Copy of a Idler J ram J. Makepeace, Esq. of Hexham, Northum- berland, to Mr. Ramsay, Apotlr'cary, Penrith. Sin, Ilexham, June 22, 1811. I was most grievously afflicted with the Rheumatism for several years, particularly across my Loins and my Hip, and Kriee Joints, which at times completely deprived me of the power of walking. I had the advice of several eminent f'liysi cians, anil by their recommendations went to Bath and tried the effects of the Waters, without gaining any relief. After making use of various Medicines to no purpose, I by the advice of a Friend, was induced to try your Medicine, from the use of which I am happy to say 1 have received the greatest relief, as I can now wa. k without pain or lameness, and enjoy as good health as can be expected at my advanced period of lite, being in my 87th year, which I attribute solely to tlie use of your invaluable Medicine. You have my full liberty to make what use you think pro- per of this Letter. I am, your obedient Servant, JOHN MAKEPEACE.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 9. Two Anholt mails are arrived from which the follow- ing is an extract:— " AnhoH, December SO.— Only two of the George's original convoy liaVe befell ascertained to have foundered ; several will he obliged to winter in Sweden, for want of anchors and cables, an<) there are about 12 still missing. The greater part of those which put back into Carlsham, Mativick- and other ports, passed the Sound on the 27ih, under convoy of the Pyramus ; they all arrived safe, but a Russian and Prussian, who were cut oli', and carried into Copenhagen, by the Danish gun- boats, and proceeded to England, on the 28th, under convoy of the Ardent and other ships of war, left here, by Sir James Snumaicz. All the English shiis which were here, have now sailed. The last . accounts from Stockholm, mention peace having been concluded between the Turks and Russians, but 110 particulars ire known, and it wants con- firmation." There were several arrivals yesterday from the North Seas, but we lament to say, that: none have brought sub- account of the Defence and St. George. The Ardent, Rear- Ailmiral Hope, the Dictator, and the whole of the remaining- ships from Wingo Sound, passed Yarmouth on Tuesday. The wind being now easterly, the fate of the St. George and Defence cannot long remain unknown. Letters and papers from Oporto to the 19th last, stata that there is not a word of news from the army— all is quiet. A large quantity of muskets, cloathing, and stoics, have beeu sent from Coruuna lor the use of tha Gallician Army. The Gibraltar Papers to a late date, state that Ballas* teros remained under the rock of Gibraltar. He lately had a slight skirmish with a French d tachinent, which had advanced to San Roque. The whole of the enemy's force on that point is not estimated at more than 6,000 men, and some hundred cavalry. It is stated in a paper, daleil the 14th last, that the Yellow FeVer has broken out at Alirant. GIBRALTAR, DEC. 20.— Very favourable account* were received from Catalonia in the beginning of last week. Far from being east down by the enormous losse* which they have sustained, and by the complete dis- persion of their army after tiie battle of Tarragona, the Catalans have plucked up fresh spirits, and cfeated a new army, which is already 23,000 strong, and is expected to he increased to upwards of 100,000 men before the end of February. The fact is, that growing every day more and more impatient of the yoke, the gallant natives are determined to shake it olf, and the whole of them are rising en. masse.' Cadiz Gnzeltes lo the 21st ult. have been received.— » It appears by an article from Yelvas, that the French are collecting large bodies near the bridges ofthe Tagns, to guard against tiie dangers which tliey seem to appre- hend ; and that their main force will take a position near Ciudad Rodrigo, for the purpose of observing the movements of Lord Wellington. The lie orts of the Proceedings of the Cortes camd down lo the 19th in- clusive, but they are unimportant. The Dublin Papers of Monday arrived this morninf. Information was given to a party of the Catholics, who were dining together 011 Friday, that a man of the name of Fisher, was altempting to associate the ignorant and poor in that city, ill a conspiracy, " to separate the tw o Islands, and to extirpate the Heretics." The Gentlemen immediately resolved lo communicate it to Government, for which purpose Mr. Graltan and the Knight of Kerry waited upon the Attorney- General, who appointed this day for a deputation of the Catholics to meet him at Mr. Pole's chambers, in the Castle. The Catholics are well aware that their adversaries only want a pretence to throw an odium upon them; had It not been for this feeling, Mr. Fisher's plot wOuld have been too coil" temptible for notice.

The reputation of these remedies, which are as innocent as they are efficacious, is so fully established by their general good effects throughout tlie country, that it is only necessary to say, that Surgeon Fisher's Preparations of the Stramonium are sold in London only bv Hai ris, Corner of St. Paul's Church yard ; and in the country, by EODOWES, Shrewsbury ; Lynch, Manchester ; Sheppaid, Bi t tol ; Tyiub- and Son, Worcester ; Keene and Bums, Bath ; Jones, Oxford ; Hod- on, Cambridge ; Rolhson, Coventiy ; Minshnll, Lancaster; Gore, Sidmouth ; Drur\ and Son, Lincoln ; Brass, Hull , Caparn, Newark ; Chester Newcastle; Simpson, Wolveibampton; Sutton, Nottingham; Hornby, York; Poole, Chester; Gore, Liverpool; Turne. and Akenheau, Newcastle; Hooker, Ipswich ; White, W -- beach ; Holrovd, Maldon; Knott and Lloyd, Birmingham ; Searle, Leeds; Billinge, Liverpool; and Newbury, Dublin.

