In hot climates, where Fluxes, and Bilious Complaints are very prevalent, especially in the West Indies and America, these Drops, are by extensive and suc cessful experience, proved to be invaluable. They pro duce perspiration in the most gentle and easy manner, and without giving the Patient the least disturbance or uneasi ness. These Drops, given agreeably to the direction in the several and distinct cases, not a single instance has ever come to the knowledge of Dr. Norris, in which they have failed to cure.

Mr. Jarrin, the celebrated confectioner of New Bond-street ; Mr. Ackermann, the proprietor of " Ackermann's Repository," 96, Strand ; Mr. Wal ler, the stationer, of No. 49, Fleet-street ; Mr. John Salter, silversmith to the Duke of Sussex, cornier of the Adelphi ; Mr. Dunn, the law stationer, of Fleet street ; Mr. Painter, a glover, in Fleet-street ; Mr. Winnington, a wine-merchant ►n the City ; Messrs. Hornbuckle and Co. spirit-merchants, New Bond street ; and other individuals in an extensive way of business, who had been swindled out of goods by the noted Barrow alias Hopkinson, did not appear at the examinations of that person, under the impres sion that their cases in most instances amounted only to simple debts. The following are the circum stances under which this notorious character obtained goods from the persons named : On the 4th of March the prisoner drove up to Mr. Aekermann's Repository, in a dashing cabriolet, accompanied by a fashionablydressed female, and attended by a groom. On entering the Repository, he presented h►s card with the usual address, " Thomas 'Hopkinson, Trinity College, Cambridge," and ordered two of the most elegant and expensive Albums to be made up for him with all possible ex pedition. One of the Albums was to have a gilt clasp, and the other lie directed should have a steel lock and key, stating as a reason for this difference, that he wanted the latter particulary "for his trans tion of Virgil," and as he intended shortly to return to the University, he was desirous that his fellow collegians should not profit by his studies, meaning that the students might possibly copy the transla dons, if the Album was not locked. The prisoner swore several round oaths whilst remaining in the Repository, although surrounded by ladies; and on being asked where the Albums should be sent to, when completed, he replied, " Why, at present I am living in St. James's -street, near Crock ford's Club-house, but I intend removing in a few days to a house in the Regent's Park; at all events, I shall send you word if I remove before the Albums are finished." The prisoner and his female companion then drove off, and a day or two afterwards Mr. Ackermann received a note from the prisoner, dated "32, Park-road, Regent's Park," and requesting the Albums, with the account, amounting to 41. 45., to be sent immediately. Mr. Ackermann conceived there was something suspicious in the prisoner's proceedings; but ultimately, the Albums were delivered at 32, Park-road, on the 10th March. Mr. Ackermann afterwards traced the prisoner, who had been turned out of the house in Park-road, to lodgings in East-street, and Spring street, Manchester-square. At the former place he had slept two nights with the lion. Mr. Long Wel lesley's coachman, who cut a conspicuous figure in the late proceedings at the Courts in Westminster; and the landlady at the house in Spring-street re gretted that she had suffered " such a man" as the prisoner to remain in her abode a single night. Mr. Ackermann, however, was not successful in tracing out Barrow, and he heard nothing further of him until he was informed that he was in custody, when Mr. Ackermann (who is a foreigner) declined to come forward and state his charge, being influenced by the consideration that he might be compelled to prosecute--a course which he was exceedingly re- luctant to take. Mr. Salter received a visit from Barrow on the Bth March of the present year. He informed Mr. Salter's nephew that he was going to be married in a few months to Lady Percival, and until his house, 32, Park-road, should be fitted up in a style corres ponding to the rank of his intended bride, he would require some cutlery of a common description to knock about. He then ordered a dozen plated desert knives, and the same number of soup ladles, spoons, and forks, and wished them to be sent up that after noon, as he had a- dinner party. The goods were accordingly made up, with the exception of the forks, _which were accidentally 'omitted, and Mr. Salter's porter was despatched with the parcel and the account, amounting to 71. lls., to Mr. Barrow's residence. On reaching Park-road, the porter found Mr. Barrow was not within, and he therefore re fused to leave the goods. Mr. Salter's nephew called again in the evening at Barrow's house, with whom he had an interview, and he seemed highly displeased that the goods were not left in