HANNAY'S ORIGINAL SPECIFIC,

For the Infallible PREVENTION of a CERTAIN DISORDER.
FORTY YEARS experience in every quarter of
-I- the World, has indisputably established the Fact, to xvllieh
the Discoverer (the late Sit SAMUEL HANNAY, Bart.) pledged
himself, that this Pa ;vex TATIvE was infallible in its powers, and
effectually s9cured to noTti Sexes complete protection, where the
directions were punctually observed. Many are prudently de-
terred front trying the effect of any antidote, internally, fearing
consequences injurious to the Constitution. In the use of the
SPECIFIe (an external Wash) there is every thing to hope, nothing
to dread—the doubts of the Sceptic, and the opposition f the In-
terested, are alike subdued.
It is notorious, and has ly:en particularly remarked by the Fa-
culty, that this terrible disease is not so frequent as heretofore,
and the blessing has been fairly attributed to the universal adop-
tion of those principles, upon which this highly celebrated Lodola
is formed. The undiminished celebrity of its characler for so long
a period is its best eulogium, and advocate; its cause better than .a
thousand attested cases, which, for obvious reasons, the applica-
tion of this remedy renders inadmissible.
This Antivenereal Lotion is confidently recommended to the
Army and Navy, and to all those going abroad, (as it will retain
its virtues fur yea- Ks in any climate,) they, from the nature of their
services, being more peculiarly exposed to the ravages of this
Eidson:kr. It is sold in bot:Ls, at lOs. (hi. each, or 10s. if moss than
ons, and at 7s. cid.; or three fer a Guinea (stamps included), at
No. 1, Little Sulfelk-stre..t, Haymarket, where, only in London,
it can be had genuine.—lt will lie sent to any part a the Unite
Kingdoms, by in.:losing an addrss, real or assumed, with is
Bank note equivalent to the quantity required, directed (post
paid) to Mr. Lem( COOK, at the above old-established Ware-
house ; who will answer, as usual, all orders With strict fidelity.

XTITIiERS' BALM OF QUITO, plke 2s. 9d.
v is the best Remedy in the universe for Nervous Com-
plaints, the most powerful Restorative and reanimating Balm of
Life and Health, and the safest and best Medicine in the World.
—lt is not pretended that this Medicine can arrest the progress
of. nature, but it is asserted, and proved, that it will restore
HEALTH, even where the Constitution appears to have bees
irreparably injured. Those who have impaired their health by a
residence in hot and unhealthy climates; the young of either Sex
whose hafittai(ies threaten premature old age, a life of misery, anl
an early dissolution ; and those more advanced in years, whose
tottering, sapless frames, appear withered and almost •worn out,
are the more immediate objects of this soothing Balm, the benigia
influence of which may be extended to the whole class of Valetn-
tiltariatts. For in all cases, and in all ages, where the solids an
relaxed, where the constitution has received a shock, or is by any
means debilitated, this RESTORATIVEandRE-ANIMATING
BALM cf 1.11 Z.' and HEALTH, will produce the happi.est
effects ; the cold and tremulous nerves will be warmed and sax-
died ; the relaxed fibres will be braced and rendered firm ; the
muscles will he invigorated, , the sinews will be strengthened,
the emaciated limbs Will be covered with firm flesh, the exhaust-
ed vessels will be replenished, the impoverished watery blood wilt
bc.come rich and balsamic, and its languid circelation restored to
the sanative impetus, which is the true criterion of health ; tlae
languid drooping spirits w ill be revive • and exhilarated, diges.ket
will he promoted ; in short, the tone of the nerves will be re s-
tored, and by these means the whole conecitution will be rent,.
vated. . Feebleness, lassitude, anxiety, melancholy, and all.the
deplorable sy whims of disease, will vanish ; and strength, ardour,
serenity, and every evidence -of renovated health well be the happy
result of taking this inestimable Balm in doe time, according to
the directions for use which aocompany eachhtntle.