The line may be said to defend a trian- gular portion of Ihe kingdom of Portugal; possessing' peculiar importance, by containing the capital, the port, a , d the grand depots. Without large importations of provisions, this country, in the best times, could qot have subsisted. Now, with an impoverished peasantry, and a neglected soil, the French, even if in possession of tbe interior provinces, may be considered to have done boihing. Starvation is inevitable. The preservation ot Lisb » o is, of Course, of the first impoi toucc • and to effect this, nature has so wonderfully provided, that a comparatively small share remains to be performed by art. This, however, ceasing to ipeak in relative term.-, is a work of wonderful amount. Frotn Alhandra, a little town on the ncrlli bank of the Tagus, about 25 miles Ironi Lisbon, lo Ma- fia, 011 the coast, fronting the Western Ocean, runs a chain of mountains, of perhaps 40 miles ; so entire, tbat a passable valley rarely intervenes. The part which 1 hive seen has llio not ward ridge so abrupt, that after marching np a rugged aud harassing ascent, an army would find, that even then 10 gain the height, they jsould need scaling ladders us. much as if a regular built wall was to be surmonuied Tiie few duec- tions in which a body ol' men could approach, are so com- manded by artillery, that an effectual slaughter would be carried on dining the time occupied in the most expeditious march. Ditches, pallisadoes, and other winks, tendg eatly to ihe inaccessibility of the place. Among ihe means em- ployed is a perfect line formed of the trunks and blanches of trees, laid on the ground, with their sprouts Outwards : a species of obstacle which would be f. mud ot immense trouble to pass; impossible, in fact, to either infantry or cavalry— Supposing, however, all these difficulties oveicome, the end is not yet attained. There being a succession uf heights in the rear, tbe passes are all guarded, and there are large forts upon the summits, which being sufficiently provided for resis- tance, would require a regular siege to reduce An Extensive valley in front, formed the separation between oar's anil Masst- na's army this time last year. Tne French were en- camped upon a corresponding, though more gentle elevation 011 ihe other side, wheie every movement aud operation was seen hy glasses, from our posts. 1 have been told by officer* who were 011 Ihe spot, that the sight was of the most pleasin" description, and particularly at night, when the fire tor. cooking, See. formed a track of flame winding along the in* equality of the ground for many miles. In the towns I saw Ihe marks ot French possession still remain. Shutters doors picture . Irani- s, even floors and cielings, were destroyed to serve ? s fuel." Unintentional Suicide.— On Thursday T. Hill, an prentice to Mr. Duosterville, ship- builder, at Plymouth, hung himself oe! mil the door in the kitchen. It appears that the lad had been iu the habit of frightening tlie maid- servant, and had said thnt he wouid pretend to hang himself for that purpose. Ou the momino- 011 which the fatal business happened, all the family were out, and l ie maid ; elt the boy in the kitchen lo transact some business in another part of the house, it is sup- posed that, on quilling ' he kitchen, he determined on a frolic, but, by some ' . dent, he became actually sus- pended. When the nu a- iv- d, she heard a kicking against the door, 011 opening which she perceived tha youth hanging, W hen cut down animation wu3 not extinct, but he died in a few minutes. LONDON. FRIDAY, JAN. 10. The German Papei s arc full of details respecting tbe negotiations between thc Turks and Russians. It lap- pears by the latest accounts from Bucharest, that the I'ortc had 110 safe course left but that of speedy conces- sion. The distress of their army for provisions was great, while, according to llie terms of the armistice, the Russians afforded supplies only to the Turkish corps on the Islands in the Danube, but allowed none to enter Ibe garrison of Rudschuck. One thousand barrels of powder for great guns, 20,000 stand of arms, 2000 sabres, a quantity of car- bines and pistols, wilh 200 rounds ot ammunition, for thc small arms, are ordered lo be immediately embarked on board the Brailsford transport, lo be sent to Port Kahon, consigned to Admiral Sir E. Pellew, Com- mander in Chief in the Mediterranean. Also 10,000 stand of arms, with 200 rounds of ammunition, and Hints in proportion, are to be embarked with all pos- sible dispatch, on board the Dedalus, for the service of the troops under Lord Wellington. To the honour of Messrs. Boldero and Co. it is stat- ed, that, about a week before their stopping, they returned to ( heir customers all their short bills, by which they somewhat lessened the evil of their failure. It is understood that the Lords ofthe Privy Council, who now correspond with the Bishops concerning episcopal duties, expect all Curates to be licensed, and the salaries, in many cases, to be stated in the annual diocese returns directed by the Residence Bill, and this in respect to benefices under popular jurisdiction, as well as others. Government have stopped all Licenses for Importa- tion from the Baltic, except those for corn. The Duke of Devonshire has improved the rental of his Irish cstalcs full £ 12,000 per annum. Supposed attempt at Suicide.— Yesterday morning an in- stance of youthful rashness occurred in the Inland depart- ment of Ihe Post- Office, for which no plausible reason eould be assigned. One of the Messengers of lhat institu- tion, hearing the report of a pistol in the Inland Office, ran immediately to the place from whence the noise proceeded, aud saw a youth, named Kelner, about 17 years old, sitting on a chair by Ihe fire- side, leaning his head upon his baud, and holding'a poeket- liandkerchief to his face. The Mes- senger, conceiving the pistol might have. been tired for idle snort, immediately retired. Shortly afterwards one of the Clerks entered Ihe offiue, and observing Ihe young man in the same position, asked hiin what was the matter? He made no answer: Ibis excited a good deal of surprise, anil upon coming close to him, he observed blood dripping from his clothes upon thc floor very profusely. Alarmed beyond expression, he instantly went in search of a surgeon At that hour, it being then only six in Ibe morning, he found great difficulty in procuring the service of a medical man ; in which, however, lie succeeded al length ; but, upon his return to the office, be missed young Kelner. It appears that, after the other young man had gone in search of a surgeon, he went away, and nothing lias since been heard of him. The dripping of bis blood was traced into Lom- bard- street, but there every cine for discovering wliither be had fled failed. Inquiries' were made for him at the Vir- ginia Coffee- house, where he had lodged ; but there he had notsrrived. Latterly he had become very gay in his ap- Iiarel, aud his father had declined increasing his income leyond the stipend of his situation in the Post- office. Extravagance, it is supposed, had led him inlo difficulties. — Nothing has transpired to throw the smallest light upon the motives which drove him to this act of despera- tion, nor did any thing appear casting the slightest slur upon his deportment while in the Post- office. It has appeared, however, that a letter, containing some bank- 1 1 — - - notes, put inlo thciPostoffice three months since, did not come to hand until very lately. This delay was traced to the I nland Office, in consequence ofthe complaint preferred bv thc person lo whom toe letter was directed, and it being imputed lo yonng Kelner, he was threatened with suspen- sion, unless he could satisfactorily account for this apparent piece of misconduct. Whether any blame could or could not be justly imputed to him 011 Ibis account, the fear of disgrace is supposed to have operated so powerfully on his iniud, as to produce derangement. SATURDAY, JANUARY 11. