BRITISH AFFAIRS.
DEBATE
In committee of the whole on the state of the union—Mr. J. C. Smith in the chair—on the resolution offered by Mr. Gregg.
[CONTINUED.]
MR. J. CLAY. I had entertained a hope that the call of my colleague would have been detained for a few days longer, as the documents we have received from the treasury department have been but two days on our table, at least in a printed form, and as they are calculated to throw much light on the subject before us. In the few remarks which I am about to offer, I shall not follow my colleague through the detail he has made of the injuries and insults of Great Britain. We all of us well know that the national flag has been grossly outraged and the national honor violated by her. But I do not conceive that the best mode of obtaining redress for these wrongs is to do that which will be more injurious to ourselves than to her. My objections to this resolution are two fold. The first is that, if carried into effect, it places greater means of injuring us in the hands of our enemy than she already possesses; and the second, that we shall not be able to maintain the course it points out for any length of time.
By the resolution before us we are prohibited from importing from Great Britain, any articles, however necessary or convenient they may be; while at the same time we are permitted to carry any articles to her market. The effect will be that while our productions are accumulating in the hands of the British manufacturers and merchants they will have no means of paying for them. And of consequence debts to a very large amount will become due from British merchants to American citizens. Even at the present day I have great doubts whether there are not greater sums due by the merchants of Great Britain to the citizens of the United States than there are recoverable debts due by American citizens to them. If so, what will become of the second expedient proposed to be resorted to by my colleague, that of sequestration? The balance of injury, instead of being in our favor, will be against us. If my colleague had looked over the report of the secretary of the treasury, and had attended to the amount of American property afloat, he would have seen that there is not less than one hundred millions of dollars worth of American property at the mercy of the cruisers of Britain. I believe that the naked vessels, independent of the products they carry, amount in value to more than thirty millions of dollars. It will be seen that the commerce of the United States in exports and imports amounts to 150 millions, of which it is fair to calculate that one third is constantly exposed on the ocean. Of this amount about forty millions is carried on between the U. States and the power with whom it is proposed to cut off intercourse. With this fact staring us in the face, would it be politic to expose so much property to the retaliation of the British ministry. When the gentleman spoke of the amount of British depredations, he ought to have stated the amount of those recently committed. I believe I am not very wrong in stating the whole amount of American property detained by British cruisers as not exceeding six millions of dollars. On balancing, therefore, their interests, ought the United States to resort to measures which, in the opinion of every man, will justify retaliation.
Besides, I would wish my colleague to show us how we are to be supplied with articles heretofore derived from Great Britain. All articles of iron manufacture, hardware, of cotton, and coarse woollens, we are obliged to import from that island. From her East India dominions we likewise import a great variety of useful articles; while from her West India islands we import a great portion of one article, spirits, which pays one sixth of our whole amount of duties; the amount which we get from her colonies will be found to be two and a half millions of dollars. From the same document it appears that the whole of this article imported from the British dominions is consumed in the U. States. But it is said that we may find a substitute for it. I acknowledge it. We may find
this substitute in the products of our domestic distilleries which pay no duties. Are we prepared to sacrifice so large a part of our revenue as is derived from the importation? For it will be observed that other kinds of spirits are in a great measure exported from the United States while all that we import from British settlements is consumed in this country. If the importation of British manufactures is prohibited I do not know whence we are to be furnished with the articles we stand in need of. It is true, France has some rising manufactures, and that she takes off about a fourth part of the cotton exported from the United States. But are we, by this measure, to cut off the market of the agriculturalist for this article to the extent of 90,000 bales at present annually exported to Great Britain?
But the great and material injury to the United States will be from the destruction of revenue occasioned by this measure. The present revenue may be estimated at 12,000,000 of dollars, of which 5,400,000 dollars is paid on importations from Great Britain and her dependencies. We have an annual appropriation of 8,000,000 for the payment of the principal and interest of the public debt. We have been engaged in extinguishing this debt for near twenty years, and have so far succeeded.
