Dr. Smith's Ploughman's Drops. FOR THE CURE OF SCURVY, KING'S EVIL, VENEREAL COMPLAINTS, & c. LONG wished lor is come at last! What's that ? Why Dr. SMITH'S PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS; which, notwithstanding the Efforts of interested Men, are now in the highest Repute; and the Cures daily performed, in Cases which hale baffled the Skill of the most eminent Practitioners, aie so numerous, and attested by such respectable Witnesses, as to prove beyond the possibility of Contradiction, their Superiority over any other Medicine in the United Kingdom. KING'S EVIL. TO DR. SMITH. DIAR SIR— As t am not used to write much, t humbly in- form yon, for the benefit of mankind, that my daughter Martha Jebb, at the age of 7 years, was shockingly afflicted with the King's Evil. In 1803, she was recommended by a lady as an out- patient to the Infirmary, in which situation she remained until 1305, without receiving any benefit. I was then advised to try the Ploughman's Drops, which I did, and thank God I soon found, without the help ofthe surgeon's knife, or burning hot caustic, that my dear daughter in the short space of three mouths was perfectly cured, and remains at this time quite sound. I must observe that tbe ulcers round her poor little neck were enough to shock tbe heart of auyone. I am, dear Mr. Smith, your's, WM. JF. B B. U iock- iardine, Jan. 17, 1808. My daughter may be seen any day, as a living witness of the good your blessed Ploughman's Drops are capable of doing. These Drops aie to be had in square Bottles, with these Words moulded on each, •• Mr. Smith's Ploughman's Drops," ( all others are spurious), at £ 1 8s. the large, aud lis. the small, Duty included, at tbe Doctor's House, Upton Magna, near Shrewsbury ; of W.

American paners have beep received to the ] 6th ult. most impAtant articles in them are a Proetam{ itionJ|< isued in the President on the 2d. and a ciYcular, of the « aW date, from Mr. Gallatin to the Collectors of tlife'Customs, both of which documents are given at length in bur last pa? e. It- appears from them, that the French Government ht^ aeWaHy notified the revocation of its edicts violating the neutral Com- merce of the ITnU* d States. We may be' » wir « f;' however, that Bonaparte has not thus abruptly gone to the extremity of concession, wrib. ii. ny. . intention . that sHth a proceeding nhonld contribute to tlie reStoratioo of haYihohy between tbis country and tbe United States.- He has aCoutierl the ad- vantage of having tbe Non- intercourse act entirety abrogated, sofaras respects France; Imt he " ill be gieiijly . disappointed, if it should not tie enforced, as tht- catened"' m'Mr. Gallatin's letter, against this country, It cannot tscape the attention of our readers, tfrat .. there is no ' mention, fii the Prrsident's Proclamation of Ihe Berlin nnd Milan decrees, riorVf the Order's In Criuncil, issued in retaliation for the Berlin decree, ' file repeal <? f t. he. Non . intercourse act with-- regard to vis,- is niby uiatle In depend npon our revoking, asFrance has done, ail our edicts which may be considered as violating the neutral commerce of Anier'eia. If this sweeping revocation is made, which il would be Ibe height of folly to imagine, then Bona- part. ewpyld clearly accomplish the purpose which be professed to hare m view ill issrtiog his decrees; if it is not, and the American Government should acquiesce in any thing short of it, then he will complain iha't they have not fulfilled their engagements with him ;, and, iii due time, he will resort to hi » former system. This change of the question between us hnd America ha ® , in some degree, resulted from, the a'teration which took place in our prohibitory system on the l? th of April last, when tbe retaliatiVe Orders in fcouiicil tnefged in a general blockade of the enemy's ports, from the F. lbe to Or- bitello. Any modification of that blockade will neither satisfy Bonaparte, nor Ihe party in America wljo are for pushing their rights nf Commerce and Navigation to au extreme ; but it is highly probable that the reflecting and peaceable part of the population of the United States, will expect nothing more than a relaxation to such an extent as to place their com- merce on the same footing as before the issuing of the Orders in Council. The Minister who nt present diiects our foreign affairs, may lie confided in to defeat tbe juiia. tr which lurks in tbe ' arrangement between Tlnnaparie and Gen. Armstrong. Next to tbe removal of all grounds of misunderstanding with the United Statesi our first ebre should be to place their Guvornnunt decidedly' in the wrong, if it should be resolutely bent upon hostilities. In a war fot vindicating the « « freedom of the seas." in'the French sense of the words, it will hardly tneet with support. F. verv mnn in America, of a sound head and heart,. must be aware that the tendency ofsiicha measure would be to place themselves, and the wlioln world, at the inercy of the French tyrant. Minerva, and Victor arrived, and run into port South East, with their prize the Hon. East India Company^ ship Ceylon, taken in company with the Windham, after a gallant resist- ance, on. their way from thg Cape . to Madras, with a port of the 24th regiment on board.

