Late Foreign Intelligence.
CONSTANTINOPLE, August 10.
Since the fulfilment of the convention of Cairo, on the 10th of July, no new advices of importance have been received from Egypt. According to private letters, the garrison of Alexandria has made a fruitless sally, in which they had lost a great number of men. The official accounts only mention, that the troops of the Grand Vizier and capt. Pacha, immediately after the taking of Cairo, had advanced against Alexandria, in the vicinity of which their leaders likewise were expected on the first of this month. General Menou has refused to accede to the convention of Cairo.
The report that the Russian Ambassador gen. Tamara, has been recalled is not confirmed.
The Spanish envoy, the Chevalier de Ceral, has not yet had his audience of the Grand Seignor.
August 15.
On the 5th inst. a Tartar came to the hotel of Lord Elgin, who said he had arrived from the coast of Syria with advice of the taking of Alexandria: but this account was so confused that it was soon evident it had no foundation, but reports he had heard in Syria. No English official accounts have been received on the subject. The principal object of the Tartar appears to have been to obtain money from Lord Elgin for his good news.
We are assured that a great change may soon be expected in our ministry. Successors are talked of for the Caimacan, the Reis Effendi, and even the Grand Vizier. The different parties are very active, and those persons who have been very quiet since the late misfortunes of the French in Italy, are now coming again on the stage. They are called the Jacobin Mussulmen.
The Porte is now employed in taking measures for the future administration of Cairo and the Egyptian provinces. Presents have been sent to the officers of the Turkish and English armies; among which, besides many diamonds, watches, swords, &c. are 170 marten skins, worth from 2 to 5000 paisters each.
On the 2d, the new Hospodar of Moldavia set out from hence for Jassy, with his whole family, a numerous retinue, and an escort of Janissaries. By the way he was attacked by a great body of armed banditti, who took from him all his effects, to the value of 100,000 paisters, and detained him and his family till they shall be ransomed with a still greater sum. The Porte has sent a considerable detachment of troops against the robbers.
(PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.)
BERLIN, September 12,
The intercourse of our Court with foreign powers has still the character of a good understanding however multifarious and important the circumstances may be on which negotiations have been opened. Delays have indeed arisen with the ministry of Buonaparte, which, however, are so far removed, that no breach of friendship can thence result; and a well founded hope may be entertained, that the present harmony will continue. To this the way is particularly opened by the concession on our side, that the Grand Duke of Tuscany, under certain conditions, stipulated in our Court, shall be indemnified in Germany. The notification of the result of the negotiation on the subject of the indemnification of the House of Orange. In which France has been the mediator, is looked for with impatience. After the removal of the first great difficulties which present themselves, the business will be concluded to the satisfaction of the parties. But as this is connected with other indemnifications, and concerns the taking possession of new countries the Convention will not be made publicly known till these measures take place, and then a formal renunciation of the Stadtholdership, by the House of Orange, will be published.
In the affairs of Italy we have an interest in common with Russia, particularly in favor of the king of Sardinia. On the other hand the Russian Court interests itself in the Electorate of Hanover, and the evacuation of it by our troops. His majesty, however, still delays this evacuation, which England labors to obtain, because, till the complete conclusion of the German territorial arrangements, the occupation of the territory of Hanover is a measure of political precaution. In the mean time, new contracts for provisioning the Prussian troops in Hanover till the month of October are concluded. About that period his majesty's ambassador
to the court of London, Baron Jacob Kloft who had quitted that situation on leave, and is now at the baths of Toplitz, but more on account of the awkward situation in which he would have found himself, in the present circumstances, at London, than for the restoration of health will again return to the British court.
It is said, the Prussian troops in this place, from South Prussia and Silesia, will remain here till every thing is arranged for acting as circumstances may require.
VIENNA, September 3.
A very important change has just taken place in the Austrian Ministry. The Count de Colloredo, who during Count Cobentzel's stay in France, had filled the office of prime minister, has just retired. It is said that his retreat is a complete disgrace. The Countess, his wife who occupied the first office about the Empress, has also been dismissed.
The dismissal of these two personages is the subject of much discussion, it is generally attributed to a court intrigue. The affairs of state will in future be divided between Count de Cobentzel and Count Trautmanstorff.
