TT•iVaS a remark of the celebrated Dr. Eittchan.
Author_ of the Doinestic Medicine, that ~mplaints of
the Stomach and Rowels are the prevailing Malady 'of this
Coittitry, which lay the foundation of the more formidable
and fatal Diseases; that the person -who could discover for
the relief and cure a sale and tufallib*, remedy would per-
firm a most important service to society. That discovery
has now been made in the Patent Antihiljous Pill* of the
Rev. William Ilarday, the extensive sale of which,' and
the .high estimation in which they are deservedly held, ha
considerably lessened the .number of these complaints; an
bids rair, in a short time, to be the means of entirely eradi-
cating them; These Pills have a quick 'and safe operation,
they:ad powerfully and specitivally on the bile,' and thus

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

61R,

Aware of the desperate dilenma to which the Op-
,paiition ore reduced, and expeaing something un-

common from the result of their Midsummer lucu-
brations, I certainly was not astonished at the plan
of attack which they have thought proper to prepare.
They come forward strong in the salutiferous
ample Of their own Administration, and at least may
boast that they have assisted us to discover the course
we should pursue, by having clearly shown us the
course we should avoid. Besides, the bountiful, un-
interrupted flow of their misfortunes has given them
Unlimited privilege.to rail. Adversity is ever allowed
a latitude of tongue, and it is the prerogative of all

established ideots to abuse with impunity. Nor.do
we feel mach moved when we hear them repeat' old.
maxims by heart, and moralize with a certain mock
solemnity, that may be mistaken for convi6lion.

.It is. not surprising, therefore, that theFaClion
!lave at length adopted a new system of hostility,
and abandoning the detestable doctrines Which they
once upheld, have determined to edify us with a
sober course of leaures in morality—like the poor
ruined female, who now becoming ancient and un-
sightly, .knows no medium between prostitution and
prayer, and ends her life in a conventicle, as alio
began it in a brothel.

,The capture of Copenhagen afforded a plausible
opportunity for the commencement of thi3 hopeful
scheme ; and truly tho catastrophe, considered in
itself, admits of much pathetic declaMation. A
peaceful people are suddenly life ged into all the
horrors of War, by a. nation with whom they we►e
corresponding in terms of amity, and against whom

they had committed no hostile aa. Their town
hombaided, their navy seized, and their arsenals

plundered. But let us consider the principles upon

Which this ika is founded. It was evident that
BUUNA PA ATE would employ every species of treach-
ery and intrigue to finite Denmark in the confederacy
against us. On ,Denmark we had no reason to rely.
During the whole course of the War, she uniforrply
sided with France, and appeared less jealous of her
political than of our commercial preponderance.
While our Fleets and. Armies were believed to be
fair remote from the Sound, a French Army was ap.
proaching to Holstein, for the purpose of imposing
upon Denmark whatever conditions force could exaa

from fettr, flow then were' we to counterpoise the

prevailing iotinenee of France, and prevent Den-
, mark from yielding without alternative, to the sug-
gestions of terr, and perhaps of inclination.? The
tardiness of an Embassy would have availed nothing
against immediate force. While England Was nu-
gociating, France would be compelling. Treaty
would have produced delay—delay, preparation—
preparation, defeat. We should then have been
weaker, in efilza, by thirty Sail of the Line, and
our only consolation would have been, that' the
Faainn, which is at present employed in deprecating
:the enterprise, would' at last have acted like patriots'
by pointing it out as•the policy which ought to have
been pursued..
But, independent of thisatrected appeal to religion
and morality, they have adopted another wretched
:node of annoyance. " Produce your documents,'
is now their continual cry. Every measure must be
accounted for in black and white ; and papers, corn-
rmmicated in confidence, must be exposed to the
public eye. Theme men would'rqake their lives upon
-the good filth of the Danish Cabinet, but the•word
of an Engli:h Minister is not to he believed. Not
finding themselves rich in golden arguments, they
naturally: enough call for paper-credit : and yet one
would suppose paper a tender point with some of
them.

