THINS IN THE URINARY PASSAGE, DIABETES,

OSEPII NVESSEL's JESUITS DROPS.—In his
3 Majesty's Navy these Drops have for nearly 100 years past
maintained their character as a specific for the scurvy, gravel,
dropsy, strangury, weakness, and obstruction in the urinary pas-
sage, and general debility ;—but particularly for their absolute
and speedy cure of the Venereal Disease, Wessel's Jesuit's Drops
and Specific Remedy, are the only safe and expeditious cure, and
are so innocent in their nature, as to require little or no restraint.
As a restorative for general debility, Wessel's Jesuit's Drops
have been long known and esteemed ; whether the debility arises
from 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, ureters or bladder, dia-
btes, or difficulty of making water, will experience a complete
cure by clue perseverance.
The great object to be attended to is, that purchasers should be
careful in having the true and genuine preparation, as the unsafe
and dangerous counterfeits attempted to be foisted on the Public,
by absolute fakehoods, are so numerous, that the proprietors re-
guest every purchaser to ask for Joseph Wessel's Jesuit's Drops.

Tug KING'S PALACE, ST. JAMES'S.—Between two I
and three months since, the rubbish occasioned by
the fire which took place several years ago in the
KING'S Palace, St. James's, was removed to the other
side of the Park, in the Birdcage-walk, and deposited •
between his MAJESTY'SStationary Office and the Re-
cruit Houses. About the same time, several persons who
were resident near the spot, and the private entrance
of the late KING and Royal Family, quitted posses-
sion under a short notice, and some brick-work was
then proceeded on by the workmen, which was stop-
ped for some weeks, except making and putting up
a new pair of wooden railing gates leading from the
Park to the temporary entrance which was made for
the private entrance and departure of the Royal
Family as soon as possible after the fire, and which
leads to the K tees Entree Room, the State Bed-
chamber, and Levee Room, where the ravages of
the fire ceased. The repairs and alterations of the
interior of the; State Rooms began on Friday, by
Messrs. FRANCE and BASTING commencing with
their men to remove the furniture from the State
Rooms to the Ball Room; and also to take down the
celebrated and much-admired tapestry,which had been
cleaned, and the rooms white-washed and new painted
previous to the accouchement of the late Princess
CHARLOTTE. Had she survived, it was understood
that the repairing and cleaning of those rooms would
have been done for the purpose of her Royal lligh-
ncss receiving the congratulations of the Nobility
and Gentry upon her recovery. The temporary
covered way over the wide steps from the garden,
for the KING and Royal Family, was entirely re-
moved on Saturday.

TROTTING MATCH.

The match for 100 guineas a-side, between the celebrated
trotting Finchley policy, and that belonging to Mr. Got.eswoarxr,
of Ham, took place yesterday on the Slough road. It was a
match which excited much interest, which should go over most I
ground upon the trot in one hour. Both ponies went off at the
rate of a mile in four minutes, and maintained it by doing the
first four miles in sixteen minutes. They were at their full speed,
and did the next four miles in eighteen minutes. They kept to-
gether until the thirteenth mile was completed in fifty-eight mi-
'notes, when both ponies broke their ground into a gallop. The
Finchley poney won by a few lengths, having done something
less than thirteen miles and a half in the hour.
GREAT PIGEON MATCH.
A match for 200 guineas a-side took place yesterday on Pen-
field heath, Surrey, between four Gentlemen of the Midgham
Club and seven of the counties of ll..nts and Berks, at twenty-
one yards front the trap, unlimited charge, at thirteen birds
each, which was won by the latter.

WINCHESTER, Atm. 14.—This morning, J. Brooks,
who had assumed the name of John Woodnot, a pri-

