In the spring of last year only 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 nut in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and rove me.such excruciating pain, particularly when warm itt li e d, as nearly to deprive me of rest; is this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. 3. "Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take voter Lemke's Patent Pills, which I begat, to dome the 21th of May; in the course of a - fortnight 1 began to receive benefit. -in little more than a month the ulcers on my head and aims were soundly healed— soon after, the sores on my legs healed also; l e a r i nx , how ever, considerable discolouration in the skin, and pain in the hone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin rte . g its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going orf.—l thus became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my Cornier complaints—have recovered my former spirits ;yid str e ngth, and ant become jolly and fat, in which statebav ng 'coutinticd many months, to the astonishment of all who knew ate, 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 ocea ion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige, Sir, your F;rateful, obedient, very linmbleservant.

AND MISS BLACK.— Friday afternoon the funeral of this truly unfortu nate family, who perished from suffocation, caused by the burning of their horse in Bermondsey street, took place. The bodies lay at the Anchor and Eight Bells publieshouse in that street, round which, as the - hour drew near, several thousand persons were assembled. At three o'clock the pro cession set out in the following manner Undertaker, as Conductor, two Mutes, with staves muffled, sasnes and hat bands, next the body of Mr. Black, foll Owed by that of Mrs. Black, and then Their daughter, the two first covered with black palls, and the last with a white one, each borne by four bearers in black. The infant tliat was saved alive at its unfortunate mother's breast, cat ried in the arms of a nurse, following as chief . mourner, next the father And mother of Mr. Black, the father and mother of Mrs. Black, and Miss Rebecca Manton, Mrs. 'Black's sister, who was so happily delivered from sharing the samefate. As the melancholy procession passed; all eyes were bedewed with tears at the untimely fate of so young- and so respected a_conple. The three cur fins were buried in one grave, in Bermimdsey nearly facing their late residence. THE TAVITOCK CANAL. tAvt•erock, Juit 25.--4)11 itisday List, most novel 411 d pleasiligevremGuy, took plAcc here, .. ... in consequence of the Completio'A of that artlitOM anti laborious nutlet taking, the l'aVistock Canal, a concern which reflects Ito k'ss ctetlit on the en- terprising spirit ot ;Is projectors, than it clot.s on the patient perseterance ot the adventurerS in, and supporters of that stupendous work. It was begun in the year 1803, and has been continued with un remitting assiduity until the accomplish ment of it, which hob occupied a period bf font.- teen years, during which - the Most intrediblet.iter tions have been made, at an eiPenee of nearly 70,0001:to complete the grand object of the Com pany, in opening a communication by . water, front the navigable part of the river Tamar at Morwel ham quay, bclonging to Messrs. Gill and Co., trf the town of 'faviStock, thereby reducing the rate of carriage full one half, and increasing the fa cility of the conveyance of =nave to this town and the surrounding country, which will be the means of contributing greatly to*the improvement of the lands in the neighbourhood, of which the Duke of Bedford is the principal proprietor ; in short, the advantages derivable from this import ant' undertaking are incalculable, and there is every reason hope, that not only Tavistock and its vicinity will be benefited by it, but that the port of Plyrizooth will also feel the good effects resulting from the increased inland navigation thus created in its neighbourhood. It is but jus tice to observe, that that distinguished nobleman the Duke of Bedfotd, who is the proprietor of one-eigth of this concern, has contributed most liberally towards the support of. it, in giving up to the Company the whole of the land through which the canal is cut without remuneration. The morning was ushered in by the ringing of bells, and at 17alf-patt seven o'clock a gun was flied at the Canal basin as a signal for the boats and parties-to prepare for the descent of the Canal and passage ot the Tunnel. At eight o'clock be tween three and four hundred persons of all ranks embarked in nine boats constructed of Sheet iron, and, Irons the excellent arrangements of the Com- Mittee of Management, the whole party proceeded in tir , :ir aquatic subtetraneotts exclusion widt the „ureatest order and regularity, under a salute of 21 guns, accompanied by a band ot music, flags, and banners hearing appropriate inscriptions, to gether with a company of miners and others dressed uniformly, with ribbons in their hats, laving on them the Words " success to the Taci• stock Canal ;" on arriving at the north-end of the Tunnel cut under ;Norwell Down, the party prepared to take leave of day-light for about -two hours ; there were but few whose fears induced them to quit the boats, and the rest, to the amount of more than three hundred, entered this mono- mem of industry and perseverance, with rather awful and some ,hat sublime sensations ; the ti midity of the Ladies was however soon relieved by the reverberating sound of the music from the band and vocal performers in the several boats, which contributed much to dispel the gloom that otherwise might have reigned, and to lessen the tediousness of a voyage of a mile and three quar ters underground beneath a canopy of solid rock, at the depth of 450 feet from the summit of the hill. On emerging from the southern month of the tunnel, the, grotesque appearance of the party (who had p?vided themselves in various ways against the occasional droppings from the roof of the Tunnel) furnished matter ot amusement to the spectators assembled from all parts of the sur rounding country, and by -whoin they were re ceived with loud and repeated cheers. The pleasurable sensations excited by the ap proach of daylight, and at length on again enjoy ing open sunshine, were indescribable. On re landing, another salute of 21 guns was fired and the operations of' the inclined plane machinery (which has been erected to convey goods from the quay to the level of the Canal, which is about 280 feet above that of the river Tamar) were dis played, after which the spectators walked down to Morwhelhani, where an ordinary was provided at the