Messrs. Snowden & Co.
I HAVE this moment returned from the county election, and must trouble you to insert a few particulars which took place on that occasion, lest an erroneous statement should prejudice the public mind.
While on the bench, I was questioned with regard to my opinion on the subject of extending the right of suffrage. I replied: I conceive the present laws on that subject to be very excellent of their kind. I do not wish to see it extended, as it may terminate in universal suffrage, which is one of the greatest evils that can afflict us. I observed, that universal suffrage is always attended with corruption, but if it must take place, let men, women and children all vote, we should then see who would prevail at an election.—Whether the powers of rhetoric, agreeable to the ideas of the most celebrated writers on that subject, would carry more conviction to the minds of the people, than a composition extracted, not from books, but grain or fruit, which if the proof be good, would carry more convincing proof, and in half the time, than all the rhetoric on earth. If the arguments are addressed to the minds of the hearers, this latter argument would affect them much sooner than the force of words.
I said I never wished to be elected by such means, if I could avoid it. I wished to be chosen by free and independent citizens, and not by vagrants.
I observed, to certain gentlemen, that as they had the power in their own hands, it was to be hoped they would use it with discretion, and above all, to provide for our national defence, by organizing the militia, as there could be little doubt of an invasion, and this body was certainly defective in many respects. I was asked, if invasion threatened, whether I thought every man would turn out in our defence? I replied, I thought not. I most certainly should myself, but there are many who would not be actuated by the same motives that would influence me. The fact is, these very men, to whom the right of suffrage might be extended, would be among the last to defend a soil where they had no attachment whatever. Fighting is far from being an inviting business, and few people undertake it for the pleasure it affords; it must be either necessity, interest, or patriotism, that will bring men to it.
Again, our old and tried defenders and preservers, have received such grateful rewards, such beneficent smiles, that there is no doubt experience would teach them better, than to consume the remains of a life already worn out in our service.
I do not recollect any other particular expressions that I made use of; if, however, any gentleman may incline to state any, I shall not deny my words.
It is to be remembered, that this conversation was conducted with perfect good humor, and without any acrimony on either side.
I trust, gentlemen, my conduct on the late occasion, was perfectly congenial with the cause I espoused. I neither asked for a vote, questioned or disputed any, and was perfectly satisfied with the events of the day.
It may be supposed that the termination of the affair threw a damp on my spirits. The reverse I assure you. Could I hear my name pronounced by the respectability, the honor, the patriotism, the character, the integrity, the truth and value of my state, and feel depressed?—Could I behold men, who from age have long since relinquished such scenes, coming forward in my behalf, and feel despondent? Could I behold men leaving their business and quitting their affairs, to support my cause, and yet feel dismayed?—Could I behold men, who from only the acquaintance of the morning, were exerting themselves with an alacrity that will ever do them honor, and yet be alarmed? No, gentlemen, this was a society that a man might have conceived himself honored to have been admitted into, much more to have become the object of their choice? Under these circumstances I could have borne a majority of millions without a sigh. Numbers have prevailed before the present day. Leonidas fell at Thermopylae, oppressed by numbers, in defence of his country, and yet we honor his memory. I tell you, gentlemen, that misfortune may depress a brave spirit, but cannot destroy it.
To those gentlemen who, from the acquaintance of the morning, exerted themselves in my behalf, I tender every obligation a grateful sense of their favors ran in inspire. Should it ever be in my power to requite their services, most willingly shall every ability be exerted in their cause.
To you, my old friends, many of whom appeared on the late occasion, I can only observe, that a man who will serve his country and his friend, will desert neither. Yes, gentlemen,
There is more true joy, Marcellus exil'd feels, Than Cæsar with the senate at his heels.
We have many Cæsars, but wait until they plunge into the foaming Tiber of trouble, we shall then hear, help me Cæsar or I sink.
The light of truth will yet flash on the mind hardened by prejudice. It is a misfortune that these principles should prevail in so eminent a degree. Even among savages, the wild untutored sons of nature, merit has a place; but philosophy is yet unknown there, and long may Heaven at least keep one part of the world ignorant of its influence. It is a cutting reflection to an American, that what is now despised in the old world should be admired the new; that we who have taught them true greatness should assume their follies. It is a consolation that the absurdity cannot last forever—under its attendant calamities we must shew one virtue of the old school, which is patience. I hope, ere another year comes on, my fellow-citizens may think more favorable of the principles they now dislike, and for the present we may exclaim with our Redeemer, "Lord forgive them they know not what they do."
