RAN AWAY from the subscriber, living in Alexandria, a negro boy, of a yellowish complexion, called JOE PAIN, about 16 years of age—had on when he went away a p. in of home-spun pantaloons, mixed with blue black and white, and generally wore them without suspenders tied round his waist with a string: likewise, had on a blue cloth roundabout jacket. I think it probable that he may have changed them. He is apt to be impudent when spoken to and speaks very quick. It is supposed he is at present lurking about the navy yard, though he is frequently in Alexandria.

BY THE LAST MAILS.
NEW-YORK, Nov. 22.
A letter from a commercial house of the greatest respectability at London, dated the 6th of October, informs, "that the Privy Council had that day determined to allow the importation of American produce from Foyal in all vessels, excepting those sailing under the French flag."
November 24.
Very Late From England.
The boat belonging to the New York Gazette came up last night from the fast sailing ship Hercules, capt. Vose, in thirty-one days from Liverpool.
To Mr. Johnston of Baltimore, we are indebted for London papers down to the 19th ult. It will be seen by the extracts which follow, that peace is concluded between France and Austria—that Mr. Percival is prime minister of England, and lord Bathurst minister of foreign affairs in the place of Mr. Canning—that parliament was further prorogued to the beginning of Dec.—that Champagny has written another letter to Mr. Armstrong, proposing that if England would cease to blockade the ports of France, she would retract her orders against England, &c. See letter.
Letters from Holland state, that the French have prohibited the exportation of wheat.—Licences had been granted in England for the importation of wheat from the continent.
The ship Horace from Boston, with John Quincy Adams on board, passed Elsinore Sept. 29. She was, notwithstanding the importance of her charge, obliged by the Danes to pay Sound Dues before she could proceed to St. Petersburg.
The market in England for our produce was good. The scarcity of vessels in England induced the government to release 800 transports.
Nothing new had occurred in England relative to America—Mr. Pinkney had no despatches to send by the Hercules.
THE DETAIL.
LONDON, October 12.
It is reported that Talleyrand had incurred Bonaparte's displeasure, who had divested him of the office of Great Chamberlain.
Viscount Castlereagh had an audience of his majesty, and delivered up his seals of office, as secretary of state for the war and colonial departments. Mr. Canning had also an audience, and delivered up his seals of office, as secretary for foreign affairs. Mr. C. has perfectly recovered from the effects of the late duel. His majesty held a privy council, at which earl Bathurst was sworn in as secretary of state for foreign affairs.
October 16.
Mr. Percival, we understand, wrote a letter to her royal highness the princess of Wales, formally announcing his appointment as first lord of the treasury. In this letter the new premier condoles with her royal highness on the loss sustained by the administration in being deprived of the splendid talents of Mr. Canning, but takes occasion to assure her, that it was not his fault, as he had offered to agree to any arrangement that Mr. Canning might suggest by which a third person might have been placed at the head of the treasury, and he trusted that her royal highness would see in this a satisfactory proof that it was not from selfish considerations that he had accepted of this situation. Her royal highness in answer to the letter, expresses her thanks for the communication, and her extreme regret at the resignation of Mr. Canning. She concludes by complimenting Mr. Percival on his courage in undertaking so arduous a task as the administration of public affairs in a moment of such unprecedented difficulty. If, indeed Mr. Percival hopes to be able to fill his place with effect, he is indeed, entitled to the praise of courage; but we do believe, that his most sanguine friends expect that any thing but some great and unforeseen accident can enable him to stand his ground one week after the meeting of the parliament.
