lOHN, HILL'S UNIVERSAL 'REMEDY.
THESE great and eminent Physicians, by an in-
titnate and profound knowledge of Botanical Science,
concurred in predicting the possibility of discovering in the
vegetable wottct a remedy for almost every human malady.
That toe-. English t ',tot Drink, introduced by Dr. lesht
Webster into his Medical Prance, 3o tar back as 1745, and
since administered by himself with uniCorin SUCceS4 for 6a
years to Both sexes ?tidal' ages, is a discovery that approaches
nearer than arty other yet twine to this univeisa.- ch natter,
has aiter various and compicie experiments been acktiox..
'edged by the venerable Dr. Franklin, of inerica, ,by Ors,
Arlen and Sir R. lebb, of London; and by many °trier high
and distinguished names, both at home and abroad. Bet 1110
bet pra6tical test of truth is experience ;. and the iii;iny
thousands that have been cured, since its first ititi-..uktft:.:l
by, Dr: Webster, of every cleScriptioh of Fever, of 'Nervous
and Hypochondriac Complaints, of Sea and Land S'ciirry., of
Scrophula, of every species of, ltruption, which incli:ite im-
purity of Rood, of Consumptious„'kstlimas, Drops vS,
will be the most satistadlory evithnce of the ex traordiary
powers and astonishing efficacy of this Vegetable Medi-
cine. -

Those who wish -for Tore particular information on the
character and properties'of the English Diet Drill, and of
the nature and variety of the cures it has effeded, may con.:

HOUSE OF-PEERS'.

THURSDAY, APRIL 30.

In a Committee of Privileges; the farther consi-
deration of the claims of Sir Juries Innes Kerr,
B ironet, to the Roxburgh Peerages, was re-
sumed.—The Lord Advocate of Scotland attended
on the part of the Crown, and shortly addressed
their Lordships to the purport, that he had no
material obje&ion to. offer; and Sir S. Romilly,
who attended for the Claimant, declined troubling
their Lordships in consequence. The decision of
the Committee upon the case was postponed till
Tuesday.
The farther consideration of the claims to the
Both wick Peerage, was then called on, and Coun-
sel, &c. were shortly heard. To proceed again in
the Committee on Friday se'nnight.
The House then resumed, and their Lordships
proceeded to forward the Bills upon the table.—
Among these, the Irish Military Accounts, and Irish
Public Accounts Audit Bills, severally pssed through
Committees of the whole House, and were repotted
without amendment.
The Place and Pension Duty Bill was read a se-
cond time, and the Irish Tobacco Duty Regulation
Bill was read a third time and passed.
Their Lordships judgment in the Irish Appeal
Cause, Hort v. Gifford, Barts. was postponed
till to-morrow, after which an adjournment took
0 place.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.

THURSDAY, APRIL 30.

The ATTORNEY GENERAL, moved for leave to
bring in a Bill to alter and amend the 30th Geo. 11.
relatit)g t(i persons obtaining money under false pre-
tences, so as to extend to persons obtaining Bonds
and Btlls of Exchange.
Mr. HORNER postponed his intended motion on
the Petition from the Isle of Man, to Wednesday
next.

The Woolmer Forest Bill was read a third time
and passed.
The Scotch Custom's Superannuation Bill went
through a Committee, and the Report was ordered
to be. received to-morrow.

A message from the Lords signified their Lord-
ships agreement to the Irish Spirits Distillation
Bill.

In the Committee on the Duties on Copper, Mr.
ROSE moved an additional Duty on that article of
201. in every. It was agreed to, and the Rsport or-
dered to be received to-ntorrow.

Mr. RUSE brought in the Southern Whale Fishery
Bill, which was read a first time, and ordered to be
lead a second time to-morrow.

Mr. HORNER postponed his-intended motion rela-
tivo o M‘Matyon's appointment to Wednes-
day, the 13th of May.
The Scots Local Militia Bill went through a Com-
inn ee.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER postponed
his motion on Local Tokens to Monday next.

Mr. BROUGHAM moved f,r an account of the offi-
ci it value of Exports from Great Britain and the
Colonies to foreign Europe for the last ten years,
ending the sth of January, 1812, distinguishing
those to Spain, Portugal, and Sicily. He thought
that no inconvenience could result from the produc-
tion of these documents, as the Emperor of the
French must be already in possession of all the infor-
mrion they contained.
Mr. Rosa thought that serious inconvenience and
mischief might arise from agreeing to the motion,
for though the French Etnplror might know what
we were endeavouring to do, he did not know what
we had aaually done, as those pipers would ex-
plain to him. He therefore felt it his bounden
duty to objett to the accounts being laid before the
H ouse.