( S'tgiiW) W. SHIELD. P. S. Captain Willoughby has lost an eye, arid is other- wise wounded, and is in the bands of the enemy. [ By other dispatches received at the Admiralty, it appears that . his. Majesty's ship Pbceiie arrived at tiie Cape of Good Hope on the 25; h of September last, and that the Menelaus sailed from St. Helena for the Cape on the 16th of October.] The Gazette also announces the following captures, viz-. Le Renard, French cutter privateer, of 6 yunn, and 2' 4 men, in the Channel, by the Quebec frigate and Kite sloop.— La Caroline, of I gun, and 42 men, off Cuba, by the Saracen sloop Capt. Blunt. And Le Manielonck, French lugjer privateer, of 16 guns, and 4. V men, { « n company with another of equal force,) nil" Diiugeness, by hoarding, by the Rosario sloop, Capt. Harvey : tbe Rossrio had 5, and the enemy 7 then wounded ! hi tire encounter. to submit the propriety nf agreeing to' an additional Je.' ay of one fortnight more, in the hope that iu the space of that time some change might have taken place ift his Majesty's disorder. I bad then a confident expectatioo, tbat in that period such an alteration would have taken place, as to make parliamen- tary interference unnecessary. I am under Ihe painful neces- sity of stating to- t. be House that tbat expectation lias been disappointed. The House will recollect tbat I, upon tbat occasion, stated, that it would not be consistent with my duty, or feelings . of tbe public interest, to- propose any fmtber ad- journment this dav, unless there was evidently such an advance in his Majesty's indisposition towards recovery, as to render moie delay pi udentp I am, Sir, still of that opinion ; and affer stating that such advance or improvement has not taken place, as I alluded to, in the state of his Majesty's health, ( although I still confidently entertain sanguine hopes of his final recovery)- yet t think the House cannot with any degree of propriety delay longer; I therefore humbly conceive, that the proper course will be, to apnoii. it a Committee of its own, in - order to establish, upon parliamentary' record, the state of bis Majesty's disorder; and that upon tjie report of tii^ t Committee, the House should afterwards adopt some par- liamentary measures. 1 shall therefore proceed to move— ". That n select Committee of 21- members be appointed to examine the Plu'si'ciaris Who have attended his Majesty during his illness, touching the state of his Majesty's health, and that tbev report "' the same, with their opinion to the House." The motion being read from the ejiairfiwas unanimously agreed lo. The Committee consists of the members following : Right Hon. the Chancellor of Right Hon. George Tierney tbe Exchequer Rt. Hon. Mr. Secretary Ryder Rt. Hon. the Mast, of tbe Rolls ISght Hon. G.' Ponsonby William Wilbeiforce, F. sq. Right Hon. R. B. Sheridan The Attorney- General William Adam, Esq. R. t.

The American vessel ibe Sloth, taken on her voyage from America lo St. Sebastian's, has been condemned in the High Court of Admiralty. The Sloth sailed subsequent to its being known in America tbat the French Decrees bad been re- voked. The decismn, therefore, which Sir W Scott might give with regard to her and some other American vessels in the same predicament, has for these few days past been the subject of much speculation; anil some of the papers have asserted that he was to consult his Majesty's Ministers upon this subject. In malting a statement of tbis sort, they must have forgotten the character and piivileges of a British . lodge, and tbe rights tbat belong to all suitors in our Courts, whether natives or foreigners. It is scarcely necessary to inform our readers, lliat the decision of a British Judicature is. in no case tubect, to tne direction or influence of the Executive, but is the unbiassed result of the application of an antecedently ex- isting law to the faMs, as they came ont in evidence. The only conclusion, therefore, that can be drawn from the con- demnation of the Sloth Is, riot that Ministers have directed the Judge to take such and such a step ; but that, at the period of capture, our General Decree of Bloikade was in full fotce; nnd his sentence must, have been precisely what it was, had that Decree been revoked, or modified, the very day subsequent ro the capture, A letter of a recent date from Barbadoes says:—" Since the capture of tbe Frcheh West India Islands bur trade goes en with comparative security ; there are few privateers beard of; and it is generally regretted that these islands, which were a refuge lor a swarm of despeiadoes, bad not been cap- tuied before. The British fiag now rides uuitlsulted ; ond our crtiizers, lo give them their due, are evermore on tlie alert." r By the arrival of the Duke of Montrose packe't, advices bave been received from the Brazils to the 16' h of October. Tbe following is an extract of a letter of tbat date, fiom a commercial house at Rid Janeiro:—" The information we have obtained Irom Buenos Ayres is interesting. They are in a state of civil war. Liniers, his son, Col. Aknde, the gover- nor of Cordova, Concha, the Assessor Rodriguez, and the Official Real Moreno, have been shot. A sqnadion of Eng. lisli, Portuguese, and Spanish vessels, is now blockading Btietios Ayres." Admiral De Couteey, with three line- ol battle ships, three frigates, and two- sloops, is off there, and will act as emergencies requite. We fear much blood will be spilt. The Persian Ambassador landed at this place on hia passage to India, and great rejoicings took place.— We understand that, the execution of Liuiers and his colleagues touk place on tbe 26th of August, at a place about half way hetween Buenos Ayres and Cordova. The above intelligente was received by a Spanish ve- sel which put into Rio Janeiro oji ihe 13ih.' A gentleman of the uamp of Manuel o'e Parlilla, who came passenger in the packet, b.'. uglit dis- patches from the Junta for the Marquis Welleslev. Letters were yesterday received in lown from Lord Blaney, who vvas taken prisoner in the affair at Malaga. His lord- ship was at Granada, on the 22d of November, Where lie was politely and hospitably entertained by Gen. Sebastidni, who was to send an escort with bis lorrlsbip to Madrid, for which place he was lo proceed in a few days. • A Decree has been issued in Prussia for the general sup- pression of Ecclesiastical Institutions and ' LMnven's in the Monarchy, which. are considered as incompatible with the objects and necessities of the tinies, mid in part may be better accomplished by different means— tbat all the neigh- bouring slates have adopted the same measures; and that the punctual discharge of the contributions due to France con only be effected by this measure. The last Gibraltar paper states a dreadful, but necessary instance of retaliation on tbe part of the Spanish patriots in the mountains of Malaga. It occurred at Benamargoso ; where, in revenge for the murder of. 14 of their men, who had been surprised end put tn death by tbe enemy ; the patriots hanged 28 and shot 2, being the whole of a French party which bad fallen into their hands. A serious accident had nearly happened on Wednesday last to tbe Prince of Wales. His Royal Highness was going to Windsor, when in Kensington the carriage brokedown. His F'oyal Highness, however, most fortunately escaped unhurt; which, considering the rapid rate at which be generally is driven, is a subject of grateful consideration. Every assist-, once was of comfe immediately given by the inhabitants.— After dispatching a servant to Windsor, to acquaint her Ma- jesty with the cause which prevented the intended visit of his Fin al Highness, be rt tnri.-. d to London, ahd dined with the Princess Charlotte at her house.

