CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
SATURDAY, Feb. 12.
Report on Discriminating Duties.
Mr. Dana enquired whether it was intended to take up the report of the committee of commerce and manufactures on the repeal of discriminating and countervailing duties.
Gen. S. Smith replied that he considered the subject of great importance, and had been extremely anxious to have it discussed and decided upon during the present session. But as the consideration of it had been protracted to so late a period, as to render it impracticable to carry into effect the necessary provisions, in case the report should be adopted, he was willing to discharge the committee of the whole from a further consideration of it.
Mr. Mitchell observed that he was considerably disappointed at hearing the motion to discharge the committee. He had hoped that the projected repeal of the discriminating and countervailing duties between the United States and Great Britain, would have been the subject of a public discussion. Much benefit might be expected from a debate in this house, and he therefore had hoped that the merits of the resolution contemplated, would have been debated. Much light had been shed on this complicated enquiry already. Ever since the first motion made during the last session by the gentleman from Maryland (Gen. S. Smith) great attention had been given to the subject, by almost all classes of people. Merchants and legislators had particularly studied its details, and he thought it was much better understood now by all parties than it was a twelvemonth ago; and by a further examination in the committee of the whole, he hoped much greater advances would still be made. He, however, was inclined to think that public opinion was not yet ripe for an ultimate decision in favour of the repeal. There was no probability of adopting it, even if it should be argued. The discussion would merely end in a postponement, indefinitely to some future day. There being then no chance of carrying it into operation, and the house being much pressed with more urgent business that ought to be acted upon with all dispatch, he felt willing to let the project drop in this way. However speculative men might think on the point, the great body of practical men bore strong testimony against it. He therefore, on considering the circumstances, should favour the motion though it met him unexpectedly, and vote for discharging the committee of the whole from all further consideration of the meditated repeal of the discriminating and countervailing duties.
The discharge of the committee of the whole was carried without a division.
MONDAY, Feb. 14.
Mr. Leib presented sundry memorials from aliens of Pennsylvania, praying a modification of the naturalization act. The clerk began the reading of the memorials.
Mr. Smilie doubted the necessity of reading the memorials, which he believed were the same verbatim, with those already presented, and which the house had refused to refer.
Mr. Leib replied that the exceptional expressions contained in those memorials were not in these.
The reading of the memorials was finished.
Mr. Goddard thought, as these memorials were of a similar nature with those presented the last session, on which the house had acted, it would be unnecessary to take any order on them.
Mr. Leib said this was not the case. The prayer of the memorials, and their contents were very different from those offered the last session. He trusted, therefore, they would be treated in the same manner with other petitions, and be referred.
Mr. Bacon hoped they would be referred, especially as the reference of these petitions which were respectfully drawn, would be the strongest indication of the displeasure of the house as to the other petitions couched in different terms.
Mr. Goddard withdrew his opposition, when the reference obtained.
A bill supplementary to the act providing passports for the ships and vessels of the United States was read a third time and passed.
On motion of Mr. Helms, the house took up the amendments of the committee of the whole on the bill for the relief of persons who have received known wounds in the revolutionary war, and agreed to them with amendments.
On the question of engrossing the bill for a third reading, Mr. Griswold and Mr. Varnum opposed, and Mr. Randolph and S. Smith supported the question, when the question was taken and carried in the affirmative, ayes 51.
Mr. Thompson reported a bill more effectually to provide for the organization of the militia of the district of Columbia.
Referred to a committee of the whole on Thursday.
Mr. Varnum called up the report of a select committee, to whom was referred so much of the message of the President as relates to the militia.
Mr. John C. Smith in the chair.
The report of the committee was agreed to with sundry amendments, when the committee rose, and the house took up the report of the committee.
The house concurred in the resolution, which, in connection with the report of the select committee, is as follows:
The Committee to whom was referred that part of the President's Message of the fifteenth day of December last, which relates to the Militia institution of the United States, and a bill which was reported to the House at the last session of Congress, on the same subject,
REPORT—
“That after full investigation of the subject, they are of opinion, that a law which passed the eighth day of May, 1792, entitled “An act more effectually to provide for the national defence by establishing an uniform militia throughout the United States,” embraceth all the objects of a militia institution, delegated to Congress; the principles of that law, lay the foundation of a militia system, on the broad basis prescribed by the constitution, and are well calculated to ensure a complete national defence, if carried into effect by the state governments, agreeably to the power reserved to the states respectively, by the constitution, and therefore ought not to be altered. But, although the committee are of opinion, that the principles of the system established on the part of the United States, ought to be adhered to, yet they believe that some small alterations in the details of these principles, would render that system still more efficacious, and have reported a bill for that purpose.
“In those states which have taken energetic measures for carrying into effect the system adopted by Congress, agreeably to the power constitutionally vested in them, the militia are making great proficiency in military discipline, and in the knowledge of tactics, which evince, that the deficiency in organization, arming and discipline of the militia, which is too apparent in some of the states, does not arise from any defect in that part of the system which is under the control of Congress; but from omission on the part of the state governments.
“In order therefore, to impress the state governments, which the importance of the subject, and the indispensable necessity of their vigorous co-operation with the general government, to complete the militia institution, so as to ensure from that source, a permanent national defence, they submit the following resolution.
“Resolved, that the president of the United States, be requested to write to the executive of each state, urging the importance and indispensable necessity of vigorous exertions, on the part of the state governments, to carry into effect the militia system adopted by the national legislature, agreeably to the powers reserved to the states respectively, by the constitution of the United States, and in a manner the best calculated to ensure such a degree of military discipline and knowledge of tactics, as will under the auspices of benign providence, render the militia a sure and permanent bulwark of national defence.”
Messrs. Varnum and Butler were appointed a committee to wait on the president with the resolution.
Several amendments made in the bill above alluded to were agreed to, and o-
thers made; when the bill was ordered to be engrossed for a third reading to morrow—Ayes 50.
A message was received from the president, transmitting a copy of the laws of the Indiana territory from January, 1801 to February 1802.
Ordered to be printed.
A message was received from the senate, advising the house that they had passed the act to provide for the granting of clearances to ships or vessels of the United States laying in the Mississippi, south of the southern boundary of the United States, and therein to amend an act entitled an act to regulate the collection of duties on imports and tonnage, and for other purposes.
And that the Senate had considered a bill for the relief of Hugh Alexander and others, and had determined that the bill do not pass.
And about half past two o'clock Mr. Nicholson called for the unfinished business of Saturday, on which the galleries were cleared.
Tuesday, February 16.
As soon as the journal of the proceedings of yesterday was read, on motion of Mr. Nicholson the galleries were cleared.
LONDON, December 8.
It is now said that Citizen Louis Buonaparte is going to Italy, for the purpose of being invested with the Dukedom of Parma. This will be a powerful proof of his wife's influence.
Report states, that the Sovereign of Etruria will soon be unkinged, and that his dominions will be added to those of the future Emperor of the Gauls.
Private conferences are very frequent at St. Cloud; no others are admitted to them but such as are well versed in diplomatic business; whence it is inferred that something is machinating against the peace of Europe.
It is again positively said, that Buonaparte will soon be saluted Emperor, and will retain, in addition to that high dignity, the titles of Consul of France, and President of the Italian Republic.
A letter from Paris, dated December 2, states as follows:
“The First Consul came from St. Cloud yesterday evening, for the purpose of paying a visit to Madame Joseph Buonaparte, who has lately been delivered of a daughter. The Consul is shortly coming to reside at Paris during the winter months.
“The son of the Third Consul Le Brun has married Mademoiselle Barbe Marbois. On the day after the nuptials they paid a visit to the First Consul and his lady. The young bride, agitated by her recent souvenirs , trembled and was near fainting away, but was restored by the kind attention of Madame Buonaparte.
“Messdames Ramusert, Lucat, Tallio, et, Lauriston, are appointed Ladies of the Palace.
