No. 9, New -Bridge-strect, London. HONOURED Situ, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the year 1798, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which, from its obstinately resisting every course et medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year my . disorder had got to such a bead, as nearly to put a period to my existenceL--I had a large ulcer on the crown of my bead, one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in.a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; in left had also two large nodes on it, was very iimeh discoloured, and gave me such excruciating pain, .particularly when warm in bed, as nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take our Leake's Patent Pills, which , I began to do on the 46th o. May; in tie course of a fortnight I began to receive benefit -in little more than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed— soon after, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how ever, considerable discolouration in the skin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the hlcssing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin regal---g its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going off.- 7 1 thus became, by your liheial advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my former complaints—have recovered my tOrMer spirits a nd strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state havi:eg continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew a.e, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, hut beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my caseas public as possible, as I sUall on every Occa, sion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige, • Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humbleservant, ALEX.

THE COLONIES. NOVA SCOTIA. PROVINCIAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. A Genrial Meeting of'the Society took place this day in Mason's Hall according to advertise ment,..siid was graced by-a very hell and respect able A;sembly. The number.of Gentlemen who came forward to countenance the measures and give them their support was a demo-nstrative proof, that the solicitude and . zeal which have lately, displayed themselves are still on the in:. crease, and that the metropolis shall not be awanting to further the agricultural advancement of the Province. There is unquestionably no spectaeje more grateful and pleasing to the bene volent iisiod, than the contemplation of a body of men, animated and informed by one common itn pike, and that impulse allied to the general weal. It 'dignifies - human nature ; it recalls the devotedness of the ancients to country, and thus awakeussClassit recollections ; it flings over the grasping anti cos»mercial spirit of' present times the fascinating veil of philanthropy.--s All the kingdoms of modern Europe are distinguished, more or less, by such exalted institutions ; and the greater their number, the more powerful and illustrious the nation. The Provincial Agricul tural Society, now' coustituted by Charter and en dowed by the Legislature, may in a certain sense be considered as the first fruits of that love of country, which will gradually enlighten and pu rify the public sentiment. It is an association, hot of men prone after private emolument ; not seeking the gratification of any vulgar pleasure ; not united by political faction ; not influenced by' the fervours of the religious spirit ; not in short drawn together by any of the common ties.'and sympathies which usually bind mankind into clubs and fraternities ; but it is a society of all ranks, classes and denominations in the capital, whose seal is public virtue, and whose bond of union is the prosperity of Nova Scotia. It may be viewed as an object of proud grat - ulation ; since it has received a legal existence and consti tution ; since it is supported equally by.. private ,bounty and by Legislative munificence ; and since its effects for seven years, during which it will direct and superintend the labours of the husband man, can now be fairly tried, and without ditubt, at. the conclusion of that period, will be ji,stly 'estimated. The business was opened by the Secretary, who stated, that.. the Agritultnral . Committee, in fulfil ment of the trust reposed in them, bad Applied - 10 the Legislature for a Charter ; that it had now received the great seal of die Province, tend was this day presented to them for inspection. As the society nhw acted as a corporate Body, it• was proper that they should appoint their Offi eels,* and particularly that the President should be..chosen, to take the chair on the present oc casion. He concluded with proposing, that the Governor-General, the Right Honourable the Earl of DALHOUSIB, should hil that important station. His Lordship,in reply stated, that he would willingly accept the office; but thlit he onus, claim the liberty of transferring it, on his depar ture for Canada, to his successor. The Hon. the CHIEF JUSTICE Was then named as Vice President, though in his a6sence—which was confirmed by the Society. Mr. ARCHIBALD next rose and mentioned, that the Gentleman, who had all along conducted the affairs of that Society as Secretary, should be ap pointed under the charter to the joint office of Se- Cretary and Treasurer. Some conversation took place among the members about the incompatibi lity of uniting these two offices in one and the same person ; and it was argued that the Act of Incorporation discountenOced such a measure.— By reference, however, to the Act, it was found that a total silence obtained on this► head; and therefore the Society might proceed to the double appointment if thought to be a matter of expediency. The noble President then proposed Mr. Young as the Secretary of the So ciety for the ensuing year—Which being as sented to, he further proposed him as the Trea , surer of the Society—to whiCh he was unani mously 'elected. As the Act of the Legislature, by which the Society was incorporated, had fixed the signing of the Letters Patent as the period in which- the twenty Directors formerly chosen should come into power, the•following Gentlemen %.vre con : . firmed in that important office : The Hon. M. Wallace, I Hon. R. J. Uniacke, . -B. Haliburton, Peter 111‘Nab. Esq. James Stewart, John Pryor, Esq. Sol.