Mr. BARING confessed the force of the objec-
tirm stated by the Right tionontable Gentleman,
and therefore, though he much wished for the in-
formation, he thought the motion should not be

pressed.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was of
opinion that it would be unwise to enable Buona-
parte to see the progress and effeel of our measures
from year to year, in so detailed and particular a
manner as the Papers moved for would contain. At
present he only knew the general state of our trade,
but he did not know in what precise parts of the
Continent his policy had been successful, and where
v.ould_ be necessary to dire& his views wore—par-

kir_ularly. •
After a few observations from Mr. BROUGHAM
arcs Mr. ROSE, it was agreed that the motio❑ should
hr limited to the exports to Spain and Portugal, 'in
which form it was acceded, to by the House.

M.. WHITBREAD asked whether it was the intm-
tion of his Majllsty's Ministers to agree to the pro-
dugion of the American Papers, for which he in-
tcnqed to mu% e_ to-morrow
The CHANCELLOR Of the EXCHEQUER spoke in so
lOW a -TOiCe as to be almost completely inaudible in
the gallery; but from the rew words we could col-
let, we suppt>ed him to signify his intention of op-
posing the tnotion.'
The House then went into a Committee on the
Orders i.i Council and proceeded to the examination
of witnesses.

Five witnesses were then examined by• the Comt

miliee.

Shortly after ten o'cloc!‹, the examination of the
fifth witness being ended, Mr. BROUGHAM observed,
that from the time the Committee were occupied
on the preceding night in the examination of two
wilnt2sses, he had been led to irnagine that they could
not have time to examine a greater number t han had
already appeared before them, and in consequence,
no other Witnesses were then in attendance. It was,
therefore, necessary to adjourn, unless it was the
pleasnre of the Committee to wait till other wit-
nesiCts' could be sent for.

On this suggestion the Committee adjourned.—
The Chairman asked leave to sit again to-morrow
(this day), which was acceded ;to, with an 'under-
standing that the question respelling part of the Bar-
ratr: Estimates should first be disposed of.

The Minutes of the Evidence taken before the
!louse were ordered to be printed, and the House
adjourned.

LONDON,

FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1812.

Our Falmouth Letter states, that the Marian had
arrived there in eighteen days from Cadiz. She
brings an account that the French had partly broken
up their lines before Cadiz, and that it was hourly
expeaeld they would raise the seige. She also
brings a confirmation of the en,ry of BALLASTEROS
into Seville. We think it right to add, that no
official intelligence has reached Government upon
the subject.

An Anholt Mail arrived this morning, from which
we have made the following interesting extras, and
to which we can,only at present refer our Readers,
without offering any observations. Hostilities have
not commenced between Russia and Frances

STOCKHOLM, APRIL 20.—Orders have been sent
to the coast to give British ships in distress every as-
sistance they may require.
GOTHENBURG, APRIL 24.—The declaration of
hostilities by the Russians against France, mention-
ed in the English Newspapers, has not yet been re-
ceived here, nor has any movement of consequence
been made by the combined armies ; according to
the latest accounts, BUONAPARTE had not joined
them, but was soon expected.

APRIL 25.—Orders have been sent from Stock-
holm to Carlscrona, to equip the whole of the fleet.

The Swedish cruizers have a!ready sent into
Carlsham four French privateers, one of which car-
ried 18, and another 14 guns. The prisoners have
been sent to fortified places in the interior.

A coniipiracy has been discovered at St. Peters-
burgh, of an attempt to murder the Emperor ; the
ringleaders have been arrested.
NAPLES, MARCH 20.—Intelligence from Palermo
states, that Lord BENTINCK governs Sicily, and that
the Regency has but an appearance of power. The
partisans of the Queen have, by degrees, estranged
from all affairs, and some of them have been.dent to
England. Among the first is mentioned the Duke
of Ascou, who has been deprived of all his em-
ployments; and among the latter, Chevalier Louts
MEDICES, Minister of State.

HIS ROYAL MAJESTY'S SPEECH
TO THE ESTATES OF THE KINGDOM, IN TUE PAR•

LIAMENTARY CHAMBER, ON OPENING THE DIET

AT OREBRO, THE 20TH APRIL, 181'2.

" Honourable, Noble, and RespeEtable,. Wor-
thy, Learned, Instrueled and Well-beloved,
Worshipful and Trusty Good Gentlemen, and
swedishmen,
" The great concerns of our native country have
again called me to apply for your council, before the
time fixed by the forms. of Government for your
usual meeting is expired. Since I last saw you
assembled before my throne, several of the 46ts by
you passed, and whereon the safety and• welfare of
the kingdom were indubitably dependant, have been
put to the proof,-and their value proved by the les-
sons Of experience. If it is the lot of humanity to
join, with a warm desire; for what is right, the
possibility of erring, in the choice of the means to
effect it, it must be highly satisfactory both to you
and myself to be enabled timely to prevent such
misfortunes, which the pressure of the times have
brought forth, and which alone, by a longer con-
tinuance, might possibly have brought with them
deplorable circumstances for the interior Govern-
ment of the country.
" In the propositipns for amendment which will
now be laid before you, I am convinced, good Gen-
tlemen and Swedishtnen, that you will perceive I
have always acknowledged that secure reliance
which I ever have, and always shall remember, of
your sentiments towards me and the kingdom.
" I have called you together at a moment when
great and important occurrences, out of our na-
tive country, seem to threaten Europe with
new misfortunes. Guarded by her situation
from the forced obligation of paying obedience
to foreign sway, which possibly might not ac-
card wit') Lr own interests, Sweden has ev eiy
thing to hope from unity, valour, and conduct—
every thing to lose if she gives herself up to in-
testine divisions, and unwise fear. It is by the
bond of unity between me and you, by my son's
sword, rich in honour, by the valour of my youth
in arms, 'by the powerful will of the Swedish
people, that the prosperity of your laws, and the
honour of your liberties are secured. it is by the
high and valuable example of an undisturbed con-
fidence between the King and Subjects, by firm
and manly decisions in the midst of tempestuous
times, that the powers of Europe should be con-
viaced that the independence of S weden is not sole-