September 9.
An approaching change in the ministry was talked of several days since. This has now taken place, but it proves to be of a different kind from what was expected, as it only relates to the Privy Council, which hitherto consisted of six ministers of state and four counsellors, whose employments were separate, and who never conferred together on public affairs. This council has been abolished, or rather it has received another form, and will now discuss all affairs in the presence of his Imperial Majesty. The number of members is limited to four, at the head of whom is the Arch Duke Charles, as President of the Aulic Council of war; next to him is Count Collowrath, as minister for the affairs of the Interior. The third member is Count Trautmanstorff; and the fourth Count Louis de Cobentzel.
The son of the chief Physician of the Grand Seignor is arrived here from Constantinople, to study Medicine; he must first learn Latin.
The mutinous Janissaries of Belgrade, who still kept the Pacha of that city in confinement, begin to want provisions. No communication is permitted with them on the side of Austria. A number of Austrian troops are assembled in the vicinity of Belgrade, as corps of observation; and General Jellachich is arrived at Semlin. As the rebellious Janissaries have not received succour they expected from Widen; and Turkish troops are on their march for Belgrade, it is expected they will be compelled to come to an accommodation.
Mr. Drummond, the new English envoy to the Neapolitan Court, has already passed through the city of Prague, on his way to the place of his destination.
MUNSTER, Sept. 11.
The day before yesterday was a day rendered important to the city by the election of a Prince Bishop. The chapter assembled at nine in the morning to proceed to the election; about ten his excellency the commissary of election, attended by a train of the nobility in 20 carriages, proceeded from the palace to the cathedral, where under a canopy prepared for them in the choir, they waited the formal declaration that the election had fallen on his royal highness the Archduke Anthony Victor, in whose name his excellency Baron Von Spiegel, as plenipotentiary of the new elected prince, accepted the election. Te Deum was then performed, and the train returned in the same order to the palace.
MENTZ, September 8.
The exportation of corn upon the Rhine is forbidden, even to Prussian subjects, on which account the government in Westphalia entered a protestation. The resident of his Prussian majesty came hither from Frankfort to make representations on the subject in the written remonstrance of another German court. Among other things, it is said, that the French legation at Radstadt, on the 4th of May, of the year 6, had formally admitted the right of the German nation to a free navigation on the Rhine, which right was accepted by the deputation of the empire on the 14th of May, 1793; that the peace of Luneville had not abolished this right, but rather established all the political relations then adjusted, and that France surely could not mean to conclude a peace and violate it at the same time.
MILAN, August 28.
A squadron from Tunis, of four large xebecs, is cruising in the Italian seas.
HAGUE, Sept. 12.
The following is an extract of a letter from Paris: "Though the reports relative to the negotiations for peace between England and our republic are extremely various, it seems probable that these negotiations have now taken a more favorable turn. The account in the Moniteur of the holding an extraordinary council of state, at which the first consul presided, the conferences between the minister for foreign affairs and the envoys from Vienna and Petersburg, and the frequent arrival and departure of dispatches from and to London, give reason to believe that the negotiation is now conducted with more seriousness. All these circumstances have had an influence on the funds which have risen to 84."
It appears to be agreed that the Prince of Orange shall receive the bishopricks of Wurtemberg and Bamberg, for an indemnification.
HAMBURG, Sept. 15.
The important establishment of the four first Vienna houses here, viz. Fier, Ochs, Gessmuller, and Artteiner, under the firm of Foga and Co. the first letters of their names, for the purpose of raising the Austrian funds, which are so much depressed, have been now open for eight days, and in great activity. There can be no doubt but the plan will be successful, as the first houses here have a good understanding with them, and the funds are already rising.
