This has been evinced by therapist Sale of the Tickets, which, at such an eatly.period of the Lottery, cast only arise from the cir cumstances of there being so few Numbers (only .2,900), and. the probability of their being all sold long before the 10th of September, the flay of thawing.

No. 9, New Bridge-street, London HONOURED Sin, IBEG leave to inform you, that ever stncc the year 1790, I bad been afflicted with the Imes Venerea ; which, from its obstinately resisting every cstursc of medicine , prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, 'and un !ergoinv severalseVere courses of salivation, and twice dis changed from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring;•of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head, one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the. last.seven years ; left pact also two large nodes ou .it, was very much discoloured, and gave ine' such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in 'bed, as nearly to deprive me of rest ; iu this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. 3. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which 1 began to do on the 2fitb of May in the course of a fortnight I began to:receive benefit - -in little more than a mouth the ulcers on My bead and arms were s,iundly healed— soon after, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how ever, conr-iderahle discolouratipn in the skin, and pain its the bone 'of to Mt, Which, by the ble.sting of God, and a little longer perieverance..in your invaluable Medicine, sul4ssded ; the node's 'di - Sri - sing, the skin reg'ng its uctural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going. off.—l thus became, try gong libernl advice and medicine, perfectly'free from all my former complaints—have. recovered my former spirits avid strength, and am beCome jolly and fat, in which state bar ng oontinucd many months, to the astonishment of all who knew ate, I am at a loss in what terms to express toy gratitude, hut beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my ease as public as possible, as I shall on every occa ion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige, .

FOR THi?, SUN. MR. EDITOR, — Since I left Cambridge I have often considered the mode of teaching Mathema tics in that University ; in whiCh the Students who aim at the first honours, are compelled to read and study NEWTONJA P& NCIPI A, the most stupid, absurd, itnpertinent,.,au3 nonsensical pti`,- li ca tion that was ever written and published.' It is impossible for any ntintal' man to explain the Solar System—so the doctrine of Flnxions is w-holly unnecessary. It is the greatest waste of and of no earthly use. But what I have to propose is, that the Students in the last year be fore they take their. .Bachelor's degree, should be initiated in practical Astronwny, which is one 'of 'the most useful of the Sciences, and cannot be acquired elsewhere. It seems to me-l.kewiSe tha the arguments in the Schools relating to loathe. armies are totally useless, and ought to be abo , hailed ; for no kuowledge is acquired there, am it is a loss of time.

THE WEATHEE.—FrOM Mosdav, the 14th, to last Sunday, we had the most hot and sultry wea ther that has 'been remembered for some years, during an equal number of days. The Thermo meter in the shade, was frequently 96 to 95. Oa Sunday forenoon, we had heavy rain, but on Monday it'contin'ned sultry, and on Tuesday raia fell in torrents. Since then, it Kati been pleasant, , the mornings cool, and hot during the day, with'a fresh breeze. The rain on Tusesday laid . the 1 wheat flat in souse places where it is rather too luxuriant ; but we are told it has recovered itself.
