ADVICE.

WHEN Men of Education and professional skid
use persevering endeavours to discover the ,nest sate rad
certain method of treating a few prevailing Diseases, tin a access.
WI result of their experience is the best proof of saricrioritt.
Messrs. CUSS and Co. Surgeons, have been Induced to make
the cure of the following the object of their particular study, viz.
a certain Disorder, frequently contracted in a moment of 'aim-
cation, and its cenconntarts, Strictures and Cleets, whtab, y
an improved plan, are speedily and effectually cured ; as afro de-
bility, whether arising from Bacchanalian Indulgences, long resi-
dence., ""rM climates, or a secret solitary vice, too often un-
happily pursued by the youth n t both sexes, in the one causirg
sterility or barrenness, and in :he- other a numerous train of ner-
vous disases, which, if PM t:Meiy remedied, terminate in imp°.
teve and constantvion. In that distressing state of debility or
de'ficiency, whether the consequence of such baneful habits, or
ansing from any other calve, by which the powers of the consti-
tution lexunie en!,..bled, rei!ula:iy et:mated Surgeons of Loa.
don. they oder a fit rn, sale, a..d speed, restoration to sound arid
vildrous health.
The restat of a long and :vendee practice has enabled them,
by a superior nterlti.ti, to remove vtuen•al complaints, however
inveterate or conTheatti, without subjt•ctimt the patient to the
least restraint in dist or exercise; and in .:cent Case.: where an
early application is male can discovery of the infection, they fre-
quently perform a cure in the short •psce of ts••o days. 'I hr un-
precedented success of their mode of tr• atrnee t (which has never
been known to fail in one single int taece in a praciice of IS yeasts,
during which period many thousand personaof I;:.th sexes have
been cured, even after severe and ittjuriotis metho,!, had beta
pursued by other Praciitioners witboat effect), Induces them to
thus publicly offer their advice.
Messrs. Goss and Co. exclusively professing the cure of th:se
particular complaints, in order that they may not he, by a
mistaken few, marked with the obloquy so justly attached to
the Ignorant empiric, tbinsa it bu: justice to themselves to state
that they have been properly educated and initiated into every
branch of the profession (certificates of which, from difTerttr.
Hospitals, and testimonials from :he most eminent Physicians,
they have to convince any inquirer) that the success resulting
front their endeavours first induced them to quit the practice of
the general Practitioner, and they presume that their pretensions
constitute a fair ground for the unprecedented confidence with
which they have, by the Public, been so liberally honoured.
Patients in the country are requested to state the par iculare
of their case, age, and manner of living, enclosing a Bank-note
for advice and medicines, and the same will be forwarded to any
part of the kingdom.
To be consulted at their house daily (personally, or by letter),
by patients of either sex, with secrecy, delicacy, and attention.

HELIGOLAND MAIL.

[PURIHER EXTRACTS.]
LEIPSICK, APRIL 18.

The following Proclamation, issued by the Impe-
rial General Baron Von Winzingerode, Las appearei
here :

" It is a usual measure with the enemies of all justice, to treat
with the greatest severity all places and persons which, on the
approach of the Allied Army. by word or deed, express the
sentiments with which all true Germans are inspired, whenever
a change in the position of the troops brings them again into
such neighbourhood. This induces me, once for all, to make the
express declaration, that I shall put in force the right of retaliation
in its greatest latitude, for all such violence., which have been
committed in the absence of the troops under my command; net
only on the dishonourable German mercenaries, that are in my
power, but will likewise, for such purpose, seize the next Civil
Magistrate that shall render himself suspected of disaffection.—
Every punishment by death will unavoidably and instantly be
followed, on my side, by a similar proceeding ; and by suds
means every country will receive some compensation for its loss
of worthies, by the diminution of those, who for a base gain be.
tray the sacred cause of their native country to foreigners, and ag
servants of tyranny, become instruments to the oppression of
their brethren. We, who follow the will of PRovtnssics In the
plain road of justice, may hope in Gon, that very shortly no
such enemy will farther dare to oppose warriors, in whom the
power of their native country is made known, and who are only
inflamed to revenge for dishonoured humanity, by the sight of
such mercenary hordes.
" His Imperial Russian Majesty's Lieutenant General, &c.

IRISH DISTILLERIES.

Sir J. NEWPORT hoped that the Session would
not be suffered to pass away until some efficacious
measure was adopted to prevent that enormous evi'
which existed in Ireland, in consequence of illicit
distillation, which had made a greater progress there
now than at any former period. If some measure
was not adopted, the duty on spirits would be reduce 4
almost to nothing.
Mr. W. FITZGERALD assured the House, that
he fully concurred in the sentiments and statements
of his Right Hon. Friend ; but the fact was, that a
law which had been enacted for the prevention of the
evil, had been found impracticable, and had been
repealed. He trusted, however, that a strong mea-
sure would be shortly adopted to put down the
grievance in question. The Bill wa4 ordered to be
read a third time on Monday.

SIIIPWRECKS.