But for my own part, I can well imagine that
the men, whose works and words do not strictly

correspond, who first attempoto obtain what they
have no righ.t• to, and then contend 'for preservation
of property, may profeis a sort of mixed, accomr
modating niornlity, which would not even scruple' to
frrglicot Church from interest, and count heads from
choice.

Inspired, I suppose, by the same spirit of novelty,
they have lately placed Mr. PONSONBY at their head.
I am at a loss to conceive how. this unhappy Gentle-
man has ever proved himself worthy of beingim-
parted for public odium. Recolleaing his conduct
during the rebellion in Iraind, I am astonished to
see him step forward in so decisive a manner as he
has done. The moderation of his temper and the
meekness of his Chistianity then prevelited him, I
presnme, from drawing the sword in defence of
coUntry. He could not endure to. 'assist in
butchering those bloody-minded innocents, who
neither knew nor cared for what. they were con-

todivg. •

received this morning Hamturet and "Mona
Papers to the :..4th nit. with intelligence from Paris
to the ilia). The following are the mosi interesting
articles they contain :

LynccKi FEB. Ib.--W e have this moment re-
ceived intelligence from Riga, by an Estafote, that
RUSSIA HAS DECLARED WAR AGAINST
SWEDEN'.

eLLS, JAN. 2R.---An aCtion has been fought off
this coast between a Russian Frigate and two Eng-
lish Ship 3 of Wnr ; after suaie shots having been
fired on both sidon, the Frigate, which was ignorant
of war having been declared, was obliged.to sur-
render. It is said, that antrther engagement- has
taken place near Corfu, butt as yet we have received
-nothing certain respecting it.

. VENICE, FED. 3.---The report which was circus
laced that the Russian Fleet would winter here, is
tint confirmed; it is still in the Port of Trieste, 'and
the Rusisian troops which heretofore occupied Cat-
taro, Corfu., &c. have not yet left the Town and en-
virons of Padua and Treviso. It is not yet known
whether this corps will set out on it's march fur Rt!s-
sia through the Kingdom of Hungary.
ST. PL: rE s tur Ron, JAN. 30.—The, General of In-
fantry, Count litnutownEN., who has arrived in
this 'City, kin, it is said, obtained the command of
• the army in Finland.

4.lslArLgs, • Jnx. 26.—bn the I Itb instant a Di-
vision of Gun-boattc.conimanded by Lieut. PASCAL
DZ, CosA, • convoying thirty-eight • Transports, was
attacked at the anchorage of Oligasho, by two Bile-.
my's Brigs; the a&ion commenced at night-fall
and lasted tour hours, one of the Enemy's Ships
wig completely disabled, and the'other considerably
damaged.: on ow bide we lost the 'Gun-boat No. :;ti,
()aboard of which one sailor was killed_ and two
wounded ; but the Lieutenant had the courage to
repel the English, and the ability to conduit the
convoy under his protc&ion safe to the Port of Sa-
lerno. • • I

VAO.AIOOI.IDIFER. 2.—GonerUi Dorton. has his
headquarters in this, town; it is 'thought he will
soon leave it either to go to Salamanca or to joig, as
it is reported. at this ,moment, a corps of 30,000
Spaniards which' is assembled in the environs of
Madrid.

BANKS OF :mu Et.ue, FEB. 22.—The refusal of
England to co-operate in restoring peace to Europe,
is on the eve ofproducing Incasures, whose effe&s
will soon be felt upon the Continent ; what opera-

Lions will be undertaken by the, Armies of the gni-
peror of the wrench and his are not. yet
known ; but 'already, on all sides, Movements are
observed, which indicate the intention of taking the
field on the return of find Weather.

A fbrmidabje Army of French. and Spaniards is
assembling in Spain, winch will be increased to
1 bO,OOO men : preparations are punned with the
utmost aittivity on i be Iron tier., of'l

the) Wecer will bo placed on the right bank of the
fOrtne.7, and those which are bet wren the Vbere:;:r and
the. Elbe will immediately advance to the right bank
of the latter river.