G. W. P. CUSTIS.
Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Wednesday, February 24.
Debate on the bill received from the Senate entitled "An Act to repeal certain acts respecting the organization of the courts of the U. States."
(Mr. Rutledge's Speech continued.)
Sir, this document No. 8 is as little calculated to serve the purposes of gentlemen who appeal to it, as is the document produced some days past by a gentleman from Virginia (Mr. Thompson)—he gave us a record from the court of chancery in Virginia to shew how much business there is done in that court where he says there is but one judge and his salary is only 1500 dollars. The hon. gentleman says in Virginia they have but one chancellor, with the salary of 1500 dollars, who renders as much service as all the national courts; and to prove this he reads to us a certificate from the clerk of the court of chancery stating that on the chancery docket there were two thousand six hundred and twenty seven causes. This paper serves to shew not what business is done, but what a mass of business is undone and which the court is incompetent to dismiss. What a frightful picture has he given of the judicature of his own state. How alarming must it be to foreigners and the citizens of other states who may have causes depending in Virginia—What chance can a citizen of South Carolina, Massachusetts or elsewhere, have of obtaining justice before the lapse of many years, if the history given by the gentleman of Virginia be correct. Should a citizen of another state be a suitor in Virginia it is competent to the citizen of that state to carry the cause into the court of chancery, where a mass of business presents itself to his view, and he finds 2600 causes must be dismissed before his can be heard. Where would the citizens of other states having debts in Virginia attempt their recovery? They would seek justice, Sir, in the federal circuit court, which gentlemen are now endeavoring to annihilate, and not in the state court, which may be more properly called a bed of justice than a court of justice if justice sleeps there as the gentleman has represented. He also states that state justice is cheaper than national justice. I do not believe this a correct position. I am very willing to enter into a comparison, but must exclude from it, Virginia, because he has shown that justice is denied there, it being greatly delayed. I did not hope Mr. Chairman, the motion made before I got up for the rising of the committee would have obtained, and should not have commenced offering my observations at so late an hour, had there not been loud call for the question, but as I am unwilling to abuse the patience of the committee, as I have detained
them I find more than two hours, and have not yet offered half of the observations I am desirous of submitting, I will suspend them for the present and continue them to-morrow, or will now proceed as shall be most agreeable to the committee.
On motion of gen. Smith the committee rose.
Thursday, February 25.
I beg leave Mr. Chairman, to proffer my thanks to the committee for the indulgence with which they favored me yesterday, and at the same time to acknowledge the respect excited by the politeness of the honorable gentleman from Maryland who moved for its rising. In the course of the observations yesterday offered I endeavoured to shew that 'twas the intention of the convention to make our judges independent of both executive and legislative power—that this was the acknowledged understanding of all the political writers of that time, the belief of the state conventions, and of the first Congress when they organized our judicial system. If I have been successful in my attempt to establish this position, and if (what I suppose cannot be denied) it be true in jurisprudence that whenever power is given specially to any branch of government, and the tenure by which 'tis to be exercised be specially defined, that no other, by virtue of general powers, can rightfully intrude into the trust—then I presume it must follow of consequence that the present intermeddling of Congress with the judicial department is a downright usurpation and that its effect will be the concentration of all power in one body, which is the true definition of despotism . As, Sir, every thing depends upon the fair construction which this article in the constitution respecting the judiciary is susceptible of, I must again read it (here Mr. R. read several clauses of the constitution,) some of the clauses we see are directory and others prohibitory. Now, Sir, I beg to be informed of what avails are your prohibitory clauses, if there be no power to check congress and the president from doing what the constitution has prohibited them from doing? Those prohibitory regulations were designed for the safety of the state governments, and the liberties of the people. But establish what is this day the ministerial doctrine, and your prohibitory clauses are no longer barriers against the ambition or the will of the national government; it becomes supreme and is without control. In looking over those prohibitory clauses as the representative of South-Carolina, my eye turns with no inconsiderable degree of jealousy and anxiety to the 9th sec. of the 1st article—which declares, (here Mr. R. read the article respecting emigration before the year 1808.)
