ESSENCE of SHRIMPS, a new and snperior
SAUCE for FISH, equal in strength to Essence of
Anchovies, but far excelling it in flavour, and has the ad-
vantage of not turning rancid. The botnense demand for it
is a convincing proof of the estimation it is held in by those
who have tried it. The Proprietors flatter themselves, that
wherever it is once used, it will obtain a pre-eminence over
all other Sauces fur Fish.

Made I#v C. Dinsmore and Son ; and sold by T. Powell and Son
111, Holhorn-hill, Corner of Hatton-garden. The Public
are respect folly regnested to observe, that each bottle has
the signature„of C. Dinniore and Son ; none other is ge-
nuine ; this caution is necessary, as there is a spurious arti-
cle now on sale.

TO T. TAYLOR, Esq. No. 9, New Bridge-street, London,
HofstoußED Stu, •
y BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the
I year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal
which, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine
prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un-
4ers,roing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis-
Charged from the Hospital with little relief, would appear to
be of the most inveterate nature. In the spring of last year
my disorder had got to such a head, as noarly to put a period
tee my existence—l had a large ulcer on the crown of my head,.
one on each arm, and my legs were broke out in a frightful
Manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and tiad 'seen in a
state of ulceration for the last seven years ; my left had also
two large nodes on it, was vory touch discoloured, and gave
me such excruciating pain, particularly when warns in bed,
as nearly to deprive me of rest ; iu this lamentable state, I
was recommended isy Mr. .1. Thompso.l, (who received so
great a cure by them here), to take your Leake's Patent Pills,
which I began is do on the 26th o. May ; in the course of a
fortnight I began to receive hellcat -in little more than a
month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed—
sa,s) after, the sores on my legs healed also; leaving., how-
ever, considerable diseolouration in the skin, and pain in the
hone of the left, which, by the Westing of God, and a little
your invaluable Medicine, subs:.!ed ; longer perseverance in
the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue, and
the nocturnal pains gradually going off.--I thus became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from all my
tomer complaints—have recovered my former spirits a nd
strength, and ani Irecome jolly and fat, in which state having
Continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew
me, I am at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but
beg you, for the go-ad of other suffering mortals, to make
this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa-
sion; in so doing you will greatly oblige,
Sir, your grateful, obedient, very'humble servant,
ALEX. M UKKER.

BOW-CHURCH,CHEAPSIDE.—It is reported, that
the greater part of the beautiful steeple of this
Church will be pulled clown. At the time of the
building of the beautiful tower and spice, by Sir
CHRISTOPHER IVRENT, in the year 1673, and, for
many years afterwards, it was held in so high es-
timation, and its fame spread so far abroad, that
many foreigners came over to see it. It has been
very justly deemed the masterpiece of Sir C.
WREN ; be has not equalled it in any of his de-
signs, public or private, nor indeed has any other
architect. The height of this steeple is 225 feet,
and it is built on an old Roman causeway, disco-
vered by Sir C. -WREN, at the time of rebuilding
the present Church— .

WORCESTER MUSIC MEETING.

[From the Troreester Journal, Sept. 24.]

We have already adverted to the performances
on Wednesday morning. At the Concert in the
evening, Miss Symonds displayed a very correct
taste in the recitative and aria '' Dove son() :" this
young lady, possessing a very sweet, though not
a powerful voice, promises to become a great fa-
vourite; the applause which site received, not
only front the audience, but front those most per-
fect in the art, will, we hope, stimulate her to
great exertion, as the specimen she has given of
her natural talents induces us to think that when
-they are matured by study and intercourse with
the musical world, she will rank very high in the
profession. Miss Stephens's echo song, " What
Airy Sound," was enchanting, and it proved that
her powers of pleasing are undiminished. The
glee "My Laddie is gone," by Miss Stephens,
Messrs. knyvvt, Vaughan, and Bellamy ; and
the echo doer 'Now Hope, now Fear," by Mrs.
Salmon and Mr. Brabant, excited much applause
On Thursday morning the Messiah was per-
formed in a style of excellence which, while it
did the highest credit to the various perforilters,
communicated feelings of delight to the auditors;
indeed we believe that we are not going too far in

saying, that this sublime composition was never
performed with happier effect. At the Concert
in the evening, Mr. Bellamy's song, " Fast into
the waves,"' was a fine specimen of that gentle-
man's style of singing : Miss Stephens's " Auld
Robin Gray " was deservedly encored, as was Mrs.
Salmon's " 0 Dolce Concento," which, as well
as " Vittima Sventurata," displayed the fine and
improving talents of Mrs Salmon to great advan-
t3ge; her duet with Mr. Brabant, " When thy
Bosom heaves the Sigh," was much admired
Mr. Vangban's cantata, " See from the silent
Groves," was giyen with very great taste; we
cannot avoid complimenting this Gentleman on

having now attained that degree of animation in
his style of singing which was formerly consider-
ed as the only qualification requisite to render it
entitled to the praise of perfection in its kind :
Air. Braham's " Scots wha hae wi' IVallace bled"
was rapturously encored ; and the evening's per-
formances were finely concluded with the cele-
brated Gipsey Gtee in Guy Mannering, by Miss
Stephens, Miss Symonds, Mr. Bellamy, and
chorus.

