CASE 84.
SlR—Fnr seven years of my life I have been vio-
lently afflicted with rheumatism in my left kg and thigh,
Doting that time, I had what I considered the best medical ad-
vice,which only gave me a small temporary relief; until at last it
became so bad, that I was obliged to take to a strong stick to help
rue alom-, both in doors and out; when one morning 1 was taking
a turn in the street, a friend saw me, and asked the cause of
walking with a stick ? I informed him. He then recommended
me to you, and gave me your address. The next morning I wai-
ted on you, when in extreme pa n: in thirty minutes I was per-
fectly relieved, and in two days had to farther occasion for a
stick. I continued the Lotion and Pills for six weeks, and have
had no return of pain on that side for the last seven years; but
have twice since then Irk this disorder in the other side, which
by the use of your Medicines fur two or three days have been
quite restored, nor have I had any symptoms of it for the last
two years. I have recommended your Medicines to hundreds of
people in London, who have. used them with such advantage,
that I have for several years taken them in co-siderable quanti-1
tits to Lisbon and Itio Janeiro, where they have been used by.
Medical Gentlemen with almost universal success; consequently
I do consider that justice and humanity require of me to make
your discoveries as public as posslble..therelore by publi,hir o my
case, you will oblige, Sir, your humble servant, loUN QUINIOI4.

William Crain late of the Borough of Saltash, hut now of
Plymouth,the Borough of : in the county of Devon, do voluntarily
make oath that 1 was afflicted with a cancer In tr.y face for up-
wards of ten months, I had a very painful wound seated in my
nose, the greatest part of my face was dreadfully inflamed, atten-
ded with the most acute pain that could possibly be endured—my
head was also distracted with pain, and my eyes so severely affect-
ed that I could not hear the light, and °Wired me to sit whole days
together with my head OR my knees or some other support; dur-
ing my affliction I tried various medicines, as well from the ta-
culty, as others, without receiving the least relief, and the diseasti
increased daily; worn out with pain, no prospect of relief, and
having exhausted the little ranting% of many bard .yearsialieur,l
was almost reduced to a state of despoodeilcy,wheu I was advised
to make trial of Dr. Gilbert's Vegetable Antiscorbutic Drops ;
the *crone recommendation of those who had received cures from
-the medicine gave me hope it would succeed, and this hope semi
realised by the time I had taken the second bottle, the pain en •
tirely left me, the wound daily got better, and by the time I funl
taken five bottles I gained a perfect cure.

411NIsTER AT WAR, BY tit:NI:IIAL COUNT sOCIIAM.
" Torckbi ;0,.% 1.
MONSEIONEVn—When I arriyed at the army of
Portugal to take the command of it, it occupied
cantonments between the right bank of the Ebro
and Breviesca.—Wishing to Force the enemy to raise
the siege of Burgos, whiCh the English army covered,
I ordered the army to unite, preparatory to advancing?
On tire 18th October, it pup itself in motion, and was
followed by a corps of infantry and cavalry, belong-
ing to the' Army of the North, under the orders of
General CaTirelli. head-quarters were esta-
blished at 13reyiesca. The advanced guard of the
aptly occupied the villages of Quentanovedes and
Santa Ololla, which the enemy had been forced to
evacuate, and we took a good number of prisoners
from him.
Here follows a detail, not materially differing from
the Marquis of Wellington's account. It concludes
thus—

