Just received from Lee & Co's. Patent and Family Medicine Store, Baltimore, and for sale by MACBEAN & POYZER, at the Store formerly occupied by Mr. Robert Barr, Lexington, the following Valuable
MEDICINES:
HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES. Which have, within eighteen months past, given relief to upwards of FIFTY THOUSAND PERSONS, of all ages, in various dangerous complaints, arising from worms and from foulness or obstructions in the stomach and bowels. A peculiar excellence of this remedy is, its being suited to every age and constitution: contains nothing but what is perfectly innocent, and is so mild in its operation, that it cannot injure the most delicate pregnant lady, or the tenderest infant of a week old; should no worms exist in the body—but will without pain or griping cleanse the stomach and bowels of whatever is foul or offensive, and thereby prevent the production of worms and many fatal disorders.
Description of Worms, and the symptoms by which they are known.
Worms which infest the human body, are chiefly of four kinds, viz the Pies or large round worm, the Ascarides, or small worm worm, and lastly, the Taenia, or tape worm, so called from its resemblance to tape; this is often many yards long, and is full of joints—It is most hurtful, and most difficult to cure.
Among the symptoms attending worms, are, disagreeable breath, especially in the morning—Bad and corrupted gum—Itching in the nose and about the seat—Convulsions and epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—Starting and grinding of the teeth in sleep—Irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food, and sometimes voracious—Purging, with slimy and ferid stools—Vomiting—Large and hard belly—Pains and sickens at the stomach—Pains in the head and thighs, with lowness of spirits—Slow fever, with small and irregular pulse—A dry cough—Excessive thirst—Some times pale and unhealthy countenance, and sometimes the face bloated and flushed.
Persons afflicted with any of the above symptoms, should have immediate recourse to HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES, which have been constantly attended with success in all complaints similar to those above described. Children generally take this medicine with eagerness, having a pleasing appearance, and an agreeable taste.
RECENT CURES, SELECTED FROM SEVERAL HUNDREDS.
MICHAEL DUFFY, residing at No. 57, Wilkes Street, Fell's point, city of Baltimore, voluntarily maketh oath, that the following statement is just and true.
In the beginning of May last, my three children, a boy of seven, and two girls, the one five, and the other three years of age, were taken very ill, nearly at the same time, of a common fever, as I then supposed—but was soon convinced the disorder was caused by worms; they were frequently troubled with convulsion fits, and violent startings in their sleep, and with almost continual vomiting and purging, particularly the youngest. I made immediate application to a physician of the first reputation, and his medicines were administered with a confidence of success which only increased our disappointment. The children grew daily worse, and I was absolutely without hopes of their recovery—The youngest one appeared almost devoid of animation, and scarcely an inhabitant of this world. In this distressing moment I was told that Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges had performed many cures in cases equally desperate. I immediately purchased a box, and gave each of them a dose, which in a few hours produced the most desirable effects; the eldest vomited a great number of very large worms, and the second thousands of small ones, many of them not a quarter of an inch long; in the youngest they seemed to be consumed, and had the appearance of skins, or slimy matter. I repeated the dose agreeably to the paper of directions, and they all speedily recovered a good state of health, which they still enjoy, though five months have nearly elapsed since they were on the borders of the grave, and the death of the whole appeared to be inevitable.
Sworn before me, this 26th day of September, 1799. J. SMITH.
INFALLIBLE AGUE AND FEVER DROPS,
For the cure of Agues, remittent and intermittent Fevers. Thousands can testify of their being cured by these drops, after the bark and every other medi-
cine has proved ineffectual; and not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one, and numbers not half a bottle.
These drops are particularly recommended to the inhabitants of low marshy countries, where the worst sort of agues generally prevail, which unless early attended to and speedily removed, injure the constitution exceedingly, and brings on dropsies, putrid fevers, and a variety of complaints, of the most dangerous and alarming nature. Many other medicines are daily offered to the public for the cure of this disorder, which, upon trial have been found either dangerous or useless. The bark is the usual remedy made use of, but being a very nauseous medicine, and soon taken in sufficient quantity, it very often fails; and children, and those who have weak stomachs, are frequently loth for want of a more easy and pleasant remedy.
