The tnut ample guaranty shall be enjoyed by all ecclesiastics and religious corpoiatiotis, or communities, as well in the discharge of the office of the ministry, at in the enjoyment of iheir propeity of every kind, whether individual or corporate.

Tbe foregoing stipulation in regard to grantees of land in Texas, is extended to 11 gtamees of land in the teiritory aforesaid, elsewhere than in Texas, put in possession under such grants; and in default of the fulfillment of the conditions of any such grant, within the new period which, as is above stipulated, begins with the day of the exchange of ratifications nf this treaty, the tame shall be null and void. The Mexican Government declare that no grant whatever or land in Texas ha been made sioce the second day of March, one thousand eight hundred and thirty six ; and that nogiaDt whatever of lands in any uf the territories af.uesaid has been made since the thirteenth day of May, one thousand eight hundred aud forty-six. Akt. XL Considering that a great part of the territories which, by the present Treaty, aie to be comprehended for the future witbiu the limits of the United States, is dow occupied by savage tiibe who will hereafter be under the control of the Government of the United Stales, and whose inclusions within the territory of Mexico would be piejudicial in the extreme, it is solemnly agreed that all sucti incuuiorn should be forcibly restrained by the Government of the Uniied States, wheusoever this may be necessary; aod that when toey caunot bo prevented, they shall be puuished by said Government, and satisfaction lor the same shall be exacted all in the same way, aod with equal diligence and energy a if the same incursions were committed within ils own lenitory, against its own citizeus.

Aod iu the event of any persons captured within Mexicao tenitoiy by Indians, beiog carried into the teriitory of the United States, the Government of the latter engages and binds itself iu the most solemn mvmer, to toon at it shall know of such captives being within its territory, and shall be able so to do, through the faithful exercise of its influence and power, to icscue them and return Ihem to the their country, or deliver Ihem to the agent or representative of the Mexican Government. The Mexican authorities will, as far as practicable, give to the Government of the United States notice of such captures ; and its agents shall pay the expenses iucuned in the maintenance and transmission of the rescued captives ; who, in tbe meantime, shall be treated with the utmost hospitality by the American authorities at the place where they may be. But if Ibe Government of the United States, before receiving such notice from Mexico, shall obtain intelligence, tbiough any other channel, of the exi'ttfce of Mexican captive within its teriitory, it Will proceed forthwith to tbe Mexican agents, as abTe stipulated. For the purpose of giving to theie stipulations the fullest possible ctfieaey, thereby affording Ihe secuiiry and ledress demanded by their true spirit and intent, the Government of the United Mates will now and hereafter past, without unnecessary delay, and always vigilantly enforce, such laws as the natuie of the subject may require. And finally, the sacredoess of Ibis obligation shall never be lost tight of by the said Government, when providing for the removal of Indians from any portion of said Territories, or for its being settled by (he citizens of the Uniied States ; but, on the contrary, special caie then shall be taken not to place its Indian occupants under the necessity of teeking new homes, by eummitl ng those invasions which the Uuited Slates have solemnly obliged themselves to restrain. eaasaassssaw Abt.

The estate of the intestate was proved to be insolvent. Tbe error complained uf, is the allowance of tbe tet-eff, instead of sn allowauce of a pro rata division of Ihe sets with the other creditors.

On the tame day on which laid repealing act passed, a road law was passed which wst to take effect fiom and after its publication. As tbe road law of 1822, under which the sale for the road tax was made, wit repealed long befoie the sale, the illegality of the tale would be manifest, were it not for the saving clause in the repealing act, but that clause does not affect this question. The fotmer law ceased to exist after the lalier went into operation, these laws being clearly lepugnant lo each other, the fiist was superseded by Ihe last. Tbe law of 1S22 being thus repealed about the 3 1 at of January, 1824, and the tale not having been made until November, 1S24, the sale therefore, and all the proceeding for tbe collection of the tax after such repeal, were void, in consequence f which, the purchaser at the aale for the taxes under whom Ihe defendant claims, had no title to thepiemise, and the plaintiff was therefore entitled to iccover.

Read the following remarkable case of the eon of William Secore, Esq. of Philadelphia, afflicted with epileptic fits 3? years and 6 month After travelling through. England, Scotland, Germany and France, consulting the most eminent physicians, and expending for medicine, medical treatment and advice, three thousand dollars, returned with his son to this country, iu November last, without receiving any benefit whatever, and was cured by using Hurt's ytgelablt Extract. Mr. Win. Secore'a letter to Drs. Ivan it Hart. I hsve sjient over three thousand dollars for medicine and medical attendance. I was dvised lo take a tour to Europe, which I drd. I first visaed England, I consulted Um most eminent physicians there in lexpect to hi case. They examined him and prescribed accordingly. 1 remained there three months without perceiving any change (f the better, which cost me about two hundred and liny dollars, pocketed by tne pnysicians, ana the most I received was their opinion lhat my son' case was hopeless and positively incurable. 1 accordingly left England, and travelled through Scotland, Germany and France, and returned borne la tbe month of November last. I saw your advertisement in one of the .

This disease is considered by all to be the most dreadful tbatevei afflicted the human race, as ils tendency is lo insanity, madness and denth. With such tearful remits as Uee, w ho, among its unhappy subjects does not shudder. The most skilful physicians of Europe, a well as Uiose of our own country, have pronounced Epilepsy (or falling sickness as it may be termed ) incurable. We are hnppy however, to stale to our readers Uiat Drs. Ivans At Hart of thi city, by long and tedious resenrch, have discovered lb primary cause of this dreadful disease, and aim its remedy a remedy w hich in most cases w ill in a very short time etlrct a permanent cure. We speak tbus poa itive, because we have within the last few weeks seen quile a number of persons who have been cured by their remedy ; one of whicn is a man of unquestionable veracity, who stated to us lhat he bad bees afflicted with epilepsy in its worst lorm for nearly 24 years, and bad from lime to time emplo)ed Uie best rredical talent lo be found, and all to no purpose, until he placed himself u nder the treatment of lira. Ivans &t Hart, which was hut a few weeks since, and now, says he, "I thank God, 1 feel that I am a well man. 1 also feel it my duty to proclaim it to the ends of Ibe earth, lhat those similarly afflicted, may find relief." We quote the language used by some that are now under treatment, and others who h ive been cured. One says, "I have sutTrred beyond ! mv powers of description, but now I rejoice in the prospect ( soon be ing fully restored, as my health oflaie bas much improved." Another w no is an eminent lawyer and well known in this city, Bays, "My sod nas been amicted for years with epilepsy, l-ut is now enjoying good j health from tbe Vegetable Extract- Its fame, says be, should and j ought o be sounded to the ends oi tbe earth." Another says, "Lanj cunge I entirely inadequate toe 1 press my pralilude lo Messrs.

We doubt , not that the time ia not far distant when thousands who are now trem1 blinc under the band of this dreadful diaraae, and fearing that every ' attack may prove fatal, will find permanent relief and be restored to new life by using this celebrated medicine, IL1RTS VEQF.TA.iLE EX1 RACT.