the morn ing. He wrote out an additional order for a dozen • silver table forks, and the same number of spoons, which he requested should be sent upon the follow ing morning. Mr. Salter executed the order, which came to 25/.,but on the porter inquiring for Mr. Barrow, Mr. Finlayson, the landlord of the house, informed him that he had " turned Mr. Barrow neck and shoulders out of the house that morning," and Mr. Salter, of course, was only a sufferer by Mr. Bar low's knavery to the amount of 71. Hs. Mr. Salter afterwards eucountered Barrow in the street, when he made an appointment to be at the house in Park road the same evening, that he might make some ar rangement with Mr. Finlayson, to induce that gen tleman to deliver up the cutlery; but it is almost • needless to add, that Barrow never made his appear ance at Mr. Finlayson's. In conjunction with Mr. Ackermann, Mr. Salter subsequently traced Barrow to a barber's shop in East-street, Manchester-square, where he had been going with Mr. Long Wel lesley's coachman. It appears that the prisoner represented to several other individuals, Mr. Good man, Mr. Doubleday's clerk amongst the number, that he was on the eve of marriage with Lady Per cival, knowing that there was no such lady in exist ence (Lord Percival, eldest son of the Earl of Egmont, being unmarried, and the Noble Earl has no daughters), although it was the family name of two Noble Lords, and consequently the false repre sentation could not easily be detected. Barrow swindled Mr. Jarrin, of Newßond-street, out of Champagne, liqueurs, confectionery, Sec. under circumstances entirely different from the other cases. Mr. Jarrin executed a written order in March, for the prisoner, under the name of Barrow, which amounted to 21.105. and the confectionery, &c. was sent to some chambers in Lincoln's-inn-fields. Two months afterwards the prisoner himself entered Mr. Jarrin's shop, dressed in a blue livery, and threw a letter en the counter, and, without waiting for a reply, walked away. Mr. Jarrin found the letter to contain an order for Curagoa, liqueurs, &c. to the amount of 5/. to be sent to 32, Park-road; and the writer described himself as Mr. Hopkinson, of Tri nity College, and referred Mr. Jarrin to his friend, " v. J . Foley, Esq. M.P. of 41, Curzon-street, May Fair, a cousin of Lord Foley's, if Mr. Jarrin consi dered it necessary to make any inquiries concerning him." Mr. Foley being well known to Mr. Jarrin as one of his principal customers, executed Barrow's order without applying to Air. Foley, feeling assured that that gentleman's friends were persons of dis tinction, and not entertaining the slightest sus picion that Mr. Barrow, of Lincoln's Inn, and Mr. Hopkinson, of Park-road, were the same in dividuals. About the middle of June, Mr. Jarrin received another extensive order from Mr. Hop kinson, dated Euston-grove, and requesting that Champagne, liqueurs, and confection er y, to t h e amount of 20/. might be sent up immedi ate l y , as h a intended to give a grand entertainment. Mr. Bos sange, the foreign bookseller, of Great Marlborough street, chanced to be in Mr. Jarrin's shop, when Barrow's groom presented the note from his master, and that gentleman gave such information as in duced Mr. Jarrin to act with caution in supplying Mr. Hopkinson with Champagne, &c. as Mr. Bossange related the particulars of an ingenious at tempt of Mr. Hopkinson to swindle him out of a large quantity of books. Mr. Jarrin, however, sent lip the Champagne, ices, &c. with the hill, which, on being presented to Barrow, he exclaimed, " Why, what nonsense it is of Jarrin to be so particular, after I have referred him to Foley; leave the things and I will settle both accounts to-morrow." Mr. Jarrin':: messenger, however, had received orders to the con trary effect, and the supply of delicacies for Mr. Bar row's approaching e ntertainment were brought back to Bond-street, and Mr. Jarrin was, therefore, only 4 sufferer by the prisoner to the amount of 71. 10s. The fact has not been stated, that Barrow was on the point of being discharged when he was brought up from St. Pancras watch-house on Saturday, the Bth instant, no person for some time appearing to make any specific charge agairist him ; a Mr. San who.attended on behalf of Miss Hopton, of 336, Oxford-street, having withdrawn that lady's complaint against him. In the mouth of January, 1827, the prisoner, who (lien had apartments in Thanet-place, Tcmple-bar, and rented " Windmill Cottage, Clapham," fre quently lounged into Mr. Waller's shop, at 49, Fleet -street, and purchased small quantities of writ ing paper. He spoke in familiar terms of several of -Mr. Waller's most respectable customers, and Mr. Waller therefore concluded he was on intimate terms with the gentlemen who dealt with him. At length Barrow represented that he was going into practice as a solicitor; and. on one occasion, after selecting stationery to the amount of 31. 