THE benevolent attention of the Charitable of this
great. Metropolis is most anxiously solicited to the late
melancholy event in Donegal Bay, on the North West Coast of
1-eland. By this awful visitation, no less than 42 industrious
litho-men, actively employed in provilling the means of support-
ing their funilies, have suddenly perished ! Thirty Widows
'bare to lament in sorrow and misery the fate of their Husbands,
and tOll Children are thrown desevite Orphans upon the World!
A Calamity so disastrous and extensive is unparalleled in the do-
mestic History of that Coentry. Many of the unhappy Sufferers
in this Misfortune are rendered totally destitute a support, and
others have. at once been deprived of Property and Life, by the
expiration of their Leases—thus it may be truly said, that an are
become equal objects of public conspassion. An appeal to the
humanity of the Public has already been nude in Ireland and
Scotland, with considerable succeig ; and it is hoped- that where
Charity is fed with such unbounded liberality, the event will not
be less favourable.

Benefactions will be received by Meters. Morlind and Co.
Bankers Pall-null.

derate weather.
HARWICH, APRIL SO.

The Freeling, bye boat, has arrived after a short
passage, froin Heligoland, with a ma .l and passen-
gers, but :he does not bring any confirmation of the
reports of a victory obtained by the Russians over the
French, near Magdeburgh, brought by the DIANA.
We had a tremendous gale from the eastward yes-
terday, which continued with great violence during
the night, and the harbour is now extremely crowded
with shipping, several hundred sail having run in for
shelter ; many have lost anchors and cables, and one
large ship, bound to Dantzic, has been brought in
full of water, having grounded on her anchor. A
Danish Messenger arrived in the Freeling, on his way
m Count BERNSTOFF, but that Minister being here, on
his return to Denmark, the Messenger did not proceed
to London.—Wind East, and moderate.

Yesterday, the Deputation of Merchants connected
with the Brdtic Trade waited on the Minister, to state'
to him the hardship the new duty would be on those
.:hips which were detained by the weather last winter
in the Baltir, requesting him to take off the said
duty on those ships—which was refused.

The following Notice was yesterday posted at
LLOYD'S
" Lloyd's, April 50th, 1819.
" The Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty have been
pleased to inform the Committee, that several of the Masters of
Vessels in the Fleet just arrived from the Baltic, were inattentive
to the Convoy, and that they have ordered the Masters of the
brig Thornton, of London, and Ann, of Shields, to be prose-
cuted for attempting to separate from the Convoy.
JONN IBENNIT, JUN."

The ship Adelphi, DAVID RAITT, of Aberdeen, has
been captured on her voyage from Liverpool to the
Brazils, by the Comet American privateer, of 14
guns and 95 men. The men and boys were taken
out of the Adelphi and put in irons on board the pri.
vateer until the Bth February, when they were put
on board a schooner bound to Roque, which carried
them to Pernambucco. One American was killed
and two wounded in the action, which no doubt
led to the severe treatment the crew of the Adelphi
I experienced, all of whom were plundered of every
thing belonging to them. Captain awn RAITT
was left on board the Adelphi, which was sent for
Baltimore. The rest of the convoy to which the
Adelphi belonged, eight in number, have all been
captured by the Americans, and the loss, upon the
whole, is estimated at ir350,000 sterling !

moirryihr AGRICULTURAL REPORT.

Every seasonable operation in the various depart.
ments in agriculture has proceeded with facility;
through the whole of the last month the weather has
been more congenial to vegetation than we are accus-
tomed to experience in this climate in the month cf
April. The young wheats have made the most proli-
fic tillow ; the flag is strong, and of a healthful co-
lour ; sure signals of a full crop, should not atmos-
pheric affections intervene. Great breadths of spring
wheats have been sowa, and the early ones have the
most promising appearance. The whole of 'the legu-
minous tribe have made a strong appearance. The
tender plants have escaped the various depredations
of the slug, and promise a full productive crop, should
they be equally fortunate in regard to the fly.
Cattle Mat kets, both for fat and lean stock, some-
what reduced in price. Mulch cows and cart horses
.never before at such a price in Britain ; cows just
c.dved have been sold at ge3s each—cart horses from
4E60 to £ I Oa each, this extraordinary price, it may be
hved, i‘ ill promote the use of oxen for labour, one
of the greatest savings both individual and. national,
in the whole range of rural ceconomy. The distem-
per arising from atmospheric influenza in horses has
pr2vailcd considerably this spring. The rot in sheep
has fortunately ceased, and the lambing has been, thus
far, successful.

•„1" The plan and execution of the Encyclopaedia Briton:llm
have now received the decided approbation of the public for
more than 40 years. The publication of Four Editions, with
successive improvements during that period, and the sale of not
leis than Twenty-Ave Thousand Copies must be regarded as a
very unequivocal proof of public favour.
In the Fifth Edition, now offered to the Public, it is intended
that the four last volumes shall consist entirely of original arti-
cles. To this part, which is to be considered as distinct from the
original body of the work, a Dissertation will be prefixed, on a
plan analogous to that of the Discours Pretiminair, of D'Alembert
prefixed to the French Encyclopedic, and justly regarded as one
of the great ornaments of that celebrated work.
In the composition of this part of the work, the Proprietors
have the high gratification of being able to state to. the public,
that they have reason to expect the assistance of Mr. Dugald
Stewart, on Mural and Political Philosophy; Professor Playfair,
on Mathematics and Physics; and Sir Humphrey Davy, on the
Philosophy of Chemistry.