We have not heard of any accession of talent, rank, character and fortune, since
the appointment of Mr. Croker, to the office of secretary to the admiralty, in the room of the hon. W. Pole, and even that cannot be considered a new acquirement. In fact, the Premier is more naked and deserted than he even appears to be; for the few changes that have taken place have not introduced a new friend, and even of some of his colleagues who remain in office, they are more for show than use; as earl Bathurst, earl Camden, and lord L. Gower, only retain their seals until their successors are appointed. In fact, as we stated some days ago, the earl of Liverpool, lord Eldon and Percival, are the only members of the cabinet who are determined to stay until they are driven out. Thus, Mr. Percival's ministry resembles a besieged town, with a straitened garrison, in which the commander is reduced to every possible expedient to mask his weakness and impose upon the besieger; for which purpose we find, from military history, jackboots are sometimes planted so as to look like guns, and the men are ordered to present themselves upon the walls occasionally, in new uniforms, that their numbers may thus be multiplied in the eyes of the enemy.
We have made some further extracts from the German papers to the 7th instant, received on Saturday. The treaty of peace between Sweden and Russia, was signed on the 17th, at Fredericksham, and its ratification is to be exchanged at Petersburg within four weeks. The king of Sweden has engaged by it to exclude all English vessels, of every description, from his ports, but has reserved to himself the importation of salt and colonial produce. He has also surrendered to Russia the whole Swedish territories on the east of the Gulph of Bothnia, as far as Tornea, including Tavastland, Finland proper, East Bothnia, &c. together with the Isle of Aland, the western frontier of Russia, being in future to be formed Aland Half, the strait between Sweden and the Isle of Aland, the Bothnia Gulph, and the rivers Tornea and Munio, to the confines of Norway. These conditions are not merely humiliating, on account of the great extent of territory thus severed from the crown of Sweden, but because they are destructive of the security and independence of what is left to it; as, from the moment the surrendered provinces are organised and properly reduced under the subjection of Russia, it will be in her power, at any time, to penetrate into the very heart of Sweden proper, by an invasion by sea from Aland, co-operating with the force marching by land along the coast from Tornea. The king of Sweden feels and admits that these conditions are humiliating and degrading; but he says that the exhausted state of the country did not warrant the hope of favorable terms, and that for what is left to it, the nation is indebted to the late revolutions, which placed him on the throne.
October 18.
Dispatches were received yesterday at the Foreign Office, from Flushing. We understand that the sickness of our troops is decreasing, and that the building of barracks, and other measures for the retention and protection of the island, was in full activity. Government have issued orders for replacing the buoys at the entrance of the Scheldt.
We understand that Mr. Robert Dundas Saunders arrived in town yesterday to attend the levee this day, when he will be presented with the seals of the war department.
We understand Mr. Cook, late under secretary of state to lord Castlereagh, is to succeed Mr. Huskisson, as secretary to the treasury.
A very strange rumor was in circulation yesterday, to which we are not disposed to give the least credence, that marquis Wellesley had received instructions from ministers to leave Seville, and to proceed by Madrid, Bayonne, and Bordeaux, to Paris, to terminate a negotiation already commenced for the re-establishment of peace between France and this country. We believe this rumor to have been propagated for stock-jobbing purposes.
Peace between France and Austria.
We have received Moniteurs to the 14th and Dutch papers to the 14th instant. Peace between France and Austria, was signed at Vienna on the 3d instant. This event was officially announced to the inhabitants on the 10th, by the firing of cannon, ringing of bells and other demonstrations of joy. Besides the statements in the Dutch Gazettes, government have received a confirmation of the event in dispatches from the commander of our troops at Walcheren. Several corroborative accounts had reached that island; and on the 14th, the batteries and gun boats at Zurich Zee fired a feu-de-joie on the occasion. The terms of the treaty have not transpired;
but as the peace is denominated "glorious" for France, we may presume that they are humiliating to Austria. The principal obstacle in the progress of the negotiation, we understand arose from the reluctance of the emperor Francis to give up Spalatro to the French. This, however, he has at length not only consented to do, but has greatly enhanced the merit of his compliance, by the cession of the whole of Dalmatia. Spalatro is an acquisition of great importance to Bonaparte, with a view to future maritime efforts. It is a capacious and secure harbor, contiguous to a territory which abundantly supply the chief materials for the construction of fleets. The possession of this port, and the island of Corsu, will give him the command of the Adriatic Sea.
