ON THE IIIEDICI.VAL PROPERTIES OF

TURPENTINE.

We have always considered that one of our im-
portant duties as public Journalists, is to recorJ and
give every possible publicity to any discovery which
tends to the real benefit of mankind, and in the dis-
charge of that duty we present to our readers the
following copy of a string of resolutions which have
been passed by the Physicians, Surgeons, and Apo.
thecaries of Dublin. It will remiin for the College
of Physicians of London to perform their duty by
either controverting, or at once confirming, the as-
sertion of their brethren on the other side the water,
as to a discovery of so vital importance to the com-
munity.
___• . . _

*. We, the Phyaiciacs, Surgeons, and Apothecaries, whose
names are underwritten, du hereby certify and declare,
_ _

•• That we consider the discovery of the medicinal properties of
On. of TURPENTINE as one of the greatest that has ever
been made in Physic.
" That we are still firmly impressed with the propriety of
Blood letting in extreme cases of internal inflammation; hot ti as
even in these, the Oil of Turpentine will be found a powerful
acyamenturn; almost instantaneously remo.ing the .pain, and
doing away the necessity for any further depletion of cue Vas. u-
lar system.
• That the benefits derived from the employment of this
remedy, in cases of spasms and inflammation, however great, are
trivial, when compared with its effects in puerperal or child-bed
fever.

'• That it appear. from medical history, that child bed fcvcr
has hitherto desolated society in every part of the globe where it
has appeared, and the instances of recovery from that dreadf.ll
malady are so few as justly to entdle it to the appellation of an
Incurable Disease.

" That it falls within the knowledge of such of us as art
engaged in the practice of Midwifry, that the Oil of Turpentbre
is an infallible specific in this complaint; and that Although Whir
remedies may with advantage beenr,ploycd in conjunction, yet that
to the specific influer.ce of Turpentine we ascribe the removal of
the disease of child .bed fever in every ease.
" That mankind is indebted for this great discovery to the
zeal, ability, and industry of Dr. John Broom. That we behest
his humane dischwure of this very important secret has been the
means of saving a multitude of hies, and that it will even
prove to be one of the most valuable legacies that ever were be-
queathed to posterity by the genius of an individual.
" That we hold his discovery to be greater than that of Dover
Jenner, inasmuch as that Small Poi had an antidote, and that
l'hiirl-bed Fever had not; mat
" That for this his very great discovery, we deem Dr. Bremen
deserving of the gratitude of the whole human race, and emi-
nently entitled to any reward which the bounty of Govemmtnt
an bestow."

In the Court of Chancery on Thursday, during a con-
versation between the Chancellor and the Counsel, Ids
Lo.dship took occasion to say that he spoke to the
Gentlemen of the Ear as he would speak to his own
family, and accordingly he took the liberty of telling
them, that in his opinion they might shorten their
speeches with t doing any injury to their clients.—Mr.
Montague said, it would be extremely desirable that his
Lordship's recommendation should be a►tended to, as
the liar glair was very much fatigued with the long
speeches that were occasionally delivered.—Mr. Herald
—" I should wish my lord, that Mr. Montague were
the first to set an example of short speeches."—(Air.
Monique, nu later than Wednesday, spoke upwards of
two hours an a bankrupt petition.)
Two of the Commissioners appointed by the act
for inquiring into Charities, will, it is said, meet at
Ulverstone in a few days, and proceed thence into
the county of Cumberland, for the purpose of esa•
mining into the amount, nature., and application of
pll the estates and funds appropriated to charitable
aurpows.
Requisitions are now signing to be presented to
the bight Hon. the Lord Mayer, for the purpose of
obtaining meetings of the Court of Common Council
and also of a Common Hall, to express the senti-
ments of the Corporation and Livery of London, on
the late proceedings of the magistracy and military
at Manchester.

AUGUST 30.

