DR. NORRIS's DROPS.

THESE DROPS are particularly adapted to this
Season of the Year. They are an efficacious coi,i-
borative in sea-bathing, and as,ist the good quail ies of the
vafious Medical Waters ; they are, indeed, as the Se who are
in the habit of taking them can testify, a powerful restor-
ative and preserver of health. In Fevers of all sorts (espe-
cially the Yellow or Putrid) they are an.infidlible Remedy ;
Asthinas' beginning Consumptions, Complaints of
the Stomach and Bowels, &c. are undertheir immediate in-
fluence, as the experience cif more than half a century has
indubitably proved.
As no Bottle, even for exportation, can be sold, withdnt a
Stamp, the possibility of-imposing a Counterfeit on the Pur,
chaser i 3 prevented, the genuine having the name of Thomas
Norris Moore engraved thereon by favour of CoVernment.

The SOLICITOIt..GUNERAL stated to the Jury that
the Defendant in this cause was an attorney, resid-
ing at Louth, in Lincolnshire, who, under various
pretexts, had induced Mr. Simpson, a returner of
King's money, to advance him a sum -itif 'about
ii,nool„ Not being
.able. to procure there-pay'-ment,
,an extent was issued against the Defendant,
under which the Sheriff of Lincolnshire had taken
possession of his property. The debt was'admitted,
but this honest attorney, in return for Mr. Sis kind-
ness to him, now endeavoured, by this honest Ma-
nceuvre, to' do away the debt altogether, for that
was in etTha
.to be the ()Wed of the present at-
tempt. Marris pleaded, that, if any debt were due,
it was due to Messrs. J. Simpson and Co. and not
to Mr. Simpson. Thelad Sir T. "PLUMER further
stated to be, that Mr. S. advanced this money by
giving Mania a credit, upon his firm in London,
who accepted his drafts, but that the house regularly
charged. Mr. S:'s private account for the same, and
that in faet there was not even an account open

IRELAND.

Dints, Mit 9.--The rioters who have assumed.
the name of Thrashets have lately recommenced
their meetings, and committed some arts di violence'
in the county of Roscommon. On Friday night,
last they held a meeting near the residence of Sir
Edward Crofton, who, on being apprised of the
cireumitanee, lost no time m preparing to endeavour
to bring.the offenders to justice. Though labour-
ing under some personal intirtnit, Sir Edward put
himself at the head of his servants and tenants, and
about eleven at night came up with. a jarge body of
Thrashers at the ford of Kiliouni, who,
,on per-
ceiving his approach, tivide 'dispositions for giving
resistance. A conflift took place, in which three of
these deluded,wretches lost their lives,. and seven
were taken prisoneis. The remainder tied in such
consternation that it is hoped they feel the danger of
desist from
..,the. courses they were purring, ‘.7.:.
any aitempt to renew them.
lastitatot, MAY 7.—Yesterday morning,
the hour of one o'clock, sonic villains, supposed
seven in number, armed with blunderbusses and
pistots,, went to the house of Mr. Patrick Hogan,
sen. on the lands of 'Cahir, in this cou,''l, and
breaking onen the door, two of the felloWs
.went to
the bed o' James Hogan, his sou, whom they struck
with the butt-end ola pistol ; they then forced open
some drawers in the room, and took thereout
.. guineas in Limerick notes, and 14 guineas and. a
halt in other bank-notes, besides wearing apparel,
spirits, &c. The above James Hogan, and PattVli,
his. brother, assisted by John Welsh, of Fedamore,
pursued two of the ging, and were so fortunate as to
trace them towards this town, near the gate of Ed-
mond Morony, Esq. at Ballyclogh, one of the High
,Sheriff+ of this city, where they secured them about
4 o'clock, notwithstanding their being well armed.

Mr. S. were allowed to sweep All his etietits in the
way contended for.
His Lordship, in summing up• with. his usual abil
lity, stated, that although the King's name was used
in this process, the King, in fitht, had nothing to
do with it, other than to secure the public money
foi the public good; that as receiver of the public
Money, Mr.eS: was liable to certain strong measure'
necessary for its security, and that in return he was
entitled to the advanthge of the prerogative procest
for the recovery of it. That when the observation
was made 'by MrIHoLaoYD or the hardship it
would be to Marris s other creditors, he could not
help turning a few pages back in his note book,
:and
to tell the Jury that there was no pretence for. the
observation, it -being no longer a question between
assignees and Mr. S. but with Marris himself: that-
question, he said, had been determined, in a case
few days before,' when a most fraudulent and dis-
graceful attempt had' been made, on the part of the
Lincolnshire lawyer, to 'trum p • up a commission of
bankruptcy with a little butcher, panned Tharratt,
in order to support that proceeding; but •as that
would not bear the light, and tia had- been com-
pletely bloWn up, he should lout that quite out or
their consideration. The only question was, wile-.
titer this was a private or a joint debt ; and if they.
bet red the evidence of the witness, and that con-
firmed by the books, which he confessed had carried
the fullest convrdiJn to his mind, bethought they
could have no doubt. .
The Jury instantly give a verdia in 'favour of this

