Isaac Swainsou, by his niece, Mrs. Margaret Csnbam, alone, to whom he bequeathed it. Above all the medicines of this denomination, the VEGETABLE SYRUP of DE VELNOS has obtained a distinction which its efficacy alone ma support. It corrects and purifies the blood; and, to persons who are afflicted with scrofula, leprosy, scurvy, and many of those melancholy diseases, arising from impurity of the blood and juices; to those also who suffer from diseased liver, or from the indiscretions of their youth, or whose constitutions are broken down by mercurial, antimonial, or arsenic medicines, a course of the Vegetable Syrup is particulzirly recommended. It not only dissipates glandular tumors, eruptions, and ulcers, whatever be their nature, but those debilities, consumptions, and feminine obstructions, which are too often attended v ith fatal consequences. The effect of this medicine is such, as not to interrupt either business or pleasure, and requires only common moderation in diet. The Genuine Syrup of De Velnos is prepared and sold by Mrs. Canbam, late Miss Swainson, at 52, Berners-street, at 13s. a bottle. By her appointment, it may be had at Mr. Beales's, 196, Bishopsgste-street Without; at Butler's, Chemists, Cheapside, corner of St. l'aul's ; 73, Princes -street, Edinburgh ; and 51, Sackville street, Dublin; at Mr. rtooe's, High-street, Stamford ; at most of the respectable Medicine Venders in London, and at her Agents in every considerable town in the United Kingdom.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR. PARIS, (►cT. 24. Sus, To the stranger merely visiting Paris, for the purpose of par, taking of its gaieties, of seeing the numerous collections of fine arts with which it abounds, or of entering into its talented and fashionable circles, it seems to have very small claims to eminence as a commercial city. He only frequents the Court end, or its western extremity, the Chaussee d•Antin, its northern, or perhaps the gloomy Fauxbourg St. Germain, where the massive hotels of the ancient Noblesse, are emblematic of the solemn pomposity, which reigns within. As well might the stranger in our overgrown metropolis, form his judgment by the gay throng of St. James's and Regent streets, of the ponderous loads and mercantile activity of the city. The fact is, that Paris, considering its situation carries on a considerable portion of business in supplying other countries, with the luxuries and elegancies of life. Madrid and the whole of the Italian cities, are her customers for silks, laces, feathers, and jewellery, while Petersburgh and the German cities depend upon her, for the lighter articles, which both male and female vanity deem requisites of existence. Her exports of these have been gradually en. creasing, since the prudence of her government has striven to check the mania for conquest and military glory, which is innate in the breast of a Frenchman. Within some few years past, she has however taken a mighty stride in the cotton manufactory, and in other establishments. which produce not only the conveniences, but what, by the habits of society, have become the necessaries of life. Her travellers are to be found at every inn upon the continent, and samples are handed about in towns remote from France, which never had dreamed of looking to her markets to fill their stores. I t must also be observed, that since the independence of the South American kingdoms, they have pushed their mercantile speculations Into that quarter of the globe ; and that many articles, the production of the Southern Provinces, are peculiarly relished by the Spanish Ame ricans. Their climate requires dress more for ornament and decency rather than from cold. The light cloths, the silks and the jewellery of France, here find a most favourable and increasing vent. Her wines, oils, and preserved fruits have become indispensable to the descendants of the Spaniards. They are similar to the production. of the fertile valleys of Spain, whose distracted government, and want of enterprise, have allowed this valuable trade to pass from her hands. French stores, as they are called, flourish exceedingly in Mexico, and a regular assort ment of goods arrives monthly at that place. With the island of Cuba, particularly the windward part of it, France has very extensive mercan tile connections. The neighbourhood of "it. Jago, now flourishes an im mune quantity of sugar. Puerto-es-condido, or Cumberland Harbour , thirty years ago, was in the hands of nature alone. French vessels , under Spanish oloure, have furnished it, in contravention of the abo lition, with many thousand slaves, and a widely extended and extremely fertile district, now sends to Havre, Names, and Bordeaux, cloyed sugars to an immense amount. So much has the foreign commerce of France increased, that within a few months only, Government has appointed a regular packet for the conveyance of letters, which sails monthly, and after calling at Martinique, and Guadeloupe, pro ceeds to St. Domingo, leaves • mail at St. Jago de Cuba and at the Havannah, and thence proceeds to Vera Cruz, the port of the city Mexico. She returns with the mails and fresh orders, and from Vera I Crux brings a valuable freight of dollars and cochineal. Some fele years since this arrangement would not have paid the expenses. It must also be observed that Paris as the metropolis of a kingdom so populous as France, must naturally carry on an immense business in supplying its wants. Cobbett calls London " The Wen," meaning that it absorbs and draws to its own nourishment, all particles in Great Britain. This term is much more applicable to Paris, which from its cented situation receives the corn and wool of the northern department, and also the wutes, and oils of the grape, and olive bearing provinces ; she exchanges one with the other, and reaps the advantage of the negotiation. Thou sands of travellers (Commis Marchands) are dispersed over the pro vinces, buying the crops of every cultivator of the soil. In many in stances tusking him advances upon his forthcoming harvest, whether it be of northern or southern production. The expected crop is hypothe cated for the payment of throe advances, and is compelled, bj the terms of the agreement, to he sent for sale to Paris, where the merchant derives his commission and interest upon the sale. The capital employed in this manner is very t.rgc, and produces a very beneficial return. I trust I have now said enough to convince your readers, that the commerce of France, although stoking into nothing when comp are d with that of England, has very much recessed of late years, and will still encrease, if not interfered with by speculative men That present Government has addressed a circular to the envoys of the dif ferent South American States, inviti n gthem to send Ambassadors, as suring them of recognition, and proposing a commercial treaty. This could not have happened, had a Bourbon still filled the throne. Family pride would not have permitted one of the dynasty to become li to the dismemberment o f th e d om i n i ons lot anot h er , a l t h oug h p= Upon a different throne. Tie embarrassments which have been BO se vere', felt, hive no/ arisen from any dafalcation in foreign trade. With but few , exceptions, the French merchant does safer business than his mightier brother In England. His investments are much smaller, tuld he does not ovestock the market. ComporoOvoly speakJng, but little credit is given, and each voyage is y dup et its conclusion. He does not consign large cargoes to a haw, but sends out • supercargo, whe having a discretionary power, makes a trading voy. age, and in general a en:Tearful one. 1 wiU conclude this subject in my MIR.