The loss of tbe frigates, as stated in the foregoing Gazette, howevel- mortifying and melancholy as it is, will not, we are informed, occasion much inconvenience to Ihe service in that sea. There aie at present on the Cape station the Boadicea, Commodore Rowley, the Nisus, Captain Beaver; the Afri- came. Captain Corbet; tbe Actmon sloop, Lord Viscount Neville - ' I be Prince of Wales packet, for Lisbon, was said to have brought intelligence, that part of Massena's army had I retreated from Santarem ; but this information is not corro- borated by dispatches received tbis dav by Ministers from Lord Wellington. They are rioted from Cartaxa, December I; at which time the positions of neither army had undergone any material change, since the date of Nov. 23. The com- bined forces were in good health atitl spirits. It had, how- ever, been ascertained, that Masseua had been reinforce dwith 8,1) 110 men, who, on their march, had been most dreadfully harassed ; and, wheu they did arrive, were found by Massena in want of every common comfort. Report says, tbat the 8000 men alluded to, are the remains of a force consisting primarily of 12,000 men, which were under the command of General Drouet, a third part of which force has been sacri- ficed in various skirmishes which tooK place on their route. Ministers are said to have made some arrangemeots with Mi.- Pinckney, such as will still preserve a proper understand- ing between the two Governments of Great Britain and the United States, respecting tbe edicts about which so much altercation has taken place: and Mr Piuckney is also said to have expressed his decided approbation of the proposed new measuies. Lucien_ Bonaparte, his family, aud suite, consisting of 31 persons', are arrived at Plymouth, in the President fiigate, which was sent to Malta to bring them to this country. The frigate being put uuuer quarantine, he has not yet landed; but it is understood be is in good health, and extremely pleased with the manner iu which he has been treated since he has been under our protection. The President aochoied iu j Plymouth Sound; but as it blew fresh, with a heavy swell, Lucieu requested that the {' oil Admiral would order her into smooth water, on account of his lady. Who was extremely ill, and had been very much indisposed during the whole of tbe voyage. As soon as their arrival was known Admiral Calder dispatched a boat, with a supply of fresh provisions, fruits, & c. A letter from Rio Janeiro of the 12th pf Octoher, sfates that the iwuf trerviy between .

Tiie Right Hon. Gentleman then concluded by moving to that effect, and. it was carried accordingly.— Adjourned to Monday next. HOUSE OF LORDS- THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13. Ihe LORD CHANCELLOR having taken the woolsack, tbe Earl of l. ivmrooi. rose, and stated, that notwithstanding the amendment - of - Ins Majesty's health, and the unanimous Opinion 01 the phvsiciauS- wliich had beet, given in favour of a speedy recovery, his Lordship did not see that, at, present, that desirable event was likely to occur so speedily as'to war- rant him in moving any further adjournment. In these Clicumitanceshelelt il to be his duty to submit amotion, leaving it and other consequent measures to the justice and wisdom of noble Lords. He should first move, that a Com- inittee of the House should be appointed, consisting of 21 Lords, lo examine the Physicians in aitendance on the Royal person, aud to report such examinations to the House.— Agreed to, nem. diss. The several questions were put b. y the Lord Chancellor, that a Committee of 21 pCer, f, t appointed to examine tbe said Physicians; that they have power to examine the several Physicians now m attendance on his Majesty ; axd lhat - such Physicians as could not be spared from attendaike ou the King to- morrow, be examined on Saturday next; and that such examinations be reported to the llnrise. All uf which, alter some few words from ( he Duke of Norfolk, respecting foirn, and a reply from the Earl of Liverpool, were agreed to, aiid the House was then adjourned till to morrow. FRIDAY— D £ cfe M B E H 14. A select Coroqitlleeivai appointed tor tbe purpose of consi- dering the lists delivered in, from which the Committee fur examining the Physicians was . lu be chosen. On the report of the Select Comtiiiltee- it appeared thut the following noble Lords were duly chosen. The Archbishop of Canterbun fDostscrtpt. 10A'DOX, Monday J\' ight, Dec. 17,1810 The following Bulletin was yesterdav shewn at St. James's Palace: " Windsor Castle, December 1G— The King passed * n in- different night, but be is as well as he vvas yesterday." The following Bulletin was shewn this day at St, James's Palace: " Windsor Castle, December 17.— His Majesty has passed a quiet night, though without much sleep ; and has appeared rather better for the last twenty- four hours." The letters by tho Prince of Wales packet, from Lisbon, were not delivered from the Post Office until this morning. They reach down to the 3d instant. Letters have also come to hand from Oporto to the 2d insl. One of the writers from the army expresses him- self in the following laconic manner:—" We have more manoeuvring than fighting at present, and which is likely to be the case for some time to come."— Per- j hips little more could be said when the last advice came aivny. The accounts differ materially as to the number of troops that have joined Massena's army from the northward. It was tirst slated that the force was 22,000 ; but this statement does not appear to he borne out by Ihe letters of tiTday. Most of the communica- tions state the main " f ' he i'rench to have been augmented hy 12,000 men, aud others describe the re- inforcements to consist of 15 regiments of infantry, and five of cavalry, without adverting to the number of the aggregate. All that Government have published as official on the subject, and circulated in the public offi- ces by way of Bulletin, is as follows :—" Government have received intelligence that on the 15th November Gen. Silveira marched from Francosa to Penhel, and on the following day attacked the French advanced guard, consisting of three squadrons of cavalry and 4000 iufautry, in their intrenchmeiits at Poreiro Garel- les and Valverde. The French were commanded hy Gen. Gardahne, and formed a part of the corps under Gorgel, which moved forward from Vall. adolid, with a view to reinforce the army under Marshal Massena;— the loss