Glo7re to inform you, that erer since the

winch, from itso hadtiult:teeelly' everytchoeurLsuee:terieel
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
dergoing severalsevere courses of 'salivation, and twice dis-
oharged front the Hospital with I title relief, would appear to
be of the mest inveterate nature. In ti.c spring of last year
my cisorder had " 01. to such a it cad, as nearly to put a period
to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,
on e en each aria, and my legs were. braise out in a frightful
manner; my right was dreadfully pa in Int, and had hero in a
state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also
two large nodes on it, was very nmeli discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in bed,
as n early to deprive me of rest •, ilia this lamentable state, I
was recommended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so
grent a cure by them here), to take your Leul,e's Patent Pills,
which I began to do on the Dith o. flay; in the course of a
fortnight I began to receive beneht—in little more than a
month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly heal,!—
soon after, the sores ors my legs healed also; leaving, how-
ever, considerable discolouratiou in the skin, and pain in the
boue of the left, which, by the blessing of God, an; us little
longer pet severance in your invaluable Medicine, sulosuled ;
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by
yo,:r liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free front all my
former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a nd
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which stole having
continued many'montbs, to the astonishment of all who knew
a.e, I am at a foss in what terms tw express my gratitude, but
laeg you, fir the good of other suffering mortals, to nuilie
this my case-as public as possible, as I shall on every occa-
sion ; so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very huinbleservant.

SIR J. PHILTAMORE AND MR. JAMES.

TO THE EDITOR.

MR. EDITOR.—Sir J. PHILLIMORE, on his ar-
rival in the Thetis frigate, from Mexico, a few days ago, was
shewn the account Mr. JAmEs had published respecting the
action of his Majesty's ships .Eurotas and Clarincie. On Friday
last Sir J. Yu ',Limo RE called on Mr. JAMES, accompanied by
a friend, for the purpose of contradicting the false statements con-
tained in the Book, as well as finding out his authority for them.
They were let into, the house by a servant, and invited to sit
down by Mr. JAMES, which they declined ; but Sir J. PHIL-
LIMORE gave his name and address, and proceeded to point
out the gross errors which occurred in the publication. Mr.
JAMES replied, that he was not to be bullied by Naval Offi-
cers, and subsequently told Sir J. PHILLIMORF. he was a liar,
which provocation was resented by several blows from his
walking-stick ; upon which Mr. JAMES repeated his abuse,
and called for constables. But Sir J. P., so far from running
away, (as has been stated), walked quietly to the carriage,
which was waiting at the end of the street, and even offered to
take Mr. JAMES with him ; such are the facts of this case.
Now, Sir, as to the statements in the work : —ls Mr. .1 ;:t Es
slanderously and maliciously to hand down to posterity state-
ments affecting the characters of zealous, active, and brave
Officers, which, in this instance, can and will be proved to be
false, both by Sir J. PHILLIMORE'S superiors in command,
as well as inferior officers immediately under him ? He slander-
ously tells the world that the crew of the Eurotas had not been
taught a few practical rules of gunnery, which is as direct a
falsehood as ever was printed. Again, his comparison of force
between the two ships was wrong.
Having said sufficient in this stage of the affair,
I have the honour to be, &c.
