Donna et placens trzor.--Hou.
Thy house, and (in the cup of life,
That honey-drop) thy pleasing wife.
SOCRATES, by his discourse on Marriage, so en-
raptured his auditors with the subject, that the married
men flew to theirwives, and the bachelors hastened to be wedded;
and" The Spectator" has affirmed, that the word " wife" is the
most agreeable and delightful name in nature.
The sacred institution, then, of marriage, compasses the de-
sideratum of our enjoyment; teeming not only with happiness
on earth, but disposing the soul itself to harmonize with bliss
hereafter.

Previous, however, to entering into thir hallowed obligation,
it becomes an imperative duty, not only to regulate the passions,
hut to cleanse the grosser nature from thq;e impurities which
the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it.
To the neglect of such attention are attributable many of these
hapless instances, which, white" they excite the commiseration
of the beholder, should also impress him with the fear of self.
reproach.
Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in thli
tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the
natural dignity into a state of inanition, front whence the ago-
nized sufferer more than doubts the chance of relief. To ail
such, then, we address ourselves, offering hope—energy—mus-
cular strength—felicity ; nor will our advances appear question.
able, sanctioned as they are by the multiplied proofs of twenty
years successful experience.
The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the
suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial
wreath—for the lismale habit is often constitutionally weak—
yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy improved into
functional power.
In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every re-
laxation of the generative economy, we pledge our ability to
cure speedily, and with effect. is solicitous to expel the
unfeeling empyric front the position so presumptuously taken
up, we deviate from general principles with lees hesitation; and
confident in our own honourable integrity as Alembez sof the
College of Surgeons, we refer tke suffering community ut either
sex (especially those entering into matrimoni.l life) at once to
our house, where daily attendance is given ft.r personal con-
sultation; and letters from the country are immediately an-

TRE following is a COPY of the PETITION of
the VESTRYMEN and the DIRECTORS and GUAR-
DIANS of the POOR of ST. NI A RY-LA-BONNE, precented
to the House of Commons in favour of Mr. Sc.iaLart's Bill to
Amend the Poor Laws:

SUEWETR,
That the Parish of St. Mary-la-bonne contains a population
of upwards of eigh'y thousand persons, and your I'etitioners are of
opinion, from the experience they have had in the ntanag .mcnt
of the concerns of the Poor in such an extensive and populous
Parish, that the present system of l' :or Laws is heanne a terry great
and alarming grievance to the Country at large, and•that a Law
according to the principle of the proposed Dill will be productive
of the greatest benefit to the Community.
And they further humbly submit, that if the expenditure of
the COUNTY 'tarts, which have been 'yearly increasing to an
enormous extent, were properly controuled, it would also aid
and assist in reducing the amount of the Poots' Rate throughout
the Kingdom.

They therefore humbly tray that the principle of tht 13111
may be carried into effect.

THE GENUINE SYRUP OF DE VELNOS.

'HE only Depot for this useful Medicine, is N 0.52,
Brner's-street, Oxford-street, where it is prepared accord-
ing to the Recipe of the late Mr. SWAINSO)I, intrusted to his Ne-
phew and Successor, Ml.Tuomas CA1411.414 alone. The experience
of nearly a century, has proved this Medicine wise the most inno-
cent and effectual alterative. It corrects and purifieu the blood;
and those who are afflicted with Scrofula, Leprosy, Scurvy. and
many of those melancholy diseases arising from impurity of the
blood and juices; those whO suffer front diseased liver, and for
the dissipations and indiscretions of their youth, or whose con-
stitutions are broken down and debilitated by mercurial, anti-
monis!, or arsenic medicines, should submit to a regular course
of the Vegetable Syrup.
The effects of this Medicine are such as not to interrupt either
bodiless nr pleasure; it operates on the animal juices, and re-
quires only the common restraint of moderation in diet. It is
dissolved in the chyle of the stomach, i, conveyed by the circu-
lating fluids, and corrects their tendency to all those diseases
which originate in vitiated blood. It is a safe, though a power-
ful substitute for mercury, and removes those evils which an
unsuccessful use of that mineral occasions.
It is prepared and administered in Berner's-street, under Mr.
Canham's immediate direction, where it is sold at 13s. a bottle ;
it is also sold at Mr. Atkinson's, 196, Bishopagate-street Without ;
and by Mr. Canharn's,gther Agents in London, and in every con-
siderable Town in the United Kingdom; and the Concentrated, for
warm climates, by his deputed Agents in the lint Indies, viz.

vocal talent of the country had assembled to delight
the company, which was increased by the arrival of
upwards of one hundred persons of distinction, to:
attend this musical treat. The concert was directed

