TREATY OF PEACE BETWEEN AUSTRIA & FRANCE.
His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, and his majesty the emperor of the French and king of Italy, equally animated with a desire to put an end to the calamities of war have resolved to proceed without delay to the conclusion of a definitive treaty of peace, and have in consequence named as plenipotentiaries to wit:
His majesty the emperor of Germany and of Austria, the prince John Lichtenstein, prince of the holy Roman empire grand cross of the military order of Maria Teresa, Chamberlain, lieutenant general of the armies of his said majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, and proprietor of a regiment of hussars: and count Ignaz de Guylai, commander of the military order of Maria Teresa, chamberlain of his said majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, lieut. gen. of his armies and proprietor of a regiment of infantry: and his majesty the emperor of France, king of Italy, Charles Maurice Talleyrand Perigord, Grand Chamberlain, Minister of Foreign Relations for his said majesty, the Emperor of France and king of Italy, Grand Cordon of the Legion of Honor, and knight who having exchanged their full powers; have agreed as follows:
ART. 1. There shall be from the date of this day peace and friendship between his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, and his majesty the emperor of the French and king of Italy, their heirs and successors, their states and subjects, respectively, forever.
2. France shall continue to possess in property and sovereignty the duchies, principalities, lordships and territories beyond the Alps, which were before the present treaty united and incorporated with the French empire, or governed by the laws and government of France.
3. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, for himself, his heirs, and successors, recognizes the dispositions made by his majesty the emperor of France and king of Italy, relative to the principalities of Lucca and Piombino.
4. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria renounces as well for himself as for his heirs and successors, that part of the states of the Republic of Venice, ceded to him by the treaties of Campo Formio and Luneville, which shall be united to the kingdom of Italy.
5. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, acknowledges his majesty the emperor of the French as king of Italy: — but it is agreed that in conformity with the declaration made by his majesty the emperor of the French at the moment he took the crown of Italy, that as soon as the parties named in that declaration shall have fulfilled the conditions therein expressed, the crowns of Italy and France shall be separated forever and cannot in any case be united on the same head. His majesty the emperor of Germany binds himself to acknowledge, on the separation of the success or his majesty the emperor of the French shall appoint to himself as king of Italy.
6. The present treaty of peace is declared to comprehend their most serene highnesses, the electors of Bavaria, Wirtemberg, and Baden, and the Batavian republic, allies of his majesty the emperor of the French, in the present war.
7. The electors of Bavaria and Wirtemberg having taken the title of king without ceasing nevertheless to belong to the Germanic confederation, his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria as such acknowledges them in that character.
8. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, as well for himself, his heirs and successors, as for the princes of his house, their heirs and successors respectively, renounces the principalities, lordships, domains, & territories hereafter specified.
Cedes and abandons to his majesty the king of Bavaria the margraviate of Burgaw and its dependencies, the principality of Eichstadt, the part of the territory of Passau belonging to the elector of Salzburg and situated between Bohemia, Austria, the Danube and the Inn; the country of Tyrol, comprehending therein the principalities of Brizen and Botzen, the seven lordships of the Voralberg, with their detached dependencies; the country of Ho-
henems, the country of Konigsegg, Rot-tensals, the lordships of Tetuany and Ar-gen, and the town and territory of Binda-u.
To his majesty the king of Wirtemberg, the five cities of the Danube, to wit, Ehingen, Munderkengen, Rudlingen, Mengen, and Sulgau, with their dependencies, the city of Constance excepted, that part of the Brisgaw, which extends in the possession of Wirtemberg, and situated to the east of a line, drawn from Schlegelburg to Molbach, and the towns and territories of Willengen and Breitingen, to his most serene highness the elector of Baden, the Brisgaw (with the exception of the branch and separated portions above described) the Ortenaw and their dependencies, the city of Constance, and the commanding of Meinam.
The principalities, lordships, domains and territories above mentioned shall be possessed respectively by their majesties the kings of Bavaria and Wirtemberg, and by his most serene highness the elector of Baden, as well in paramount as in full property and sovereignty, in the same manner, by the same titles, and with the same rights and prerogatives, with which they were possessed by his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, or the princes of his house, and not otherwise.
9. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, acknowledges the debts contracted by the house of Austria, for the benefit of private persons and public establishments of the country, making at present an integrant part in the French empire; and it is agreed that his said majesty shall remain free from all obligation, with respect to any debts whatsoever which the house of Austria may have contracted, on the ground of the possession and securities on the soil of the countries which it renounces by the present treaty.