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTfi. The Gazette contains a letter from Capt. Duncan, of the Imperieuse, dated tiulph of Salerno, Oct. 11, 1811, giving au account of the following gallant exploit :— " l" havc the honour to inform you, that his Majesty's ship under my command, ( his morning attacked three of the enemy's gun vessels, carrying each an 18 pounder and 30 men, moored under llie walls of a strong fort, near Ihe town of Possilano, in the Gulpli of Salerno : thc fmperieuse was anchored about 11 o'clock within range of grape, and in a few minutes the enemy were driven from their guns, and one of the gun- boats was sunk. It however became abso- lutely necessary to get possession of the fort, the fire of which, ( hough silenced, yet ( from its being regularly walled round 011 all sides) the ship could not dislodge the soldiers and those of the vessels crews, who had made their escape on shore and taken shelter in it; the marines and a party of seamen were therefore landed, and led on by the first Lieut. Ewton Travel's, and Lieut. Pipon, of the Royal Marines, forced Iheir way into tlie battery iu the most gallant style, under a very heavy lire of musketry, obliging more than treble their numbers to fly in all directions, leaving behind about 30 men and 50 stand of arms. Tbe gnus, which were 21- ponndcrs, were then thrown over the cliff, the mag- azines, & c. destroyed, aud tbe two remaining gun vessels brought off. The zeal and gallantry of all the officers and crew in Ibis affair could not have been exceeded ; but I can not find words ( o express my admiration at the manner in which Lieutenant Travels commanded and headed the boats' crews and landing party, setting the most noble ex- nniple of intrepidity to the officers and men under him." The Gazette contains an account ofthe following cap- tures: Ihe Syrciie French privateer, by thc Gnadaloupe, Captain Tctlev : Le Furet French privateer, by tlie Koya- li it, Captain Downie; aud the Danish privateer Alvor, by the'Egeria, Captain Hole. ,,.,./. The King.— An express was received last niglil from Windsor, staling, " That His Majesty had eat with a good appetite, and was much in the same state as in the moured plot in that city, which now appears to be re- garded as a mere bubble hy the best informed persons oil the scene where it is supposed to csfist. The Colossus, 74, is arrived at Plymouth from off Basque Roads, to get new barges aud boats, to replace those destroyed in Basque Roads, in a luost gallant attempt to cut out several vessels from under some batteries in a bay. All her launches and boats, manned and armed with volunteer seamen and marines, dashed into the bay with their usual spirit; hut a line of Con- cealed gun boats arrived, and opened such a destructive fire, and the tide setting strong in shore, that those fine fellows could not row back. They were driven on shore, had six killed, several wounded-, aud about 120 made prisoners. A poor man wits knocked down by three ruffians, last night, near Finsbury square. He was found bleeding: and 011 inspecting his wounds, it was discovered, that a deep incision had been made under his chin, by a sharp instrument.— It is said not to he the intention of the Corporation of London lo permit Parliament to interfere in any new arrangements for managing the police of the city ; but they have it in contemplation to establish a most effectual remedy against the frequency of robbery and murder, in every district and ward over which they preside. The plan is in forwardness, and will be sub- mitted to a Court of Common Council next week. The suow that fell 011 Thursday night lay in several parts of Ihe north road more than three feet deep. BATE ON METHODIST CHAPELS— A vestry was held yesterday in the Parish of Christ Church, Surrey, for the purpose of declaring a rate in aid of the poor.— Mr. Far- qnliaison, stated, that he attended merely for the purpose of inquiring, whether Mr. Rowland Hill had paid the rate lately assessed upon his Chapel, in Blackfriars- road.— Mr. Green, the overseer, replied, that the rate had not been paid.— Mr. Farquliarson then gave notice to the overseers, that if the rates were not enforced against Ibe Methodist Chapels, he should not only object to the allowance of the amount of them in the overseers' accounts, but should himself decline, and recommend tu every protesfant parish ioner to decline paying the rales, till they were collected impartially.— Mr. Hawes observed, that this subject had agitated tbe whole body of Methodisls in the country ; thai uot Mr. Rowland Hill alone, but the entire mass of dis- senters, from one end of the kingdom to the other, were preparing petitions to Parliament, for the purpose of ob- taining exemption from this and other taxes, similar in principle. He should, therefore, move, that until those petitions were disposed of, Ihe assessment on Mr. Hill's Chapel should net be renewed— Mr. Fox, the Church- warden, remarked that the liability of the Chapel to be rated having been admitted, the vestry would be acting with great inconsistency,, if, afler having made one rate, it did not follow il up with another. The only question was, whether, for the present, the rates should be demand- ed ? If any parishioner insisted Upon it, he undoubtedly bad a right so to do. He was, therefore, of opinion, the rate ought to be made, and that the overseers were com- pellable lo Ibe performance of their duty.— Mi. Meymott, Vestry- clerk, said it was necessary be should set the vestry right with regard to one circumstance. The principle upon which the last rate had been made was admitted, conse- quently the vestry were only convened for the purpose of assisting tbe overseers with regard to the quantum upon each individual. He was clear lhat the vestry had 110 power to prevent the rate being made upon the principle already adopted.— Mr. Hawes then moved, that the vestry should recommend lo the overseers uot to colleet thc rates of Mr. Rowland Hill.— Mr. Farquliarson protested against such a motion being put.— Mr. Hawes then moved, that the per- sons present should, us individuuls, make such recom- mendation.— In support, of Ibis proposition he had a ma- jority of three— Mr. Farquliarson observed, that the Met I10 dists inighl vote what they pleased, but he should constantly object to theoversccrs' accounts, if they did uot oblige them to pay their rates. morning." Letters from I'etersburgh, to the I Sth last, are si- lent as to the conclusion of peace with Turkey ; and there is reason to believe, that from some motive of policy with respect to France, Ihe Russian Government Is disposed to conceal, as long as possible, any arrange- ment of this character. The exchange has again risen very considerably, it being at 175. Farther intelligence has been received, by the way of Anholt, tending to confirm thc report of Peace between the Tn'rks and the Russians. Thc letters from Pelers- bur ' h are to the 14th, and though the last accounts which had reached that capital respecting Ihe negotia- tion were not official, no doubt was entertained of the termination of the war 011 thc Danube, and the com- mencement of an early campaign 011 the Prussian fron- tiers was confidently ' anticipated. The course of ex- change had risen, and the Merchants were making arrangements, in the contemplation of a free intercourse wilh this country, as soon iu the season as the Baltic shall he open for our shipping. It is said, that thc transports which, some months ago, sailed from the Nore for the Baltic, with arms and warlike stores of various descriptions, landed their cargoes at a Russian depot. It is also worthy of notice, that several private letters state the French corps in different parts of Ger- many to be directing their march towards the Prussian territories. , _ The 1' jramus and ihe Artel have arrived at Ports- mouth from the Baltic. It was hoped that these vessels would have brought some favourable intelligence of the St. George and ( lie Defence, but they had heard nothing of them." The Pyramus and Ariel were the last ships that sailed from the Baltic, ' l'hcy brought llieir convoy safe out, though it wits greatly apprehended that the ice would have detained them. An Aggregate Mettingof the County and City of Cork w is held, ou Monday, in that city, pursuant to notice. It was fully attended by Protestants as well as Catholics, and a strong disposition was expressed by thc former, that the Frotestauls should petition in favour of the Catholic claims. Afler a long discussion, it was re- solved unanimously, that a Petition should be presented io both Houses of Parliament, at Ihe time when a Co n- mittee, to be appointed for that purpose, shall think most conducive to its success. It was also agreed to address U10 Prince Regent, at such lime asthe C0111- miltee shall think proper.

