The whole Frame is composed of Wrough.iron Tubes, cased with Brass, which render it remarkably light and portable; It cannot rust or harbour vermin, by its ingenious and simple construction (being in one piece); it will not get out of repair, and is made ready fur use in one minute; it will pack with the Curtains and Bedding in the small space of Nine Inches. To MILITARY OFFICERS joining their Regiments abroad, and the EAST and %VEST INDIES, it is particularly recommended, fitted up with the Patent Mosquito Net Curtains. To INVALIDS, travelling for health in warm climates, it forms an invaluable appendage; it will enable -them to enjoy that necessary repose, which cannot be obtained in the dirty Beds of the Country•.

Being perfectly portable, it may be used in any situation—its universal utility must therefore be un deniable for-Domestic purposes; in Shops, Warehouses, Coach Offices, Market Houses, Barns; onWharfs; at Races and Fairs; for Cattle, Cunt, Hay, Wool, &c. ; or for Loading heavy Arti cles, it may be attached to the chain of a crane, and shew the Weight at the time of craning ; it may be also made with a chair to weigh Persons. From its extreme simplicity, it is scarcely possible to be inaccurate ; yet, if it ever should be so, there is an adjusting Screw which will momentarily correct it. H.

DR. JAMES'S POWDER Is acknowl"dged to be the gteatest discovery in Medicine during the last Century. In cases of Fever it will often effect a cure in a few hours, especially when freely given and at the outset of the disease. It is administered with equal success in all attacks of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, Sore Threat, Pleurisy, and Ithepmatism ;-but as Colds and Catarrhs partake more or less of inflammatory symptoms, this Powder is pecu liarly efficacious in cutting short their duration.; which however harmless they may be thought, often terminate in Pulmonary Affections, the fatal consequences of which are but too well known. As an Alterative in Chronic Diseases, it is an ad mirable remedy. Dr. James's Powder continues to be prepared by Messrs. New- BillY ' from the only Copy of the Process left by Dr. James in his own hand-writing, which was deposited with their Grand father in 1746, when he became Joint Proprietor ; and is sold by them, AT THE ORIGINAL WAREHOUSE , No. 45, in St. P aul's Church-yard, and by their appointment by J. Sanger, 150, Oxford-street. The Genuine have, as usual, the name, " F. Newbery," en graved in the Black Stamp. AMERICAN NEUTRALITY. FROM TUE NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER. At this moment the following official letter, de fining the duty of our revenue-officers in regard to the European belligerents, will be read with great interest : ' CIRCULAR TO THE COLLECTORS OF CUSTOMS. TREASURY DEPARTMENT, JULY 30, 1823. SIR—As it is probable that in the progress of the war which now exists between France and Spain, the public and private armed vessels of one, and perhaps of both belligerents, may, by stress of weather, pur suit of enemies, or some other urgent necessity, be forced to enter the ports and harbours of the United States, it becomes the duty of the Government to pre *sctibe the manner in which they shall be treated whilst they remain within its jurisdiction. As there exists upon this subject no legislative enactment, the question must be decided by the con ventional engagements which the United States have contracted with the belligerent parties. By the Bth article of the treaty between the United States and Spain, it is provided that the public and private vessels of Spain, when forced by stress of weather, pursuit of enemies, or any other urgent ne cessity, to seek shelter or harbour, may enter into any of the rivers, bays, roads, or ports, belonging to the United States, shall be received with all huma nity, and enjoy all favour, protection, and help, and be permitted to refresh and provide themselves, at reasonable rates, with provisions and all things need ful for the subsistence of their persons, or reparation of their ships, and prosecution of their voyage; and they shall be noways hindered from departing from the said ports or roads, but may remove and depart when and whither they please, without any let or hindrance. With France, the United States have no treaty-sti• pulations upon the subject. The obligations of neu trality, however, impose upon them the observance of the unless course of conduct toward both bellige rents, ualess Spain ha; a right, by treaty, to exclusive pi ivilegei. A reference to the provisions of the Bth article of the treaty above recited, proves that no ex clusive privileges have been granted to her. It be comes, then, the duty of the LTnited States to treat the public and private armed vessels of both parties in the same manner. Assuming the provisions of the article referred to, as the rule by which the conduct of the United States is to he regulated, 1 am instructed by the President to direct..— _ _ Ist. That the public and private armed vessels of France and Spain, with their prizes, may, under the ch . cumstances de scribed in the said Article, enter the parts, harbours, and waters of the United States, and repair any damages which they may have sustained; but no increase of arms or munitions of war, or of the number of men on board, can be lawfully made. 'dd. That such prizes cannot be condemned or sold within the jurisdiction of the United States, and consequently cannot be admitted to entry at the Custom-house, nor permitted to enter ixta the general consumption. 3d. That they tinny at any time depart from the United States without let or hindrance. 