The following extract is published by Dr. Lee's au thority, viz:— Extract of a letter, written by a vgry respectable gen tleman, residing in Baltimore, to the subscriber, who deems it his duty, though unauthorized, to lay it be fore the public, withholding the writer's name, for particular reference, should any require it person ally. SAM. H. P. LEE. Baltihobx, August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. Lxz, New London, Conn. Dkah See—It is now upwards of twenty years that I have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al most every description of disease, and believe they sa ved many a long doctor's bill by tbeir early and timely use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past; and haviog, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you had made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this impression, I accidentally saw-an advertisement of yours in a New Yorlc newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each hill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other respact. Finding those l had without this test, I be gan to suspect that all was not fair in medicine, as well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe caries for your pills, With your written signature. I found many without this test, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs Keerts', who assured me they had them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using them, found the same effects from them I had always experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my self in possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that that I cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this inrormaiion. tfj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the bill of directions covering each box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, and prepared by me; but if ovly the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.

I’ll call all our folks together, says the Gineral, ami we’ll have a full Cabinet aud look info this matter, and do you Major prepare yourself, for I’m going to turn over a new leaf, that I’m determined on—and with that he issued orders for every man to be at the Cabinet Cham ber the next day just after breakfast—and I went to work putting down all uiy notions in writing, for 1 expected a rough time and a pretty sharp set of fellows to beat oft—and thinks l as it is the fashon now a days to read papers to the Cabinet, I’ll give ’em one that will be worth reading, aud 1 guess it will be the last one that the Senate will ask an official copy of in one while. It took nigh upon all night to w rite it out—-and I sprung to it, for I think the time is come to let some folks see they haint got a green horn to outwit w hen they try me. And so the Gineral had ’em all up in the Ca binet Chamber yesterdy, aud such an overhaw 1 in 1 never set—I sat all the while with one foot on the tabic, whitlin a piece of shingle—and the Gineral was walking aiound among ’em, tellin about the troubles in money all about the coun try, and asking how we are to git out of the scrape—I kept ao eye on most ail on ’em, and both ears on pnttv much the hull on Vm, and such a winzin and tangle I never see since the day all Downingville come oyer to the, Jackson side, and that was jist ater his election—They thought l was determin'd the first go to say noth in—And to eights l heard one chap jist be hind me tell the Gineral “there was one Major in the Cabinet who made pietty much all the trouble, and that he was writin letters that went all the while agin the rest or* ’em—and if it warn’t for him they could make the people be lieve just what they wanted that it was his fault th^t the Cabinet was obliged to shift their ground about the Bank and cross tracks every day,—If it had’nt been for him the deposites would have been removed because there wain't no ‘Safety Fund’ in the Bank, and the People been contented—and if it warn’t for him the government could not make the people believe that Biddle was the sole cause of their bein no money now a days;” and soon. I jest stop’d whitlin a minit and cast my eve over my left shoulder, and the fellow dod’gd be hind the Gineral in a Hash, and when l look’d round the ring l found pretty much the hull on ’em looking at me and there warn’t a word said. And to right* the Gineral he walk’d up to me and Stod’d right in front and look’d me strait in the face, *ay9 he, Major you’ve hearn all that is said —and 1 should like to know what you have to sa« io reply—no man shall leave this room says the Gineral till this troble is cleared up—•* Ma jor” *ays the Gineral (and his hp began to quiver I tell vou) Major, says he, it would take a good many men to convince me that you aint what I have always found you an honest mani and a true patriot—some tot k9 about us have bin whis perin in my ear lor a long while that you aint wiiat l think you are—but Major, says the