Earl LAUDERDALE moved for an account of Ihe amount of Bank Post Bills and Bank Notes in circulation on the 35II1 of each month in llie years 1810 and 1811, distinguish- ing the value of each Note.— Lord GRENVILLE, [ iu the abscnce of Earl Filzwilliain, moved that the order made 011 the motion of that noble Earl for taking into consideration tbe stalcuf Ireland on the 18lh, should be fixed for 1 be ult h, iu order to give time for tbe arrival of those noble peers, who in that House might be more especially considered as the Representatives ot Ireland, as the House might learn from them the paiticnlar state to which the measures of Go- vernment had reduced lhat unhappy part of the Empire O11 the motion of ihe Earl of Liverpool, in order that the House might have 011 their own Journals some grouuds on which arrangements, rendered necessary by the unfortunate situation of his Majesty, might be made, ordered, " That a Committee of 21 pcets lie appointed by ballot, to examine the physicians on tbe state of his Majesty's health, since their last examination at the Bar of that House." HOUSE OF COMMONS. Sir S. ROMILI. Y moved for a return of the persons com- mitted for trial to Ihe different gaols, for the year ending 31st December, distinguishing their crimes.— A return of Ihe population of England and Wales, for 1810 and 1811, was ordered to tie laid before the House. Lord (}. THYNSE reported Ibe answer of the Prince Regent to tlic Address of the House, which was as follows : " I thank you for this dutitful and loyal Address. Your assurances of the continuance of your support, in the great cause in which we arc engaged, are highly gratifying to me; & 1 have the greatest satisfaction in receiving the new proof of your affection and loyalty to the King, my father, w hich is afforded by your readiness to provide amply and suitably for his comfort and dignity, under tbe pressure of tbe severe calamity with which it lias pleased the Almighty to afflict him." On the motion of Sir JOHN NEWTORT, ordered that Ihe Account presented to the House of the Expenditure of Ireland for tbe last 20 years, aud the funded debt of Ireland down to January 1811, should be referred to a Committee, and a Report made thereon to tbe House.— Mr. LOCKHART obtained leave to bring in a bill for the registry of property bestowed for charitable purposes, and for devising some remedy for the correction of abuses iu Ihe conduct of bene- volent institutions. Mr. Secretary RYDER moved for a Select Committee to examine the Physicians respecting llie slate of Ins Majesty's health. No members of tbat House, unless also membcis of the Committee, to be present.

That 110 Report of a private bill be received after the 20th of April next. Resolved, on the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, that on Mondays and Fridays of every week orders should take precedence of all notices set down in the roll during the present session. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that tbe House do resolve lo- niorrow into a Committee of Supply, for tbe purpose of considering thc Supplies to be granted lo his Majesty. To this Mr. CREEVEY, after a variety of obsetvatious on some recent appointments of members of that House to sinecure places, ( particularly tiiat of Col M'Mahon to the office of Paymaster of Ibe Widows Pensions), proposed an Amendment, " Tbat the House will to- morrow, in a Committee of Supply, take iuto consideration the Places and Siuecures held by Members of lhat House."— The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER defended the appointment of Col M'Mahoii to the office, ull the ground that it was made subject to any future de- cision of Parliament, ( and it had been so notified to him): aud that Parliament bad uot yet adopted any other mode of remunerating individuals.— Mr. WHITBREAD said, the injury done by the appointment, was the extension of the reprobated principle ot paying public money where no ser- vices were performed.— On a division there appeared for M r. Creevey's Amendment 11— against it 53. Majority 47.— The original motion was tlieu agreed to. Tlic House agreed to a Resolution to permit the importa- tion of Sugars, c. from Mai Unique, paying similar duties with Ihe other West India islands ; aud ordered a bill to be brought in accordingly.

IBostscript LONDON, Monday Night, January 13, 1812. THE KING.— Yesterday the following Bulletin was shewn at St. James's Palace :— " Windsor Castle, Jan. 11.— His Majesty continues nearly in ( he same state." An express was received last night from Windsor, at Carlton- House, stating, " That His Majesty had refused to attend his meals, and was not so well as in the mo ning." It is stated thai ihe differences between Mr. Wellesley and the Spanish Government have not interrupted the ordinary intercourse between them. The loan solicited by the latter is 40 inillons of reals, or about four hun- dred thousand pounds; for which the Junta of Cadiz has offered its security. A loan to this extent the British Minister did not feel himself authorised to make with- out further instructions from hcnce for that purpose; and Mr. Vaughan was dispatc hed to explain the business, and learn the determination of our Government. The whole of this day has past by without producing a single arrival. A Mail from Malta is hourly expected, which, it is anticipated, will bring advices from Sicily of an interest- ing nature. We have heard of a vessel which arrived on Saturday from the Mediterranean, said to he the bearer of rumours of disturbances in tbat Island, which may have originated iu previous reports to ihe same effect, since prov- ed lo be without foundation At all events ( lie Mail due may be supposed to bring tidings ofthe arrival out of Lord Wni. Benliuck, whose first public proceedings after landing must be truly important to know. We totally despair of hearing any favourable accounts of his Majesty's ships St. George and Defence. The return, of the Desirfee frigate, which has been in quest of them in vain, lias given the death- blow to all hopes on the subject. It is still] maintained, and we have ; tni doubt of the fact, that preliminaries of peace have been signed between the Russians and Turks. A letter front Holland of a late date, says—" Most rigid measures are now enforced iu this country against ull persons detected 111 carrying on a clandestine correspond- ence with England. Several musters of merchant vessels have been recently arrested. One uf them has died in prison, and another is not likely to survive many days. The son of one of the most respectable merchants in Rotterdam is under orders for trial by a Court Martial, and the result may be easily anticipated." According to the last letters from Cadiz, the French besieging force amounted to 16,000 men. The enemy oc- casionally amuse themselves by firing from Fort Napoleon ; but without doing much injury. During two months, not more than two or three casualties had been occasioned by this bombardment. At such times, to convince the enemy that we have Ihe ability to retaliate, the iEtna bomb stands over,! and after throwing a few shells, which has the effect of inducing the enemy lo desist, returns to her an- chorage. The French have erected batteries so judiciously along the coast of the Bay that vessels, both in entering and departing, are liable to be saluted with a discharge of artilleiy during the prevalence of particular winds, ships sometimes approach so near the batteries, that the artillery- men maybe discerned heating the balls. Several vessels, among w hich were two Americans, w ere so much damaged by these discbarges, that they were obliged to put iuto Lisbon to repair, and a small vessel was, last month, Sunk at the entrance. Letters have been received from Quebec to the 2d ulf. from which it appears that large quantities of British manu- factures continue to be smuggled into thc United States from Canada. The Custom- house Officers on all the fron- tier stations had been doubled and trebled; but, in despite of their vigilance, the temptations were so great, that Eng- lish goods still found admission. Some severe contests had laso taken place betweeu tlib officers and smugglers, in which several lives were lost. Measures of precaution had been adopted by the Governor of Canada, 111 the event of hostilities w ith " the United States.