A double spring house, with a smoke-house over the same, within fifty yards of the kitchen—The spring in the driest season never known to lower in the least, and from which the meadow is watered; a garden containing about one acre, stocked with the most delicious fruits, such as peaches, plums, cherries, pears, raspberries, &c. several asparagus beds in great perfection. Also, a young bearing apple tree orchard, containing several hundred trees; the fruit selected from different parts of the United States, a large convenient barn with a threshing floor, with commodious stabling for horses and cows, carriage and house, grain room, &c.

THE HAND-BILLS.
DUANE pretends to disown the Hand-Bills, which have been circulating among his party, within a few days past, and which for the sake of exposing them to the derision of the public, were published in the Philadelphia Gazette. He says it is a pitiful Federal trick, and that neither Israel, nor Ker had any thing to do with the writing of them.
It is worthy of remark that the strictures in the Aurora upon this subject, are headed by no less than four different notices to the united Republicans, to convene in several places, for as many different purposes. There is the committee of Concentration—the committee on Important Business—the committee of Selection, and the committee for promoting the Republican Interest.
It is very well known that the whole squad has of late been completely disorganized; they are striving hard to bring about a coalition between the rival candidates for the Sheriff's Office and Member of Congress for the county. For the latter office, it is understood there are four candidates, three Jacobins and one Federalist. No wonder that the Jacobins have need of frequent meetings, when the day of election approaches so fast, and they have not yet agreed upon their candidates.
Duane undertakes to act the mediator on these occasions—for says he, gentlemen, there is no cause of difference between you; your pretensions to office are perfectly reconcileable with each other—you can't both get in, 'tis true, at once, and therefore it is never worth while for you both to run, and "Mr. James Ker, who is well known to be a man of integrity," has authorized me to say that he despairs of getting in, and therefore he won't try.
[The following we copy from the "Aurora" of Saturday the 13th of September: it will be found in the first column of the second page, the four last lines.]
EXTRACT.
"It is proper, I think, that the subject should be well discussed, that we may find out whether CHRIST is a MONARCHIST, a REPUBLICAN, a JACOBIN,—or WHAT!!"
[It would be insulting the reader to make any comment on the above. It comes from the supporters of Mr. JEFFERSON, who think it of no consequence whether there are Twenty God's or NO GOD—worthy supporters of a worthy candidate.]
We understand, from the best authority, that there is a letter in town from a gentleman in North-Carolina, which states as a fact, "that in consequence of the recent insurrection of the blacks in Virginia and South-Carolina, great numbers of families are removing from his neighbourhood, under the most serious alarm and apprehension of similar horrors being perpetrated among them by the Negroes, to those which have already taken place in the neighbouring states."
When we reflect upon the distressing occurrences, referred to in the preceding paragraph, and contemplate the consequences to which these Negro insurrections may, and most probably will lead; being no less than the utter extirpation of the white inhabitants, either by the cutting of the throats of every man, woman and child, or by compelling such as may escape death, to flight; we cannot look at the picture without experiencing emotions of horror and dismay. At the same time that we shrink with terror from the prospect of carnage and desolation which seems to stare our southern brethren in the face, it is some aggravation to our feelings that so little regard has been paid, during a period of so many years, to the warning voice of the northern states, which in language that could not be misunderstood, has without ceasing admonished the white inhabitants of the southern states, that their conduct would eventually draw down destruction upon their own heads—that their eagerness and anxiety to propagate the doctrines of liberty and equality which their practice and principles so flagrantly belied, was whetting the knife that would surely and infallibly sooner or later, cut their own throats.