Notwithstanding the Prussian protest, and all the other obstacles, the Cathedral Chapter of Munster has held an election, and chosen for their Prince Bishop, Prince Anthony Victor of Austria, brother to the present Emperor, and 22 years of age. Every body is much astonished and look anxiously to the further proceedings of the Austrian cabinet in this delicate affair. Thus much is now clear, that between Prussia and Austria there does not prevail a good understanding respecting the indemnities of the empire: and that the one wishes to snatch the best morsel from the mouth of the other, and, therefore, the cabinet of Vienna thinks the present a favorable opportunity, for if the states of Cologne and Munster are in the hands of an Austrian prince, who always resides at Vienna, they may be considered as Austrian provinces. At any rate one of the Archdukes is provided for; and if he loses this new acquisition, the Emperor is obliged to indemnify him. The Prussian cabinet, however, is not of a disposition to be sported with, and, therefore, the result of the proceeding of the Court of Vienna will probably give serious displeasure to the King, and the consequences may be more serious than is expected. Some people already consider the war as renewed; others consider the French as the cause of this, and that they will take part with the Emperor against the King of Prussia. The line of conduct the Emperor may adopt will soon explain this matter.
All the letters from Frankfort state, that the market for English goods is not at all favorable this fair, because the measures on the left side of the Rhine, for the prevention of the importation of contraband goods, are so rigid, that nobody will buy for the French market. Besides the place is so much overstocked, that many people are obliged to sell at 25 per cent. loss, to be able to honor their acceptances.
The Jews take advantage of circumstances, and purchase at this price to be resold at the fair of Leipzig, which will begin in a fortnight.
September 18.
As the Duke of Modena will not accept of the Brisgan, Buonaparte and Talleyrand have made a new plan of indemnity in Germany; but the two principal German courts, those of Berlin and Vienna, have not yet given their opinion.
The trial of the arrested emigrants at Bayone, began there on the 9th inst. at three o'clock in the afternoon. Inbert Colomes in particular was examined, and several papers were presented to him. The result of the trial is not yet known, and it looks as if the trial would take up some time.
HANOVER, Sept. 15.
Count Munster, and Mr. Paller, Secretary of Legation, left this place yesterday for London, and it is universally thought that their mission relates to our present political situation.
The following is the proclamation lately issued by our government:
HANOVER, Sept. 20, 1801.
The troops of his Prussian Majesty, being authorized to occupy a part of the German dominions of his Britannic Majesty, it follows that according to established rules and privileges, these troops must have safe conduct as long as they are allowed to continue in their quarters here. In pursuance of this it is ordered and commanded to all subjects of his Britannic Majesty in his German dominions, under penalty of imprisonment not to give occasion in any manner whatever to desertion amongst the Prussian troops, during their occupation of the said German dominions, and particularly on their intended evacuation; but to give notice where such deserters are to be found; if possible to take them up, and to deliver them to their nearest commanding officer, or to our nearest magistrate.
This is to be noticed and strictly observed by all servants of the government, to be printed and affixed in all places of public resort.
(Signed,)
KIRTMANSEGG.
LONDON, Sept. 22.
A Cabinet Council was held this day on the subject of the negotiation, which has been so long carrying on between this country and France, by means of Couriers. All the cabinet ministers were summoned. Something must be speedily determined. It will be impossible to keep the people from grumbling if there be much more delay in this business.
Dispatches were yesterday received from lord Nelson in the Downs, after which a full board was held at the admiralty, which is a very unusual thing on a Sunday.
September 23.
Private letters from Constantinople of the 10th of August, state, that according to the last accounts which had reached that place, nothing of the least importance had been done towards the reduction of Alexandria. Menou had been a second time summoned to surrender; but he wholly disregarded the notification, except by returning a positive refusal to accede to the proposed terms of capitulation, and by repeating his unalterable resolution to defend the place to the last extremity. The hopes of the final triumph of the allied armies in this contest are strongly expressed in these letters, and the arrival of a few thousand men to reinforce Menou's scanty number of troops, instead of being a means of protracting the campaign, is viewed as the very circumstance which would compel the French commander to agree to an immediate surrender. The army of the late Mourad Bey, now under the command of Osman Bey, has, it appears, made a general submission, and is now wholly united to the Allied Forces. The French prisoners who have been for a considerable time confined in different castles of the Black Sea, have been lately recalled by a ferman, for the purpose of being exchanged, and they arrived about the beginning of August in Constantinople. It is supposed that these prisoners will immediately be sent to Toulon, and that an equal number of Turks will be returned, who may have been taken prisoners by the French in Egypt. The noted Jean Bon St. Andre is among the number of these prisoners, and it is said that neither his health nor spirits have been at all impaired by his long imprisonment.