It is a probable calculation that if we remain at peace, and do not cut off the right hand of our revenue, the debt will be extinguished by the year 1816. To me this is an object as desirable as it can be to my colleague. I do not, therefore, wish to deprive the government of this large share of revenue derived from duties on merchandise imported from Great Britain.
As to the effects of this measure on Great Britain, I might acknowledge, if it could be permanent, that it might raise a clamor among her merchants and manufacturers, which might induce the minister of that nation to relax in the course now pursued. But I will appeal to any gentlemen conversant with the state of the country from the year 1792 to this time, to say whether there is any probability of our being able to endure a non-importation of British goods for any length of time; for more than 6 or 8 months. We have neither stock enough on hand; nor manufactures or manufacturers of our own to enable us to do so. It is true that our manufactures are advancing surely, though slowly, and I may state in corroboration of this fact, what may not generally be known, that in the city of Philadelphia, manufactures are now carried on to a greater extent than they were forty years ago in the town of Birmingham. But can we from this source, or from foreign markets supply the great demand of our citizens? No. There are some articles which we may obtain elsewhere. Let us then prohibit the importation of these from Britain. Let us carry such a system as this into effect. One which as it will do us little injury, is likely to be permanent, and will therefore have a permanent influence on Great Britain.
My colleague has alluded to the measures taken in the year 1793. But he will recollect that the orders, issued by the British government, at that period went much farther than the principle now set up. Besides in 1793 the spirit of this country was very different from that which now prevails. The revolution of France had, at that time, rekindled the enthusiasm of our own revolution; and I believe I shall not be incorrect in saying a majority of our citizens were in favor of drawing the sword in favor of France. I ask if that is the case now? If a majority of the people of America are ready to take part with the emperor Napoleon. And notwithstanding the measures then taken in 1794 we concluded a treaty which sacrificed everything we had contended for, and for which I believe my colleague voted, at least for appropriations to carry it into operation. If this was the issue of violent measures, I am not now for taking them. I am not for taking measures, which my colleague says, will strike at the vitals of Britain, but which, he says at the same time, will not be a cause of war. I am, on the contrary, in favor of such measures as we are able to carry into effect, and which may be adopted without permanent injury to ourselves.

BY THIS DAY'S MAIL.
NEW YORK, March 11.
Latest Foreign News.
In yesterday's Gazette we gave a hasty sketch of the news we received from capt. Davis, from Bordeaux. We now proceed to give the interesting details from the French Journals.
Thirtieth Bulletin of the Grand Army.
Austerlitz, 12 Frimaire, year 14.
The 6th Frimaire, the emperor, upon receiving the communication of the full powers of Messrs. de Stadion and de Giulay, offered previously an armistice, for the purpose of sparing the effusion of blood; if the enemy really had a mind to make an arrangement and come to a definitive accommodation.
But it was easy for the emperor to perceive that the enemy had other projects; and as the hope of success could not come to the enemy but from the side of the Russian army, he easily conjectured that the negotiations were no longer any thing more than a ruse de guerre to lull this vigilance.
The 7th at nine o'clock in the morning, a cloud of Cossacks, supported by the Russian cavalry, made the advanced posts of Prince Murat fall back, surrounded Vischau and took there 50 men on foot of the 6th regiment of dragoons. In the course of the day, the emperor of Russia repaired to Vischau, and the whole Russian army took position behind that town.
The emperor had sent his aid-de-camp, general Savary, to compliment the emperor of Russia as soon as he was apprized of that Prince being arrived at the army. General Savary returned at the moment when the emperor was reconnoitering the fires of the enemy's bivouac placed at Vischau. He bestowed great praise on the good reception, the graces and good personal sentiments of the emperor of Russia, and even of the Grand Duke Constantine, who showed him every kind of care and attention; but it was easy for him to perceive from the series of conversations which he had for three days with about thirty coxcombs, who, under different titles, surround the Emperor of Russia, that presumption, imprudence and inconsideracy would reign in the decisions of the military cabinet, as they had reigned in those of the political one.