It is a circumstance neither honourable to our taste, nor to
MD national feeling, that an hundred years have elapsed since
the death of Dryden (one of the greatest names in English
Poetty) without having furnished a Complete Edition of
his Works. In the earlier part o(the last century, it is pos.
&me that the metal and unbounded admiration of Pope, and
the school,ol Poetry which jie founded, diverted the public
attention from a Writer inferior in taste though excelling him
in genius ; deficient in correeness, though tar superior in
energy of thought and diction. But as it is long since the
public have looked back With a favourable eye on the works
of the ancient and powerful Peets of the seventeenth century,
it is reamed that a Complete ll,dition of Orydel.'s Waiting;,
comprehending his nriginal Works of every description, Inuit
now be odiltsidered as filling up the disgraceful blank in the
literature at England.. -
The Text in this publication is given accurately from tare

PUticELL v. MACNAMARA. , • '
In, this, cause. the Loan- CIiANCELI.4 expressed
a wish,to hear from tier ComAeld of the Defenciant,
their 'opinions on _the exceptidn .as. to the um of
eleven:thousand pounds. fie 'felt awa re, hat- fi-om
the nature of the _proceedings, it was sorripeient
for the Counsel on the.part of the Plaintiff to.have
a re-hearing et the cause, if they supposed, the 'ori-
ginal deert4.: Considering that decree,
in his 'own opinion, fullradetfuate,..lie, upon
it, did think, that as the estate of the Plaintiff
was only made surety for the debt of the brother,
John Purcell,. it was naturally it matter ,of right
that her Otate should be credited with his assets'; -
that is, that as much of the- debt .due to IVlactia-
tram' as was liquidated by the assets of the..brii.,
ther,:for so .runch had the present Plaintiff a right
upon herestatu to be credited. The Loan CIIAN-=
cELLott appeared 'an%ions to hear the, opiniads: of
both' parties, but recommended-to-,Mr. Micuarnara!s
Counsel to peruse the 1t th exception, and ;
con-
sider whether it was not their interest to 'pander
upon ,the:oliservations he felt it his duty to .t lake.
Messrs. AGAR and IHOMPSONargued, that 'ac-•
cbrdiftg Ao,the decisiori:' of the Cohn, the ream- •
mendationnf hiS Lordship was ;not with there. Jr
was, true, that the Master-had, in contradiction to
the order, introduced the assets of the son, where
it was imperative to ascertain those of 'the lather..
But as the Court had over-ruled .that exception,
they contended it was. out. of the purview of his
Lordship theft to. entertain them.
The Loan CHANCELLOR,—," Upon that point,
you, Gentlemen, will set -as you think proper. It
is my. wish tthillow an oppottunity, on Saturday
next, of hearing argnmenti upon it. If you decline
it, I will consider it as the exercise of a sound dis-
cretion should it be argued I will hear them with

Colonel SANDELS, Chief of Brigade, touching a
severe battle which has been fought in the vicinity
of Idensalmi :

" Since the Armistice, concluded between the
Swedish and Russian 'armies; was declared to be at
an end, a Russian Officer arrived from Lieutenant-
General TUTSCHKOFF, with the intelligence that
hostilities would be immediately recommenced.
" Soon after I received a Report that my advanced
posts had been attacked by the Russians, and com-
pelled, by the enemy's great superiority in number,
to
-fall back to Werda Bridge, which was soon after
broke down after the troops had crossed it. , A ;vio-
lent cannonade immediately commenced by the
enemy from the neighbouring heights, which was
vigorously returned from our side,
.and Prince Doi.-
GORUCKI, who commanded the Russian van, was
mortally wounded at the beginning of the gtion, and
expired scion after., In the mean time the enemy's
chasseurs and infantry crossed the bridge, which
they had repaired, formed in line, and advanced
against, our troops, notwithstanding the vigorous;
cannonade which was ••kept ap- from outbatteries,:
which they attempted to•catry, but were repulsed
'by Oiit'frOCipS-with the utmost intrepidity andVhf-Otit,
and piltstred as far as Weida Bridge. In this action:
