DOCTOR WEDDERBURN'S STOMACHlC
BTT'TERS

VNTERE well proven in the Fall of 1882, when
w the Cholera was in the City of Richmond,
and at the same time in Alexandria; the popu-.
lation of Richmond being $4,000, and that of
Alexandria 5000. The former lost of its inha-
bitants by Cholera 47e, and this town only %,
as officially reported in each place. The above
Bitters were used freely in most Of the families
here, and in all the Taverns, but more partcu-
larry at Clagett's Hotel The people OF Rich-
mond had not the advantage of providing them
selves with this grand preventive of Cholera,
Bilious Fever, and Ague. 1t cannot be proved
that any person has died from Cholera or Scar
let Fever who used the Bitters as directed.

We believe that we have not publish
ed any account of the duel which was
fought near the city of Providence shor,
time since. The following particulars ol
that "honorable affair."" we extract from
the Boston Advocate:
Dr-L.-The peaceful jurisdiction OF
Rhode-Island, was invaded, on Friday
last, by corps of bloods from Boston
who went there for the pleasure OF shoot
ing at each other, to prove tha' .ney y
were men of honor, and wouldn't stand
nose pulling. The principals, as we
learned in Rhodc-lsland, were Mr:
Uoopcr. a merchant on Ceniral-whan,
in this city, and a Mr.. Jones, who Is Sc
cretary Of State of North Carolina. "A
lady is said to be at the bottom Of 9th, the
affair, of course. A Captain M.N'eh,
anil a MIR. Dearborn were in Providence
at the time the affair took place "oo

The Albany Argus in announcing the
failure Of Benjamin knower, the Pre-
sidcnt Of the Mechanics and Farmers
Ban, attributes it to the United States
Banh!
No doubt it will be attempted to pro-
duce such an impression through the
country. But the intelligence Of the
people will defeat this fresh effort to de-
lude them.
The United States Bank has curtailed
its discounts no more than self preserva-
ton required. 1t has not drawn from
the public, more than the public has
drawn from it. 1t has in fact saved sew
eral Banks from stopping payment, and
has recently discounted at New York
and Philadel phia more than any other
institution has dared to do.
But on the other hand we ask where
are our boastcd local banks that were to
do so much for the country, that were
to make money plenty, and relieve the
pressure in the money mar"ct.
If they are so easy, so firm, so well
provided with funds, why in heavens
name do they not do something at once:
The Bank Commissioners assert that the
New-York Banks are able to discount
eight millions more than they have done!
Then why do they see such men as
Benjamin Knower go down? Why did
they not come forward and aid man
who dealt SO largely in great staple of
the country?
If thcy are so well able to relieve the
public, why did they not relieve hm'
Will they pretend that they are afraid
of the u. S. Bank? What?--airaid Of
a reptile, an insoIvent, having Amos
Kendall's foot on its neck, and whose
teeth, says Gen. Jackson, "is drew!--
No! they will not admit such cOnrlu-
sion, or cannot without talsifying the
daily assertions oithe leading politicians.
IL then they are not afraid OF the reptile,
why do they not come forward and save
the country ?
The II. S. Bank cannot come forth
and do SO, when it is hourly threatened
with the vengeance Of government, and
has only two years more of active bn-
simcss left. 1t is admonished by MIR.
fancy to close up its affairs, 1t cannot
wind them up and at the same time un-
wind them.
We repeat it, why have not the local
Banks sustained a man who is, accord
ing to the Albany Argus, perfectly sol.
vent! The fact that they have not upheld
him, is the best proof of their inability to
do - Albany Daily .adr.

We have this day, Feb. 9th, to an
nounce the arrival of several ships from
Liverpool Among which are the pack
cts United States, Holdrege, which sail
ed on the 18th December, and Napoleon,
Smith, which sailed on the Gath of Dec
BY these vessels we have copious files of

Of the cath, ne arly one month later than
previous advces.
Thus we have adviccs from Europe,
in general, of near month later than
before. There is, however, but little
political intelligence Of moment. Spain
is at the present time, the most impor-
tant point for observation; but the aspect
Of the news from that quarter, has un-
dcrgone very little alteration. The
Queen Regent was yet in the ascendant.
From Portugal, there is nothing new of
much interest. The most important
item of commercial news is the improve
ment of the cotton market.
Great B,iiain.-Parliament has been
further prorogued to the 4th of the pre-
sent month.
Some activity had been impaired to
the stock market in London, by the de-
termination of the Bank OF England to
lend the sum of two millions sterling uo-
on stocks, as agent for the East India
Company, which has that amount lying
idle in deposite. The money market
was already rather over supplied. The
consul market had improved.
Lord Exmouth died IN London on the
Sd of December from the effects of scar
let fever. He was in the 47th year of
his age; and was the son of the A Admira
who made the successful attack upon AL
giers many years ago.
The Bishop of Limerick, Rev. DR..
Jebb, died on the 9th Of December, IA,
Wands orth, near London.
France. There is precious little news
from France. Civil contentious in the
Metropolis are spoken Of, but we find nc
particulars.

is about to visit the United States, anC
to pass year in our country. He is to