THE SOVEREIGN OINTMENT FOR THE ITCH,
Which is warranted an infallible remedy at one application, and may be used with the most perfect safety by pregnant women, or on infants a week old, not containing a particle of mercury, or any dangerous ingredient whatever, and is not accompanied with that tormenting smart, which attends the application of other remedies.
PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE.
For the prevention and cure of Biliious and Malignant Fevers, is recommended
DR. HAHN'S ANTI-BILLIOUS PILLS,
Which have been attended with a degree of success highly gratifying to the inventor's feelings, in several parts of the West Indies, and the southern of the United States, particularly in Baltimore, Petersburg, Richmond, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington, Charleston, and Savannah. The testimony of a number of persons in each of the above places can be adduced, who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy, has under Providence, preserved their lives when in the most alarming circumstances.
The operation of these pills is perfectly mild, so as to be used with safety by persons in every situation, and of every age. They are excellently adapted to carry off superfluous bile, and prevent its morbid secretion—to restore and amend the appetite—to produce a free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds, which are often of fatal consequence.—A dose never fails to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance.—They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness—hicknats at the stomach and severe head aches—and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate.
THE GENUINE ESSENCE AND EXTRACT OF MUSTARD,
For the cure of Rheumatism, Gout, Palsy, Sprains, White Swellings, &c. and has performed more cures in the above complaints, than all the other medicines ever before made public.
DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR,
A sovereign remedy for Colds, obstinate Coughs, Asthmas, and approaching Consumptions, and is far superior to any other medicine for the WHOOPING COUGH.
INDIAN VEGETABLE SPECIFIC,
For the cure of a Certain Disease.
HAMILTON'S GRAND RESTORATIVE,
Is recommended as an invaluable medicine for the speedy relief and permanent cure of the various complaints which result from dissipated pleasures, juvenile indiscretions, residence in climates unfavorable to the constitution, the immediate use of tea, frequent intoxication, or any other destructive intemperance; the unskillful or excessive use of mercury; the diseases peculiar to females at a certain period of life; bad lyings in, &c.
THE DAMASK LIP-SALVE,
An elegant and pleasant preparation for chopped and sore lips, and every blemish and inconvenience occasioned by colds, fevers, &c. speedily restoring a beautiful rosy color, and delicate softness to the lips.
THE RESTORATIVE POWDER FOR THE TEETH AND GUMS.
This excellent preparation comforts and strengthens the gums, preserves the enamel from decay, and cleanses and whitens the teeth, absorbing all that acrimonious slime and foulness, which suffered to accumulate never fails to injure and finally ruin them.
DR. HAHN'S TRUE & GENUINE GERMAN CORN-PLAISTER,
An infallible remedy for Corns, speedily removing them root and branch, without giving pain.
DR. HAHN'S GENUINE EYE WATER,
A sovereign remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness or of accident, speedily removing inflammations, defluxions of rheume, dulness, itching, and films on the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small-pox, measles, and fevers, and wonderfully strengthening a weak sight. Hundreds have experienced its excellent virtues, when nearly deprived of sight.
TOOTH-ACHE DROPS,
The only remedy yet discovered which gives immediate and lasting relief in the most severe instances.
THE ANODYNE ELIXIR,
For the cure of every kind of Head-Ache, &c. &c.
BLANK DEEDS.

EXTRACTS From a Pamphlet published by ALEXANDER HAMILTON.
No. 1 "Occurrences which have either happened or come to light since the election of Mr. Adams to the presidency, confirming my unfavourable forebodings of his character, have given new and decisive energy in my mind, to the sentiment of his unfitness for the station."
No. 2 "The letter which has just appeared in the public prints, written by him when Vice-President, to Tench Coxe, is of itself conclusive evidence of the justness of this sentiment. It is impossible to speak of this transaction in terms suited to its nature, without losing sight that Mr. Adams is President of the United States."
