Bartine's Lotion.

I'm cases Of Gout, Rheumatism, iS,veLings of all
u kinds, DisIocations and Fractured Bones, Br,.i
ses Cuts, Commissions attended with pain and in
fiammation, Poisonous Biles and Stings, Burns.
Scaids, Chil6lains, Corns or Bunions, and Wounds
of every description, it affords an immediate and per-
manent relief 1t is perhaps, the only article that
can be depended upon in the cure Of those Pains
in the back and side generally produced by taking
cold after violent eXertion and overheating For
Ghndular Iumors, Lumbago Erysipelas, Istter
or RingOorna, and all kinds of Eruptions of the
Skin, it is most excellent remedy. For Fever and
Ague, Ague IN The Breast and Face, Cyamp in the
Stomach, and Headache it acts like a charm. But
above all, in the cure of Tendinous and Capsular
injuries, Sprans, and Wounds of every description
it shows in most astonishing manner, its magical
powers.
In addition to the benign influence the Lotion ex-
erts over the infrmities of man, it has been found
no less valuable in similar complaints to which in
ferior animals are subject, particularly the Horse.
In cases, where it has been applied to this fine
creature for slight injuries, it has, in addition to an
almost instantaneous cure, given apparently new
animation, to such an extent that in various in
stances the winning of race has been tenaciously
ascribed to its stimulating and happy effects.
The Lotion is composed entirely of the medicinal
properties of vegetable substances concentrated and
rendered most pure by dstillaton and other chemi-
cal processes. AS an inward medicine, it is of the
most innocent wholesome, stimulating and cheer
ing character, and will expel, instantly those dull
heavy and hypochondriaca feelings to which many
are SO subject, and give life and animation to both
body and mind. WIN. @. FORCE,

T'HE subscriber, having determined to publish
/ this paper daily, and feeling it to be his duty
to close up his former business most earnestly re-
quests that all persons indebted to him will make
immediate settlement. This is not only required
as matter of right, but of necessity; as he has
obligations that must be met very soon. He leaves
the lumber business with his son and Mr. James

Mr. EDITOR The cause of the fire Yesterday
morning is still enveloped in mystery, but from
the situation Of the place where it originated,
it could not have been the work of an incendi-
ary, and might therefore be attributed to acci-
dent, The building destroyed was owned by
Miss Johanna Lloyd, of Alexandria county,
and was insured by the Mutual Assurance
Company of Virginia at Richmond, but the
stock, furniture, &c., of the occupant is a total
loss. Mr.. John w. Perry, occupying the OPP
posite store to the west, lost considerable by
the removal of his goods, but the damage done
to the windows, roof, &c., is covered by in
surance in Baltimore. The large ware house
adjoining Mr.. Tatsapaugh on the east, occu-
pied as -four store by Mr.. Johnson and Kee-
fer, being fire proof, escaped without injury,
though the wall late last evening was very hot

leaving, man went into the Depot at the cor
