BIRMINGHAM, APRIL 20.

YrSTERDAY, about. two•o'clock, four criminals
for forgery, and four' for burglary, were brought to
Washwood. Heath, near this,town, for execution
upon A temporary drop purposely ereaed. They
were escorted: to Stonebridge by Lord Aylesford's
Troop of Yeonlanry, and from thence to their place
of suffering by the Troop of Heneage Legge, Esq.
The drop was encircled by some troops of the King's
Dragoon Guards.
The unfortunate men,spent about two 'hours in
prayer,. and other preparations, when the_drop fell,
and they were launched into a -boundless eternity.
They all acknoWledged -their. crimes; but one
tEillvard-Allerk, for ,forgery), who denied to the
last having been guilty of the -act he suffereo for ;
but,aCknowledged others he had ben concerned in,
Of capital import.
After hanging the usual .time; they we're cut
down, and their bodies delivered to their friends.
This being a novel case, near this Town, the COn_
course of people attending was immense (We cannot
suppose less than 70,600). Every thing was very
quiet and peaceable, 'and we are gladto hear that
no serious accident happened. •

DEAR SIR,
For morc than two years I was affliaed with a

throbbing at heart, a nausea, and bile on the sto-
mach, 'a swimming and dizziness in-the.head. By
taking seven or eight boxes of your Pills, I am,
thank God, restored to a pure state of health.; and
have the happiness to-assurc.you I will, as a tribute
of gratitude to you, and a ,duty I owe to my fel-
lovii-subjeas, announce to my friends the singular
efficacy of your Pills. But,' Sir, lam convinced,
from the respedable manuscripts you produce, that
your reputation needs no-further eulogy, but you
are at liberty to use this humble tribute of truth
and gratitude as you shall think proper.
I am,. Dear Sir, your's truly,
WM. SWORDS.,