"This letter avows the suspicion, that the appointment of Mr. Pinkney, to the Court of London, had been procured or promoted by British Influence. And considering the parade with which the story of the Duke of Leeds is told, it is fair to consider, that circumstance is the principal, if not the sole ground of the odious and degrading suspicion."
"Let any man of candor or knowledge of the world pronounce on this species of evidence." Page 14.
No. 3 "But a more serious question remains—How will Mr. Adams answer to the government & to his country, for having thus wantonly given the sanction of his opinion to the worst of the assertions which the enemies of the administration have impudently thrown upon it? Can we be surprised that such a torrent of slander has poured out against it, when a man, the second in official rank, the second in the official favor of the friends of the government, stooped to become himself one of the calumniators? It is peculiarly unlucky for Mr. Adams in this affair, that he is known to have desired at the time, the appointment which was given to Mr. Pinkney. The President declined the measure, thinking that it was compatible neither with the spirit of the constitution, nor with the dignity of the government, to designate the Vice President to such a station."
"This letter, better than volumes, develops the unfortunate character of Mr. Adams!" Page 20.
No. 4 The last material occurrence in the administration of Mr. Adams, of which I shall take notice, is the pardon of Fries, and other principals in the late insurrection of Pennsylvania.
"It is a fact, that a very refractory spirit has long existed in the western countries of that state.* Repeatedly have its own laws been opposed with violence, and as often, according to my information, with impunity.†"
"It is also a fact, which every body knows, that the laws of the union, in the vital article of revenue, have twice been resisted in the same state, by combinations so extensive, and under circumstances so violent, as to have called for the employment of military force; once under the former President, & once under the actual President, which together, cost the United States nearly a million and a half of dollars.‡"
"In the last instance some of the most important of the offenders, were capitally convicted. One of them by the verdict of two successive juries. The general opinion of the friends of the government demanded an example as indispensable to its security.**"
* Fries was not from the Western Counties.
† The only occasion that the laws have been violated with impunity, is in that of the Connecticut invaders; who were led by Oliver Wolcott, now Secretary of the Treasury, and who took Timothy Pickering, commanding the legal force, prisoner, and confined him, tied to the stump of a tree a whole night!
‡ It is well known that the troubles in the western countries were fomented by James Ross, Alexander Addison, John Woods, and in the legislature by Colonel Gurney and Mr. Wells, of this city, all friends of Mr. Hamilton. It is a falsehood as gross as it is impudent, to say, that there was a combination in the late hot-water war. The only violence done in the first instance was a woman pouring the contents of an urinal on the head of one of the assessors, who had behaved with grossness and insolence. The violence of the assessor was fit for Hamiltonian purposes. This drenching was made the pretext for calling in the civil authority; and here the influence of office produced a brawl. The persons concerned were all uninformed Germans, who properly belonged to the federal party. They were arrested, & released by about eighteen men accidentally collected together; and no other combination or appearance of force ever existed. It is very well known now who were the instigators of the disturbances which cost so much money to the public.
** The fact is too melancholy not to be deplored. A judge was found capable of distorting law, a fit instrument for Dyonisius, whose conduct on the bench, shocked men of
"The opinion was well founded. Two insurrections in the same state, the one upon the heels of the other demonstrated a spirit of insubordination, or disaffection, which required a strong corrective. It is a disagreeable fact, forming a weighty argument in the question, that a large part of the population of Pennsylvania, is a composition which peculiarly fits it for the intrigues of factious men, who may desire to disturb or overthrow the government.—And it is an equally disagreeable fact, that disaffection to the national government, is in no other state more general, more deeply rooted, or more envenomed.††"
"It ought to be added, that the impunity so often experienced, had made it an article in the creed of those who were actuated by the insurgent spirit, that neither the general nor the state government, dared to inflict capital punishments."
"To destroy this persuasion, to repress the dangerous spirit, it was essential that a salutary rigor should have been exerted, and those who were under the influence of the one and the other, should be taught that they were the dupes of a fatal illusion."