— There is a considerable body of regular troops in our North American Provinces, besides a tolerable n. ilitia, among whom the best disposition prevails. Indeed, the Non- Importation Act has increased the trade of our colonies in tbat quarter, and consequently removed those slight discontents which formerly prevailed. Three per Cent. Consols. 64. HOUSE OF LORDS.— MONDAY, JANUARY 13. Doctors Willis and Sir II. Halford were sworn for tbe purpose of giving evidence before the Select Committee ol their Lordships touching the state of his Majesty's Health. The CHANCELLOR suggested the propriety of making some arrangement respecting fhe hearing of Appeals; in doihg so, he congratulated the House, that since the com- mencement of the present session 110 less than 36 Scotch Appeals had been withdrawn ; but he had further to add, that there were 32 petitions before tbe House, praying for further time to prepare papers, & c He concluded by moving, that the latter be taken into consideration 011 Wednesday next, and the agents 011 both sides lo attend to hear the decision of the House.— The question was then put and carried. The attention of the House was occupicd for some time in arranging in what manner certain other petitions and appeals should be taken into consideration. Lord WALSINGHAM moved that no petition for leave to bring in a private bill be received after the 21st of February, and that 110 report of the Judges on a private bill be received after Wednesday, Ihe 25th of March.— The mo- tions were agreed to, and ordered to be printed.— Adjourned.

Friday last, S: ty the London papers, will long be remembered as the darkest day ever experienced there it; the mfernory of the oldest inhabitant. Al one o'clock lliere was scarc ly the appearance of day t no business was done on the Royal Exchange; and though this is in general an hour of great commercial bustle, and in which " the busy hum of men" is loudly heard, all was solitude and silence in ihe different walks. The Courts of Law, the counting houses in the city, and the shops in different parts of the metropolis, were lighted up, and all business was transacted by lamp and candle light. The measures proposed by the Committee for ihe preservation of tho fisheries in' the Rivers Wye and Lugg and of the smaller streams throughout thc county of Hereford, have already been productive of good effect.

Thc Right Kev. tiie Lord Bishop, at great length, ex- plained the object and intention of the assembly, ener- getically pointed out the utility of the institution, and the advantages tbat would arise to the nation from its adoption. His Lordship then submitted various propo- sitions for carrying the plan into effect, which met wilh unanimous concurrence. Amongst other resolutions, it was agreed, that any surplus beyond the expences of the school, should be appropriated to the putting out poor apprentices. Evan Baillie, Esq. M. P. for Bristol, " expecting that a dissolution of Parliament will take place in the ensuing spring," in an Address to his Constituents announces his intention not to offer himself as a candidate for their suffrages. A meeting of Ihe Independent and Constitutional Club, at Bristol, was held on Tuesday last; when it was resolved, after tin animated discussion, to support the nomination of Sir Samuel Romilly, as a proper per- son lo represent lhat city iu Parliament at the next Election. The Festivities at Tredegar, the seat of Sir Charles Morgan, Bart, have this season been conducted with the same liberal hospitality as at former periods. They were on this occasion, however, further enlivened by a grand Masquerade, which took place 011 Monday night, the 6th inst. and afforded the highest entertainment to the numerous visitors.

To Ihe EDITOR of : he SALOPIAN JOVUNAH. SIR— 1 shall be greatly obliged by the insertion of the following accounts from Cambridge. Ybur's, & c. J MI, 9, 1812* CLER'ICUS. Extracls from the proceedings at Cambridge, upon the formation of an Auxiliary Society there, 12th December last — About half past eleven, I, ord Hardwicke entered the Town Hall, which had been crowded at an early hoar, and upon the motion of Lord Francis Osborne, seconded by Dr. DoWett, was unanimously called to the chair. His lordship openid the business df the ( lay, hy s'. atitifc, that he had not attended the meeting from any consideration of bis official situation, either inthe university or the county, but he was happy to meet his friends and neighbours as a Cambridgeshire gentleman, to promote so beneficial an object. He had indeed but lately examined with attention the statements respecting the Bible Society ; but they had produced in his own mind such conviction, that be bail felt equal surprize and regret, when he touud that a contrary opinion was held by some individuals, and particularly by one,' for whose literary attainments he had the highest respect, and whose society he bad never enjoyed without deriving instruction from tiis conversation. He was glad that indi- vidual was i. ot present, that there might he nothing but harmony and unanimity in the meeting. His lordship stated, that during the earlier period of the Bible Society, his official duties had called him to Itelaud*, where, as he was happy to state, from his own knowledge, many respectable Roman CatholicClergymen were anxious to distribute the Bible. The Earl ot Hardvvicke men read the following extract of a letter,, dated December 9, addressed by his Royal Highness the Duke oi Gloucester to the Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Bristol: " As 1 am a warm friend of Ihe Biitish and Foieign Bible Society, I am anxious to see the Auxiliary Society established, being convinced that this institution, so fai from being in- jurious to the Established Church, must be of essential utility to it. * * * * I have to request of your lordship to have the goodness to state to the meeting the impossibilty of my being present, but to convey the assurance ot the warm interest I take in the success of the Auxiliary Bible Socieiy, and to mention my intention of sending a donation of fifty guineas to the institution." His lordship concluded by stating, that he should not expatiate further on tbe objects ofthe BibleSociety, which the Secretaries tiom Ihe. Parent Society, who had favoured the meeting with their presence, were so much mote able to explain. Lord Frar. cis Osborne then rose, and stated to the meeting, that he entirely concurred | in the sentiments of the noble earl, except in one part. He wished that all who object to this society were present, particularly the learned Professor alluded to. & c. Sec.. He concluded by stating, that he should have tbe honour of moving certain resolutions, as the basis of the Cambridge Auxiliary Society, and requested that pre- viouslyto l- isdning this, the Secretaries of the Parent Society, who were then present, would favour the audience with their observations, Mr. Owen I lien came forward, and af'er adverting, in terms of commendation, and with some degree of pleasantry, to the speeches of the noble- lords who preceded him, submitted to the meeting a few preparatory considerations, as necessary lo clear away the rubbish thrown op ( by holy hands indeed, but bands which might, he thought, have been better em- ployed), a. L- ainst that, noble edifice which had been erected for Ihe spiritual benefit of all nations by the British ond Foreign Bible Society. Mr. O. thought it material to observe, that the institution on behalf of which he appeared, was purely voluntary, and theiefore not to lie compared, as to the extent of its Ecclesiastical patronage, with a society which, from the nature and object of its constitution, laid a sort ef imperative claim for patronage on tbe rulers of an established church,— It was, further, an institution which had but one, and that an accurately predefined object, tbe circulation of tbe authorized Bible, without note or comment. It was riot, therefore, fair to identify it with a society which bad a variety of objects. Inasmiuh as it distributes precisely the same Bible- as the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, it should be considered as so far friendly and auxiliary to that society: and inasmuch as it distributes nothing more, it cannot justly be considered as either superseding or designed to supersede the uses of that society.