1 Is., which he di rected to be sent to Thanet-place, he told Mr. Wa ller. that his clerk should call in a few days, to look out an assortment of account-books, &c. Mr. Waller never saw Mr. Barrow's clerk, but Barrow himself applied to Mr. Waller, a few days after he had been supplied with the stationery, and selected Sir Wal ter Scott's Works, " Life in London," and other works, to the amount of 10/., which his groom con veyed, in a gig, to Mr. Barrow's residence, on Clap ham Common. Mr. Waller, afterwards, repeatedly sent to Windmill Cottage for the amount of his bill, but Barrow was always invisible, and Mr. W. never heard of him, until he saw an account in the papers, of his apprehension, at Euston Grove, far sending a forged order to Miss Hopton, of 336, Ox ford-street, for two Leghorn bonnets, which he had dated from 18, Hamilton-place, Piccadilly, in the name of Charles Hopkinson, Esq., the banker, who resides in Cadogan-place, Chelsea. It was soon ascertained that there was no Number 18 in Hamil ton-place. Barrow, however, possessed sufficient tact to know that if lie had written the note from either the residences of the Earl of Eldon, Earl Gower, Earl Belmore, or the Marquis of Exeter, in Hamilton-place, the fraud would have been disco vered with more facility. Mr. DYER intimated, that unless some case was established upon oath, the prisoner must be set at liberty. Mr. James Green, jun. of Will's hotel and coffee house, Serle-street and Portugal-street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, then stated that the-prisoner had swin dled him out of some wine and spirits upon two occa sions, but he was not prepared to substantiate his charge against him on that day. Mr. Dyer desired Mr. Green to inform him of the circumstances under which Barrow had defrauded him, and ultimately ordered the prisoner to be remanded, and directed Mr. Green to attend on the next examination. Mr. Green accordingly produced the notes, when the prisoner was again brciught up, but owing to the office being so excessively crowded by persons who had charges to make against him, they were not read, and Mr. Green's case, although one of the strongest, was not followed up. A Gentleman, from whom Mr. Sergeant Rough rented chambers in Lincoln's Inn, identified the hand-writing of Bar row, in the notes addressed by him to Mr. Green, having often seen him write whilst he lived in the capacityof Clerk or Secretary to the Sergeant, when the latter gentleman lived in Lincoln's Inn-fields. On Barrow being discharged by the Sergeant, four or five years ago, he called on Mr. Green, and ob tained half a dozen bottles of sherry in the Sergeant's name. Mr. Green was not aware he had been im posed on until he applied to Sergeant Rough on the subject; who informed him that he had entirely dis carded the prisoner for his dissolute coarse of life. Mr. Green heard nothing further from the prisoner until the 27sh July, when a groom brought him the following note; but owing to Barrow not applying personally, he had no idea that Mr. Hopkinson, late of Trinity College, and Mr. Barrow, Sergt. Rough's private secretary, were one and the same person : " Mr. Hopkinson (late of Trinity College, Cambridge, and of Cowley-grove, Uxbridge) compliments to Mr. Green, and regrets he must be troublesome to-day, unavoid able as it is, in consequence of his arriving in town too late last evening, either to send up or call upon Mr. Green. Mr. Hopkinson will feel particularly obliged to Mr. Green, if lie will accommodate him with sending up to his town residence half a dozen of his Port, and half dozen Sherry, such as he usually supplies Sir Charles Wetherell with, and at the same time he shall require half dozen of Champagne, and half dozen bottles of Cogniac Brandy : and to-morrow send up one dozen and a half of each sort, so as to make two dozen ofeach, with an account. Mr. H. would not trouble Mr. Green to-day, but he has a few friends to dine with him. If Mr. H. finds the wines as spoken of. he will have his further supplies from him, as his late wine-merchants, Hooper and Burroughs, are now bankrupts. " Euston-grove, July 27. " The bearer (Mr. [L's groom) will assist in carrying the wine up." Mr. Green accordingly supplied the prisoner with his first order, and sent up the following morning to know how he was to make the receipt out, and receive other directions. The groom said his master found the wine; excellent, and wished Mr. Green to execute the second order without delay. Mr. Green, however, resolved to have an interview with his new customer before he supplied -him with any more wine, and he called repeatedly in Euston-grove for that purpose, but Mr. Hopkinson was never to be seen. On the 30th July, Mr. Green received-snother communication from Mr. Barrow, to the following effect : " Mr. Hopkinson regrets he was from home during Mr. Green's repeated calls. Mr. H. begs