No. 9, New Bridge-street, London. • HONOURED Sin, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the year 1790, 1 had been afflicted with the Lucs Venereal, which, from its obstinately resisting every course of 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 tl._ spring of last year my stisorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of mrhead, on e on each arm, and my legs were broke oat in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years; my left had also two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured,an t i: gave me such excruciating pain , particularly when warm i as a early to deprive rue of rest ; iu this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I began to do on the With n. May ; in the course of a fortnight I began to receive benetitHn _little more than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed— soon atter, the sores ors toy legs healed also; leaving, how ever, considerable discolouratioa in the skin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the blissing of God, mast a little longer perseverance in y ,ur invaluable Medicine, subsided; the nodes dispersing, the skirt regaining its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going thus became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free front all my former complaints—haVe recovered my former spirits a aid strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every oCca sion ; in so doing you win greatly oblige , Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humbleservant, ALEX.

E~ MONDAY, MARCH 15, 1824. ARDROSSAN HARBOUR. ( To the Editor of the Ayr and TVigtonshire Courier.) LONDON, 28th FEB. 1824. Sits,—l have reason to be grateful to a gentleman for having obligingly favoured me with a perusal of your paper of the 24th inst., by which I have an opportunity of noticing the angry as sertions, unhooded personalities, and prima facie interested feelings of your Correspondent, Mr. William Auld—a gentle man (I presume) with whom I am not at all disposed to enter into controversy. By which prudent step, perhaps, he will at once infer that I acknowledge him mysuperior in the argumen tum ad hominem, at least.'—if not so in marine descriptions and disinterested motives. I hmy reply, and not touch upon veracity or accuracy, in to hi s friends in Airshire to elicit from b b e u brief r l i e e a f y n his answers a few questions, and thefttets I shall subsequently state. Be is bound to the' 'nautical w.odd to, answer the former, s and I will hold myselranswcrable fQr tlie'foteta alluded to, and - leave it with Mr.•Auld himself to bear me out in my ori ginal statement, which he has impugned, after taking twenty three days to place his notions on a sheet of paper. To show Mr. Auld, however, that I have no wish to take ad vantage of his real for Ardrtsau and its infantile owner, I have to inform him that the logbook of H. M. sloop Driver is with in my reach ; and, farther, that I am well aware of the motives which induced Lord Eglinton to prevail on her commander to visit .Ardrossan—there, however, are not now my subject, nor were they censurable ; for I agree with Pope and Bollinbroke, that— " True self-love anti social is the same." I would farther inform Mr. Auld, that the opinion and plan of the late celebrated engineer are at my inspection ; but I de clare, upon my honour, that I have seen neither of these docu ment. Having thus premised, 1 call upon Mr. Auld, in the name of the nautical world, to answer me 1. What are the soundings, and what the bottom, on running for Ardrossan pier ? 2. Can a stranger on the coast run for it in a gale of wind by his chart, without a pilot, and without danger ? 3. What is the true depth of water inside of the pier at low neap tides ? 4. What is the difference between spring and neap tides at Ardrossan pier ? 5. Is the bottom inside of the pier sandy, muddy, or rocky ? 6. As the waters of the Frith of Clyde are known to rise con siderably (particularly on the coast of Ayrshire) at flood, and are checked at ebb, by the strong gales from the south and west —did not Mr. Auld state the depth of water at the pier of Ar drossan, at spring tide, on one of these extraordinary jUnCLIOnS of the elements in his favour ? _ _ 7. Can a vessel drawing twelve feet water enter the pier or harbour cf Ardrossan, with a leading wind, at all times of tide ? _ _ ......... 8. On entering the harbour of Ardrossan, was not H. N. ship Driver many tons of water short of her compliment ? 9. When inside of the pier of Ardrossan, arc vessels safe with hemp cables ? 10. Can Mr. Auld declare himself a disinterested writer ? 11. On the utility of Ardrossan, which I allow he has no interests, directly or indirectly, but those of truth? 12. Is he an unprejudiced writer ? 13. Can he, like the propounder of these questions, solemnly declare that he neither knows nor cares a fig about Lord Port land, Lord Eglinton, or any Lord in Christendom ? To conclude, has he given his real name to the public ? that is, will the Editor of the Ayrshire Courier, Ste. vouch for the fact ? Mr. Auld is bouna to answer each and all of these questions, without sophistry, truly and publicly—the in terests of more than the merchants of Saltcoats and Ardrossan demand his answers! As I cannot pretend to know the truth or falsehood of the local occurrences which Mr. Auld has described, Lmust hare ' recourse to a true statement, which will serve the nautical world as a touchstone, whereby his accuracy may be brought to arbour." To this I reply , that the bar of judgment- , Mr. Auld states,. that ' H. M. sloop Driver drew 15i feet when the Driver'sloop has six ''otti ' .... is provisions, stores, sh ot, guns, and water on board, her Xrdrossan, she had not one statute draught is 14 feet 8 orfonwahirosf t d h . ose carrying nine gunsmore l i y n a c t h e e r s o l n eAntnecriin::hirdriohsesavnishited , The common draught of F a, r n i l taltrihsge'essiDttorsriie,z.see d a r— n s ( l l its, : s ' p a cs t: r c el y feet !

