is only to be feared by cheese who are conscious of incapacity.
Impressed at an early period of our professional career with
the importance of a more minute attention to a class oi dis-
eases peculiarly affecting the grander operations of Nature, we
boldly deviated from what was held to be medical orthodoxy ;
attacked the vaunting, of empyricism, and, by defeating its vile
purposes, consiaer ourselves Justly entitled to that approbation
and patronage which, for twenty years, have rewarded our sue-
easeful nil d devoted studies. The estimation of our enlightened
brethren, who frequently appeal to our opinion, is an additioial
gratification to our pride, while our authority from the Callao,
itself,, strengthened as it is by the most enthusiastic testimonials
of almost every Professor in the British Metropolis, must ever
protect the sanctity of our fame from envy or misrepresentatior.
The impetuosity of youth, or the momentary want of caution
in the maturer man, often had to the effects of a contagious dis-
ease; happy therefore, may the early applicant be called, whose
anxiety can be alleviated by a few days care ; and even in the
more advanced stages, characterized by numerous symptoms,

A variety of official papers have been received
from Oporto, which serve to exhibit the state of the
national or revolutionary cause in a more perfect
point of view than it has been yet seen.
The Junta have published an answer to the Pro-
clamation of Count AMARANTE. It animadverts in
1.: arm terms on the motives which actuate the Count
to sow the seeds of discord among his countrymen.
And for what ?To support despots—to perpe-
tuate your misery—to force you to pay tributes
which exceed your fortunes and incomes ; taxes
which the produce of the lands, moistened with
your sweat, is not sufficient to pay. Trasmontanos !
if you would know what happiness is, and what
constitutes true love to our good and adorable So-
vereign, Don John VI, repair to Oporto. Here you
\Val meet the brother of that deluded man, Antonio
da Silveira Pinto da Fonseca, whom the true lovers
of their country call the Cato of Portugal. The son
f our hero, Sepulveda, is here, also Gil, who has
• ften tt odden with you the road to honour. Hasten
to see them, proud of having raised the majestic edi-
fice of national independence, together with the great
Cabreira, and other brave men, their brothers in
arms. nasten, soldiers."
Two other Papers, addressed to the inhabitants of
Alto Douro, are intended to do away with the ru-
mours which Count AMARANTE, and other partizans
of the Regency, have spread respecting the views of
the new Government, whom they accuse of a wish
to destroy the Oporto Vine Company. The Junta
say, that, " far from having had in view a project
so impolitic and so contrary to the interests of Porto-
gal,
.they will, on the contrary, encourage, uphold,
and seek the prosperity of the Establishment by every
means in their power, furnishing to the same all the
aids of protection which may be derived from the
authority confided to them." "If hitherto," they
add, " Commerce has carried our productions to the
Banks of the Thames, henceforth, freed from the
obstacles occasioned by an erroneous policy, these will
be distributed in both hemispheres. The Company
%Val watch more and more over your interests ; 'and
a Government, active, energetic, and patriotic, will
not fail to employ every exertion for your happiness."
A fourth document is the Dispatch from Colonel
SEPULVEDA, written from Aviero. The Colonel, it
%%ill be remembered, had been sent off from Oporto
to the interior, to spread the patriotic flame, and ani-
mate the people. Ile had met with perfect success,
the troops and people joining in the most enthusiastic
manner in every town through which he passed.—
The next day he was to proceed to Coimbra, vThither
the 22d Regiment was rapidly advancing, in aid of
the patriotic cause. This paper distinctly shows the
popularity of the Government, and leads us to believe
that the people will support the change so evidently
intended for their benefit, wherever they arc enabled
to manifest their sentiment.

The following is an extract of a letter received this
morning from Bombay, dated May 18 :—" We are
sorry to state that the cholera morbus has made its
appearance in this island, and is carrying off from
six to seven hundred persons every day : its dreadful
ravages are not confined to the natives, but the Eu-
ropeans are also falling victims to this dreadful
malady." llis Majesty's 47th and 56th regiments,
which had returned from the Expedition up the Per-
sian Gulf, had but slightly felt it at the date of this
letter. The greatest precaution had been taken by
the Authorities. All Europeans not belonging to
the island were ordered to quit; in consequence of
which, the mercantile interest bears a very gloomy
appearance. Trade is at a:complete stand; scarcely
any cotton is to be had, and the Company's ships'
t:latt had arrived were about leaving Bombay half-
loaded with other cargoes. Merchandize rose greatly.
—News from the interior states that some skir-

mishing had taken place at Rotulkund with the no-

torious &wan SING. The expedition to Palem-
' bang has greatly embarrassed the Authorities in
Java; the Government had determined to make an-
other attempt; but it is supposed that the state of
their Treasury would not admit of a fresh armament.
The heavy duties levied on the produce of the country
has cannihilated foreign conimerce ; and American ves-
sets that had arrived at Batavia with specie, for the
purpose of trading, had departed without any cargoes.
The Malay population of Java, arc greatly diScon-
tented with their present masters, and are ready to

loin in any plan that may effect a change. The ge-
neral opinion in Bombay respecting the late Expedi-
tion up the Persian Gulf, was •ery unfavourable, it
having cost the Government an immense sum, and
the inhabitants a great 'deal of anxiety. The Com-

parry's ships Earl of Balcarras, Thames, Warren
Courts, and flee Indiamen, have

arrived safe. The Monsoons were expected to set in
earlier this season than any former period : very un-
favourable weather has been experienced fur a long
time past." ,
Extract of a letter from St. Helena, dated the 2d
of August :—" Bonaparte still continues as sulky as
ever, but he is in good health, seldom walks abroad,
and receives but little company."
