in one which would be so contrary to his principles of right

It is a melancholy fact, that thousands fall victims to the
Venereal Disease owing to the unskilfulness of illiterate
men, who, by the use of that deadly poison, Mercury, ruin
the constitution, and cause ulcerations, with blotches on the
bead, face, and body, dimness in the sight, noise in the ears,
deafness, obstinate gleets, and nodes on the shin bones, till
at length a general debility and decay of the constitution
ensues, and a melancholy death puts a period to their dread-
ful sufferings.

PERRY'S PURIFYING SPECIFIC PILLS, price 2s
9d. and lle. per box, a certain, safe, and the most speedy re-
medy ever discovered for the permanent and effectual cure of
venereal diseases, gonorrhoea, gleets, strictures, seminal
weakness, in the loins, affections of the kidneys, gravel, lum-
bago, local debility, irritation of the bladder or urethra, and
other diseases of the urinary passages, frequently performing
a perfect cure in the short space of three days, by one small
pill for a dose, with ease, secresy, and safety. The certainty
with which they are continually administered can be-attested
by many thousands. Tne Specific Pills root out every parti-
cle of insidious poison, purifying in their progress the whole
mass of fluids. They not oniy remove the disease, but reno-
vate by their action the different functions of the body, ex-
pelling the grosser humours. and in a manner so mild and
imperceptible as to convince the most sceptical of their asto-
nishing and unequalled powers. They neither contain mer-
cury 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 coin -
plate cure, without the least exposure to the patient. At any
period when the slightest suspicion may exist, it will be well
to have recourse to the Specific Pills, for when taken before
the disease has made its appearance it acts as a certain pre-
ventative, by moving the complaint effectually and secretly.
Messrs. PERRY, Surgeons, continue to direct their stu-
dies to those dreadful debilities arising from the too free and
indiscriminate indulgence of the passions, which not only
occasion a numerous train of nervous affections, and entail
on its votaries all the enervating imbecilities of old age, but
weaken and destroy all the bodily senses, occasionipg loss of
Imagination,judgment, and memory, indifference and aver-
sion for all pleasures. In that distressing state of debility or
deficiency, whether the consequence of baneful habits, exces-
sive drinking, or any other cause, by which the powers of
the constitution become enfeebled, they offer a firm, safe, and
speedy restorati ,n to sound and vigorous health.
• • PERRY'S VEGETABLE PILLS are well known for
the certain and effectual remedy of secondary symptoms,
venereal eruptions, pains in the bones, ulcerated sore throat,
diseased nose, chronic rheumatism, scrofula, scorbutic and
glandular affections, local and general debility, nocturnal
pains in the head and limbs, depression of spirits, and all
diseases arising from an impure state of the blood.