Gine ral—I am a soldier and so are you—and we are now all face to face—no more whisnerin says the Gineral, and he gave his Hickory a whack on the floor and look’d round the hull ring—The coun ftry is in trouble says he, and the time is come for every honest man to speak out—if there is error let i’ be corrected—if there is trick we must ex pose it—and now Major says the Gineral do you set still—and if any man has any thing to say agio you let him speak out. When they are ail done—you can answer them—and with that the Gineral pull’d his own chair up to the other side of the table and laid his Hickory and hat down before him, and all our folks began to nock noses in little groups here and there, and oq£ on cm, no matter who, was as busy as a lap dog on a tramin dav, smelling round from one to auother to find the right man to speak first—but none on em seem’d to like it—The Gineral all the while sat blinkin and lookin round at ’em all, and rum plin his face once and a while most plagily. So to rights, this one on em came forward and bow’d, and says he, GineraL that “our sufter in9 is intolerable,” there is little doubt; arid the question is not hoio wegoti/ifo our present con dilion, but how we can best git out oj it. I be lieve, says he, (turnin with a how to every bpdv —for he is an amazin polite cretur,) that is the true and only point now for discussing. “Not exactly, says 1, but no matter.” Well, says he, as regards the Major, far be it from me to make any charge against him; he is decidedly the favorite ot the people, and should be the favorite of every man in office who wishes to keep bis of fice; but l would say, that l wish the Major had a higher office. I wish he was an auditor of ac counts—or receiver of public money—or a mi nister abmail-—or an login agent, or any other office in the Government; but as he is now—there is no getting hold of either end of him; we can’t khm ..ate him, which I sincerely desire—we can't put him down, which no roan desires. There are things in all governments—and in this in partial lar, that require cooking up before, the people should be served with it; but the Major hands the dishes over to the people raw and uncock’d, and lets every man dres9 his own dinnner—this is not right. And then, again, he is an enemy to party, and thinks that politicians shouldn’t meddie in money matters, when we all know that none of us would now be here without party, and that party can’t hold together without office, and that office aiut worth a fig without money; and so it comes to this—we’ve got a party, and a good strong one; and that party must keep all the offices, and the control of all the money: for, without money, the offices wont be good for nothin-w-and without offices the party will be all scattered: look at my own state—see how things work there; and just so they should here. We must have the Bank _we cant’t do anything without it. It is all good enough if we could get Biddle and his friends out of it—but seeing we have tried that and cant succeed, this must go down, and then we’ll have a new one after our own fashion—unfortunately, some will suffer—because this one must, I sup pose collect its debts and wind up—but what is the sufferings of a few in trade, compar’d to the breaking up of a political party, now all hitched together—think of all of us going back again to practice law—and you, Mr. Auditor, to keeping a school—and you. Mr. Secretary, to keeping a shop—and you to ploughing—and you to plantin coin—-and you to diggiug potatoes—and vou to printin newspapers. “And you, Major,” says he, “what would become of you?” I begun to craw l all over, and was just going to say something, but I thought I would’nt till he got through; and he reeled it off for more than an hour pretty much in the same way about things in general, and Major Down ing in particular—and as soon as he stopf, I got up and says l, has any body got nothin more to 3 \T a a aa! e Legislature of Pennsylva nia be earnestly requested to unite their endea i vors to obtain from the Congress of the United States, the adoption of such measures as may re lieve the present embarrassments ol the citizen! of Pennsylvania, and prevent the delay or the i "_a. r.i.r. _ _ _r _ (lUdllUUlllIICIIl Ul IH C nwi l\3 IlV/vr III |jlU"ltsa, I III i the promotion of the great interests of this com monwealth. j Resolved, That copies of the foregoing prearn ble and resolutions, signed by the officers of this meeting, be transmitted to the President of the United States, and to the Governor of this State, and also to the President of the Senate and Speak er of the House of Representatives of the United State*, and the Speakers of the Senate and House ol Representatives of the Legislatures of Penn sylvania, to biTlaid before their respective bo dies Resolved, That these proceedings be publish ed in the city papers, and the editors of newspa i pers generally, throughout the state, be request ed to c/*pv the same.