inn, and refreshments - for the friends of the proprietors ot the quay ; Mr. Gill presided at the dinner, and a number of appropriate and loyal toasts were drank, amongst others the following: The King and Constitution. • The Prince Regent. Good Ministers and Loyal Subjects. The Duke and Duchess of Bedford ; with all the branches of that noble family. Success to tneTavistoth Mineral Canal, and may it prove a lasting hetiefit to the Propriecors and the neighbourhood. Success to Mining. Success to Agriculture and Commerce. In the evening dancing commenced, and the day closed without the occurrence of the smallest ac cident to embitter the recollection of it ; the greatest "praise is due to the company for the ac commodation afforded to at least five thousand persons, and for the order and regularity with which every (blur; was conducted ; the polite at tention of airs. Gill to her friends merits their warmest acknowledgments. The dhy will form an era in the Commercial History of Tavistock, and will Jong he remembered, not only for the impor taut eveni which it was intended to commemorate, but for the harmony and general satisfaction that , prevailed. Yesterday evening as the PRI&TCH REdENTWas going through Pall Mall, his carriage unfortu nately run over a child, who was, by the order of his Royal Highness, taken under the imniedia►e care of an eminent surgeon, and, we are happy to 'state, no•danger is apprehended from this tic cittent, COMMITTEE OF FINANCE. The Sixth Report (tf tikeeleet C'ennitittee oia hnance was delivered yesterday morning : it re lates entirely to. the N.aeal Service. The Com mittee enter into a general view of the great heads under which the Ettituates ate prepared, and af.; , . tcrwards some examination of the more detailed emt. 1. The Wear and Tear.- , --A• greater naval esta; blishment was to be expected than at any, former peace, mid if the force intended to be employed shall answer the general wants, your Committee See no reason to apprehend that it will in any dew• gree exceed theM. 'There is another considerate tion also; which, even if the Same extent of duties only existed;woold account for the employment ()la somewhat ..,rater number of. men 'than on ~,• .• former 'occasions. The other maritime nations have, during the last 25 years, gone on increas ing the Size of their ships, which has of course obliged this country to act upon a corresponding; systeni. The classes of 64 and 50-gun ships have almost disappeared, and haye been replaced ill other maritime countries by ships of 74 guns ; their frigates and sloops have been enlarged, and it is adviseable that our ships of war should not be in any degree inferior to the ships of other Powers. This involves an increase in the coat.. plenteOts of the ships in commission. The amount of force afloat fur the year is as much reduced as could be reasonably expected. 2. THE ORDINAEY ES'ilMATE.—Acinziralty Of fice.-;-The emoluments of the Secretaries appear not to go beyond the importance of their situa tions, and of the ability requited fOr filling them, with the exception only of ,an increased allowance during war. This, in the opinion of your Com mittee, is founded on an erroneous principle, and leads to diffictilty and inconvenience in practice. It can hardly be supposed that persons in the situ ation Of Secretaries to the Admiralty, can turn any occasional leisure which a state of peace may af ford to then), to any purpose-profitabie io a peer). niary sense; and the great difference which may exist in the extent-and nature of the wars in which this country May be engaged, renders that which in one case would be inadequate (lithe mere scale of labour is to be the measure of salary), in other instances excessive. Your Committee therefore concur with the opinion expressed in former Re ports, and upon which the House and the Govern- , ment have acted in almost every other instance, that this distinction is highly objectionable, and ought to be abolished. It is impossible fin your Committee to enter into minute details of the ha siness .transacted in the Admiralty Office ; but they have been assured, and they see no reason todoubt the assertion, that hitherto the diminution ii) the number of clerks has kept pace with the diminu , tion of labour in that department. Navy Pay- Office.-- -, The Committee hope that a very considerable reduction in the establishment will be deemed practicable. Navy Othce.—The Committee are far from be ing satisfied that so many Commissioners of the Navy are requisite in time of peace, even with the addition of labour which the Transport Service has imposed- on this department. It appears to your Committee (although a contrary opinion is entertained in the Office), that the three divisions of the General Board, consiathig one of tour Com missioners, and. the others of three, might each. he [educed to two meinhers without inconvenience to the public service, and that the difficulties stated against this proposition are merely technical. Greenwich hospital.—The Hospital and Cheat, notwithstanding the immeose claims made roma them, have been able to accomulate a capital ht time Funds of not less than 3.760,0001.3 per cents. But as the peace diminishes the priocipal sources of revenue, while the claims ()retire Hospital are largely increased, it is clear that the funded pro- , perty cannot be expected to last beyond a limited number of years, and that then a very great and nual expellee will fall upon tire public. Since 1814, a system of registry of seamen has been adopted, and of the 32,000 out-pensioners now on the hooks, not less than from 12 to 15 thousand are capable of active service afloat, anti a further number might he found useful tor shore or harbour service. The Committee recommend Government to pay a Minot e practical attentiort to the operation of this part of the system. ' Buildings and Repairs of Ships.Considgrable exertions are now making fora complete, Lion of the fleet by the constrtietion of new ships, and by thoroughly repairing all such as at e judg ed to be in a state sufficiently good'to Warrant so great an expense ; and they think that there is no object upon• which the House will be less dispos ed-to call for a parsimonious ellpentliture than 011 this. Works in the Yards.—'-Tile Committee approve highly of the policy of constructing the Arsenal. of Sheerness on ‘a large and sp,tentatie arrange ment, capable of ansviering the public wants. at the'cotintty, affortlitig a safe anchorage for the or dinary in time of peace, and a convenient port of outfit and refit for squadrons ttnßloyvii i ts ,she Ninth Sea. They speak warmly of that great nio tional work the breakwater in'elytnouth Sound