“A dreadful circumstance took place here yesterday. The lots have lately been drawn to determine which of the conscripts should join the armies in the ensuing year. The new regulations respecting the conscripts are so various, and encumbered with so many forms, that the difficulties are almost insuperable. A number of young men were yesterday collected at the hall of the Municipality.—They demanded loudly a more practical mode of providing substitutes, and from clamours were proceeding perhaps to violence, when the order was given for calling in the Municipal Guard. The conscripts being enraged, seized on the desks, tables and chairs of the hall, and piled them up as a barricade. From behind this they insulted the dragoons, and threw at their heads the books, the inkstands, and the firewood. The dragoons, being incensed in their turn, rushed in upon and tore down the barricade, and then fell on the unarmed conscripts with their sabres. No less than eight of these unfortunate young men were literally cut to pieces.”
The accounts received yesterday by the Dutch Mail from Vienna, Presburg, &c. though not of so late a date by several days, as those in the French papers, trace the mischief as far as Bucharest, but make no mention of Constantinople; the letters from that neighborhood subsequent to the 26th of October, of course, not having arrived. At Bucharest, it appears that the shock was very severe, but less so to the northward of that place. It was even felt as far as Petersburg and Moscow.
Letters from Constantinople of the exact date of the 26th of October, (probably the morning) are in town, but they are uniformly silent respecting the earthquake, which certainly took place on that day, whether or not it was so destructive in its effects as has been stated. We are extremely anxious for the arrival of the next Turkish mail.
The Batavian Vice-Admiral, De Winter, has been at Tripoli, and concluded a peace with that state, under the promise to pay to the Pacha an annual acknowledgment of 80,000 Spanish pistoles of which sum 20,000 are to be paid immediately, and the remainder after the expiration of six months. A yearly present of 700 pistoles is besides to be made. The Dutch have likewise given the Pacha 120 barrels of gun-powder, and a quantity of tar.
DUBLIN, Dec. 4.
STORM AND INUNDATION.
The tempestuous weather experienced from Wednesday night until late on Thursday, together with the heavy and unremitting rain during that period, have produced various disastrous occurrences near this city. The blacks, weirs, &c. at Old Bawn paper mills, are entirely swept away: the works, which were extensive, it is feared will be stopped, and the people ruined. Nearly an acre and a half of Mr. Wildrige's meadow, adjacent to the mills, has been severed from the rest by the violence of the flood, and carried completely off.
At Ringland the bridge, a fabric apparently of very solid and judicious construction, has yielded to the impetuous force and accumulated weight of the waters, the centre arch and that next the city being destroyed, excepting so much on the side towards the docks, as to admit of foot passengers.
Last night, a little after ten, the bridge at Coal-quay gave way. Providentially no person was passing at the moment.—Two of the arches were torn from the centre before eleven o'clock, and by morning the remainder was nearly destroyed. Watchmen were stationed at both sides the water to prevent accidents.
The bridges of Lucan and Celbridge have been also destroyed.
This day various articles of household furniture, implements of husbandry, &c. were seen floating down the river.
The parts of the town situated within the influence of Poddle stream were yesterday inundated at an early hour, to a considerable depth, Patrick street and its vicinity in particular. In the former street several boats were employed until evening; and though the inhabitants had anticipated the event which took place, they nevertheless have sustained serious injury from the impracticability of removing the contents of their stores and cellars. The flood extended to New street, the Coombe, Black Pits, Cork street, &c. and frightful torrents diverged from Patrick street into Bride's alley, Bull alley, and the lanes lying on a similar level.
Much distress was also experienced, though not in the same degree, by the inhabitants of other parts of the city.
The lower Castle-yard was rendered impassible to any but horsemen, high carriages, and even to those with difficulty. Through Palace street a torrent rushed across Dame street into Crampton court, which caused cars, gigs, &c. to ply there for hire; in that immediate neighborhood, and as far as College green, the kitchens were inundated to a considerable depth, and similar inconvenience was experienced in some degree in every quarter of the city, but to day the inundation has entirely subsided.
The damage suffered at sea, we fear, will swell the catalogue of calamity to a most affecting degree.
From the (N. E.) PALLADIUM.