The following document has been published here.
Copy of a letter n•om his Highness the Prince Pri•
mate, to the Crand Dukes of Baden, Hessia, Wurtz•
burg, and the Duke of Nassau, dated

" Frankfort, Feb. 2, 1809:

" His Majesty the Emperor of France- having done me the
honour to write to me with his own band, has desired me to com-
munieee to the Princes of the Confederation of the Rhine, of
which he is the l'rotcctor, his encouraging intentions in lavitur
of vublie tranquillity. the spanh.ll armies are annihilated. The
English have re-embarked, having lost half of their troops, their
horses, baggage, anununi•loa, and a part of their treasure. This
success, and the movements of Austria, occasioned the return of
his Imperial Mjesty to Paris.

" The Confederation of the Rhine ought not to be under any
uneasiness. Its powerful Protector will secure its frontiers from
invasion. It is probable that the Court of Austria will return to
a system compatible with the maintenance of general tranquillity.
It is essential under the present circumstances, and it is the desire
of his Majesty, that all the Princes of the Confederation should
punctually furnish their contingents, and he ready to march at
the first novice. May I, in announcing the beneficent intentions
of his imperial Majesty, oar august Protector, beg you to corn-
munimte them as soon as possible to the College of Dukes and
Princes ? I seize this occasion of renewing the sentiments of high.
consideration with which, &c."

THE united Committee of the Inhabitants cf Ply-
mouth, Plymouth-Dock, and Stotiehoese, take the ear-
liest opportunity of announcing to the Subscribers to tbe Fund
raised for the Relief of the Widows, Wives, and Children of the
Soldiers lately arrived at this Port from Spain and Portugal, that
they have been enabled, by their liberal contributions, in great
measure to effect the benevolent purposes for which the fund was'
established. Former publications have stated, that a great num-
ber of Women and Children have obtained relief ; their nunthcr
appears byllie books to amount at present, (tile former iaclud-
ing 148 far advanctd in pregnancy) to 91r, the latter to 6'26 ;* tea
• these have been furnished with money and c'othes, of which they
were in the greatest want, many being nearly naked, and all un-
fit to be seen or approathed ; QS this number, the greater. part
have proceeded in transports to miter perts ; tiny others (ewe
been furnished with pasies, and travelled on fnot to join the Re-
giments to which their husbands belone ; ethers who we're un-
able to walk from the cireumstance. of psegeancy, Sickness, or
having young children with them, have been sent by the wag-
gons to their friends ; and 157 have been received at the three
Parish Workhouses, many or who.n are recovering from sickness'
and others from ehild-birth, and will soon hr enabled to join
their husbands or other friends ; the rest, hut corneeratively very
few, have died.
:toe have ale: achy informed the Subseeibers of their
intention to provide Henn sl Shirts, Drawers, Stockiugs, and Caps
for the wounded sick Saliers rt mains ler them there-
fore to state, that elevse eurelred of each of those articles have
been furnished to the eoldiers, under directiuu of ',heir medical
attendants. .
• The amount of ninnir sul-stinrd:cd to thin time, is 17991.115.
of this sum 13181. 7s. 74 has expc.7deti its the various pur-
poses before mentioned, and t.,!' wltich the tail may be seen, by

' ings, without acknow's sine. Ott- vrmsitti:st.ie 1-1:1 liberelity with
which the Fund has been n. :/a and styisarto•ti; and with con-
scious pride they declare, that ;us. ice region s tins first ring of
- thanks to he made to their own Townswomen, whose benevo-
lence end indef.'s igeble exertiens, at all times teeispisueus, hive
in this instance silent: forth so as to tratiscend all praise ; they are
in possession, however, et the ;neatest satisfaction, in the appro-
beam which their own minds will convey to them. The Com-
mittee cannot forget those kind indieiduals, whose benevolent
minds, though thstant from the scene of distress, yet ever anxious
to relieve it wherever it appears, prompted Went to assist is ena-
bling the Committee to combat with disease, poverty, end
. Wretchedness, in its direst garb ;.they trust, that to those, this
• acconut of the objects that have obtained relief will be satisfac-
tory : and the Committee wish them to be assured, that their
charity has been received with the greatest gratitude, and that the
tears of many a brave Soldier, conveyed to the. mi.:ds of the
Committee more than any words could express. It remains only
for the Committee to thank their Fellow-Townsmen for the con-
fidence they have reposed in them, and to express their hope,
that they have discharged the trust confided to them,satisfactotily
•
to the Inhabitants and the Public at large. •
