He got fro in Buffalo to Krio t?n the Propeller Cleveland, and thence, during the cold winter, but poorly clad, and dependent tipon charity Ibr his daily bread, he worked his Vvay towards the destination of his family, until the time when he entered the office of the gen* tlrmen above named. He says that on his way he was sometimes treated kindly and sometimes unkindly. When he was !c!t at Buffalo ho had $2 in his pocket, and once on his journey, being fool-sore and i weary, he had paid one-eighth of his money for the nrivile<?e of riding some distance in a stage, - I c clint after riding a mile or two, his name not Ireing on the way bill, ho was ordered out of, the coach. .\s an offset to this unkindne.ss, however, some stage drivers carried him con- J siderablo distances without pay. Sometimes he slept in good warm beds beneath hospitable rnnfs--sometimes he Was lorccd to seek the hay loft (or a resting place. In entering the office of Messrs. Brown <fc Coles he made u fortunate move?for in addi. to what those gentlemen gave, him, Wm. B. Ogden, Ksq., who was present, with his accustomed generosity, furnished him with comfortable nlo'.hes, paid his fare in the stage to .Mil fvaukie. and gave him letters to genth men in . ... that city, who will take pleasure in aiding him to find his family.

Polk.?We find the following well-told anecdote in the Western Continent, of Saturday: " It is doubtless well known to our readers that shortly hefore his departure from Washington, Mr. ('lav attended a dinner party, with tnatfy other distinguished gentlemen of both po. iitlenl parties, at the President's house. The pifty i, sai l to have been a very pleasant affair?nhe viands were choice, the wine was oi l and sparkling?good feelings abounded, uud ^ wif and lively repartee gave zest 11 the occasion, while Mrs. Pollt, the winning and accomplished ^ hostess STIed the finishing grace to her excellent housewifery in the superior management of the feast. Mr. Clay wa< of course honored j with a scat near the President's lady,where it became him to put into requisition those insinuating talents which he possesses in so eminent a degree, an I which are irresistible even to his enemies. Mrs. Polk, with her usual frank and affable manner, was extremely courteous to her distinguished guest, whose good opinion, as of all "who share the hospitalities of the M hite Hnit'se, ?he did not fit! to win. ".Madam," said Mr. Clay in that bland man*er peculiar to himself, ' ! must say that in my Irarels. wherever I have been, in all companies and among all parties, 1 have heard but one opinion of you.* All agree in ronvneuding in the highest terms your excellent administration of the domestic affairs of the White House. Hut." he continued directing her attention to lier husband, "as for that young gentleman there. I cannot say as much. There is," said j ho';i?-'jsomc littlp diflereBce of opinion in regard lo fh'e policv of his course. ^Indeed." said Mrs* Polk, I am glad lo hear Vhat wtf administration ia popular. And in re. turn'for your compliment, I will sa v that if the counlry should elect a WhigneU fall, 1 know of ?io one whose elevation would please me more than that of Henry Clay." "Thank you, thank you, madam." ?"And I will assure you of one thing. If you ?!<? have ocrtisinn to occu:ty the the White House on the Fourth ol March nett, it shall he surrendered to you in perfect order from garret to cellar." '* "I'm certain that " -But, the laugh that followed this pleasant repartee, which lust nothing from the manner nor the riccosion nfit, did not permit the. guests at WV- the lower end of the table to hear the rest of Mri" Clay's reply. Whether he was "certain that" he should bp the tenant of the President's mansion, or whether ho only said he was"cerfanl IhatVvwhoever did occupy it would find it ill good condition, like the resuit of the coming for the Presidency, remains a mystery.

March 8. 10 tf ITIOST EXTRAORDINARY. CURE OF BODY AND MINI). Philadelphia, Jan. 6,1846. Dr. D. Jay.ve,?Dear Sir.?Justice compels me to make he following statement of the extroordinnry effects of your aluable medicine?the ALTERATIVE. I certify that my wife was afflicted for fourteen years, nring which lime her disease baffled the skill of several raineut Physicians, and after finding that every means hat were used failed to relieve her, I concluded to place icrin the Pennsylvania Hospital, hoping that the care and real men t she would there receive from the Physicians in hat institution, she might again be restored to health. But r> ray great (lbappointmeiit. she grew worse and became cnirelv deranged in her mind, and I was obliged to take her lome nguin "incurabi.e" and BEREFT OF REASON. I rill here mention that at this time the more prominent svmpnms of her disease, were Dv> pepsin nnd Liver Complaint, ttenried with sickness of the stomach, and vomiting of a cry offensive fetid mucus, pains in her head, back and toinaeh. nnd in the region of the heart, with violent ntacks of Colic, a troublesome cough from large rjitantities if phlegm in her throat, which kept her continally gagging .na retching to throw it up. She had no appetite, and was cry weak. She also suffered very much from a UTErtne iiseask by which site was confined to her bed. Add to 11 the above, the deranged state of her mind, (which at his time was truly awful,) and you will be able to form ome idea of her afflictions. Bv the advice of a friend we commenced giving her your ALTERATIVE, in the doses of a tea-spoonful three times day, nnd found that it helped her. We also gave your fkrmikuue to increase her appetite, and the Sanative 'tt.t.s to regulate her bowels. She had not taken two holies of the ALTERATIVE, before it operated upon her in . wonderful manner, filling her fare with small red pimiles. and caused Iter to expectorate large citianlilies of corttption. bef ire which, her breath was so offensive we could Kit remain in the room with her unless the dtors were open, 'hiding the ALTERATIVE doing her so much good, we pcreaved the dose according to the direction t, nnd she coninucd to improve daily, until finally siie was restored o iieai.Th. in BODY as weld as in mind! I hope you will delay 110 time in laying this before the pubic, as I am willing to'he qualified at any time to the truth of lie nlmve statement, and that it was your ALTERATIVE which cured her.
