Dr. DATIESON continues to direct his attention to those dis-
orders arising from the too free and indiscriminate indulgence'
of the passions, which not only occasion a numerous train of
nervous affections, but also entails on its votaries all the ener-
vating imbecilities of old age. .In that distressing state of de-
bility and deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful ha-
bits, excessive drinking, or any other cause by which the powers
of the constitution become enfeebled, he offers a firm, safe, and
speedy restoration to sound and vigorous health..
It is a melancholy fact that thousands fall victims to the ve-
nereal disease, owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate men, who,
by the use of that Amity poison. Mercury, ruin the constitution,,
and when the great Doctor Swedour became Professor at Ley-
den University, he conferred an invaluable benefit upon man-
kind by the discovery of his grand-Panacea, for the cure of this
deplorable complaint. Never did a discovery excite a greater
sensation, it was sought after with avidity, and used with the
undeviating success in the most minute and intricate cases of
the' delicate.complaint, far the cure of Which they have been so
Irmgcelebrated. The fame of these rjfls throughout Germany,
caused their speedy introduction into almost every country.. The
certainty with which they were continually administered can be
attested by many thousands. In fact, during the long conti-
nental warthey were the inseparable companion and safeguard
of the soldier, in all cases where the slightest suspicion of infec-
tion was entertained. What medicine can be more appropriate
than that which has given such general satisfaction ? The Hyge-
ian Herb Pills root out every particle of insidious poison, puri-
fying in their progress the whole mass of fluids. They not only
remove the disease, but renovate by their action the different
?unctions of the body expelling the grosser huminira, and; in a
Manner so mild and imperceptible as to convince the most
sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers. The
neither contain mercury nor any other mineral, and may be
taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery—they require
no restraint of diet, loss of time, or hindrance of business, but
effect a complete cure, without.the least exposure to the patient.
a;as pe-rod when the she, - • ~suspicion may exist. it will be
'recourse to the-t-tyleian Herb Pills, for when taken
before the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain
preventive, by moving the' complaint effectually and secretly.
The deplorable state in which many persons have been when
visiting, the proprietor, from the use of mercury; renders it irn-'
peratiyely necessary to caution the„public against that dangerous
mineral when injudiciously administered.

The Learned RECORDER briefly charged the grand jury.
They were all so well accustomed to investigate the cases that
came before them, that his duty became lighter at each succed-
ing session; however, there were two or three cases on which
he would make.a few observations. The first case was a charge
against two men for stealing a bale of cotton, which was laid as
.the property of Nathan C aims. He had read the depositions,
and perhaps a good deal of inquiry would be necessary before
they could find the bill. However, the most material part of
the depositions was the voluntary examination of the prisoners
themselves, and when the jury had read them he thought they
would find that they could dispense with a good deal of prelimi-
nary inquiry. Their might have been some difficulty without
their voluntary examination, but with them much difficulty
would be removed. The next case to which he would call their
attention stood eight or nine in the calandar, and was a charge
agaityst two men for stealing a quantity of iron, which was laid
as the property of the Ellesmere and Chester Canal Company.
He ought to tell them that possession- alone was sufficient to
satisfy the allegation of ownership of the property. The iron
which waslhe subject of that indictment had been passed from
one set of persons to another, and was left unclaimed in the
possession of the prosecutors. In- strictness of law it was not
their property, but it was in their custody and charge, and that
would make out the allegation of property to satisfy the crimi-
nal law ;,.therefore they need not embarrass themselves as to
the ownership, but simply whether it was in their custody and
charge. On reading the depositions in their case six and seven,
against tivo young persons—nee 14 and the other 13 years of
age—be found young as-they were, that one of them had been
only ten days in the office of the prosecutor, having never been
in his employ before, when he was placed in a most confidential
situation, and entrusted with the keys of a safe in which money
was kept. He-thought the prosecutor bad been guilty of great
carelessness indeed. To put money beforeyouth was a great
temptation, and no wonderthat boys so young had yielded to
that temptation. The prosecutor, by so employing and trust-
ing ttfe priioner, might have done it out of kindness, but it was
an goer-kindness, which ought not to have been shown. There
were some eases in the calendar in which the indictments would
be strictly laid before them as burglary. Now the law respect 7
ing burglary had of late been a good deal altered. It had been
the subject of inquiry, whether it was so light when the offence
was committed that the prisoner's hand could have been seen,
or whether the day was dawning, so that it could not be
aid to be 'night. All that inquiry was now unnecessary ; and
the inquiry to which they would have to direct theirattention
was, whether the offence was committed between nine o'clock
at night and six in the--morning, without having any re-
ference to light and darkness, for. between those hours alone

d the crane of burglary now be- committed. He had no
further obsei4ations to make on them on the eases in the calen-
dar, for as he!bad stated,aheir• own knowledge and experience
would enable them to surmount any difficulties that were likely
to arise, but Anything coot rary to his expectation should arise
.to render the assistance of the 'court necessary, he -should he
happy to do atJlte could to relieve them. He had an interview
with Lieutenant LOW on the subject of the frauds committed on
the unhappy persous—and God' knows they were the last per-
sons that. shoul&be made more distressed by taking from them
what little therhad left—who came here for the purpose .of
emigration. This pert_ might now he considered the principat
port to which parties, came from various parts of the country
for. the purpose ofgoing to the Western World; and Lieutenant;
Low suggested,-.that if.the persons who were in business as pas-
senger-brokers could be licensed. they would be better known
to the public..ankiratls it was likely would be diminished. The
document which Net:tenant Low had same time since prepared
-on this subject, had excited great observation in Various parts,
of the country; and as long as that document remained unal-
tered, it remainectas a-stigma upon this town. Upwards of
thnusand complaints have been made of frauds. committed on-
emigrants, and he was glai that the subject had been taken up
by the town-council. It-,"was only at the last sessions but one••
that he had. transported aaiassenger-broker for ppening a /leak,
in a .counting-house, ansir rotsbing it of 75 Ysovereigns.; Which*
showed what class of persist-fa mixed themselves up with the bu-
siness of -passenger-brokers;- and he thought .none of them -
should rest till the stigma *as removed from this port. He had•
nb further observation to make to theist except this, that what-
ever was the connexion hesween poverty and crime—and it
rested on good authority that
.there wag a cloSe connexion—it
was highly creditable to.the large population of this town, that
when poverty was the greatest, they had distinguished them-
selves by feeding the hungry, and clothing the naked, at no
slight charge; and they were-told on tie highest authority, that
inasmuch as they had done it to the poor, it was Mine to Him
who was the common Father of them all.
The grand jury then retired to .consider their bills, and the
petty jury was called , several who did not answer when their
names were called over, 'were fined 40s. for nun-attendance.
The calendar contained the names of 56 persons on chargesof
felony. and five for misdemeanours. As our police reports have
contained full particulars of the various cases of felony which
tiave been sent tor the sessions, we deem it unnecessary to repeat
them in detailed reports Of the sessions' proceedings.
