;MR. A. JONES, Surgeon Dentist to
their Royal Highnesses the Princess Augusta,
the Duchess of Gloucester, his Msjesty Louis-Philippe
the First, and Royal Family of France, and her Serene
Highness the Princess Esterhazy, having in several
recent cases been highly successful in rectifying De-
fective Articulation, by the substitution of his im-
proved TERRO-METALLIC TEETH for those which
had been decayed, or been subjected to removal, re-
spectfully invites the particular attention of gentlemen
engsged in Parliamentary, Clerical, and other duties
connected with Public Speaking, to the importanoe and
utility of the above-named unrivalled remedy. The
TERRO METALLIC TEETH (which may be had from
one to a complete set) will be guaranteed to restore to the
wearer all the advantages of the genuine ones, in mastica-
tion as well as articulation, and cannot in any way be dis-
tinguished from the originals. Carious and tender Teeth
wholly preserved from the progress of decay, and rendered
useful, by Mr. A. Jones's unequalled ANODYNE CE-
MENT. The personal attention of Members of the
Faculty to those much approved inventions, and their
males of application by Mr. A. J., is respectfully re-
quested and would be greatly esteemed.

BRITESH COLLEGE OF HEALTH,
KING'S CROSS, NEW-ROAD, LONDON.
MORISON'S UNIVERSAL VEGETABLE MEDICINE.
TO THE GENTLEMEN (NOT THE MEDICAL MEN) OF THE
BOARD OF HEALTH, CARLISLE.
GENTLEMEN,—I deem it a duty I owe to you, to the
public, and myself, to make a few statements on the pro-
ceedings of the medical men, sanctioned by the Board of
Health, with respect to myself; and I beg to state, that I
am far from attaching any blame to the Gentlemen (not
professional) of that Board. The number of medical men
on the board—the prejudices (natural to every one) in fa-
vour of old-established theories,—the awful nature of the
present crisis,—and your want of acquaintance with the
Hygeian System,—are sufficient, in the estimation of any
reasoning mind, to exonerate you. It rests with me, how-
ever, to do my utmost to disabuse your minds, and those
of the public; and Permit me, first,
as firmly convinced to say that were I not
in my own mind as that I exist, that
the Vegetable Universal Medicine will in all cases prevent
and cure when taken in time, I would not—however my
personal interest might run—l dared not—hold out the
least hope to any one that would lead them to try it. He
"• - Who would I should consider as a trafficker in human
blood.
I must (having thus premised) state, that I have
been represented to you by the medical men as the vender
of a quack medicine. This I deny. lam an agent for
Mr. Morison, the disccvarer of the Vegetable Universal Me-
dicine, and am as independent in my profession as any me-
dical man in Carlisle is in his, and as far as character goes
fully as respectable. The Doctors ere long may find me
as well supported.
The charge on which I was convicted is, that I visited
Cholera patients, administered medicine, and advised them
not to take medicine from the Doctors. This is true ;
and I did it from principle. I visited all who sent for
lne, and administered to them, and very naturally advised
them to take no Doctors' medicine. How could I know i
the effects of another man's medicine ? I knew, and was
confident in the Vegetable Universal Medicine. Of this
great crime I was convicted ; or in other words, I was
convicted of, and fined for, curing persons of the Cholera ;
and, I am bold to say, that I have not yet taken a case of
Cholera in hand, when the Doctors have not been allowed
to interfere, but I have cured, besides hundreds who have
been prevented taking it by the use of the Vegetable Uni-
versal Medicine.
I fear, Gentlemen, my remarks may be rather long,
but I cannot pass over the manner of this prosecution
without a word. The ill-success of the medical men in
- cases of Cholera had prejudiced the minds of the people, so
that they refused to submit to their treatment ; but life is
sweet; they heard that I was curing, and I was called on
on all hands. In a few days I published ten cures. (How
mortifying to Doctors to be beaten by a man who had never
been at College !) Something must. be done to stop me.
A person was set to watch if I charged any thing. (Let
the Apothecary deny that !) This failed ; profit was not
my object. Then a trap must be laid. Complaint was
made to the Board of Health. The Secretary was directed
to command me to make my returns as a practitioner.
Then I should be liable to a heavy penalty ; this failed
also : I was male of the law. At length comes a des-
perate effort. —The Ilygeist is taken in the act of attend-
ing a Cholera patient; no less than three medical practi-
tioners come to witness the atrocious act. "We have
halos now ! The patient will not take our medicine. He
roust have advised her not to Flo so." A summons was sent,
and I was convicted of the atrocious act of trying to cure
a patient of the Cholera ! !ts Gentlemen, can you tell use
under what act I was condemned ? It was certainly a
stretch of law, but I can appeal to the sessions. Such has
been the prosecution.
I shall now merely inform you that the Hygeian Theory
and Medical men's practice are totally at variance. The
Doctors may continue their prosecutions—it is natural
they should ; for I can assure them the Hygeist contem-
Platea nothing less than making every man his own Doctor.
The Hygeian Theory, like other improvements, has for
years been gradually progressing; arid the Doctors, like
f`uacks, will find as the public mind becomes enlightened,
that the Hygeists are no contemptible body.
Yours, &e.