Yesterday a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office in Downing Street, at which most of the members assisted. Mr. Addington left town for Wimbledon, about four o'clock, as did lord Hawkesbury for Rochampton. A messenger was in waiting at lord Hawkesbury's office last night, and expected every moment to set off with dispatches for Vienna.
It is whispered that some diplomatic changes are again in contemplation, which will bring some of those Statesmen now in retirement again upon the stage.
Prince of Wales.—To satisfy the anxious enquiries into the state of his Royal Highness's health, a bulletin has been regularly issued at the Pavilion at Brighton since this day's fortnight. That of last Saturday was in the following terms:
BULLETIN.—"His royal highness the prince of Wales still continues to suffer pain and inconvenience from his accident; but his Royal Highness is perfectly well in health."
His royal highness we learn, complains principally of his back, but the fall was

violent, that almost every muscle has felt the painful effect of it. He quits his bed only to make use of the tap'd bath, which is prepared in an adjoining room, and to and from which he is under the necessity of being carried by his attendants.
Sir H. B. Hayes, whose sentence is mitigated to transportation for life to Botany Bay, during his confinement conducted himself in a manner truly eccentric. The room in which he was confined was hung with black crape, and the dead march was performed on a barrel organ when at dinner. He went to receive sentence with an illegitimate son on his right hand, and his legitimate son on his left. The latter was so much affected when sentence of death was passed on his unfortunate parent that he is now in a fever, and his despair'd off. A sergeant of the fifty first regiment, who is supposed a poor lunatic Freemason, wrote a letter, when general Meadows was at Cork, proposing to release the Knight. The letter was intercepted and the man has been tried by a court martial.
September 24.
By recent accounts from Italy, it appears that the French have not yet given up the belief of the possibility of relieving Menou's army. It is reported, however that instead of reinforcing him by troops sent directly to Egypt, which they have so repeatedly found impracticable, they mean to relieve him by forcing the Porte to withdraw the Turkish forces from Egypt, in which case they would only have the English to contend with in that quarter. The means intended for the accomplishment of this object is an attack upon the Imperial Ottoman dominions in Europe, for which 40,000 French troops are assembled in different Italian ports, under the command of gen. Murat, brother-in-law of the First Consul, from whence they expect to be able to effect a passage (probably by the Adriatic) in spite of all our watching and naval superiority.
A private letter from Petersburg, of the 20th of August, states, that the Emperor Alexander is extremely beloved by all ranks of subjects, and that his manners are of the most conciliating nature. He is in the habit of riding round the city in a common carriage, and so little does he affect parade, that he is generally attended only by a single servant. Those who recognize his person, are accustomed merely to bow as he passes them, but without paying him that marked attention which can attract the notice of the multitude. The people seem to be quite as much at their ease as during the reign of Catharine, and all the absurd restraints on the habits of private life, instituted by the late Emperor, are wholly removed. The preparations for the coronation were of the most magnificent kind; so high were expectations formed of the approaching solemnity, that every vacant house in Moscow was very long since hired by some illustrious foreigner, and at the time when the letter is dated, scarce a single lodging could be obtained on any terms; it was generally supposed that the grandeur of the spectacle would exceed even the magnificence which distinguished the coronation of the celebrated Catharine. The number of foreigners who have lately arrived at Petersburg, many of whom are, no doubt, attracted by the prospect of so grand a spectacle, is so great as almost to exceed belief. During the continuance of the dispute with the Russian Court, the English officers in the Russian service were sent to Moscow, where, by the particular command of the late Emperor, they were treated in the kindest manner.
FALMOUTH, Sept. 21.
The Chesterfield packet, with the American mail of the 2d inst. is still detained for the government despatches.
September 28.
Arrived his majesty's brig Childers, captain Crawford, from the squadron under the command of Sir Edward Pellew, off Rochfort. On the 11th inst. near Sable's Olonnes, she fell in with a convoy of French vessels, in charge of a brig of war and a schooner, which on perceiving the Childers, took shelter under the batteries of that place. The Childers, in attempting to cut them off from the land, was fired at from the batteries, a shot from one of which hitting one of her guns, split and wounded some of the men; and tho' the enemy kept up an incessant fire from the batteries, she succeeded in taking possession of one brig laden with ordnance stores, which she sent for Plymouth. It appears that the attempt to burn the French squadron at Rochfort has been abandoned,
they being so well protected by the batteries that it is thought to be hazardous. A new ship, the Hero, of 74 guns, has been lately launched at Rochestor, and has joined the French squadron. Sir Edward Pellew's has suffered some damage in a gale of wind, which lasted from the 5th to the 7th inst.
PORTSMOUTH, Sept. 23.
His majesty's ship Aggressor has detained and sent into this port, the American booner John, capt. Cheater, from Baltimore.
EAST-INDIA HOUSE.
Yesterday a quarterly general court was held at the East India House pursuant to charter. After the last minutes were read,
Mr. Rock wished to know whether certain accounts of the neat profit and loss of the company ought not to be laid before the court.
Mr. Chairman, (Mr. Mills) stated that the accounts alluded to had been produced in March last.
Mr. Rock observed, that his object was to ascertain the exact amount of the company's debt. The late President of the Board of Control having stated it to be twelve millions, whilst an hon. proprietor (Mr. Jones) had asserted it in Parliament to be twenty millions; these were the gross contradictions which he was anxious to have reconciled.
Mr. David Scott said, that the statement of Mr. Dundas was made up from correct accounts furnished by the company's officers, and that the general court had not any thing to do with the mere ipse dixit of a member of parliament.
After a few words from Mr. Bofanquet in support of Mr. Scott's assertion, the court adjourned sine die.
The court of directors of the East-India company have resolved, in order to preserve due respect and attention to the officers of their marine in India, who, on important occasions, especially during war, are associated with the military, and assisting in operations of warlike nature, that certain rank shall be assigned their marine officers, corresponding with those of the military, viz.
That the commodores have equal rank with the colonels in the army.
The captains of the larger vessels of 28 guns and upwards, equal rank with lieut. colonels in the army.
The captains of smaller vessels, under 28 guns, equal rank with majors in the army.
The first lieutenants equal rank with captains in the army.
And the second lieutenants equal rank with lieutenants in the army.
In all cases the dates of their respective commissions are to regulate the precedence of the military or marine officers.
Dispatches were this morning received from Sir John Borlase Warren. It has since been reported, that from a merchant vessel he had received information of lord Keith's fleet having captured a French convoy, bound for Egypt.
We are extremely happy to announce, that yesterday passed by Portsmouth, for the Downs the Acafo and Lowefossic frigates, with the Raikes, Newton, and a large fleet under convoy from Jamaica: two ships and two brigs names unknown, are on shore off Steinager.
This day the Hamburg Mail arrived, which has brought us the following intelligence:
MUNICH, Sept. 11.
It is confirmed, that the cabinets of Berlin, and Paris, are agreed on the subject of the secularizations, and that the Envoys of these powers at Ratisbon, will proceed in the protocol conference, to take further measures for the complete adjustment of this affair. The diet, it is believed, will concur by a deputation, consisting of at most, four members.
DOVER, Sept. 20.
A French flag of truce with dispatches arrived very early yesterday morning, and another late last night, and this morning dispatches were forwarded by a flag of truce from Calais. The Virginian lugger is arrived here to be stationed constantly, for the purpose of forwarding flags of truce.

Capt. Smith, of the sch'r Traveller, informs us, that an embargo was to take place at the Havanna the day after he failed.
Arrived, ship Arethusa Banker, Bristol. The ship Josiah Collins, Cotterell, arrived at Liverpool from this port 10th September.
Sch'r Traveller, Smith, in 17 days from Havanna. Nov. 5, in lat. 35 32, long. 73 39, spoke brig Diligent out 50 days from Hamburg, bound to Charleston. The sch'r Eliza failed the day before us for N. York. Left there schooner Only Daughter of N. York, to sail in 8 days. September 16.
By the ship Commerce, from Hamburg, we have received files of the Gazette de Hamburg, "to the 22d of September — They contain no information of importance. The following are the only articles which we think worthy of a translation from the Hamburg Gazette of the 21st September.