An army thus conducted, could not be long without committing faults. The Emperor's plan was from that moment to wait for these faults and to watch the moment for profiting of them. He immediately gave orders for his army to retreat; he retired by night, as if he had met with a defeat, took a good position three leagues behind, caused his men to work with great assiduity in fortifying it and erecting batteries.
He proposed an interview to the emperor of Russia, who sent him his aid-de-camp, Prince Dolgorouki; this aid-de-camp might remark that every thing in the countenance of the French army denoted reserve and timidity. The placing of large guards, the fortifications making in the utmost haste, all showed the Russian officer an army half beaten.
Against the custom of the emperor, who never receives with so much circumspection flags of truce at his head quarters, he repaired himself to his advanced posts. After the first compliments the Russian officer attempted to start political questions. He assumed upon every thing with an impertinence difficult to be imagined; he was in the most absolute ignorance of the interests of Europe, and of the situation of the continent. He was, in one word, as a young trumpeter of England. He spoke to the emperor as he speaks to Russian officers, whom he has long provoked by his haughtiness and ill usage. The emperor contained his indignation, and this young man who has gained a considerable influence over the emperor Alexander, returned full of the idea that the French army was on the eve of its ruin. One may be convinced of what the emperor must have suffered, when it is known that towards the end of the conversation, the prince proposed to him to give up Belgium and to place the iron crown on the head of the most implacable enemies of France. All these different steps fulfilled their intention. To beat the French army was no longer the question, but to turn and take it: it had done so much only thro' the cowardice of the Austrians. It is asserted that several of the old Austrian generals who had made campaigns against the emperor, warned the council that it was not with
such confidence they ought to march against an army in which there were so many old soldiers and officers of the first merit. They said that they had seen the emperor reduced to a handful of men, in the most difficult circumstances, insure his victory by rapid and unforeseen operations, and destroy the most numerous armies; that here, however, no advantage had been obtained; that, on the contrary, all the skirmishes of the advanced guard of the first Russian army had been to the advantage of the French army; to these observations, these presumptuous youths opposed the bravery of 80,000 Russians, the enthusiasm inspired into them by the presence of their emperor, the picked corps of the Imperial guards of Russia, and, what they probably did not dare advance, their talents, of which they were assured, that the Austrians did not comprehend the power.
On the 10th, the emperor, from the top of his bivouac perceived with unspeakable joy, the Russian army beginning, at two cannon shot from his advanced posts, a movement in flank to turn his right. He then saw to what a pitch of presumption and ignorance of the art of war had misled this brave army. He frequently repeated: "Before to-morrow evening, that army will be in my power." Nevertheless the enemy entertained a very different idea: he came up within a pistol shot of our advanced guard, defiling by a flank march on a line of four leagues in length, extending along the French army, which appeared as if it dared not to move out of its position: it had but one fear, that the French army would escape it. Every thing was done to confirm the enemy in this idea. Prince Murat caused a small corps of cavalry to advance into the plain; but suddenly, if astonished at the immense forces of the enemy, it hastily returned. Thus every thing tended to confirm the Russian general in the ill calculated operation he had fixed on. The emperor caused the annexed proclamation to be placed in the order of the day. In the evening he wished to visit on foot and incognito all the night guards; but he had scarcely made a few paces ere he was recognized. It is impossible to describe the enthusiasm of the soldiers, on seeing him; straw lights were in an instant placed on the tops of thousands of perches, and 80,000 presented them before the emperor saluting him with acclamations; some to celebrate the fete of the anniversary of his coronation, the others saying that the army would give its nosegay to the emperor on the morrow. One of the old grenadiers said to him: "Sire, you need not expose yourself. I promise you in the name of the grenadiers of the army, that you need only fight with your eyes, and that we will bring you to-morrow the standards and artillery of the Russian army to celebrate the anniversary of your coronation."