The Paris papers state, that relays of horses for the emperor were ready at Munich on the 1st instant, and it was expected that he would leave Schoenbrunn on the 3d or 4th, on his return to Paris.
October 19.
Of the actual conclusion of a treaty of peace between France and Austria, there is no doubt. It is singular, however, that it has not been announced to us by rejoicings on the French coast; and that it is not mentioned in the Royal Courant (the official paper) of the 11th instant, which is printed at Amsterdam, though the intelligence is said to have reached that town on the preceding day. Private letters from Holland to the 14th are also silent on the subject.
There are some notes in the Paris Moniteur, on an article in a London ministerial Journal, upon lord Wellington's retreat. They contend, in the same line of argument as those which we have already noticed, that Victor was wrong in giving battle to the British army at Talavera, and that he ought to have amused it until Soult, whose army amounted to 60,000 advanced and occupied the passes of the Tagus in the British rear. The result, the Moniteur contends, would have been the total destruction of the British army. This observation, we fear is too well founded.
At the Levee yesterday, it was resolved to prorogue parliament from the 2d of November, to the beginning of December. It thus appears that it is not intended that it should meet until after Christmas. Some persons think that Mr. Percival will attempt a negotiation in the mean time.
It is rumored by this treaty with France, that the emperor Francis gives up Carniola, Carniola, Styria, Istria, and Upper & Lower Austria, together with Presburgh—that he abandons also Galicia, and consents to relinquish his title of emperor of Austria, thus reserving to himself only Hungary and Bohemia.

Letter of the minister of foreign affairs of France, M. Champagny, to Gen. Armstrong, minister of the United States to Paris—
Altengburg, August 22.
Sir,
"His majesty, understanding that you are about to dispatch a ship to the U. States, commands me to make known to you the unalterable principles which have and will regulate his conduct in the great question respecting neutrals.
"France admits the principle that the flag protects trade. The trading vessel which carries the license of its government, may be considered as a moving colony: to insult such a vessel by search, pursuit, or any act of arbitrary power, is a violation of the fundamental law of colonization, and is an attack upon the government of the same. The seas belong to every nation without exception: they are the common property and the domain of all mankind.
"Consistently with this doctrine, merchant vessels belonging to individuals may pass by inheritance to persons who never exposed themselves to be made prisoners of war. In all her conquests, France has considered sacred private property deposited in the warehouses of the vanquished state, and such have had the complete disposal of matters of trade; and at this moment convoys by land of merchandise, and especially cottons, are passing through the French army and Austria, to proceed to the destination commerce directs. If France had seized the monopoly of the seas, she would have accumulated in her territory all the products of the earth, and she would have obtained immeasurable wealth.
"Undoubtedly, if England had the dominion of land, which she has acquired on the ocean, her acquisitions would have been equally enormous. She would, as in the times of barbarism, have sold the conquered and distributed them as slaves throughout her land. The avarice of trade would have absorbed every thing, and the govern-
ment of an enlightened nation, which has brought the arts of civilization to perfection, would have given the earliest instance of the return of the savage ages. That government is fully impressed with the injustice of its naval code. But what has that government to do with justice, which only inquires for profit?
"When France shall have established her naval power, which, with the extent of her coasts and her population, will be soon accomplished, then will the emperor reduce these principles to practice, and apply his mandate to render it universal. The right, or rather the usurpation of blockading rivers and coasts by proclamation, is palpably contrary to reason and justice. A right cannot possibly spring from the will of an interested party, but must always be founded on the natural relation of things. A place is not properly blockaded unless it be besieged by land and water. It is blockaded to prevent the introduction of assistance, by which the surrender of the place might be protracted; and then we have only the right to prevent neutral ships from entering the port, when the place is thus circumstanced, and the possession of it is matter of doubt between the besiegers and besieged. On this is grounded the right to prevent neutrals from entering the place.