It appears that the Belligerent powers find great difficulty in settling the BASIS OF NEGOTIATION. It is now six months since the diplomatic farce began — and the preliminary principles are not fixed. They endeavor to alarm each other by false appearances. Invasion on the one part is loudly proclaimed — while defence on the other is vigorously prepared. The last accounts, however which have passed between the Cabinets of London and the Thuilleries, appear, from the best accounts, to wear categorical form, and in a short period we may expect to see the result. The probable consequence, from the best source of information, is that the Basis will not be agreed upon; and that bella, horrida bella! will burst forth with redoubled fury.
COPENHAGEN, Sept. 16. Our gazette of this day announces that the British government has refused to restore our possessions in the West-Indies. they persist in demanding a right to sequestrate the French, Dutch, and Spanish property, found in the islands; while our government demands not only the restitution of the islands and property found therein, but a full restitution for the damages which the islands and individuals have suffered from the invasions of the English. It is hoped that this affair will yet be amicably settled.
Ship Commerce, Rockwell, 50 days from Hamburg. Left the Elbe the 22d September, in company with the ship Pennsylvania, York, and brig William, both for Philadelphia. Left at Hamburg the following vessels: brig Vigilant, Driscoll, bound to the Mississippi, ready for sea; ship Mercury, Butler, and ship Bedford, Brown, for New-York, to sail soon; ship Amethyst, Rogers, for Boston; brig Glory, for New-York; sch'r Cynthia, Andrews, for Salem, in four days; brig Dumphy, had just arrived in the Elbe, and two American schooners lay at Cuxhaven, supposed to have just arrived. — Capt. Rockwell, on his passage, received on board his ship, from the British armed brig Star, (bound to England from the Cape of Good Hope) the master of a Spanish vessel which the brig had captured, bound to Porto Rico from Senegal, with slaves. This gentleman left Senegal the 22d September; and informs that captain Rogers, in an American ship, failed thence the 5th Sept. and a copper bottomed sch'r from New-York, of which Mr. Richoux, Frenchman, was supercargo, the 18th September, both for Hamburg, and both laden with gum. A brig arrived there from Salem the 18th, and a copper bottomed schooner, Williams, from Hamburg, the 20th September. There were several other American vessels then at Senegal, of which this gentleman could give no particular account. On the 27th September, capt. Rockwell passed the ship Alexandria, of Baltimore, in the mouth of the British channel, bound up, and on his passage spoke the following vessels: October 18th, in long 31, 30, the ship Benjamin, of Pepperelburgh, from Liverpool, bound to Boston, out 25 days. 30th, in long. 57, 30, ship Merrimac, Williams, from Salem, bound to the River La Plate. 31st, in long. 56, sch'r Polly, from Lisbon to Philadelphia, out 33 days.

Capt. M'Dougal staid by the brig all that night and the next day, when capt. Coleman, finding the leak to increase on him so fast that it would be impossible to save the vessel, requested capt. M'Dougal to take the crew on board, which he did, and bro't them all in with him.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20.
Died, on Wednesday evening, after a long and severe attack of the gout, ROBERT CRIGHTON, esq. aged 67, late of the island of Jamaica, where he resided forty years. This gentleman was in this country when under the regal government — having served in the Medical Department of the army, in the unfortunate campaign of the ill fated Braddock, and on that occasion belonged to the same mess with the illustrious Washington, and the then second in command, Sir Peter Hacket.
From the Washington Federalist. Messrs. EDITORS, A publication in your paper of this day appearing to be intended to convey a belief that my late resignation of the appointment of chief clerk in the department of war, was compulsory or designed to elude a dismissal: I beg that you will make my assertion equally public, that since general Dearborn's superintendence of the department, he has uniformly treated me with politeness, and in a high degree given me his confidence; and that my resignation was in no respect founded on any apprehension that he was desirous of my leaving the office; indeed, if I had entertained any such apprehension, it would have been completely removed by his request that I would continue in the office, nearly three months after my intimation that I wished to be permitted to resign.