The Emperor said in entering his bivouac, which consisted of a wretched straw hovel without a roof, which the Grenadiers had made for him: "This is the finest evening of my life; but I regret to think that I shall lose a number of these brave fellows. I feel how much that will hurt me, that they are truly my children, and in fact I sometimes reproach myself with this sentiment, which I fear will end by rendering me incapable of carrying on the war." Could the enemy have beheld this scene, he would have been alarmed. But rash and unthinking he continued his movement, and hastened forward to his ruin.
The emperor immediately caused the preparations to be made for battle. He dispatched marshal Davoust, to the convent of Raggern; he was with one of his divisions, and a division of dragoons, to make head against the enemy's left wing, in order that at a signal given, it might be quite enveloped; he gave the command of the left to marshal Lannes, of the right to Marshal Soult, of the centre to marshal Bernadotte, and of all the cavalry, which he assembled on one point, to prince Murat. The left of Marshal Lannes was supported by the Santon, a superb position which the Emperor had caused to be fortified, and on which he had caused to be placed 18 pieces of cannon. On the evening preceding the battle, he had intrusted the guard of this position to the seventeenth regiment of Light Infantry, & certainly it could not be guarded by better troops. The division of general Suchet formed the left of Marshal Lannes; and that of general Caffarelli his right, which was supported by the cavalry of prince Murat. The latter had in front of it the Hussars and light horse, under the orders of general Kellermann, and the division of dragoons Valther and Beaumont, and in reserve the divisions of cuirassiers of generals Nansouty and d'Hautpouli, with 24 pieces of light artillery.

Marshal Bernadotte, that is to say, the center, had on its left the division of general Rivaud, supported on the centre by Prince Murat, and on its left the division of general Drouet.  Marshal Soult, who commanded the right of the army, had at his left the division of general Vandamme, at the centre the division of gen. St. Hilaire, at his right the division of general Legrand.  Marshal Davoust was detached to the right of general Legrand, who guarded the passages of the ponds, and of the villages of Sokolnitz and Celnitz. He had with him the division Friam, and the dragoons of the division of general Bourcier. The division of general Gudin, was to march early in the morning from Nicholsburg, to stop any of the enemy's corps which might stretch beyond the right.  The Emperor with his faithful war companion marshal Berthier, his first aid camp colonel general Junot and all his staff, was in reserve with the ten battalions of his guards, and the ten battalions of general Oudinot, of which general Duroc commanded a part.  This reserve was drawn up in two lines in column by battalion, at the distance of opening; having in the intervals 40 pieces of cannon served by the artillerymen of the guards. It is with this reserve that the emperor had the project of rushing, wherever his presence would have been necessary. We may say that this reserve alone was worth an army.  At one o'clock in the morning the Emperor mounted on horseback to visit his posts, reconnoitre the fires of the enemy's bivouacs, and receive an account from the large guards of what they might have heard of the movements of the Russians. He learned that they had spent the night in drunkenness, and tumultuous cries, and that a corps of Russian infantry had presented themselves at the village of Sokolnitz, occupied by a regiment of the division of general Legrand, who received orders to reinforce it.  The 11th Frimaire, day at length appeared. The sun rose radiant; and this anniversary of the Emperor's coronation, on which one of the finest feats of arms of the age was going to take place, was one of the finest days of this Autumn.  This battle, which the soldiers persist in calling the engagement of the three Emperors, which others call the engagement of the anniversary, and which the emperor has called the battle of Austerlitz, will be for ever memorable in the annals of the great nation.  The emperor, surrounded by all his marshals, waited, to give his last orders, till the horizon was well lighted. At the first rays of the sun the orders were given, and each marshal rejoined his corps in full gallop.  The emperor said in passing along the front of several regiments: "Soldiers, we must finish this campaign by a clap of thunder which shall confound the pride of our enemies;" and immediately the hats on the point of the bayonets, and shouts of, Long live the Emperor! were the true signal for action. A moment after the cannonade was heard at the extremity of the right, which the enemy's advanced guard had already passed; but the unforeseen encounter of marshal Davoust stopped the enemy short, and the engagement commenced.  Marshal Soult moved off at the same instant, marched towards the heights of the village of Pratzen, with the divisions of the generals Vandamme and St. Hilaire, and entirely cut the enemy's right, all the movements of which became uncertain. Surprised by a march of flank whilst it was firing, thinking itself attacking and seeing itself attacked, it looked upon itself as half beaten.  Prince Murat moved off with his cavalry. The left, commanded by marshal Lannes, marched in echelons by regiments, as at exercise. A tremendous cannonade commenced along the whole line: two hundred pieces of cannon and nearly two hundred thousand men made a dreadful noise; it was a real combat of giants. The armies had not yet been fighting for an hour, and the whole of the enemy's left was cut off. His right found itself already arrived at Austerlitz, the head quarters of the two emperors, who were immediately forced to march the emperor of Russia's guards, to endeavor to re-establish the communication of the centre with the left. A battalion of the 4th of the line was charged by the Russian Imperial horse guards, and routed; but the emperor was not far off; perceiving this movement, he ordered marshal Bessieres to march to the support of his right with his invincibles, and shortly after the two guards were engaged.  The success could not be doubtful: in a moment the Russian guards were routed.