It seems to be pretty well ascertained, that the insurrection at Richmond was excited by inflammatory hand-bills, issuing from the pen of Callender, the noted convict now in Jail there, and that two Frenchmen have acted first rate parts in the plot; and yet Duane in a late paper tries hard to fix the blame of it upon the Federal Government, because a renewal of commercial intercourse has been established with the island of St. Domingo! Who does not know that until this intercourse was renewed, the Jacobins were everlastingly casting reproach against the government for excluding our commerce from that island? The convention with the "Black Emperor of St. Domingo" as Duane calls Toussaint, was therefore brought about by the clamours and conspiracies of the French party here; the same that is now raising the negro insurrections in the southern states. Among other happy effects anticipated by Duane from the Negro insurrections, is this; that the Eastern Delegation to Congress will be bro't "openly to avow their desire to retard the white population of the southern states, or consent to measures calculated to promote white population." By retarding the white population of the southern states, Duane
means that Irish, French, Scotch and Dutchmen, and all foreigners, except Africans, are excluded, by law from the southern states. By what law? Why; by the law of the southern states themselves. What control then has the Eastern delegation over the white population of the South? As to consenting to measures calculated to promote white population, I dare say that the Eastern delegation have no sort of objection; but the ways and means ought surely to be pointed out by the southern delegation. The most that could be expected from the Eastern members would be to abide by and stand to any contract that might be entered into on this subject.
Here he is again—That unwearied, ever-lasting and infinitely monotonous scribbler; Tench Coxe; Who does not recognize in every line of five close printed Aurora columns, the hand-writing of that fawning, pious, sycophantic supple Chelsheldian; the guide of the British Army. The address is signed by five; but the same hand, which led the British General into the city of Philadelphia, was employed to draft an invocation to Republicanism. Mark the kindly, brotherly love and tenderness, which pervades the whole piece. "Our federal brethren the Lancaster Committee." This single example is enough to lay bare the cloven foot. Brethren in what? In treachery? In vicar of Brayism? In ferpentine subtlety? In the venom of the toad, without his power to charm; In the faithless, insidious, and thievish disposition of the Cat, without the symmetry of her shape and figure? Do Democrats, and Federalists fraternize in any of these particulars? Heaven forefend! The spirit that can descend to ignominy like this, must be grovelling indeed. It must be worthy to inhabit that mansion where treachery reigns supreme, the bosom of—
We know the Author; Now for the exhibit. This cool unimpassioned, conciliatory and moderate address from the Lancaster Committee to the Republicans of Pennsylvania; written with all the wordy ability, and cunning craftiness of Tench Coxe, as it comes from the grand Council fire of the Jacobins, will be looked upon as the clue, and the index to political mysteries by all the interior and subordinate factiouns. It multiplies the catalogue of crimes and offences against the Federal Government, with the same facility that a prismatic glass produces variety of colors. Ah, but say the Democrats; answer it if you can; refute the facts disclosed in it; well what will you do then, say the federalists. What will we do? Why we'll not believe a word you say about it.
Mister Tench Coxe publishes all the private confidential letters he receives, and if you hold a conversation of half an hour with him, (and I defy any man to do less, if he listen to him at all) you will be sure to read the same thing in the Aurora of the following day. Mr. Tench Coxe, can write as well as talk, and almost with the same facility.
For the GAZETTE of the UNITED STATES.
MR. WAYNE.
AT the present momentous epoch, it is the duty of every good man, whether Jew or Christian, to ask himself the grand question stated in your paper: "Shall I continue in ALLEGIANCE TO GOD and a RELIGIOUS PRESIDENT; or impiously declare for JEFFERSON and NO GOD."
I am a Republican, and heretofore have voted with that party; and intended after considering the patriotism, former services, and abilities of THOMAS JEFFERSON to have given him my vote and interest, if an election took place in this State: The many reports respecting his religious principles, I considered as circulated for party purposes. 'Till I read the REV. MR. ABERCROMBIE's address (occasioned by the abuse he received for doing his duty, as a Christian Minister) and the address entitled, "Serious Considerations," &c. said to be written by a respectable Clergyman of New York; both these good men have my sincere thanks for preventing me from giving my vote or interest to favor the election, of a man of no religion; who thinks it immaterial whether there are TWENTY GODS, or ONE GOD, or NO GOD. A man of such sentiments, and the party who supports him; all the religious and orderly members of the community ought to withdraw their confidence from; for those who boast of republicanism, without religion, without conscience, will like Tallyrand yield to interest.
