MANCHESTtR, NOV. 24.

In the Court of King's Bench last week, a hear-
ing came on of the cause respefting an Occupation
Road, betwixt Mr. A. Rhodes, merchant, and Miss
Silly, both of Leeds, which was tried at the last
York Assizes before Judge Chambre ; when a New
Trial was moved for by the Defendant, which was
refused, as well as the application for a Rule to
shew cause ; it being the unanimous opinion of the
Court, as was determined at the above Assizes,
" that an ,Occupation• Road was absolutely a Road
for all purposes."'

this neighbourhood, of nodurnal depredations hav-

repetition ofsuch villanous attempts.

F.XTRACT OF A LETTER TO DR: aARDNER, OF LONC-ACRE.

Sir, I am happy to inform you of the goodefr;cts y,our Pills
have had, in restoring me front the severe pains I have • labour,
ed under for so many years. I shall give- you as brief an ac-
count as I can : For 14 years I was grievously afflicted with
the head-ach, two, three, or tour days in the week—half the
time obliged to lie imbed, and very it iat every change of the
weather, ttre, -and the'three 'last years had such paws in the
back anSkidnies that I could not stand up without great. un-
easiness; this. die doaors called the gravel, but could get
nothing to cure or seldom relieve. But what crowned my
grief was, that, in the end of the year 1797, I was seized with
a violent complaint from my hip to my allele, called the
Sciatica, that rendeted me
,unahle to: business by day, and
took away my rest by night, so that I soon roust have_ died,
had not taken yout Pills, a box of which cured me eighteen
Months ago, without any return. thank God. You are wel-
come to publish this, by every meAns,-fur tlte sake 'of those
who are suffering,.
And remain-yours, &c. \VM. COOPER.
