EXPERIENCE, during a very long period, has incontestably proved the superior efficacy of this Medicine, in all cases of Colds, Coughs, and Asthmatic Affectious. By promoting gentle expectoration, it very shortly relieves the Pa tient, of a slight or recent Cold, and a few doses are generally suffieient to remove those which neglect has rendered more con firmed and obstinate, and which are accompanied by Cough, Spitting of Blood, and other serious symptoms. Its peculiar balsamic powers tend to heal soreness, and allay the irritation of the lungs, in. cases of Cough; and in Asthmatic Affections, it , assists and gives freedom to the Breath. Thus it is an extec ' sively valuable Remedy In the most prevalent elan of Com plaints in this Country, during the winter season.

The worthy Alderman observed, that he was not present during the discussions in a recent Court of Common Coun cil; but from the reports he had read of the proceed. ings in the newspapers, it appeared that the Member alluded to had, in the course of his speech; disclosed the proceedings, and attacked the conduct of the Court of Aldermen. The proceedings of that Court • were secret, and he contended, therefore, it was a breach of duty, and a violation of their privileges, in any Member, to make those proceedings public, or the subject of his animadversion. elsewhere ; nor could he do so without a manifest violation of the oath taken by every Alderman on entering upon office. In support of this •assertion, the worthy Baronet read the following extract from the Aldermans' oath : "The secrets of this Courte ye shall keep, and not disclose anything here spoken fur the commonwealth •of this City, or that might hurt any person or bro ther of this Courte, unlesse it be spoken to a brother, or any other, which in your conscience . and discre. tion ye shall think to be for the commonwealth of this City.”—The worthy Member had, on various oc casions, attacked the conduct of that Court, and thereby divulged the proceedings thereof; all which he conceived to be highly improper, and to call for the censure of the Court. He should therefore pro. pose some Resolutions upon the subject. Sir William then read a series of Resolutions, the purport of which was to censure Mr. Alderman Waithman, more par ticularly for the disclosures made in his speech at the last Court of Common Council, on the Report relative to the Receivership of the Orphans Dues on Coals. After the reading of these proposed Resolutions, the Court remained some minutes in awful silence, the worthy Baronet not having provided himself with a seconder, and no Member volunteering for the o ffi ce . At len gth, Sir JAIIES SHAW, and other Members, set up the call, " To business—to business!" and the LORD MAYOR was about to proceed upon th e routine business of the day, when Mr. Alderman ATKINS rose and said, " 1 second the motion." Sir JAMES SHAW observed, that there was other and important business for .the consideration of the Court, and for which they had been summoned. He was much surprised that such a motion should be brought forward at all ; and, more particularly, with out any fact or circumstance being stated, upon which they could form a judgment. It the worthy Baronet had any complaint to make, he should. at least have produced some document or evidence in support of his charge, or moved for aCommittee of Inquiry on the subject. He was not aware of the grounds of the worthy Baronets complaint, and conceived the Court could not listen to a general charge cf improper con duct, not confined to any one fact or time whatever. Mr. Alderman WOOD followed to the same effect. Sir JOHN PERRINO said, there was no case or cir cumstance of charge whatever made oat before them, and thought it quite impossible that the Court could entertain so novel a proceeding against oue of its own Members. Sir K.. C. GLysx said, the Honourable Baronet ought surely to have followed up his complaint with something like evidence. The Court certainly could not enter upon the consideration of such a question as this, in absence of all iuforrnation. He, therefore, trusted that they would proceed immediately to the birsiness of the day, and that the worthy Sheriff would not feel it necessary to enter into any discus sion upon the subject. Mr. Sheriff WArresmAN assured the Hon. Baronet who had just spoken, that he had no Kish or intention to waste the time of the Court. The complaint of the Hon: Mover was'so general, that he was as ignorant as every other Member of the Court, of the par ticular circumstances to which the motion allm;cd. The 'public conduct of that Court, as well as of eve:y other Public Body, he considered, was open to ti.e free inquiry and observation of the Public. if his conduct or character were attacked in that Court, he should always feel himself entitled to defend them.... He was as anxious as any Member to support the character and dignity of that Court, although he had sometimes thought that their measures and proceed lags were not always calculated to produce th..t effect. He would not reply to the motion of the worthy Ba ronet, nor the observations with which he accompa nied it. Indeed, they appeared to him so palpably absurd and ridiculous, that he (AldermanWaithman) was scarcely able to suppress his mirth, while the worthy Baronet was deliming them. Alderman Anctur here observed, that as there appeared no disposition on the part of the Court to entertain the Resolutions proposed by his worth:). Friend, he would recommend him to withdraw them. To which Sir Wm. Cuaria readily witted, mad she Court proceeded to the other orders of the da).,
