My Son William, when about a year old. was afflicted with the Measles, which left a spot on his leg. This soon ulcerated and spread,' , forming a large wound. The surgeon to whom we applied, suc ceeded in healing the ulcer; but almost immediately afterwards, en ulcer appeareJ face, on his and the buy was dreadfully ' afflicted with running sore s upon hi s neck and body ; the discharge' . of matter was so great, that we were obliged daily to change his linen. The Physicians and Surgeons In the neighbourhood were applied to, but their skill was in vain; several other remedies we resorted to, proved equally ineffectual, and the sufferer continued a poor and miserable object, almost bent double fur nearly Twenty Years. At this time I heard of the virtues of your Inestimable Medicine. and after taking six bottles (which I purchased of Mr. Sutton, of Nottingham), an amendment began to take place, and perseverance in caches four bottles more, effected a perfect cure. It is now six years since this was accomplished, for which I re turn you my unfeigned thanks, and wish you to make It public, fur the benefit of those who may be similarly afflicted. am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant, JOHN FOU LK ES.

Thy house, and (in the cup of lite That homy-drop) thy pleasing wife! HAPPINESS, " the gay to-morrow of the mind," is insured by marriage; " the s rictest tie of perpetoal Friend ship," is a gift from Heaven, cementing pleasure with reason, by which, says Johnson, " we approach in some degree of association with celestial intelligence." Previous, however, to entering into this hallowed obligation, it becomes an Imperative duty, sot only to regulate the passions, but socialise the grosser nature from those impurities which the free dons of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless instarces which, whik they excite the commiseration of the be bolder, should also impress hint with the fear of self-reproach. Luxurious habits will efferninize the body—a residence in •the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially dues the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the na tural dignity into a state of inanition, tram whence the agonized, sufferer more than doubts the chance of relet.

FRENCH PAPERS. .7ROII THE SIESSAGeII DES CHAMBRES, DEC. 31. PARIS, DK. 31. The Nurentterg Ccatrier of Peace and War contains a letter from Bucharest of an uld date, for it is of the Ist of December, but it gives some particulars not be fore published— I. There are fresh symptoms of the pla., u• in the hos pitals of Dudeschi ; there are 32 perious'attacked with •t, and 50 o:hers suspected. " a:veral p.rsons are to be called to an account for neglect or infidelity in their offices. Among them are four persons high in rank in the Treasufy, who, it is said, will have to give an account of a deficit of 7.000,000 ref piastres. According to the measures that ate going to be taken, it appears to be intended to invest Giurgevo and Fouroul, all sorts of ammunition being collected be fore these fortresses; and the greater part of the in. fantry which has returned from Shwa also marches in that directioo, and to Krajova; whereas, with the exception of 1,000 sick, there remain but a few troops las Kalarasch. It is also thought that a Russian corps will proceed against Savia, by way of Krajova and Hiram, to attack the Turks in diErent points, and thus divide their force." Letters from Odessa, of the 11th of December, say that nothing important had taken place at Varna. The citadel and the town were amply supplied with f•rovi sions and atnmunition. The (it and Vizier remains in active at Aidos, and his troops refuse to make a winter campaign. Omer Paella is at Paravadi. The inaction of the Turks is =muted for by the inclemency of the season ; this inaction is certsin, and all the other reports are without foundation. The Balkan is covered with snow, as well as its renders all military operations impossible. Vessels laden with provisions continue to sail from Odessa fur Varna.