— It is also a society actually in existence and 0| rePation. We do not ( said Mr. O.) appear before you w ith a project for cr* ating a society ; but with an institution which has had the trial of nearly eight years, and that on a scale of prodigious extent. It was, therefore, in the power of every one to determine, by a . reference to experience, whether the principles on which the society was founded were such as could be safely and bene- ficially reduced t" practice; and also to make up his mind whether an instrument of such magnitude, excellence, and popularity, should be shut out from the superintendance and co- operation of our Established Church. Mr. O. submitted tbat the age of a society was not the best criterion of its value. So much stress had been laid on this circumstance, by some injudicious advocates ef the Society lor Promoting Christian Know- ledge, that thev seemed to piize its grey hairs moie than its christian ftuits. For his own part, he thought a society might be considered as old enough for all the purposes of respectability, if it could be shewn, that it had accomplished, in fewer than eight years, the works of a century. Having thus cleared away the rubbish which blocked up the avenues to this temple, and disfigured its walls, be trusted lhat Ihose whom lie addressed would enter and tread its pavement. He should now call upon his two colleagues to display the strength of its foundations, anil the harmony of its proportions. Those witnesses ( he added) would not appear before the meeting, to prophecy in sackcloth, but iu the garments of honour and triumph. Tliey came Hushed with recent and glorious victories, in the adjacent counties of Essex ond Suffolk : and, he trusted, tliey would have l: he satisfaction of seeing, as tbe event of this day's discussion, the county of Cambridge annexed to those iio'y lands on which auxiliary institutions have been erected for the circulation of the Bible.— Mr. O. then concluded au argumentative speech by representing not barely the popu- lation of the United Kingdom, but lhat of the whole world, as interested to a certain degree in the business of this day : and by reminding the assembly, that in aiding this glorious cause by the establishment of an Auxiliary Society, in so important and commanding a station, they would render themselves bcnefactois, iu uo common degree, to men of everv nation under Heaven. Mr. Steinkopff ( Secretary for the Foreign Department) npologir. ing for ihe difficulties under which he laboured as a foreigner, said be would venture to plead tbe cause of humanity in a language to which he was almost a stranger; but he hoped to be heard w ith that candbur which he had alw- ays found so highly characteristic of the British nation. He then proceeded, with matchless simplicity and eloquence, to set forth the advantages already experienced abroad by the establishment of the Bible Society; and described, in most affecting terms, the gratitude expressed by the inhabitants of very remote segions, for tbe blessings communicated to them from this land of piety and benevolence. He instanced the tribes of Finlandcrs and Laplanders, who, from their comfort- less abodes in regions beyond the Arclic, had been allured to the north of the Gnlph of Bothnia by the contributions made to them from Ihe Auxiliaiy Bible Society of Stockholm, which, as a grateful tribute to the soriows of an injured Monarch, it should be recollected had been established by the unfortunate Gustacus. by means of it the blessed light of tbe Gospel had been carried even to the shores of the Icy Sea, among a people who, in addition to the chilling horrors of their frozen and barien territory, were further subdued by the most lamentable mental darkness; and so eager weie they for I he possession of the long- promised gift, that for a single copy of the Bible they had been found to have undei- taken and accomplished the most surpiizing journie?. Wa- not this a subject for the most delightful meditation! Was there a single iuhabilant of Great Britain who would not feel tiis bosom warmed, in the reflection that his country had tieen the means nf conveying the cheating beams of revelation to the cold and gloomy dwelling of the poor Laplaudei 1 Nor was it only to those distant realms lhat the exertions of the Auxiliaiy Bible Society of Stockholm had been extended, lt had been found upon enquiiy that nearer Ihe very seat of the Swedish Government, theic were thousands of Swedes without the possession of a single copy of the Bible. And then adverting to the state of Germany, his native country, he begged leuve, in the name of every German, to offer the expressions of his gratitude f r the acts of beneficence which the London Society had extended to them. Such was, lie- said, the want of Bibles throughout all Germany, with the exception of Saxony alcne, lhat he scarce knew a part of Eniope which called more for the notice it had received. The love he bore his own country, he said, calltd for I be grateful acknowledgement, lhat the Gospel of Pence had already been printed in the German Language, and that the Old Testament was also printing. Many of the former hud been distributed among the German soldiers in the Biitish service, who are now fighting the battles of Englaf. d and of Europe. And who could have the heart to deny to a wounded soldier the consolation of a Bible! Recollect, gentlemen, said he, that, in the instant when 1 ain addressing you, thousands and tehs of thousands are lifting up their hands and hearts to God for the preservation of England. Thousands whose names Englishmen will never know, till the book of God's rehiembrance shell be opened at the day of judgement. Mr. Steii. kopff concluded with a fervent prayer, that the Almighty would be pleased to extend his blessings to all the inhabitants oi Great Britain— to its amiable, but deeph afflicted Sovereign iu particular j to Ihe Prince Regent, aud all the members of the Royal Family ; lo the Chancellor, and the members of this uiiivetsity ; to those especially, who ivilh such gladness and hnanimity, such liberal zeal hnd distinguished piety, have here met together to communicate toothers ihe blessings they themselves enjoy, aud 10 magnify tlie name ofthe Lord. £ To be continued.'] IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF I- ORDS, TUESDAY, JANUARY 7. The Duke of Devonshire, Lord Calthorpc, and the Bishop of Derry, took the oaths and their seats.— The Commissioners for opening the Parliament were the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lord Chancellor, Earl Camden, the Earl of Westmoreland, and the Marquis Wcllesley.