4th. That when prize-vessels have been wrecked, or so dis abled as not to be reialered seaworthy, their cargoes may be re shipped in any other sq:;..se: which shall nut enjoy an exemption from capture, not enjoyed by such prise-vessels. For example, WM. H. CRAWFORD. MEXICO. According to Mexican Gazettes to the 27th June, quoted its a New Yhrk paper of the 9th-ult. a treaty between Spain and Mexico was in some forwardness. The Representatives of the Mericzn Govermment, and -the Commissioners from Spain sent out to treat with them, held a preliminary meeting at Vera Crnz on the 28th of May, at which they prriduced their re , spective commissions, and agreed that their future meetings should be held at Xala pa. They accordingly assembled in that city on the 12th of June, when the Spanish Commissioners read a long letter in which the disposition of Spain towards Mexico - was fully explained, and a copy was ordered to be sent to the Government at Mexico. In the Sitting of the 14th, Guadaloupe Victoria called on the Spanish Com missioners to declare explicitly the views of-the Spa nish Government oh the recognition of the indepen dence of Mexico, in order that a definite reply might put an end to the idle reports among the common people of the sinister views of Spain. The Spanish Commissioners replied, that they could give no stronger proof of the dispoAtion of their Government to recognize their independence, than the.fact that they had offered them suitable conditions and gua rantees, and had clothed their Commissioners with the necessary authority to act on the subject. Nothing particularly interesting was transacted in the Sitting of the 14th, except ordering a copy of the pro ceedings of the day before to be forwarded to Mexico, and they then adjourned. They re-assembled on the 18th, when Guadaloupe Victoria signified to them the indispensable necessity he was under of leaving Xalapa; but previous to departing inquired of the Commissioners if they were di'posed to enter into a provisional treaty of commerce, and on what condi tions ? &c. They replied, that in exercise of the authority vested in them by Government, they were disposed to conclude a treaty of commerce u n d er such conditions as would operate to the mutual ad vantage of both countries. After which the Session was dissolved. Extract of a letter, dated Jury 10, 1823-:—" Seve ral officers of rank were shot at the city of Mexico, not long since, for conspiring against the present Go vernMent. General St. Ana, professing to be such a great patriot, has become a traitor, but he newel was considered anything else by the people. He has marched with his army to Ssn Luis Potosi, and there his troops declared him Emperor IL by the title of Antonio Ist. His treachery occurred thus early, in consequence of his not getting at the head of the Government, to which he aspired. In fact, I see nothing but intrigue ; each one is aiming for some great place; so that everything is sacrificed for self aggrandizement. No one General, whose name is familiar in the United States, can be called a patriot, but General Victoria. He has given up everything for his country's good. I think much difficulty must arise before things are properly adjusted. " Not long since, an affray took place in one of the coffee-houses in Mexico, in which two officers were killed. A dispute arose between them—one drew his sword, and ran the other through instantly. Colonel Estarbory, an intimate acquaintance of mine, entered at that moment, and in the corpse of this officer recognised his intimate friend. For this cow ardly action, he immediately demanded the survivor to meet him, which he refused. At the moment, the Colonel drew his sword sans cereuzonie, and killed him instantly. The guard interfered and took the Colonel to prison ; but nothing serious can be appre hended, as those cases occur so frequently ; .indeed, I merely mention it to give you some idea how things are going on here." CREASES WASHABLE PAPER-HAXGINGS.—TheSe Papers, although of the most delicate colour or pat tern, may be washed with • soap and water, which operation can be repeated as often as any accidental soil or stain may render it necessary, without the slightest injury to the paper, pattern, or ground colour. Camas' and Co. the Inventor* and only Manufacturers of the NVashable Paper Ilaoginge, will feel themselves flattered by the vi.its of those Ladies and Gentlemen whO may feel themselves disposed to ascertain for themselves the correctness of the above, by actual experiment, at the Manu factory, No. 7, Great Newport-street, Long Acre; where also may be seen Specimens of their Washable Distemper l'ainting for the interior of houses, which, from the brightness of its tint strongly resembles the aprarance of a water-colour, although its surface is equally impervious to moisture as that of an oil paint ELEGANT GLASSES, FtittNlTUßge BCc.—The Ne. bility and Gentry are invited to inspect the Ware rooms of CooPER and Sox, 93, Bishopsgate-'sVithin, where is exhibited an assortment of new ana second hand Plate Glasses, admirably suited to every descrip tion of drawing or dining rooins. The prices are just reduced 40 per cent. on Plates measuring 100 inches by 7'2, and upwards; and on those of smaller dimen sions the alteration will be found equally important. The extensive preference given'to this Establishment isthankfully acknowledged by the Proprietors. who, in.their endeavours to evince their gratitude, by ma ' uutacturing articles in a superior manner, at prices suitable to the times, hope to merit a continuance of is public support. In the furniture department com prised every new and elegant article of . Upholstery Cabinet, and Chair-work, iegnlifited Erik* such a scale of economy as to demand and cassias the,pa trunage of rank and fashion.