The following letter from Washington, whicl we copy from the Baltimore Republican of thi morning, contains intelligence of a highly impor fant naiure. The editor, who, we suppose, ii acquainted with his correspondent, says that hi cannot vouch for the authenticity of the infonna i tloo; but the complexion of our relations wit! France at the time when Mr Livingston left thii j country on his mission, renders it by no meani 'improbable We expressed our conviction, thei —founded on what we thought conclusive evi denre—that th vim T i j y k withers are unwrung.” We are not the ad\o cates of consolidation—we were not the advocates of the bloody bill”—every body knows what we think of the Kitchen Cabinet—we are the friends of the true rights of the States. And we are—what we are proud of—what we glory in— the warm, uncompromising, unalterable advo cates and friends of the Liberty and the Union of the States. Is there cause for denunciation it. this? If so, let it come—“ on horror's head let horrors accumulate. W e are absolutely disgusted at the abuse whir.;; is poured out upon Mr. McDuffi* by the Admin istration prints; and although it is not for u. particularly, to defend him, we cannot refrain from the expression of our sentiments on the 'uh ject. The time has been when we opposed Mr McDuffie’s political views—to many of them wt are now unalterably opposed—but we never he abated to do justice to his great and commanding talents—to his character as a man—and his in telligerice as a statesman. We always regarded him as a powerful opponent of the men and mea sures we sustained; nor did his repeated succes ses and triumphs serve to lessen our opinion of his talents as one of the leaders of a great politi cal party. We were accustomed, ourselves, to treat Mr. MtDuffie with the respeet which was due to his station and to his personal character, and others seemed disposed to pursue the same touise. However much his movements were de precated—however strenuously he was opposed —however erroneous his sentiments were consi dered to be—and however vigorously attacked they were—he met with that courteous treatment in general which showed that often his opponent? 4 regretted more that he was not of them, than were angry that he was against them. But what do we now see and hear? Those prints which arc basking in the sunshine of Exe I* 5 w mvv v 111 ix it u ii j i piujci i uy opprobrious to apply to this gentleman. Abuse is lavished upon him with an open hand, and ail the old and stale tricks of defamation resorted to for the purpose of lessening him in public esti mation. Can this succeed? Can the force of his argu ments be broken—the strength of his reasons be diminished—the pungency of his remarks be neu tralized—by such a course? Surely not. There is too much good sense, certainly, in the people Thomas Wright, Esq. of Queen Anne, has been elected Speaker of the Maryland House of Delegates, and Lewis Gassaway, Esq. Clerk of that body. H. P. C. Wilson, of Somerset, has been chosen a State Senator, in the place of Mr Dennis, now a member of Congress. Having no speeches to report to day, we arc enabled to give the latest of Major Do*vning‘= popular letters. The Major’s Cabinet Mamie? to will be anxiously looked for. The Commissioner of the General Land Office complains of the arrears of business in his de partment, and recommends the creation of va rious new officers therein, such as—one chief clerk at a salary of 81,700 per annum; one clerk at 81,500; live at 81,400; ten at 81,150; and I thirteen at 81,000: making, in all, thirty clerks and also one draughtsman at 81,500; one assist- Ij ant draughtsman at 81,150; one messenger at 8700; and two assistant messengers at 8350. The pressure of the rnonty market at Ne* York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, con tinues unusually great. We might fill our co- I Iumns with extracts on the subject from the jour nals of those cities. The Richmond Enquirer certainly does not agree with the President as to the precise time I and manner of withdrawing the Deposites.” has taken the'Enquirer a great while even to sav that much.

Distressing.— On the afternoon of the 25th ultimo, the house of Mr. Anderson White, of Stafford County, .Va. was consumed by tire.— The tire originated in the roof, and so rapid were the flames, (the wind being high,) that it proved utterly impossible to save any portion of its con tents. _'____ The imprisonment of young Morton, in Bos ton, has created quite a controversy between the newspapers of Boston; also, at Montreal, a little sharp shooting on the subject has taken place one party contending that the authorship of such a work as Misseritnus is a more flagrant offence than the one for which he stands committed. Large quantities of white dolphins have re cently paid a visit to Quebec, after an absence ot 35 years Iroin that port! items and remarks. Hebrew Reform.—The Chief Rabbi, and others of his persuasion who are learned in the Hebrew law, have with the consent of the high er authorities, laid down and promulgated a new organixation for the celebration of divine worship in'the Grand Duchy of Weimer. The service is to be read in the German Language, with the excepton of certain passages in the lhorab, which are allowed tube read in the Hebrew for the satisfaction of some of the more aged of the com inunitv. Unmarried females are henceforward to be admitted to join in the worship of their Marker. 7his breathing world”—It is stated in for eign prints, that an ingenious Parisian has invent ed a substance which, in color, firmness and elas ticity, exactly resembles human flesh. That he might display the virtues of his discovery to advantage, he has modelled a figure of the Em peror Napoleon, who is represented as reclining on a couch, apparently asleep Tfte motion of respiration is so closely imitated, as to give to the fi»ure the appearance of breathing, as though in a gentle slumber. Though this etfct is mere ly raechancial, it is said greatly to assist the iliu sion.

