Nervous System.
THE train of melancholy disorders
A which affile the human frame, under the
denomination of Nervous Diseases, are the prin
cipal fourecs of human misery in the privation
of health. —Thole disorders proceed from such
an infinite variety and complication of caufcs,
as to render it impossible, if even it were always
necessary, to trace them to their true source.—
The effeds,however, arc but too well known,
and too fevercly felt amongst too great a portion
of mankind ; and to these effedls it may with
out exaggeration be asserted, that any remedy
superior or more celebrate fdr efficacy than
Dr. Solomon's Cordial Balm of Gilead, never has
been difeovered. In all delicate, weakly, and
relaxed constitutions, lowness of spirits, hypo
chondria, horrors, tremblings, weakness of fight,
Joss of memory, impaired vigour, tabes dorfalis,
nervous consumptions, and the numberless
symptoms of impaired apd tottering constitu
tions, whether arising from , life of inactivity,
intemperance,or inattention tp health. It cheers,
braces, and invigorates the whole nervous sys
tem, and gives new tone to all the vital func
tions,of which numberless instances Gan be a>
vouched. — l —:
The aftonilhipg demand,and general
approbation, which this Medicine has expert
cuced ; has induced many persons to publish
Medicines under names nearly Similar to the
above. Fetfons are therefore, refpedably in
formed, that Dr. Solomon's
CORDIAL BALM of GILEAD,
is fold in New-Hampshire by C.Peirce, only,
in Portfmouth— Pr«F tbree Dollars each Lcllle,
—A Certificate fig% by Dr. Solomon in his,
own hand writing, ^companies each bottle,
without which, it m'S & a counterfeit.
However loft the citizens of the li
mited States, particularly those of New-
England, are represented, with refpeft
to dispositions for promoting Litera
ture in general, by encouraging Publi
cations, &c.—lt is a remarkable fad,
and which is worthy of our citizens and
all others, that the BIBLE has, with
in three years past, been ten times, and
perhaps I might with fafety fay, ten
times ten, more enquired after, by the
Citizens of New-England, than was
ever before known. This isa demonstra
tion of the moralizing of mankind—
and that by a more thorough examina
tion of the tenets of the religion con
tained in this book, they doubtless be
come more substantial in their profef
fion, better pleased with , themselves,
and of course, better members of the
great family of mankind. The increas
ing attention also of our citizens to
School Education, is convincing proof
of our growing refpedability, worth &
importance. The inexhauftable source
of moral principles and examples iri
terfperfed through the New Testament,
must forever give it the pre-eminence
of school books for this purpose. The
plan is partly borrowed from an Euro
pean publication ; but it was never be
fore attempted in America.—With re,
sped to the Life of Joseph, it need only
be known to be admired. Phave found
from experience, that the greatest talk
of School-Masters is to make the lessons
of their pupils, a pleasure; rather than 2
taft ; which is seldom accompliffied by
confining them to a perpetual sameness
of reading. The Hiftory of Joseph Is
very well adapted to remedy this defe&.
And the pupil, who is not captivated
with the melody of its didion, as well
as the fubje& narrated, muff either be a
dunce, or an idiot. It is a scripture
fubjed : and its connexion with the
sacred volume can never be called in
question. The following are the conditions.

NEW-YORK, MARCH „.
Investigating the progress of the po
pulation of this State for 44 years,
commencing in 1756, and ending in
1790, and anticipating the probable
progress for 44 years more, from 1700
I to 1834, the following is the result : :
Jn 1756 this State contained 96,755
inhabitants ; equal to 2^ persons to a
square mile. .
In'7l, it contained 148,124; equal to 3, do.
Ln 1786, do. 238,897 / equal to do.
In 1790, do. 340,120 ; equal to 7| do.
Tn 1810 and 1834, if the principles on which
this'eftimate is grounded can be relied on,it will
Hand thus .•
1810, (or 20 years) it.will contain
9.80,240 inhabitants ; equal tQ22{ per
sons to a square mile, In 1834, (or
44 years, from .1790) it will contain
1,960,480 ; equal to 44; do. „, ~
Admitting therefore that this Rate,
contains 44,000 of square miles, equal
to. 28,160,000 acres, it gives 44; per
fans to the mile, which i§ nearly the
prefait Rate of the population of Con-,
nedicut, which contains 4674 square
miles, equal .to , 2,99,1,360. acres, oj,
45 persons to the . mile, averaging to
each individual about 14 acres of land,
or 98 acres to a family of seven persons,
or 84 acres to one of fix. , Allowing
for the persons who .inhabit pities the
average will, probably be, about 100
acres to eac^ family. A^refpeds thi|

with convenience as high as three mi|,

vantages/ the happy situation of our
interior navigation, the fertility of our

By the foregoing Statement it appears,
that from 1756 to 1771, (if years),
our numbers gained 51,349, dr 2962.
more than one naif % number in 1756.
From 1771 to 1785; 15 yeah, more,
we gained 90,773 or 16,711 more
than half in the ratio of doubling in
20 years. From,i7B6 to 1790, four

iJf the English embargo on Danish
and Swedish vessels is not taken off, it
is believed that Hanover & Hamburg
will be occupied by Pruflian troops.
The intelligence that an English fri
gate has cutout several Swedim vefiels,
from Norway, causes great fenfatioa
here, as it is considered as a formal rup.
ture between Englan I and Sweden.
Denmark, on the contrary, endeavours
to ward off the blow, and has nothing,
so much at heart as to keep on good
terms with England.

in Russia was felling at the last dates.

'The benefit which may be derived
from an .investigation of this nature is
that if our successive legislatures should
calculate their measures by anticipat
ing on so great a population in so short
a .period, their views would probably
partake of an enlarged and open poli*
cy ; laying a foundation in advance
(in imitation of the wife Penn, the
founder of Pennsylvania) calculated
to promote the happiness and profperh

25,000 on the average each year. Sup
pose in the year 1791 only 18,215 emi
grated,an accedion of one half was made
111 these 5 years, ^uppofe now th.tt the
stock of 1790 ffiould double by natural
increase in 20 years, and that on the
average 15,000 persons should emigrate
each year, the result will be as it is Rat
ed. Suppose again, that for the next
24 years no emigrations should be made
and that the existing number is 1810
should double by natural increase in
these 24 years, the result will also be as
it is Rated, which I am persuaded will
net differ materially from the event.
If however the emigrations should aver
age IQ,OOO persons annually for these
24 years, our number will then ftaud
two and a half millions.