WHENEVER a person is wanted for any particular enterprize, it is natural to select one whose well known qualities give the best assurance of success. On this ground we agree with the Aurora that Mr. Monroe has higher claims (and much better known) to the office of Minister to France than any other American. There is no doubt that he is eminently fitted to accomplish the great and politic schemes of our Executive. Isforbearance to be purchased, who can drive a bargain like Mr. M.?—Who so armed at all points to meet honest Talleyrand? And then he is free from those qualms which some stubborn patriots have felt when called upon to surrender their independence or

forfeiture the honor of their country; but he has been fully proved in all these things and never yet found wanting.
As the wisdom of the choice is past doubt, what will probably be the success of the mission? If Bonaparte expects the renewal of hostilities on the continent he will be in no hurry to take possession of the ceded province. He will be cautious how far he dissipates his strength by such distant expeditions, when his object is to direct it against a single nation, or when new combinations are forming to limit and clip his ambitious project. Still more cautious will he be under such circumstances how he invites new alliances against himself by quickening a sense of common danger. It is possible, therefore, that an agreement may be made with our Minister for a valuable consideration not to do what the policy of France would forbid. In the mean time she will never forget her plans, though she is sometimes obliged and often chooses to delay them from motives of greater future advantage. If a compromise should be made for the free navigation of the Mississippi for a few years, till the storm of another presidential election is over-blown, still it would be remembered in the councils of France that there was an extensive and fertile province beyond the Mississippi, which would give them a footing in the new world with the prospect of extending their empire to the North, the South and the East. And after the experience of two centuries, and particularly of the last ten years, it is too late to say that pretences will not be found to cover any violation of faith, any degree of injustice, or any scheme of ambition. Besides they will not be delicate about the plausibility of pretences; they will grow flimsy and insulting in proportion to their power to enforce the wrong.
Should France, however, think it expedient to take immediate possession, it is more than probable that all restrictions will be taken off, and all fears of their future imposition soothed with professions of amity. Spain is nothing but a province of France, politically speaking, and her government a mere viceroyship of the great nation. The measures at New Orleans may have been directed by Bonaparte; he may have chosen to use the Spaniards as the instruments of his policy; to make his own reception popular by graciously undoing what he himself had commanded to be done. While the western people are smarting with injuries and losses, they will be disposed to receive as a favor from France, what they would have demanded as a right from Spain. Nay, Bonaparte, may go so far in his kindness, as to chastise the Spaniards for wronging and insulting us; though he had set them on, and they dared not disobey.
In any event, Mr. Monroe will be able to recruit his exhausted finances. He had just walked out of office, and was ready to serve his friends in the line of his profession. With nine thousand dollars outfit, and the same sum for a salary, he may perhaps make some profitable speculations in houses, chateaus and palaces.
Alexandria Advertiser.
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19.
Married, on Thursday evening, by the Rev. Mr. Eaton, Mr. SAMUEL JEFFREY, to Miss SALLY MAHONY, both of this place.
Extract from a circular letter written by Mr. C'Brien, to the American Consuls, dated Algiers, 15th October, 1802.
"On the 6th inst. arrived here from Tripoli in 16 days, Captain Morris and Crew. At Tripoli the Deans, Batavians and Swedes have secured their peace.
"There are six sail of Tripoline corsairs to the westward of Malta, and four sail of large corsairs were fitting for sea in order to search for Americans; and it is considered, if they meet a Levant wind, the said Corsairs will push out of the straits, where they know our vessels have no convoy. In consequence all masters and citizens of the United States concerned, are to guard against the threatened danger they will run, in being met by corsairs of Tripoli. Tripoli is at peace with Portugal."
Extract from a letter written by Thos. Gorman, Esq. to the American Consul at Malaga, dated Almeria, 29th Nov. 1802.
"An express has just come in from the Court of Vera, to our government, ad-
vising that five large Zebecs, under Moorish colours, have been cruising off that place, and working to the westward. A frigate and a brig have also been perceived cruising off this bay, and they appeared of the same description."