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 LO- ZENGES into general use, yet in this short pe- riod upwards of
One Hundred and Twenty Thousand Persons of both sexes, of every age, and in every situation have received benefit from this extraor- dinary 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 sto- mach and bowels, removing whatever is foul or offensive within, particularly that slimy humor from whence worms and many fatal disorders pro- ceed.
Children generally take this medicine with ea- gerness, 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 de- stroys 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 instructi- ons are given for every part of the necessary treat- ment 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 chief- ly of four kinds, viz. the Terec 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 feet—Convulsions and epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—Starting and grinding of the teeth in sleep—Irregular ap- petite, 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—Exces- sive thirst—Sometimes pale and unhealthy coun- tenance, and sometimes the face bloated and flushed.
Persons afflicted with any of the above symp- toms, should have immediate recourse to HA- MILTON'S WORM DESTROYING LO- ZENGES, which have been constantly attend- ed 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 vari- ous complaints which result from dissipated plea- sures—juvenile indiscretions—residence in cli- mates unfavourable to the constitution—the im- moderate 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. &c.
And is proved by long and extensive experience to be absolutely unparalleled in the cure of Nervous disorders, Violent cramps in the Consumptions, stomach and back, Lowness of spirits, Indigestion, Lots of appetite, Melancholy, Impurity of the blood, Gout in the stomach, Hysterical affections, Pains in the limbs, Inward weaknesses, Relaxations, Seminal weaknesses, Involuntary emissions, Folur albus, (or whites) Obsolete gleet, Barrenness, 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 pu- rifies the blood without instantiating it; braces, with- out 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 nutri- tion which in moderate evacuations have destroyed, and whose loss had thrown the whole frame into languor and debility.
The Restorative is absolutely above all recom- mendation in removing those weaknesses and in- firmities 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 par- ticularly 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 preva- lence 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 re- pair, a perseverance in the use of this medicine has performed the most astonishing cures.
Dr. HAMILTON'S ESSENCE AND EX- TRACT OF MUSTARD,
A safe and effectual remedy for rheumatism, gout, palsy, sprains and bruises, white swellings, lumbago, and relaxation, numbness and weak- ness of the joints, stiffness of the neck, pains of the side, head ache, swelled faces, frozen limbs, and every similar complaint. It prevents chil- drens, or chapped hands, and their effects of get- ting wet or damp in the feet.
The extract is celebrated for removing cold & windy complaints in the stomach and bowels' fly- ing pains, and other spasmodic affections.
The testimony of thousands, and daily experi- ence, sufficiently prove the superiority of the above medicine over all others, in the cure of the mala- dies we have enumerated.
Dr. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR, A sovereign remedy for Colds, Obsolete Coughs, Asthmas, Catarrhs, Sore Throats, and Ap- proaching Consumption.
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 cru- el 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 situ- tion, and of every age.
They are excellently adapted to carry off super- fluous bile, and prevent its morbid secretions—to re-tone 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 re- moving habitual costiveness—sickness at the sto- mach, 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 through- out Europe, is an invaluable cosmetic, perfectly innocent and safe, free from corrosive and repel- lent minerals (the basis of other lotions) and of unparalleled efficacy in preventing and removing blemishes in the face and skin of every kind, par- ticularly freckles, pimples, inflammatory redness, scurfs, tatters, ring worms, sun burns, prickly heat, premature wrinkles, &c. rendering the skin delicately soft and clear, improving the complex- ion, and restoring the bloom of youth.
The DAMASK LIP SALVE. The RESTORATIVE POWDER for the TEETH and GUMS.
Dr. HAHN'S TRUE AND GENUINE GER- MAN CORN PLAISTER. An infallible remedy for corns, speedily remov- ing 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 ac- cident, defluxions of rheum, dullness, itching and films on the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small pox, measles and fevers, and wonderfully strengthen- ing 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 COUGH DROPS. INFALLIBLE AGUE and FEVER DROPS, For the cure of Agues, Remittent and Inter- mittent 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 ineffectual) demonstrate its efficacy in ex- pelling the Venereal Poison however deeply root- ed in the constitution, and in counteracting those dreadful effects which often result from the im- proper 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 produc- ing 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 dis- ease, 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 whole- sale purchasers by application to Lee & Co. Baltimore. Country Printers and Store- keepers 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.
