IBl{(i leave to ihfi)ri»-you,, that ever's-ince the
year 1790, I had "been -afflicted' with the Lue-S Venerea ;
which, from ibs obstinately resisting e:ery colme of medicine
prescribed by:the most eminent Of thelaculty.bere, and un-
dergoing several- severe Courses of saliVation, and twice -dis-
tharge4 front the Hospital with little relief, would appear to
lie of. the most inveterate nature. In the spring of. last year
toy disorder,had got to such a,head,- as nearly to put a period
to- my existence—l had 'a large ilcer on the crown of my brad, -
°ins 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 lart4e-.4,cles on it, was very touch discoloured, and gave'
toe such excruciating' pain, particularly when warm in lied,
as nearly to deprive the of rest;' in this lamentable state, I
was reeplillllCild,tl by "Mr. J. Thompson;- (who 'received. so
great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
whieh I began to do on the 26th of May ; in- the course of a
fortnight I began to- receixe benefit—in little moire than a
mouth the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed—
soon after, the sores on my legs' healed also ; leaviitg; how-
ever, considerabhAiseol4uration in the skin; and pain in the
bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God', and a little
longer-perseverance in your invaluable Nledicihe,' subsided ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
tionoeturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
}'our liberel advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
former Complaints—bare ucovered my former spirits and
strength, and am become jolly'andlat, 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'l shall 'on every occa-
sion; in so doing you will greatly-oblige' ,

.A tiliP'TO PAM S.

(No: VHS)

MR. tD !TOR)
At Moniteuil, I visited the Church, the first I had
teen in a Catholic
,country. There are One or two
good paintings, and a figure of the Virgin and
aesUS Christ in wax, adorned with gaudy_fiowers
And ribbows What devotional eilicey theappear-
2eee of these images may have in France, I shall
not pretend to say. In the grand cathedrals of Ca-
iholicisin, there may be, in the admirable pictures
antl the exquisite workmanship upon the altar,
,&c. some reason found for the argument, that these
visible representations of Divinity bring home the
feeling of adoration ;to the minds of the illite-
rate ; but the paultry and grotesque productions.
wide!' are more generally to be found in lower
Churches, are surely only calculated to create
a ludicrous sensation toward 3 every thing .sa-
cred,. so absurdly represented. If the • grau-
'deur of the •Catholic ceremonies are sublime,
:elevating, and imposing, when conducted on a
superb scale, they are no less trifling, ,ridi-
-culous, and injurious to religion, when performed
in a less magnificent manner.
Here I also visited the Citadel, t7t building en
tire',-; in ruins. About twenty of the National
Guard, resembling the oldest of. the old watch:
men in London, were in charge of this impoc44
fortification. There were about 3000 of the' 04#

lied troops cantoned Montreuil and the,o‘
lages round about ! !
From Montreuil to -Nampont, " une pile et
demi." There were plenty of living asses upon
ti.e road; I only looked with My.raind's eye for
the dead one. Not so, however, one of the com-
panimis picked up at Calais, and again at Mon-
He was an intolerant admirer Of STrINE,
and an intolerable speaker of French. Prompted
by- a most abundant sentimental feeling, and
blessed with very niggardly means to give it vent,
he had begun by inquiring at Montreui! " le mort
tine, ou demeure t'il P" and this question was re-
peated on every opportunity on the road to, and.
at Nampont. The persons to -whom he addressed
himself received the interrogation with much sang
froid, as Frenchmen generally do : some of them
attempted explanation, others shrUgged up their
shoulders,. and exclaimed, Monsieur! and others,
again, confessed that they ditl not know where
the dead ass lived. This *hews what a puzzle the
.ricir.srtlou embrftecrt j for it is rcry seldoril that this
polite people allow that they are ignorant your
meaning. On the contrary, though they do not
Comprehend one word you utter, they glibly an-
swer, " Oui, Monsieur ;" and go on to gabble
something or other, n'emporte, so yiick, that no
French, and far less any. unaccustomed cy -gm]; can
understand one syllable they emit.
The inflexions of the word " Monsieur" have
also a curious abundance. Pronounced ia twenty
dissimilar tones and ways, it has twenty different

signitications. It is an affirmative, a negative, an
interjection , _ an expression of doubt, fear, ad-
miration, want of comprehension ; an interroga-
tion, a simple assent, an e4uivogne, a compli-
ment it is, in short, a language in one word.
From Naniporet to Nourion we were treated
with- a variety of postillions, viz, one with bare
legs,' instead of the mighty boots, so universally

sported by his comrades. He did not, however,

seem to drive one whit the worse or the better.
From Nourion to Abbeville is about nine miles;
and here: we arrived at the close of the day.
Abbeville is:a large and apparently an interesting
place for the traVeller to stop at and examine; but
as a report prevailed that all the post-horses on
:this road were on the eve of being laid under re-
quisition, for the conveyance of Lours XVIII. to
Paris, I thought it better to take a view of Abbe-
ville on returning, than to stop now, with a risk
of
...being embargoed longer than curiosity re-
quired. From Abbeville to Paris, by Anyliens, is
'about two-posts more thadthe route by Beauvais;
but it is represented as being more certain, and
• better worth travelling. During night, the latter
point seemed to possess little weight in leading to
a determination, and, to obviate any difficulties
which might arise on the former with respect to
finding relays of horses, it was easy Co send 'on
art avant-courier—which course we adopted. :This
person is paid 30 sous per post for him self, and 30
sous more for his horse.