— Having taken their seats 6n the Woolsack-, the Lord Chancellor read the following Speech: My Lords and Gentlemen, We are commanded by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent lo express to you the deep sorrow which he feels ill announcing to yon the continuance of his Majesty's lamented indisposition, and the unhappy disappointment of those hopes of his Majesty's early recovery which had been cherished by the dutiful affection Of his family and the loyal attach- ment of his people. The Prince Regent has directed copies of the last reports of her Majesty the Queen's Council to be laid before you, and he is satisfied that you will adopt such measures as the pre- sent melancholy exigency may appear to require. In securing a suitable and ample provision for ihe support of tiis Majesty's loyal dignity, aud for the attendance upon his Majesty's sacred person during his illness, the Prince Regent rests assured, tbat you will also bear in mind the indispeusibte duty of continuing to preserve for his Majesty the facility of resuming the personal exercise of his royal authority in the happy event of his recovery so earnestly de sired by the wishes and the prayers of his family and bis subjects. The Prince Regent directs us to signify to you the satis- faction with which his Royal Highness has observed, that the measures which have been pursued for tbe defence and se- curity of the kingdom of Portugal have proved completely effectual, and lhat on the several occasions in which the British or Portuguese troops had been engaged with the enemy, the reputation already acquired by them has been fully maintained. ' I'lie successful and brilliant enterprise which terminated in the surprize in Spanish Estremadura of a French corps by a detachment of the allied army under Lieutenant Geneial Hill, is highly creditable to tbat distinguished officer, and to the tioops under his command, and has contributed materially to obstruct the designs of the enemy in that part of the Penin- sula. The Prince Regent is assured, that while you reflect with pride and satisfaction on the conduct of his Majesty's troops, and of the allies, in these various ami important services, you will render justice to the consummate judgement and skill dis- played hy General Lord Viscount Wellington, in the direc- tion of the campaign. Tn Spain the spirit of the people re- mains unsubdued j and the system of warfare so peculiarly adapted to the actual condition of the Spauish nation, has been recently extended aud improved, under the advantages which result from the operation of the allied armies on the frontier, and from the countenance aud assistance of his Majesty's navy on the coast. Although the great exertions of the enemy have in some quarters been attended with success, his Royal Highness is persuaded, that you will adinii the perseverance and gallantry manifested by the Spanish armies. Even iu those provinces principally occupied by the French forces, new energy has arisen among the people ; and the incieaseof the. difficulty and danger has produced nlore connected efforts of general resistance. The P| ilice Regent, in the name and on the behalf of his Majesty, commands lis to express his confident hope that you will enable him to contiuue to afford the most effectual aid and assislance in the support ot the contest, which the brave nations of the Peninsula still maintain with such unabated zeal and resolution. His Royal Highness commands us to express his congratu lations on the success of th'e British arms in the Island of Java The Prince Regent trusts that you will concur with his Royal Highness in approving the wisdom and ability with which this enterprise, as well as the Capture of the Islands of Bourbon and Mauritius, has been conducted under the im- mediate diicction of the Governor General of India ; and that you will applaud the decision, gallantry, and spirit con- spicuously displayed in the late operations of the brace army under the command of that, distinguished officer Lieutenant- General Sir Samuel Achmuty, so powerfully and ably sup- ported by bis Majesty's naval forces. By the completion of this system of operations, great ad- ditional security will have been given to the British commerce and possessions in the East Indies, and the colonial power of France will have beeu entirely extinguished. His Royal Highness thinks it expedient to recommend to your attention the piopnetyof providing such measures for the future government of the British possessions in India, as shall appear from experience, aud upon mature deliberation, to be calculated to secure their internal prosperity, and to derive li om those flourishing dominions the utmost degree of advan- tage to the commerce aud revenue of ihe united kingdom. We are commanded by the Prince, Regent to acquaint you, that while bis Koyal Highne- rs regrets that various important subjects of difference with the Government of the United States of America still remain unadjusted, the difficulties which Ihe affair of theChesapeake frigate had occasioned have been finally removed ; and that we are directed to assure you, that in the further progress of the discussions with the United States, the Prince Regent will continue to employ such means of conciliation as may be eonsisleut with the honour and dig- nity of his Majesty's Crown, and with the due maintenance of the maritime aud commercial rights and interests of the British Empire. Gentlemen of the House of Commons, liis Royal Highness has directed the estimates for the service of the current year to be laid before you. He trusts that you wilt furnish him u- iih such supplies as may be necessary to enable him to continue the contest in which his Majesty is engaged with lhat spirit and exertion which will afford the best prospect of its successful termination. Ilis Koyal Highness commands us to recommend that you should resume the consideration of the state of the finances of Ireland, which you had commenced in the last session of Parliament. He has the satisfaction to inform you lhat the improved receipt of the revenue of Ireland in the last, as com pared witli the preceding year, confirms the belief that the depression which lhat revenue had experienced is to be at- tributed to accidental and temporary causes. My Lords anil . Gentlemen, Tlie Pr. nce Regent is satisfied tbat yon entertain a just sense of the aiduous duties which his Koyal Highness has beei called upou to fulfil, in consequence of his Majesty's cou tinued indisposition. Under this severe calamity his Royal Highness derives the greatest consolation from his icliance on your experienced wisdom, loyalty, and public spirit to which in every difficulty he will resort, with a firm confidence lhat, through your as- sistance and support, be shall be enabled, under Ihe blessings of Divine Providence, successfully to discharge the important functions of the high trust reposed ill him, and in the name and on the behalf of his beloved father and revered Sovereign, to maintain unimpaired the prosperity and honour of the nation. The Address, which was as usual an echo of the speech, was moved by the Earl of Shaftesbury, aud seconded hy Lord Brownlow. Loid GBENV ILLE said, it would have been much more satis- factory to hiin if he could have agreed with the Address iu a l it- parts. But he was not surprised at ihe tenor ol it, since it came from those men who, in Ihe deep distresses of their country, have added to them, not diminished them. Some parts he must agree with, in common with the whole nation. To those expressions of regret for the continued illness of his Majesty, as well as to the wish that the Government, during thai time, should be maintained in such a way as " to secuie the easy resumption of his authority, in case of his wished for recovery, he would give his most cotdial approbation. To the well merited praises bestowed on our brave troops, lie would add his poor tribute of thanks and applause ; and he was sure their laurels would not wither, however great be the follies of their employers. He would not even offer an amendment to the present Address, but should content himself with protest- ing, lhat he was not included among those who approve of the past measures; nor among those who acquiesced with those which arc now pursued ; but declared, tbat it was his belief, that tio good could be expected without a total abandonment of these measures. He still retained his former opinion, that our present lavish expenditure ought lo be saved for tlife pro- tec iion cif the rlfttion. He still retained his former opinion respecting the association between the Government and the Bank ot England, by which a base coin and a depreciated paper was forced upon the country ; and in which tbe Bank was principal, aud the Government a participator in tile fraud. With respect to tbe measures pursued towards Ireland, he still retained his opinion that they were most essentially wrong.