PERUVIAN BANDITTI. The vicinity of the capital is occasionally infested by banditti, carryiug on operations in open day with so much system, that all who chance to travel at that time ate sure to be relieved of their valuables. Th. se robbers I are composed chiefly of free mulattoes, and others of a mixed race. The evil has existed from time iminemo rial, and is of purely Spaoish origin, for Indian honesty. in retired villages, is so great, that when the family for a time leaves its cage like hut, the latchless wicket is left ajar, a brush is placed at the sill. and it would be worse than sacrilege for any one to cross the thres hold under any pretence. It has happened, that the brigands, sell armed and well mounted, have assem bled at distant and uncertain periods, within a mile of Callao. Tney direct their course towards Lima, stop all whom they meet, and having very civilly light coed them of their purses, oblige the robded t laccompan ! the robbers until all arrive near to the city gate, when the bandits disperse. Some ride boldly in.o the town, many conceal themselves amongst wild cares; whilst others cut across the country, and recut n quietly to their nomes to enjoy the spoil, or follow other occupations. The banditti, on such extraordinary re-unions, amount to twenty or thirty in number, and it has happened that they have had above twenty cart i ages, besi,les per sons dismounted, in their train, regularly brought up by a rear-guard, whilst the advanced scouts pushed 4u to secure fresh booty. They seldom commit murder; and whenever it is possib!e, they avoid robbing offi4its of the army, or civilians in the employment ot Govein ment. Neither do they, witen acting in smaller patties, attack persons of note. Foreigners and strangers are in general their usual victims. In 1822, two Ciiilenol Gentlemen, named Errazuris and Maras, sere stopped. Errazaris told the chief bandit that the horse on which he rode was a borrowed one belonging to an officer of the army, and so valuable that he could not replace it. He therefore entreated that the animal alight not be taken. Toe robber answered, g. We cannot give it up at present, as good horses are exactly what we are most in need of, being on the eve of a distant taut .ion; but say where you live, and the horse shall be se turned." A few mornings alter it was found in the court of the house of Donna liosita Co, tes (a descend- ant of the celebrated Cortes),where Errazuris had taken lip his residence. The oilier Gentleman, from whom I they took a tow thousand dollars, perceiving that the ieque,t of his friend was so readily complied with, told ' the robbers that he had no mote money than what they had taken, and begged them to return him enough to subsist upon in Callao. They asked him how much he wanted? He answered a few doubloons; upon which the robbers refunded a hundred dollars; and all parties took polite leave of each oth r.—From a MS. by Gen. Miller, in the Ist N of the Ovited Setvice Journal.. BATTLE OF WATERLOO, We hare extricted floes The United service Journal the following account, by an eye.witiless, of Waterloo, before and alter the battle, which ia highly enter tuning Sunday morning was u tiered in by one of the most heedful tvmpests I ever remember. The crashing of launder was followed by the roar of cannon, which as now di,tincey heard from the ramparts, and it is ,ot po.tible to describe the fearful effect of this appal. cut mockery of heaven. I never before felt so torcibly the feebleness of man. The r sin twat tremendous—the k 1 looked lake that of Poussin's picture of the Deluge, snd a heavy black cloud spread. like the wings of• a yonstsons vulture, over Brus•els. The wounded con. in to arrive the whole of Saturday night and Sun ,' sy morning, in a condition which defies description. They appeared to have been dragged for miles through ~ ceans s f mud ; their clothes were torn, their caps and fe .tier s cut to pieces, and their shoes and boots troddeft off. The accounts they brought were vague and dis. heattetring—in fact, we could only ascertain that the Duke r.f Wellington had, late on Saturday, taken up his positi •n at Wa•er:o s, and that these he meant to wait the attack of the Fiends. That this attack had commenced, we needed not to be informed, as the soar of the cannon became every instant more distinct, till we even fancied that it shook the town. The wounded represented the field of battle as a perfect quagmire, and their appearance testified the truth of their asser. tionc. About two o'clock a fresh alarm was excited by the horses, ,which bad been put in requisition to draw the baggage waggons, being suddenly galloped through the town. We fancied this a proof of defeat; but the fact was simply thus—the peasants from whom the horses had been taken, finding the drivers of the waggons absent from their posts, seized the opporta• nity to cut the traces, and gallop off with their cattle. As this explanation, however, was not given till the following day, we thought that all was over; the few British adherents who had remained were io despair, and tai coloured cockades were suspended from every house. Even I, for the first time, list all courage, arid my only consolation was the jiry of Annette. I. Eng. land cannot be much injured by the loss of a single battle," thought I; " and, as for me. it is of little con sequence whether I am a prisoner on parole, or at mere wanderer at pleasure. I may easily resign myself to my fate; but this poor girl would break her heart if she lost her lover, for he is everything to hes." In this manner I reasoned ; but in spite of toy affected phi's:). sophy. I could not divest myself cf all natural feeling ; and when about six o'clock we heard that the French had given way, and that the Prussians had eluded Grouche, and were rapidly advancing to the field, I quite forgot poor Annette, and thanktd Goo aids all my heart. A: eight o'clock there was n% longer any doubt r f our -succest, for a battalion of troops marched into the town, and brought intellionce that the Duke of Wellington had gained a complete victory, and that the French were flying, closely pursued by tee Pt ussians. Sunday night was employed in enthusiastic rejoicing. Tire tri.canuted cockades hrd all disappeared, and the British cohorts were hoisted f oas every window. The great bell of St.Gudule tolled to announce the event to •he surrounJing neighbourhood ; and sonic f the E•sgi who had only hidden themselves, v inured to re-aph•ear. The only alloy to the universal rapture which prevailed was the number of the victualed ; the houses were in - suffici.nt to contain half; and the churches and public buildings were littered down with straw tor their recep. tion. The body of the Duke of Bronswick, who fell at Qoatre Bras, was brought in on Saturday, and taken to the quarters he had occupied near the Chateau de Luken. I was powerfully affected when I saw t' e corpse of one whom I had so lately marked as bloom. ing with youth and health ; but my eyes soon became accustomed to horrors. On Monday morning, June 19th, I hastened to the field of battle; I wts compelled to gb through the f lest de Soigne:, for the road was so completely choked up as to be impassable; and I had not proceeded far before I stumbled over the dead body of a Frenchman. which was If ing on its face among t the gra.s. l'he corpse was so frightfully disfigured, and so sweated ssith mud and• gore, that I felt horror-struck; but when, on advancing a little father, I saw hundreds, and in less than an hoer thousands f slain, I !mind my pity for individuals merge in the geee►al mass, and that the more I saw the less I felt ; so true it is that habit reconciles every thing.
