SOCIETY FOR TIIE SUPPRESSION OF VICE.
Committee-Room, June, 1821.
TO those who have witnessed the late efforts of
the blasphemous and licentious press, the Society offer the
following statement:
In the midst of the alarm occasioned at the republication of
the infamous tracts of Thomas Paine, and the dissemination of
other Infidel works, this Society, by the successful prosecution
at their own expense, of Richard Carlile, presented some check
to the threatened evil.

Notwithstanding, however, the example of hie imprisonment,
the sale of many of these publications was afterwards continued
by Mrs. Cattle. She has since been convicted by the exertions
of this •Society, and is now imprisoned on the information of the
Attorney-General for a seditious libel.
To the exertions of the Society is also due the conviction of
Davison and Tyler, for the sale of similar works, and proceed.
ings-are now in progress against another publisher of blasphe-
mous libels.

To prove, however, the daring and persevering profligacy of
this class of &Unguents, the Committee have only to state, that
the same Richard Carlile, although in jail, continues to dissemi-
nate his baneful productions, and has declared his resolution of
persisting in his offence in avowed defiance of the law.
The Society, in discharge of what they conceive to be a so-
lemn duty to their country, will continue to enforce its laws
against a confederacy so hardened and abandoned. The prose-
cutions in question are, however, far more eipensive than is
generally suprosed.• and the funds of the Society have, in con-
sequence of the above proceedings, been considerably reduced.
More, they trust, nerd nut be said, to stimulate every friend
of religion and morality to contribute liberally and promptly to
the support of the objects they have in view, though they can-
not omit to notice, with particular satisfaction, a very recent and
most important conviction of an offender for an attempt to cor-
rupt the t.cholars of one of our first public seminaries, by the
sale of obscene Snuff Boxes.

By Order of the Committee,
GEORGE PRICIIARD, Secretary.

Subscriptions and Donations are received by the Treasurer,
Henry Hoare, E5q..77, Fleet-street ; and by the Secretary, Mr.
George Prichanl, ;1, Essex street, Strand.
P.S. Since the Advertisement last appeared, the Society has
instituted two other prosecutions against the dealers in blasphe-
mous publications, which renders it necessary to continue its
appeal to the Public for pecuniary aid. The general labours of
the Society are directed to stop the sale of obscene prints, snuff-
boxes, &c. and to prevent gross • and flagrant breaches of the
Sabbath. Within the last four years they have instituted no
less than one hundred and ninety-one prosecutions, all of which
have led to conviction, or to recognizances binding the respec-
tive parties against the repetition of their crimes.
• The prosecution of Davison alone cost the Society

FOR STRANGURY, DROPSY, GRAVEL. OBSTRUC-
TIONS IN THE URINARY PASSAGE, DIABETES,

AND GENERAL WEAKNESS.
JOSEPH WESSEL's JESUIT's DROPS.—In his
Majesty's Navy these Drops have for nearly 100 years past
maintained their character as a specific for the scurvy, gravel,
dropiy, strangury, weakness, and obstruction in the urinary pas-
sage, and general debility, ;—but particularly for their absolute
and speedy cure of the Venereal Disease, Weasel's Jesuit's Dropi
and Specific Itemeey, are the only safe and expeditious cure, and
are so innocent in their nature, as to require little or no restrAnt.
As a ntstoruive for general debility, Wessel's Jesuit's Drops
have been long known and esteemed ; whether the debility arises
front the too copious use of mercury, or intense heat of climate,
they are equally serviceable :--such as have the misfortune to be
troubled with weakness of the kidneys, ureter* or bladder, dia-
l): es, or difficulty of making water, will experience a complete
cute by due perseverance.
The great object to he attended to is, that purchasers should he
careful in having the true and genuine preparation, as tit( unsafe
and dangerous counterfeits attempted to be foisted on the Public,
by absolute falsehoods, are so numerous, that the proprietors re-
quest every purchaser to ask far Joseph Wessel', Jesuit's Drops.
CAtTION.—The genuine Wessel's Jesuit's Drops are inclosed
in a black stamp, not au imitation of a stamp, with the follow-
ng engra'ked thereon, " Joseph %Vessel."