"The sovereignty and independence of its flag, like the sovereignty and independence of its territory, are the property of every neutral. A state may transfer itself to another state; it may destroy the archives of its independence, and pass from prince to prince; but the right of sovereignty is indivisible; no one can renounce it.
"England has placed France in a state of blockade. The emperor has in his decree of Berlin, declared the British islands in a state of blockade. The first of these regulations forbid neutral vessels to proceed to France; the second prohibited their entering English harbors.
"England has, by her Orders of Council, of the 11th of November, 1807, laid an import on neutral ships, and obliged them to enter its ports before they sailed to France. By the decree of the 17th of December of the same year, the emperor has decreed, that all such ships be nationalized, which had entered English ports, or submitted to be searched.
"In order to ward off the inconvenience with which this state of things threatened her commerce, America laid an embargo in all her harbors; and although France had done nothing more than used the right of retaliation, its wants and those of its colonies suffered much from this measure; yet did the emperor magnanimously connive at the proceeding, in order rather to endure the privation of commerce than to acknowledge the authority of the usurpers of the seas.
"The embargo was raised, and a system of non-intercourse was substituted for it. The powers on the continent, in alliance with England, having the same object in view, made a common cause with her, that they might derive the same advantages. The harbors of Holland, of the Elbe, of the Weser, of Italy, and of Spain, were to enjoy those benefits from which France was to be excluded; and the one and the other were to be opened or closed to commerce, as circumstances rendered expedient, so as France was bereft of it.
"Thus, sir, in point of principle, France recognizes the freedom of neutral commerce, and the independence of the maritime powers, which she respected up to the moment when the maritime tyranny of England, that respects nothing, and the arbitrary proceedings of its government, compelled her to adopt measures of retaliation, to which she resorted with regret. Let England revoke her blockade of France, and France will recall her declaration of blockade against England. Let England revoke her cabinet orders of the 11th Nov. 1807, and the Milan decree will expire of itself. The American commerce will then recover its complete freedom, and be assured of finding in the harbors of France favor and protection. But it belongs to the U. States to attain this happy object by their frankness. Can a nation, resolved to remain free, hesitate between certain momentary interests, and the great cause of maintaining her independence, her honor, her sovereignty, and her dignity."
(Signed) M. CHAMPAGNY.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman in the country to his friend in this town, dated November 20.
"As to the rupture between our government and Mr. Jackson; I believe Mr. Madison has been deceived. Robert Smith did know of Mr. Erskine's instructions, though he concealed it from the President; and this concealment was to further Samuel Smith's speculations—I believe. But now he disguises a falsehood under a truth. He asserts that the government knew nothing of them. He dare not say that he, R. Smith, was ignorant. Now if R. Smith knew of them, how came the secretary of state, who is that same Robert Smith, to be ignorant of them? And if the secretary of state knew of them, why did he not communicate them to the President? I think I see the ground work for an impeachment. The whole of this disagreeable business may be traced, I have no doubt, to Samuel Smith's commercial speculations."
COMMUNICATION.
The course which has been given to the affair between Mr. Jackson and Mr. Secretary Smith has certainly added nothing to the dignity or candor of our government. Whether Secretary Smith has acted properly in suspending the intercourse, remains for the executive to disclose; and is not now the question. The true enquiry is whether it is honorable to suffer editor Smith to publish in his paper an exparte, garbled statement of a most important transaction without any signature from the government or other evidence of authenticity? Surely the only just course was to submit to the nation, through Congress, a full and complete representation of all the intercourse with both Erskine and Jackson, from the time the overtures were made by Messieurs Madison, Smith and Gallatin to the British government, through Erskine up to the suspension of Jackson. Such a course would have been fair and honest—it would have challenged censure or suspicion—it would have submitted both sides of the subject, and left the good sense of the nation to decide upon its merits. What has been the course adopted? A few days only before the meeting of Congress the editor of the Intelligencer comes out (as an editorial communication) with a statement of the dismissal of Mr. Jackson very much to the dishonor of that minister! and altho' the government has not, we believe, anywhere acknowledged this publication to be authorized or official; yet the French faction in all their public prints, have not only declared it official upon this slender assertion—without a knowledge of the whole ground, have they day after day insulted, traduced, and rancorously misrepresented both Jackson and his government! Is this fair play? Is it doing as we would be done unto? Is it conforming unto the laws and and constitution of our country of which we make such boast, which declare "no man shall be condemned unheard?" So very extraordinary has been the shape and bearings of this transaction—so unlike the magnanimity and justice which are the characteristics of a free and enlightened government, that however painful the conclusion, the reflecting mind can find no motive by which the administration could be actuated in permitting these enormities, but in a grovelling policy of avoiding a candid investigation by giving a signal to the factions, and thus attempt to forestal the public sentiment.