DANTZIG, FEZ. 4.—ln the night between the
Ist and Vd of this month a fire broke Out in' the
tanneries of the Old Town, which raged with
such fury that notwithstanding all the assistance
that could be giVen it continued burning for
twenty-four hours. In the afternoon of the ad, an-
other conflagration, which thr6tened to be still
more dangerous than the former, broke out in a
large magazine, which had been made Into a bar-
rack, but the effe&ual exertions teat were made to
extinguish it, especially by the French troops,-soon
stopped the progress of the flames. The City pre-
sents a scene df desolation ; more than one hundred
buildings are:rednct.d to ashes. The steeple of
the Church of the Holy Ghost has fallen down, and
! many persons have been maimed and even lost their
lives on this disastrous occasion.

AUGSBURGH, FEB. 11.—The differences between
Bavaria and Wurtemburgh still continue. The Gar-
rison of Ulm has received orders to begin its march
for Ravensburgh, and the townspeople of the former
city will do military duty. General Baron WREDE
has set out for Munich ; we are assured that his
journey has a relation to the affair.
BANKS OF THE MAINE, FEB. 12.—The military
appointed to try the Generals who capitulated in
the late war, has begun its sittings at Memel.—
Gen. BLUCRER appeared first as an accused person
before this Tribunal, on account of the Capitula-
tion of Lubeck ; but his condua was unanimously
applauded, and, he took his seat among the Mem-
bers of the Court.

VENICE, JAN. 30.—Letters from Ancona state
that an English Fleet, composed of 26 Ships of all
sizes, has appeared off Corfu.
GENOA, Fus. 4.—A report is here in circulation
that the Spanish Fleets of Carthagena and Cadiz
have put to Sea.

TIM Leeward Island Mail has not brought any
intelligence of importance, except a confirmation of
the account of three or four French Frigates, full of
Troops, having arrived at Martinique, where they
are now blockaded by Admiral COCIMANZ.

No further intelligence hos been received respect-
ing the Rochefort Sqlkadron ; but of the taa of their
having entered the Mediterranean we do not now
entertain the smallest doubt. It is very possible
they may be able to form a junction with the Tou-
lon Fleet, bat we are not apprehensive that they
will be able to achieve any objel:t of importance, ,as
our Naval Force fit the Mediterranean amounts at
present to 17 Sail of the Line.

Sir RICHARD STRACHAN, as we stated some days
ago, passed Gibraltar on the 10th ult. he did
,not
stop, but oracle the following Telegraphic Commu-
nication to the Garrison :

" area fur °Sicily—liope we shall soon see

them."
Some persons have recently been apprehended at
Gibraltar, for carrying on a secret correspondence
with the Enemy, and supplying them with provi-
sions.

A report has been prevalent that a Flotilla, con-
sisting of a thousand Boats, ,full of troops, recently
sailed from ttte Toel. The. Ships also:in the' Onter
Diep, according torenart, had made sonie..more-
memts which seemed to indicate aniotention to come
forth. It has been: supposed that these Vessels are
proceeding coast-wide to the pcirts of France, while
others suppose that, they arc destined icrco-operate
With the,Frencli:and Danes in an Expedition against
Sweden. Admiral RUSSELL, as soon as he received
this intelligence, at Yarmouth, sailed to resume the
blockode of the Text'. .

The Spanish Packet captured and sent into Fowey
by the illatcH/ess Privateer,' Captain RAWLZNG, is a
beautiful vessel, mounting 16 guns, and carrying a
valuable cargo. Slie.was from Vigo, on her passage
to Buenos Ayres and Lima. The followireig account
of the present state of the Spanish Navy was found
in the Packet :--

At Cadiz-.4n commission, g Sail of the Line,
Frigates, 15 Corvettes—in ordinary, 3' Sail of the
Line, 7 Frigates, 10 Corvettes.

Man of \Var, I steered to intercept her; at half
past.twelvc I made the signal No. 2Z5, when she
hoisted an English ensign; at lralf past one, being
close up with her, I ordered a'shot to be fired over
her, to which was returned a broadside with round.
and grape, atter the Danish Colours were hoisted;
immediately bore down and brought her to close ac-
tion, which was obstinately sustained fur half SO
hour, when slke struck to his Majesty's Sloop mitt
