The Gout is supposed incurable, as all other di's orders were said to be (which we know not how to cure) until radical and safe remedies were discovered . to cure them. It has been thought dangerous to cure or pfevent the return of the Gout. But if tile cause is removed,. all danger must be done away, which this T.udure (taken as diiected, and rt;ginien followed as prescribed) will completely etlect,, as is proved, by many respedable characters in London and else where, who have long, and still do experience the has piest ehetls.of, whose letters, verifying the fads, Mr. Dix has Nvit:l their authof.v to publish, and to refer Ladies and Gen tlemen to.the writers, who will answer any particuPars in • person. Personal references must surely be more convincing and satisfactory than the publication of letters, which, by some, may be suspected as fabricated for the sole •purpose of re commending-the Nhedicinr.:s. Therefore he prefers refering the Aft: r iled to original letters in his possession, and to the j'iitients themselves, who are too re4peclable to be suspected of duplicity. Those who- sec them in petted ,health, and cojoymg the free use of their limbs, must be convinced 0.. The -powerful and salutary eflicacy'of these Medicine:. Facts are stubborn things, and will conquer every prejudice. The Gout has been said to he a salutary disease, and supposed those v,•110 know not the cause-, nor now TO ,:ure or prevent i 0 to keep orf all other complaints; the •W titer begs leave, 'with due deference, to dill:er irons such as are of this opi nion, since this assertion has ,never been proved. That . the coil:ray is the fad, is ,d.dly proved. How many, Gouty Patients do we not see and hear of suffering under a complication of disorders; such as Rheumatism, Scurvy, bilious and Nervous A fiLetuns •' Hiccups, Suflocation,• Heart-bunt, Head-ach, Pains in the Stomach and Bowels. A loriinating front the same cause as the Gout. All which these Tinctures will effeetually remove and prevent, if taken as-direetcd, and regimen followed as prescribed, and no pa titnt need fear any subsequent ill eftec.ts from the use of this Medicine, which cannot injure the most delicate constitution, it Taken as direCted. It may not be improper to declare there is 09,Mercury in these Medicines, knowing that some pre pared with that pernicious drug, are recommended for. the Gout ; Mercury to a Gouty Patient, is as deadly poison, .:.tire to injure. These Medicines will keep any length of lime in any climate.

THE SUN. •OLLM QUIS DICER.I FALsUM AlflitAr LONDON, OCTOBER 7, 18 or. 'E have it in our power to inform the Public, that the PRELIMINARIES Of PEACE between this Country and France were received at Paris on Sa turday the 3d inst. in the evening. We farther learn, that the Ratification, which is delayed only by the necessary forms of office, may be expelled in a day or two. THE London Gazette of last night contains a Proclamation convening Parliament•for the dispatch ot.' Business on the zgth inst. The Preliminaries of Peace will then be submitted to both Houses of Parliament for their approbation. •• WE are very anxious that the Terms on which Ministers have concluded the Peace should be as much canvassed as possible—because the more they are considered, the more satisfadory will. they ap pear to the Public.—lf we have not retained of our. Conquests all that the most sanguine might have expeded, we have not only -obtained that, in ex change for theM; for our Allies, which is highly honourable to us, but we have in relinquishing many of these possessions, rendered the duration of Peace • much more probable.—ln retaining the Island of Ceylon, we have kept a most valuable possession--' valuable not only from its 'Exports, but as affbrd ing that of which we have hitherto always so much felt the want in that quarter, an excellent Pori. --In the Island of Trin;dada, we have preserved 1 one of the most important islands In the , West 'lndies, and the possession of which gives security to all our Dominions in-that part of the World.— With icspett to The Cape of Good Hope, if we had retained it-=it would have occasioned a heavy Ex pence without affording any:return ; and by the stipulation which has, been made, we have all the advantage which even its possession could give— that of making it a Port for our East India Ships— with thiS further advantage, (and which we did not formerly possess,) that this right will now be con - firmed and secured to us, and. will not rest, as. for merly, upon' the will of an Independent Power. But the most important consideration, in reflea ing upon the Terms of Peace, is that which belongs to Egypt.