PHILADELPHIA, August IL.

The Prickly Heat.-An Englishman ar
rived 10 this city few weeks ago, and
being very much troubled with the prickly
heat, he went into his bedroom and
spupsed his body all over in some vinegar
and cold water. The consequence was,
he was corpse within Eve hours Z!
Ice Punch.-A few days since, two
brothers, Irisbmen, feeling thirsty, yet
being fearful to drink water, went into a
tavern and drank bowl Of ace punch.
They both expired in less than twelve
hours.
These facts are mentioned in the hope
that they may operate as cautions. To
them we would add that a citizen died a
few days since in consequence of having
eat heartily of hot corn and mater melons.
AD indulgence of appetite, at this season,
is peculiarly dangerous, unless it be under
the government Of experience.

SIR-Your paper Of the 4th inst. con-
tains " Information respecting Silver Mine

ing description of the locality of this Mine
with the assertion that some of the ore
has been sent TO the Mint at Philadelphia,
and it is said would yield IS per cent. .
Now, Sir, you may be assured that no
specimen Of such ore has ever been assay

the eristence Of this pretended valuable
discovery, must rest on some other evil
dence. An Officer Of the Mint.
