The experience of wady a century has proved this medicine to be the most innocent and dreams/ alterative.. It corrects and purifies the blood; and those who are afflicted with Scrofula, Leprosy, Scurvy, and many of those melancholy diseases arising front issposity of the blood aiid •jelses; those who suffa from diseased Liver, and for tisedissipatioos and in: discretion* of their youth, or whose constitutions are broke* down{ and debilitated by mercurial, aotimonial, or arsenic mop dicines, should submit to a regular coarse of the VEGETABLE SYRUP, The effects of this medicine are such as not to interrupt tidier business or pleasure; it operates on the animal juices and re quires only the common restraint of moderation in diet. It is dissolved in the chyle of the stomach, is conveyed by the attn. latiug fluids, and . cocrects their tendency to all those diseases which originate in vitiated blood. It is a safe, though a power. ful substitute for mercury, and removes those evils which an unsuccessful use of that mineral occasions. It is prepared and adminisseeed in Berner's.etreet, under Mr. Canharn's immediate direction', where it is sold at 13$. a bottle ; it Is also sold at Ms. Atkinson's, 196, Bishopsgate-street With. out; and by Mr. Canbacit's other Agents in London ; and in every considerable Town in the United Kingdom; and the Con. centrated, for warm Climates, by his deputed Agents in the East Indies, iris.

IT was the Remark of the great Dr. Sydenham, that acute diseases are the pumslunent of Hume; bit that chronic ones aro inflicted by ourselves. The consequence of a prevailing malady proclaims too feelingly to the sufferers this unwelcome truth. Vhat situation can be so pitiable where the mind glows with passion which the infirmities of body can not indulge?—Where indiscretion, or maltreatment have pro. duced the premature debility of ago in the sexnal organs, and where the bloom and vigour of manhood is no longer alive to its natural youthful fire ? To sods Messrs. COOPER and Co. Air every consolation, and the promise of a certain, safe, and per . manent Cure, conducted with the delicate secrecy it requires, and speedily renovating the lost energies. Nor are their sufferings leis severe from another complaint.— Srucitnut occasions , a total derangement of the urinary system;' the nights aye harassed by pain, and the day by fruitless efforts to gain relief. Here a regulated system, in the hands of science- And skill, overcomes every difficulty, and rouses the powers •of the constitution to act for itself; in the success of this principle Messrs. Cooper and Co. have never failed, and Stricture is a complaint ahvays under their controuL Messrs. COOPER and Co. are consulted daily .at Charlotte House, Great Charlotte-street, Blackfriars-road, and 15, Wood stock-street, Bond -street; where Letters from the Country, containing an enclosure, and a correct statement of their Case,. will be immediately attended to, and Advice aid jldedieines sent to all parts of the World. , rr Mechanics have Advice Grids, at, Claaricife :Rou e , every Evening from Si: till Eight.-and on -6unday-Fornings until Twelve o'cloek.-- Private poors areach liourcf: DMUS et *coif ltalfr Holt. - Thy house, and (in the cup of life, • - That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife: • - - SOCRATES, by his dis Course od.Marriage, so en raptured his auditors:with tie subject,. ttst tfre 'married men flew to their wkes, and.tht bachelbrkhasteted to be wedded; and " The Spectator" haysflirnsed, that the word " wife" is the mat agreeable and delightfulnanieln nature. The sacred'institutiofl, thin:* orniarriage s •compasees the de sideratum of our enjoyMefiiv teeming 'hot only with happiness on earth, but disposbg the ; !goal-itself to harmonise with bliss hereafter. Previous, however, to entering into this-hallowed - obligation, it becomes an impera t ive duty, not only to regulate the panics*, but to cleanse the grosser nature foam those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of those hapless instances, which, while they excite -the commiseradmi of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self reproach. Luxurious habits will effendnise the body—a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the ago nised sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To ail such, then, we address ourselves, offering hope--enerpy—mus- ; nor will our advances appear teation - the cular strength-4 able, sanctioned __ as they are by , multiplied proof , twenty yean successful experience. The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath--for the female habit is often constitutionally weak-- yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic Intrusion, as well as in every re laxation of the generative economy; we pledge our ability to cure speedily, and with effect. Earnestly solicitous to expel the unfeeling exopyric from the position so pr.-sumptuously taken up, we deviate from general principles with less hesitance ; and confident in our own honourable integrity as Members or the College of Surgeons, we rtle4 the suffetlng community of either I I sex ( e..p:cially those entering into matrimonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance Is given for personal con sultation; and letters from the country re immediately an swered ; these must contain a remittance for Advice and eine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, hew ever distant.

