Joanna -Goff:was tried for the murder of William
Sweatman, in the parish of Holy Rood, in the town.
and county of Southampton, from whence she had
been removed by Habeas Corpus. This was a most
extraordinary case. Sweatman, a shoemaker in
Southampton, was found in his own bed-room with
his throat cut and several wounds in his body;. but
there Were circumstances in evidence of a conflicting
nature, so as to render it doubtful, whether he had
himself inflicted these wounds in a fit of insanity or
had been murdered by another hand. ft at length
appeared, either that the prisoner (a girl of 20 and a
stranger in Southampton) must have Committed the
murder, or that Sweatman must have killed himself
in her presence ; and, under these circumstances, the
Jury found her guilty. During the whole trial the
prisoner appeared firm and undaunted. When the
verdict was given, she did not change countenance :
--and even when sentence was passed she curtsied to
the Judge, and retired from the bar -apparently una-
gitated.

bitant. The plaintiff in a passion tore the bill, and

him to this sum. The Jury, however, gave £3

determined to proceed, was informed that he was
addressed by the &maim. <4 Let him spaii then to

A young lady, about seventeen years of age, who
has lately come to a handsome fortune, eloped on Sa-

young man about the same age, the son of a farmer.

IT has been too freqiiendy'the subject of just and
general reprobation," that men destitute of the elements of
the medical art have offered themselves as candidates fur public
patronage in the profession of Physic. For the purpose of defog
justice to the result of our studies and experienct, and to prevent
lif &dm being classed among those empirics whose impudent pre.
Wiltintt have, unfortunately for society, been too favourably re-
ceived, we beg leave to submit to the liberal and enlightened, a
faithful statement of our pursuits and acquirements.
After having received a regular medical education, as the pupils
of Messrs. Grinds,' and Blizard, whose lectures a,;d practice we
. carefully attonded,as Profession-and Surgeons of the London Hos-
pital, we entered ourselves U students in that justly celebrated
school for medical acquirements, the Rayal College of Edin-
burgh, and Were instructed la the diffetent .branches of Anatomy,
Surgery, the Theory and Practice of Physic, 'Chemistry, Mid-
wifery, Botany, Etc. &c. &e. by those eminent hirofessoes, Drs.
Monro, Gregory, nick, Hamiltpo, IPtomaa, and it uthrtford.
We trust we shall not be deemed presomptuou in saying, that
our proficiency and acredrensests are not locuisiderable. Having
for a long utter of-years made VENEREAL COMPLAINTS,
i and the various diseases of PIidIILITY, the particular object or
. our stpdies and practice,it will, we hope, beollowed that wehrte
acquired superior knowledge of their treatment and care. la
slight and recent cases of infection, a perfect re-establishment it
completed in the short period of two days, and in these of the
utmost inveteracy, where other practitioners have failed of ac-
cess, aproper perseverance in our plan of treatment merest° the
patient i safe And radical cure. .
Aildst the melancholy variety df disorders. Which are the ef-
' feels of a habit long and most unhappily Putiued by the youth of
both sexes, there are none more alarming ormore disarming thaw
those deficiencies and debilities whicfi frequently prevent or em-
bitter the matrimonial state. To sUch.persons it must be a con.
soling reflection to know that they may now, by a new and infal-
lible mode of treatment, be restored to tbat greatest of all herniae
blessings, a strong ,manly, and vigorous constitetion. la all cases
of debility; from whatever cause arising, as well as in every spe-
cies of Venereal infection, we may be consulted by patients of
either sex with the greatest secrecy and honour. Hours of con-
sultation at home from- ten to three, and from sax in the evening
tirl ten at night.
'Patients in the country hre requested to state the particulars of
their case, age, and general habit of living, Ste. inclosing a rem:t-
rance for advice and medicines, when the same will be given or
eent to any part of the kingdom. To ensure that'secrecy so e -
sential to our undertating, the postageof letters may be added to

BY tilt/ MAJESTY'SJRO.4L LETTERS PATENT.
I EAKE's Genuine. PILLS, so justly famous for
their superior efficacy-in curing every degree and symptom
of the Venereal Disease,the Scurvy, &c. without confinement or
restraint of diet, im an easy, expeditious, safe, and secret man-
net. One small tasteless Pill is a dose, its operation inapercep-
, tible, and requiring no particular attention.
In 15 days they generally cure those
_cruel Disordeni ; and
where they fail in that time of perfectly restoring health, the pa-
tient has the lialipy assurance that he or she is at the eve of being
so restored, let the degree of malignancy be ever so great.
It is an excellency pectiliar to these Pills, to make directly to
the eemplaining pat, and enter into contest with the offending
inner, which they speedily dislodge and expel. They are decla-
red by experience toe a preserver of health, as mil as a resto-
re4by taking only eight single Pills. Spring and fall inevery year,
bilhorX, the Patentee has this extraordinary obligation to then,
tint !shatever. he promised himself from them, they were sure re
Ngond exceed. as though impatient of immortal and universe/
salbe., These Pins are most worthy a plate in the cabinets of
brifiiers and Captain: of Ships.; the more so, for that they will
ttiff good in all enniatei any length of time, and that they have
Dovelscirne the test ofpear ha years, with increasing credit to
themselves, and honour to their author, btecnnuch that during the
last eight years they have radically cured upwards of 40,000 per-
sons, many of whom had been discharged from Hospitals where
salivation bad been frequently repeated, and all other method* .
made use of without effect.