Colonel, artillery, standards, all were carried away. The regiment of the grand duke Constantine was crushed. He himself, owed his safety only to the swiftness of his horse.  From the heights of Austerlitz, the two emperors beheld the defeat of all the Russian guards. At the same moment the centre of the army, commanded by marshal Bernadotte, advanced; three of his regiments maintained a very fine charge of cavalry. The left, commanded by marshal Lannes, attacked several times. All the charges were victorious. The division of general Caffarelli distinguished itself.  The divisions of cuirassiers seized the enemy's batteries. At one o'clock in the afternoon, the victory was decided; it had not been a single moment doubtful. Not a man of the reserve had been necessary, nor had fought any where. The cannonade was no longer kept up any where but at our right. The enemy's corps which had been surrounded and driven from all its heights, found itself in a low ground and pushed up against a lake. The emperor marched thither with 20 pieces of cannon. This corps was driven from position to position, and a horrible spectacle ensued, such as was seen at Aboukir, 20 000 men throwing themselves into the water and drowning themselves in the lakes.  Two columns, each of four thousand Russians, laid down their arms and surrendered prisoners; the enemy's whole park is taken. The result of this engagement is 40 stands of Russian colors, among which are the standards of the Imperial guards; a considerable number of prisoners, the staff does not yet know them all. It had already notice of 20 000, 12 or 15 generals; at least 15 thousand Russians killed remained on the field of battle. Although the reports be not yet arrived, we can at the first coup d'œil estimate our loss at 8 hundred men killed and between 15 or 16 hundred wounded. This will not astonish military men, who know that it is only in a rout that men are lost, and no other corps but the battalion of the 4th was broken. Among the wounded is general St. Hilaire, who wounded at the commencement of the engagement, remained the whole day in the field of battle; he covered himself with glory. The generals of division Kellerman and Walcher, the gens. of brigade Valhubert, Thiebault, Sebastiani, Campan, and Rapp, aid de camp to the emperor. It was the latter who in charging at the head of the grenadiers of the guards, took prince Repnin, commander of the knights of the Imperial guards of Russia. As to the men who have distinguished themselves, it is the whole army which has covered itself with glory. It constantly charged shouting Long live the emperor, and the idea of celebrating so gloriously the anniversary of the coronation further animated the soldiers.  The French army, although numerous and beautiful, was inferior in number to the enemy's army, which consisted of 105 000 men, 80 000 of whom were Russians and 25 000 Austrians. Half of this army is destroyed; the rest has been put to the most complete rout and the greater part have thrown down their arms.  This day will cost tears of blood to Saint Petersburg. May it cause that cabinet to reject with indignation the gold of England; and may this young Prince whom so many virtues called to be the father of his subjects, snatch himself from the influence of those thirty coxcombs, whom England pays with art, and whose impertinences obscure his intentions, make him lose the love of his soldiers and throw him into the most erroneous operations. Nature, by enduing him with such great qualities, called on him to be the consoler of Europe. Perfidious councils, by rendering him the auxiliary of England, will place him in history in the rank of those men who by perpetuating war on the Continent, consolidated British tyranny over the ocean and caused the misfortunes of our generation. If France cannot attain peace but on the conditions which the aid de camp Dolgorouki, proposed to the emperor, and that baron Novosiltzoff was charged to bring, Russia will not obtain them, even if its army should be encamped on the heights of Montmartre.  In a more detailed relation of this battle, the staff major will make known what each corps, each officer, each general has done to illustrate the French name and give a testimony of love to their emperor.  On the 12th, at day break, Prince John of Lichtenstein, commander of the Austrian army waited on the emperor at his head quarters set up in a barn. He had a long audience of him. Nevertheless we pursue our successes. The enemy is retreating along the road from Austerlitz to Goding. In this retreat he presents his