The people of the United States are, in general, christians: JESUS CHRIST is the founder that JESUS, who was born in a STABLE, is their boast; this admits of no doubt, and that he passed many years in obscurity before he preached and confirmed his doctrines with prodigies; giving health to the diseased, light to the blind, and life to the dead; his holy religion which spread beyond the bounds of the Roman Empire, and which brought life and immortality to light; is now in America insulted by the very mention of an infidel name as a candidate for the high office of President of the United States. In former times Philosophers like the correspondent of Black Bannaker the almanac maker opposed arguments to our religion; Emperors like the despot of France opposed torments, and libertines the omnipotent attractions of sensuality: yet it broke through the violence of opposition, it multiplied by disputes and encircled by persecution.
It was with great pleasure I heard that two clergymen not of the Episcopal Church spoke on Sunday the 14th instant, and the venerable Doctor Ewing, Provost of the University of Pennsylvania, on Sunday the 21st to their Congregations in this city; of the
danger of promoting to public office, avowed infidels; and the application was immediate made. It is the will of every good man that the Clergy who have not yet come forward, may in time be awakened to a sense of duty and act their part like men, and like Christian Ministers, and no longer sleep when the enemy is at hand.
I am informed that some of the Ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, are afraid of losing their popularity, and of offending the vile part of their Congregations, if they come forward at this time; others think it improper to introduce Politics in the Pulpit, who could bellow loudly at the commencement of, and during the Revolutionary War; If it was then proper, when our Independence was in danger, is it not now proper, when our Religion is so much threatened? I therefore call upon every Christian Minister to come forward immediately; a delay of a few weeks may be dangerous, and silence at this juncture Criminal: for JEFFERSON is an INFIDEL, and no person as yet had the boldness to declare to the contrary.
NO INFIDEL.

Danbury, August 15 1800.
TO THE PUBLIC
Since writing my observations contained in a letter to the editor of the Aurora, dated the 16, and republished in my paper No 4—and the address to the gentlemen of the town of Danbury, who signed the certificate, concerning Jonathan Robbins, I have become convinced, from further examination of the subject, that the said Jonathan Robbins was not a native of this town, nor ever resided here—and that the gentleman who so certified were not only honest and candid in giving such certificate, but certified the truth. The said publications in the aforesaid papers must therefore must be considered as erroneous and incorrect.
My intention in publishing the observation in the aforesaid papers were not to reflect on the characters of those gentlemen who certified, but the inaccuracy herein contained originated from mistake,
SAMUEL MORSE. Those Printers in the United States who have printed the aforesaid publications are requested to publish the above.
To the Editor of the AURORA.
Why do you not publish the following.
From the Charleston City Gazette. Manliusville, 15th Sept. 1800.
Messieurs FRENEAU & PAINE, A LETTER copied from the Aurora, having been inserted in your Gazette of Saturday last, signed JOHN ADAMS, and purporting from its contents to have been written to Mr. TENCH COXE, of Philadelphia, in the year 1792, wherein are contained some comments on my appointment as minister plenipotentiary to the court of Great-Britain; I think it right at present only to state, that this letter either is a forgery, calculated for electioneering purposes, or, if genuine, must have been founded on a misapprehension of persons. This last suggestion I infer from facts alluded to in the letter, and from the subsequent nomination of my brother, General Pinckney, to two highly confidential offices by its supposed writer.
To my fellow-citizens of South Carolina, who have so often honored me by testimonies of their confidence, I should deem it unnecessary to urge a syllable of justification from such charges as are implicated in this production, however authenticated; but as it appears, from the time of its publication, to be calculated for more extensive influence, I have deemed it of importance publicly to state what is above, that those persons who may be unacquainted with the characters concerned, may be guarded against giving credit, either to the authenticity or justice of this performance, until the event of investigation, which I will immediately commence, shall be made public.
THOMAS PINCKNEY.
FEDERAL MEETING.