T es and vessels are different from reasons are obvious—the one is draught of ships of war. ~,t,lier for speed; hence the greater Mr. Auld informs me that a " merchant brig, the T. -- l ennor Iv ' a, was driven into Ardrossan at half ebb, and she drewfift„, feet water !"—that is about the i . usual draught of a Kior '11) o f 30 ' s : 7 ! guns ! What a bounce ! at half ebb: too ! The easel as a ll ,hi ps fron'l/ves front Quebec, timber-ladened, I dicta, pres' s i h me' s he drew 15 feet water / that port are ; and yet, mire_ Ga.th ! • • Good Mr. Auld, tell it not its .. .....

Auld's measurement, there is I 74 mooring in Cawsand Bay, without once scratching gale ;—when moderate, s h e starts for Dublin, draw i ng fif fe teen et water, her bottom on it, and rides out the and never stops at the Pigeon-house, but runs fifteen feet in the mud off Rings End ! The Merry Don of Dover was nothing to this Newcastle col lier of Mr. Auld's ! From his bouncing, lam disposed to imagine he has read her history —if he has not, let me tell him she once took in coals through her stern-ports at N ewc astle, and at the same time discharged them out of her bow-ports at Yarmouth. On another occasion, when running into the Downs, the fly of her ensign swept ten thousand sheep off Calais cliffs !—but Mr. Auld's Newcastle c ollier, and the Merry Don o f D over , are in hi s ph rase cc invi dious comparisons !" To be serious, however, and to use his own words, " this person s u b scr ibi ng hi mse lf" W m . A u ld, has, after some bouncing, and a lofty flight, descended to his proper element by introducing into Ardrossan the proper sort of ves sels for the said harbour, namely, the revenue-cruizere and the 6() ton Portpatrick packets Until Mr. Auld puts the com mercial and nautical portion of the community in possession of answers to my questions, which will bear the test of scrutiny, I shall take my leave of Mr. Auld, assuring him, that I have an henestly-acquired, and an ecclesiastical right to subscribe myself— H. CAMPBELL. WINCHESTER, MARCH judicious irri provement is now carrying into effect, by order of the Com missioners of the Stockbridge Road. That part of Swan lane which communicates with the Andover and Stockbridge roads, will be extended to a width of thirty-five feet, and put in a substantial state of repair. This will greatly facili tate the ingress of heavily laden wagons and other vehicles into this city, which, instead of passing through the West Gate, will find a much easier access by way of Swan-lane, where by they will avoid.a steep hill, and also a rugged descent.— A society, which has for its benevolent object the reformation of juvenile offenders, has just been established at Guildford. Lord Middleton has consented to become patron, and J. Manges, Esq., Treasurer. NEWPORT, MARCH 12.--Among the numerous victims to the measles in this town and neighbourhood, we are sorry to notice the death of two in one family, and on two successive days, viz . . Wednesday and Thursday—Julia Har riet, and Leopold Henry, daughter and son of Joseph Pfeil, Esq., late of Windsor, but now of Newport ; the former was 14 months, and the latter four year's and a half old.,—Also the whole of the family of a labouring man, near Champion, in this island. They were five in number, and were all carried off by a fever which succeeded the measles. It is not a little remarkable that a nurse child, in the same family, passed through the same disorder at the same time, and is doing very well. A few nights sinCe, the house of CHARLES CALVERT, Esq., M. P., at Whitton, near Hounslow, was stripped of a ton weight of lead. A cart was known to have passed through Isleworth turnpike about two o'clock in the morning, in which the lead was supposed to be conveyed. This is the second robbery of Mr. CALVERT'S house within a few months ; in the first he lost a valuable time-keeper, and other articles. 4k*T I V ' ._ 1.