vate in the 51st Regiment, for breaking open the
house of Captain J. k. White, R.N. in Jubilee Ter-
race, Portsmouth, and stealing considerable property;
and John Hughes, flr a similar crime, in the parish
of Romsey Extra, attended with cruelty towards the
proprietor, Mr. Hickman, and his housekeeper (as
stated before at his trial), both old and feeble persons,
were executed, pursuant to their sentences, on the
new drop, at the back of the City Jail. Brooks was
only 22 years of age, a native of the Isle of %Vight,
where he has a father and mother now living, and
who came on Wednesday, and took a most affecting
leave of him. He acknowledged having committed
many other offences, among them, of his being the
person who took Mr. Culley s till, in Winchester, at
the time the Regiment lay in the barracks. Brooks,
before his execution, confessed that he broke into
Captain White's alone ; that he carried away all the
property except the dollars and notes, of which he
denied to the last any knowledge ; but this denial, it
is suspected, arose from a desire to shield those per-
sons to whom he had disposed of them; for, before
his ti ial, he told some of his fellow prisoners that lie
had them and the notes concealed ; that Thornton
did not know of the robbery till the next day, when
lie acquainted him with it, for the purpose of his
getting a pass and taking the property to London.—
During his confinement lie ingeniously framed a lad-
der with small faggot sticks, long enough to reach
the top of the wall, and sufficiently strong to bear his
weight, by which he intended to have escaped ; but
it was frustrated by the vigilance of Mr. Macklin,
turnkey of the jail. He told some of the prisoners,
that if he had escaped, he should have gone to Port-
sea, got his treasure, and sailed for America. Since
his condemnation he received the kindest attention
and assistance of the Chaplain of the prison (the Rev.
Mr. Zillwood), at first with little advantage to him,
but as his time grew shorter, and all hopes of a re-
prieve being at an end (which he for a time indulged
in), lie was more serious in his preparation. He was
a fine young man, but had long borne a bad cliarac•
ter in his Regiment.
There were five other persons charged with Brooks
in the robbery, two of whom, Malachi Thornton and
John Smith, were also sentenced to death, but were
afterwards reprieved. John Hughes, the other un-
happy culprit, was only nineteen years of age. He
conducted himself very penitently since his con-
demnation, and acknowledged that he had long
lived a life of plunder. He left Bristol in company
with the man concerned with him in the robbery (but
he would not disclose his name), for the express pur-
pose of robbing Hickman's house, understanding that
he always kept property in it. He was a native of
Hedington, a village near Caine, in Wiltshire, where
his father and mother are now living, who are
honest, industrious people, and who endeavoured to
bring: him up in honest habits, and the trade of a lath-
cutter, but whose advice he scoffed at ; and it was
heart-rending to witness the parting scene of the
poor old father from his profligate but dying son.
Irmo", Auc. 18.—Finery and Acers, convicted
of wilful murder, on Friday last, at our Assizes, suf-
fered here on Monday morning, in the presence of a
large concourse of persons, of all ages, and of both
sexes. Emery was not at all communicative; he never
denied his guilt. It was, however, quite the reverse as
it regards the other prisoner, Acers. He persisted to
the last that he was innocent of the crime for which
he suffered ; but, just before he ascended the scaf-
fold, he observed, " had I been upon the Jury, I
should have done as they did—it is the witnesses
whom I have cause to reproach; they did it, but I
forgive them. One thing I regret exceedingly, which
is, that I did not save the life of the deceased, as I
believe I might have done. When I went up stairs,
I found the deceased hanging from the bed, with the
feet upon the ground, and Mary Spurgin who fol-
lowed me knows it ; she also heard the deceased
groan." Just before the scaffold fell, addressing him-
self to the spectators, with a firm voice, he said, All
you who are witnessing my situation, I hope you will
take warning, and not commit fornication or adul-
tery ; as it was such wicked practices as these, which
brought me here ; but I am innocent of the murder."
At the instant the scaffold fell, Acers was singing a
hymn. Ile was of the Anabaptist persuasion ; of a
strong mind, and some education. Acers has left a
wife and five children, Emery was a single man.—
Both prisoners were considered bad characters.—On
the day following the execution, the bodies of both
the malefactors were dissected. The head of Acers
was sent to London at the earnest !civic a. of a pro-
fessiunal Gentleman there.

By an arrival from the Island of St. Thomas, we
have accounts highly favourable to the attainment of
independence in South America. The schooner Fal-
mouth, which arrived at St. Thomas's on the 14th ult.
brought intelligence of a general battle having been.
fought on the 21th June between the Patriots and the
Ito) alists, near Valencia, in which the latter were
defeated. As far as regards the provinces of Vene-
zuela and New Granada, this battle may he consi-
dered decisive of the contest for independence, as
both parties had, for a long time previously, been
concentrating their forces for an engagement, on the
result of which the cause of Spain was well known
to depend. After their defeat, the Royalists, to the
number of 2,300 men, took refuge in Puerto Cavello.
the only port that remains to them in the provincesof
Venezuela. In that of New Granada, the only strong
hold they have left is Carthagena, which is still be-
sieged by the Patriots. Puerto Cavello, as a for-
tress, is considered impregnable; but as the fugitives
from Caraccas and Laguyra, as well as those from
the main body of the Spanish army, had fled to that
place, the utmost difficulty would necessarily arise
of supplying so large a population with subsistence.
Though the Royalists possessed the superiority at sea,
that advantage was likely to avail them little, as the
want of money would exclude them from the mar-
kets of the neighbouring Islands, and the President
BOLIVA R, by holding possession of the interior, still
more effectually cut them off from their resources
in that quarter. The President was expected to
arrive before Puerto Cavello on the 4th ult. to com-
mence its blockade.

We have other advices from this quarter by the
arrival of New York Papers to the 25th ult. which
are not so recent in date from the Spanish Main, but
supply a few particulars omitted in the preceding ac-
counts from St. Thomas's. The recapture of Carac-
cas, before mentioned, has, it appears, been effected
by General BERNIUDEZ, the Officer who originally
expelled the Royalists from that City, and it is evi-
dent that he now resumes his original conquest with
a much greater probability of maintaining it. The
immediate cause of the abandonment both of that
City and of Laguyra by the Royalists, is stated to
have been the discovery that the black troops in
great numbers, and in every quarter, were deserting
to the cause of independence.
All the news in the New York Papers worthy of.
notice, independently of the proceedings on the Spa-
nish Main, relates to the procrastination used by
Spain in the delivery of the Floridas, which is solely
attributed, and we believe with justice, to the charac-
teristic slowness with which every great measure is
completed by the Spanish nation, and not to any re-
luctance to the fulfilment of the Treaty.—The fever
at lk.ltimore, which caused general alarm for the
health of the United States, has almost wholly dis-
appeared.
