HONOUBSD SIR, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues 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- Vlarged from the Hospital with li ttle relief, would a pp ear to oe of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year I , II Y eisorder had got to each a head, as nearly to put a period my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head, 0 0e en each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful. manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been sn a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave ate such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in bed, 4 l nearly to deprive me of rest ; is 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 26th o. May; in the course of a fortnight I began to receive benefit—in little more than a Month the ulcers on my headand arms were soundly healed— toon 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 blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus because, by Your liberal advicr „and medicine, perfectly free from all my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a lid strength, and am become jolly and fat , in which s tate havin g continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew Ite, 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 will greatly oblige, sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant, ALEX.

At an Agricultural Meeting, held at Ayles bury, on Saturday last, a Petition was voted to Parliament, praying for Retrenchment of Expen diture and Parliamentary Reform. SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—The following cala mitous event occurred at Mr. Pilcher's mill, at River, near Dover, on Friday last :—The millers perceiving that something impeded the working of the mill, one of them went to the top in order to ascertain the cause, when (distressing, to re late) he beheld his son, William Croft, a youth of about 13 years old, entangled in the works; the utmost expedition was : used to stop the machi nery, which, when effected, the unfortunate lad was taken out, a dreadful spectacle, his head and legs being crushed in pieces. It is conjectured that the sleeve of his gabardine haying been caught by . a key on the spindle of the spur wheel, he had been drawn by it between the works. The body was conveyed to River Workhouse, where the Coroner's Inquest, held on it on the following day, returned a verdict of "Accidental Death."—The father has worked in the mill for 25 years, and is much respected in his station ; and what adds to the calamity is, that another of his,sons lost his life about four years since at the same mill, by falling into the flour bin, in which he was suffocated before assistance could be af forded to him.—(iCentish Gazette.) CAUTION AGAINST WEARING COPPER IN SHOES. —Three respectable individuals have recently lost their lives in this neighbourhood, from the mischievous practice - of wearing sheet copper in the heels of their shoes to keep their feet warm and dry, as it often happens that the inner sole gives way, in which case the perspiration of the feet acts upon the copper, and communicates to the 'system an active and dangerous poison.— , (Sussex Advertjser.) d 1 rss ;IF' .'ll PUBLICATIONS.

INTELLIGENCE.-=The High She riffs, we learn, have received a letter, intimating the intention of the Judges 111‘CLELAND and its'oonE to arrive in this city on Friday next, to open the Special Commission. Opinions are va rious with regard to the circumstance of a general gaol delivery for the city: That the Commission will be opened, and one or two trials proceeded. into, we have no doubt, but it is improbable that the minor offenders, who constitute the greater part of those in custody, will be arraign ed. A long panned of Jurors for the City arid County have been summoned, and we learn that attendance will be enforced under heavy penal ties.—(Cork Mercantile Chronicle.) A well informed gentleman, who, in the early part of last week, arrived at Brighton from France, states that great political dissatisfaction prevailed in that country, and that he expected some serious commotion would speedily be the consequence. — (Sussex Advertiser.) THE SUN OF SCIENCE, LITERATURE, AND THE ART'S.—No. I. At a period like the present, when a noble spirit for the cultivation of Literature and Science' has diffused itself throughout the whole of Britain, when Weekly Papers devoted solely to the support of the liberal Sciences and general Literature, are rapidly spreading around us, we have thought it would afford our Readers pleasure, combined with valuable information,-- should we occasionally set apart a portion of our columns for communications, of this description, These will contain every Paper which shall be distinguished, either for the new views it dis plays, or for. its . arguments, leading to new in`- vestigation. We solicit therefore the contribti dons of men of Science and Literature upon every subject which can be supposed interesting to every Reader of a Magazine.—Discoveries Tor the extension of our Manufactures—Accounts of . new Inventions—Popular Descriptions of Dis eases, or Discoveries in Anatomy, Botany, and in eve'ry other science, will find a ready insertion in the " SUN of SCIENCE." To those whose in terest it is to be read, our columns will afford every facility. We have thus been induced to devote occasionally a portion of our columns to Science and the Arts, from being convinced of their importance, whether viewed through the speculum of speculation, philosophy, or practi cal utility. If the only aim of science was the explanation of the phenomena of the universe-- was only to explain the wonders and make ma nifest the beauties and majestic order of the starry heavens :—the teeming earth and the briny ocean, it might then be looked upon as be fitting the searchers after amusement, and the re ligious enthusiast only ; but it would be of no practical benefit during our terrestrial wander- ings, it would assist inpreparing us for our Let ter home, but would in no way improve the com forts of our present habitation. But such is not the solitary aim of the philosopher ; his object is to improve our present condition, whilst he points out the glories of the future. True science beams on the " to-day" and these beams are re flected back and illuminate the path to the re gions of the endless to-morrow. With this im pression we commence our labours, firmly con fiding, that in this age of scientific and literary research, we shall not fail of the approbation of our friends. Article I.