COMMUNICATION.
It has become a matter of doubt we find with some, whether the editorial remarks in the National Intelligencer, that relate to the rupture of the negotiation with the British minister, have been published under higher than mere editorial authority. Certainly that paragraph which announced that Mr. Jackson would be no more communicated with, bears strongly the marks of a spurious offspring. We have not been heretofore in the habit of accrediting any thing from the office of state, that had not the authenticity of
an official stamp. This then would alone render the publication alluded to, questionable, even if its features were less unlike the lineaments that must necessarily have been drawn, if the pencil had been in the hands of Reubens himself.
We observe a strange substitution of an inappropriate term, by using the word propositions for conditions . They may not be exactly the same in their import, though a casual observer may not readily in this case distinguish the difference. We are disposed to believe this distinction would have taken at the office of state: this furnishes another ground of doubt.
We likewise remark the expression of a "gross insinuation" at which our philosophical doubts are upon the tiptoe. If an insinuation be correctly defined, "a hint artfully given," how will it read to say a gross hint artfully given? To us, whatever appears artful cannot be gross, since gross is either calumny, coarse or stupid, neither of which are properly the epithets to art. Besides, we think much better of the grammatical correctness of our premier than to suppose he could thus glean our nomenclature of its coarsest production to affix an official stigma on our diplomatic parlance.
Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
MONDAY, November 27.
[Taken for the Alexandria Gazette.]
At 12 o'clock this morning the house was called to order, 80 members being present.
On motion of Mr. Dawson it was resolved that a committee be appointed to join a committee from the Senate to wait on the President of the United States to inform him that the house had formed a quorum, and were ready to receive any communication he might have to offer.

MUTUAL ASSURANCE SOCIETY. ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING.
The annual general meeting of the MUTUAL ASSURANCE SOCIETY against fire on buildings of the state of Virginia, will be held, by adjournment at the Capitol in the city of Richmond, on the second Monday in Dec. next, (being the 11th day of Dec.)
SAMUEL GREENHOW, P Agent, M. A. S.
Richmond, Nov. 10th, 1809.
P. S. As much inconvenience and unnecessary expence results from the present mode of collecting the contributions of the members; which annually diverts a considerable part of those contributions from the uses for which they were intended—burdens individuals with heavy costs, and greatly delays the collections, to the injury of the credit of the society, the general meeting at their last annual session, applied to the legislature, to authorise a more certain, expeditious, and less expensive mode of collection. Their application was rejected, under an impression, that the members of the society might not approve this act of their proxies.
Having been informed that a similar proposition will be submitted to the consideration of the next general meeting, and believing some amendment in that respect necessary to the prosperity of the institution, I have thought it proper to give this public notice thereof.
S. Greenhow, P. A.

NOTICE.