"The contrary course, which was pursued, is the most inexplicable part of Mr. Adams's conduct. It shews him so much at variance with himself, as well as with sound policy, that we are driven to seek a solution for it in some system of concession to his political enemies. A system the most fatal to himself, and for the cause of public order, of any that he could possibly devise. It is by temporisings like these, that men at the head of affairs, lose the respect both of friends and foes. It is by temporisings like these, that in times of fermentation and commotion, governments are prostrated, which might easily have been upheld, by an erect and imposing attitude." Page 41.
No. 5 "The circumstances of my late military situation have much less to do with my personal discontent than some others. In respect to them, I shall only say, that I owed my appointment to the station and rank I held, to the express stipulation of General Washington when he accepted the command of the army: afterwards peremptorily insisted upon by him, in opposition to the strong wishes of the President; and that though second in rank, I was not promoted to the first place when it became vacant by the death of the Commander in Chief. As to the former, I should have no cause to complain, if there had not been an apparent inconsistency in the measures of the President: if he had not nominated me first on the list of major generals and attempted afterwards to place me ibird in rank!"
"On other topics my sensations are far less neutral. If as I have been assured, from respectable authorities, Mr. Adams has repeatedly indulged himself in violent & indecent abuse of me; if he has denominated me a man destitute of every moral principle; if he has stigmatized me as the leader of a British faction: then certainly I have a right to think that I have been most cruelly and wickedly traduced, then have I an exclusive right to appeal to all those who have been spectators of my public actions; to all who are acquainted with my private character in its various relations, whether such treatment of me by Mr. Adams, is of a nature to weaken or strengthen his claim to the approbation of wise & good men; then will I so far yield to the consciousness of what I am!! †† As to declare, that in the cardinal points of public and private rectitude, above all in pure and disinterested zeal for the interests and service of this country, I shrink not from a comparison with any arrogant pretender to superior and exclusive merit."
"Having been repeatedly informed that Mr. Adams had delineated me as the leader of a British faction, and having understood that his partisans, to coun-
teract the influence of my opinion, were pressing the same charge against me, I wrote him a letter on the subject, dated the first of August last: No reply having been given by him to this letter, I on the first of the present month, wrote him another. Page 45.

No. 6 "To promote this co-operation, to defend my own character, to vindicate those friends, who with myself have been unkindly aspersed, are the inducements for writing this letter. Accordingly it will be my endeavor to regulate the communication of it in such a manner as will not be likely to deprive Mr. Adams of a single vote. Indeed it is much my wish, that its circulation could forever be confined within narrow limits. I am sensible of the inconveniences of giving publicity to a similar development of the character of the chief magistrate of our country; and I lament the necessity of taking a step which will involve that result. Yet to suppress truths, the disclosure of which is so interesting to the public welfare, as well as to the vindication of my friends and myself, did not appear to me justifiable." Page 51.
No. 8. COPIES OF LETTERS, (Above alluded to.) New-York, August 1, 1800.
"SIR, It has been repeatedly mentioned to me, that you have on different occasions asserted the existence of a British faction in this country, embracing a number of leading or influential characters of the federal party (as usually denominated) & that you have sometimes named me; at others, plainly alluded to me as one of this description of persons; & I have likewise been assured that some of your warm adherents, for electioneering purposes, have employed a corresponding language. I must, Sir, take it for granted that you cannot have made such assertions or insinuations, without being willing to avow them; and to assign the reason to a party who may conceive himself injured by them. I therefore trust, that you will not deem it improper, that I apply directly to yourself, to ascertain from you, in reference to your own declarations, whether the information I have received has been incorrect or not; and if correct, what are the grounds upon which you have founded the suggestions?"

No. VII. THE SECOND LETTER. New-York, October 1, 1800.
