IMPROVED HYDROMETERS.

THE late improvements in the Hydrometer (by
reducing the number of Wei*zs, front upwards of Forty
to Two only, for Government strengths) renders it so very sim-
rik and easy in its use, as to prevent the possibility of error.—
Ile Instrument, by being made of hard metal in lieu of soft cop.
per, is neither liable to injury nor wear in using, by which means
the expence of frequent adjustnient, and the errors and 4sputes
camioned by incorrect instruments are avoided.
The new Hydrometers, with plain directions, are made and

BANDANA SOAP; or, INDIAN WASHING CAKES.
•
UTHITE HANDS have ever been esteemed a
personal beauty in both Sexes, and in some parts of Europe
are essential to persons 'of rank. The BANDANA SOAP, or
Indian Washing Cakes, possess the peculiar property of giving
the mast exquisite delicacy of texture and inconceivable fairness
to the hands which are constantly washed with this Soap. Even
in cases where the skin has been injured by labour or other vio-
lence, the hardness and coarseness are effectually, infallibly, and
permanently removed, and succeeded by a smoothness, fairness,
and delicacy of appearance, which cannot be acquired by any
othe means whatever. It is by experience only that any One can
form an adequate idea of the superior excellence of this Soap,
Sold by the Proprietor's Agent, whose signature it bears/Wil-
liam Withers, No. 9.29, Strand, near Temple-Bar, London; and
the Proprietors, as a further security, beg earn to be particular in
smiting, that the name and address of the Printer E. Spragg,
N 0.21, Bow-street, Covent-garden, is affixed to the label and
*rapper. All others are counterfeits. Sold by many respectable
Perfumers and Medicine Venders in Town and Country, price
each cake.. But it is at all times netessary to be particular in
;observing the above caution, which will be the means of prevent-
%i the impositions which have of late been practised.

HEALTH AND LONGEVITY.
DR. JAMES'S ANALEPTIC PILLS, which
were contrived by the Inventor as a remedy for himself,
*l4 which preserved him to an advanced age, are admirably cal-
*dated for rheamatisms, colas, and all those complaints to which
the human frame is liable from the vicissitudes of our climate-,
likewise Inc bilious and all other disorders of the stomach and
tuwels, and for head-aches, occasioned by indizertion, •r by free
living.
Sold only by F. Newbery and Sons, at the Warehouse for Dr.

Newbery, 1,:0.4Z,5.t. Paul's," engraved hi the stamp:
A true iudgment will be formed of the pretensions of a man
who offers Dr. James's Pills fur sale, when it is known that
was a mere labourer in the Doctor's garden, and totally ignorant
et the principal ingredient in Dr. James's Powder, of which he
had the audacity to advertise himself as " the original and only
preparer;" though it is proved that this mielicine seas aerially
prepared and sold betiire he was born, and that he never was em-
liked in arty part of the process.

GRAVEL, STONE, AND LUMBAGO.
HICKMAN's PILLS is an effectual Cure for the
Gravel and Stone, stoppage of Urine, Complaints in the
Zack and Loins, Kidneys, and Bladder, Lumbago, &c.
Of the various complaints incident to the human frame, there
arenorie more dreadful in their nature, nor more alarming in
their consequences, than the Gravel and Stone. They are corn-
plants to which every person, even the most alk4tentious, is
liable, as the air we breathe and the water we drink are impreg-
nated with particles which not only cause these excruciating tor-
tures, but area foundhtion for every ocher species of disorder.
rlicsma N's Original Pitts, composed of the most innocent in-
gredients, hale been found of singular efficacy, in not only
gtrel,gtlieuing the vessels containing the urine, but happily de-
sStoying the petrifying quality of it. from which proceed the
loove complaints, &c. removing the calculi, or grin cbncrations,
and banishing every pernicious tendency to those disorders, with-
et confinement.

" We Charles the Xlllth, &c. makelnown ;
Whereas, in order to-maintain our relations with the
Emperor of the French, &c. we have been induced to
declare war, and to break Off all commerce and other
communication between our kingdom and Great Bri-
tain. and Ireland ; we do hereby order and enjoin,
that in case any English vessel or vessels should be at
present in any of the ports of our kingdom, such shall
immediately be detained. And, with a. due obser-
vance of whatever has been enacted in the Decrees al-

ready issued in this: respect, we do order, that. without
exception, no vessel coming front Great Britain, her
colonies, and the states tinder her immediate Govern-
tnent, or carrying goods of the produce-or manufac-
ture of, or belonging to, the Crown of aiiirßritain
and her subjects, shall, under the
,severest responsibi-
lity, be permitted to enter any 'Swedish ports.
" And, conformably to the measures adopted in
other States on the Continent against the importation.
of English colonial goods, we'.are pleased to order,
that such goOds must not, from . any place in our
kingdom, after this Decree, shall have been (fitly made
known, be exported to forein places on the Continent.
n Accordingly, and as the stock of colonial goods
now in the kingdom is sufficient for some time fir the
want of our subjects, we have thought it necessary to
prohibit all importation into the kingdom of such
goods, of whatever origin the same may be, or unda
whatever flag they may arrive.
" And, therefore, after the publication of this
Decree, no vessel whatever, laden with colonial goods,
shell be permitted to put into any Swedish harbour.—
For the rest we shall separately order a careful inves-
tigation to be made, in order to ascertain v.hethn., and
to what extent, English, or colonial goods, after the
,23c1 of April, have, under any flag whatever, been im-
ported into the Kingdom; and we will then order how,
and in what manner, the said goods shall be legally
disposed of. And all our officers and servants, supe-

attention that what has thus been ordered, with respect
to the first and second article, be carried into execu-