~~

jefended by the seas *hieh surround her 66aitd.
At such a decisive moment for proving the general
sentitnents, wht,n it may be probable that fordign
calculations have been Made with intent to destroy
my exertions arid yours, I ought to endeavour to
shake off every thing that might have 'effe6l on
the freedom of your deliberations. Different causes
of great moment confirmed me in the resolution
of transferring the Extraordinary Meeting of the
Diet, which was to have been holden at Steel-
holm, to this place. If the situation of doubt and
suspense, which about two years since was Cle
chief occasion of taking a similar step on my side,.it
has now given a greater space for steady order, and
that the loyalty and attachment winch the respea-
able citizens of &ockholm have at all times, as
well as in the before- oientioned circumstances,,
shown for the King and laws, an attachment which,
with equal'pleasure and troll) I find myself obliged
to gibe the inhabitants of my capitai, I neverthe-
less fell assured that every unprejudiced man, only
by referring to the circa ,)stances of the time, witl
perceive the reasons that have given cause for re-
moving the Seat of the Diet, and• find their sole
intention to be the security and dispatch of ho
ness by the Estates of the Kingdom.
" It now remains with you, nay good Lords and
Swedishmen, to deciJe on my reasonable expec-
tations to reward the labours of the Prince, who
being equally near to my heart as the throne, guided
the concerns of the country during the period when
my infirm state of -health would not permit of my
participating in them—who then, with powerful
hand, knew how to restore order and tranquility at
home, recal the erring mind, awaken the slumber-
ing national spirit, put life and motion into the ge-
neral business of the State, confidence and hope into
the hearts of his fellow-citizens who restored into
my hands a kingdom peaceful and respeaed, warm
only for my honour, and that of his foster-country,
to which he always attached his own; who has laid
on me and you the joint and sacred obligation of not
deceiving his noble hopes, to take from him !he great
example of self-denial, and that power of mind
which is superior to dangers.

My good Lords and Swedishmen, I judge of
the feelings which fill your hearts by those I myself
am possessed with at this solemn hour ;, you should
be guided by the same warm love for your native
country as that which has always filled your aged
King in times of peace ; and in the vicissitudes and
destruction of warfare, you will shew yourselves
worthy of the support given you, and the king-
dom, by a guardian Providence in the noble Prince
who stands by my side ; you will follow his steps,
and attend to his voice, for his sole objeet is your
honour and your liberty ; you will put aside from
your Councils all party passions, all party inclina-
tions, as incompatible with the general demands of
the State; you will circumscribe-- your ambi-
tion, and think of power within the common
boundaries of determination to live and die like
Swedish men. It is only by such a mode of think-
ing, that Sweden, resting in security on the valour
of her sons, cheered with the honourable prudence of
my son, can, from the height Of her independent
mountains, with undisturbed-serenity, view the de-
struation without her borders, tranquility and liberty,
in her own bosom. Let this inestimable privilege be
the ultimate end in view for our endeavours. The
people of Sweden have their eyes fixed on. me and
you ; they shall not be deceived in their reasonable ex-
peaatioris by a Kin, who never hesitated to offer for
his country both thes pleasures of quidt lite and a har-
bour already gained after troubles sustained. This,
my solemn promise, which contains my fixed de-
termination of going hand in hand with my son, •in
defiance of hostile threats from without, and possibly
of opinions at home, to retain the liberty and
independence of this ancient realm, lays yod, my
good Lords and Swedish men, under a like obligation
of contributing willingly and unanimously to the
same object, and under an eternal responsibility, if
you do not follow the calls which are made on you
by the honour of the Swedish name, by the me-
mory of your forefathers, by the freedom of your
sons, arid by the voice of yo,ir King. I remain
graciously and affearonattly to you, my good Lords
and Swedish men, jointly to all and to each, and
every one especially, with all royal grace and fa-
vour."

Then follows the Address of the CROWN PaiNcy.
to the Knighis and Nobility, to the Clergy, and to
the Burghers. We have only room at present for
the following extratl, addiessed'to the latter clas•,
which, if sincere, will throw a strong light upon
the views and intentions of the Swedish Govern-
ment.