Of the beautiful Selection performed at the
Cathedral on Friday morning we feel it difficult to
speak—so many of the choicest efforts of the mu-,
sical art presented themselves to us. " Deeper
and deeper still," and " Sound an Alarm," by
Mr. Brabam, were given in his best style ;
" Angels ever bright. and fair," " Farewel, ye
limpid Streams," " Pious Orgies," and "As
from the Power of sacred Lays," by Miss Ste-
phens„ delighted her auditors ;—the last air pro-
duced feelings which nothing hut the sacredness
of the place could restrain : Mrs. Salmon's song,
" With Verdure clad," displayed her voice and
execution to great advantage ; but we feel quite
incompetent to express in adequate terms the de-
light she gave her auditors in the air " From
mighty Kings.". We must not omit to allude in
terms of the highest approbation to Mr.Vangban's
air, " 0 Liberty "—Mr. Bellamy's recitative,
" And God said "—and Mr. Knyvett's recitative,
" Jehovah crowu'd." In the evening's Concert,
Miss Stephens's " Sweet Bird," and Mrs. Sal-
mon's " My Lodging is on the cold Ground,"
were delightfully sung ; Mr. Bellamy's " Adieu,"
and Mr. Vaughan's " in Life's gay Scenes," were
justly applauded ; the glee, " Peaceful slumber-

ing on the Ocean," by Miss Stephens, Messrs.
Knyvett, Vaughan, and Bellamy, was most melo-
dious : Miss Symonds, by -particular desire, re-
peated the recitative and aria 4‘ Dove Sono," in
which she was so much applauded on the first
night. The whole performances concluded with
" God Save the King."—We must not dismiss
these brief notices of the vocal performers with-
out observing that the grandeur and correctness of
the chorusses excited general admiration. IVe
should be unjust were we to pass over in silence
the admirable efforts of the instrumental per-
formers, who, under their skilful! leader, Mr. Cra-
mer, acquitted themselves with more than usual
excellence. The 'concertos of Messrs. Cramer,
Lindley, Williams, Griesbach, and Petrides, were
very fine'performances; Mr. Mutlow presided at
the organ, and Mr. Hayter at the piano-forte,with
their 'usual ability. Seyeral of the overtures were
much admired, more especially Cherubini's to
Anacreon, which was unanimously encored.
We have the gratification of saying, that the
collections for the Charity upon the above occa-
sion have exceeded those of any former meeting
in this city.
The company which attended upon the occasion
was very numerous and distinguished ; at the
College-hall, on Thursday, nearly 1,100 persons
were present.

Madame Mortaw, widow of the late General
McREAU, who has passed the last two months at
the waters of Aix, in Savoy, is returned to Paris.
Her health is completely restored.
A Correspondent of a Glasgow Paper says,
" Those ineividnals who have so willingly en-
tered into the speculation for the purpose of
shipping off potatoes from this part of the coun-
try, ought to recollect that some time ago a cargo
of that article, after being taken to Liverpool
and Dublin, was brought back to Glasgow, when
they were so much spoiled, that even cows would
not eat them. -Some of your Readers may remem-
ber of the stench which they emitted when lying

[PRICE SEVENPENCE.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' ACT.

FOR THE SUN.

Mit. EntToß,—Strange as it may sound, this
in its execution is an act of oppression, for the
convenience of Parliament, rather than the bene-
fit of itrolvents; and it obliges us to prefer the
! 0 rtner mode of legislative relief, on the spur of

necessity ; when our jails were crowded to excess,

' and nothing but the imprisonment of debtors
could be expected for the satisfaction of creditors.
The provisions were fair and equitable. The •
Magistrates in Sessions watched their compliance
on short and easy terms. They discharged or re-
manded their applicants according to the merit or
demerit of their cases. They had no other Court ;
there were no Agents, but Attornies ; no special
Commissioner, at a large expeuct to' the country,
clothed with powers short of arbitrary ;.but under
this act there is a sort of an assumed system of

jurisprudence raised, with a distinct Court Conn-
sel and Agents, who are not Attornies, to pro-
►note or oppose the prayers of prisoners for debt.
Fees are exacted for them and the Court, which

increase ten pounds at a time, accordingly as they
are remanded to amend their schedules, or solve
objections ; often made by the malicious,' v‘ ho
know it will neither lighten their loss, nor dis-
charge their debts. Such an act therefore cannot
be called wholesome, when only a part of its pur-
pose is answered, by easing Parliament in passing
periodical statutes of insolvency, and all the rest
of it is frequently defeated. It embraces too
much ; consequently fraud is produced by the
knave on one hand, and oppression of the inno-
cent and 'unfortunate on the other. This it is
that lengthens' simple justice into trade ; and so
unworthy is it of Englts!' law, that glorious will
be the day when it is corrected, and every unfor-
tunate prisoner for debt shall be within the reach
of right.