Procet'ding in this way during the nightote roach-
ed. to breakfast on Friday Morning the
2211, a distance of I I posts. We found no trouble

in changing horses 'Toil the road: The. gates at
Abbeville were shut, but were opened to us aft e r

an interrogatot•y as to whether we were charged
with dispatches from the Government.
The inedieient state of the Cabriolets I have
already noticed ; but it is only in night travelling

that their (tercets are most severely kit. Under
your feet is a seam quite across the vehicle (where

the loWet front' shuts up aitet you get in)
through which a Arc current of cold air rushes in
to refresh your limbs ; tho front windonis ‘vhich,
froM its accommodating-, itself toAlle miffed' shape
of the Machine, is tiecessarilp rickety, admits an
etlual portion of the weather to your upper extre-
mities ; and, lest all this should not he sufficient
to keep you cool, the little hales for light on' each
side, and, most probably, theirfellow in the rear,.
Pour in a more modified measure of the atmos-
phere, after the fashion of alternate bellows. From
these sources of .delight playing upon us asleep
and awake, I fourld, in the Morning, my legs so
perfectly invaded with rheumatism as to be scarcely
able to move ; and the head of my companion,
which had been exposed to an inlet wider than the
rest, was swelled to thal degree, that he scomed•to.
have got a friar's cowl over his uatural fell of
hair."

Every Englishman who visits France ought, if
possible, to bring a convenient carriage with him.
The trouble -of embarking and 4lisembarking• it
will soon be amply compensated .by comfort in

travelling

harnem too is well suited to the-vehicle.;

and it is, true, that you cannot, go on a single
stage, without having some alterations to make,
or something to nicurl, in this respect., One horse
is yoked in the carriage, which ht structure re-
-
senibles a cart, and is not built, as with us,- with
a pole ; a couple of ropes, passing frrim-a broad
leather breast-plate, connects it with the cabriolet.
The other horse, that which is ridden by tho drive ;•
is almost distinct from draught ; it is, however, -
also tied to one side of the cabriolet by two ropes;
and another rope, from the-t,;ead of the working
hcirse, held by the postillion, serves him to lead,
rather than to draw, the chafe along.

Of the inducements held out to induce the
Voyageur to rest at Beauvais, the, following caril
will give you a notion of the charge of a gooil
breakfast a la
~fourchette, for four; the particulars
also follow :

" HOTEL DE L'ECTJ, rll3.ea,nrais, Route de Paris, Amiens,

FRENCH • PIPERS:

[ARRIVED THIS MOfIX(NG.]

PARIS, MAY 1.---The King will arrive 'to-mor-
row, Monday, at St. Owen, and will receive there,
at 7. o'clock in the evening, the Deputations from
the different Bodies of the State. He will sleep
there, and on the next day, Tuesday, he will set
off at six o'clock in the morning", to make his entry

•
into Paris.
The Marshals of France having gone to Com-
peigne to od:er their homage to the King, they
were introdueed to leis Majesty, and addressed
him in the following terms :

" SIRE,---After twenty-five years of uncertainty
and of fstornis, the people of France have again
confided the care of their hhppiuess to that
Dynasty, which -eight centuries of glory have
consecrated in the history of. the world as the
most ancient that ever existed. The Marshals of
France, as warriors and as citizens, have been
induced, by every feeling of their hearts, to sup-.
.
port this manifestation of the nrional will. En-
tire ccmfidence for the future, admiration for
greatness of soli A) mNfortunei, even ancient reL
collections, contribute to excite in the breasts of
our warriors (the constant supporters of the glory
of the French arms) - these transports which your
Majesty has seen break forth upon your journey.
The accents of their gratitude, Sire, have already
preceded you.- How is it possible to express the
emotion with which they were penetrated, when
they learnt with what affecting interest your Ma-
jesty, forgetting your own misfortunes, for.a long
time thought only of those of the French Sol-
diers ? 'lit is of no -importance,' said your Ma-
jesty to the magnallimous Alexander, ' one litru.L
• dyed and fifty thousand prisoners have fought ;
• they are. unfortunate ; I behold among them
' only 'my , children.' In these memorable
words, which were repeated from soldier to
soldier, what Frenchman does not recognize the
blood of the Great Henry, who fed the :inhivhi-
,
tants of Paris while he was
,besieging the city ?
Like him, his Illtwrions descendant comes, to ueite
all France into one great Gamily. Your armies,
Sire, of ivhom the Marshals are this day the or-
gan, will be'happy to be called by your Majesty
to second your generous efforts."

The King repliel with the most affecting- good-
ness, that he received with pleatsure the Marthal3

of Vrande, Anil he relied Upon
thost expiTesionsiof love and fidelity tvhi:ll they
er.pressed in the name of the A,1441.eS (4. France„,
The l';:ing then caused all the'Alarshmis of Prance
to be natned Havio; n;polien to them in the
nit?St graciotzs
.thantier, he then, not will,staria-
lug hiS gout, arose j Owe of his.great Officers
,ran to assist him, but his i‘lajest took hold of the
arms of the two Alarsinils who were rtettrust to hiM,
and said, " It is upon you, that I shall
always support myself : carne round me, you have
ahvays been good Frenchtnen ; 1 trust Prance
.will 110 more have occasion for your Swords.
But if. ever, which God forbid, we' should be
forced to draw it; gouty as I aria, I will march
tyi-th you." •

• " Sire (replied the' Marshals), ydur 11a-
jesty always consider us as tist,.. Pilla'rs or your
Throne-7we will always be its most firm sup-

Port."

The- latest intelligence Irmo the frontiers of
Norway confirm the account, that the disturb-

ances which occurred there avc not yet tranquil-
lized. This news haS hastened thedeparriire of
the Crown Prince, rho left Paris the evening of
the clay before yesterday, direct
.Cor Stockholm.'
His Royal Highness had proposed to wait upon
the
.King .at Cornpeigne, having beenalrearly an-
nounced there by Marsh:4ow Count de Storlinfz,
whom his Royal Highness• had scut tc compli-
ment his Majesty.. _