Many of the old i- I 1 L I _ L. f n.A.-n/kk.'iol nl'Uisf l/*d promenades anti utius h.d conseuated to this usage have been illegally built upon, from the enhanced value of property, and the all grasping spirit of lucre, which have thus obliterated these breathing places, or lungs, as they may be termed, of a densely populated citv. that are preserved with such scrupulous care in Paris and all Continental towns. _ [communicated. J Mr.,Snowden:—There is a sentiment, or ex pression of opinion, id Mr. Polks s speech, well calculated to alarm every thinking man in this country: it is this:—4* fiv (General Jackson, the President of the United States,) is above tpe reach and power of any remarks made here, [in ihe Congress of the United States, by the imme diate representatives of the majority of the peo pie 1” It is true that this is only a reiteration of what has frequently been before asserted by officers whose very existence almost depend up on the President’s will, and by a venal pieas. But when before has an independent representa tive of the people so far forgotten what was due to himself and to the nation, as to proclaim such a sentiment in his place m the House of Kepre_ seotatives? It has been left for the champion of 44 the party” to make this degrading assertion. Let this man worship become general, and give an ambitious and designing President the purse ant! the sword,—and, my 've shad not be long without an EMPEROR. It is time for the people to open their eyes* r 1 Biiutus. [communicated. J Mr. Snowden:—\ have been informed that a part of the money which was received from the public at the late fair, and which, they were told, was to be applied to the purchase of a library for Christ Church Sunday* School, has been appro priated to other purposes. I hope this is not true. When l go to these fairs, sir, I certainly do not lay out my money with the expectation “of receiving an equivalent for it, but to aid the cha rities which they may be pledged to promote; and I do not at all like that what I intended, and was led to believe, should go towards a specified object, should be expended in aid of others, to which I may be opposed. There can be no doubt, that those who have the management of the money received on such occasions have no discretion in the disposal of it, but are as much trustees for certain purposes as the Managers of r>#. y■ a Sunday School any other benevolent So ciety. These views, sir, are concurred in, l know, by many who, like myself, have hitherto befriend ed ladies’ fairs, and it depends upon this case whether they will countenance them any longer. B.

Unpleasant situation.—Yesterday, as Mr. John Davenport, carpenter, was engaged at woik on the roof of a house in Pearl street, his feet slipped and the surface being wet, he descended till his bodv passed half way over the eaves, at which moment he had the presence of mind to seize firm hold of the gutter, and retain it till a ladder could be raised for his relief, when he was taken off, without injury, though at the last point of ex haustion.— Boston Post, It 19 truly a remarkable circumstance that a country in time of profound peace, with abundant crops at high prices, and unusual health prevail in", with every branch of trade in successful op eration, should all at once be brought to a con dition of universal pressure and alarm. In cast ing about for the cause, no other, at all adequate, appears, than the miserable tampering of the Ex ecutive with the great financial engine of the country; and that this is the cause, is now con ceded on all hands.

It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica tion of forty-eight hours CERTIFICATES. From the Hon. John Cocke, Member of the House of Re presentatives in Congress. Wa&hibgtow, tfanb 22,1826. My son having been afflicted for five years with white swelling, and having applied every reme dy recommended by the most eminent physicians within my reach without success, 1 at length procured one jug of Dr Judkins’ Patent Specific Ointment, and made the application according to the directions ac companying the Ointment, and state, for the oenefit of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health ever since. I have no doubt that to the Ointment alone he is indebted; for nothing else was used for more than nine months before the application of the Oint ment. Respectfully, Johx Cocke Dr. Wra. Guoton, Washington City. From L P. W. Batch* Esq Counsellor at Law, F. ede Frbubmck, Md. May 6,1831.