I know this clause was meant to refer to the importation of Africans, only, but there are gentlemen who insisted that it has a general reference, and was designed to prohibit our inhibiting migration as well from Europe as any where else. It is in the recollection of many gentlemen who now hear me, that in discussing the alien bill, this clause in the constitution was shewn to us, and we are told it was a bar to the measure, and an honorable gentleman from Georgia, then a member of this house, and now a Senator of the United States (and who had been a member of the convention) told us very gravely, he never considered this prohibition as relating to the importation of slaves.—I call upon gentlemen from the southern states to look well to this business. If they persevere in fritting away the honest meaning of the constitution by their forced implications, this clause is not worth a rush—a mere dead letter; and yet, without having it in the constitution, I know the members from South-Carolina would never have signed this instrument, nor would the convention of that state have adopted it. My friend from Delaware, standing on this vintage ground, says to our opponents, here I throw the gauntlet, and demand of you how you will extricate yourselves from the dilemma in which you will be placed should Congress pass any such act as are prohibited by the constitution. The judges are sworn to obey the constitution which limits the power of Congress, and says they shan't pass a bill of attainder or ex post facto law; they shall not tax articles exported from any state, and has other prohibitory regulations. Well Sir, suppose Congress should pass an ex post facto law, or legislate upon any other subject which is prohibited to them, where are the people of this country to
seek redress? Who are to decide between the constitution and the act of Congress? Who are to pronounce on the laws? Who will declare whether they be constitutional? Gentlemen have answered this pertinent enquiry. Sir, they cannot answer it satisfactorily to the people of this country. It is a source of much gratification to me to know, that relate to the constitutionality of its acts in unison with those of the wisest and best men in my native state.
The judicial system had proved so inconvenient there as to render a new organization of it necessary some years past. There were gentlemen in the legislature as anxious to send from the bench some of the judges as gentlemen here are to dismiss our federal judges; personal animosities existed there as well as here, though not to so great an extent; but 'twas the opinion of a large majority of the South-Carolina legislature that as the constitution declares "the judges shall hold their offices during good behavior," the office could not be taken from them, the measure was abandoned, and the wise and cautious course pursued, which we with gentlemen here to follow; the system was not abolished , but modified and extended; the judges had new duties assigned to them, and their number was increased, but no judge was deprived of this office. In South-Carolina they have a court of chancery, consisting of three chancellors, and the law establishing it requires the presence of two judges to hold a court. During a recess of the legislature one of the chancellors resigned and another died. The functions of this court of consequence became suspended. All the business pending in it was put to sleep. The public prints were immediately filled with projects for destroying the court which had been denounced as unnecessary. As the citizens of the western part of the state had not participated much in the benefits derived from the court of chancery, many of the most influential of them deemed it of little utility. The opposition assumed so formidable an aspect as to determine the governor (who exercises the power of appointing judges during the recess of the legislature) not to make any appointment, believing the court would be abolished. When the legislature met an effort was made to abolish the court; but a large majority, giving to the constitution the honest meaning of its framers, considered the judges as having a life estate in their offices, provided they behaved well; and the vacancies on the chancery bench were immediately supplied.
That the national judicial establishment is comparatively more costly than are the state judiciaries, is far from being the case, I believe. It may be so in Virginia, where they have one chancellor with little salary and much business, but it is not so in other states. In South-Carolina, we have six judges at common law, at 600 sterling a year each, three chancellors at 500. each, which, together with the salaries and fees of the office of the attorney general, master in chancery, solicitors, clerks and their fees, amount to six thousand two hundred pounds sterling . And yet, Sir, justice I believe is no where cheaper than in South-Carolina. By the judicious structure of her judiciary system, the streams of justice are diffused over the whole state, and every man is completely protected in his life, liberty, property and redutation. The courts are almost constantly in session. The judges are gentlemen of high talents, integrity and strict impartiality, and every one who goes into the court of that state, not only obtains ample justice, but obtains it promptly—this, Sir, is what I call cheap justice. The gentleman from Virginia has been to notice the law which laid a direct tax, and said it was imposed when we knew the administration of this government was soon to pass from those then in power—and was resorted to as a mean of extending executive patronage, and to make provision for the friends of an expiring executive. Can the honorable gentleman be serious in all this? Does he remember when we passed this law? It was in 1793, when, I will be bold to say, the administration enjoyed the highest degree of popular favor.