flank, the French army is already on his rear and following him with the sword in his reins.  Never was a more horrible field of battle. From the midst of immense lakes we still hear the cries of thousands of men who cannot be relieved. It will be three days before the wounded enemies can be all sent off to Brunn. It makes one's heart bleed. May so much blood shed, so many misfortunes fall at length on the perfidious islanders who are the cause of them! may the cowardly oligarchs of London support the burthen of so many evils!  From the bivouac, 10th Frimaire.  SOLDIERS,  You see before you the Russian army come to avenge the Austrian army of Ulm. They are the same battalions you have beaten at Hohenbrunn, and whom you have constantly pushed to this place.  The positions we occupy are formidable, and, whilst they march to turn my right, they will present me their flank.  Soldiers, I shall inspect in person all your battalions; I shall keep far from the fire, it will your accustomed bravery you carry disorder and confusion into the enemy's ranks; but if victory be for a moment uncertain, you will see your emperor expose himself to the first blows; for victory cannot hesitate, in this day especially when the honor of French infantry, which imports so much to the honor of the whole nation, is at stake.  Let not your ranks be thinned under pretext of carrying off the wounded, and let each man be well persuaded with the thought, that we must vanquish these Riparians of England, who are animated with so great a hatred against our nation.  This victory will finish our campaign and we may take up our winter quarters, where we shall be joined by the new armies now forming in France, and then the peace I shall make, will be worthy of my people, of you, and of me.  (Signed)  NAPOLEON.  By order,  The Major General of the army General BERTHIER.  Austerlitz, 12th Frimaire.  SOLDIERS,  I am loaded with you: you have in the engagement of Austerlitz, justified what I expected from your intrepidity. You have decorated your eagles with an immortal glory. An army of 100,000 men commanded by the Emperors of Russia and Austria, has been in less than 4 hours cut to pieces and dispersed: those who have escaped our swords, have been drowned in the lakes.  Forty pair of colors, the standards of the Imperial Guards of Russia, 120 pieces of cannon, twenty Generals, upwards of 30 000 prisoners, are the result of this memorable day. This infantry, so much boasted, and in superior numbers, have not been able to resist your shock, & hence, forth you will have no more rivals to dread. Thus in twelvemonths, this third Coalition has been vanquished and dissolved. Peace can no longer be at a distance: but as I promised my people, before crossing the Rhine, I will only make a peace which shall give us guarantees and secure rewards to our allies.  Soldiers, when the French People placed the Imperial Crown on my head, I trusted to you to maintain it for ever in that high splendour of glory which could alone render it valuable in my eyes. But at the same moment our enemies thought of destroying and vilifying it; and this iron crown, conquered by the blood of so many Frenchmen, they wished to oblige me to place on the head of our most cruel enemies, rash and senseless projects, that on the very day of the anniversary of your emperor's coronation, you have annihilated and confounded. You have taught them that it is easier to brave and to threaten, than it is to conquer us.  Soldiers, when every thing that is necessary to insure the happiness and prosperity of our country shall be accomplished, I will conduct you back to France. There you will be the object of my most tender solicitude. My people will again behold you with joy, and it will be sufficient for you to say: I was at the battle of Austerlitz, for them to answer—thats a brave fellow.  (Signed)  NAPOLEON.  By order,  The major general of the army, General BERTHIER.  Alexandria Daily Advertiser.  SATURDAY, MARCH 14.  We are informed that on Thursday last, in the House of Representatives—Mr. Randolph advocated the rising of the committee of the Whole, on Mr. Gregg's resolution, without granting leave to sit again; that he again travelled over the field of controversy; condemning in strong terms the official conduct of the President, in particular for withholding diplomatic information from the House; for giving confidential and open messages in contradiction to each other; for excluding one or more of the heads of department from his council, &c. &c. The President and Secretary of State he likened to Don Quixote, and Sancho Panza, and treated them with great severity. We can hardly say, that we should be surprised should he move for an impeachment of general Jefferson: Articles of impeachment which he