of the enemy was 300 dead, including leu offi- cers, and a considerable number of prisoners." It was anticipated at Lisbon that Lord Wellington would shortly retire to his strong position at Torres Vedras, where he would remain for the winter, not supposing that he wonltl be attacked by the enemy, notwithstanding the acquisition of the strength he had acquired. About the 9th of November there was the heaviest fall of rain in the neighbourhood of Oporto ever re- membered. Twenty mills were carried away by the floods at Valanga, and a great quantily of wheat, rye, Indian corn, and flour was destroyed. The bridge vvas forced away from its moorings, and twelve lighters were carried over the bar. Three.. per Cent. Consols 66$ such circumstances, any measure more injurious to the con- stitut'on. more inconsistent with the interest and dignity of tbe kingly office, or more dislvespectful and offensive to the illustrious person who is heir apparent to tin: Crown of the United Kingdom, Peeling, therefore, as lift did, upon t. lip first blush of the proposal, such Strong objections, he thouulit it fair on bis own part to state with rqiial Candour as the right bnn. gent, tbat he should feet it bis duty to meet tbe proposi- tion by a motion for amendment, the object of which should lie, that the House should iitoceed bv an address to his Royal Highness the I'riuce of Wales, praying liirn to accept the Regency in place of his Royal Father, under such limitations as The wisdom of " both Houses of Parliament might deem it expedient to impose .; and be conceived that bv su- h a modp of Ptocedure the right b'on. gentleman might effect every fair object he bad in view, withoat resorting to a meaitirc, in its form at once obnoxious arid offensive. Having thus stated - fairlv his intentions fnr the future night, lie bad no desire to exjite at present any further discussion upon. ! he subject. Mr. SKRKIPA'N joined in the sentiments of his right hon. friend, and vvas glad the discussion was a liourned for another day, as it would give the right lion, gentleman an npporturiitv of more maturely considering his resolution. He thought it rpiite impossible that'the right' hm gentfamnn could have adverted to the letter of his Royal Highness of the Sd of Dec. 11788, to Mr. Pitt, < ilherwise; he would not have formed the resolution tips night aqncUnceiL There were tw. v objects in view ; the one to snpply the deficiency of the rovaWunetions : the other to point out ihe restrictions to which the Regency was to be liinittedj and to secure to the country the full benefit nf his Majesty's restitution to the exercise of his Roval Au- thority the moment ilieVestoration of bis health would permit. The letter of his Royal Highness would have shewn mist unequivocally the principles under which he would be disposed to accept the Regency, and which were in no degree opposite to the fair wishesofthe tight hoo. gent. He thought, there- fore, that the precedent most fit. lo be looked to on the piesent occasion, was to he found in the conduct ofthe Irish Parlia- ment previous to the Union, as miwt. consistent with tbe respect due totheThrone, and to the illustrious Heir Apparent, viz. bv an Address to his Roval Highness to accept the Regency under such restrictions as the two Houses of Parliament should think it expedient to impose. By such a mode the right hon. gentleman would attain both his objects without any injury to the respect due to the Kingly Office in this country, or any indignity to the Piioce of Wales. Such vvas the proceeding of both Houses at tbe Revolution, when thev voted an address to tbe Prince of Orange, beseeching him to . issume file Kingly Authority of these Realms under such limitations and restrictions as both Houses in thei; Wisdom should deem it expedient to impose. And if such a measure was deemed wise by the most Patriotic Parliament that ever existed in Eng- land, ill conferring the Crown upon a new Monarch, how much more expedient in conveying the temporalv functions df Royalty during his Majesty's illness upon the illustrious Heir Apparent to the Throne. The CHANCELLOR or THE EXCHEQUEH thanked tbe right hon. gentlemen for the candid avowal of the conduct they meant to pursue, but begged leave to assure them that although in his view of the subject, be considered the proceeding by bill rather than by address more consistent with the principles of Parlia- ment and- the Constitution, he was as little disposed to ac- company that bill by any measure disrespectful to his Roval Highness as they could possibly be. They might have an op- portunity of being better acquainted with the contents of tbe letter ailoded lo than he was, hutfor tbe present he would not be drawn into any further explanation as to the precise object of Ihe bill he had in view. He thought lie had been suffi- ciently explicit to prepare the House for discussion when the subject should come before them. Before any bill should be introduced, it would be necessary that both Houses choiild be agreed upon its principles; and he trusted, tlint when he came to state his own view of the subject, it woulJ not be liable to the objections which gentlemen seemed disposed to anticii ate. MR. ADAM thought the House entitled to a full explanation now, in order to prepare it for full discussion ; for the right hon. gentlemen by keeping back what he ought to define until the moment of discussion, would in effect call upon the House to take a leap iu tbe dark. The House was entitled to know the extent of tbe limitation he proposed to offer! For his own part he perfectly agreed in the idea of an address to the Prince. The CuANcEtLOB OP THE EXCHEQUER disclaimed any in- tention of taking tbe House by surprise; and his learned friend must have mistaken what be hud already explained in such a supposition. Nothing conclusive was proposed fur Ihtirsday, and the explanation then to oe given would afford every opportunity for the fullest and fairest discussion. Mr. WKITBREAP could not conceive it fair for tV> rigfet bor. jntjna- ' to ' vitnhold train the House now a plan on which he himself had before so much time t. o deliberate; nor could hs conceive any fair reason for his refusing the explanation, unless that he bad not made up his own mind as to th? measure he really meant to adoot. The order for consider- ation was then changed for Thursday, and it was ordered that the House be then callej over in the first instance. Ad- journed.

