DR. JAMES'S FEVER POWDER AND ANALEPTIC PILLS. riIHE FEVER POWDER is allowed to be the most J. valuable Discovery ever made in the Science of Medicine, and is administered with equal success in Fever, Measles, St. An thony's Fire, Pleurisy, Sore Throat, Rheumatism, acc. When given freely upon the first attack of Fever, it gives decided relief in a few hours, and generally effects a cure. In Colds or Catarrhs, partaking more or less of inflammation, it is found invariably to shorten their duration, and to prevent their terminating in Pubno nary Affections; in Packets, at 2s. 9d. and 245. The ANALEPTIC PILLS, from their influence in exciting the natural secretions, are an excellent Alterative Remedy in Chronic Diseases, Rheumatism, Habitual Febrile and Gouty Af. fections, Indigestion, Bilious and other Complaints of the &o. mach and Bowels. They are mild in their operation—do not re quire the least restraint or confinement to the Patient—and, as a general Family Medicine, they have no superior; in Boxes, at 4s. 6d. and 245. 11*- IL G.

GENTLEMEN —We feel great pleasure in commu nicating to you the following additional instance of the effi cacy of your ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, which are daily in creasing in repute in this town. Elixa Perkes, No. 7, Court 29, Hospital -street, Birmingham, was' afflicted about the end of 1824, with a Scorbutic Eruption, which first strewed itself on ber right elbow, and afterwards spread over the whole of her body to such an alarming extent that she was for six weeks unable to follow her usual occupation, and was considered incurable. After trying va rious remedies, and finding herself only rendered worse, she was advised by her neighbour, Mrs. Wyley, who had been cured some years ago of the same complaint by Dr. Ugnum's Antiscorbutic Drops, to give them a trial, the first small bottle of which afforded ber relief, arid by taking a few more bottles she was entirely cured, since which time she has remained in good health.—We remain, Gentlemen, yours respectfully, 'l. and W.

The last letters from Trieste say, " On the 26th No vember there was a long conference at Patras, between the Captain Pacha, Ibrahim, Redschid Pacha, and Jus suf Pacha, Commander of Patras. The object of this meeting was to arrange a new plan for the military ope rations which by order of the Sultan are to be carried on during the winter. It is affirmed that it was resolved to attack, at the same time, Missolonghi and the other fortresses in the hands of the Greeks. A warm dispute ensued between the Captain Pacha and RedsChid, the latter having declared that in spite of all his efforts, h• had not been able to keep the Albanians,theirChiefs hav ing formally declared that they would not make a win ter campaign, but that if they received their pry punc tually, they would rejoin the Ottoman twiny in the spring. Redschid declared besides, that the movements of several Greek Chiefs were of a nature to castle alarm, because Karaiskaki was master of the coast, and of the right bank of the Achelous ; and Goura, who had lately made himself master of Salona, was marching towards Etolia, to threaten the right flank of the Turkish army in Thessaly, and thus to intercept the communications. At the close of the Council, the Captain Pacha received notice that Miaulis had been reinforced from Hydra, and that the Greek fleet had a free communication with the g trrison of Missolonghi." EAST INDIES. In a Liverpool Paper of Monday, we find the follow. ing summary of the intelligertce received by the Crown, Captain Pender, bringing advice: to the 28th August: The main body of the British troops, under the com mand of Sir A. Campbell, remained in their canton. ments at Prome. No general action between them and the Burmese had then taken place, but the enemy had annoyed our troops incessantly, by making attacks upon them, under cover of woods and jungles in front of our position. A number of persons had fallen ♦ictims to this petty mode of warfare, but disease had carried off a much greater number. The rains had been so heavy, that the whole country was inundated. All was tranquil at Rangoon and Arracan at the date of the last accounts received from those places. A dreadful mortality was raging at Calcutta whin the Crown sailed. The chOlera morbus was carrying off the natives by five hundred a day. The mortality among the Europeans was comparatively trifling.