Dear Sir, No. 9, New Bridge-Street, London. IFEEL it a Duty incumbent upon me, to inform you of the very great and extraordinary Cure I have re ceived from your invaluable MediCine, L EAKE 's PATENT PILLS. About two years ago, I was attacked with a VENEREAL DISORDER, which I treated rather slightly for some time, but the Disease at length spreading all over my body, I was obliged to apply to the most eminent of the Faculty, but their assistance Abided only temporary relief I went through various Courses of Salivation, and from being rather of a corpulent habit; was reduced to a mere skeleton. The Ulcers that spread all over my Limbs rendered me a com plete OhjeCt, so that my Friend 4 despaired of my recovery. When brought to this situation, I considered death as inevi table, but a relation of mine commenting upon the many Cases in which your Pills had succeeded, I was induced to try a Box of them, which 1 thought rather relieved me, and by persevering for two or three months, and following your directions, I experienced the most unaccountable relaxation from pain, The sores gl•aclually subsiding ; I am now, thank God, perfectly recovered, and walking out daily: I doubt not, but one more box, which I think cautious to take, will establish my. health in its original state. It is with the most heart-felt gratitude, that I subscribe myself, Sir, your much obliged humble Servant Deansgate, Manchester, July 1, dot. W. lAARSON, P. S.

NAVIGATION LAWS OF GREAT BRITAIN, EXTRACTED FROM TUE ANTI-) ACOBIN REVLEW FOR MAY, 1804. Observations on the Importance ot a stria adherence to the Navigation Laws of Great Britain, Bvo. Pp. 16. Printed by Davison, tgot. Extract froin the Minutes ot the Proceedings of the Society of Ship Owners of Great Britain, instituted at London, A.D., 1802, Bvo. Pp. tz. Printed by Davison, 18,4. IN our last Number we reviewed a very able Pamphlet by Lord Sheffield, on the very important sub ject of the Navigation Laws, to which Great Britain is in disputably indebted for her Maritime and Commercial great ness, and consequently, in a great measure, for her Indepen dence as a Nation. The first of the two trads itOW 644 . us, relates to the same topic, and enforces the necessity of a stria adherence to these laws, from Ns ,, hich, of late years, some deviations have, for temporary purposes, been made. It was printed, as it appears by the Title-page, three years ago, but it never fell into our hands till the ot her day. It briefly traces the origin of Our Navigation Laws from the early period of the reign of our Second Richard, Co the pass ing of Lord Liverpool's Ad, generally called the Navigation Act, from the comprehensiveness of its provisions. It ap pears manifest to us, that for no purpose, either of Revenue, or of Political Accommodation to other States, should we depart from the strictprinciple of those laws ; but, that spe cial care should be taken, that we should carry on our own Trade in our own Ships, and give ever) , possible encourage ment to Fisheries of every description. " It is with the deepest regret," says the Author of the Observations, " the Shipping Interest of this Country ob serve, that the Suspension ot the Navigation Laws, during the last two years, has already been attended with serious in convenience and loss ; and they fear the continuance of it, un less those laws are again speedily permitted to have their tree and natural operation ; and if; by new regulations, or by any further relaxation of the present Navigation Laws, new and Foreign Competitors should be admitted to share in the ad vantages resulting from them, they apprehend that the Ma ritime Spirit of the Country will decline; that the Capital of British Owners will lie unemployed, or be employed use lessly, while the Shipping of Great Britain will lie rotting in her Harbours, and her Seamen emigrate to Foreign Countries in search of employment t, it is, therefore, particularly at this time, the interest of Great Britain, and the duty of her Government, to encourage her Maritime Pursuits. The events of the late War show that many Nations look with a jealous eye on the superiority we have gained by our Carrying Trade, and that they are ready to Use every effort to ,partici pate iii the benefits of our Navigation, and t o rival us, if possible, on our native element. To counteract these ellorts with success, we must not lose: the recollection, that, with out an extensive Naval Commerce, carried on in British Bot toms, we can neither rear nor retain our Seamen, the grand support of our present pie-eininence, nor preserve our Country from falling even below -the level of surrounding Nations." • We trust this truth will never be lost sight of for a mo ment ; but that in this respedi; .as in most others, we may ever continue to walk - in the good old path of our ancestors. The Association of owners of British Ships, for the preserva tion of their rights, recommended at the close of tins tract, was formed in iSoz; and the second Pamphlet before us contains an account of their proceedings at one of their Meetings in March 1804. It there appears that they had applied -to the King's Ministers to prevent any direct tax upon Shipping, as having a tendency to add materially to the distresses already experienced by the Shipping interest. To this part of the subject we have not paid sufficient atten tion to enable *us to speak with decision, on the policy or impolicy of such a Tax. But, from the calm and tem perate language of these Gentlemen, and from the nature of their arguments, we have but little doubt that they had good grounds for their application, which, however, dues not ap pear to have been successful. The) here complain of tne continued suspension of the Navigation Ad, and of the Emi gration of our Seamen, many of whom they state to be in the Service of the American Stares or in that ot our Enemy. This surely is an object of most serious consideration, and we agree with the S hip-owners in thinking, that a necessity subsists tor a Parliamentary Inquiry into time actual State attire Navigation of Great Britain. Their Committee also preferred a com plaint to the Board of Trade, of the inconvenience arising to the Ship-owners, from the obligation imposed upon them to take out Licences, and give bonds to the Commissioners of the Customs, on account of the particular construction of their Ships. In their Petition to the Board, they indicated a means by which this inconveniencr. might be removed, and without any injury to the Revenue ; but the Board rejected the prayer of their Petition. Some other grievances at in ferior moment occupied the attention of the Committee, who adopted the necessary measures for removing them. The Thanks of the Society were, most properly, voted to Lord Shellield, for his Lordship's Pamphlet, reviewed hi our last Number. This Association appears to us likely to be pro duttive of much by watching over one of the most tin ali" by calling the attention portant interests of the Country , of the 4.egislature and of the Public, to any attempt that may be made to trench upon the principle s et ;isle t - 11 ,f our Navigation Laws.