—ln every thing which relates to this objeet we have been completely successful.—Our Arms have conquered that Country, and by Treaty the French have relinquished its possession.—The Triumph of the British Arms in Egypt, when the., numbers of .our Army and those of the French are considered, will ever reflea the greatest credit on our Military Force, and redound to the honour of our Countiy. Had the Treaty of El_Arish been acceded to, it is possible that BONAPARTE, think ing as he did, that KLEBER was not reduced to the necessity of making such a Treaty, would not have yielded up that possession without ano- ther Struggle :—but we have now convinced the French Nation, that it was impossible to retain it against the Arias of Great Britain, and we have no hesitation in stating that it is to the Success of our Arms in that quarter, to an Expedition invariably, reprobated by the Opposition in our own Country, that we now owe Peace. • The restitution of Malta to its former Possessors must be perfedly satisfadory to the People of this Country—lt is just that this restitution should be made, and it is enough for us that it cannot be used as a step from . France to Egypt. We see in the terms of Peace the : strongest symptoms of sincerity on both sides.—The com plete renunciation of Egypt by FranccHthe liberal cessions which we have made—the restitutions which, through us, have been granted to our Allies, leave nothing to barter or to Niggle about— It is a Peace formed upon great, broad, and intelli gible principles. •We have heard, in the course of - the Negotiation, some sanguine, and we think very ill-judging men, talk of Peace upon the principle of the Uti possitietis. Peace upon such a basis might halie been re presented as brilliant and triumphant, when we consider the Conquests which we have made during the War, hut would it have been lasting? Or Would there have been that reasonable ground of security which we find in that which has been concluded ? Every thing which has been stated by Ministers as essential to us in the course of this arduous con test, has been obtained.—lf there are any who think our concessions have been too large, let them refleet that they have been made upon the principles of good faith, of honour and of liberality, and there is no sound Politician who will not, think that with all our extensive and increasing trade, a few Colonies arc well sacrificed to such considerations. Upon the whole we are confident the People will feel deeply indebted to the Ministers who have brought the War to so happy a termination, as they will to those who have so ably and so gloriously conducted the most arduous contest in which the Nation ever was engaged; and we sincerely offer up our Prayers that nothing may intervene to cloud the bright pro spea we have before us—that durable Peace may mature the admirable plans of the late Minister for the improvement of our Financial System, and that this Empire may not only continuo to retain its great and pre-eminent station, but increase in all those considerations which can render us happier in ourselves, and procure for us the respect and admi ration of other Nations. WE last night roccived Paris Papers of a date one day latet than those which came to hand yester day morning, and which appeared in our Paper of the Evening. The Packet in which the last Papers came over, brought Dispatches for 'M. 0 -fro, but as no Messenger came over with them, a doubt was entertained at Dover whether they brought the Ra tification. Rejoicings are however stated to have taken place at Calais on the - Ratification, an account of which was reported to have been received by Telegraph.. The Paris journals ' - re themselves destitute of intelligence. They contain a detail of the Helvetic Constitution, and of another Constitution, in a dif ferent quarter of the world, that given by To us- SA I NT tO St. Domingo. NEITHER the Hamburgb Mail due on Sunday, nor that which became due this morning, had ar. rived when our Paper was put to Press. DOTTR, Oct. 6. A French Boat arrived about otie o'clock th l ' afternoon, with Dispatches for M. OTTO ; but °, Messenger coming, it is doubtful if it brought the Ratification of the Preliminaries.