Extract from a letter written by Captain John Rogers of the Navy, to the Secretary of the Navy, dated on board the frigate Adams Malaga Road, December 13th, 1802.
"I shall leave this place to-morrow for Malta, to join the commodore—and shall take Almeria in my way, to inform myself what the vessels are, that are mentioned in Mr. German's letter, which I enclose you with another from Consul O'Brien. Mr. Kirkpatrick, our Consul here, is of opinion that part of them may be the cruisers mentioned in Consul O'Brien's letter. I have only one vessel under convoy (the brig Boston of Philadelphia, bound to Leghorn) which I shall discharge so soon as I get to the eastward of Minorca."
I have been very much astonished that none of the federal printers have noticed a paragraph in Jones's Examiner of the 29th ult. It is so fraught with malice, and falsehood, that no general character of a paper, however debased, however infamous, should protect it from detection.
The "Examiner" has declared to the world, that James Monroe, has no outfit and no secretary in the present mission to France—But I; will give you his own words.
"It is not now a money making job , to accept such an appointment as the one lately conferred upon Mr. Monroe. He has no outfit of nine thousand dollars nor has he a private secretary. So that it cannot be considered as a douceur to Mr. Monroe, but as usual, a patriotic sacrifice of his time and talents to the public service."
I consider this, Messrs. Printers, as the most impudent and rascally attempt to prop up the present administration upon a false bottom, and to raise the reputation of a minister upon principles foreign to his feelings, that has ever been " effayed " in any country since the 1st days of civilization.
"It is not now a money making job ." Gracious heaven! where is the temper that can bear this impudence, this insult? The former administration are accused of appointing Ambassadors in order to a money making job —Did not this malicious and lying Examiner know, that an envoy's outfit depended upon a basis somewhat more permanent than presidential will? The outfit is established by omnipotent authority—The Ambassador, when appointed, has so much and no more, and no president can either enlarge or contract his compensation—This then is a farcasm which none but the parasites of Jefferson would use; a veil under which no minister except Monroe, would hide his nakedness; an atom of support, which none but Jefferson, the mob serving Jefferson would take.
If Mr. Monroe had ever thought proper to sacrifice his time and talents to the public service." If Mr. Monroe was in that kind of situation as to make this pecuniary sacrifice, is it a reflection upon others that they cannot do the same? If Mr. Jefferson could induce Monroe to work in his administration for nothing, so good for Mr. Jefferson. We all know he has his party finely under his thumb—But do these thing work a disgrace upon former administrations? For it is evident that Monroe's supposable " sacrifice " in the present instance, must be owing to the influence of Jefferson, for we all remember that Monroe, under Washington, took his outfit—Why this difference under different administrations? I ask Mr. Jones, how came Monroe to take his outfit under Washington? I presume he has become more patriotic since.
But what will the public think of Jones, of Jefferson and Monroe, when they come to know that Monroe has received his outfit like all other Ministers—and that he has a Secretary.
I do not know what the present administration may understand by an outfit, but if the receipt of 9000 dols. previous to embarkation, is an outfit why—Monroe has got it. If any man doubt whether Monroe has received 9000 dols. let him consult Gabriel Duval the comptroller. Duval will not deny the truth, much less will he deny a truth already mentioned by himself.
This however is not all—it is shrewdly suspected that Monroe having drawn already an outfit for Spain, will next receive an outfit for France, and then an outfit for London.
If subsequent events should bring these three outfits about, will Jones say it is not a money making job ? Oh! Monroe, how easily must thou want a prop, when thy warmest friends betake themselves to such blunders to support thee. When they must seize on such a paradox as to prove thy disinterested and patriotic sacrifices , from the acceptance of the most opportunely pecuniary appointment which a lucky minister ever sold her to.
A SUBSCRIBER. (Wash. Fed.)
On Wednesday Mr. Ross made another speech in the Senate on the measures recently pursued at New Orleans. In this speech Mr. Ross undertook, at considerable length to prove the policy of immediately taking possession of New Orleans; and concluded by moving resolutions, authorizing the President to take New Orleans—authorizing a draft of 50,000 militia; and appropriating five million of dollars.