(To be continued)
BOSTON, April 26.
The great majority of votes in favor of governor Strong, this year decides the election in a manner highly honorable to him, and honorable to the reputation of Massachusetts. The aggregate of the

votes in favor of the two candidates will make a difference between the last and the present year of nearly twelve thousand in favor of Mr. Strong. It is not difficult to account for this revolution in principle. Experience is always more powerful than argument in convincing the people of their true interest. Many of those who were honest in their views, tho' mistaken in their opinion of the character and designs of the new administration, and its enthusiastic adherents, from the late measures of our national administration, are now convinced and converted.
SALEM, April 26.
Extract of a letter from an American captain at Cape-Francois to his owner in Marblehead, dated April 2, 1802. After recapitulating the unjust treatment the Americans receive from the French government and relating the dreadful conflagration of the Cape, he proceeds, "In general the blacks make a vigorous resistance, and the French have not as yet been able to drive them four miles from the Cape. The country presents a grand but awful appearance; whole plantations of sugar cane are on fire at once. The blacks destroy all property as they retreat. Their numbers I am not able to inform you. Gen. Christophe commands in this neighborhood, and it is supposed he is superior in force to Le Clerk. They have been fighting constantly for 48 hours past; and the French gain no more in the fore part of the day than they lose in the after part; for they are obliged to retreat to their intrenchments in the night. The blacks are so well acquainted with the country, that they have got all the most advantageous posts, and have repeatedly attacked the French with success; once in particular, in sight of the town, the French troops were obliged to let them remain masters of the field of action. I believe the French had a better match here than they did on the Rhine. General Toussaint has sworn never to sheath his sword until he has freed again the island from Frenchmen. It is supposed that he has in the whole 80,000 men in arms in the whole island; they are said to be as well disciplined troops as any in Europe, and they will three months hence be worth three times their number of Europeans. The French have got a seven years job, and it is a chance if they conquer them in that time."

On reading the proclamation of Buonaparte to the inhabitants of St. Domingo, (says the editor of the Farmer's Museum) we could not but be affected by the strong resemblance of the substance of one part of it, to a celebrated address made to the people of the United States a short time since—"We are all—negroes! we are all white men." !!!
Extract of a letter from Bordeaux, dated 4th March.
"The regulations which existed, and may take place in the commercial laws of this country, cannot fail of being interesting to the merchants of the United States. The new code of Commercial Laws will make its appearance, in the month of April, which shall be sent you as soon as received. Until then, things will probably remain in their present state, nearly the same as before the preliminaries were signed. American vessels may now come direct from the French colonies to France, paying the same duties as if from the United States. It is thought this privilege will be continued a year, but there are no assurances of it."
"During the war, this government, as an encouragement, exempted all merchandise from duty imported in French vessels. This regulation still exists, which prevents American shipping being employed by French citizens." (Boston Cen.)
It is amusing to observe what anxiety the ministerial canters on economy evince in persuading the people to give ear to their ditties about PRESIDENTIAL SAVINGS. Two members of congress in a catalogue of equally well grounded items, in electioneering letters addressed to their constituents, have had the modesty to set down the savings in the mint establishment alone at 40,000 dollars per annum. But, behold! not a cent of this huge sum will be saved—the establishment is to be continued under the present economical administration, and whether at as little expence as heretofore, let future statements determine. It is a poor cause which must be defended by such champions, and by such arguments. Let this be a criterion whereby to judge of the rest of their vauntings. Was it by such savings as these, on paper only, that Washington and Adams saved the country? Let facts, the best eulogy of those true economists, speak. (Balt. Fed. Gaz.)
MELANCHOLY.
