ICONSIDER, it but an ad. of justice due to. the
merits of yotir L E E's PATENT PILLS, to coin-
municate to you the following Cure which has recently been
performed by them:— An Acquaintance of mine, by the
breaking out of an old Venereal Complaint (attended by
complication of disorders arising therefrom), was reduced al-
most to a skeleton; and although he had the best medical ,
advice which could he obtained, and tried a varic'y of Patent
Medicines, nothing could be procured which- seemed to-suit
his case, or-to do him any service :he remained•in a InuA re.
duced and4Utiable situation tot two years, unable to follow
his profession, and scarcely able to walk or -even to stand on,
his legs in fad no one who knew him ever supposed it pos-
sible for him to recover, Ile was advised at last to try your
Leake's Pills—he did so, 'adhering strictly tp the directions
given with them. He had not taken more than two boxes be-
fore he found an alteration for the better: this encouraged
hint to proceed, and by taking a few boxes more he found
his appetite and strength grailitally return,- and is now as
healths and stout as any man I know. You are welcome;
Sir, to toter any peison to me for a confirmation of the above
account if it should be doubted. . .
I am, Sir, your obedient. humble servant,

LONDON,

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1806.

Tilts morning; we received Jamaica Papers to the
7th ult. They do not Contain any further intelli-
gence respeCting the British or French 'Squadrons in
the. West Indies. It doeS not appear that MIRANDA,
after hiS landing, had advanced with so much rapidity .
as was expected. On tihe. 9th of August he dis Patched
a 'Messenger to the Naval and Military,Corrimanders
at Jamaica, requesting assistance... The Messenger
arrived atjamaica oil the ibth, and on the 24th he
was sent back with an answer, that the-Naval and
Military' Commanders, at Jamaica, did not feel
themselves authorised in sending him any assistance
-without instruaions from Government. At -the,
time that MIRANDA dispatched the MeSsenger to
Jamaica, which was several days after he landed, he
Ltd not advanced beyond Coro.

The Diana Packet, arrived from Jamaica, touched
at Crookeakind oh the lath September; and found
Pitt's Town nearly demolished by -a dreadful hurri-
cane. The Speedwell, of Liverpool, was wrecked on
tiise North part of the Islan 3. crewsa. ved 3 an -Ame-
rican- Brig, the cre%v and p;:ssengers, 14 in number,
lost.

Yesferday,T,,ord Rosstrg. , ,who has bop on a,spe-
pial mission to the Court of Lisbon, arrived in town.

YESTERDAY a Messenger arrived at the Foreign
0,11.ce with Dispatches from St. Petersburgh. The
Poissian Troops are adVancing, with all possible
Epee 1, to the assistance of Prussia ; but we fear
they not quite so far advanced on the road
as has been stated.

The following account of the circumstances that
led to the Treaty signed at Paris by M. D'OUBRIL
etas, been circulated on the Continent. It is not,.
strialy speaking, an official Document, but. is sup,
posed to have been drawn up by order of the E,..1-
rEnot of RUSSIA, by Prince CZ ARTORINSK /
circumstances in it, respeaing the motives which
„ .
induted M. D'Qt:BuTt. to sign the Preliminary
Treaty 'at, Pacis, might appear wholly incredible if
they related to any Government .but that of BONA-
PARTE. yOUBRIL, of course, was only provided
by his Sovereign with the usual powers given' to a
Minister in his situation, and they were confined
within positive instrudlions. But fresh instru&ions,
restricting his powers within closer limitations, were
f4nt after him before he reached Paris : He was abso-
lutely forbidden from concluding any treaty otengage-
;merit. But, according to the statement we allude to,
BONAPARTE having resolved upon a measure which he
thought necessary to deceive Great Britain;-resorted
to artifice and menace, in order to accoinplish his
views through the medium of D'OUBRIL's fears.
For this purpose the Rupian Minister was earnestly
required to attend a conference at two in the morn-
ing. The room was, it seems, crowded' with Bo-
ntiPAßTE's Diplomatique Instruments, and all sorts
of arguments, expestulations, and threats, were em-
ployed, for sixteen hours, in order to induce the
llusiian Minister to sign the Treaty. Weakness,
terror, or the necessity of 4 temporizing policy, at
length induced D'puna.n. to consent, well knowing,
of 'Course,- that whatever he might sign would not
be, ratified at home, and conceiving that the very
extraordinary situation in which he was placed would
operate as an excuse for his condu&. The objet} of
France in this unparalleled mode of concluding a
Treaty was obvious : It was to impress Great Bri-
toin with a persuasion that Russia had withdrawn
from all co-operation- with this Country—Ahat the
rest of the Powers on the Continent wouli bc in-
clined to follow her example—and that, con-
sequently, they, would not attempt to rise any
?rmilable obstacles to the progress of- his am-
',bition. BONAPARTF., in six hours after the

siznautre of Cie Treaty was 'thus extorted from
b'QuEat. L, rat.itied it ; and in three hours after.the
fia of hi.; ratification, tuanuscriptcopies of the Ar-
ticLs it contained were put loft) public circulation.—

iris artltice--they run:lined f 4 in, and dcterrnin,:xl to

have an authentic knowledge of the proceedius of
Russia, unwilling to believe it possible that a Monarch
whose condua had been so disinterested and magna-
nimous, could liave deserted the grAafcause in which
he had so nobly embarked, and had supported witb
such dignified energy and perseverance. Prussia was
duly informed Of this insidious and violent conduct
on the part of I3oN PARTE, and hence, ! finding that
there was no. faith to be placed in such a man, at
length prepared to defend itself by the sword, fi-Orn
the farther encroachments of his artifice and his am-
bition.. The whole of the interesting article from
whiCh these remarks are deduced will be found in a
subsequent column.