DR. SOLOMON'S celebrated CORDIAL
BALM OF GILEAD, from its superior efficacy
in a variety of painful and dangerous Complaints incident
to the Stomach and Bowels, may, without hesitation , be

This renovating Medicine also affords wonderful relief
in all inward decays, lowness of spirits, relaxation in either
sex, whether hereditary or owing to youthful impru•-
dencies. In seminal weaknesses, tabes dorsalis, or nervous
consumptions, its merit is unrivalled, invigorating the de-
cayed juices, and throwing a genial warmth upon the de-
bilitated and relaxed parts that stand in need of assistance.

HORRIBLE MURDER.—On Saturday a most
dreadful outrage against humanity was committed at
liorncliff, not far from Berwick, which has struck the
whole district with horror and amazement. Two lads, of
the names of PAXTON and PERC v, had had a dispute about
a gamecock, which led to frequent quarrels, and on the
day above mentioned, they again came to high words, and,
it is said, eventually to blows. Whilst this was going on,
PEacY's father, an old man, procures a large knife, and
deliberately attacking his son's opponent, stabbed him in
the belly, cutting him across, so that his bowels, as he
fell, protruded on the ground. Not content with this
dreadful deed, he turned upon Parrox's brother, another
young man who came up to assist, and stabbed him in
several places ! The first victim lingered till Sunday
morning, in great agony, when death relieved him from
his sufferings ; the other young man still survives, but in a
hopeless state. The old monster retired to a corn field,
and cut his own throat, but not effectually, as he was
found bleeding shortly after, and the wound having been
attended to, he is likely to survive to stand his trial for
these horrid crimes —Caledonian Mercury.
A letter of the 6th inst. from Saint Girons,
states that the Gardes Forestiers having seized 200 head
of cattle, found pasturingin the forests in that district,
different bodies of the peasantry, disguised en demoiselles,
forming to the amount altogether of 700 or 800, assem-
bled, armed with guns, hatchets, scythes, and every species
of offensive weapon. One piny'' of about 70, attacked a
detachment of the Guards, and a combat ensued, in which
one of the assailants was killed, and several wounded, upon
which the rest fled...Galignani's Memnon..