TILE QUEEN. • • . • • • The following is her Maserry's Answer to the Address room the Female Inhabitants of Nottingham: ItsheOld be deficient in sensibility if / had not left the warmest gratitude, and more-than ordinary delights Warn I re-, calved from the Female Inhabitants of the town of Nottingham and Its vicinity, an Address, which I. remarkable for the ami able spirit which it breathes, and for the fervour of attachment to my person and rigbts which it displays. lam proud of-being the Queen of *omen of sock generous sentiments; and Ilin happy to remark, that such sentiments indicate an increased add' inavosing cultivatinn of the female mind. " To be conscious that the hearts of so large a portion et my own sex are vibrating frith ethotlons of affection for Ms Ma *lfs &IQ Comical, that they are sympathising with her sor rows, and deprecating her wrongs, and that her happiness is the object of thelepliss tOpplications, cannot but awaken in my breast the most pleasurable sensations. The sable spirit of de votedness to the fair fame, to the lawful rights, and to the gene ral interests of a persecuted Queen, which animates the female jahabitants of Nottingham, is, I trust, diffused through a Large majority of their countrywomen. They will consider.the honour of her Majesty as reflected upon themselves—they wilt best know how totbppreciate the vexation by which I have been ?aniseed, the ganders by which I have bag assailed, and the sidigaidev by which I have been oppressed. " With the most gentle delicacy, the Female labablinatts etU the Town of Nottingham and its vicinity, have toadied those springs of grief lu my heart which will ever continue painfully to vibrate at the recollection of the near and dear trlatives of whom I have been bereaved, *and isartienlarly of that departed Saint in whose talents, and whose virtues, the women have lost a model of the most estimable ncellettee. and the Nation in ge rml a ftiture Sovereign, under whosefostering care that liberty *maid have flourished which gives happiness to the People and security to the Throne." . • Lord DVSCASSON ou Thursday waited on her MAJESTY, with an Address from the Town of Wake field and its "vicinity, to- which her IWAsawry was pleased to retain the following most gracioosAnswer: " I reoeive with heartfelt satisfaction tats loyal and Wee 6tionate Address from his Majesty's subjects, inhabitants of the tomPti of Wakefield and its vicinity. Their sentiments of con. gratulation on my accession to the high dignity of Queen of these realms, are a proof that their minds have n o t b ee n u nd u ly i n . iluenced by the ilagitiosts calumnies of my persecutors; and I am at the Ante time feelingly alive to their expressions of kind con ' dolence upon the melancholy losses of those near and dear rein ,dives which I experienced while upon the Continent. " I am sensible of the Indignities with "Alas I have been as. sailed, not go much because they are disrespectful to myself, as because they are insulting to the nation—for the nation has been insulted in the late outrages upon the character of its lawful Queen. Though lam attacked with that malice that hesitates at no falsehoods, and by an assumption of power which seems to spurn all limitation, I feel a cheering conSdence at present of support, and of remittal triumph, in the affections of the people. " I have been accused of appealing to popular clamour; but I appeal to nothing but to the good sense and good feeling —to the reason, the morality, and the patriotism of the most en• tightened and most respectable portion of the community. If I am condemned without *dee, and" deeltwased @gaunt all law, the liberties of every individual will receive a fuel stab; and the character of the highest Judicature will be blasted to the latest posterity. " My own personal welfare is at tittle niessant, but I do feel as a cilean far the raliketOilfses, which is deeply implicated:in the shunpike of mylialmod dens. " The .power whki the Hoeft of. Lords are assuming, fir their &1t of Pains and Phoaltles, not only oTdivordng his Ma jesty's Royal Consort, but of dethroning their Wefts! Queen, may prove in the reaulx productive of an aged misery in the nation.. The child that is nos/ at the breast may live to rue its consequences. " The of rectitude, of which no BM of Pains can ever deprive me, wiD support me through all trials ; and even though the forceof my enemies should in the end prove commensurate with their malignity, the people shall clever have occasion to reproach me with neglecting their hap piness, with betraying their rights, or with relinquishing for one moment the patriotic magnanimity of the Queen." THE MILAN COMMISSION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIME Sta—lt appeal* by the result of Lord Easztzrz's Motion, on Friday, the 14th'instant, that Ministers still adhere to precedent, while it is in their favour,' howevet•ready they are to depatt from it when it is against thkpi. If it be ratio% that in trooblesonse times great men make pre - eedents, and little men follow . thens, in what class ate we toplace Ministers who?do.botb ? To solve tbis problem, let us SYJIMiIIe Them for a moment in their double character of precedent-makers and precedent4ol - and see bow. far their argument, which is thiaame in both cases, namely, substantial justice, bears them out. ' • The Milan Commission is adreitted to he without precedent let us then see how far the professed wish