The schr. Nymph, captain Corlet, laden with flour and corn, having been out four days from Philadelphia, bound to Charleston (S. C.) ran aground off Cape-Loock-Out-shoals, on Friday night, 12 o'clock, 16th inst. wind N. by E. After having bilged for about half an hour, she went to pieces; the flour and corn having been previously washed over-board. The captain and crew had cut away her main-mast, in the fall of which, great part of the larboard side of the deck was carried along with it, and the boat entirely lost. The crew, consisting of 8 in number, and one passenger, every soul of whom, except our informant, John Kelly, a young Englishman, is said to have perished. The captain betook himself to a piece of the mast, and the rest to spars, &c. Kelly hung to the main wreck, and got off nearly an hour after the rest; during this time he was endeavoring to procure some part most likely to effect his escape. At last he committed himself to the billows, on what is called the trunk of the vessel. He passed all his fellow sufferers but the cook, who did not get through the breakers—when he had gotten by the captain some distance, he looked back and waved his hat, which was answered only by a shake of the head; he never saw one of them after. Floating on, and often overwhelmed by the breakers, for two days and a night, he came, at length, to within two miles of the shore, when, the wind shifting, he was driven out to sea about six miles. Thus wasted at the mercy of the waves, he was discovered about a mile off, by captain Dudley, of the schr. Hannah, from Beaufort, (N. C.) who humanely put about, and was fortunate enough to snatch this hapless victim from a watery grave.
Capt. Dudley arrived safely here last evening; he informed that several hours before he came up with Kelly, he saw flour floating on the water, as well as a trunk, in which there was nothing but a looking glass—he did not tarry to take them in.
The Nymph was owned, we are informed, partly by capt. C. and partly by Mr. Stevenson, of Charleston. [American.]
PUBLIC SENTIMENT.
If the Jacobins had any respect for the opinion of the people—and they pretend the meanest servility to it—one might urge at this time,—more however to convince than convince them—that "THE PEOPLE" are not of their party. They exulted a year ago at the change of the public sentiment:—The types of the Chronicle grew dull in bragging of the wonderful spreading of Jeffersonism . THE FARMER seemed to be laying the tablecloth for the feast of fat things; and truly for a country "Farmer" 3000 dolls. a year salary is rather fat. He promised his Master the speedy overthrow of the clergy and the federalists;—the election of Gen.

A person by the name of Vallentine Kettering, who now resides in Pennsylvania, has disclosed to the legislature of that state a medicine which he says has been found unquestionably efficacious in curing the bite of a mad dog, either in man or beast, and that it has been used by him and his ancestors 250 years.
The following is the report of the committee appointed by the legislature to hear Mr. Kettering's communications on the subject:—
"He uses the Herb called Red Chickweed, which, when ripe, or in full bloom, he gathers, and dries in the shade, reduces it to a Powder, and gives a small table spoonful at one time, to a grown person, in beer or water, in weight one drachm and one scruple; for a Child, an equal dose but given at three different times, or it may be eaten on bread with butter, honey or molasses, as the person chooses: For a Beast, a large spoonful; if by weight, two drachms and one scruple. When used green for a Beast, cut the Herb fine, and mix with bran, &c. When given to Swine, mix the powdered Herb with meal of any kind (dose as above) in little balls."
"He assures us he has given it to persons many weeks after they were bitten, never gives more than a single dose, unless to Children, as above. He further says, it is an excellent cure for cuts and wounds, on the human body."
"When green, mash it, drop of the juice into the wound, and bind the Herb so mashed, on: And that the proper time to sow the seed, is about the beginning of April, and should be sown thin."
"He also informs us, that he is now seventy-five years old; was born in Germany, and came from thence, with his Parents, to Pennsylvania, when eleven years of age; that his Mother brought the Seeds of the Herb amongst her Garden Seeds: That he has presented to your committee, for the use of the members a quantity of the Herb and Seed; and says he will give of the seed to others, who will please to call on him for that purpose."
"They also learn, from the Reverend Henry Muhlenburg, that it is an annual Plant, known in Switzerland and Germany, by the name of Gauchheil, Rother Meyer, or Rother Heinerdarm; in England, red Pimpernel; by Botanists, as he is informed, Anagalis Phoenicea. That it should be gathered in June, when in full blossom. In Germany, he understands, the usual dose was thirty grains of the powder, taken four times a day, and continued one week, in smaller doses; the wound washed with a decoction of the herb, and some of the powder strewed in it. That the plant is cultivated in many gardens and grows near Baltimore and Havre de Grace, spontaneously in great plenty."
Balance.