WE are this day enabled to lay before our Readers
some further particulars respecting the loss of His
Majesty's Ship Constance. By a reference to the
Gazette of the loth ult. it will be seen that Captain
BURROWES (who commanded a small Squadron, un-
der the orders of Sir JAMES SAUMAREZ) had driven
a French Frigate, the Salamander, on shore near St. I.
Maloes. Captain Bun4oArEs was unable at that
time to destroy her, or to bring her off; but proposed
making the attempt as soon as the weather would
permit. The French Frigate, however, succeeded
afterwards in entering St. Maloes. She sailed from-
that Port on Sunday, when Captain BURRO TES,
with his little Squadion, again fell in with her. The
Salamander endeavOured to,get back to St.,Maloes,
but being closely pursued, she,took;shelter under the
guns'of a Fort
.on the Coast. A desperate adtion
immediately . commenced,
,which continued,
tween four- and five hours ; at length the S.q/a-
mander, though of much greater force than the Con-
stance, and supported by a very heavy fire from
the shore, was compelled to strike her Colours :
but she was so much damaged in the anion that she
sunk in coming, out the prisoners, however, were
all saved, and distributed among our Squadron. Un-
fortunately the' Constance, whichabad been severely
cut up in the unequal contest, became unmanage7
able, drifted on shore among the rocks, and was
wrecked. A part of the ci evi were, made prisoners,
but a considerable number of thein escaped on bOard
the Brigs. The gallant Captain BURROWES was, as,
we yesterday stated; killed in the glion, and we
feaf that our loss of men was very ' considerable. It
is stated that 'the number of killed and wounded
' amounts to very near seventy. The folloWing Let;
ters, containing an account of this anion, were writ-•

ten by the Gunner of the Constance.
" Ins Majesty's Sloop Sheldrake,.at' jersey,
i4th 06Iober, 1806. •
" SIR—I be leave to inform you, that on the milt inst.
we felt in with the Salamander, a French Frigate, and chaced
her under the Batteries, where we engaged her and the flat-
teries for three hotirs, when she struck to us. I am sorry to
inform you, that our Captain and a great many of our men
were. killed, and' a great number are wounded. Our Ship
was so much shattered, that she drove on shore, and was
taken possession of 'by the Enemy. We brought off the
French Frigate ; but she ,was so much cut' tip by our shot,,
that we were obliged (after taking out the Prisoners) to set
her on fire, and totally destroyed her. All my books were
lost with the Ship, except My certificates, which I happen-
ed to have in my pockets.

. " JOSEPH COOI)WIN,
" Late Gunner of H. M. S. Constance."

Another Letter from Jersey, dated 14th, adds the

following particulars :

" On the 12th inst. a Frigate, armed en flute, the same
which was drove on shore some time ago, came out of St.
blaloes.—After another -chace she was driven on shore under
a Fort. The three Ships, Constance, Strenuous, and Shel-
drake, under command of Captain BUR R OW ES, engaged her,
and after a severe conflia the French Ship struck. In at-
tempting to bring her out she sunk. The Constance struck
on 3 rock by parting her cables.—Capt.
,BURROW ES was
killed, and several of his crew killed and wounded. The first
and second French Captains were killed. Further loss not
known."

Governineni yesterday received Dispatches from
Mr. ELLIOT, at Palermo, and we are sorry to say that
they do not contain a confirmation of the reports
which haVe been so generally circulated, both in this
country and on the Continent, of the complete de-
feat of the French in Italy. The Dispatches, we
understand, are dated the 16th Ult. and at that time
it is not stated that any fresh disembarkation of the
english Troops had taken place in Calabria. There
is, however, every reason to believe that the French
Troops in Naples 'are in rather a preCarious situation :
Even the French Papers, anxious as they are to de-
scribe their armies as .being uniformly successful-,
sometimes inadvertently disclose the truth. We
were told, a few weeks ago, that the whole King-
dom of Naples was so
.completely subdued, tb.t
orders had been sent to stop the reinforcements that
were advancing from the Northern parts of Italy ;
but in the last Papers we received, we find great ex-
ultation expressed that a reinforcement of .16,000
men' had reached Naples;

Yesterday Lord' LAUDERDALE had an interview
with Lord Howicr, at the Foreign Office. He had
afterwards a con fen-nce with Lord OR stiylLLk at his
official house in gowning-street.