of Ministers, subsea's. thi justice, is likely to bit obtained thereby in the Queen's case; for favour or Indulgence to her sex, or rank, or unprotected si tuation, is quite out of the questi o n , since it has been roundly declared In the Lords that no difference ought to be made be tweet' her Majesty and the meanest subject. Be it so then, and let us try the sipcerity of Ministers by their own touchstone, end see whedser with re to substan tial justice, Ministers 'have in fact made say between her Majesty and the meanest subject by the course they have already adopted. In the first place, in the case of Meanest subject, this as. lan Commission could never have issued. We all know that a Commission to examine witnesses abroad can only issue from a Court of competent jurisdiction to try the question between the parties. Was this the Queen's case ? Or who issued the Commission, or minted the Commissioner, if not the prosecutor or accuser himself ? Again, in a legal Commission there moat be a question already pending before the Court, and the party prayinf the Commission must have made oat a prima facie case, and joined issue on it with the opposite party previously to this application. • Was this the• queen's case ? Legal notice is again given to the opposite party,of this appli cation, and he is required to join in naming the foreign Com missioners, and entitled to have an equal number of his own choice inserted in the list, in order to protect him in the exa mination of the foreign witnesses, and the taking of their depositions. - - Was this the Queen's case 1' When the Commission I; returned with the depositions sealed up to the Cant from whence is issued, no copinsare out of the depositions to one party and withheld from the other; but the effect of the order fur pubis publication - is to make. both parties equal in this respect. • Was this the Queens talc? So much then (omitting other points) for the substantial jus tice of the Ministers towards the Queen in their departure from precedent, la their character of precedent-makers. Now, let us shortly see whether she is more likely to obtain substantial justice by their sticking to precedent in their other character of precedent-followers, or precedent-hunters, and their refusal to deviate from it in the slightest degree when the letter of the law is in their favour. , • On Friday, the 11th instant, Ministers refused the Queen that list of wirelesses, so which, under the equity of the statute of Willtun 111. as applied to her cafe, she was clearly tinkled, _ . • . . by MOND thetelieles not been, and could not be, teciudeally, guilty el Mishits:urn; and therefore, as they cannot legally est off her !mil, they will sot safer her to defend, by the as aistance of this MUM, *hilt prist be much dearer to her, mid every high-minded wontan-felfer honour, her reputation, and her Crown., and they very coolly introduce a Bill to deprive her of all these, in the shape, of a EU of Pains and Penalties, as , a less punlaidaent, and thereby deprive her of the benefit of this Act. But can any honourable or high-minded woman consider It for a ineenent in this light? Is the character of the Queen or her Thaw of less consequence to us, or to her, than her head? And would she not, as I am persuaded she vrtrald, with the country, prefer the trial for High Treason, with the additional security which its peculiar laws afford to justice, to the present anomalous mode of proceeding, by which she must be tried twine, and convicted, before she can enter upon her defence? The object, I conceive, of the statute of William, in giving the list .of witnesses, and, in fact, the precaution observed in all the statutes of Treason, seems to be this--that as Treason is the highest crime known to the law, and the prosecutor is ge nerally the most formidable per.o.t in the country, that out iff tenderness to the party accused, these iules were adopted, and to prevent the subornation of witnesses no the part of the Crown, *hick the lave has cleniy cc.nternplaa d, it 144. ds the party the knowledge of them before trial by this statute. If the charges against the Qteen, and the course adopted at proceeding by a lift: of Pains .se_d Penalties Instead of Impeach ment, do ant bring her technically within the protection of the statue of Wiltiaxn, they at least bring her morallyvrithin it, as to the effect of a Bill of Pains and Penalties; or iso very near it, that, in favour of substantial-justice, one would thieile r eAt Owe whO could make so great a stride to Mike, might very wetly stretch their coneeleoces to make a precede* in this date's they cannot find one. • But the effect of refusing the Queen the IR/hatwitnesies Will, on a very slight consideration, be seen to be attended with a manifest hardship to her, if not injustice. In the first place, it is nothing to say that she will be entitled to a delay after the examinations In chief have been taken against her, to produce witnesses to support her cross-examina tion, and to impeach the witnesses on the part of the accuser. not let me ask, is it substantial justice to examine these persons in chief against her, and deny her the memos of -objecting to their cuineetency or credibility upon a hair dire, and perhaps prevent their evidence ping to the Jury, which she might other-- Wise have been ehabled to do, had Let Erskine's motion been adopted ? Is it, again, substantial jastice that, after the Jury haaheard all the eridenee