- 4- The House would observe, that Parliament was not called by the Speech to consider the situation of that country, or to at- tend to the alleviation of the people's wrongs; but merely the best means of increasing the revenue of that country. In ttie present Session, however, the affairs of that country would be brought to a crisis'; and the House must come to a deter- mination as to the nature of the relationship which must subsist between thit country and Great Britain.— It was come to that crisis wheh the Catholics Of Ireland ' must be allowed the privileges of British subjects. The Earl of I. Iv>'?." ooi. always wished that the Address should be carried with unanimity, and he was now most anxi- ous that such should be the case; but he could not purchase that unanimity at the expense of public duty and principles. The noble Lord bad said that he still retained his former opi- nions ; but he would say that experience and facts had proved those opinions to be unfounded. lie was confident that the chance which this connt'ry has of safely, and the hopes which Europe entertains of deliverance, depend on the system pur- sued by Ministers; and wilh whatever expense the Spanish war was maintained by this country, he was assured it was for our own advantage. Wilh regard to Ireland, he would not at present say any thing; but he was prepared to defend the measures adopted by the Government of this country, ail well as those of the noble Duke who presided in that. The Address was then agreed to, without any Amendment or Division. HOUSE OF COMMONS. When the House had returned from hearing the speech'of the Prince Regent in the House of Peers, it was again read by the cleik, wbeu Sir F. BURDETT unexpectedly rose, and after a speech of some length, embracing a great variety of his usual topics, moved au Address to the Prince Regent; which was seconded by Lord COCHRANE.— Loid JOCELYN, ( whose intention was to haVe moved the Address) then rose; and by way of amendment to Sir F. Burdelt's address, pro- posed his own ; which was seconded by Mr. Vyse, and after some observations by Mr. Whitbread, Mr. Pousonby, Mr. Perceval, Mr. Biddnlph, & c. respecting Irish affairs, the House divided ; For Lord Jocelyn's Amendment ... ... 233 For Sir F. Burrlett's Address 3 namely, Sir F. Burdett, Lord Cochrane ( the Tellers), and Mr. Cuthbert. [ From what fell from the great leaders of oppositiori in both Houses on the motion for au address, it would appear as if they mean to make their grand effort against Ministry on the subject ofthe Catholic question, which, no doubt will be warmly agitated in both Houses.— It is however supposed, lhat notwithstanding the notices given, it will not be seriously brought forward until the restrictions upon the Prince Regent shall have expired, and it has beeii ascertained what line of policy his Royal Highness means to pursue. HOUSE OF COMMONS, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8. On the motion for bringing up the Report on the Address to the Prince Regent, Mr. WHITS RE AN, Mr. CREEVEY, and Mr. HUIEHINSON opposed it, and took occasion to observe at some length on the impolicy of Ministers towards foreign countries, aud argued strongly against it; particularly with respect to America and France. — They were replied to by the Chancellor of the Exche- quer.— Mr. CREEVEY proposed that the Address should be postponed till this day week. This however was negatived ; the Address was read a first and second tiiile, and ordered to be presented. CHRONOLOGICAL SKETCH Of the most remarkable Events in the Year 1811, JANUARY. I.

" We, the underwritten Members of the Council appointed to assist Her Majesty in the execution of Ihe trusts committed to Her Majesty, by virtue of the Statute passed iu the Fifty- first year of His Majesty's Reign, intituled, " An Act to provide for tbe Administration id' the Royal Authority, and for the care of His Majesty's Royal Person, during the continuance of His Majesty's illness, aud for the resumption of the exercise of the Royal Authority by His Majesty :" having duly met together, on this fourth day of January, 1812, at the Queen's Lodge, near to Windsor Castle, and having called before us, and examined upon oath, the Physicians and other persons attendant upon His Majesty, and having ascertained the state of His Majesty's health, by all such ways and means as appeals to us to be necessary for that purpose, do hereby declare and certify, that the state of His Majesty's health at the time, of this our Meeting, is not such as to enable His Majesty to resume the personal exercise of His Koyal Authority.

That a " Knowledge of a Disease is half its Cure," is an adage which never was more fully verified than in the Ve- nereal Disease, wHich Proteus like, assumes so manv differ- ent forms, that it requires no small portion of experieiice and knowledge to distinguish some of its symptoms from other complaints, and to apply wilh efficacy such leinedies as will pioduce a radical cure without uuderminiug tbe constitution. The Anti Impetigines, or Solomon's Drops, is the long sought for remedy lor all its stages, when Mercury or Antimony, Nitrous Acid, and other Medicines so fashionable of late, prove abortive. These Drops prove of the higliest utility in all cases of " depraved habit, with affections of the skin ;" hence its efficacy in cases of Scurvy, Sfcfofula or Leprosy, a » well as in the confirmed Lues ; and hence by its sanative power it expels Ihe virus out of the system, and restores it to convalescence when impaired by Disease or the deleterioas preparations of Mercury, Antimony, and Aquafortis. This sovereign remedy may now be had of all reputable Venders of Genuine Medicines throughout the United Kingdom, in Half- Guinea aud 33s. Family Bottles, containing four lesser ones.

SIR, IHAD been five years afflicted with deafness; on my coming into this country in my professional line, ( land surveying) I saw Dr. Taylor's Remedy advertised iu the Lewes paper, and knowing Miss Fuller personally, I was in- duced to buy a bottle of the remedy of Mr. Smith, of Newhaven, which cured me on the first application. As 1 am obliged to be out in all weathers, my deafness al-. vavs returns on taking cold, I have not used Ihe remedy for neaily 12 months until this day, aud have been for some time rather deaf ; this afternoon 1 applied it again according to the directions given with it, and could hear as well as ever in half au hour afterwards. I am now resolved lo keep it always at hand, and beg you will publish my statement to the world, in oruer that sucli an invaluable medicine may be more generally kuown.
