At any rate, not being employed in the squadron, but having a particular mission, that mission finished, no p2rEltl can dispose of me. " in recapltulution, if the demotion which I have been m: de ' to stiffer, at Longwood, is to subject me to the same restrictions as the French, my right as an Englishman, which I have always pet served, protects me from it. If it is a regulation for the exercise of my functions as Surgeon, I have given no clew for complaint, lam accountable to the patient to whom I am at tached for the performance of them. If it is a punishment, nty crime ought to be made known to me. I should be heard, in order to answer it ; and judgment should have been pronounced upon it ere now. But the Governor wished to dispose of my *nation. By letters, written from tondon more than twelve Months back, I was informed that his Excellency bad demand . - 01 my being replaced; and in July, 1817, I expressed my see raise to himself that he had done so, which produced an ex p la'- tion that brought &mit upon me a tolerable portion of abustt was also informed that the tiovermhent did not consent to it. If dab be comet, it is for hint t$ judge whether the conduct which has been put in practice towards me.. . and which obliges me by force, and nut by consent, to-give in my resignation. is conformable to the respect due to his intentions? Since June last, I foresaw that such were his Excellency's views, and eons -1 municated to the Admiral's Secretary the unpleasant situation in which I was placed, and the apprehensions I was under. " As Napoleon has not seen me since the 14th of April last, and I fear that some dangerous effects ma ,. occur from it, I !),:g leave to propose putting matters upon the ' footing they formarix were until the arrival of an answer from England. lam in clined to think, that if Napoleon were informed that the Go. vemor considered me as his Surgeon, as holding the place of a French Surgeon, not being subject to military discipline, but to civil obedience, that things were put upon the footing they were since my arrival, at least until the 'receipt of an answer from Government, that he would renew theconfidenne which he for. merly manifested. The actual state of matters now is appalling. and will probably produce a most unpleasant sensation, both in England and Europe. The Governor may, perhaps, reflect upon the terrible responsibility winZh weighs upon him, if (as is pos. sible, and even very probable) Napalms, deprived of assistance, was to die before the expiration of the five or six mouths which are required to obtain an answer. from England.

" Excellency the Governor having prohibited my writing direct to him by a letter of Major Gorrequer, dated the £3d of April, I beg of you to lay before him the following obser vations upon the letter which you wrote by his directions on the 11th of April last. " I persist in my assertion, that at the commencement of June last, and antecedent and subsequent to it, his Excellency the Governor made known to me intentions of subjecting me to the same restrictions as the French, saying, that since I was Napo.' leon Bonaparte's Surgeon, and forming part of his family, I ought to be subjected to the same restrictions. To which I as that our Government had granted to Napoleon the pd. vilege of taking with him to St. Helena three of his Officers, twelve servants, and his Surgeon, n and that I was pointed out by Count Bertrand to replace the French Surgeo, but that Wit being willing to relinquish my character as a British Meer, I bad made conditions that I should be placed on the list as a Bar , geon on full pay, and that I should be paid by the English Go vernment, and consequently should not ever be considered as' , out of the protection of the laws of my country. Lord Keith, the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, and the Govern went, had it in their power to refuse a compliance with these stipulations, but in that case I would not have accepted the em ployment, and would have preferred remaining upon half pay,' after the paying off the Bellerophon, to being employed as a Sur geon in an equivocal situation, which might lead to a supposition that I had fora moment renounced the character and other titles appertaining unto a British Officer. As a proof of this, I sent to his Excellency my letter to Lord Keith. " It is not as a Naval Surgeon that I am placed about Napo- I 'eon's person, who might just as well have chosen one from' amongst the Army Surgeons, or amongst the Private and Civil Surgeons or Physicians practising in London or Edinburgh, be ,cause the decision of our Government was, that he should take with him his Surgeon, and Lord Keith proposed to send a vessel to France expressly fur the purpose of bringing him one ; and before authorising me to accept of Count Bertrand's proposal, his Lordship insisted that Count Bertrand should write an one cial letter to him, in which he made known that Napoleon de mended me as his Surgeon, in place of the French Sutgeon. " If the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty caused mete be borne as Supernumerary Surgeon of the Northumberland,' Newcastle, and Conqueror, it was on account of my own de- , mend en be kept upon the list of Surgeons on full pay, and , was just the same as if their Lordships had placed me on the books of the Bag ship at the Noretottio . outh, or Ilynionth kaz rundihat to me by ordeeArdirildmiralty, as l!iargenti to Na poleon Bonaparte), but this does not confer any right or autho ritrupon the Officers of the Conqueror, or the Admiral over me personally; indeed, the Admiral signified as much to me, and his Excellency the Governor himself, has repeatedly told me the saute; and moreover, prohibited my communicating to the Ad miral any thing relative to Longwood. If the Captain of the ship, upon the books of which I am borne, or even the Admiral, has uo right to give me any orders in the extraordinary mission with which I am entrusted, I am not subordinate to any other ntan titan the Governor, nut in a military point of view, or as a navaeOfficer, hut by a civil title, and as Surgeon to Napoleon Bonaparte, with the charge of whom he has been entrusted, and as such, I have never failed in executing whatever he imposed upon me, except inasmuch as I found it ,ontrary to my honour. I know well, Sir, that military obedience Is passive, and does not admit of any hesitation. or objection ; but it is not so with civil obedience, and still less so in a person charged with an em ployment of so delicate a nature as I am. I am'a poor man, and ten years service in the navy have not enriched me, and I stand in need of my situation in order to gain a livelihood, but I am ready to sacrifice it a thousand times over sooner than allow a stain to be, directly or Indirectly, cast upon my character. " For the due performance of my medical functions until now, I have considered myself as not having any explanation to ren. der, except to Napoleon himself. Ile has made no complaint against the manner in which I have fulfilled them. Indeed, on the contrary, I have frequently been applaudiel by him as well as by other patients in his suite for the zeal with which I admi nistered my profeAsional assistance. " When I accepted the situation, I made known to Count ' Bertrand that I would not willingly quit Napoleon so long as be remained in the unfortunate situation in which he was placed, and in the presence of Captain Maitlacd I made an open engage ment to attend Napoleon and the Officers of his suite, indepen dent of all hatred or national prejudice, of any influence what ever in the administration of my professional assistance as a me dical man, and that I would employ as muchzeal, attention,and fidelity towards them as could be expected from me by one of any own countrymen. I deny the intentions which you attribute to me of desiring to quit Longwood, and assert it to be unfounded. " You declare that it was known in England, and make a supposition that I was the person who nude such intention known, which supposition you argue upon as being correct; am ready to remain at Longwood provided (as I said in my letter of the 19th of April) I am allowed to exercise my voca tion as before the 10th of Aprll, end with the same indepen dence. From the first day of.his Excellency's arrival be appear ed desirous of sending me away, although I had never given .him cause to do so, probably because I belonged to the Navy, and that having been demanded by Napoleon I had nut been appointed by his Excellency himself. Upon this occasion I had often opportunities of making known what a wide difference Napoleon nude between a Surgeon who had been chosen by himself and any Surgeon belonging to the Army, let him he who he would, and that those who imagined if the person in whom be had confidence was removed he would bestow it upon another, knew his character very badly. • " You say, Sir, that if I were onboard a man of war, I would be obliged to obey every order I received from the Captain. I grant this, agil that if I were ordered to cook the victuals of the sick I would comply with it, because the design of this would be for the good of his Majesty's service and for the honour of his flag, and because military , obedience does not adtilt of any deliberation ; but I have always considered that Sr. Helena is not a man of war, that the Governor is not the Captain, and that I am not the Surgeon of the crew; but that'St. Helena is' a Government of one of our possessions, that Sir Iludson Lowe' is the Governor and commands by virtue of a civil title, that I form one of Napoleon's suite, and am attached to his person with the functions df Surgeon. " I do not reply to the different suppositions'you have made, otherwise than by deelarirg them calumniei. I have made with Wades& las pact which I meetioned above, and such as exist bemoan all men of honour, and lit every society of gentlemen. Yon, insinuations do not inspire use with the smallest fear.— With li pure conscience, and born an Englishman, nothing is to be dreaded from such engines of tyranny, nor from half or quarter proofs. A Jury or a Court-martial is the privilege of every Englishman, and is his guarantee against every act of arbitrary power—is the guarantee of the weak and the simple against fhe powerful; and if the fluverumetii accepts my resig uation, rather than allow um to cautiiiiir to peasant my avoea- This day were published, price 3s. 6d. sewed, THREE ESSAYS on the PROXIMATE ME CILANICAL CAUSES of the GENERAL PHENO MENA of the UNIVERSE: 1.