10. The country of Salzburg, ad of Berchtesgaden, belonging to his royal electoral highness prince Ferdinand, shall be incorporated with the empire of Austria: And his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, shall possess those in full property and sovereignty, but by the title of a duchy only.

The electoral title of his royal highness shall be transferred to this principality, which his royal highness shall possess in full property and sovereignty, in the same manner and on the same conditions that he possessed the electorate of Salzburg.
And with respect to debts it is agreed that the new possessor shall stand charged with those resulting from loans finally agreed to by the states of the country, or the expenses incurred for the effective administration of the said country.
12. The dignity of grand master of the Teutonic order, in rights, domains, and revenues, which before the present war were dependencies of Megenheim the chief place of the order; the other rights, domains and revenues which shall be found to belong to the grand mastership at the time of the exchange of the ratifications of the present treaty; as well as the domains and revenues now in possession of which the said order shall be at the same epoch, shall become hereditary in the person and descendants in the direct male line, according to the order of primogeniture, in which ever the princes of the imperial house, shall be appointed by his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria. His majesty the emperor Napoleon promises his good offices to obtain, as soon as possible, for his royal highness the archduke Ferdinand, a full and entire indemnity in Germany.
13. His majesty the elector of Bavaria shall occupy the city of Augsburg and its territory and unite them to his states, in full property and sovereignty.

14. Their majesties the kings of Bavaria and Wirtemberg, and his most serene highness the elector of Baden, shall enjoy over the territories ceded, as well as over their ancient estates, the plenitude of sovereignty, and all the rights resulting from it, which have been guaranteed to them by his majesty the emperor of the French, king of Italy in the same manner as his majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, and
his majesty the king of Prussia, over their German states. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria both as chief of the empire, and as co-estates engages himself not to oppose any obstacle to the execution of the acts which they have made, or will make in consequence.
15. His majesty the emperor of Germany and Austria, as well for himself, his heirs, and successors, as for the Princes of his house, their heirs and successors, renounces all the rights as well of sovereignty, as of paramount right to all pretension whatsoever, actual or eventual, on all the states without exception, of their Majesties the kings of Bavaria and Wirtemberg, and of his most serene highness the Elector of Baden, and generally on all the states, domains, and territories, comprised in the circles of Bavaria, Franconia, and Suabia, as well as to every title, taken from the said domains; and reciprocally, all pretensions, actual or eventual, of the said states to the charge of the house of Austria, or its princes, are and shall be, for ever extinguished; nevertheless, the renunciations contained in the present article do not concern the properties, which are by the 11th article, or which shall be, by virtue of the 12 article, above, conceded to their Royal Highnesses the Archdukes named in the said articles.

22. Within five days of the exchange of the ratification of the present treaty, the town of Presburg, and its environs, to the extent of six leagues, shall be evacuated. Ten days after the said exchange the French & the troops of the allies of France, shall evacuate Moravia, Bohemia, the Viennese Wald, the Viertel Unter Manhartsberg, Hungary, and the whole of Syria. In the 10 following days they shall evacuate the Viertel Viennese Wald, and the Viertel Ober Manhartsberg; and finally, in the space of two months from the exchange of ratifications, the French troops, and the troops of the allies of France, shall evacuate the whole of the hereditary states of his majesty the emperor of Germany & Austria, with the exception of the place of Brannau, which shall remain for one month at the disposal of his majesty the emperor of the French, king of Italy, as a place of depot for the sick and for the artillery.
No requisition of whatever nature shall be made of the inhabitants during that month. But it is agreed that at the expiration of the said month, no corps whatever of Austrian troops can be stationed or introduced within a circuit of six leagues around the said place of Brannau. It is in like manner agreed that each of the places which are to be successively evacuated by the French troops within the times above mentioned, shall not be taken possession of by the Austrian troops till eight and forty hours after the evacuation. It is also agreed, that the magazines left by the French army in the places which they shall successively evacuate, shall remain at its disposal; and that the high contracting parties shall make an arrangement relative to all contributions of war whatsoever imposed on the different hereditary states occupied by the French army, an arrangement in virtue of which, the raising of the said contributions shall entirely cease from the day of the exchange of the ratifications. The French army shall draw its provisions and its subsistence from its own magazines, established on the routes by which it is to proceed.