I shall not at present descend into particulars,
but propose sending you a series of papers on the
subject of this Act of Parliament, and of imp►
sonment for debt, which will, I flatter myself, he
read in THE SUN with affecting interest, under
the signature of

AN OLD BARRISTER.

THE BIBLE AND SCHOOL SOCIETIES.

FOR THE SUN.

On my word, Mi. Editor, I do not think that

these Societies have been treated by your. Corre-
spondents with becoming respect. Their end is

iandahle, and I cannot believe them to be evil
spirits, meditating a correction of sin in the broad
face of day, and its secret promotion in the dark-
ness of night, for the downfall of the Protestant
Church, which they affect to defend : neither can.
I believe that attenlightened Archdeacon, who has
a good heart, has a foolish head.
read the proceedings of the Shrewsbury So-
ciety, and your remarks, with satisfaction. I dis-
covered nothing in them that tended to mischief ;
nothing, on the contrary, bat what tended to the
best of purposes, the improvement of the judgment,
and the amendment of the heart ; teaching it to
pursue good for the sake of goodness, and to
avoid evil with abhorrence. Vet it has been
obliquely said that something foul lurks under-
neath all this ; and in the pretence of sprinkling
the world with the Scriptures, a design is formed
for the demolition of the Established Church, to
strip the King of his spiritual supremacy, and his
Prelate.% of their mitres ; as if, like that hypocrite
in chief, Cromwell, by infusing cant and fanati.
cistn, the Societies mean to raise a gloomy op-
pression on the ashes of all that is dear to Britons:
Why else, Sir, are they held up as hot-beds of
deceit, under the garb of sincerity, sanctioned as
they are by the best of characters, and chiefly re-
viled by the worst ? Why, in one general sweep,
cast them away, from an Archdeacon to a Curate,
and from Mr. Brougham to the Lord knows
whom ? Do their assailants wish them dissolved,
and, that Mr. Brougham should be confined to

ew wood and draw water on his own estate in

the North, only because he has joined a corrupt
Opposition as a Foxite ? Why hunt him through
certain Newspapers in the Metropolis, as it he
wore the clothes of a fox, and smelt like one ?
I believe him to be a learned, an able, and an
eloquent man.: I believe him to be a good matt,
in the teeth of those who blindly insinuate that he
is zin muuvais sujet. He is old enough, and has a
right to think and act for himself; and though I
wish him to coalesce with those who have secur-
ed the Kingdom from the machinations of a Ty-
rant, who is a disgrace to God and his people, I
do not condemn him. Time and reflection may
work a happy alteration in him, and in the inte-
rim, however he may spew a party spirit, he will
do no harm, nor the Opposition he has joined ;
an Oppposition rooted in envy, disappointment,
and spleen ; an Opposition which, like ice,on the
warm approach of the solar rays, will melt into
water, and find a level in the ways of political
righteousness, to shame a recollection of the coun-
tenance given to disorder, insurrection, and re-
bellion in a deluded set of beings, led to believe
that the Ministers of the Crown are the vilest of
men in the King's dominions. For this it has
much to answer. Its political sins are ever be-
fore it, and On its day of reckoning, the Lord
send it a good deliverance.

THE QUEEN.

' Ketv, Eight o'Clock, Thursrfay Nig&

" Her Majesty passed the whole of last night in a state of
great pain and restlessness; although, flour the favourable
appearances of the preceding evening, a good night had been
anticipated. Both the Physicians, ;assisted by Mr. Braude,
were in alt.ndance nearly the whole of the night.
" Towards eleven o'clock her Majesty became more com-
posed, and stink into her usual torpor; and in this state she
continued throughout the day, almost perfectly silent, a..d
taking scar‘ely any thin;; but her medicines.

4‘ The Princesses, relieved by this change from direct per-
sonal attendance on their august and suffering Parent, in-
'theinselves in a long walk among the delightful
scenery of the domain anal gardens attached to the Palace.
Their Royal Highnesses were accompanied by Gener-al 'Tay-
lor in the more distant parts of their walk) anti, in the Bo-
tanic Gardens, they were joined by Sir Henry Halford. On
their return, they found the Countess of Cardigan at the
Ptllace, and, her Ladyship had the honour of taking refresh-
Joent s.ith 'their Royal Highnesses, arid remained with Oleo'
till three o'clock, when she departed for tier seat, near Rich,
stood. No other of the Nobility, except Lady Binning, have
visited the Palace this day.

" The Prince Regent arrived from Carlton House, pre-
cisely at five o'clock, His Royal Highness did not remain
many minutes in her Majesty's **Chamber, aS sire was appa-
rently in a state of repose, from which it was not judged
proper to disturb her. The Prince, therefore, after con-
vet.sing with his illesti ions sisters for about half an hour,
and receiving the report of the Physicians, returned to Carfton
Hcuse. His Royal Highness was alone, and appeared d'e:-
pressed in spirits.

" Sir Henry lialford and Sir Francis Milman remain in
attendance; and Mr. Ilrande and Colonel Stephenson are
just arrived.'•
