SOLOMON'S CORDIAL BALM OF GILEAD is universally acknowledged to be a most agreeable and power ful restorative in all nervous disorders. This celebrated Cordial is peculiarly efficacious in inward wastings, loss of appetite, indiges tion, depression of spirits, trembling er shaking of the hands,ekorts nest of breath, and constooptive habits ; it eases the most violent pains in the bead and stomach, and, promotes gentle perspiration. By the Nobility and Gentry this Medicine is much admired, being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringing the fibies of the stomach, and giving that proper tensity which a good digestion re ctify'. Nothing can be better adapted to assist the constitution which has been much injured by debauch with wine, by the irre gularities of youthful age, habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure; or those who from any cause have fallen into a de spondent state of mind, or that distressing train of symptoms, COM mualy denominated the Nervous. In ouch persons the mental powers are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy without interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. Purchasers of this medicine should be awe to ask for Dr. Solo. mon's Cordial Balm of Gilead. and should look for the name en graved on the stamp, viz. " Saml. Solomoo, Liverpool," without which none is genuine. Sold by• Mr. R.

SOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, so enrap tured his auditors with the subject, that the married nienfiew to theirwives, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded ; and " The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word" wife" is the most agreeable and delightful name in nature. The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the deride ratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with happiness on earth, but disposing the soul itself to harmonize with bliss hereafter. Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions ' but to cleanse the grosser nature front those impurities which the free dom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless in stances, which, while they excite the commiseration of the be holder, should also impress hint with the fear of self-reproach. , Luxurious habits will effentinlzo the body—a residence in thetro pies will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the pre matUre infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized suf ferer snore than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address ourselves, offering hope—energy—muscular strengt,h— felicity ; nor will our advances appear questionable, sanctioned as they are by the multiplied proofs of 20 years successful experience. The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the sus pension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath —fur the female habit is often constitutionally weakyet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxa tion of. the generative economy, we pledge our ability to cure spee dily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling empyric from the position so' presumptuously taken up,. we de viate from genesal principles with less hesitation; and confident in our own honourable integrity as Membtrs of the College of Sur geons, we refer the suffering community of tither sex (especially those entering into matrhnonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given fur personal consultation; and letters from, the country are immediately answered ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and :%leclicine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world,-however distant.

SP4IN. ' The private accounts which we receive from Spain continue to present the same melancholy picture of dis organization and confusion which has displayed itself for years past ; and the change of Government seems to produce little more ea , e, as has been eloquently said on another subject, than the change of position on a bed of agony. A recent letter from Cadiz mentions some impressive particulars. "An English Gentleman (says our Correspondent) came hither a few days ago from Gibraltar. He was escorted part of the way by a detachmbnt of General O'Donnell's Royalist Army frpts A lgesirat : the men had nothing like discipline, and many of them amused themselves with singing Consti tutional songs all the way. You must not, however, suppose from this that they would not be ready enough to plunder or ill-treat anybody who had the misfor tune to be marked out to their vengeance as a Negro, for that is the term of reproach for a Constitutionalist. —Shortly after the affair at Tarifa, about thirty half pay Spanish Officers were apprehended at Huelva, and brought prisoners to Seville, where they were beaten, pelted with stones, wounded with knives, and otherwise cruelly treated, on their way to the_ ail by the common people—not from any loyal feeling, but merely from, that love of cruelty and licentiousness which, I am sorry to sly, characterizes the Spaniards of the present day. At Seville, the populace frequently seize Ladies in the 'streets, and cut off their hair if they think it too leing ; sometimes, in the