THE commissioners appointed by the Virginia legislature to receive subscriptions in the town of Alexandria, for forming a turnpike road from Fauquier court house to intersect the Little River turnpike road, give notice, that they will attend at the City Hotel for that purpose, on SATURDAY, the second day of December, from ten o'clock till two, and from three till sunset. As few of the citizens of Alexandria are acquainted with the part of the country into which this road leads, and the benefits which the commerce of the town may derive from it, it may not be improper to state that it passes through the county of Prince William, a great part of the county of Fauquier, approaching near to Rappahannock, opening a communication with a part of Prince William, the greater part of Fauquier, with a prospect of no inconsiderable part of Culpepper. No road at this time leading to the town, brings greater advantages to it than the proposed one promises. Independent of those advantages mentioned as certainly resulting from it, there is the greatest probability that others will follow as soon as it can be ascertained that this will be executed. It is reasonable to expect that the inhabitants of Augusta and Rockingham on the other side of the Blue Ridge, and of Orange & Madison on this side, will exert themselves to open a road from Swiss Run Cap to Fauquier Court house. Should this be realised it will shorten the distance to Staunton at least 30 miles, and it is confidently believed should such a measure take place, it will be found that Alexandria is not above 20 miles farther from Staunton than Richmond or Fredericksburg. Through Staunton all the traders to the westward must pass in their way to the commercial towns, such a saving of distance would draw most of them this way, from which many important benefits may be derived. At this time a line of Stages is established from Abingdon to Staunton. Abingdon is upwards of 200 miles beyond Staunton. Should the roads alluded to take place, there can be no doubt of the Stages extending from Staunton to this place. The road at present contemplated reduces the distance from this town to Fauquier Court House to 41 miles, only 2 or 3 miles farther than from that place to Fredericksburg. The goodness of the contemplated road to this place, and the superior advantages of our market, reduces it to a certainty that the bulk of the trade from that part of the country will center here, if a proper road be opened to it. The prospects of great commercial benefits resulting to the town from the proposed measure, (equal if not superior to those expected from the Little River Turnpike) it is hoped will induce the citizens of Alexandria to contribute liberally towards it.

DIRECTIONS HOW TO USE YARWOOD'S Patent Washing Machine.
First fill the barrel half full of your fines cloths, then fill the bottom of the Reservoir with hot suds up to the side planks, turn t Crank backwards and forwards so as to make the cloaths fall the largest against the sides of the barrel for about twenty-five minutes, then use the same suds with a little more soap and hot water for the next finest cloaths, until the suds are unfit for use, then second your cloaths in the same way with boiling suds, after ubbing a little soap on the dirtiest parts of the cloaths; then rinse them in the machine in warm or cold water.

TO PARENTS.  The annexed cases of cures performed by  HAMILTON'S  CELEBRATED WORM DESTROYING  LOZENGES.  (Selected from a very numerous list.)
ARE presented as indubitable proof of the excellence and safety of this valuable specific, for destroying worms in the human stomach and intestines.
From Mr. Benjamin Williams, No. 30, Baltimore street, two doors above south Gay-street.
I have a son six years of age, who for four years past, has been generally in a very unhealthy state, particularly in summer; frequently afflicted with alarming convulsions, the whole of his little frame wasted fast, his breath foetid, and almost constant itching the nose was excited, with other alarming symptoms.
During the course of the above period, the advice and attendance of three of the most eminent physicians in Baltimore were successively procured. Each of these gentlemen, in his turn, declared worms to be the cause of the child's disorder, and exhausted his skill in attempting to expel them. Pink steel filings, with a variety of other means, were administered without the least effect. It was once pronounced impossible the child to live many hours.
I had heard of your Worm Destroying Lozenges, but with many others did not think it of so cheap a medicine, until a gentleman of my acquaintance (Mr. Wm. S. Moore, owner) in whose family they had been used with good effect, advised me to make use of them; I accordingly gave my son a dose agreeable to directions, which soon expelled eight large worms, some of them eight inches in length; a second dose expelled four more of similar size; a third dose being administered, no worms appeared. The child recovered and now enjoys a good state of health.
BENJAMIN WILLIAMS.
AFFIDAVIT.