— Several ships from England, with troops, had arrived at Madra - s. It was doubtful, however, whether they would be sent to reinforie the army in the Burmese territory, as, notwithstanding the mortality which had prevailed among the British troops in that country, they were supposed to be still sufficiently strong in number to bring the war to a satisfactory termination. In addition to the above, we extract the following details from the Supplement t• the Calcutta Government Gazette of the 22d August — PRONIE. The period since the cessation Of active operations to the eastward, vn account of the rains, has been produc tive of various reports concernin 4 the views and pre parations of the enemy, many of them curious :And amusing, but none of them sufficiently authentic to be entirely relied on. Ammg other on dits of recent importation from Pegue, 4.000 Burmese had established themselves at Putanagoh, a post not far from Prome. A Burmese who fled to Ava, after the capture of Donabew, states, that the King had particularly ques tioned the Chief Choo Noon.Bo, as to the certainty of the death of the Maha Bundoolah, and the reply was in the affirmative. It was quite impossible, he added, to resist the force of the English either by land or water. Choi-Noon-Bo suggested the expediency of the King himself taking the command of the army, but even then he expected no ether result than that uhich had been so often experienced. Nex-. day the Golden Feet issued orders that the whole of the ingots of silver in his possession should be broken up and formed into ticals. He also directed a general levy to be raised, and that as the men arrived at headquarters, each should receive a present of one bundled ticals, or about nee hunched and forty rupees. During the twenty days the Burmese who gives this information remained at Ave, he thinks that thirty thousand fresh men were collected, about halt the num ber intended to be engaged. Another newsmenger states, that Ava contains a force of sixty thousand men, with six hundred guns of different calibre, and fifty thousand muskets. Whilst at Ave he heard of the cap ture of Arracan by the English, which put the city into great consternation. Namine, the Commander-in-Chief, was anxious to effect a revolution, being weary - of the ruinous measures of the King, and the desolation which the continuance of the war had produced throughout the empire. He therefore represented to his Majesty that there was a rock named Kalandoun, distant from Ave about 18 miles, to which, if he proceeded alone, and was able to break any part of it, his .success against the English would be ensured. But superstitious as the Court is, the favourites, f his Majesty suspected it to be a trick contrived by Namine to get the Golden Feet into a solitary place for the purpose of destroying him, and, after seising the reins of Government, entering into terms with the English at Prome. Upon this view of the case, the Chief, Namine, had been trodden to death under an elephant, by order of the King.— And it was further said, that his Majesty wished to ap point the Prince of Sarrawaddy his successor, as Com mander in-Chief, but was dissuaded from it by one of the women of his Palace. Main-Meean•Bo, the King's half brother, was then nominated to the situation, with 60,000 men at his disposal, or rather 66,666, there being something magical in the number. Among them are said to be three female Shaum Chiefs, with 2,000 followers, whose powers are so prodigious, that by holding up a finger on the firing of st . cannon, the ball is turned to water ! Moon-Sho-Az , ,r was in confinement at Ava, and Laushego, the Sliahbunder of Rangoon, still in irons. The General Wood, from IL ingoon, the 3d August, and the Penan 4 Merchant, from the same port, on the 7th, are working up below Kedgeree. No dispa.ches have yet reached town. Madras Papers of the 9th came in to-day. The Hon. Company's ship Minerva has arrive-1 there, but no mention is yet made of the Princess Chsrlotteof Wales. SOUTH AMERICA. =TRACT FROM THE ARGOS OF BMWS ATMS, AUG. 31. Sunday, the 28th instant, John M. Forbes, Esq. our ancient and good friend, was presented to his Ex cellency the Govern a., as Charge d'Affaires of the United States sear this Government. His Excellency, attended by the Inspector General, the Chiefs of the garrison, and the President of the Camara, received him in the saloon. Aftet th e Minister of Fo r eig n Re lations had introduced and presented him, Mr. Forbes pronounced the following address: u MOST EXCELLENT Silt—Five years ago, in the darkest moment of an almost helpless anarchy, I task the honour te present myself in this Hall as the organ of the deep interest which has ever been taken b., the people of the United States, in the success of the patriot cause of Spanish America, throughout all its fortunes and its strugglei. I cannot express, Sir, the satisfaction I now feel, when, by order, and in the name of my Government, I come to repeat to you, in the midst of a regenerated and happy country, the assur ances of a constant and most lively sympathy in every thing which touches the honour or prosperity of the United Provinces of La Plata. " The Government of the United States has been the first to assume the responsibility, and to risk the conse quences, of acknowledging the new Governments formed out of Spanish America; for this