HOUSE OF LORDS— MONDAY, DEC. 17. The House met pursuant tu adjournment, but tbe Report of their Lordship's Committee upon the enquiry touching the state of the King's health not being prepared, the House adjourned lo Wednesday. HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. DUNDAS brought up the report'Tn » ri tbe Committee j appointed to examine the physicians respecting the state of his Majesty's health. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR OF • r » K KXCHE< IUIJR it was ordered to lie on the table, and to be printed. The Chance lior of the Exchequer then rose, aud stated, that as it was j » ossible, the report might not be printed in time tor du- eus^ ing the subject on Wednesday, as he had proposed at the last meeting, and as uncertainty on that head wiHiid be obviated by Thursday, he should, with the leave of the House, propese that the report he taken into consider- ation on that day. iie felt it. right now to state, if the House should agree to his proposal, the step he should on that day pursue, viz. that he should move the ttousie to resolve itself into a Committee on ihe state of nation, and in that Com- mittee he should propose three preliminary resolutions strictly according with the precedent under similar circumstances in 1788. The first would express the state of his Majesty's illness, which incapacitated him at present from discharging the royal functions. The the necessity of providing a substitute for his Majesty in the capacity of H'gent — And the 3d, the expediency of bringing in a bill for providing such regency, and under such limitations as he should then describe. Having thus fairly apprised the House of the out- line of the measures which it was his intention to propose, he should feel it uuneccessary to state any further explanation at the . present moment, that might tend to elicit premature discussion, reseiving what he had. to say on that subject for Tliuisday ; as conceiving the Mouse sufficiently apprised of the ratuve and object of his propositions to come fully pre- pared for discussion. Mr. PONSONBY thanked" the' right hon. gent, for the com- munication he had made of his intentiohs. To the resolution first mentioned*, he thought thete could be no objection,— The second might possibly excite some discussion, and call for some amendment ; but with respect to the third, so far as it was explained by the ri » ht hon. cent he thought it fair to an- nounce that it should meet his most decided opposition, fie thought, that if tlie right hon. gunt, had only adverted to the letter of his Royal H'gnoess the Prince of . W.- Ues, addressed Id Mr. Pitt on a lonm'r occasion, to tlie ioterveiiiugcivcutns( ances which had sir. ee occurred, and to the comparative state of things . between the present aud the former time, he would not have resolved ou-. following.- such . a precedent as the. bill introduced in 1788 j because he could not conceive, under SHREWSBURY, Wednesday, December 19, 1810.

George Hunt, from I Timothy iy. 16. .' lboilier Ghost.— We have received the following account from a respectable gentleman, residing in the neighbourhood where the events related in ' it took place : the letter is dated on Sunday List. " ' Hie inhabitants of . Voithwnod Green, not far distant from Wem, iii this county, have been in ihe utmost consternation from witnessing an unusual aud extraordinary disturbance in a bouse near the Turnpike Gate there ; it beSan on Wednes- day last, anil continued tbe four succeeding din vs. On Wednesday, during the absence of the master of the house ( occa sioned by the death of his mother- in- law- winrresMed in the opposite bouse) for about four hours, a great number of stones, brick ends, coal in lumps of considerable size, & c. & c. were thrown, or rather dropped, in several apartments of the house, the family being at the time in different rooms, the doors and windows all shut. The stones seemed to fall from tbe first floor, where not the smallest aperture could be dii- • cemed. Several were seen lo rise from ihe celiac fl jnr, im- i ascend the stairs; in short, there was such noise in every room— stones, bricks, & c. filling in such an unaccountable ami . astonishing manner, that tbe family vvas almost distracted with fear. Two young women, maiitua- niakers, making mourning for the friends of the deceased, were taken very ill - one fainted ; the other, with the rest of the family making their escape. Several stones and brick ends fell in the op- posite house, where the corpse lav. A scene so much out of tbe common order of things, induced several persons to visit Ihe pi ice, and to endeavour to find out the cause ; but it Ins so staggered men of moie than common judgment and abili- ties, that they have gone away wondering and much alarmed ; and crowds are. daily going tn see it. ' Had I not received this information from persons upon whose veracity I could strictly depend, I should not liavr* troubled myself about it. Yesterday, however, I had the curiosity to visit the hoo- e,' where 60 persons were assembled, and found it to be as before described. Thestones and bricks were dropped into a girl's apron as sbe sat bv the fire, which induced me to be very particular in examining, but I could, not d scover bow it was possible that they could be conveyed by human hands in the manner they were; for they fell w ttl ' such a clap, and remained on the floor, without moving a hair's breadth.— t am not over credulous of such things," but you may depend On the above being fact, as several persons of respectability and veracity have witnessed the scene with tny- e| f » Fire.— The extensive Corn Mills on the Mersey, belonging to Messrs. Greaves, M. Marshall, and C. M'Niven, were d. scovered to be on lire about eteven o'clock at night, on the 8th inst. and notwithstanding the most prompt and vigorous exertions, in a few hours the whole premises were completely destroyed. For- tunately for the proprietors the buildings were insured to the amount of £ 10,000; but many persons who had sent corn to be ground, have suffered the loss of it. Ou Sunday week in the morning, two stacks of corn, the property of Mr. Dentith, of Cotton, near Chester, were destroyed by lire. Tlie impossibility of accounting for the origin of the lire has led to a suspicion that it was the act of au incendiary. In the course of the debate in the late Catholic Meeting in Dublin, on the 20th Nov. Mr, O'Contiell said—" We are assured, from authority, that his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales has pledged his word, that whenever it shall be in his power, lie will redress the grievances of the Catholics. Of this fact we are morally certain, that the moment he ascends the throne we shall be delivered from the vile blotted race of tha Fertorrair, tho Poles, the Welk sleys, and the Fosters, and of their tribe of venal scribt's, who pollute and infest the free Press of our country— who now, by their affectation of delicacy, seek to divide the Catholics of Ireland." On a subject of long courtship, a gentleman observed lately, that the lady was right in delaying the nuptial tye, nntil her swain made liis suit with due energy; " Tiue," replied. bis friend ( who vvas a politician), " but whenever the energies of tiiind aie brought into action for the public benefit, they deserve support, as ill Ihe present State Lottery, whore all the advantages of past years are brought into a focus, and now presented by a New Plan of Drawing Two Hundred Thousand Pounds All iu One Day, on the I.