"SIR, The time which has elapsed since my letter of the 1st of August was delivered to you, precludes the farther expectation of an answer. From this silence I will draw no inference; nor will I presume to judge of the fitness of silence upon such an occasion, on the part of the chief magistrate of a republic towards a citizen, who without a stain has discharged so many important public trusts. But thus much I will affirm, that by whomsoever a charge of the kind mentioned in my former letter, may at any time have been made or insinuated against me it is a base, wicked, and cruel calumny; destitute even of a plausible pretext to excuse the folly, or mask the depravity which must have dictated it."
"With due respect, "I have the honour to be "Sir, "Your Obedient Servant (Signed) "ALEX. HAMILTON." To JOHN ADAMS, Esq. President of the United States.

LONDON, September 3.
We extract the following article from the Courrier de Londres of last night: Extract of a letter from Paris, dated August 26, 1800.
"I have learned through a certain channel that, in the conferences which Duroc has had with General Kray, the latter has formally declared, that until a monarchy be established in France, neither Europe nor France can calculate on peace. Buonaparte has two lines of conduct to pursue, either to make a king, or to become one himself. The army of Italy appears to be in these intentions.—Immediately after the battle of Marengo,
it was in agitation to declare Buonaparte king. The army of Germany, it is said, is inclined towards a prince of the house of Bourbon. Moreau has had very frequent communications, not only with general Kray, but even with the court of Vienna. This court has proposed simply to re-establish Louis XVIII. Moreau has actually transmitted this proposition to Buonaparte. I cannot say what the Chief Consul may have in his head, but it is certain that he plans fresh changes. Before long we may expect a new and a great revolution."
On this letter the Editor of the Courrier de Londres, makes the following remarks:
"These details reached us too late on Friday last to be inserted in our paper.—Several English papers have attacked the postscript in which we announced them. We declared in the first place, that whether peace or war take place, we buoy ourselves up with no hopes. In the present arrangements, France and Europe appear to us equally ruined. We have no doubt that a revolution will soon be made in France; but we can foretell that this revolution will be similar to those which have preceded it; that it will resolve no difficulty, and that the public and private calamities will only be augmented by it."
"Our correspondents may no doubt be mistaken in point of authenticity, but the following is an authority which may make an impression upon certain minds; the Journal des Hommes Libres. We particularly call the attention of our readers to it.—Ask these gentlemen what part they are to take, if Austria wishes to continue the war & rejects the term proposed by the First Consul? They will no doubt reply that something must be done to appease Austria, & this having been done, if Austria be not contented, it is not natural to suppose that their advice will be, that after having made so many sacrifices for this desirable object, peace, there are still some which we must make, and so on, until at length we shall have got that regular government which has lately been proposed to the Chief Consul almost officially."
"In the midst of all this there is one consolation for republicans, that Buonaparte having probably proposed all that he could do with honour, if the peace which is offered be not accepted, it is evident that the first magistrate of the great nation has refused to descend from the dignity which it has conferred upon him." The paper from which this is extracted, is under the direction of the minister of police.

The Answer of the House of Representatives to the Governor's Speech. HIS EXCELLENCY JAMES GARRARD, Esq. GOVERNOR OF KENTUCKY. SIR,
Individually, and as the representatives of the people of Kentucky, we are pleased to receive your assurances of zeal to discharge the duties incumbent on you. We entertain no doubt of your integrity, or of your intentions to promote the general welfare.
We sincerely join with you in the warmest expressions of gratitude to the great giver of all goodness for that portion of liberty, ease and prosperity which we enjoy: yet we cannot help but regret with you, the very reduced state of our finances, and the other inconveniences which you have laid before us.
We can only say, that our exertions shall be to promote whatever may have a tendency to advance and secure the interests of our fellow citizens, and to lessen (if not remove) the evils which attend.
We are unable to say how far our aid will be necessary to carry into effect special laws of the last session, which required the attention of the executive; inasmuch as we are not yet advised how far they have been acted upon, or what circumstances have impeded the completion thereof.
We conclude with hoping, that the united efforts of the executive and legislative powers of this state will be to promote manufactures and agriculture in our commonwealth; and that such endeavours will meet that reward which our warmest wishes shall contemplate.