to inform Mr. Green, from what has been stated by his servant, that he will thank him to send up his account by the bearer for what wines he has had. Mr. Hopkinson can only say, that Mr. Green is at perfect liberty to make inquiry of him to any Gentleman of the Bar who has belonged to Trinity, or to any one living in his own neighbourhood (Uxbridge), and possibly Mr. Green may repent having spoken so in sultingly of Mr. Hopkinson, who is himself going a short distance oat of town for a day or two, or he would have called upon Mr. Green, feeling hurt as he does at Mr. Green's insinuations. Mr. Hopkinson will settle Mr. Green's account on his return, and therefore Mr. Green may save himself the trouble of calling or leaving any more messages at Euston Grove." On Mr. Green again applying at Euston Grove, the servant informed him that her master was just taken to the watch-house, whither Mr. Green ac cordingly proceeded, and immediately recognised the ci-rievant Secretary to Mr. Sergeant Rough.— On the evening previoug to his apprehension, he had the assurance to enter the watchhouse and offer himself as bail for Miss Matilda Nelson, who was then in custody for obtaining the Leghorn bonnets. Birchmore, the constable, expressed himself reluc tant to accept bail, and told the prisoner that he had no paper to write his (Barrow's) address upon. Oh, if that's all," exclaimed Barrow, " 1 will tear a leaf out of my betting-book," and produced a small pocket-book; but Birchmore still refused to take the prisoner's security, and. the prisoner de parted. Not many hours, however, had elapsed, -when the prisoner himself was brought to the watch house in custody. (From the Dublin Evening Post of Saturday.) We refer our readers with pleasure to the follow ing document. In those times it is gratifying to find men of all sects coming forward to represent to the Government and to Parliament, the real state of the country, and their opinion, in temperate lan guage, as to the meahs dr restoring peace and giving prosperity to all. We defy the Most deterinined partizan, at either side, to object to the sentiments conveyed by this document, and we are rejoiced to find that it has already been signed, not only by many of the first Noblemen and Gentlemen "per sonally interested in the condition and sincerely anxious for the happiness of Ireland," who have long laboured in that pursuit, but also by persons belonging to all creeds who have never before taken any part in what is termed the Politics of Ireland. We give this document, at present, without the sig natures already attached to it, because we wish that the public throughout Ireland may have an oppor tunity of giving a sitnultaneous expression to their sentiments. Let each ltidividual, who concurs in the justice and necessity of this document, obtain, in his immediate vicinity, signatures to it. Let those be forwarded to where the original lies, with Messrs. Latouche, in Castle-street, and then we shall indeed have to congratulate the Government and the coun try at the genuine and powerful exhibition of the real opinions of the wealthy and intelligent portions of the community, collected from every district. DECLARATION INTENDED TO BE SIIBMITTI:Ii Td PARLIA MENT ON THE NEXT DISCUSSION OF THE Cletittatt Qt FSTION. We, the undersigned, being personally interested in the condition, and sincerely anxious for the happiness of Ireland, feel ourselves called upon, at the present juncture,to declare the conviction we entertain,that the disqualifying laws which affect his Majesty's Roman Catholic Subjects are productive of consequences prejudicial in the highest degree to the interest of Ireland, and the Empire to which she is united.— With respect to Ireland in particular, they are a pri mary cause of her poverty and wretchedness, and the source of those political discontents, and religious animosities that distract the country, endanger the safety of all its institution:, and are destructive alike of social happiness and national prosperity. We are further of opinion, that unless the wisdom of the Legislature shall speedily apply a remedy to these evils, they must, in their rapid progression, assume, at no distant period, such a character as must render their ultimate removal still more diffi cult, if not impossible. We, therefore, deem h of paramount importance to the welfare of the Empire at large, and of Ireland especially, that the whole subject should be taken into immediate consideration by Parliament, with a view to such a final and con ciliatory adjustment as may be conducive to the peace and strength of the United Kingdom, to the stabilility of our National Institutions, and to the general satisfaction and concord of all classes of his Majesty's Subjects. N.B. It would he desirable that those who sign should annex their place of residence to their names. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. LIVERPOOL.

