . 6lave
trade.

Dr. Sledge —Dear Sir: I have sold all your
Cholera or Diarrhoea Syrup. 1 have used it
myself, and also in my family several times,
and I can say tor the truth, it is the best medi
cine for the Flux I have ever seen, for it has
not failed to cure in every casein-18 hours. I
would not be without it in my family for ten
dollars per bottte.

Dr. J. M. Sledge—Dear Sir: After my re
spects to you, please let me say to you that my
friend. Mr. F. Russer. the gentleman to whom
I went with to sea from Gallatin, has im
proved to the extent that he is able to go any- I
where his business calls him; in fact your
medicine has performed such miraculous
cures, in every instance where it has been
tried, that having gone into business at Hazte
burst, the depot near me, 1 have concluded to j
you to say when you were here that you
would take ofl 20 or 25 per cent. You will |
therefore please send to me say la bottles !
Cholera Medicine, 18 bottles Nerve and Bone
Liniment, 24 botties Hoarhound Pectoral, and
the balance of the One Hundred Dollars which
you will find enclosed, in your Nervous Tonic.
I send the right hand end of the money, and
on the reception of the first half, you will
please semi the medicine and write to me, and
I will send the other half. I expect you to
send me your Nervous Tonic at $1 60, as you
sold it at $2 00 by the single bottle. Do not
delay sending the Medicine, as there is a con
siderable demand or call for it. Mr. Peave,
who was given over to die in a few days, is up
and going about, and I have no douht he will
recover. THOS. H. WHEELER.

Dr. J. M. Sledge :
Dear Sir—In conversation with your agent,
I learned that some prejudiced persons, which
are tobe found everywhere, against patent med
icine;. spoke of your medicines as not doing j
much for themselves or anv one else. To see
justice done between all parties, and to enable
others, if they wish, to receive the same bene
fits that I have from your medicines, I will
simply give you a statement of facts, which
you can make any use of you please. If any
one doubts let them call on me and I can satis
fy them. I am probably as well known as any
one in this portion of the State, but I am not
in the habit of giving certificates, but feel
that in giving this one I am fully justified.— :
My son was taken sick with the Flux last July,
and lay seventeen or eighteen days, when all i
hope on my part was gone, and nothing ap- {
peared to do him any good. I commenced giv- i
ing him your Diarrhoea or Flux Syrup, and he >
commenced mending immediately. 1 verily
believe it was the savingof his life. You have i
the facts. Hoping that others may receive '
the benefit that iny son did, I remain, yours
respectfully, JOHN F. ANDERSON.
Anderson. Tenn., March 31, 1858.
Dr. Sledge:—Dear Sir: Your medicines
nave rendered general satisfaction here ; they
have even gone beyond the flattering recom
mendation given by yourself. I have used in
my family, with unparalleled success, your
Nervous Tonic, your Diarrhoea Syrup, and
your Liniment and Hoarhound Pectoral; and j
have found them superior to any medicines ■
ever used here, for the various diseases arising j
from a miasmatic country like this, where j
Fever and Ague, Diarrhma and Rheumatism. ■
are the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous'
Tonic has been used by many others as well j
as myself, as a preventive of fever and Ague ; j
and It has invariably given satisfaction. 1!
for one say emphatically that it will prevent
Chills and Fevers, if taken according to the
directions; and that one bottle will save anv
family ten times the cost, if used as a preven
tive. I used it in my family last year, and 11
will certify on oath that one bottle saved me !
at least ten tines its cost. The three years
previous to last year, not one of us escaped •
the Chills and Fevers, and last year we used j
only one of your bottles of Nervous Tonic;!