—On the Destruction: of the Effluvi4, arising from Soap and other ManUfactories where Animal Matters are employed. The nuisance arising from some of these Manufactories where animal matters are employed is, in populous neighbour hoods,. dreadfully. annoying, Those of cart -grease, Soap;. -sbe. --are only a -few 'nitwit"; the number. Any, simple plan, therefore, which shall tend to the destivction of these fumes, by an effective economical process, will be valua ble ii.formation—will be conducive both to the interests of the manufacturer and to his suffering neighbour.—The plan adopted for this purpose by Messrs. Colchester, soap-manufac turers, of Ipswich, is distinguished {or its scientific simplicity. The effluvia arising from animal matters is rarely in such quan tities as to be offensive, except when they are heated. This in the process of soap-boiling is' a necessary part of the operation, _to render the soap of a proper dodsiUtency.—Fire is therefore employed under iron-pans-; and, during the concentration of the soap, the fumes arise.. To destroy these, fumes, Messrs. Colchester have simply caused the ash-pit of the fUrnacenf the soap-pan-to communicate by a wooden trough with the surface of the, heated soap in the pan, which pan is slightly covered with a wooden moveable cover, open on , one side to admit the air.—Tire whole, therefore, of the current of atmospherie air necessary for the supply of the coals burnt in the furnace passeS over the surface of the melting-oils, and the animal fumes are thus drawn in the current under the furnace, where they are immediately destroyed, and, by their combustion, increase the' power of the coals consumed. The result is most satisfactory,— ' the moment the cover is on, all trace of the offensive fuMes immediately disappeats. 'We should hope Messrs. Colchester may be induced to favour the public with a more detailed ac count of their plan. lArt. 2.—On the Manufacture of Ink. With a bad pen, and bad ink, Pope could not have transla. ted his Iliad, nor Newton written his Principia. For our own parts, -we always find, that however full our brains may be with " thoughts that breathe, and words that burn" yet - still, without tolerable specimens of these " res necsatiw," they issue more even than commonly "sans taste, sans every thing." To keep our friends as free as possible from this evil of p. lite rary life, we have gleaned the recommendations of several phi losophers for the Composing of this potent fluid. As to the Ina nufaeturing of a On, we recommend Mr: Millington, and other distingultahed members of the mechanical world, to, turn their attention to the construction of a portable. pen-making ma chine. - Although the receipts' for making writing-ink are numerous and varied, yet that of Pr. Lewis, we find by experience, is to be preferred as to the !proportions, for the constituents cannot, vary.—For one quart of ink, the following it-;Tedients. are ne cessary, which may be all procured for one shilling 3 oz. of finely powdered galls. I do. of sulphate of iron (green vitriol.) • 1 do. of logwood chips. I .do. of powdered gum-arabie. And a quart of the softest water procurable ; these should be admixed in a stone or glass vessel; the mouth of which unist be only covered with a piece of porous gauze; and the liquidrnust be repeatedly shaken. To prevent it from becoming mouldy,Pro fessor Hoffman recommends half a dozen cloves to be pounded with the gum arabie before admixture.- : Professor Srande, of the Royal Institution, directs the rnenstruam used to be half water and half vinegar ; the " quality of the ink," he observes; " is materially improved by dissolving a•. stick of Indian ink, and ten grains of corrosive sublimate, in every quart." The: addition of a portion of sugar . renders ink slow in; drying—ad= vantage is taken of this property, where numerous copies of the same letter or document are required ; when the characteis of old viriting nre rendered illegible by time or by fraudulent meaks, they may be restored by penciling them over -with a solution of Prussiate of potas.s, and then a dilute solution of sulphuric, or muriatic acid. Art. 31--On the Native Country of the P r ot toe,. This plant, the So lanum Tuberesurn of Botaiiieir, grows wild in the eaviions of Lima, in Peru, and fourteenleagues from Lima on the coast ; it has been found It is cultivated by the Indians of both countries, who cola, it Pap 4. p grows spontaneously among the rocks on Mctuti..,t r ideo ' and in the near Santa Fe de Bogota • ' the wildjalsritshow ever produce oily very small roots of. a bitter taste.—(Journal of Science.) It is singular that all the other members of the species.or so lanuin, of which this is a member, are of a poisonous ikattue.. Mr. Knight, the distinguished President of the Herticultuial Society, has supplied the long desideratum with regard to the seeding of early potatoes. The potatoe continues in perfection shout 14 years : it should then be again raised from seed ; but those of the early sort rarely bloom ; the . seed is procured . in Vie common way by chance seeds from plants of the later va. riety. The preternatural formation of the tuberose roots is the cause, according to Mr. Knight, 'of their not seeding. He gives the, following as the mode to be adopted to obtain a cer tain supply of seed : The potatoe sets must be plepted on lit tle heaps of soil, with a stake in the middle; whet', the plants are about four inches high, the earth is to be gn ashed - away by a strong current of water, so that the fibrous root.i&s•me enter the soil—these are totally different from the fibres' Atinishing theyotatoe, and when this plan is followed, ntrnaefaus blossom never fail to appear, which furnish abundanee of seed, and thus new and in:proved varieties ck obbsipo Art. 4.. Ripening of Wall*uit. It is a law which chemists have discovered a,rid enrolTd the code of nature, that " The deoper the colour of an opaque body the greater is the rise of temperature which it experiences; or in other words, the more heat does it absorb, by exposure to the Sun's rays or other- source of heat.'?"l.lus black, be comes the hottest in a given space of time, then blue, green, Ted, yeflow and white, in the order given ; this has been de monstrated by the experiments of Franklin, and Davy, the illustrious playmate or the lightning, and monarch of the fire damp. Taking the hint from this page of philosophy, Mr. if. Davies, of Slough, haS published the result of an experiment for facilitating the ripening of wall...fruit, by covering . the wall with -black paint. The experhnent was tried on a vine, and it is stated that the weight of fine grapes gathered from the black ened part of the wall was 201 b. 10oz. while the plain part yielded only 71b. loz. ; being little more thamone-.third of the other.- The fruit on the blackened portion was also . much finer, the bunches larger, and ripened better than on that which was left plain—the wood of the vine was likewise more vivo rows and more covered with leaves.