MARSHAL SOULT AND THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON.
PARIS, JULY 26.—The Quotidienne of to-day contains the
following article, which, as expressing in moderate terms the
opinion of the Legitimist party relative to the late visit of the
Marshal Soult in England, I have not hesitated to transcribe :
"The mission of Marshal Soult has terminated, but the
illusions of the supporters of the new French dynasty con-
tinue. They persist in seeing in the reception given to the
Marshal a proof of the sympathy of England for the French
embassy, and a new guarantee for the allowance of the two
people. This is putting romance in the place of politics.
" Before Marshal Soult, Blucher was the object of an even
still greater enthusiasm on the part of the English population,
and yet the Prussian government never appropriated to
itself the glory of an ovation which was purely personal to
the general who had just taken so active a part in the three
last campaigns.
" The Duke of Wellington is the only English officer who
has shown great attention to, and a remarkable respect for,
the Marshal Soult; but whoever understands anything of the
chivalrous sentiments of military men will know that that
feeling. alone will explain all the rest.
" When Prince Henry of Prussia came to visit France in
1783, it was the Prince de Conde, his rival during the war of
seven years, who was charged, to do him the honours of the
capital; he gave him a fete at Chantilly ; and by an attention
of a most delicate nature, he caused the cannon to be removed
and hidden which had been taken from the Duke of Bruns-
wick at Joanisberg. We know not whether the Duke of
Wellington carried his politeness to such an extent; but
this we are sure of, that his conduct towards Marshal Soult
was dictated by the same feeling.
" The journals of the new French dynasty affirm that the
Marshal pressed the Duke of Wellington much to visit him
at Paris; they do not say, however, that he accepted. It is
probable, however, that his Grace will do as have done the
princes of Austria and Prussia when uselessly solicited to
visit the 'young establishment of July.' The duke will no
doubt remain at home; and he will do well to do so, for,
more fortunate than arshal Soult, the duke has no necessity
to leave his country to be popular. In England he enjoys a
solid and well-grounded popularity."
The Quotidenne then institutes a comparison between the
military career of Soult and of the Duke of Wellington, and
maintains that the comparison is in favour of Soult. It was,
however, in the second rank that the Marshal distinguished
himself, and not as commander-in-chief or principal. For
instance, at Fleurus he assisted the victory of Jourdan—at
Stockach he covered his retreat—at Genes he was associated
in the glory of Massena—and at Austerlitz, Jena. Eylau,
Burge., and Corunna, he powerfully contributed to the
success of the plans of Buonaparte. But when he carried,
or attempted to carry, his plans into execution, with the ex-
ception of the defeat of the rear guard of the Duke of Wel-
lington at the bridge of Arrobispo, there is really no remark-
able success to be recorded as gained by the Marshal Soult.
At Oporto he was surprised, and lost in his retreat on Gallicia
his artillery and his baggage. At Albuera he was defeated
by Beresford, when his victory appeared certain. At Znbiri,
Iron, and Orthez all his combinations failed, and he was
defeated by the English generals and army. At Toulouse,
he has the honour of the combat, according to some, but,
according to all, he lost the field of battle. He took a part
in twenty victories, but he only gained one.
Now then, compare this with the career of the Duke of
Wellington. At Vimiera the kingdoin of Portugal was de-
livered from a first invasion. At Oporto it was pseserved a
second time. At Arapites the gates of Madrid were opened
in consequence to the English army. At Zuibiri, Irun, &c.,
the keys of the French frontiers were, so to speak, delivered
into the hands of Wellington. At Orthez he secured La
Guienne. At Toulouse he got possession of Languedoc.
And at Waterloo the defeat of Napoleon still further raised
the reputation of the Duke.
The French say, that the Duke was sometimes circumspect
even to a fault, as during the last French retreat from Portu-
gal ; sometimes imprudent, sometimes hesitating, notwith-
standing his success; sometimes, as at Fuenta de Honor,
compromising his army, and rashly exposing it to a defeat;
and at Badajoz and at Burgos he failed. But then the French
observe—" History will render this testimony to the Duke
of Wellington, that by the firmness of his character, by his
intrepidity, by the confidence with which he inspired troops
of different nations, he prepared and carried into effect great
events, and replaced the English army in the rank and esti-
mation in which it had formerly been held and occupied in
the opinion of Europe."
The Quotidienne' maintains that the mission of the Mar-
shal has not fortified the English alliance—that England has
gained by the war the possession of the French colonies and
the weakening of the French marine—and that England can
now have nothing better to do than to leave France to repose
in peace—that a political alliance is not a mere phrase.
Prussia, Austria, and Russia have procured, by their mutual
alliance, Poland, the Grand Duchy of the Rhine and Saxony,
and Lombardy. "We do not require the Duke of Dalmatia
to ask the consent of England to France possessing another
inch of territory, for this we know would be too much to ex-
pect; but we say this—only refuse to second England in any
portion of her policy—only refuse to aid her iu establishing
her influence in Egypt—only refuse to allow Belgium to be
ruined or injured by English manufactures—only do this,
and you will see how much this alliance is worth."

SPAIN.
The Madrid Gazette' of the 19th announces that the Ar-
ragon mail bad been stopped by the Carlists at Arcos, and
that the entire of the correspondence had been burnt. The
Carlist chief Vera and seven of his men were taken prisoners
atColmenar on the 11th.

Two companies of the Queen's regiment and some cavalry
sent from Madrid, under the command of Colonel Quiroga,
to keep the Carlist chief Perdez in check, and who is said to
be at the head of 1000 men, had to proceed to Toledo, being
unable to keep their ground against this formidable faction.
Letters from Estella of the 20th instant bring us word
that, up to that date, Espartero had not stirred from Logrono,
much to the astonishment, and, as they prufess, equally to
the regret, of the Carlists, who anticipate a victory.
A Bayonne letter of the 22d asserts that some firing was
heard along the line of the Solana on the evening of the 19th.

SPORTING LVTE LL IGENCE.

KNUTSFORD RACES.-THURSDAY.

This fertile part of Cheshire was clouded soon after noon,
and rain set in which continued until long after the racing
was over. It was no trifling drawback to the attendance;
still there was much more company than yesterday. The
sport seemed to give satisfaction. We give a brief return ;
and, in addition to the company we named yesterday, we add
the following as present, either at the ball, at the George
Inn, or on the course. The most admired equipage on the
latter was the unique four-in-hand of Mr. Wilbraham Eger-
ton. The following were some of the visitors:—Sir Philip