23. Immediately after the exchange of the ratification of the present treaty, commissioners shall be named on both sides to give up and to receive in the name of their
respective sovereigns, all parts of the Venetian territory, not occupied by the troops of his majesty the emperor of the French and king of Italy. The city of Venice, the Languns, and the possession of Terra Firma, shall be given up in the space of fifteen days: Venetian Istria, and Dalmatia, the mouths of the Cattaro, the Venetian Isles in the Adriatic, and all the places and forts which they contain, in the space of six weeks from the exchange of the ratifications. The respective commissaries will take care that the separation of the artillery belonging to the republic of Venice from the Austrian artillery be exactly made, the former being to remain entirely in the kingdom of Italy. They will determine by a mutual agreement the kind and nature of the objects, which being the property of the emperor of Germany and Austria are consequently to remain at his disposal. They will agree either on the sale to the kingdom of Italy, of the objects above mentioned, or their exchange for an equivalent quantity of artillery, or other objects of the same, or a different nature, which shall have been left by the French armies in the hereditary states.
Every facility and every assistance shall be given to the Austrian troops, and to the civil and military administrations, to return into the Austrian states by the most convenient and sure ways, as well as to the conveyance of the imperial artillery, the naval and military magazines, and other objects which are not comprehended in the stipulations of sale or exchange which may be made.
24. The ratifications of the present treaty shall be exchanged within the space of eight days or sooner if possible.

CONGRESS
OF THE UNITED STATES.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Friday, March 21.
Mr. Mumford, from the committee to whom was referred a resolution prohibiting the importation of certain articles from Great Britain, reported a bill to prohibit the importation of certain goods, wares and merchandise, which was referred to a committee of the whole house on Monday.
Mr. Thomas said he wished to submit a motion to amend the rules of the house, and he would, in a few words, state the reasons which influenced him.
The bill, said Mr. T. for a partial non-interposition of the products and manufactures of Great Britain, is now before us and we soon shall be again engaged on the subject of our difference with that nation. A subject which has been and probably will be again embraced as a theme on which much of the precious time of this house has been spent and I think its dignity prostrated; in talking about and animating all the little, local, party divisions, which have been artfully attempted to be raised in different sections of this union by designing individuals and newspaper writers; but which as to principle, do not in reality exist.
In attempting by low epithets and personal allusions, to criminate the present chief magistrate of this country, who not only possesses the entire confidence, and is the pride and boast of almost unanimous America; but who has been eulogized throughout Europe, and the whole civilized world, for the salutary measures which he has recommended and adopted, to lessen his own patronage, to lighten the burthens of the people, to preserve peace, and to render their independence, freedom and happiness permanent and secure, and whose political life will be transmitted to posterity, in the fairest pages of history, as a model of public virtue and true patriotism. In canvassing for the election of another president, and in attempting to excite jealousies, and disturb the harmony and unanimity of the nation, at this momentous crisis: besides the low personal abuse which, while that subject was before under consideration, has been levelled at a great number of the most respectable members

of this house; all of which I deem a gross violation of its dignity and the honor of the nation, and which I will set my face against, while I am possessed with a seat on this floor.
Our rules on this subject are either mis- construed or they are defective: I shall therefore propose an alteration.
But by this said Mr. Thomas I wish not to be understood, as having any reference to the low invectives, directed at myself the other day, by a member, whom, I ex- ercising a constitutional right, called to order when in my opinion, he was outrag- ing decency and decorum; for I viewed that only as a stroke, in the desperate struggle of one, who from disappointment and chagrin was politically strangled by his own hands, and just expiring. I feel as above being affected by any thing of this kind, individually, but I feel for the dignity of this house, and for the reputa- tion of the American government—and in order to prevent this kind of transgres- sion in future, by bringing questions of or- der fairly before the chair and the house, I will submit the following resolution:
Resolved , That when a member is called to order by another he shall immediately sit down, and the member calling the other to order, shall then be allowed to state the points, which he objects to as be- ing out of order, so that the decision of the chair & the house may be taken there-
on. Ordered to lie on the table.