Just Critlci. m respecting " THE l. VJY OF THE LAKE." Ma, Kni- on, The « tatemei- • ^ iven in the Papfrs, that " the Ladv of the Lata" wns p'il'e. V,„ sed of Mr. Scott for 5000 guineas, said to he nb'nit R » . per I. in -, for the Poem, induced me to read if' itnd T here give yon 1 ' re result of jrriy enquiry, as . a critical reader; stating the quantity of mattei, the rktlo Of re- eompence. and ttiv opinion of its meiits. It is dediraterlsimply Tothe most noble'John Jafnes, Marquis of Abercorn without a word of enlogv, except what each reader cao infer from three her.. & e. & c.; which Vill imply just as much as 1he reader knows concerning the Maiquis, andnnmore. Such a dedication may be defined tbeaffec- tation of brevity :— but though culpable, it is not srt repre- hensible as a veibosei disgOsting enumeration Of virtues and talents which the Patron never really possessed. It consists of six c. Tlitot, each said to occupy the trans- actions of a day. The scene of'those transaelitriis chiefly in the western Highlands of Perthshire. Neither of the cantos contains less than 29 stanzas, nor either of them ( note than ST. The stanzas of unequal length, from 9 to 45 lines in each, but commonly between 20 and 30 lines. The aggregate of the six cantos 4958 lines ; exclusively of introduction a nit conclusion, which are 54 more. In all 5012 ; occupying 290 pages in octavo. 20 lines in a page on the average, with allowance for customary blanks. To each of the cantos are long notes with much useful information, and some tedious matter, ocupying about 140 pages.— Total 433 pages.— Thus we have fulfilled the first promise relating to quantity of ihe work. The Ratio of ttecempenee is the next object for consideration; and, as far as my skill enables me to divide ,£ 2100 into 5012 parts, itappears tobe 8s. 4$ d. for every line ofthe Poem itself; the notes being merely adjuncts, or make. weights ; and then leaving a surplus of nearly 25s. so as to pay for five bottles of wine, wherewith to treat the purchasers of copy. right when they paid him the money,— Now, let no\ a hasty censure be passed upon this Reeompence.— Igboiance cannot be competent to decide on biich au estimate of talents and money, anil persons of learning and good sense will piobobly coincide wilh my opinion. I do not think it enormous, nor disproportionate, IF it be contrasted with that recnmpence given to the Young Roscius merely for speaking the lines of other Poets with the lequisite accompaniments of action. Some of his performances gave him 4s. per line on all he uttered. Now certainly Mr. Scott, as a bard aud a man of original genius, must be entitled to more than double the reeompence idue tonm Mimic whether Boy or Man. If indeed the for jration of such a woik » » the Lady of the Lake were capable Of being accomplished wi( h tbe same facility and rapidity of progress as old Father Time makes minutes, almost as fast as the Glpcester people make pins, then I would grant that Mr. Scott, or aty other Man of wild ideas ( called a Poir) may reasonably, and ought to be content with much less re - compense than 8s. for every line: for, admitting that this wild umri, a Poet, dwelling in the caves aud 6hrubs of Par- rassns, should labour at this employment a « many hours as other labourers work, therefore ( allowing him 12 hours in every 24 foi eating, drinking, sleeping, talkirg, and so on) as thfre are 120 minutes between six in the morning and six in the evening, rhen, at 8s. per line, it would produce ,£ 288 a day, above <£ 2000 each week, or exceeding ,£ 104,000 per annum. This would really be making Poets too rich ; and might in time destroy the genius and talents of the sylves- trian Parnassians, If they were to be ( economists, or good managers of money, ( though on ihat point they cannot be judged of from practical evidence hitherto) they would not only he soon " as great as Lords and as rich as Jews," but they would, in a few years, hare " wealth'enough to encumber them ; so that like a bud overfed, they would perhaps grow fat and lazy, and sing no more. The Mu es are somewhat different from other Ladies: they are neither fond of, nor bestow their favours on, nirn who are very ' rich— Even if P6et- were to have only Is. per line, oil the scale of hours aqd minutes as before mentioned, that would be a very fair income, for a man of genius; it would exceed £ 13,000 per • ttnaum.— 2u « ' J. How many man of genius are there in the world, having i- qch income as the production or reward of their own talents } Cobbett, artd some other such men get more than Poets, for all they write; if we consider the per- manency of their profits. The real principle of estimate ( genius out of the question, as a thing ol little value) would be to know how long Mr. Scott was about this Romance of the lake ? Did he write 100' lines a day successively for 50 days? If so, he received nearly the above ratio of a shilling per minute— Another queiy, at this minute, occurs, which must be mentioned— Are there not some boobies in some coun- tries, who receive that ratio in a double degiee, or £ 26000 per annum, for doing nothing, oi doing all by deputy? — • Such men therefore receive a shilling, cvtry minuie, both • waking and snoring, both day and night. 1 think a farthing • per minute, or between 5 and bOOl. per annum, much more than such gentlemen ought to receive from the public purse t f those countries. While these tilings exist, mule be every tongue concerning Mr. Scott's Recompence. It is not more than he merits I nay, he has not his deserts ; when such facts are duly contrasted, man against man, on the score of utility. A shilling per minute far actual labour tif genius is not too much ; but that ratio, all the year through, for non- operants, or to men who do nothing, is w hat conscience tells me, and will tell every honest man, ought not to be endured without tuch strong marks of reprehension that must progressively cffect ihe lembval of grievance. Thus talking about merits I come to the third point; but first receive a biief description or analysts of the plan of the Pdrm.