Michael Duffy, residing at No. 47, Wall Street, Fell's Point, in the city of Baltimore, do hereby make oath that the following statement is just and true:
In the beginning of May last, my three children, a boy of seven, and two girls the one five, and the other three years of age were taken very ill, nearly at the same time, of a common fever, as I then supposed; but was soon convinced the disorder was caused by worms. They were frequently troubled with convulsion fits, and violent startings in their sleep, and with almost continual vomiting and purging, particularly the youngest. I made immediate application to a physician of the first reputation, and his medicines were administered with a confidence of success, which only increased our disappointment. The children grew daily worse, and I was absolutely without hopes of their recovery. The youngest soon appeared almost devoid of animation, and scarcely an inhabitant of this world. In this distressing moment I was told that Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges had performed many cures in cases equally desperate. I immediately purchased a box, and gave each of them a dose, which in a few hours produced the most desirable effects. The eldest voided a great number of very large worms, and the second thousands of small ones, many of them not a quarter of an inch—in the youngest they seemed to be consumed, and had the appearance of skin and slimy matter. I repeated the dose agreeable to the paper of directions, and they all speedily recovered a good state of health, which they still enjoy, though 5 months have nearly elapsed, since they were on the borders of the grave, and the death of the whole seemed to be inevitable.
J. SMITH.
Sworn before me, this 26th day of September, 1799.
Philadelphia, August 5 1806.  TO H. LEE.
Some time last spring I was afflicted with loss of appetite, giddiness in the head, fever, and great debility, so that I could scarcely walk. In this distressing situation I took many things, but without benefit. An acquaintance in the country sent to me to procure a box of Hamilton's Lozenges. Curiosity prompted me to read the directions, where I found my complaint exactly described by the doctor. I immediately sent for another box of the Lozenges, and took one dose, which brought away a large quantity of worms, and I felt greatly relieved. Encouraged by this, I took another dose, which was attended with the happiest effects, as it delivered me entirely, and am now in a better state of health than for a considerable time past. I was troubled with the seat—convulsions, epileptic fits, and sometimes a privation of speech—irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food and sometimes voracious—purging with slimy and foetid 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 a 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.
Prevention better than Cure.
In cases of head ache, foul stomach, and for removing superfluous bile, perhaps no remedy has been discovered superior to LEE'S HAHN'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS , which for 10 years past have been attended with the greatest success. The testimony of many respectable persons in our southern sea ports has been adduced who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy during the prevalence of malignant fevers, has preserved their health after experiencing alarming symptoms of fever.
Certificate of Wm. Devenny.
During the last nine years I have been in the habit of using Hahn's Antibilious Pills, prepared by the late Mr. Lee, whenever colds, head ache, or costiveness have rendered medicine necessary; in these cases a single dose has uniformly removed my head ache, and has generally been found sufficient to remove every symptom of a cold, if taken on its first appearance. Induced by the benefit I have received, I have for years past recommended them to many of my friends, and I have the pleasure to inform you, they have invariably succeeded in removing the above complaints.
Yours, WM. DEVENNY,  ITCH CURED.
Lee's Sovereign Ointment for the Itch, a certain cure by once using; Hamilton's Lozenges; Hamilton's Elixir, for Coughs; the celebrated Antibilious Pills; Hamilton's Essence of Mustard, for the Rheumatism; Tooth-Ache Drops; Hamilton's Grand Restorative for Debility.

It consists of Five and Twenty Hundred acres , lying on the waters of Bull and Little Rocky runs, in the counties of Fairfax and Prince William.

There are about 800 acres in wood, heavily timbered. The improvements are, a dwelling house newly fitted up, consisting of two rooms below stairs, with a store room and two convenient closets, three lodging rooms above stairs, an excellent cellar, a kitchen, corn house, meat house and stables. Likewise the overseer's house, one in each county, with other necessary houses or negroes, &c.
Between 2 and 300 acres in addition, for sale, in Prince William county, on Bull Run near its conflux with Occoquan. This land lies about 10 or 11 miles from the Occoquan mills, and has nearly one third in woods—its quality is equal to any in its immediate neighborhood.