The two following accounts are taken from the Liver-
pool Chronicle, and would seem to intimate a greater de-
gree of organization amongst the robbers than is consistent•
with proper vigilance on the part of the magistracy.—A
young gentleman from the country arrived in the early
part of last week on his way to the Isle of Man, and when
walking down to the dock, on Wednesday morning, was
accosted by a man in a sailor's dress. This man was
joined by another, and the two proposed to show him
the docks and the Black Rock Lighthouse. They had
some refreshment at the young man's expense, and then
crossed the river, and after spending the day i❑ Che-
shire, returned in the evening, and all three went to the
play. On Thursday morning this young man was
again joined by the same men, who proposed another
trip over the water; he assented, and they went to Birken-
head, and regaled themselves with the stores laid in for
the Isle of. Man. They proceeded to Bideton, and after
showing him the telegraph, went on to Leasowe Castle,
where they had more refreshment at bis expense. Here
they tarried till dusk, and then set out on their return
for Liverpool by the shore. When they had proceeded
about a mile, one of them asked him if he had money
enough to pay his passage to America. He now, for the
first time, telt alarmed, and said he would go back to the
Castle. Finding him obstinate, one of the men collared
him, while the other beat him violently on the head and
back with a heavy stick. The young man then drew
from his pocket a pistol (not loaded), thinking to intimi-
date them, but the taller man seized the pistol and tore it
from his grasp ; the young man then took some money
from his pocket, which he threw down upon the sand, at
the same time giving them his pocket-book, containing two
51. bank notes, saying, " there is all the money I have,
take it, but spare my life." They then desisted from
abusing him, and walked on together till they had
passed Mr. Wathurton's, when the young man heard
a whistle in the plantations. They now began drag.
ging him to the water-side, where a boat was moored,
beating him, and trying to stop his mouth while he
was screaming and calling " murder ! murder ! they
are killing me !" His cries were heard by a woman who
lives in a delf by the shore, and she came out and called
" What are you doing?" On finding they were observed,
they again proceeded along the shore till they reached
Norcliffe's Marine Hotel, at Liseard, where, observing a
light, the young man rushed past the ruffians and dashed
his foot through the kitchen window. Mr. Norcliffe, to-
gether with three gentlemen who were in the bar, ran out
of the house, where they found all three together ; the
young man was in such a state of agitation that he was
not able to speak for some time. On stripping him, his
body was half covered with bruises; there was a severe
cut on his head, and a lump over one eye; his right arm
was also much bruised from warding off the blows. The
men were given in charge to a constable, and conveyed
the next morning before Archdeacon Clarke, when the
depositions of the young man and the gentlemen who ac-
companied him were taken, and the men were committed
to Chester Castle to take their trials at the next Assizes
for felony. These men were runners about the docks and
coaches, and well known to the police.
On Tuesday evening, about twelve o'clock, when a man
was returning home with his cart from Wigan, where he
had been with a load of produce, he was stopped by three
men, named James Wignall, James Abraham, and Henry
Dutton, in the township of Scarisbrick, and robbed by
them. They were apprehended the next day, as also a
man named Lunt, who keeps a ferry shop, as a receiver of
part of the stolen property, and fully committed, with the
other three, for trial at the assizes at Lancaster. One of
the prisoners has turned King's evidence, and disclosed the
particulars of most of the robberies that have been com-
mitted in that neighbourhood for some time. We be-
lieve the gang consists of from twenty to thirty indi-
viduals.

THE MOORS.—Grouse shooting commenced
this year under two disadvantages to the sportsman; it
commenced a day later than usual, and that day was the
only indifferent one among many fine days. The weather
we understand, was most unpropitious in the heart of the
Highlands ; upon the Braes the d iy cleared up about noon,
and the sport amply repaid the delay. On the fine muir
of Glenquaich one gentleman bagged fifty-three brace of
grouse, another bagged forty-two brace on the Logical-
mond hills, and a third bagged twenty-two brace on the
same ground. We hear, also, that sportsmen in the
neighbouring hills have had the same good luck. The
principal shooting quarters in this neighbourhood are this
season occupied as follows:—Mount Alexander, Earl of
Mexborough; Glaschorie, Mr. Aspinail and party ; Ed-
ington Lodge, Mr. W. Atkinson and party; Bonskeid,

EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.--On
Tuesday, the 9th instant, as six of the reapers employed
by THOMAS HucHrs, Esq., near Grosmont, in this
county, were reaping, they found themselves suddenly
covered with swarms of insects, very like the common small
ant, but with wings. They became so troublesome that they
took their clothes off for the purpose of shaking them off,
but they could not get rid of them ; as whenever they
settled, the animalcula never attempted to fly again. Im-
mediately after all the men were attacked with violent
sickness and diarh wa, and were obliged to discontinue
working. Four of them recovered with the assistance of
some medicine, administered by their master, and were
enabled to work acain the following day - the other two,
who were more violently affected, had medical advice, but
did not recover for three or four days, sufficiently to work.
The men had eaten nothing but good plain food. Mr.
HUGHES, who was with his reapers at the time, but did
not then feel unwell, during the night had himself a slight
attack of the same nature.—[The correspondent who has
favoured us with the above singular fact, on the accuracy
of whose statement we have complete reliance, mentions
that a species of fly, before unknown, has appeared in
many places visited by cholera.—En.]-111onniouthshire