SECOND SMITHFIELD MEETING.

ly one o'clock on Alrednesday great numbers had
tirseinbled in every part of Smithfield, and by three
o'clock there were thousands collected together in every
direction. A man then appeared with a placard, an-
sitmtticing that " the Meeting will commence at four
o'clock; keep order." Just before four, Alderman
Wood passed across Smithfield, on horseback, and was
greeted with hozzis. Previously to this, entetssive pre.
cautions and arrangements had been made by the civil
power ; and at three o'clock, the Lord Mayor, attended
by his Clerk, and some other persons in private dress,
went on foot to Gilts's& Street, Canister. Those who
happened to be assembled treated his Lordship and the
party with great respect, making way for than to pass up
o the prison door steps.
At four o'clock exactly, .a wagon, drawn by one
torse, appeased in view. It cattle from St. John
Street point, and went round the market till it halted
aithe place wherelise previous meeting was heW —lt
was ((thawed by immense numbers; however the as
multiage was not much above half as large as the last
Smithfield Meeting; hot there could not be fewer than
36t or 40,000 persons present. In the wagon were
seteral persons said to be belonging to the Co tttttt ittees.
They carried the batmen previously used ;—" Peace
and Goodwill"—" Universal Suffrage"—" England,
Scotland, and Ireland"—and " Liberty or Death."—
The waggon having halted, a hackney coach imme-
rbately afterwards drove up, and there cause front it Dr.
'Watsou, Thistlewood, &c. who instantly ascended the
waggon amidst applauses.
Mr. Phillips, in the absence of Mr. Hunt, begeed
40 propose that Dr. Watson be called to the char; a
proposition that was immediately agreed to.
Dr. Watson then ascended a chair in the waggon ;
and silence being obtained, he proceeded to state, that
he, in common with his friends, felt st anxious so
preserve the peace of the country. As far as they were
concerned, it was deterouted that it should be kept ;
but unfortunately, the parties opposed to them, had not
followed their example—they had constituted breaches
of the peace, and some of their countrymen had fallen
.victims to the tin happy disturbances that had taken place.
tie shell went on to state, that Sir C. Wolseley had beets
invited to the chair, by Mr. Illandford, now in custody,
to which he had returned the following answer:—

"Si n.—l have been favoured with your letter of the 20t1t inst.
sedum on behalf of the two committees of Surrey and Middlesex.
In reply, I beg to astute you. that although I shall always feel
great pleasure in contnbuung eny MCIVICeS towards the promotion
a public good. in every possible way, yet under existing Ciletllll
stances, it becomes indispensably necessary fur every individual
invited to attend.at any private or public meeting to be preekdaly
Vim/tied of t/A. precis,• old de,oiroitc Mier* to waich the attention
.of the assembly is to be directed, as also the measures proposed
to be adopted.
A particular engagement in which, however. I ant now, and
4hall be for some dart. engaged, in furtherance of the great cause
apolitical liberty, precludes the possibility of acening 10 your
with, and thereby renders any enquiry as to the particular objects
of the meeting entirely unneceseary.
" As. however, it is. I presume, for &good political object, you
car. find no difficulty in meeting with some gemleman in London,
whose local connections will add weight and importance to the
Meeting.
" And I am, Sir, your obedient, &c.
" C. WOLSELEY.

4. Wolseley Park. Aug. eg. 1819."
Addressed to J. E. Blandford, hackney, London.
Dr. Watson resumed, toe bceretary drat io4 read the
letter. He contended that the people were alive to their
rights mid liberties, and that they never failed to show a
becoming anxiety to support theist. Heretofore they had
been addressed by persons in the higher walks; but
where were those persotts nowt He was one of the
." lower orders ;" tie was one of ttientselves ; and nothing
should itithiCe him to cease to be one of the " lower
orders." Some of them had depended on the" middling
orders;" but even the middling orders had forsaken
them ; they
.had now nothing to do but to take tare of
:their own interests. It because them to fulfil their
duties uieueli. arid they were properly looking up to
their natural leaders. The Black Dwarf contended that
it was doe to Mr. Hunt that the meeting should be de-
ferred until 1114 was stabled to preside, that he might
chow the Nlatichester Authorities lone the Powers in
London would behave.—(Cries of" say oothiug against
)l'ooler—he's right.") Major Cartwright had been ap.
.plied to, and the following was his answer:—
" DEAR it be true-that any steps have been taken
towards the holding of another meeting in snittlitield. on Vi ed
Jlesda, next. as from your note f thus &Hernial') you Weill to

1 ie./hen ended that he had a string of resolutions to lay
Lathe the meeting, to which, he had not the least doubt
they would cordially agree.
'lle resolutions were then read.
The first suited, that the voice of the
°people assembled on that
seicoasions ought to be raised as a constitutional means of stop.
ping the progress of misely, and of saving the country from
massacre.
2. That the htlitistrates had assumed a power dangerous to
the security of the people. That power had increased, was in-