-Gen. S.B. Roble, Esq. John Prescott, Esq. S. G. W. Archibald, Esq. Sam. A I bro, Esq. H. H. Cogswell, Esq. Thos. Boggs, Esq. Rev. J. Inglis, M. Richardson, Esq. • Rev. B. G. Gray, Wm. Pryor, Esq. L. Hartshorne, Esq. John Stavocr, Esq. Rufus Fairbanks, Esq. Sand. Lydiard, Esq. • It was further stated, that in the distribution of : the Legislative grant the sun) of For •y pounds had been appropriated as agricultural prizes for time district of Halifax, and that the season was now at hand to adjudge these to such. members of the Provincial Society, as had ;Dade the requkite exertions. To determine the merit of the re spective.claims that might be given in, a Com mittee of five was nominated to act as inspectors and Judges, viz. • Henry Yeomans, Esq. Janes Foreman, Esq. Dr. Wm. John Alhro, Esq. • Robert Hartshorne, Esq. • - - - At this stage of the business Judge STEWART conylimenied the gentlemen present on the lull. ness and respectability of the meeting. We wet'e now a strong phalanx all united heart and hand in the prosperity of the country, and we must command success. Last year at this time and in this place he was more tearful of -the issue; and expressed a hope that the zeal then manitested might not end in smoke. Now he was cert e atn of the result, and congratulared the country on its great progress. In the performance of bii offi cial duty, he had occasion to traverse the Pro vince in all directions; and he could remark a rapid.improvement both in the East and West, end in the North and Soirtlr. iThe farmer was redoubling his efforts, and the face of the country was 'dragging under his hands---!4I1 which could justly he attributed to, his Lordship and to that gentleman (pointing _to Mr. 'Young;) who bad 'both taken such a warm and lively interest in the advancement of our agriculture. Judge ITALIBURtON merely rose to give con firmation and add his .testimony 9f what bad fal ler front his brother. Wherever he had travelleti in the circuit, a marked improvement was visible. All uttn seemed now vielog in the cultivating o f the soil. Our prosperity had take deep root, and reßuired only the fostering cate of the So. ciety to encourage and protect it. Much pi aise was eerrainly dot to his Lordship (or his active zeal to the service of nor, agriculture. The Earl of DALtioustrt replied, that in .bitt. iOnmies through the Provloce he h a d - e l sa re tnarkedl a much better spirit very widely diffused.' He now considered the agriculture of this Pro 'Once as secure from all danger, whoever might be Governor ; and although he must' leave its, be would always exercises W9tChtlll care over our interests. lie was happy 10 inform Ilia meeting, that his surcessor,'Sir Jantes Kempt, would prove ctpially warm and sincere as himself in the promo tion of our Rural affairs ; and while this Society existed and was so liberally and respectably sup ported, he entertained no doubt of our complete SUCCeSS. Judge HALIBLIRTON proposed that the Soeie , y, which had beer► supported by such a liberal sub scription and which embraced so great a number, no-less than two hundred and sixty, should secure its own stability by an active vigilance over its funds. As the appointments of the day bait sub stituted a new Treasurer in room of the old, be would submit to the considerati,on of the meeting whether it was not expedient to appoint a Cop). mittee of. Accounts to examine the intromissiuns, ,hud to stsike the•balance previous-to its being paid over to the new Officer. In conformity to Ibis motion, The Hon. John Black, The Hon. H. N. Bilthey, and H. H. Cogswell, Esq. were nominated to investigate the accounts of Wm. Lawson, Esq. the actingTreasnrer for the past year. Judge LIALraunToN proceeded to observe, that the thanks of the Society were justly-due to Mr. Lawson, for his . gratnitous services as Acting 'fret• surer ; and these %vele accordingly conveyed to hitn from the chair, ' UFUS FAiIiB4NKS,Esq. begged , leave to say, (hat he had constructed . a plough and triangular bat row, which he had brought to the door of the Halt forthe inspection of the membt'rs, and which be considered as peculiarly fitted for breaking up strong anti nnsubdtiod land JutigeST : Erwtour wi,bed that the thanks of the Society should be given to Mr. Fairbanks, not only fOr this instance of his attention to our aari cultural interests, but for his many past services in their behalf. ROBERT HP4ITSITORNE . , Esq. remarked, that patent iron plough had attracted much notice in the States ; t hat he held in his hand an advertise ment, describing its qualities, and mentioning the place where it could be . procured; and he wished, therefore, that one should be imported from New- Yolk, a& a pattern for the use of rite Province. The Secretary was then ordered to commission this plough, and to pay the same from the funds of the Society. _ _ The meeting then proceeded to take into con sideration the propriety of framing Bye-laws for the internal regulation of its officers anil members, and elected for this purpose, S. B. Roliie, Esq. S. G. W. Archibald, Esq. and Wni. Lawson ' Esq. • It was lastly resolved, that the annual subscrip. (ions due by the members, should be paid into the hands of _the Treasurer, on or before the 25th instant, and that a notice to that effect should be insered in the new-papers: Halifax, Dec. 16, 1819. - • WEYMOUTH, APRIL B.—A most melancholy accident occurred here on Saturday last to three young ladies, visitors front Gloucestershire, resid ing in Devonshire.bulidings. The three - young ladies, Miss Moore, Miss Fry, and Miss Vizard, we r e particularly anxious to enjoy a trip on the water previously to leaving the town ; and al though. the wind on Saturday blew fresh at S.W. and was at intervals squally, they: imprudently hired a boat that was smaller than thOsegenerally engaged for sea excursions. There was onlyone sailor attached- to the bOat, besides . tlicir roan servant ; and 41 crossing the bay a squall of wind increased the swelling of the wares, and so alarm, ed the ladies, that, instead of remaining still, they all removed to leeward :in such confusion as caused the boat to upset within three hundred yards of the shore, hear the turnpike. every possible as sistance was instantly rendered by - the persons on shore who witnessed the accident ;. Miss Vizard, however, we are grieved , to say, Was brought ashore dead, the utmost exertion to testore 'nation having been in vain made use of by The Gentlemen of the Faculty. The first person who flew to'the assistance of the ladies, on nett eiving their sad disaster, was E. Henning, Esq. who, with a promptitude beyond all praise, plunged into the sea, and, at the r i sk, of his lite, preserved Miss 'Fry from a watery grave. This lady and Miss MOore,together with the man servant,- we ate happy to say, are now in y fair way ofilescovery.,,