LONDON, August 21:
Another revolution has taken place in Switzerland. The legislative and executive authorities have been changed; a new legislative council of forty-three members has been appointed, and a new executive council of seven. The grand council submitted to these alterations without a murmur; but they met violent opposition in the Senate. A commission was appointed to report upon them; but the executive government, displeased at this delay, summoned the President to convoke the Senate, in order to decide immediately upon the proposition submitted to them. The Senate passed to the order of the day. Twenty-one members however, retired, and signified their acceptance of the alterations. The remainder, though not sufficient numbers to deliberate, declared that they rejected them, and separated. The proposed alterations were then carried into execution without any opposition on the part of the people.
DENMARK.
The following Articles of the Treaty of Commerce between Great Britain and Denmark, relate to the present subject supposed to be in dispute:—
Art. 3. The undersigned Sovereigns engage mutually for themselves, their heirs and successors not to furnish their respective Enemies, if they shall be the aggressors, with any assistance in war, such as Soldiers, Arms, Cannons. Ships or other Articles necessary to the carrying on the war. If the subjects of either of the undersigned Sovereigns, shall act in contravention with the present Article, the King, whose subjects so shall act, shall be bound to proceed against them with the greatest severity and treat them as seditious persons and persons guilty of an enfranchisement of the Alliance.
Art. 20. And in order to prevent the freedom of Navigation, and the free passage of either Ally and his subjects from becoming prejudicial to the other in case of war on the part of one of the undersigned Sovereigns against any other Power by sea or land; and in order to prevent any goods or merchandizes, the property of the Enemy, from being fraudulently concealed under pretence of Alliance; and finally, in order to prevent all fraud and to remove all suspicion it is thought fit that the Ships, Merchandize, and Subjects belonging to the other Confederates, shall be accompanied by passports and certificates in the following &c.
It is hardly necessary to observe, that the requisition of these passports and certificates includes a right to search for them, if such right were not fully recognized to be part of the General Law of Nations.
VIENNA, July 25.
Every thing announces the restoration of harmony between our Cabinet and that of Petersburg. A corps of 60,000 Russians are certainly on their march under the command of Generals Soltikoff and Rebender. Paul has consented that 40,000 recruits from his provinces in Poland shall be incorporated with the Austrian troops even should peace be concluded.
August 3.
The reports with respect to Peace seem to be more consistent since the arrival of a courier from London, who brings, it is said, on the part of his Court, professions and assurances favourable to a general Negotiation.
The Queen of Naples is expected in the beginning of this month. Her Majesty will proceed immediately on her arrival to Carlsbad, with the Elector of Cologne, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, the Archduke Palatine, the Archduke Ferdinand, and the Conforts of the last three Princes.
NEW-YORK, September 29.
Last Saturday arrived the ship Maria, Capt. Henry, in 31 days from London, by which regular files of papers to August 22, are received at this office. By these papers we learn with respect to our mission to France, nothing but vague and contradictory reports. Some Paris Journals represent the Negotiation as suspended for the reasons assigned in the long extract we give to day. Others asserting that every thing is proceeding in a fair train. That our Commissioners are treated with marked respect; and that an accommodation of differences is likely to be effected. To solve the mystery we must refer our readers to the President's speech next December.
The English papers take it for granted, that France and Austria have concluded no Peace. Every thing confirms us in this belief. The conditions are not yet officially announced. This subject indeed occupies and interests all the continental powers, and a general Congress is a measure that must soon take place.
Meantime England united in sentiment, and vigorous in council, mediates nothing but war. Her ministers seem determined to continue the contest with unrelenting enterprise and ardour. Several formidable expeditions have failed; one of which is certainly destined for Egypt, and the assassination of Kleber, which seems probable, gives the promise of a speedy and fortunate issue. The taking of Malta is another object towards which they have directed another powerful force. These expeditions, formed in the deepest policy and conducted with profound secrecy, will give the British the command of the Levant, and free them at once from all fears of future machinations against the East-India establishments. While these important conquests will give to Britain at the approaching negotiations for a general peace, which must soon take place, a right to take high ground and insist on the most ample security against the secret intrigues and open violence of her implacable foes. This energy of her ministers is supported by the general spirit of the country. Her navy never appeared more determined in valor or actuated by a
higher and bolder enthusiasm. The hardy design of attacking the Brest Fleet in their very harbor, is talked of as a probable event.