priority of movement on their part, which has tensed to accelerate similar acts on the part of other Governments, and to disconcert, and, at least, to postpone those of a different character, the United States have asked nothing, nee do they with anything but a frank and friendly inter- Course, founded on principles of just and enlightened reciprocity. At an early period, subsequent to 'that . great measure, the late President of th e U n it e d S tates . in a message to Congress, in December, 1823, as serted two very important principles of law, in the rela tions between Europe and America. The fi rst is, that the American Continents are not henceforth to be con sidered as subjects for future colonization for any European Powers. This declaration implies no disposi tion to disturb the now existing system of colonial pos. sessions, but the principle is directed against the e.t.a blishment of any new European Colonies on this Cenci.. nent. T e other principle asserted in this message is,that whilst theUtited States do not desirC to interfere with the system of the Allied Powers in Europe, they would re gard as dangerous to their owsi peace and safety any attempt to extend that syst , :m to any part of this hemi sphere. In the maintenance of these principles, all the Independent Governments of America have a strong interest, and it is hoped that the Government of Buenos Ayres, far from disavowing, will feel the utility and ex pediency of assming them on all proper occasions. 44 Both the principles, solemnly declared in tiro face of the world, were laid down alter much and anxious deli:relation on the part of the late Cabinet of Washington, and I a:n in.tructed to say, the present President, who was one oh that Cabinet, continues to coincide in that declaration. " TltePresident has been much gratified by the Tune: al 'hobours decreed by your Excellency to the late Minister of the United States, Air. Rodney, and the respect subsequently strewn to his memory; and I am charged to express his grateful sense of the friendly and delicate attentions manifested on that melancholy occasion. " The Government of the United States is sincerely desirous. Sir, w cultivate and tn iintain the most friendly relations with the Provinces of the La Plata ; and I am instructed to keep constantly in view, and to seize every fit occasion to give effect to this friendly policy. I beg leay.., mo t respectfully, further to assure your Excellency, that this ever will be, as it ever has been, among the warmest imputes of my own heart." His Excellency the Governor replied in the follow ing words ; " The Government charged with the national exe cutive powers has heard, with the greatest pleasure and satisfaction, the benevolent sentiments which the Go vernment of our good friend, the Republic of the United States, has deigned to transmit through the organ of their Charge d'Affaires. The United Provinces of the River La Plata recol lect always with pleasure the act of justice which the Republic of the United Sums has done in acknowledging the independence of this country, and this sentiment is always gaining new strength, as well by the cultivation of our relations, as by the identity of the principles which govern both Republics. " The Government of the United Provinces knows the importance of the two great principles which the Hon. Pre s ident of the United States has laid down in his Message to Congress; and, convinced of the utility of their adoption 14011 the States of the Continent, will consider it an honourable duty to second them ; and, to that end, to avail itself of every opportunity which may present. " It is particularly sa!isfactory to this Government, that the Hon. President of the United States has named his Charge d'Affaires in the respectable person of Mr. Forbes, whox sentiments in favour of the independence and prosperity of this Republic, manifested constantly and in all circumstances, have won the love and general goodt.ill of the citizens of this country." The following are a few additional paragraphs from these papers : " BarAntoss, Decsuseis 6. Extract of a letter from an American to his !mud in Baltimore, dated Buenos ♦yres, Sept. 22: " The great question between the Provinces and Brazil, about the Banda- Oriental, remains involved in the uncertainty of diplomatic discussion, in which, how ever, great hopes were indulged in the mediation of Sir Charles Stuart, now at Rio.—But these hopes have now nearly disapi eared, since it is ascertained that the treaty between King John and his son Pedro, nego ciated by the med•atioir of Sir Charles at Lisbon, is a complete mockery of the independence assumed by the latter. In consequence of which, Sir Charles's chief negotiation has entirely failed, and he is now remaining at Rio in a private character, waiting the result of further explanations, ping on through special messen. y ,~ 11$ i~r Itpl `i I 4.'
