To T. TAYLOR, Esq.
No. 9, New Bridge-street, London.
HONOURED SIR,
IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal,
which, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine
presoribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis-
charged from the Hospital with little relief, -would appear to
be of tke most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my disorder had got to such a head, as nearly to put a period
to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful
manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a
state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also
two large nodes on it, was very much discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed,
as nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so
great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which I began to do on the 26th o. May ; in the course of a
fortnight I began to receive benetit—in little more than a
month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed—
soon after, the sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how-
ever, considerable discolouration in the skin, and pain in the
bone of the left, which, by the blessing 9f God, and -a little
longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a lid
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which state having
continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew
me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but
beg you, for the good of .other suffering mortals, to make
this my case as public as possible, as I shall, on every occa-
sion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servaMURKERnt,
ALEX. .

The Second Report of the Select Committee
on the Holyhead Roads has been printed. It treats exclusively
of steam packets. It states that there is no doubt of the prac-
ticability of performing the Post Office service at Holyhead by
steam vessels as safely as by sailing vessels, and in less than
half the average time, and therefore recommends a third
steam packet, upon the same general plan of construction as
that of the present steam packets, the Meteor and Royal So-
vereign, which were built in the River Thames by order of the
Postmasters General.

We have learned that there is a prospect of discovering the
individuals who were concerned in raising the late fires in the
neighbourhood of Haddington,' and are happy to understand
that no suspicion attaches to any person immediately connected
with the district. The County met on the 17th instant, and
adopted energetic measures for discovering and bringing to
punishment the perpetrators of these acts.—(Edinburgh eOl4-