Mr. Clark. Before I sit down I will lay a resolution on the table, which I have for some time past kept in my drawer. I will do this with a view of affording this house an opportunity of exercising one of its constitutional powers.—I consider the house of representatives, as the immediate guardians of the rights of those whom they represent.—They are more dispersed throughout the United States, than any other class of public men, and from them their return home the people may rati- onally expect a more complete informa- tion of what is passing here than from any other persons. In so extensive a coun- try there is a better chance of their affairs being known through this organ than thro' literate presses. With regard to the public character, who is the object of this resolution, I have long had suspicions, and have since found from what I consider good authority, these suspicions confirmed —I have good reason to believe that a man high in office, no other man than the post master general of the United States, has been combining and machinating against the representatives of the people, and that he has used his efforts to seduce a press, [Mr. Clark is understood here to have alluded to the Aurora] to aid him in his claim depending before this house. I know of one authority which could relieve this house from the necessity of discharging what may be considered an unpleasant du- ty, by getting rid of what may be called a public nuisance. I mean the president of the United States. It is because I believe that great and good man, whose greatest fault if he has fault, consists in his good- ness, has not been fully informed on this subject, that this course is rendered neces- sary. I have such confidence in the presi- dent, that I believe, if he had received this information, he would not have suffered this officer to remain a moment in place. But good, just, and honest himself he li- stens to ear wigs, who surround him, who tell this officer and whisper sweet things in his favor. I think it a duty I owe to the government to take this step. As to the representative part I have little apprehen- sion, as I know that in case of misconduct the election screw, that admirable feature of the system, will apply an abundant remedy. But when an officer in the executive de- partment is found to be undeserving of confidence it is right that the people should know it; and with the convictions I enter- tain, I should not do my duty if I did not make this motion, before the end of my political life, which may in a few days ex- pire: I therefore submit the following re- solution.
Resolved , That a committee be ap- pointed to enquire into the conduct of Gi- deon Granger, post master general of the United States and report their opinion whether the said Gideon Granger hath so acted in his capacity of post master gene- ral as to require the interposition of the constitutional power of this house.
The house having agreed to consider this resolution, Mr. Dana, suggested the expediency of letting it lie for a day, as an important prin- ciple was involved in its adoption. Mr. Clark replied that though he felt the strongest disposition to be obliging, he could not agree to the postponement. The session was pressing towards a close, and there was no time to be lost. The enquiry
ought to be made that the officer implicated might if innocent, be acquitted; and if guilty be dismissed from office.
Mr. Jackson hoped the resolution would not be permitted to lie unacted on. It was certainly a duty due by gentlemen on this floor, as well to their constituents as to the gentleman implicated, to call for an in- vestigation. This duty my colleague has now undertaken; & I rejoice at it, for when this same officer was accused at a former session, and asked for an enquiry into his conduct, we were told he should not be indulged in that high honor. I trust his conduct will now be enquired into; that if guilty he will be removed from office, or if innocent, he may be honorably acquit- ted.
Mr. Lyon was likewise in favor of an immediate agreement to the resolution, and remarked that it was exactly the thing solicited the last session by the post master general.
Mr. Smilie said it was proper that an enquiry should be made whenever there were any allegations of criminality; with- out such allegations he was not ready to vote for this enquiry; should they be made he should be ready to vote for it.
Mr. Clark said he had stated, what he thought would have been distinctly heard throughout the house, that he had been well informed, and which he believed could be established by unexceptionable testimony, that the post master general had conspired against the representatives of the people by attempting to seduce a press in favor of a claim he had before the house.
Mr. Smilie observed he had not before heard this allegation stated—Having heard it he was ready to vote in favor of the enquiry.
Mr. Sloan said the resolution ought to unite all descriptions of members in its fa- vor; those friendly to its object, those inimical to it, and if there were any, those neutral to it; especially after the request made by the post master general at the last session to the same effect.
The resolution was then agreed to with- out a division, and a committee of enquiry appointed, consisting of Messrs. Clark, Roger Nelson, Bidwell, J. Clay, Pitkin, D. R. Williams and Clinton.
NEW-YORK, March 23. The ship John Morgan, Captain Bunker, whose arrival within the Hook we noticed yesterday, came up last evening. She left Liverpool on the 13th of February, and the rock on the 17th.— Her latest London papers are the 10th. From a file to this date, commencing with the 6th, we have selected the following, which comprise the most valuable articles of intelligence they con- tain.
LONDON, February 6. Our Falmouth letters received this morning, restate circumstances similar to those we communicated yesterday respect- ing sir R. Strachan's squadron being in pursuit of a French one, and the men of war of the outward bound West-India fleet being in preparation to assist sir Richard. We ought, however, to remark that at the admiralty it is thought possible that the supposed enemy's squadron may turn to be that under admiral Cornwallis, who was off Ushant on the 31st ult. It will be a day or two, or perhaps longer, before the fact can be ascertained, or the result can be known.
