STEERS'S OPODELDOC has been Jong "W established, from its superior excellence in the above and other external Complaints, and its celebrity has given rise to a variety of tounterits, which are now offered for sale in almost every Street and Town in the Kingdom. They are in general composed of ingredients so base, as to produce little or no effect, then thy deceiving those who expect relief; and they are wrapped up in Directions nearly copies of those of the Genuine Opodeldoc, in which the'llantes of Dr. Steers, of Charing-cross, and Mr. Newbery,tookseller, of St. Paul's Church-yard, persons not in existence, are made use of with the intent of more readily defrauding unwary Purchasers.

Sundry bills an,7 balances were ordered for payment. The Thanks of the Court wee 'unanimously voted to the Rev.

Mr. CANNING,' the eloquent'Member for Liver, pool, left that town on .SatUrdaylast, after re maining- there about a fortnight. . Yesterday sennight was the day fixed for his visit to the salt works and salt mines, belonging to Messrs. I,3onkNEs, of Liverpool, situated near -North wich, in Cheshire. Notwithstanding the heavy fall of snow, and unfavourable stake of the roads, a very numerous and most respectable company, who were invited to meet him, be gan 'at an early hour to assemble, both front that town and the neighbourhood. He arrived about twelve o'clock : upon his. descending into the iniuey, he was received with three times three,' and when he was firmly landed below, a salute of fifteen blasts were fired," which had more effect than any gains we ever heard ; when these were . finished, that excellent band of the Cheshire Legion (which had been previously let down) struck up " God save the% King." After Mr. CANNING had gone round ft great part - of the mines, he came to the spice wbere a large table wali laid out for about 100 persons, with all the tl2 ~dICIYv iii it season 1 , ..N.1;05 tz-:' , etii--e-t---- tainment the band played several loyal tunes. The mines were illuminate'd with about 15,000, Upwards of' 300 persons were present, and all agreed that it was the most magnificent sight they had ever beheld. The depth is 112 to 115 yards. Whilst the company was at table, many blasts were fired, which resembled the rolling of distant thun der. PRICES OF THE 'PUBLIC FUNDS. It is well known to many persons, 'possessed of funded property; that considerable advantages may occasionally be made by .exchanging, one kind of stock for another ; and that such a measure is not attended with any risk or speculation. A favour--; able opportunity of this kind now presents itself, as may readily be seen by comparing the relative prices of the three per cent. and five- per cent. Stocks ; the latter fund being much below its usual . proportion. For instance, prior to the late rise in the Public Funds; the produce of One Hun dred Pounds Stock in the Navy 5 per tents. would purchase nearly One Hundred and Fifty-four Pounds Stock in'the 3 percents. (either Consols or Reduced) ; whereas, according to the present prices of those Funds, the same amount of Stock (namely 1541.) in the 3 per cents. will purchase . One Hundred and' Seven You:Ads Stock in the Navy 5 pin., cents.; thus making a profit in favour of purchasing 5 per cents. of about seven per cent. on the capital exchanged. If it be objected, by the holder of the 3 per cents. that, in the event of Pence taking place, his Stock would rise much more in proportion than in the 5 per cents. ; it May ,be remarked, that that event has 'been already anticipated at the Stock Exchange ; and, should a Peace be concluded immediately, it would be very doubtful (on comparing the present prices of the Funds with those in the year 1801) v!it.‘... timer the three per cents. Would experience a very material rise; or at any "t ate, not greater in pro portion than the 5 pe: cents. ; •whereas'the of the 5 per cents, would, in the mean time, not only be sure of receiving a greater dividend for his money invested (the 3 per cents. paying now only our and a half per cent. interest, and the • 5. per cents. rather more than five and a quarter), but•might also embrace the oppo:tunity of a re exchange (if he thought fit) at the time, of any future .Loan, when the 3 per, cents. would cer tainly fall considerably more in proportion than the 5 per cents. As to the idea of the 5 per cents. being paid off in the event of peace, it may be remarked that, in the present situation of - the finances of the coun try, such a measure is next to impossible ; indeed it would require Many years of profound peace to.put Government possession of the means•of doing it. On the other hand, should the war continue, there is an absolute certainty that the holder of the 5 per cents. would be enabled to re instate himself in the 3 per cents, at a very consi, derable profit. And , it is by such safe and - easy exchanges that many persons, possessed of funded property, are in the habit of increasing their income.'

They three _times routed the enemy -with the bayonet. Col. .Atkinspn.lett Wilkinson on the 13th. 'The enemy 'retired to a strong: position about three quarters of a Mile in the - rear, from which the Americans did not 'attempt to dislodge them, but returned to the battle ground, where they slept that night.- One of their pieces of artillery being dismounted by a cannon -shot, when they resumed the line of march, .they w ere compelled to leave it, and the British taking possession of it, from that circum stance claimed the victory. " A number of prisoners were taken by the 'Americans: General Covington was mortally wounded. Lieutenant Smith of the artillery Was killed. " General Wilkinson 'has been confined to his tent by sickness foy'some time past: The roads were bad in the extreme. " The'Northern Army, ender Gene, al ton; has gone into winter , quarteri at Plattsburg; the cavalry at Burlington. Gen. Wilki.►son was at St. Regis. " At Montpelier, Nfajor Snelling saw the sail ing-master of the Growler, who made his escape from Beaufort, near Quebec; on the 10th. lie informed, that all the American officers on parole at that place (the three Generals .excepted) vertt put in close confinement by order 61 Sir George Prevost, ,to be detained for the security of the 23 British hostages."

Courtois, salt -pet;-c manufacturer in Paris. Mary experiments have already been made on this-curious- matter, but its nature is not yet ascertained with certainty. It has properties so peculiar, that it is not known in what class of bodies it ought to be arranged. Its most remarkable proper t y i s t ? pro d uce a super b violet vapour by the action of a mild heat. At the ordinary temperature it has the appearance -of a metal; but about the 70th degree it melts, and rises inn violet vapour. Red heat, oxygen,. And carbon, do not act upon it. It is produced by mu riatic acid as well - as by phosphorus. It 'directly attacks the metals, and combines with them with out effervescence ) it combines in lik e - man-tierwith oxides, and forms with the m com bi nat i ons almost, all soltible in "Nvater..