STOCKHOLM, NOVEMBER 13. '
The Diet, which had been transferred to Stock-
holm for the reception of the Prince Royal, yesterday
terminated its session. The King presided at the ce-
remony, sitting on his Throne, with the Prince Royal
by his side. Among the Resolutions which have been
passed in the last Sittings of the States, one of the
most remarkable is that which declares the Ex-King,
Gustavus Adolphus, and his posterity, banished in
perpetuity from the Swedish territory, and forbidden
to enter it on pain of death. The Civil List has been
considerably diminished by the reductions which the
Diet has• made in several parts of the public expendi-
ture. Under Gustavus Adolphus, the sum allowed
for the maintenance of the King and his household,
amounted to 500,000 rix-dollars banco. It has been
reduced to 260,000. The establishment for the Prince
Royal was 60,000 crowns. It has been increased by
6000, and this sum is to suffice for the households of
both the Prince and Princess. 'the Stites have allowed
12,000 6x-dollars for Prince Oscar.

It is finally determined that he is to take up his re-
sidsnce in Montgomeryshire. Government, in pur.
suance of the resolution originally taken -respecting
him, hare sent to • Portsmouth Mr. MseecesziK, our
late Negociator for an exchange of prisoners (who
was acquainted with LUCIEN at Itome some years
ago), in order to notify to him the conditions on
which he is to enjoy an asylum and protection in this
country, and is to accompany him to his new resi-
dence. Three or four places, among others Lud- I
low, had been thought of to submit to him for his 1.
election; but on inquiry, none of them were found.
to contain a house fit and ready for the reception
of so large an establishment. This difficulty be-
ing
known, Earl POW's very politely offered, through
Government, his seat 9f .Linures, in Montgome.
shire, for his residence, which has been accepted.
It is an zncient castle, with a large parrana ample
pleasure grounds, situated in a beautiful part Of the
country, and affording every facility for the sports of
the field. .From a view of all the accommodations
which this ancient and. princely mansicn presents, it
will, no doubt, prove higlily'acceptable to a man of
Ltictstes taste; especially when he considers the hand-
some manner in which it has been offered to him.—
He is of course considered as a prisoner of war, but
is treated with the respect due to his former situation.

A New York paper of the 10th November, pre-
sents the following paragraph

66 A meeting was held last evening it the Coffee-
house, of ship owners, importers, and other snerchants,
interested in a Non-Intercourse with Great Britain ;
for the purpose.of consulting on the propriety 'Of soli-
citing information from Government relative to the
operation of Abe law alluded to in the President's
Proclamation.' After some discussion, it was con-
cluded to he inexpedient to apply to Government at
the present time."—(New rark,,Nov. 10.)

44 e are assured by a Gentleman of the first respec-
tability that letters froni Washington announced a

We have been favoured .by a most respectable mer-
cantile house with the following copy of a letter from
the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States; ;
in reply to a letter written by a merchant of New
I York, relative to the doubts existing as to the precise.
time and manner of carrying into effect the non-inter-.
course against Great .Britain and her dependencies,
!under the President's late proclamation. This dual-
meat will be duly appreciated by every merchant and
manufacturer concerned in tr ade with the United States:
" Treasury Deparrment,'Nov. 13, 1810.

• " Your letter of the 10th instant has been received.
All goods imported from the dominions of Great Bri-
tain, and arrived in the United States subsequent to the
2d of February, will, in my opinion, become forfeited
according to the provision of the law of May 1, 1810,
if Great Britain shall not, on that day, have revoked
her edicts in the manner contemplated by that act. It
follows, that if no knowledge of such revocation shall
have been obtained on that day, goods imported as
aforesaid must be seized by the Customhouse officers,
although it be also true, that if the revocations have
actually taken place before that day, no forfeiture will
have occurred, and the gocds must, in that case, be
restored, whenever the fact of such revocation is
known: The inconvenience of the detention of the
,goods in that case is understood ; but cannot, under
tbf existing law, be avoided, except and through the
intervention of the Courts, who may direct an imme-
diate Testoration of the property, on satisfactory bonds
fOr its value being given to abide the final decision of
buch-Court. I have the honour to be, respectfully, Itc.

The meaancholy subject with which the greater part
of our Paper is occupied this day, will ha read wits
feelings of general sympathy in the sufferings of the
Royal Patient. It appears that the KING'S illness
began in a gentle form on the SJ of October ; that it
contin2ed unabated dll the 25:11. when his MaJaart
himse‘constilted Sir Hv..mtv HALTOM) on the pro-
priety of taking medicine ; on the ‘2Rth he became
incapable of transacting business;: in the first week
of November his disorder was at the highest pitch to
which it has ever yet reached, or we trust, will reach ;
and continues now something worse than irwas on the
28th of October. The last of the Royal Family that
saw him was the Que.tv ; and he has likewise been
twice visited by the CIIANCULLOIt, and once by the
CIIANCJIL.LO/t of the EXCIIEQUI:R. Dr. WILLIS'S able ,
and scientific reply to the question—H What is the
distinction between mental derangement and insa-
nity ?" will afford a clear view of the nature and
state of his Maturry's disorder.
NAPOLEON has issued a Decree by which the Palace
of the Archbishop of Paris is made the residence of
the Pope. The Archbishop is to be allowed to oc-
cupy it when his Holiness is absent from the French
Capital.
Some letters from Lisbon contain a statement of
great importance. The writers awn that a Council
of War was called by Lord WELLnio.rosi, on the Ist
instant, to consider whether an immediate attack on
MAfiSENA, or the return of the army to its former po.
titian, at Torres Vedras, was most adviseable ? This
report, we doubt not, prevailed at,Lisbon about the
time the packet sailed ; and though we cannot vouch
for its truth, its existence is sufficient to add to the in-
terest which would otherwise be attached to the next
arrival from Portugal.
