IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

THE. Advantage the Public must always deriv-
from regularly educated professional ins n directing almost
exclumecly their studies to one species of malady, was never more
clearly demonstrated than by the unexampled success which has
attended the administration of their new remedy, and the extraor-
dinary cures it has performed. For a long se=es of rem, 'Messrs.
Cue sit and Co. Surgeons, formerly in his Majesty's service, have
made the Venereal Disease the particular ohjett of their investi•
gatinu, and are happy in having discovered tmedicineauperier to
mercury in the cure of that tomplairsti.it is sofficient to observe
that the effects of this.remedy are diametrically oppusitit to those
of mercury, for though it completely eradicates-every vestige at
the virus, in its most confirmed stages, yet it does not in the least
injure the constitution ; on the contrary, it enovates the system
In all its natural functions, promotes appetite, and facilitates di-
gestion : thus instead of reducing a strong and vigorous conati.ns
Lion to the frightful condition that mercury does, it no: only pre-
serves that constitution in its primitive state, but restores a ire*
and debilitated one to ito natural strength and vigour. Number-
less instances are on recent record Of the superior efficacy of thin
medicine, its inherent and sp.-eific virtues acting as a perpetual
corrective to bodily debility, whether proceeding from an extras
of conjugal or illicit pleasure, or from the more insidious, though
not less destructive, indulgence of incautious yowls of both sexes
in a certain pernicious habit. Amidst the melancholy variety of,
disorders which are the eorssequence of this solitary vice, there are
none moreaffiicting than that distressing state of debility and de-
Itciency which prevents or embitters the matrimonial state ; the
unhappy suitiirer broods over his misfortune, ashamed to seek re.
lief, until he is reduced to such_ a state of weakness as to render
life oppressive. To such persons It must h a consoling nitre-
! don to know, that they may now, by a new infallible inole of
treatment, be restored to that greatest of all human blessings, a
strong, manly and vigorous constitution.

I have the honour to tramsrnit to your Excellency
a copy of a letter from general Murray, which
have this moment received, and whieh certainly coy-
responds with the opinion I have always entertained
on the coudupt a our Allies. Our flag is hoisted on
the Tower of St. Julian, and it is garrisoned by the
regiment of artillery of Corte. The Admiral com-
manding the Russian squadron has sent his compli-
ments pn the occasion. And thus, Sir, we hope, under
PROVIDENCE, that nothing will obstruct the prosecu-

with which so many men of honour and probity haTe
engaged in the service of our Prince and country.

COPY OF A LETTER FROM GENERAL MURRAY, ABOVE
REFERRED TO.
After my arrival in the camp, I received a letter
from the Adjutant General, written under an idea
that I should have the honour to see you ; but as
this will not take place as soon as I could wish,
must address you in writing. The Adjutant General
assures me, in the name of the General, that it was
merely through mistake that the English flag was
hoisted on Fort St. Julian ; that nothing could be
more distant from his intentions, and that the mg-
mot he was apprised of it, he caused it to be taken
down, and the Portuguese placed in its stead. It
would certainly have been better if this had not
occurred, but I trust that your Excellency, and the
Portuguese Nation, will be satisfied it proceeded only
from a mistake. lam fUrther to inform your Ex,
cellency, that there is now in the Fort St. Julian a
body of Portuguese artillery which had been in the
French service. It appears to me, from the tenor of
the letter, that the General thinks it advisable to re.
move it from thence, but he at the same time directs '
me to request your Excellency's opinion and wishes
on this subject.
I cannot conclude without expressing to your Ex-
cellency my sense of your obliging atlrmtions since
my corps has been united with yours, and to assure
you that I am, &e. (Signed) DrunRAY.