would be willing to support; and heavier articles which the Federalists could support, might lead the Executive, to wish a snug birth in Carter's mountain. Party spirit may prevent, what justice might demand: viz—An accomplishment of the expectation expressed by Mr. Bayard, in his speech on the Anti-Justice Bill, that the time would come when Mr. Jefferson, should be called on to answer for his misdeeds, on the floor of Congress.
Letters were received lately from the Mediterranean, stating that Commodore Rogers had killed Captain Gale of the marines for remonstrating with him, on a severe punishment inflicted on a marine. I give you only report. Gale remonstrated warmly on the impropriety of the punishment. The Commodore struck him; they clashed and were parted by an officer. Gale said there was a time for all things, and when they arrived in the United States, he hoped the Commodore would give the satisfaction he had a right to demand. The Commodore drew his dirk and stabbed him thrice when he fell. Gale was unarmed. You will shortly see the account of this unfortunate affair; the above statement I believe to be true.  M.

DR. HAMILTON'S ELIXIR,
A sovereign remedy for Colds, Obsolete Coughs, Asthma, Catarrhs, Sore Throats, and approaching Consumption.
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 Henry, 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 favor 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 unfavorable 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 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,    Downfalls of spirits,  Indigestion,    Loss of appetite,  Melancholy,    Impurity of the blood,  Gout in the stomach,    Hysterical affections,  Pains in the limbs,    Inward weakness,  Relaxations,    Seminal weakness,  Involuntary emissions,    Fluorors (or whites)  Obstinate gleet,    Barrenness,  Impotency, &c. &c.  
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 complaint than all the other medicines ever before made public.
From Dr. Weatherburn, Wythe 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 labored 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.
W. 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 so severely afflicted with a violent rheumatism, very dangerously situated the consequence of a severe cold acquiring 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.

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 from obstructions or foulness in the stomach and bowels.
This medicine bears no analogy whatever of similar title, so commonly complained of as operating with violence, on the to every age and con excellency and of this being suited to every particular situation, and also its contents not a grain but was perfectly innocent, and 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, with our 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 humors and corruptions; feverish and bilious complaints, and the safest and mildest purgative that can be used on the 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 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—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—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.
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 advanced stages 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—By Hamilton's
WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES, (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 twenty 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 his 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 walked 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 vigor—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 more. 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 neighbors, 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 all appearance as a mass of worms, but upon close inspection quite resembled with very small living animals. Not one of that sort of worms which usually afflict children came from him. Since that period he grew remarkably better in health, and though lean, has got a fresh and lively complexion. Upon different occasions I have used this medicine as a purging substitute, and found it to answer exceedingly well, without bringing on belly ache, or any other disagreeable sensations, so often occasioned by purging medicines. Upon the which I judge this medicine to be, besides its main object, one of the most salutary means for restoring lost appetite, and promoting a proper state of digestion, by carrying off that bilious substance, which engenders so much indisposition both among children and adults.
I am, Sir, your most obedient servant,
JOHN MOLTHER.