Bonaparte on the other hand, in some measure relieved from the care of the armies, is turning his whole attention to his marine, and seems resolved to employ the whole resources of his genius and power in placing the navy of France in a condition to face the Fleet of England.
A new danger threatens Britain in the North—Russia, Sweden, Denmark and Prussia are meditating an armed neutrality, a measure which if entered on may materially affect the trade of England.

ELECTION.
Walnut Ward.
The Election for inspectors in the above ward is to be held at Mr. Smiths Tavern in Walnut street, three doors above Front street, on Saturday the 4th of October. Federalists be at your polls on that day.
Be it remembered by the independent free-men of America, that the persons calling themselves Republicans and friends to the people, consisting chiefly of United Irishmen, run-away Scotchmen and English convicts, have declared through the medium of one of their Democratic papers, that they with the enemies of the French Government [not the enemies of the American government] to be laid prostrate at their feet and become humble suppliants for mercy! ! !
It appears that those brave fellows who are in the military service of the United States have been ordered to quell the Negroes. Hence those Virginia Demo's who a few days since slighted our veterans and contemptuously called them mercenaries, now look to them for salvation.
The fellow who is said to be attempting to effect a reconciliation between four Jacobin candidates for one office, has endeavoured to make the deluded mortals who read the Aurora believe, that a hand-bill, lately circulated in favor of one of the candidates, was printed at the office of the Gazette of the United States. This adds but one more to the numerous list of falsehoods published daily in the French Jacobin Gazette, and one thousand would be deemed trifling to secure a share of one hundred and seventy-five thousand dollars.
The Cock-fighter, Tim Matlack having one day gaff'd himself, by putting on a long sword, was met by a friend who wished to know why he wore a Rapier—Tim replied, it was to defend his liberty and property.
As to property rejoined the friend, it is well known thee never hadst any; and as to thy liberty, thou art now indebted to thy creditors for that.
This worthy belongs to the addressing committee composed of Tench Coxe, F. A. Muhlenberg, Sammy Bryan, Jacob Carpenter and the Cock-fighter.
Our libertees and property are in blessed hands.
Stephen Sayre the noted speculating bankrupt banker, formerly of London, who was however in France during all the reign of blood and terror, from whence he came to this country in the service of Talleyrand, has prevailed on that poor whirligig Jofey Bloomfield to join him in an immense speculation, viz. to convert all the good people of Jersey to Atheists and French Jacobins, on which Sayre expects Mr. Jefferson will make him Secretary of the Treasury, and poor Jofey is promised by Sayre the place of General Hamilton as Commander in Chief of the Armies of the United States.
Extract from Essays on Political Society, now printing by M. William Young.
In Surveying the political scene exhibited on the western hemisphere, the attention is attracted by that interesting phenomenon a Council of Statesmen, convened by legislative delegation from different parts of the empire to consult on the general weal, and to propose what they should deem most advisable for ameliorating the political system. In that Council, are to be seen, men accustomed to the walks of science and to the scenes of active life; men experienced in policy and in arms; of noble minds and polished manners; pillars of state, formed to support, as well as to ornament, the fabric of the social order. To regard them as but "the corinthian capital of polished society," would be far, I trust, from flattering that dignified council in which Washington presided.
Too intent on the interests of their country, too conversant in great affairs, too great in their real honors, to suffer the dignity of their public character to be degraded by the illusions of personal vanity, the framers of the American constitution do not appear to have thought of themselves, except in common with their countrymen. They were not vain enough to believe, that, to guard against the dangers of their personal influence, they ought themselves to be subjected to a species of ostracism, and be prohibited from administering the constitution which they proposed. In a word, they were not vain enough for that ostentation of what was called the French constituting assembly. If they were free from this the more amiable species of vanity which displays itself in political insolence: They did not require a proportion of their own number to be designated for administering the proposed government.