PHENS, Mrs. SALMON,' Madame CAMPORESE,.
Aslse, and the Misses AsIIE, who sang a sweet Ter-
zetto ; MiSS GOODALL, Miss WILSON, Mr: BASAHANI,

tion than the others, it was Add Robin Gray, by
Miss STEPHENS; a Ballad, by BRAHAM; and Sweet
Echo, by Miss Asne, accompanied by her father on
the flute. The Ballet consisted of the principal
dancers from the Opera, with an appropriate band,
led by MORI.

mansion were thrown open, and splendidly illumi-
nated, and refreshments of every sort were served in
abundance. The Fete concluded with a most ele-
gant supper, consisting of every delicacy of the sea-
son; and the honours of the evening were done with
an ease and grace peculiar to Mrs. Courrs. Mr.
CourTs appeared to be in most excellent health and
spirits during the whole of the evening, csmversing
with every one who had gratified him with their
company.

LA VALE fTE.

The return of this individual to that country on the
soil of which he was condemned but six years since
to shed his blood under the axe of the law, is one of
the many examples which history offers in the in-
terests of humanity, to check the indulgence of vin-
dictive passions in moments of political anarchy, and
allow time for the restoration of the empire of justice
under the auspices of truth and mercy.

Monsieur LAVALETTE was charged with the crime
of high treason for resuming his functions as Post-
master-General immediately after the departure of
the KING from Paris, and before BONAPARTE had en-
tered Paris to re-invest him with that appointment.
This was the charge on which he was tried; but
the true motive of his prosecution was a belief that
he had conducted a correspondence with the island
'of Elba, and encouraged the return of his former
Sovereign—his benefactor, and relation by mar►iage.
Monsieur LAVALETTE, when placed on the pro-
scription list, was offered by Fouclut a passport to
quit the French territory. He refused to accept it ;1
and confiding in his innocence, and further protected
by the Convention of Paris, he voluntarily presented
himself as a prisoner to the constituted Authorities:l
but it was not till the renewal of his application that
the gates of the Conciergerie closed on him. He was
tried, condemned, and ordered for execution.

The subsequent transactions which effected his re-
lease a few hours before the consummation of the sen-
tence, and secured ultimately his escape from France,
are well known.

Madame LA VALETTE, however, became the •ictim
of her generous devotion : she had, to save her hus-
band, !bell from a bed in which she had endured the
affliction of losing by miscarriage an only son. This
effort, and the anxieties of her mind, followed by a
long confinement, impaired her health, and produced
alienation of her mental faculties.

Touched by these misfortunes, and convinced, no
doubt, of the innocence of Monsieur LAVALETTE, the
KING, about a year since, signed the act of grace
which cancelled the former proceedings, and re-esta-
blished Monsieur LAVA LETTE in all his rights as a
French citizen.

It was not, however, till a few days since that a
passport for his return to France was granted. Pre-
vious to his departure from Augsburg, Monsieur LA-
VALETTE considered it to be his duty to publish the
following Declaration, to the asseverations of which
all those who know the private vistues of Monsieur
LAVALETTE will net hesitate to give implicit cre-
dence, and to which only the most ungenerous poli-
tical enemy (for Monsieur LAVALETTE never had
a personal one) can refuse his confidence :

jesty.—He immediately appeared upon the floor; but
Mr. Justice HOLROYD being obliged to leave the
Court to attend Chambers, at two o'clock, the case
was ordered to stand over to a future day.

COURT OF EXCISE, NOrEMBER 21.

Mr. J. Donadieu, a grocer, was charged, upon in-
formation, with having manufactured stone-blue and
Queen's blue, from pipe-clay, flour, meal, and other
ai tides than starch, and such materials as are neces-
sary as colouring, whereby he had incurred the
penalty of 1.:100.
William Dur,ey, an Excise-officer, stated that, on
the 6th of June last, he went to a house, N 0.4, Corn-
court,Whitechapel, in company with a brother officer.
They there discovered a complete manufactory for
stone-blue, where they seized two hundred weight
and two jars of materials for compounding an article
to resemble stone-blue. The principal ingredient of
which was pipe-clay ; there was but a very small pro-
portion of starch.
The SOLICITOR for the defendant made a most in-
genious defence in his behalf, in which he admitted
that some of the materials were improper. He had
purchased the principal article, called British Smalt,
from a man who had absconded, for a bad debt. He
deprecated the infliction of any heavy penalties on
his client, who was now under a commission of bank-
ruptcy, and was aged and infirm.
The COURT, in pronouncing judgment, expressed
their fears that the system, which was fraudulent to-
wards the consumers who gave five shillings for an'
1 article that was not worth two, as well as most in-
jurious to the trade, had been carried on most exten-
sively. It must, however, be understood, that the
Act could not be evaded by introducing spurious
materials as colouring, and that no more of the latter
article than was strictly necessary would be allowed.
Under the circumstances of this case, however, they

_ .
merely convicted the defendant in the mitigated pe-
nalty of £5, but condemned the whole of the appa-
ratus and goods found in the manufactory.