LIE ENGLISH AND FRENCH VOLUN-
TEERS IN PORTUGAL. —We have seen a letter from a
young French Ensign, now serving with the army of Don
PEDRO, which, after d.tscribiog the events of the battle of
the 23d ult., already known to our readers, speaks in
terms of the highest eulogy of the gallantry of the English
detachment, who, on this occasion, were united with the
French. The writer expresses the gratification he felt at
the novel sight of troops belonging to two nations so long
accustomed to meet only in mortal conflict, combined and
fighting side by side under the s ime banner, in the same
noble cause, and under the command of an Englishman
(Col. HODGES), whose conduct he describes as beyond all
praise. The Colonel is a first-rate favourite among the
French soldiers; they say of him—" Le Colonel Anglais
est no brave soldat ; it y a du plaisir a se battre sous les
ordres d'un lapin comine celui-la." The French and En-
glish bivouacked together on the position from whence
they had driven the Miguelites on the night of the 23,1,
and the pleasantries of the French upon their new coin-
pa.nions in arms, whom they playfully
call '° Goddani"
and " Rosbi f," were the never-failing signals for friendly
and prolonged hilarity. The interment of an English
officer, mortal y wounded during the battle, and carried
off the field, was attended by both the French detachment,
and that of his countrymen, to the English chapel at
Oporto. The writer likewise mentions Captains SHAW
and STANTON, and Dr. TOPPER, of the English battalion,
in terms of high commendation. lie adds, " the anni-
versary of the Three Days has been kept with due honour,
high mass having been performed in the presence of the
Eatt-xßoa and all his staff, and a deputation from every
corps in the army." General LAFAYETTE has received a
letter from Don PEDRO, congratulating him on the brave
conduct of Al. JULES DE LASTEVRIE, his grandson, at the
battle of Vallonga.—French Paper.

At these sessions, witTCh commenced yesterday,
the CHAIRMAN (Mr. Hedger), in the course of his
charge to the Grand Jury, observed, that although,
from the lightness of the calendar, it was probable
that their services would not be required after that
day for the usual routine of business, yet, as the
annual scene of revelry and confusion had commenced
at Camberwell, and as cases of assault and robbery
were not at all unfrequent there, it would benefit
the county materially if they did not break up until
the fair bad concluded. By their compliance with
this suggestion, if prisoners were apprehended at
Camberwell fair, true bills could be at once found,
which would save the county a serious expense.
The Chairman also adverted to the subject of the
cholera, which, he said, had committed great ravages
in some portions of that district.
Thomas IVildagow was indicted for stealing a
pair of lady's shoes, the property of Mr. Peckham,
one of the pages to the King.
The prisoner was found Guilty, but upon the
intercession of the prosecutor, who recommended
him to mercy, on the ground of his having been im-
prisoned since the sth of June, and the trifling value
of the property he was charged with stealing,
The CHAIRMAN sentenced him to be imprisoned
for 14 days to hard labour in the House of Correction.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION HOUSE.

Yesterday considerable interest was excited by
the decision upon a case of some importance, which
was postponed from a former day.
Messrs. Parkinson and Frodsham, the chrono-
meter makers, 'Change-alley, summoned a young
man, named Sheppard, under the 4th of Geo. 111.,
which inflicts a penalty upon any artifice, handi-
craftsman, or other, who shall violate any contract
entered into between him and any other person to
serve for any time or times whatsoever. The de-
fendant had contracted at full age to serve the com-
plainant for seven years, but having acquired a
knowledge of the trade in two, he quitted the em-
ployment without ceremony.
Mr. Adolphus stated, that the complainants were
in the habit of engaging young men upon the terms
specified in the contract. In this case the defendant
had availed himself of the admirable tuition which
the establishment afforded, and as soon as his services
became profitable, thought himself justified in quit-
ting his master. The statute appeared to have been
made for just such persons.
Mr. Harmer, for the defendant, said, that the
statute never contemplated a second apprenticeship.
It merely meant service for a reasonable time, and
surely seven years in addition to the seven already
served by the workman, could not be called reason-
able. If the binding was for life, could that hold ?
How, then, could the binding for seven years? He
thought three years a reasonable period, and to that
his client was ready to subscribe.
Mr. Adolphus said, that if the contract was for
life, the contracting parties were bound to abide by
it. He remembered that, in 1785, Lord Thurlow
observed, upon hearing a contract objected to upon
similar grounds, " What ! do you think I sit here
to say that all bad bargains are no bargains ?" If
men thought they could get out of a scrape of this
kind, they were much mistaken. A man might hind
himself for any time. A celebrated player, whose
case was fresh in his recollection, had got into the
predicament, and had been obliged to remain in it.
Alderman KELLY asked whether, if the com-
plainants wished to get rid of an incompetent man,
they would be warranted in breaking their contract
with him ? It might, he said, have been imprudent
in the defendant to enter into the contract, but it
was certainly binding upon him.
Mr. Harmer regretted that advantage was about
to be taken of a young man who had made an im-
provident bargain, and made an indignant allusion to
Shylock's inflexible determination to have the due
forfeit of his bond.
Mr. Frodsham showed that the house he belonged
to was Christian, and gave up two years of the ser-
vitude without hesitation. The defendant then re-
turned to his work.