— A stag- hunt takes place in Scotland. Oue ofthe hunters outrides the rest, in pursuit of the stag, aud two ol the dog! close at his haunches. Tb< S stag doubles, and is lost amidst rocks arid bushes. Nearly at the close of day, on • fine summer's evening, he discovers a lady in a boat, or a slfsHop, on a lake. His blowing a horn caused her to expect her father in the person who blew it: but it happened lo be this nearly benighted hunter, who bad killed his hot se by hard galloping. A dialogue takes place ; he on shore, and the lady of the Lake in her boat: and what seems rather extra- ordinaiy, this hunter had so keen an eye, that though the sun war gone down so low that no rays could enter the glen, " For not a setting beam could glow " Within the datk ravines below ; » — ( St. xi.) And also situated, at the time, whete The wanderer's eye cou'd barely view " The Summer Heaven's delicious blue :"—( St. xii.) and the wave of ihe boat's course was almost viewless, for wint of fight, and the calmness of the evening, yet it seems, that, after the blast from his bugle, this Lady of the Lake raised np her head, cocked her ear, flung back her locks, wild luxuriant ringlety, " Whose glossy black to shame might bring " The plumage of the raven's w it g,"—( St. xix.) and stood listening for another blast. Then, what is still more wonderful, he perceived, " Like monument nf Grecian ait."— A pair of Grecian lips, half open in a lisienirig attitude ! Not only so, the handkerchief was so open, as to give this hunter, Short glimpses of abreast of snow." This young Sliallopian, ( I don't mean, Sir, a Salopian ; but a Sltallopian, a Lady tii a Rl. iat; this Nyniph of tbe Lake,) was admirably attiied. She had a sat tin snood ( or ribband) in her ringlets; a silken plaid, or covering, instead of cloak; and a goldtn brooch— but where the brooch was placed we are ntit left tvholly to goets, it was to combine the folds of the plaid near her heart. From all these signs, tlie hunter was imprrssed with ideas of her birth. The probability of the hunter seeing- tbese Grecian lips, this snood, and this brooch, at some distance from strbre, and in such imperfect degree of light, is somewhat as probable as that of an aerial travellet, who described the waggon- ruts as visible at the time when Epping Forest locked like a goosebert y bush. They who know any thing about optics ami converge nee of rays in proporlit n to distance, will credit one tale es soon as the other,— However, taking all these things for granted, aud admitting that a Pnet might see in imagination what a hunter could not in reality, we now proceed wilh a few more statements derived from the first canto, and the outset of the second.— Matters duly ex- . plained, the stranger receives an invitation to the hospitalities of the highlands. lie takes boat with the lady, and rows her across to the lone island, where dwelt her father and mother. He sleeps there, or at least goes to his couch on a heath- bed in the great hall. Such is the description at the outset ol Stanza xxxiii. but that terrible fellow, who will not let people'lest either on down- beds or heath- beds, that mischief- loving urchin. Love, became his tormentor, and he could not sleep without troublous dreams ; for, as the Poet has said in Stanza xxxiii. " But vainly did the heath- flower shed " Its moorland fragrance round his head :" so, al gentlemen do sometimes, when Cupid thus annoys thcjii, he left nis conch for a little time ; he rose ; viewed the hioon, smelt thefloneis, wild loses, eglantines, and broom ; inhabit the fiSiraut halm of Ihe birch ; saw the Lake ; then went tp bed ; tl ought again of the Lady of the Lake, a mountain inaidtu ; said his prayers j and got a uap till the Bisck- cclk of the heath ( the grouse) crew ; and waked him in the morn- , ng ; and then away he went. It does not appear that he had the good manners to stop and 6av " Thank ye," for his lodging, or had the courage again to face the fair, and stay breakfast; hut away he goe- io the Lake, takes boat, al an earlv hour, and crosses to • he main- land. Whether his two hounds both " dark and grim" ( see Stanza xxiii.) accompanied him we know not; though ihe Poet did not omit to mention, that, on the pre- ceding evenine, they swam across after the Gentleman and Lady in the skiff, " With heads erect, and whimpering cry, " The hounds hehind their passage ply."— St. xxiv. By the bye, recollecting what he had before stated in stanza x. Then through the dell his horn resounds, " From viin pursuit to call his hounds. " Back- limp'd, with slow and crippled paee, " The sulky lenders of Ihe ehace : " With drooping tail, and humbled crest, " Close to their master's side I hey press'd on reading the above couplets, and comparing tbe dogs whim- pering with these statements of their limping as cripples, after a very hard chace, which had killed the gallant grey horse, it struck me as an act of cruel disregard to suffer those two poor dogs to swim over. He might have had compassion enough to put them in the boat, even though it contained a beautiful sylvan maid, with Grecian lips and silken plain.— This is all we hear Of the dogs, except au allusion in the Lady's song after slipper, accompanied by an invisible harp, where she spoke prophetically thus: " Sleep ! thy hounds are by thee lying." This is all we hear of poor Sonndwell and Dasher. Not a word of their going back in the morning, either by plying their own passage, or at ease w ith their master in the boat.