To show bow extensively- those causes, con jointly, have been operating o our national dis advantage, I must trace back to a period of about twenty years, the state of our clothing-, wool, both of native growth as well as of foreign supply. To the time I am referring to, the supply of foreign wool for our manufacturers w ,, s ve , 7 limited, and that chiefly irom Spain. Some little, however, had begun to be intro duced from Germany, but the growth of Brito4 clothing wools are so large as fully to supply the • remaining requisite quantity for our manufacture of cloth. The export of cloth, as it has been shown, was then nearly equal to that of the pit - sent day, and the home consumption, it. mosr, supposed, could not very materially differ from that now existing, since that for the use of the increased population during the current years, can only fairly be estimated as one half the diffe rence, since the wear of woollen cloth is pi iu cipally confined to men ; alzd as a set off agaiAst that, a comlderable sulistittitilon of cottons for woollens in their to, is known to have taken place. These British clothing woe? Were of various qualities; the best was from. the itfiand r3hep, which were considered then of such nat'lonal portance as to have the wool under special Regli-- lations. The sheep themselves were treated, in part, in the manner which I have before spoken of, as having been adopted in Saxotr3,„ and carried 011 there to such excess, that of confining the sheep in close houses, provincially " cots," but the practice for the ITylapds was limited to that ' of " cotting" them by night, and feeding them on hay and pear halm ; but that of the Saxons extended to keeping them wholly confined in winter, and feeding with corn .as well as hay. It has been asserted that the Merino sheep spring from the Rylands; but from this opinion I materially differ, since ,they - vary in sonic parti cular points, and especially that of i the velvet et faces which no other breed, except llerinos, any rate of European sheep, possess. The next class to the Ryland of British clothing wool consisted in that from the South down and Norfolk sheep. The forNer of these, however, possessing some superior qualities, have since 'supplanted the latter. BesideS these there were several varieties of upland short-woolled sheep, the fleeces of which were more or less applied for cloth. About the period I have referred to a consi derable convulsion took place throughout Europe, which was not without its effects in this matter. One of the first acts of Napoleon, after get ting possession of the Peninsula of Spain, was to drive into France very large flocks of the Me rino sheep. The Germans had already become possessed of some of them, by the use of which they had begun, and have since gone on rapidly to improve their native flocks. At this time it was apprehended that •ve, should be cut off from the supply of Spanig/ wool for our finest cloth, but which hitherto had only amounted to about three million pounds, and the quantity grown of British _Ryland wool being very limited, in the wildness of specula tion,, Spanish wool was drawn up to a price of from 18 shillings to a guinea per pound. This Naturally caused a great degree of excitement to improve our native wools ; and a favourable op portunity was offered by the introduction of some of the best Merino sheep from Spain. — Extravagant expectations were formed of imme diate and exorbitant profits. These expectations being disappointed ; the spirit of improving the wcol flagged, and I have already shown, in my former observations, how much the self-interest and prejudices of some, and the mismanagement of others, tended in the outset to depress this spirit of improvement. — Other causes were also operating to prevent it. The coarser clothing wools were in great de mand, and bought up at high prices for the use of the army ; the great demand also for meat, occasioned by the consumption and waste of war, took off much of the pork and beef, and threw the home consumption more on mutton ; conse quently large carcasses in sheep, and heavier fleeces, even though they were coarser, were not deemed objectionable, and in an evil hour cross ing those flocks of the description of Southdown, first took place, I believe on the Western Downs, by the use of the Berkshire sheep, a much larger and coarser sheep both in carcase and wool, un kindly in disposition to fatten, and coarse in the grain of mutton, but possessing mottled faces . somewhat like the Southdown sheep . The old breed of Berkshire sheep is now happily nearly extinct, but i t has thus left a stain behind it. Some othe r breeds of British evident by sheep had also a share in the crossing, as was if it su i ts the purpose of the moment, it of the fleece, but it is as wun necessary in this place to enter on the particulars. sheep is now within a very limited well as otlleteocpleianiii,geessof frame and cc , mtenance, When, however, an alteration of the kind takes place, spreads far and wide, and is not easily reclaimed, and I fear it will be found that the real breed of I make this remark not as arising out. of the evidence I have recently read, for 1 had often expressed the same opinion before that evidence was known ; but I offer it as the result of long and atteNti- ,eobservation. From habit, as well as the interest I have felt in the cause, I lavefor years scarcely ever passed a flock of .1 s iort-woolled sheep in any part of the country, or a drove from Smithfield, without my eye ranaina over them to see their general cha racter,b compass.S tbd °" and especially as to wool ; and I flatter myself that I can from custom at once distin guish between the original and the mixed South down breed. Let those who are acquainted with the subject, and differ from me in opinion, look (in a season of the year when the wool i s i n a state to lead to a crrrect judgment in the matter) at the numerous sheep which are collected by twenty thousands in a day in that great mart j Smithfield, and where good and bad, but mostly the good congregate from all quarters, and then