44 The loss of the enemy in these different com-
bats is ;000 prisoners, all English or Portuguese ; a
great parr of them cavalry. lu ibis number we i
reckon a Colonel, a Major, two Lieutenant-Cplonels,
and twenty-five Officers.
" The English army has lost 600 hotse3. Its loss
in killed and wounded inay, without exaggeration,
I:te estimated at 2,500 men.—The Spanish Genetal)l
Alava, has been dangerously wounded.—Our loss
amounts to 300 men, killed or wounded."
[Here follows an eulogium on Generals Clause],
caffarelli, and otl:er Officers].
f 4 Your Excellency will remark, that Lord Wel- I
lington, in his retreat from Burgos, has made,doy
marches thrice as tong as dip Ant y of PorturA • did,
'when it retreated from Salamanca to the 6: st said
city. The truth is, that the English have never
rested at the positions which were indicated to them
On their march. They have always been forced in
their positions, and were obliged to gp to bed three
or four leagues 1-n1;11er-off.
46 It results frcm t►he acknowledgments of the Eng- ,
lish themselves, that during the siege of the fort .t)ht
Burgos, they had 2,.400 Alen rendered unfit for ser-
vice, which makes the total lop of the English army,
in their expedition against Burgos, amount to 7,000
itlen, and 600 horses.
44 Annexed I have given a paiticular Tepo►t of the
Pfficers who have particularly distingu►shed them-
•'elves in the different combats which have taken place
daring the march of ti.e army, and until its arrival
on the Douro.
" I most particularly demand of your I:xcellency
the rank of General if Brigade for Colonel Shee, and
the cross of the Legion of Honour for Captain Huz,
pf the Engineers, attached to my division, and for
;fly Aide-de-Camp, Captain Dumas."

" 1 have the honour to address to your Excellency
the report of the Siege of Burgos, which has been
transmitted to me by General llubrcton. I add col
it a statement of the Officers, Subaltern Officers,l
and soldiers, who ;host pirticularly distinguished I
themselves, and whom I conceive deserving ot his
Majesty, I invoke for them all the solicitude of your
Excellency.
" From the first days of the siege the garrison
found itself expoied m one of the most fearful of
wants, that of water, It had no shelter l the I;4d

sopported every thing with a firmness and pa-
tience of which Ohe Officea set it 'an example ;—but
it IS especially to tl,e gicat zeal of Generil Diihreton
at that constancy in the defence which has been
exhibited •is due.
." Major St. Hilaire, who performed the functions
of Chief of the Staff, perfectly well, seconded Gene-
ral Dubretoo ;as did also {'loot, Chief Of the
Battalion of Artillery. The latter multiplied the
;means of defence, and created new anes-7—he was
every where, at ad times and at•every moment. He
conducted himself perfectly well, and I inlicit for •
him the favour of your Excel ency, I most also gives
a par) of the well-merited praise to M. llehon, Can
Lain of Engineers, whp constructed die place. The
artillery, commanded by M. Maerciy, Captain of the
7th regiment, H C;IIIVIllely well served, and did
purch damage to the enemy. It has proved that
the good disposition of the atmy is still preserved,
and clistrlays itself. in a splendid spanner cox difficult
occasions.
44 M. Fondousse, Colonel. of the 34:h regimept,
.M. Pontenay, chief of the battalion of the 130th,
lrehavtd as the chiefs of corps ought to do ; the for-
mer, especially, is a distinguished officer, Tbe second
Company of pioneers, commanded by Captain Nou-
ailles, has conducted itself perftctly well.
" What was found in the fort of the Paris guard
has been attached tp the service of the artillery.—
This small troop of excellent solditrs, who have con-
stantly given proofs of their good Condact, merits
particular mention.

EXTRACT OE 4OURNAI. OF THE OPERATIONS OF
DEFENCE OF THE FORT OF runi.A)s.

• 1' September 18, 1812.
14 The French .army, under the orders of General
Clause), which was encamped on the 17th before
Burgcs, began its march on the 18th to continue its I
retreat ; the enemy having follow& 4 this movement, !
the fort was surrounded. The garrison was °petiole,' i
in forming barracks in the different exterior works, it
had begun the demolition of the hpuses adjoining the
fort, equally with a view to prevent the enemy from
pbt,iining advantageous positions, as to procure ma-
terials ; but the enemy having occupied the to% n
with Sharpshooters, this work could not be contiaticd,
Iv) that the garrison is without shelter, and under the
necessity of bivouacking.
41 The fort not being in a state of siege, the gar-
Xison has beer; employed in constructing the ii oat
pressing works, to put it in a state detente. Pon
§i. Mi4o Ilias been armed, the imperfect 41.. ate otrt

was such, that it.could not be toted to defelld
against a nuitunous and enterprising enemy.'
o To obseryp his movements, we blast it small
rcd,tn, upon the pelt point of the work of Strfitlictiael,l
for the purpose of keeping a small post thert, which
should be able to keep the enemy away from eoverf
that favoured his march on this work, and even allow
him to apino+ch the salient angle of the left demi.
bastion, at ten toises, without being seen., A similar
redan has been begun with the same objcetkin.advance
of the work.