— Perhaps it might be poetic excellence to omit these minor objects in a morning, though proper enough at night. However, we must suppose the dogs were not left to the future care of Ihe Lady, whose name was somewhat different from the heroine of Homer'sTale. It was Ellin, a brunette- visaged nymph, with a dark eye and a white bosom. — ( See Stanza xviii. and xix.) The young Lady, it seems, was au eaily riser, for the. Gentleman caught a Sight of her after he had crossed from tbe lonely Isle. She w as then sitting on a rock, by the side of he'r old minstrel, " the white- hair'd AII. AN. » ANI!." It seems that the distance ^ vas not very great, for the stranger could not only see that She was Seated, but her Grecian lips were in a smite; she was smiling to see a fleet of Ducks sailing upon the Lake commanded by the gallaol Admiral Drake; and a spaniel of the Lady's vexed and barking at them. She waved her hand, or gave some " parting sign" to the fugitive stranger, and they were soon invisible to each other. See Canto II. Stanza vi. The various si bs€- quent events that take place, each reader will easily perceive; nor will I weaken the force of pleasure to he derived from such perusal, by giving him opportunity to anticipate the contents : but thus far I Ihink will not only be no injury, but of use ; for 1 found the fust Canto very weiri- some ; and in several parts was nearly so much disgusted, as to think that I could not proceed thro' it: however I formed a resolution not to he so discouraged, and persevered regulai ly to the close. The further progress became more attractive. After this hint, I hope that all who enter on the peiusal will do the author justice so far as to read the xch- le. Having thus made the readers of your Journal acquainted with the plan, my subsequent remarks will be concerning its merits ; wherein 1 am sure will be found some original re- flections, and opinion induces me to say they have strength as well as originality. If they serve to place the Lady of the Lake, and poetical romances, iu a true point of view, the time employed by oue will be beneficial to thousands.— Such is the desigu and hope of, Sir, Your's respectfully, K1UTIKOS. P. S. 1 request your insertion of this, as soon as it may suit yrtur convenience; the sooner the better on public account; and 1 will in a day or two after its appearance send you the other letter, which you will endeavour to insert soon after the arrival of it to your hands.— This is my pledge to the public, and I hope to see your's subjoined, unless you think that insertion of the Postscript is a tacit pledge of your concurrence with the request of KRITIKOS.

" To the Collector of tbe Customs of the District of —. » Previous to the : departure of General Armslrong for the United Stales, he received a communication tVom the Duke ot Cadore. The following is the substance:— 1. The'decree rendered at Ramhouillet is revoked : every American vessel will be freely admit- ted.— 2. The confiscated property will be restored as 6oon as Congress will have revoked the law on the subject of fines incurred for the contraveutiun of the Non- intercoUrse bill.— a. The Americans can introduce freely into Our ports the produce of their own soil, and export a contra value ia the productions of the French noil." The following intelligence has been circulated in the different Government Offices:—" His Majesty's ship Forlunce is arrived at Spithead, from the Mediter- ranean, bringing an Extraordinary Ambassador from the Dey of Algiers, attended by a numerous suite.— He is the bearer of presents for their Majesties of great value and curiosity.— By the Fortun'ee, dispatches have been received from Gibraltar, up to the 20th ult. by which it appears that a formidable insurrection against the French had broken out in the province of Granada wilh every prospect of success. Veler, Malaga, and 23 of the neighbouring towns and villages, were in arms ; and some ships of war have gone frOm Gibraltar and Ceuta to assist the patriots, and tO Supply them with ammunition and arms. The people of the moun- tains of Rcftida were expected every day to rise and unite their efforts in the same causc." The Marquis de Portago and Gen. Valdemho, who have been recently sent round by the new Regency lo that neighbourhood, are, from their distinguished chaiacters, likely lo be of the greatest service to the patriotic cause.— General Campbell's dispatches convey the very satisfactory in- telligence that the fever had totally disappeared at Gibraltar, where clean bills of health wire issued on the 16th of November, and the quarantine taken off from the district that had been infected. Only six of the inhabitants and six soldiers belonging to the 7 th Veteran Battalion, have died of the disease ; the early suppres- sion of which is in a great measure to be attributed to the zeal and activity of Dr. Pym, the principal medi- cal officer of that garrison. When his Majesty was attacked with his first malady, the opinion of Dr. Willis was, " that he should have no doubt of his cure, were he a common person."— The reply of Lord Thurlow was—" If it be essentially necessary, consider him as a cobler." The observa- tion was worthy his strong mind, and the consequence justified the remark. According to the accounts in the American papers from West Florida, the Governor of Pensacola had embarked a small body of troops for Bayon- Manchaes, whence they were to proceed against Baton Rouge. The Revolutionists had detached a parly of 50 men to oppose their landing. A vessel had arrived at Glou- cester from Cape Francois, wilh intelligence that Christophe had defeated Petion, and obtained posses- sion of Cape Nicola Mole. This intelligence confirms the statement made by the master of a vessel which arrived at Belfast on the 23d ult. It is stated in an article frbm Carthagena, that the Vice- Queen of Saata Fe. had been whipped through the streets. A letter from Baltimore, of the 25th of October, Confirms the rumour of Mr. Adams, the American Minister, at St. I'ettrsburgh, having solicited his recal; assigning as a reason, that he has been both humbled and insulted in theltussian capital, as a republican, by Bonaparte's Ambassadors and pensioners: and that he complains bitterly of Bonaparte's influence iu Russia, where philosophers, reformers-, and patriots, have become quite unfashionable.— Siberia," adds the writer, " is daily peopled by them. Since Bonaparte has lost Cayenne, Alexander has permitted that country to be a receptacle also of Gallic Reformers. Within 15 months, according to letters from St. Petersbnrgh, up- wards of 60 Jacobin regenerators have passed through Livonia on their way to Siberia."