A dispute lately took place in Paris between a military man and an apothecary. The soldier insisted upon satisfaction from his adversary, and appointed a meeting next morning in the Bois de Boulogne. The next morning the apothecary waited upon his antagonist before the hour appointed, and said to him with great coolness, "You are a military, I am a medical man— you understand the use of the sword and pistol—I am only acquainted with drugs. You are the challenger, therefore I have a right to choose my weapon. Here are two pills; one is poisoned, the other is not. Do you choose one and swallow it, and I will swallow the other." The officer laughed very heartily at this proposition, and they sat down to breakfast very good friends. (Lon. pap.)

VALUABLE MEDICINES.
SAMUEL BISHOP, STATIONER and BOOKSELLER, Respectfully informs the public that he has received a fresh supply of the following esteemed Medicines from Lee and Co. Baltimore, who have appointed him their only Vendor in Alexandria.
HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES. FOUR YEARS
Have scarcely elapsed since the introduction of HAMILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES into general use, yet in this short period upwards of
One Hundred and Twenty Thousand
Persons of both sexes, of every age, and in every situation have received benefit from this extraordinary remedy, in various complaints arising from worms and from obstructions in the stomach and bowels.
This medicine, which is as innocent and mild as it is certain and efficacious in its operation, cannot injure the youngest infant, or the most delicate pregnant lady, should no worms exist in the body; but will, without pain or griping, cleanse the stomach and bowels, removing whatever is foul or offensive within, particularly that slimy humor from whence worms and many fatal disorders proceed.
Children generally take this medicine with eagerness; having a pleasing appearance, and an agreeable taste.
A dose of this medicine given occasionally 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.
The celebrity acquired by the Worm Lozenges, particularly in the city of Baltimore, renders the further publication of certificates in their favor, an unnecessary expense.
Description of Worms, and the symptoms by which they are known.
Worms which infest the human body, are chiefly of four kinds, viz. the Teres 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—tearing and grinding of the teeth in sleep—irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food, and sometimes voracious—Purging, with slimy and foetid stools—Vomiting—Large and hard belly—Pains and tickles 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—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.
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, &c. &c.
And is proved by long and extensive experience to be absolutely unparalled in the cure of
 Nervous disorders,  Consumption,  Lowness of spirits,  Lots of appetite,  Impurity of the blood,  Hysterical affections,  Inward weakness,  Seminal weakness,  Folur albus, (or whites)  Barrenness,  Violent cramps in the stomach and back,  Indigestion,  Melancholy,  Gout in the stomach,  Pains in the limbs,  Relaxations,  Involuntary emissions,  Obstinate gleet,  Impotency, &c. &c. 
The principal operations of this remedy is in the stomach, restoring the digestive powers, and sending from that organ new health and vigor into every part of the system; it enriches and purifies the blood without inflaming it; braces, without stimulating too violently the nervous system; strengthens the secretory vessels and the general habit; brings back the muscular fibres to their natural and healthy tone; and restores that nutrition which immoderate evacuations have destroyed, and whose loss had thrown the whole frame into languor and debility.
The Restorative is absolutely above all recommendation in removing those weaknesses and infirmities with which many females are afflicted, the consequences of difficult and painful labours, or of injudicious treatment therein.
The most obstinate seminal gleet, and the most distressing cases of fluor albus in females, fall particularly under the province of this restorative—speedily yield to its benign operation, and are radically cured, by correcting and purifying the acrimonious humors, restoring a proper degree of tension to the relaxed fibres, and strengthening the weakened organs.
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.
DR. HAMILTON'S ESSENCE AND EXTRACT OF MUSTARD,
A safe and effectual remedy for rheumatism, gout, palsy, sprains and bruises, white swellings, old strains, and relaxations, numbness, weakness of the joints, stiffness of the neck, pains of the side, head ache, twilled faces, frozen limbs, and every similar complaint. It prevents chilblains, or chopped hands, and the ill effects of getting wet or damp in the feet.
The extract is celebrated for removing cold & windy complaints in the stomach and bowels, flying pains, and other spasmodic affections.
The testimony of thousands, and daily experience, sufficiently prove the superiority of the above medicine over all others, in the cure of the maladies we have enumerated.
DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR.
A sovereign remedy for Colds, Obsolete Coughs, Asthmas, Catarrhs, 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 affords immediate relief, checks the progress, and in a short time entirely removes the most cruel disorder to which children are liable—the Elixir is perfectly agreeable and the dose so small, that no difficulty arises in taking it.
DR. HAHN'S ANTI-BILLIOUS PILLS.