It has heel erroneously stated in a Morning Paper
that this Gentleman died yesterday. This is so far I
from being the fact, that he had a better alght (as it is
termed), between Monday and Tuesday, than he had
experienced since the commencement of his illness.—
His family and domestics, by whom it is scarcely ne-
cessary to say, he is most enthusiastically beloved,
have been in high spirits since yesterday, in conse-
quence of this flattering change. Dr. Pe-ARSON, who
is indefatigable in his attentions to Mr. Took left
Wimbledon yesterday morning at eight o'clock, after
passing the night with his patient Sir FroiNcis Bun,
DETT still continues to execute all the offices of a nurse
to his sick friend. Mr. ToOKE is able at intervals to
join in the conversation of those friends who visit
him, and still enjoys the full possession of his trans-
cendant' abilities in their utmost plenitude. He is
tranquil and composed, and seems much gratified and
affected by the tender solicitude evinced by those
who have been accustomedsto .4 hang with rapture on
his accents," during every change which has agitated

PRIVATE LETTER.-GOTTENBURGH, SEPT. 7.

" It is calculated that the Russians have lost 30,000
men since the commencement of the war in Finland.
A want of provisions, and the intense cold have been
particularly fatal to them. I can assure you fmm
gooi authority that in Aland, Gothland and Finland,
the Swedes have collected and taken about 11,000
stand of arms from the Russians, among which there
is not one single Russian musket, all of them being
part of the 20,000 stand furnished two years ago by
the Swedes to Russia, at the request of Great Britain.
The troops encamped in the neighbourhood of Riga,
are said to be nearly destitute of arms. Under such
circumstances it is no wonder they should continue t
be overawed,by the French.

SPAIN.

At a late hour last night a Spanish Courier arrived
at the Secretary of State's Office, with dispatches, an-
nouncing that one of the divisions of the British troops
had reached to within two days march of the Spanish
army under General BLAKE. In a day or two, we
may therefore expect to hear that they have effected
their junction..

This morning we received Corunna Papers to the
2d inst. brought by the Elizabeth packet. From the
contents of these journals, we have no doubt that the
British troops alluded to in the preceding paragraph,
are those under Sir JOHN MOORS ; for we find that on
the 14th ult. he had reached Salamanca with his di-
vision, to the great joy of the inhabitants, who had
received them with every demonstration of affection.
They speak in high terms of the discipline and good
conduct of the British troops, which it may easily
be conceived, must form a striking contrast with
what has been experienced wherever French troops
have shewn themselves.—We need hardly add, that
Salamanca is only about 50 miles from Burgos, and
about 40 from Leon.

Our Readers will recollect that according to the
Fourth Bulletin of the French Army, it had reached
Valladolid and Palencia on the 13th, the day before
Sir JOHN MOORE arrived at Salamanca. Sir DAVID
BAIRD, it will also be recollected, was to be at As-
torga about the same day, and Generals MOORE and
BAIRD were to join their forces at Valladolid, now
occupied by the French. It is, therefore, evident
that the contending armies are now in contact, but
the intended junction of the British at Valladolid,
cannot take place at that station, unless the French
shall have retreated, which is possible, if they have
not been since reinforced ; for they had only sent for-
ward, in that dikettion, 10,000 men—a force which, with
all the hoaxing of the enemy, we venture to affirm,
would pot dare In face Sir Jon?? McKim's division.
Our time and limits do not permit us to analyse
the accounts received in these papers.—We subjoin
the most prominent articles, and to-morrow we shall
give fartLer extracts.

BISHOP OF I ONDON'S COURT, DOCTORS COMMONS,
WEDNESDAY, DECFMtER 7.
PM ON v. PEYTON.

This was a suit of nullity of marriage, brought by
the husband against his wife, by reason of minority.
From the libel produced, it appeared that the parties
had been married for the period of ten years, and that
the marriage was solemnized under a licence obtain-
ed on the oath of the husband, the lady being then
only sixteen years of age.
The Court (Sir WILLIAM Scorr) after hearing the
learned Civilians on the one side and the other, and
recapitulating the evidence, was of opinion, that the
Moe did not amount to sufficient proof to warrant
the Court in coming to the conclusion, that consent
had not been given on the part of the father ; and ad'
cordingly dismissed the parties.