same brutal manner, they shorten the petticoats of the Ladies. The gates of Seville are closed every evening at sunset, and are nevej,opened till sun rise ; and this is rendered necessary by the bands of robbers which are prowling about in every direction through the country. There was a time when Spain was accused, not with out some rea on, of aiming at Universal Monarchy ; and when Mazarin and Cromwell united to curb a poirer "at which the world grew pale." Now there remains nothing of that formidable power but the pride which it engendered, and which prevents all parties in Spain from listening to the advice of their hest friends. Nothing can be more melancholy than the contempla tion of a country thus destitute of a governing mind, and resolutely rejecting the friendship of its best benefactors. We are happy to find that the accounts of illness at Cadiz have been exaggerated. " The city and garri son (says this Correspondent)- were never more healthy: and with the measures so well organised by the French and carried into effect by themselves, there is no appre hension of yellow fever being imported. Cadiz has al ways heretofore been sacrificed to inattention. The yel- . low fever has never appeared when the place, has been blockaded : and in Gibraltar no pestilential disease has existed since the measures adopted in 1813. PRIVATE. CORRESPONDENCE MADIUD, SIMSCIIIIER 9. The following is from St. Ildefonso—" The cold is so severe here at present, that in the Palace all the braseros (brasiers) have been lighted ; so trillium] a tem perature has not been favourable to the King's health, who is suffering under a slight attack of the gout. How ever, he contioues to transact business with the Minister Colomarde, to whom the other Secretaries of State send their respective reports. The day before yesterday a note was presented to his Majesty, signed by all the Members of the Diplomatic Body, in which they de mand, in the names of their respective Sovereigns, that all those Spaniards who were partisans of Joseph Bona parte (Afrancesados), should be restored to the enjoy ment of their civil tights, and those amongst them re markable for their talent and probity, and who filled elevated situations under Charles IV. and Ferdinand VII.' should receive pensions proportioned to their rank. " The King received very graciously the proposition, and sent it to the Council of Castile, who are to make a report to him on it. The Ex-Minister, Cruz, is still in solitary confinement. As yet he has undergone no examination. The Officers of the Royal Guard, whose arrest took place at the same time, are also in solitary confinement in the same prison. Several persons have been arrested in the provinces, suspected of being im plicated in the same affair, and twelve apartments are said to be preparing in the tower of Segovia, a state :prison, for the reception of as many prisoners. It is ! reported that Count d'Ofalia has been arrested at Gra nada ; others say that he has escaped to Tangier; this I should think unlikely. _ _ _ 64 A report prevails here since yesterday, that a holy of Constitutionalists had disembarked at Gijon (a sea• port in the A•aulias), and that the few Royali - st troops there were put to the sword. I am inclined to doubt the truth of this report, as the last letters from the king dom of Leon and Old Castile Fay not a word of so int portant an event. There is little doubt, however, but r there is something wrong, or the dread of it, in that quarter, fur two Spanish regiments left this lately, and were directed to proceed by forced marches to Asturias." Every circumstance connected with Mr. Fanntleroy's name excites the most intense interest throughout the metropolis. People wonder and inquire what he could have done with, or how disposed of, such exten sive sums of money as those named in the warrants of attorney brought forward on the last examination; but, perhaps, they. will express somewhat more astonish ment when they learn that those sums are but a small part of the depredations charged upon the prisoner. It is already pretty clearly ascertained at the Bank off' Eng land., that in the way of warrants of attorney alone, he has exceeded onpfnuffh7ort of a million sterling, in dependent of all other transactions with which the Bank of England has nothing to do. The list of persons whose stuck has been sold out without their knowledge is immense: his own mother, and other members of his family, have had large sums of their property disposed of in this way ; but in many cases Mr. Fauntleroy was sole trustee. Some time ago, property left by the late Sir Thomas Plaistoe, tho Magistrate, to the amount of 22,0001. was paid into the banking-hoese to which Mr. Fauntleroy belonged, with instructions to have it im mediately invested in the funds; but it now appears that no stock was ever purchased with the money, and it is gone in the general wreck. The sum of 1,7001. lit Exchequer bills was deposited within a few weeks in the house for security, by one .of the Commissioners of Paving. for the palish of St. Pancras, the whole of which is now discovered to have been circulated, and since paid off at the Exchequer-office of the