Yesterday afternoon, the servant of Mr. T. WHITE,
of Castle-street, Holborn, imprudently left the street-
door open whilst she went on an errand, and, during
her short absence, some villains entered the parlour,
and stole from thence a portable writing desk with
valuable contents, and several books, with which they
got clear off before the return of the maid-servant.
The scheme of converting the prison at Dartmoor
into an asylum for the London pauper children, is
we are told, altogether abandoned.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF CHANCERY, AUGUST 6.
THE HON. NEWTON PELLOWES V. THE EARL OF PORTS.

MOUTH AND OTHERS. ' •
.The LORD CHANCELLOR this morning called on
Mr. Hart to mention this case, which our Readers
will recollect was stated in the STAR of Wednes-

day last.
• Mr. HART intimated that he had not -at present
any further general considerations or arguments to
submit to the Court, but he understood that a letter
had been written by Mr. Justice Best, and addressed
to the plaintiff, in which that Learned Judge ex-
pressed an opinion that the appointment of a general
receiver had become necessary, in order to save the

trust estates from ruin.
Mr. TRESLOVE remarked, that Mr. Justice Best did
not consider himself to be acting as a trustee: his
appointment had taken place subsequently to the
original execution of the deed, by which Lord Ports-
mouth, on his first marriage with. Miss Norton, the
daughter of Lord Grantley, had made over his
paternal estates to the whole and sole controul and
management of fOur trustees.
The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that the first
material question in-the case appeared to be, whe-
ther the trust-deed on Lord Portsmouth's marriage
was still legally valid, or whether it expired at the
death of the first Lady Portsmouth ? They were all
acquainted with the peculiar circumstances in the
Noble Lord's situation ; but no considerations relative
to a commission of lunacy would induce the Court
to set aside a deed by which a party had knowingly
and voluntarily thought proper to fetter himself.—
He wished to see Lord Portsmouth's bill in the course
6f that day, and, after reading it, he might be ena-
bled to draw up some special order which should
have the effect of compelling the trustees to adopt
a different course of proceeding. Whatever had been
the conduct of Mr. Hanson, the Court would cer-
tainly not allow the present system of management
to continue. It was probable, indeed, that the case
might be again mentioned to-morrow.

be enjoying as good health as possible. At ten o'clock
the yacht was illuminated, which had a most pleasing
effect. At five this morning the squadron got under

from the eastward, but were still in sight at noon,
The wind, however, has since increased, and they
have proceeded down Channel.

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

LIMA, FEBRUAItY 9.

After all the sacrifices we have made to repel the
invaders, San Martin and Cochrane, with the flatter-
ing hope that we should be assisted by the mother
country (at least with ships) we fear that our Govern-
ment is inattentive to our critical situation; and that
the contest will terminate in our ruin. If it has been
thus neglectful—if it has remained deaf to our cries;
and, finally, if it has not sent a naval force with able
Officers, it is a' proof that it desires we should sinki
and be the victims of our enemies ; or that it does
not care about preserving these delicious countries.
On our coast there are ships of war of all nations
except Spanish ; and some Americans believe the
Govvnnictit is for leaving them independent ; in this
notion, if the volcano bursts foith, no ships, no human
force will be able to subdue them. Ships immedi-
diately, unless the American provinces in the South,
and in the sequel those in the Ncirth, are to be re-
nounced, &c. &c. No imputation can be made on
the fidelity of those heroic inhabitants, who, without
exception, have ruined themselves in the defence of
the national cause. Their riches have melted away,
and our constancy will fail it we are abandoned. We
are, and we wi.h to be, Spaniards; but we are in
need of succours ; and we hope that our cries, which
ascend to HEAVEN, will not remain unheard.
STOCKHOLM, JUNE co: •