These two posts have been occupied by the
company of grenadiers of the 130th regiment.
64 The palisading of the gorge of the work of St.
Michael not being finished, it has been cootilimed.
a We began Fo coyer the doors of the powder
magazine.
46 The garrison has attempted to form same steel,
ter upon the ground'•that each corps is to defend.
The batteries of Von de la Blanca have been
put in condition ; some works have been constructed
; to cover the artillery-men, as well as the sally-gates,
which are extremely great. These works are form-
led, in default of other materials, with biscuit barrels,
filled swith earth.

The batteries of the lower enclosures have fired
upon the reconnoitring parties of the enemy.—[Here
follow long details of the events which took place on
the 19th, 20th, and 21st.]
" 22d Da y—Grcat movements have been perceived
among the enemy's troops in the vicinity Ot thefort,
The enemy has brought transports of gabions and
fascines. He has continued with great activity to
complete his communications, both in the interior
and on the right branch of the works of St, Michael.
He has fortified the curtain of the hornwork with a
fresh twelve-pounder, to carry to a further distance
than the rest of this battery. The enemy's works
114vc been retarded by a vigorous fire from the bat-
wry Napoleon, and of all those in front of the attack.
We have commenced a small. communication with
the chuich de la Blanca.
44 Night between the 224 and 234.—At eleven
P.M. the enemy fell on the entrenched camp with
ladders and a numerous body of troops, intending to
take it by main force. He undertook this enterprise
in two columns; the one on the side of the town, and
the seooad by the front of the road of St. Andero.—
This last made the assault with resolution, and was
vigorously received by five companies of the 2d bat-
talion of the 3 tth regiment of the line. Ihe first as-
sailants penetrated into the parapet, but were over-
thrown, and the rest put to flight, partly the fire of
musketry, and partly' by loaded obusses, which were
set on fire; and thrown into the ditch. The column
which attacked on the town side was received with
the same vigour, and could not descend the counter-
scarp. The enemy retired into the next houses, from
whence he kept up a very brisk fire on all the points
rlr

whence they had sallied out. nose who attaupted
to salt; dtc point of the second enclosure with lad,
ders,wereetceived with the same vigour, which caused
then; lilwwise to miscarry.
f‘ It Atas solely at the attack of the• breach where
the enemy placed his best troops, that he was for a
moment successful, as nth only that of the second
enclosnie was carried, but the enemy motmted ,
through it, into the body i the place, into which a i
number of English had already penetrated. Never-
theless, the battle soon took another face, and the
enemy VAS overthrown, with cries of Long live the
:Ettoeror I" after having seen massacred in the breach,
and the interior, the bravest of those who had pene-
trated there,
$, Among the officers killed and left in the hreach,
was found an Hanoverian Major.—Our loss consist-
ed in 41 men, of whom 1 I were killed. The action
continued abotit an hour."
[Here follow some unimportent details to the 22d].
22c1 Pay.--About half- an hour before day-
break, an explosion was heard_ from the enemy's
works at Fort St. Michael. The fire of muske-
try having ceased at nearly the same time, at the
different pints of attack, it was discovered at day.
bleak that he had evacuated them, and that he had
set fire to the arsenals of the city, where a great num-
ber of articles had been lett since the retreat of the
army. Two companies ot selected men were imme,
diatel:y sentinto the town, with a detachment of pio-
neers, to stop the flames, in which they sqcceeded by
sacrificing one wing of the building, and made a few
prisoners.
66 At ten o'clock the head of the French van-guard
appeared in Villa Frias, and at eleven it was recogni.
zed, and entered the city.
" This is a faithful narrative of the eyents which
took place during the siege, which lasted 35 days,
during which time the enemy sprung tour mines,
made four breaches, as much through that means as
by his cannon, and made five assaults, in only one of
which he wa.; successful.
The loss of the enemy has been upwards of 2000
men ; ours, in killed and wounded, consists of 16 offi-
cers, 607 sub-officers and soldiers; of the latter 304
men have been killed or are dead of their wounds.