The national guards, who were called out as soon as the French army crossed the Rhine, have been disembodied through all France.
The court of Naples endeavors to ward off the blow by which its very existence is menaced. Cardinal Ruffo had gone to Rome for the purpose of negotiating with cardinal Fesch, the suspension of the march of the French army. Couriers were dis- patched to Paris and Naples with the result of the conference; and it is impossible but that St. Cyr may halt, until he shall have received imperative instructions from the French emperor. After the vindictive spirit displayed in the thirty-seventh Bulle- tin, it does not seem very likely that Na- poleon will concede that oblivion of the queen of Naples' conduct to the interces- sion of cardinal Fesch, which he refused to the entreaty of the archduke Charles or the emperor of Germany.
Yesterday, soon after twelve o'clock, earls Westmorland and Camden, viscount Castlereagh, lords Mulgrave and Hawkes- bury, had an audience of his majesty, at the queen's palace, and resigned their of- fices. At two earl Moira entered, follow- ed by lord Ellenborough, lord Grenville, earl Temple, lord Auckland, earl Spencer, viscount Sidmouth, Mr. Fox, Mr. Grey, lord E. Petty, Mr. Windham, lord Minho,
Mr. Vansittart, and the earl of Bucking- hamshire.
Lord Ellenborough had an audience of his majesty, and resigned the seals of chan- cellor of the exchequer, which he held pro tempore since the death of Mr. Pitt.
The following kissed hands on their re- spective appointments, viz.
Earl Spencer, } Secretaries of state. Mr. Windham, } Mr. Grey, First lord of the admiralty. Lord Henry Petty, Chancellor of the exchequer.
Lord Sidmouth, Privy Seal. The following will kiss hands to-morrow, as it was not convenient for his majesty to have a court this day, viz.
Mr. Erskine, Lord chancellor. Lord Grenville, First lord of the trea- sury.
Mr. Fox, Secretary for the foreign de- partment. Earl Moira, Master general of the ord- nance.
Earl Fitzwilliam, at present in the coun- try, will kiss hands as president of the council, some day next week.
A Privy Council was afterwards held, when the following were sworn in members and took their places at the board accord- ly. They likewise had the honor of kissing hands upon the occasion, viz. Mr. Fox, Earl Moira, Lord Temple, Mr. Grey, Lord Henry Petty.
His majesty will hold a privy council to- morrow at the Queens palace, when it is expected the remainder of the new minis- ters will be appointed.
Earl Spencer went immediately to the secretary of state's office, in the Treasury, and transacted business during the after- noon.
Mr. Grey likewise went to the admir- alty, and took his seat at the board.
It seems that Mr. Sheridan was left at complete liberty to make his own choice in the new ministerial arrangements; when an illustrious personage said to Mr. Fox— "What is the situation proposed for Mr. Sheridan?" The answer was—"Sir, we mean to propose no situation for Mr. She- ridan; but whatever situation Mr. She- ridan proposes for himself will be instantly assented to."
February 7. Intelligence received from off Boulogne states, that the most vigorous measures are adopting along the French coast, particu- larly at Boulogne, to place the latter in a formidable state of defence. Active pre- parations have begun to be made in the Boulogne flotilla.
A gentleman lately returned from Flush- ing, informs us, that there are six 74 gun ships nearly ready to launch at Antwerp; those ships, when ready for sea, will, in all probability, go to the Texel.
Just as this paper was going to Press, we were informed, that the remainder of the Brest fleet has put to sea. This intel- ligence was brought to Falmouth by a ship which received the account from a vessel she spoke on the 4th in the morning.
Part of the Channel fleet has been forced to get into Falmouth.
February 8. Mr. Erskine has been called up to the house of peers by the title of baron Er- skine, of Restormel, in the county of Corn- wall.
Alexandria Daily Advertiser.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26.
MR. SNOWDEN, I DESIRE, through the medium of your ad- ful paper, to congratulate the inhabitants of Alexandria, on the decorum and order, suddenly produced by the late act of the Corporation, as it relates to free negroes, and mulattoes. To those accustomed to the observance of the Sab- bath, it cannot but afford a pleasing hope, that the effect, so evidently produced amongst us, by this new order of police, so long wished for, be- gins at length to dawn upon us, after our long sufferance, under a relaxation, productive of uni- versal uproar and disorder, to the great annoy- ance of the citizens peace, and utterly subversive of the respectability, and best interests of Alex- andria.