The Senate ordered the resolutions to be printed, and postponed their consideration till Monday next. (Nat. Intell.)
From the Washington Federalist.
George-Town, Feb. 13.
Yesterday the Stage passed by the Capitol, on its way to the City of Baltimore, containing among other passengers, the Washingtonian recalled, the Jeffersonian re-appointed ambassador, to Spain, to France, to Barataria, and to God knows where else—the spes ultima —the dernier espoir of our friends on the western side of the Allegany. When oh! horrible to be related—an omen more direful than the sinister flight of a Crow or a Raven!—they had not proceeded one mile from Stelle's Hotel, when de Vheels of de Stage where stopped—and alas! so miry, so broken, so treacherous was the ground, no efforts, which could be made were sufficient to procure either a progressive or retrogressive movement. It is tacitly believed that neither the President, who now is, nor the Braddock's field Secretary, who once was, had any share in this stoppage of de Vheels of de Stage, whatever any wicked Federalist may wish to suggest. Au contraire, it is verily believed that they so much dread certain intestine commotions, and oppugnation to governmental delays, which may possibly take place ULTRA MONTES, that they would, notwithstanding their principles of ECONOMY, have lavished a large portion of Oil upon de Vheels, to have procured an acceleration of their rotation.
There is much reason to believe this inauspicious event hath been brought about through the vile machinations of the Federalists. If it could be fixed upon the Judiciary, never could be a more fortunate opportunity to rid our country of that aristocratical junto; as congress being now in session, might immediately impeach them. Any information tending to establish such a charge will be thankfully received, and as Denniston and Cheetham, when they advertised on an occasion something similar, said, "the utmost Honor and Secrecy may be relied on."
N. B. Luther Martin arrived, an hour and a half after the fatal catastrophe, at the very spot where the company, including the ambassador, were cooing their heels under the roof of an open barn! It is submitted to the discriminating sagacity of the sage of Clonmel, who mistook an invitation to goa, for an invitation to dine with Sir John Shore, and to the logical acumen of Friar Bacon, whether the presence of this Arch Federalist, might not by some retro-spective, retro-active influence, have produced that intrusive deflection of the sinister lateral Rotatories into the insipiated, adhesive terraqueous substratum, which in so unfortunate a manner, suspended and oppugnation one of the most important measures of our government.

THE FOLLY OF ATHEISM.
AN ODE BY DR. DARWIN.
"I am fearfully and wonderfully mad." DULL Atheist! could a giddy dance Of atoms lawless hurled, Construct so wonderful, so wise, So harmonized a world?
Why do not Arabs driving sands, The sport of every storm, Fair freighted fleets, the child of chance, Or gorgeous tempies form?
Presumptuous wretch! thyself survey, That lesser fabric scan; Tell me from whence th' immortal dust, The god, the reptile mar?
Where wast thou, when this pop'lous earth From chaos burst its way, When stars exulting sang the morn, And hail'd the new-born day?
What, when the embryo speck of life, The miniature of man, Nursed in the womb, its slender form To stretch and swell began?
Say, didst thou warp the fibre woof? Or mould the sentient brain? Thy fingers stretch the living nerve! Or fill the purple vein?
Didst thou then bid the bounding heart Its endless toil begin? Or clothe in flesh the hardening bone, Or weave the silken skin?
Who bids the babe, to catch the breeze, Expand his panting breast; And with impatient hands, untaught, The milky teat arrest?
Or who with unextinguish'd love The mothers' bosom warms, Along the rugged paths of life To bear it in her arms?
A God! a God! the wide earth shouts, A God! the heavens reply; He moulded in his palm the world, And hung it to the sky.
Let us make man!—With beauty clad, And health in every vein; And reason thron'd upon his brow, Step'd forth majestic man.
Around he turns his wond'ring eyes, All Nature's works surveys; Admires the earth; the skies; himself! And tries his tongue in praise.
Ye hills and vales! ye meads and woods! Bright sun and glittering stars! Fair creatures, tell me, if you can, From whence and what I am?
