TO THOMAS TAYLOR, ESQ.
N 0.9, NEW B,RIDGE-ASTREET, LONDON.

HONOURED 515,
IBEG leave to inform you, that ever since the yeat
1794), I had been afflicted with the I.ues Venerea ; which, from
its obstinately resisting every course of medicine prescribed by the
most eminent of the faculty here, and undergoing several severe
courses of salivation, and twice discharged from the Hospital, with
little relief, would appear to be of the most inveterate nature. In
the spring of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as
nearly to put a period to my existence. I had a large ulcer on the
crown of my head, one on each arm, and my legs were broken
out in a frightful manner; my right was dreadfully painful, and
had been in a state of ulcerathin for the last seven years; my left
had also two nodes upon it, was very much discoloured, and gave
me suck excruciating pain, particularly when warns in bed, as
nearly to deprive me of rest; in this lamentable state, I was re-
commended by Mr. J. Thompson, (who received so great a cure
by them here,) to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I began
to do on the 46tb May ; in the course of a fortnight I began to
receive benefit—in little more than a month the ulcers on my
head and arms were soundly healed—soon after, the sores on my
kg healed also leaving, however, considerable discolour
t.on inn the skin, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the
blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invalua-
ble Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersiiig, the skin regaining
itsnatur4l hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going off—l thus
became, by your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from
my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits and
strength, and am become jolly and fat, in which statehaving con-
tinued many months to the astonishment of all who knew me, I
an; at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but beg you
for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as
public as possible, as I shall on every occasion—in so doing you
will greatly oblige, Sir, your grateful obedient very bumble ser-
vant, ALEX. NIURKEIL.

• Such, Sir, was the opinion of that great Invoinary
of the law, Lord Kenyon, delivered. in the Court of
King's Bench in 18.11 (nine years ago) ; but what
would he have said, had be lived to see the present
day ? What, Sir, would have been his opinion now;
seeing that the evils of which he complained, haves
increased so alarmingly within the above period
of nine years ? Our Gazettes afford us irrefra-
gable proofs (if proofs were wanting to convince any
man of discernment) of the ruin and misery entailed
u the industrious classes of the community,
lot tpon he pernicious extension of the system of pro:
vincial banking—a "system,, which, • while it hal
enabled a number of individuals to grow rich, has
caused poverty to spread, with accelerated strides,
among the great miss of the people—the sinews of
the State—who are continually deprived of a large
proportion of. the hard earnings of their industry, itl
order to enable a set of money jobbers, land-jobbers,
and other spcculators, who, like locnsts, fatten
and prey on the very vitals of the country, to make
immense thrones.

The mischief is, the people {at least the great mass
of them, who alone are the greatest sufferers) do not
perceive the terrible oppression that arises out of the
system of banking, because they da not: understand
its naturo, or cannot comprehend it, without too la-,
borious an examination ; but it is easily made
g.ble to the meanest understanding. The country
now teems with this artificial money, yclept bank-
notes ; and their number has lately so much increased,
as to threaten universal bankruptcy. Numerous art
the speculators who have sent their notes into circu-
lation, without having the tenth part of a capital suf-
ficient to answer their issues, and, having obtained
large sums of money, the property of istdividual
creditwho have too implicitly relied 02 the and Good
fai.h of their flimsy paper, without considering that
they were merely holding such sums in secunty for
other people, they have embarked in projects of spe-
culation and aggrandisement, that have too then ter-
minated in their bankruptcy, and entailed poverty and
misety on many worthy families, who have been
duped by their fallacious shew of credit.
Neither does the evil end here, alarming as it is, for
the farmer will not send his corn to market, nor the
grazkr his cattle, to tell at a fair average price? while
they can each be accommodated with bur issues of
paper currency to answer present exigefictes. Thus
the markets are kept up, and the prices of 41 the net
cessaries of life unnaturally enhanced, by the largo
issues of these id destructive assignats," which teem
from upwards of eight hundred hank-note Manufac-
tories, situated in different parts of the kingdom.
I wish, Sir, it had been possible for the persons who
compose what is termed his Majesty's Government,
to witness the scenes of distress that have occurred
within the last four months only, between Plymouth
and Portsmouth, not forgetting Salisbury, which lies
in the road ; and where hundredsof farmers, labourers,
mechanics, women and children, were lately seen iss
the markets and streets, weeping, and uttering the
most doleful lamentations, with bank paper in their
hands, which they had taken or exchanged for cash,
but tor which they were not able to obtain a single
meal to assuage the cravings of hunger, or to appease
the cries of their famished children. Such a situ..
tion of things, as Lord Kenyon usly remarked, is
truly dreadful, and calls loudly for legislative inter-
ference, 'ere it be too late to apply an antidote to ale
wide-spreading evil. .
The picture of the distress exhibited at Salisbury,
is by no means a solitary instance—almost every
part of the kingdom has witnessed a similar scene
--ipsomuch, that in many places meetings have beset
held, and resolutions entered into by the princi.
pal tradesmen and inhabitants, declaratory of their
determination in future to take ne other than Daub,
of-England paper. •