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 secretions—to restore and amend the appetite—to procure a free perspiration, and thereby prevent colds, which are often attended with fatal consequences—a dose never fails to remove a cold, if taken on its first appearance. They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness—sickness at the stomach, and severe head ache—and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate.
THE SOVEREIGN OINTMENT for the ITCH,
Which is warranted an infallible remedy at one application, and may be used with perfect safety by pregnant women, or on infants a week old, not containing a particle of mercury, or any other dangerous ingredient whatever, and is not accompanied with that tormenting smart which attends the application of other remedies.
THE GENUINE PERSIAN LOTION,
So celebrated among the fashionable throughout Europe, is an invaluable cosmetic, perfectly innocent and safe, free from corrosive and repolent minerals (the basis of other lotions) and of unparalleled efficacy in preventing and removing blemishes in the face and skin of every kind, particularly freckles, pimples, inflammatory redness, scurfs, tatters, ring worms, sun burns, prickly heat, remature wrinkles, &c. rendering the skin delicate, fine and clear, improving the complexion, and prolonging the bloom of youth.
THE DAMASK LIP SALVE.
THE RESTORATIVE POWDER for the TEETH and GUMS.
DR. HAHN'S TRUE and GENUINE GERMANY CORN PLAISTER.
An infallible remedy for corns, speedily removing them, root and branch, without given 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; defluxions of rheum, dullness, itching and humors 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 all kinds of Head-Ache. CHURCH'S HEAD DROPS. INFALLIBLE AGUE AND FEVER DROPS. For the cure of Agues, Remittent and Intermitant Fevers.
VENEREAL DISEASE.
Those whom this may unfortunately concern, are informed that a supply has now been received of
THE PATENT INDIAN VEGETABLE SPECIFIC, Prepared by Dr. Leroux.
The experience of several thousands who have been cured by this medicine (a great proportion of them after the skill of eminent physicians had proved unsuccessful) demonstrate its efficacy in expelling the Venereal Poisons however deeply rooted in the constitution, and in counteracting those dreadful effects which often result from the improper use of mercury.
The mildness of the Vegetable Specific is equal to its surprising efficacy, its operation is so gentle; that it is given to venereal patients in a state of pregnancy, with the utmost safety, and performs a cure without disturbing the system, or producing any of those disagreeable effects inseparable from the common remedies.
With the medicine is given a description of the symptoms which obtain in every stage of the disease, with copious directions for their treatment, so as to accomplish a perfect cure in the shortest time, and with the least inconvenience possible. ANDERSON'S PILLS. GOWLAND'S LOTION.
A liberal allowance made wholesale purchasers by application to Lee & Co. Baltimore. Country Printers and Storekeepers will find it advantageous to keep a constant supply of the above Medicines, and will be treated with on liberal terms. Lee & Co. will give the highest prices in cash for BLACK SNAKE ROOT, GINSENG and BEE'S WAX. November 16.

THE THOROUGH BRED HORSE
MONTALTA,
WILL stand at my stable and be let to mares the present season, at Sixteen Dollars, or Eight Dollars the leap, and Twenty Four Dollars to ensure a mare with foal, and Half a Dollar, in each instance, to the groom. The money for the leap must be sent with the mares—notes for the season must be sent with the mares also, which may be discharged by the payment of twelve dollars on or before the last day of July, at which time the season will expire. The season commences on the first day of April. Mares will be fed with grain, if required, at the market price. Good and extensive pasturage gratis. All possible care will be used to guard against accidents and escape, tho' I will not be answerable for either.
MONTALTA was got by Colonel Homes's imported horse Bedford, whose character and pedigree stands so high, both in England and America, as to need no comment from me. His dam, as certified by Daniel Carroll Brent, Esq., of Richland, who bred her, was got by Lindfay's Arabian, her dam was young Selima, her grand dam Mr. William Brent's Ebony, her great grand dam Colonel Taskoe's imported Selima. Ebony's sire was Col. Tayloe's imported Othello. Young Selima's sire was Col. Baylor's imported Fearnought. This blood is also so well known to, and in such high estimation with gentlemen who have been and are now on the turf, that I shall only add, that Montalta's colour, high form, marks, &c. are admired by all who have seen him. He is full 15 1/2 hands high, and will be five years old next May.