Having completed the laborious work for which they were delegated, the framers of the American constitution refer it to the will of society, through the medium of legislative authority; and themselves revert to the mass of citizens. Not a single function of public administration, have they exercised, during the time of their being convened, nor have the ordinary operations of government been suspended for a moment.
The form of political association, which they have proposed as the result of their labours, is to receive its authoritative existence from the fiat of society. Nothing is yet changed; but an event of lower-ign importance is approaching. A revolution, without parallel in the annals of empire, is hastening to its accomplishment. The efficacy of reason is the force on which the whole depends. To introduce a new form of government, there is no appeal to instruments of death, no display of constitutive armies, no forced choice of two thirds marching into office through the blood over the corpses of their countrymen.
At length, the national will is manifested. The prior form of government is entombed in the commencement of a new order of things. Society, recognizing its political omnipotence, has willed its permanent constitution. The constituted authorities are executing that will.
It is an order of things commencing under the dominion of reason and peace. The renovation of empire, like the rejuvenescence of nature, exhibits the world as a waking to life. Young and fair as the morning of spring, a moral aurora has appeared. A nation is regenerated. From the West, the glorious morning springs up the front of Heaven.
Extract of a letter from Virginia.
The slave holders in our county will no longer permit the Aurora and other Jacobin papers to come into their houses as they are convinced the late insurrection is to be attributed entirely to this source and to incendiary handbills and pamphlets from the same press.

From the N. Y. Daily Advertiser.
The information relative to the massacre of the Americans at Currao by the French, as stated in a morning paper of Saturday, was received by the British schooner Alexander, capt. Hastings. We have endeavoured to lift the business, which is stated in those words by capt. H.
"On the 2d September a French privateer failed from Guadalupe, and captured an American vessel, on board of which she put a prize-master and crew, and ordered her for that port. She was afterwards re-captured by the British ship of war Tamar, and sent to Port-Royal, Martinique, where she arrived on the 6th. On board of this vessel, (then in possession of the French prize-master) were found some French newspapers printed in Guadalupe, which stated that the expedition which had failed from that port against Currao had succeeded, and that the Americans who had assisted the Dutch were all massacred. This the French prize-master on examination before the authority, attended to as matter of fact."
For the 72 hours preceding Monday, Sunday, there were 56 deaths in Baltimore. Total number in the hospital sick with the prevailing disease, 37 Convalescents 9 Discharged cured since last report, 4

MADRAS, January 18.
On the 11th ult in lat 20 15, north long 9 44 east, the American ship Atlantic in co. with the Eliza Anne, made a signal at ten A M for a sail in the N E quarter, captain Barker raked and flooded to the southwest.
At 4 P M the strange sail hoisted English colours, upon which captain Barker did the same, about half an hour after, the sail being within gun-shot to the windward, hauled down the English ensign and hoisted the French national flag, firing at the same time a broadside on the Eliza Anne which instantly returned.
Both ships now kept up a brisk fire, which continued an hour and ten minutes, the Atlantic also firing upon the enemy with her six pounders, and then wore ship to get into closer action; the enemy sheered off for the night. At fifty minutes past seven in the morning, the Atlantic commenced the action by taking her to the windward, within pistol shot; after a sharp action of about 20 minutes the French ship hauled her tack on board, and bore away, having all her pumps going.
Were it not for the Gentlemen Cadets and other passengers it would have been impossible for captain Barker to have fought, having lost thirty six of his crew by the survey; nor must we omit to mention the assistance of two lady passengers, who, entering into the spirit of the contest, kept handing up cartridges during the engagement, and in preparing a further supply during the night of the 11th.
Three of the Cadets on board the Eliza were slightly wounded, but none killed.
Dancing Academy.
MR. QUESNET, with respect informs his pupils and the public in general, that he intends opening his Academy, on Monday the 6th of October, at his new assembly room, No. 64, fourth Fourth street.