again s t hers and In chief, that they shOtdd dis perse themselves all over the eountry,for perhaps six weeks or two months before the Queen can collect her Witness*, hitli the impression of this evidence against her rankling In their minds ? And how many weopfe are there besides a Chancellor or a Judge, who can reduce themselves to such abstract beings as to feel no unfavourable impressions from evidence given at such an interval from the reply and defence? h is nothing to say that the depositions taken on the Contiuent cannot be read on the trial, inn the witnesses must be examined de limo and twit voce; and cross-examined, when the cross-examination in the Queen's cue cannot follow, as It does in ordinary cafes close upon the heels of the other, and before the party leaves thebox, In her case *hat is to become of the witnesses during the inter val betWern their examination and cross-examination? Suppose a material one dies in the meantime, and before the Queen can prove him guilty of perjury: " Is this substantial justice? The very taking of the depositions in ItalY,and piying the witnesses for their attendance, Was. a Cruel measure ; for it plant the Queen in dds dilemma —tint; whether true or false, the whams*, to preserve their own eansistency, most repeat the Mae evidence on the trkl. If true, it is natural they should do so 6 if false, they Must, by olsebe of their engagement : so that the only clumee, of detect* them by a mooi.eratnination or pro dilation of other witneites at the theta, aid to affect their-come peessey or eery, blest to the Qtteeti by the rejection of the motion ea 'filreby last. I have observed, Mr. Edlfilr,in the course of my employment • in a foreign Court of Justice, a pristine which prevailed, of parties who were going to trW procurini from their friends or witnesses, private certificates of the facts in cpsestion," given no* der tender of oath, but which oath was not always required by the Court. However, I never knew an instance When the *Mb was called for of the party effusing to make it, or • i , substance from hit certificate; indeed, by his certificate he precluded himself, which is the miechief, as the witnesses %ain't the Queen have by their depositions. . But it seems that great fault has been found with the Stand* of William, as affording too much facility of defence to the at* cused, and imposing a hardship on the prosecutor ht ditelltearise any witness on his part not included in the list. The Wow els e jection was very properly removed by the wording of Lord grskine's motion, by which fresh eyidenee was to be Awed in this case; but It is redact a curious Coincidence, that even in itt Italian Court of Justice, without any reference to the Statute of William,-or the crime of treason, the party focused is, in every criminal case, entitled,.. eight days before trial, to a li st at the Witnesses, an d CopieSof the papers or proofs.

As Lord Lauderdale recommended, on Monday last, the study of the Italian language to the Lords, for the purpose of enabling them to do justice to his heather, it Would be as well perhaps for. their Lordships to commence with the study of the above passage, in ot der to enable them to do justice to rise Queen: however, for the benefit of young beginners, I shall Subjoin a translation : 1 , As soon as the Attorney- Cei.eral has received the piano and framed the indictment, he shall send a copy to the Regis. trans of the Court, signed by him, and serve a legal notice of it on the party accused, with an authentic copy, together with a list of the names of the witnesses and their legal description, as well as of every document or written proof, or evidence; and he shall not be allowed tceexamine any witness whose name is not Inserted in the said list without the special permission of the Court, and under such conditions as it shall think proper to im pose, or to produce at the trial any document or written evi,. dente of which entice has not been duly served on the party accused, as abovementioned." _ _ If there be any truth id the objection to furnishing the Quetta trlth the names of the witnesses and their legal description, frnra Ise circumstance of the difficulty, then this objection goes to de stroy the depositions themselves, toe they are good for nothing is kw tulle = s they are perfectly clear and precise in this respect. . To illustrate this, I will give th: following example, which is the usual judicial farm throughout the Cantinas/ Ist Intl rrogatory. iThat ir your name ? Yd. What is yobr age? 3d. Where were you born? 4th. What Religion do y.sts profess? • sth. What is your profession? 611. Where do you reside ? If the depositions , sf the witnesses against the Queud have not been taken id this way, it is clear that fslini4ters cannot furnish the Queen with such a Its: and description of the witnesses as she Is by law entitled to; and their doficulty is sincere; bet then again it is equally dear that the depositions have net been pro. perly taken ; and by their own acts, or that of their Agent, they have put theinselvka in a Niue in which they cannot render her 'irliat they so much wish to do—substuutial justice. It is one thing to say,. tbattkey know wilts, to•find their atm witnesses--and I dare say they do; but woat I cookod for is this—that, on the face of the depoliffions themselves, this know.. ledge aboultappear—and not elleVrinie 1111 hot suds, or th e Cominissionene pocketbook. . 1 i „ , • stet, SIT, .