—The people 0 the Boat report, that Intelligence of, the Ratifica' tion was received by the Telegraph at Calais Yo' terday, and that the greatest rejoicings took 00 there in consequence. NORTHAMPTON, OCT. 3. THE glorious and unexpeded intelligence of 'J Preliminaries of Peace being signed, was coma': nicated to the' inhabitants of this place abou` ten o'clock last night, by some Manchester Geo' tlemen, who, finding a difficulty in proeurini horses, told Mr.' HorKitis, of the Angel Inn, I' he would contrive to forward them on their journet they would shew him a Gazette Extraordinary/ which would richly reward him for his trouble, ao' l then. read it to him, giving him At the same time 'copy of Lord HAWEEPURY'S Letter to the LW' MAYOR. Late as it was, the intelligence was too Universally important to be concealed for a momenr , and in a quarter of an hour the .acceptable tiding' were announced to the- whole town by ringing o' bells, loud acclamations, and every noisy demon stration of joy. SALISBURY, OCT. 3. first intelligence of signing ,the Preliminaries of Peace was received here by a circuitous roure , and a mode a little extraordinary, viz, by a wag gon from Devizes. Carpenter, the Devizes carr_i4r) announced to us on Friday, that as he was quitting that town in the Morning,. the bells were ringing► and preparations were hastily making to celebrate 'the auspicious event, which had been communicated by express from Mr. ADDiNGTON. In,the evening there was no confirmation of the news, and it began to be doubted ; but the'next morning brought us 1110 Gazette-Extraordinary, and a genera' joy then per vaded the city. Flags were hoisted, the bells were rung,. arid guns fired. Capt. WYNDHAM'S Troop of Yeomanry Cavalry paraded, with the three Compa nies of the Sarum Armed Association, the latter firing several vollies ; and in the evening there tvas a brilliant and general illumination, with tire-works) iSze COLCHESTER, OCT. 4. THE following General Orders were given . o 0 here this day :, • GENERAL ORDERS. Lord CORNWALLIS direas that the following Extraa of a Letter from the Adjutant. General to hi's Lordship, should be inserted in the General Or ders of this Distria : " I have received the Commander in Chlers clireaion to express to yoUr Lordship the satisfaction he has derived from the appearance of cleanliness, health, and good vide', whi al generally prevails in the different. Corps Avhwik he haaie 0} 1 : portunity of seeing, during his recent tour in the District wide , your Lordship's command. There are, however, so:lie reo points to which His Royal Highness desires to call your Lord• ship's attention. His Royal Highness was much pleas.o to observe a.general conformity to the King's regulations in the movemeiv of the Infantry, both to the length of their step all" _the cadenced time of their march. - This great essential (on which all combinations of manoeuvres entirely .depenti/ being obtained, His Royal is persuadevi that the at tention of the General Officers commanding Brigacies, and 0 ' the Commanding . Officers of Regiments, cannot fail to quire what more is necessary, to ensure precision and cor rectness in the movements of the Corps under their respeefor C Commands. • His Royal Highness derived great satisfaction from the appearance of the 49th Regiment, after the several distin imbed services in which it has lately been employed, His Royal Highness has commanded. me to express to you r Lordship the favourable impression he has received from ttl°, appearance of the. three Squadrons Of:the 13th Regiment o' Light Dragoons, which he saw on Lenden Heath; and like •t; wise his perfect approbation of the appearance of the sever al Corps of the Royal .Artillery, which fell under his obsel' vation, (Signed) ".H ARRYCA L VE RT, A. Yesterday noon His MAJESTY came to Towo from Windsor, and held a Council at BUckinglii o House, at which His Grace the Duke of PoRTLANvi Earls CHATHAM and ST. VINCENT, Lords ELDO I4 ' HAWKESBURY and PELHAM, Messrs. ADDING' OSP YORKE and FAWKENER ; and Sir S. LoTTERBLI , attended as Clerk of the Council ; and at halt past three His MAJESTY returned to Windsor. We have authority to state, that the a , sertion our Paper of yesterday, that M. OTTO was in, formed of the Capitulation of A/exan.:ria at the time he signed the Preliminaries, and cummoniCatea it to Lord HAWKESBURY, IS totally destitut 01 foundation. We have good reason to b:.licve tl l3 e the French Government had no expectat on -Zl l " t i this Event would take place for some time, ;O . ' we are confident that M. Orro had no intno•-. tion even of the probabitity of it ; he team( i; from the Public Papers the next day, and applica for a permission to forward this intelligence to Paris, which was granted to him, A vessel which arrived from Calais l mentions that the account of the Peace had been received there with the greatest rejoicings. At Chichester there were great rejoicings on re"! ceiving the intelligence of the signing the Pfei;nl,- naries of Peace.