Treasury. In short, it would, we understand, be endless, almost, to go through the •arious transactions of this descrip tion that have taken place. The Queen's Lying-iit Hospital is sufferer in its funds to a considerable amount. The various sums in stock sold out under forged warrants of attorney were generally intrusted by Mr. Fauntleroy to his partner, Mr. Graham, for disposal, as he was the one of the firm who most frequently attended to the business of the house in the City during the day. Mr. Graham, who had no sort of suspicion as to the na ture of the instruments upon which he was acting, usually, according to the directions he received, sold out from the names of the trustees, and purchased in the name of Mr. Fauntleroy alone, or transferred from one to the other. The stock being thus at Mr. Fauntle. roy's own disposals he himself sold out at his pleasure. The first instrument of this nature alleged to be forged, is, we understand, dated as far back as 1808: this was of course made use of, and the stock sold out under it, many years before Mr. Graham joined the firm ; so that he could not have been made an instrument of on that occasion. Indeed, we believe, about that period, or soon after, Mr. Graham, who is a Colonel in the Army, embarked on military service for the Peninsula, where for several years, to the end of the campaign, lie con tinued to serve under the Duke of Wellington, who has often spoken in the highest terms of his gallantry. On one storming enterprise, a sort of forlorn hope, he was the only surviving Officer out -of nine who entered upon it : he has been severely and repeatedly wounded in various parts of his body. Mr. Graham feels the ruin brought upon him as a peculiar hardship,..as a .partner in this banking-house, because the greater part, or at least a great portion, of Mr. Fauntleroy's practicer had been carried on, as appeirs by the dates, long be fore Mr. Graham became a partner. It would certainly appear at the first view extraordinary, how Mr. Faunt. leroy, who was never known to be a man of any exten sive play, could have managed to dispose of such vast sums of money, within a compratively short period, as his proceedings put him in possession of, independent of his regular profits arising from his partnership it s elf ; the average of which, we undeistand, for the last five years, has been 14,0001. annually amongst the whole of Lb pattners. So that allowing Mr. Fauntleroy a re gula proportion of a fourth part, as the most active and managing partner, it left 3,5001. a year at his dis posal, which one might consider to be a very handsome income for what we may call a single man ; because, although Mr. Fadntleroy is, in point of fact and law, a married man, yet he has never had any family or esta blishthent to support in that capacity. If, however, we take another view of all the circumstances in which this unfortunate man was involved, it m..y not, perhaps, be very difficult to throw a light upon the channels through which his receipts issued from him. Mr. Fauntleroy, we - understand, was admitted a part. ner into the' house or Marsh and Co. more out of re spect and compliment to his father after his death, who had been one of the original members of the firm, than on account of any , property which he himself could bring into the establishment. His accurate knowledge of business, and the great facility with which he dis patched and arranged accounts, soon made him as ac. quisitiOn ; and for some years past he has been almost the sole acting manager of the business of the house. Mr. Marsh is a very elderly Gentleman, we believe little short of eighty years of age, and could not, of course, attend much to business. Mr. Stracey spent the greater portion of his time enjoying the pleasures of the country. Mr. Graham, from the nature of his profes sional military life, and the short time he has been in the concern, could not be expected :o know much of banking or any other business: so that Mr. Fauntleroy may be cor.sidered as the firm himself, in point of ac tivity. He was acquainted minutely with every descrip tion of public securities, both foreign and domestic, and could instantly tell their respective and relative valuei. Mr. Fauntleroy's family were intimate with a respect able but not an opulent family, of the name of Young. One of the daughters of this family, a handsome young Lady,attracted the attachment of Mr.HenryFauntleroy ; and their intercourse ended in Miss Young's giving birth to a child. The young Lady's family, on discovering their relation's disgrace, remonstrated with Mr. Fauntl eroy, and urged the necessity of making the only repara tion. in his power-by marrying the-mother of his .Mr. Fauntleroy, however, felt little disposition to do so; but one of the -ycnang Lady's brothers, a spirited Joung man, indignant at the disgrace east upon his family and name,- insisted upon the proper reparation being made, or that. Mr. Fauntleroy should choose another alternative. .This threat strengthened the determination of Mr Fauntleroy not to submit to the propooditranu e and arrangements were in progress to settle the to in the field. Mr. Fauntleroy's own family, however, now.
