The copper mines, though worked for a time, were nearly one hundred years abandoned, because of the imperfect knowledge of extracting the metal from the ore. But they have recently been opened, and are now extensively worked, lt is iid. that a silver mine has also been discovered near Santa Clara. Coal is lound upon the island so bituminous, that is some ilaccs it masses into asphaltuin, or mineral tar. Jaspers and marbles, admitting a ! bright polish, are also in abundance. Near thc coast the land is very low, and many lagoons arc formcd.which. fdled with water in the spring tides, furnish large quantities of salt. i The climate is warm and moist.

Thc Count was as noted for bis nrrfi;T.-irv as h un fur hi skill with the small sword; and unI dcrstandin all the arts of a seduan only daughter. In those times, and even since, a nobleman French, English or German was received with marked attention in all wealthy families. There was much patrician blood coursing through the veins of thc young Republic; royalty and nobility were not then, as now, at a discount. Marquises, Viscounts and Barons were lionized whenerer they made their appearance, and young ladies were enamored with the titled. This Count de Tilly soon persuaded Miss Bingham to elope with him, and also bribed some clergyman to unite them. The city was not then very populous, and the whole world of fashion was thrown into the greatest excitement at hearing that Miss Bingham had ran away with the trench Count de TilIy; and Mr. Bingham himself a very honest, well-meaning, but not very distinguished man, excepting for wealth was dreadfully mortified at this rash step of his daughter, then not sixteen years of age. The whole city called it a vile abduction. The greatest indignation was everywhere expressed; and Captain Barry, commanding a packet ship, and

A. L. Scovii.l: Dear Sir Forthe pa.t eight or ten months, I hav felt inclined to sav something in relation to tl.e EXTRAORDINARY HEALING QUALITIES of your preparation of Dr. Rogers' Compound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, for your own, but more especially for thc benefit of tin, unfortunate persons who are THREATENFD or AFFLICTED with PULMONARY CONSUMPTION, and who like myself have a great aversion to quacks, so their specifics and caiholtcons: but a combination of circumstances has prevented till now. In November, ll46, my wife look a severe cold, which settled upon her lungs. A VIOLENT COUGH was the conscqut nee, which incrcaed in severity during the winter, and reduced her to almost a, SKELETOX. It was almost incessant, and at tended with SEVERE PAIN in the SIDE and. RKEAST, accompanied with FEVER and COLD NIGHT p-WE ATS. SHE EXPECTORATED moro than a PINT of MATTER DAILY. ULCERS GATHERED np..n her LUNGS and DISCHARGED. Her HANDS and FEET were COLD AND CLAMMY a death, and a PURPLF. TINT ettled upon her lips. The skill nd vand effort of cur family physician were completely baffled. On the 1st of May, 1847, he inlormsd me that be could1 do nothing more than grant her temporary retsef,. that her taw WAS HOPELESS, and that she could NOT SUuVlVE more than a fortnight at the furthest. I immediately railed upon DR. S. NEWTON ol this city (who haabeen so skillful in th tnaim.nt of cancer., and stated ber case to him.. He recommended Dr. Rogers' Liverwort and Tar assured me that there was nothing of qoakerw about it, but purely a SCIENTIFIC PREPARATION, and gave me the history of several eases, all considered hopeless, where this pieparatiots RESTORED TO HEALTH. A bottle was nroeored. I and in one week the expectoration was nearly CONI UU EH ED. She continued rraduallr to improve. her appetite returned, her COUGH in a few months CEASED. She recovered her STRENGTH, and to ery (treat degree her health, and i now most EXTRAORDINARY TROPHY of the HEALING VIRTUES of D. ROGERS' PREPARATION OT LIVERWORT AND TAR. 1 can only say that I have derived very great benefit from this preparation, for hoarsenesa, sorw throat, ai d stricture across the chest. I have been enabled, while suffering from severe Cold and Hoarseness, to speak w ith comparative ease for two hours. It has one advantage, in my own case, ever other rspectorants, it doe not derange thr digestivo functions, producing head-ache, or nervous inability. I regard it as adinirablv adapted for the use ol public speakers. Hespecifully yours, JOHN A. COLLINS. DESPAIR SOT THOVr.H YOUR PHTSICUSi J.V) FRIEKDS CUE TOU VP TO DIE l! Your condition cannot be Bore hopeless than thai of Mrs. Rowe. This is to certify that I was taken with a pain in my aide and breast, attended with a distressing; cough, and for the spare of one rear grew rapidly worse. Although I had in attendance three physician, one of whom was considered very killful, all of their efforts proved alike unavailing. At last on of the physicians came in, and decided that 1 could not live more than one doy longer!! All of asy friend believed that a few days at most would end my earthly career:.' My brother at this time hearing of the astonishingcures made by Dr. Rorrrs' Liverwort and ri , went to Cbillieothe, distant thirty miles, to procare th hove medicine; and, strange to tell, before I had used hslf a bottle my cough was entirely cored, and when I had used two bo l ties 1 was able to attend to my family vocations a usual.