What parent power, all great and good, Do these around me own; Tell me, Creation, tell me how T'adore the vast Unknown; * According to his M. S. copy

DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR, A sovereign remedy for Colds, Obsolete Coughs, Asthmas, Coughs, Sore Throats, and Approaching Consumptions.
To parents who may have children afflicted with the HOOPING COUGH.
This discovery is of the first magnitude, as it is an immediate relief, checks the progress, and in a short time entirely removes the most cruel disorder to which children are liable—the Elixir is so perfectly agreeable and the dose so small, that no difficulty arises in taking it.
From LUTHER MARTIN, Esq. Attorney General of the State of Maryland.
Gentlemen, I comply with your request in stating my opinion of Hamilton's Elixir. It has been used in my family for two or three years past, with uniform success, whenever colds, coughs, or similar complaints have rendered medicine necessary. I have myself found it an excellent and agreeable remedy for a very painful and troublesome affection of the breast, accompanied with soreness and with obstructed and difficult breathing.
On these accounts I do not hesitate to recommend Hamilton's Elixir, as a valuable medicine, and deserving public attention.
LUTHER MARTIN.
Mr. Abijah Henly, Bridge-street, Baltimore, was cured by one bottle of Hamilton's Elixir of a very complicated disorder, occasioned by a severe cold caught several months ago. He breathed with the greatest difficulty, and was often thrown into weakening sweats when he attempted to walk any distance, and his voice would frequently fail in such a degree that he could only attempt to whisper, he has been upwards of six weeks without a return of his complaints, and desires to give this public testimony in favour of this invaluable medicine.
Dr. 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 unfavourable to the constitution—the immoderate 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 lying in, &c. &c.
And is proved by long and extensive experience to be absolutely unparalleled in the cure of Nervous disorders, Consumption, Lowness of spirits, Loss of appetite, Impurity of the blood, Hysterical affections, Inward weakness, Seminal weakness, Fluor albus, (or whites) Barrenness. In cases of extremity, where the long prevalence and obstinacy of disease has brought on a general impoverishment of the system, excessive debility of the whole frame, and a wasting of the flesh, which no nourishment or cordial could repair a perseverance in the use of this medicine has performed the most astonishing cures.
HAMILTON'S ESSENCE and EXTRACT OF MUSTARD,
A safe and effectual remedy for gout, rheumatism, palsy, sprains, bruises, pains in the face and neck, &c. And has performed more cures in the above complaints than all the other medicines ever before made public.
From Dr. Weatherburn, Wyth county, Virginia.
Gentlemen, I purchased at your shop the preparations you call Hamilton's Essence, or Extract of Mustard, which I believe has perfectly removed a chronic rheumatism (of that kind named sciatica, or of the hip joint) under which I had laboured for a long time, and which had baffled every article in the Materia Medica, and every mode of treatment received into practice for the cure of this obstinate disease. If you think this letter useful you are at liberty to make it public. Yours, &c.
P. WEATHERBURN.
John Hoover, rope-maker, South Second-Street, between Mary and Christian-Streets, Philadelphia, voluntarily maketh oath as follows, namely, that his wife, Mary Hoover, was very severely afflicted with a violent rheumatism, very dangerously situated, the consequence of a severe cold after lying in, as to be confined to her bed for several weeks, and was at length reduced to the melancholy apprehension of remaining a cripple for life, notwithstanding the most respectable medical advice was followed, and every probable remedy attempted; when seeing several cases of cures performed by Hamilton's Essence and Extract of Mustard, they were procured from Mr. Birch, No. 17, South Second-Street. The first application enabled her to walk across the room, and the use of one bottle restored her to her usual state of health and strength. JOHN HOOVER.
Sworn and subscribed before Ebenezer Forger, Esq. one of the justices of the peace for Philadelphia County.
HAMILTON'S
WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES
Which have within four years past cured upwards of one hundred and twenty thousand persons of both sexes, of every age, and in every situation, of various dangerous complaints arising from worms, and form obstructions or foulness in the stomach and bowels.