An hour before his Majesty set out for Norway,
he received the news of the death of Napoleon. His
Majesty immediately communicated it to the Crown
Prince. On the same day very satisfactory accounts
were received from Christiana. The Stot thing seems
to place just confidence in the King's views, and
to be ready to co-operate in accomplishing everything
that is to be reconciled to the principles of the Cons.i.u-
lion. The Assembly hasaccordingly adopted the prin.
ciple of indemnifying the Nobility, as recommended
by his Majesty's last Message. But with iespect to
the creation of a new Nobility in Norway, mentioned
in the second part of the same Message, the Storthing
very respectfully, but very earnestly, requests his
Majesty not to revert to a resolution taken by the
Assembly in conformity with the Constitution, and
in due form.

her hand, which was covered with her white hand.
kerchief. Addressing the Magistrate, she said, that
once she could boast of wealth, and superior situa.,
tion in society; but in consequence of some design.
ing friends unjustly gaining possession of her pro..
perty, which was considerable, and refusing to de,
liver it up to her, she considered herself most grossly
abused. She referred to several passages in the
Scriptures, which she held in her hand, and read
them to the Magistrate, who listened with greatrpa,
tience, to convince him that, « according to the pro.
phets," she was entitled to her property, which was
unjustly detained from her, and requested his Wor.
ship's interposition. Being informed that such a case
did not fall under the cognizance of that Court, it
seemed to offend her, and she intimated that she
could compel them to interfere, and even in the event
of their refusal, his Majesty would instantly recover
her property, on being applied to. It was not until
an officer told her that her case required three M.
gistrates, that she could be prevailed upon to quit
the Office.

Information being received that gangs of robberi
nightly infested •.he Harrow-road, and parts lead;ral
thereto, Humphries, with a party of officers of Pair-
dington, proceeded, on Saturday night, about twelve
o'clock, to watch their manoeuvres. On the arrival
of the officers in the I farrow-road, they met a f
midahle gang of desperate thieves. The officers suc-
ceeded in apprehending four of the party, the others
decamped with all possible speed. The prisoners
were taken to the Watch-house, but the officers in
endeavouring to unlock the door, found the key-hole
stuffed with stones and gravel, and the inside de-
stroyed' to prevent the do:a- being (Toned. They
were, however, locked up and searched, when several
knives were found on them, but nothing to lead to
the discovery of any depredation they might have
committed. —Humphries received two anonymoun
letters. swearing vengeance against him, and threat-
ening his life. The parties in ctv.texiy were taken
before a Magistrate, and held to bail.

VIENNA, JULY 22.

There sailed on the 30th of June, two ships of the
line and a frigate, to join•the squadron of the Dar-
danelles. Cara-Ali, who has been hitherto only At'.
miral of the port of Constantinople, has received the
command in chief of the entire maritime force.

It is said that Mehemet-Ali, I'acha of Egypt, who
has placed at the disposal of the Grand Seigs i w a
corps of 10,000 well-armed soldiers, has likewise sent
several ships of war against those of the enemy, and
has taken or destroyed asonsiderable number.

In the Mores, the Turks are confined within the
fortresses, while the Insurgents remain masters of the
open country.

The following news has been received from Wal-
lachia and Moldavia:
In the evening of the lth of July, the Kiajas,
Bey of Hadschi-Alimer-Pacha, at the hrad of be-
tween 6000 and 7000 men, entered Bucharest. This
Commandant exerts himself to preserve among his
troops the hest discipline: i.e punishes with death
pfilabe and murder. The news received from the
open couatry at some distance, is unfortunately not
so favour a'3le in this respect. Banditti and marauders,
without restraint, indulge in the greatest excesses.
• To the different misfortunes to which Moldavia
has been a prey since the month of February, there
was added on the sth a frightful scourge. By letters
from Bucharest, it appears that there arose about
nine o'clock in the evening, a terrible hurricane, ac-
companied with hailstones of the size of a nut. It
lasted for half an hour ; the buildings and churches
most exposed to the fury of the wind were either un-
roofed or overthrown, or had all their windows broken.
• In Jassy, '2OO or nOO Turks have been stationed
to protect the' peace of the city : the other troops are
stationed without the walls."
AUGSBURG, JULY 26.

According to the letters from the frontiers of Mol-
davia, it appears that in the engagements between
the'Greek Army and the Turks, the Arnauts, Walla-
cliians, and Molclavians took flight at the first ap-
proach of the Mussulmans, but the Hetarists fought
with bravery till they were reduced to a handful
of men.
The Turks published at Jassy a notice, in which
. .

they invite all the friends 01 the Sublime Porte, whe-
ther Franks, Moldavians, Boyards, Priests, or Mer-
chants, to return to that capital, but few individuals
obey the invitation ; for the expression " friends of
the Forte" is equivocal, and admits the right of
puiti.hing those who should not be declared so.