THE CORDIAL BALM of (RILE AD is uni v er- A. sally acknowledged to be the most agreeable and powerful restorative in all Nervous Disorders ever discovered. This cele brated Cordial is peculiarly efficacious in all inward wasting', loss of appetite, indigertion,depression of spirits, trembling or shaking of the bands or limbs, obstinate coughs shortness of breath and consumptive habits ; it thins the blood, eases the most violent pains in the head and stomach, and promotesgentle perspiration. By the Nobility and Gentry this Medicine is much admired,be ing pleasant to the taste and smell, gently ;stringing the fibres of the stomach, and giving that proper tensity which a good diges tion requires. Nothing can be better adapted to help and nou risth the constitution after a debauch with wine, &c. Much has been said by interested individuals against Medicines that are advertised, but there is a very important observation to be made respecting the Cordial Balm of Gilead, that unless Its operation was gentle, safe, and efficacious in those complaints for which it is recommended, and universally administered with in variable success, it could not have attained the unexampled de mand it has acquired ; for, as it has rarely the great advantage of a persuasive advocate r so nothing but his conviction of its virtues, by its salutary effect*, can induse perseverance, and yet reason able perseverance i; certainly most requisite to enable even the hapriest combination of Chemicals and ffialenkals to root out chronic diseases and restore the valetudinarian so health.

The following extract of a letter frdm Lisbon, dated July 25, presents a melancholy picture of the state into which this once celebrated emporium of coin merce has fallen : " I should say generally of this city, and the country around it, that it conveys to the mind an impression i,l penury and de cay, like that of a parent whose substance is wrested from hilts to aggrandize his offspring. It is not sufficient to say-that the superfluities, the very necessaries and means of subsistence, ap.. pear to have been carried off and transported from this country Ito the new seat of Government. The conntgl houses of the Nobility and Gentry are in a neglected and decaying state, or, what is a still noire striking evidence, remain half fiaibhed. Tue public buildings are in a state of still greater dilapidation, and the inhabitants, listless and inactive, wander about the streets as if they ha no object in existence. Nothing can restore or save the city'from quick decay, hut an event which all agree is not to be calculated on—the return of the Costal front Lisbon, in all probability, is doomed to swell the list of com mercial cities whose glories are no more ; and to be noarbered with the Tyres and Alexandria' of aotlyoty."