This medicine bears no analogy whatever of similar article, so commonly complained of as operating with violence; on the contrary, a particular excellence of this remedy is its being suited to every age and constitution; containing 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. They are particularly efficacious in carrying off all gross humours and eruptions; feverish and bilious complaints, and are the safest and mildest purgative that can be used on any occasion. Description of Worms, and the symptoms by which they are known.
Worms which infest the human body, are chiefly of four kinds, viz. the Lers or large round worm, the Ascarides, or small maw worm, the Cucurbitina, or short, flat, white worm, and lastly, the Tania, 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 gums—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 fetid stools—Vomiting—Large and hard belly—Pains and sickness at the stomach—Pains in the head and thighs, with lowness of spirits—Slow fever, with small and irregular pulse—A dry cough—Excellent thirst—Sometimes 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.
A dose of this medicine given occasionally during the warm season, will effectually prevent the vomiting and purging of children, a dreadful disorder which annually destroys thousands of the infant part of our cities. It is likewise the mildest and most certain remedy known and has restored to health and strength a great number when in an advanced stage of this fatal complaint. Particular and plain instructions are given for every part of the necessary treatment in such cases.
Children generally take this medicine with eagerness; having a pleasing appearance, and an agreeable taste.
CASES OF CURES.
(Selected from thousands) the authenticity of which any person may ascertain, either by letter or personal application.
TAPE WORM.
Mr. SAMUEL FULLER, Inn-keeper, on the Harford road, ten miles from Baltimore, began about 20 months ago to be grievously afflicted with a tape worm, which increased fast in size and strength, so as to excite the most horrid sensations by its writhing motions and intolerable pains, resembling the gnawing and tearing of his bowels, which deprived him of his necessary sleep, and caused such dreadful apprehensions as cannot be conceived but by one in a similar situation—his appetite wasted rapidly, and with that his strength, so that he was unable to attend to any business—when he heard of some excellent cures performed by Hamilton's worm lozenges, he took a large dose, which brought away about FOUR YARDS of the worm (now in the possession of Lee & Co.)—but a renewal of his pains soon convinced him that this monstrous reptile had recovered its first vigour—Application was made to Lee & Co. for more of their medicine, with their advice—from which resulted the total expulsion of his formidable enemy, in several pieces, which he supposed to be SIX or EIGHT YARDS in length. A few months have since elapsed, and Mr. Fuller is now in perfect health. The above facts are well known to a numerous circle of his neighbours, and himself will gratify any who may wish to make further inquiries on the subject. Although Hamilton's worm lozenges produce such powerful effects, when necessary, yet they are perfectly innocent and mild in their operation on the human body, even taken in large doses, as Mr. Fuller will testify—their particular mildness is abundantly evident in innumerable cures of infants.
Communicated by Dr. John Spangler, York-town, Pennsylvania.
Letter from the reverend Mr. JOHN MOLTHER, minister of the Moravian church, in York town.
York, January 4th, 1802.
Dear Sir, Dr. Hamilton's lozenges have been recommended to me as a very adequate means for the cure of children afflicted with worms, I procured a box for the use of my family, to try, whether by means of this medicine, I might be enabled to gain a point, which, to accomplish, different other means had proved abortive. My eldest boy had a very sickly appearance, was very restless at night, grew leaner from time to time; in short, he seemed to be in a precarious state of health, which would yield to none of the medicines administered, until I gave him two doses of lozenges, agreeably to the directions which carried off a substance to an appearance a mucus, but upon close inspection quit repeated
with every final expelling animals. Not one of the sort of worms which usually afflict children came from him. Since that period he grew remarkably better in health, and though he has had different occasions I have used this medicine purging substitute, and found it to answer exceedingly well, without bringing on belly-ache, or any of those disagreeable sensations, so often occasioned by purging medicines. Upon the whole I judge this medicine to be, besides its main object, one of the most salutary means for reducing lost appetite, and promoting a proper state of digestion, by carrying off that brassy substance, which engenders so much multiplication both among children and adults.
I am, Sir, your most obedient servant, JOHN MOLTHER.