Wilson had snatched a paper which was to be
laid before the Arbitrator • and her husband had, as
it was alledged afterwards, assaulted the defendant,
who proceeded to charge them with assault, but did
not prosecute them to trial. It was upon this failure
that damages were asked for to recompence the in-
jury which they had sustained, and-the Jury accord-
ingly gave the plaintiffs 459.

Private letters were yesterday received from Hol-
land, with intelligence that NAPOLEON has ordered a
relaxation to take place in the regulations enjoined by
his Milan Decree, respecting Neutrals.' By the de-
cree alluded to, it was ordered that all neutrals
which had touched at a British port, or submitted to
be searched by a British cruiser, should be confiscated
on afterwards entering a French port, or condemned
as legal prizes if taken by a French armed vessel.—
It is new ordered that neutrals shall be admitted into
French ports, though they may have been searched
by a British cruiser, provided they have not called at
a British port.
As the motive for this pretended favour to neutrals
cannot be mistaken, we may venture to affirm that
our Government will instantly give orders for double
vigilance, to prevent any neutrals whatever from en-
tering the ports of France or her Allies, on any
ground or pretext whatever.
The plain matter of fact is this , NAPOLEON finds i
himself in want of certain supplies, necessary for the
maintenance of the war against Spain, and which he
has brought upon himself by those very decrees
which he issued to distress British commerce; and
therefore he wishes now to apply a remedy.—By re-
laxing in the Milan Decree, he expects that the Ame-
rican Government will be induced to remove its em-
bargo, so far at least as regards vessels bound for
France—Nor would it cause, to us, any surprise,
were we soon to hear that Mr. JEFFERSON'S party has
resolved to return to NAPOLEON a card of the same
suite.

It is folly now to talk of the Law of Nations—the
Laws of Neutrality ! For these fifteen years past,
there has been no other Law of Nations but that of
force ; and none but fools will allow themselves to be
duped by an appeal to principles which ceased to have
the force of law from the moment that they lost their
restraint upon one of the parties.

BARRON V. lIATFULT..

Mr. Serjeant COCKELL described this to be an
action brought by a very ingenious smith, to recover
101. for making joints and plates for the Royal car.
ronades ant artillery. The defendant holds a con.
tract under the Board of Ordnance, and he employed
the plaintiff to do the work in question.
It was argued in behalf of the defendant, that the
charges were irregular; but several witnesses proved
that the work had been done at the usual prices, and
the Jury gave tjle plaintiff a verdict for the whole of
his demand.

a reference.
GORDON AND OTHERS V. FRAZER, BART.
This action was brought against the defendant, as
the registered owner of the Duke of Montrose East
Indiaman, for iron work furnished that ship in the
years 1803 and 1804, to the amount of £1749. In
consequence of the deathiof de former owners, Messrs.
Farquharsons succeeded them in the year 1795, as
their executors ; but in the course of the evidence, it
appeared that the ship was sold in 1802 or 1803, and
Mr. Moses Agar became the owner, though the re-
gister was not altered; and on Mr. Agar being
he pz oved that the iron work was supplied solely
on his credit, which was known to one of the defend-
ants at the time he solicited,the job. The plaintiffs
were nonsuited.
BOARDMAN AND ANOTHER V. SILL AND ANOTHER.
This was an action of trover, brought against the
defendants for de fining seven pieces of brandy. In
May 1807, Messrs. Dickson and Ramsay, of London,
importei into• Liverpool a cargo of brandy, and their
agent, Mr. Lane, sold 20 pieces of it to a Mr. Keb-
blethwaite of that place, and he resold 14 out of the
20 to the Plaintiffs, for which they paid. The plain-
tiffs had at this time the care and custody of the
whole cargo, and of course they took five of the
pieces, but Kebbletlswaite having failed, and not
paying for the whole of what he purchased, the defen-
dants sent their clerk and obtained the key of the
vaults where the brandy was 'deposited, under the
pretence of looking at it, and by this \means got pos-
session of the seven pieces now claimed, and since
May last, refused to deliver them.—Verdict for the
plaintiffs, £214. 13s. 6d.