No more riotous assemblies, nor horrid oaths and imprecations, (we indulge the hope) will any longer be permitted to prophan that holy day, to violate as heretofore, the peace and good or- der of the neighborhood.
If the bare apprehension of the laws of Virgi- nia (by which we are governed) can produce so desirable an event,—what may we not expect from the actual operation?—The answer is plain— viz. Every thing that can give us comfort in our domestic concerns as individuals, our respec- tability, and our interests.
"Our accounts from Madrid, (says the London pa- per of the 28th) state positively that Bonaparte has or- dered the Spaniards to march an army into Portugal, or that, if they do not, he will send a French army thro' Spain for that purpose."
Extract of a letter from Lisbon, dated January 20, to a gentleman in Boston.
"There are now here, unfold and afloat, 30,000 bar- rels of flour. Ninety three large vessels, with grain, arrived here last month—between thirty and forty the month before; and fifteen this month; supplying this market with as much foreign bread stuff as is usually con- sumed in six months. About twenty cargoes have been sold at auction, and commanded only 115 to 140 per bushel. A continental peace will not help the market. Flour is now dull, at 9 dollars 50 cents per barrel."
Letters from the Lisbon mail (says the Sun of the 27th) state, that the prince regent of Portugal, who had for some time labored under a heavy depression of spirits, has been so severely attacked by mental derangement, as to be obliged to retire from all public business. This unexpected event has been the cause of considerable em- barrassment to the government.
Extract of a letter from Liverpool, dated the 8th of February, received by the Packet, arrived at Boston in 15 days from Liverpool.
"The memorial of the merchants of New-York on the encroachments lately made by this country on neu- tral commerce, has appeared in some of our public pa- pers. In connection with this interesting subject, we cannot help considering the late change in administra- on as particularly important; and shall be much disap- pointed if the remonstrance which has been made, is not treated in a very different manner by such men as com- pose the present ministry, than what it would have been by the abettors of the former system."

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 forseness 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 considerable cough. 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 his 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 stomach and back,  Consumptions, Indigestion,  Lowness of spirits, Melancholy,  Loss of appetite, Gout in the stomach,  Impurity of the blood, Pains in the limbs,  Hysterical affections, Relaxations,  Inward weakness, Involuntary emissions,  Seminal weakness, Obsolete gleet,  Fluctus (or whites) impotency, &c. &c.  Barrenness, 
In cases of extremity, where the long prevalence and obstinacy of disease has brought on a general impoverishment of the system, excessive debility of the whole frame, and a wasting of the flesh, which no nourishment or cordial could repair, a perseverance in the use of this medicine has performed the most astonishing cures.
HAMILTON'S ESSENCE AND EXTRACT OF MUSTARD,
A safe and effectual remedy for gout, rheumatism, palsy, sprains, bruises, pains in the face and neck, &c. And has performed more cures in the above 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, below 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 after lying in, as to be confined to her bed for several weeks, and was at length reduced to the melancholy apprehension of remaining a cripple for life, notwithstanding the most respectable medical advice was followed, and every probable remedy attempted: when seeing several cases of cures performed by Hamilton's Essence and Extract of Mustard, they were procured from Mr. Birch, No. 19, 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 squisms in the stomach and bowels.
This medicine bears no analogy whatever of similar title, so commonly complained of as operating with violence, on the contrary a particular excellence of this it contains nothing but what is 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, without pain or griping, cleanse the stomach and bowels of whatever is foul or offensive, and thereby prevent the production of worms and many fatal disorders. They are particularly efficacious in carrying off all gross humors and corruptions; feverish and bilious complaints, and the fastest 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 Tæres or large round worm, the Ascarides, or small maw worm, the Cucurbitina, or short flat, white worm, and lastly, the Tænia 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 appetite, sometimes loathing food, and sometimes voracious—Purgings, with slimy and fetid stools—Vomiting—Large and hard belly—Pains and sickens 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 wasted rapidly, and with that his strength, so that he was unable to attend to any business—when he heard of some excellent cures performed by Hamilton's worm lozenges, he took a large dose, which brought away about FOUR YARDS of the worm (now in the possession of Lee, & Co.) but a renewal of his pains soon convinced him that this monstrous reptile had recovered its first 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 a mere mucus but upon close inspection quite repletes 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 whole 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.