Mr. Quesnet is thankful to the Ladies and Gentlemen, for the liberal encouragement he has experienced every season—he was desirous for some time to meet with a gentleman of whom the character and talents, could, united together deserve the confidence of the public; deprived of such advantage, Mr. Q. has always thought proper to divide and fix the number of pupils; but this season the school can be improved one third more, having to introduce Mr. Auriol, as an assistant to him, and a person of ability. The scholars shall be attended three times a week as usual—Ladies in the morning; young Gentlemen in the afternoon; and grown Gentlemen in the evening.
N. B. The first practising ball in private for the scholars, will be a few days after the opening of the school; and the first ball will be on Thursday, the 16th October next.
Dancing.
MR. AURIOL lately arrived from Paris, respectfully informs the public in general, that having some time to dispose of, he will attend those Ladies and Gentlemen, who wish to be taught private at their own houses.
His lodgings are at No. 32, fourth Third street, where directions can be left with his lady if he is absent.

THE Subscriber begs leave to inform the Public that he has taken that well-known Inn, the INDIAN QUEEN, lately kept by Mr. James Thompson, deceased, and solicits their patronage as well as the patronage of those Gentlemen who were accustomed to give it their support, assuring them that it shall be conducted on the same liberal plan which characterized it when under the superintendence of his predecessor. The house has undergone a thorough repair, and it would be needless to oblige to those who know them, that the stables are, in spaciousness and convenience, unequalled in Philadelphia, and the best provision and attendance are always provided for horses, by the Public's obedient servant.

Prevention better than Cure. For the prevention and cure of Bilious and Malignant Fevers, is recommended, DR. HAHN'S  Anti-bilious Pills, WHICH have been attended with a degree of success highly grateful to the inventor's feelings, in several parts of the West-Indies, and the southern parts of the United States, particularly in Baltimore, Petersburg, Richmond, Norfolk, Edenton, Wilmington, Charleston, Savannah, &c. The testimony of a number of persons in each of the above places can be adduced, who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy, has, under Providence, preserved their lives when in the most alarming circumstances. Facts of this conclusive nature speak more in favour of a medicine, than columns of pompous eulogy, founded on mere assertion, could do. It is not indeed presumptuously proposed as an infallible cure, but the inventor has every possible reason, which can result from extensive experience for believing that a dose of these pills, taken once every two weeks during the prevalence of our annual bilious fevers, will prove an infallible preventative; and further, that in the earlier stages of those diseases, their use will very generally succeed in restoring health and frequently in cases esteemed desperate and beyond the power of common remedies. The operation of these pills is perfectly mild and may be used with safety by persons in every situation and of every age. They are excellently adapted to carry off superfluous bile and prevent its morbid secretions; to restore and amend the appetite; to produce a free perspiration and thereby prevent colds which are often of fatal consequence. A dose never fails to remove a cold if taken on its first appearance. They are celebrated for removing habitual costiveness, sickness of the stomach and severe head-ache, and ought to be taken by all persons on a change of climate. They have been found remarkably efficacious in preventing and curing most disorders attendant on long voyages, and should be procured and carefully preferred for use by every seaman.
DR. HAHN'S  Genuine Eye-water. A certain and safe remedy for all diseases of the eyes, whether the effect of natural weakness, or of accident, speedily removing inflammations, defluxions of rheum, dullness, itching, and films in the eyes, never failing to cure those maladies which frequently succeed the small pox, measles and fevers, and would utterly strengthen a weak sight. Hundreds have experienced its excellent virtues when nearly deprived of sight.
Tooth-ache Drops. The only remedy yet discovered which gives immediate and lasting relief in the most severe instances.
The Anodyne Elixir. For the cure of every kind of head-ache, and of pains in the face and neck.
Infallible Ague and Fever Drops. This medicine has never failed, in many thousand cases not one in a hundred has had occasion to take more than one bottle, and numbers not halt a bottle. The money will be returned if the cure is not performed.