From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con g> us, dated WusijrbTojr, January 22, 1829. Sxa—It ha* been my wish, fora considerable tin e, to communicate to you the good effect with which 1 have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins, and which I now understand is made and sold by agent* appointed by yourself, I have applied this j Omtment during the last three years to every species of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure in every instance. I consider it the most decided and j efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause what it may} and 1 have found nothing so good for j wounds of any description. It may be proper to j add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling, j given over by the most distinguished physicians as in- curable, and which they decided would, without ampu- Ution, prove fatalto the patient, ivas, under my imme diale notice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment, and the patient is in fine health. His limb affected by J the tumor being restored to a perfect state of sound ness. Also that the leg of an aged man which had been wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur face from the knee to the foot, and which, for more than two years, had been considered incurable, wasef- j TectuaMy cured by the application of Judkins* Oint ment. 1 mention these two cases, which fell under my immediate notice and management, as a decided evb denceof the efficacy ofthis remedy in cases of tumor and of ulcers* 1 haveexpe.ienced, as decidedly, the good effect of this remedy in the cure of Felons, and of every species of fresh wound, it seems to me that any one who wll observe on the operation of this Oint ment, must be satisfied as to its beneficial effect, lean with the utmostconfidence recommend the use ofthis valuable remedy, lam, sir, very respectfully, JOHK raLZAVXRBO.

Health SecuveAv^s-#^ ir» y the use of the Hygeian Vegetable Universal JLf Medicine* of the British College of Health, Lon don, which have obtained the approbation and recom mendation of thousands who have been cured, in con sumptions, cholera morbus, inflammations, internally or externally? dyspepsia, fevers, ague, indigestion, bi Jious or nervous affections, and all diseases of the liver; yellow fever, gout, rheumatism,lumbago* tic doloreux, dropsy, St. Vitus'* d*nce, epilepsy, apoplexy, paraly sis, pahy, green sickness, and all obstruction* to which the female form i* so distressingly liable, and which s>snds 19 many of this fairest portion of the creation, to their untimely graves; small pox, measles, whooping cough, scarlet fever, asthma, jaundice, gravel, 9tone, and all urinary obstructions? fistula, piles, strictures, ruptures, and syphilis in all its stages; constipated bow els, worms, scurvy, itchings of the skin, king s.evi, and all cutaneous disorders; in short, every complaint to which the human frame is so direfully subject, un der all their varied forms and names; as the Hygeian conviction is, that man is subject to one only real Disease,-that is, TO THE IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD, —from whence springs every complaint that can possibly assail his complicated frame; anil that it r _A...I __ fhie vital nnr* stream ot come commixed, through the negligence of parents? the ignorance or maltreatment of the Doctors; or the vicious or gormandizing propensities of us all. This .valuable Medicine, being composed only ol vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted, on oath, as containing not one particle of mercurial, mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un congenial to the nature ol man, and therefore destruc tive to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un der every stage of human suffering; the most pleasant and benign in it>operation, and at the same time the most searching out the root of every complaint, how ever deep, and of performing a cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, anil being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear of catchine cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustomed habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken to excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the fact; and extensive use of them has already verified its truth in this country. These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak, the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, because they clear the body of it# bad humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the saYest and most efficacious raenicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, costiveness, &c. The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst. One, two, or three powders may be taken throughout the day, mixed in half a wine glass of water. Extract of a Letter to Dr. Moat. Sin: The motive which has induced me to writethis letter to you, is, that I might be instrumental in the recommendation of Morrison’s Universal Vegetable Medicines to the sfflicted, which, by the Divine bless ing. has cured me of the Scarlet Fever. My case waj as follows: Whilst returning from Washington to Alex andria, 1 was taken very ill, which obliged me, on my arrival, to retire suddenly to bed, but could not sleep, and the next day my throat became so much inflamed, that 1 could scarcely swallow; and my face, breast, and body, presented evident symptoms of the great dan gt-r l was in, and I knew not what to do; Calomel or Mercury I abhorred as poison, and therefore desired no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, who had experienced th;.* good effect of the Hygeiao Pills in a case or two of her own, most strenuously advised me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance, I con sented tp, and commenced by taking eight No. 1 pills at night, and eight No. 2 the next morning, and con tinued taking, increasing daily, morning and evening, until r took sixteen No. 2 at a time, which were dis solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, 1 could not otherwise swallow them. 1 confess the dose made me feel somewhat qualmish, &c.; but the pills and the powder#, of which I took one or two tea-spoonsfull a day, operated well, and the final result was, that l fell into a sound sleep, of which I had been deprived, and the next morning awoke in a state of oerspiration, freed from fever, cool and comfortable, anu my reason (.for l had been deranged in mind) returned; and on the 9th day from the time I was first taken, I left my room, and have ever since enjoyed better health than 1 did before. You have, my leave to make what use you please of this. I wish you success, and am, sir, your obedient friend, MARY ANN FOWLER. Alexa. D. C.
