than the mouth of the Susquehanna in conse-' quence of the ice, and was obliged to return with her passengers. Both ends of the Capitol resounded yester day with the facts and arguments and elo quence of able men against the Removal of the Deposites. We hear it said in Washington that the progress of truth is mighty! Some go so far as to say that the Deposites will be re placed—some say that the majority against re placing them will not be more than four or five. We give these rumors as wre hear them. We do not vouch for their correctness. Some derangement in the machinery of the Draw of the Washington Bridge, prevented persons, yesterday, for an hour or two, from crossing. In that time there had collected, at and about the Draw, near forty vehicles—such as stages, wagons, carts, drays, gigs, &c.—near twenty horses, and a crowd of foot passengers. This shows what a thoroughfare that Bridge is. The New York City Colonization Society, with the concurrence of the parent Board, have determined to form a settlement, on Christian principles, at Cape Mount, or some other eligi ble point, on the Coast ol Africa,” to be called “New York.” The co-operation of the State Society is expected in prosecuting the enter Drise. EDITOR'S CORRESPOXDENCE. Richmond, Jan. 6th, 1834. Dear Sir:—The stockholders of the Bank of Vircinia have this day, in general meeting, de termined, by a large majority, to RESCIND the agreement made with the Treasury Depart ment on the subject of the Deposites. Yours, respectfully. MARYLAND EXECUTIVE COUNCIL. Correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot. Annapolis, Monday Night, 12 o’clock. It is understood that the National Republican party in the Legislature, have, just agreed to support the following named gentlemen for the Executive Council: Geo. C. Washington, of Montgomery, Col. Thomas Veazy, of Ceil, Doct. Martin, of Talbot, Mr. Samuel Mass, of Baltimore, and it. W. Bowie, of Prince Georges. The Jackson candidates have not yet, I be lieve, been ageed upon. A new mode of entering stores.—On New Year’s eve, some persons, whether with an in tent to rob, or for mere malice, does not appear, exercised their ingenuity in breaking open stores by filling the lock of the store door of Mr. Jamison, 343 Water street, with powder, which by the application of a match, was blown off, and the door thrown open at the mercy of any one who might choose to enter. The noise alarmed Mr. Jamison; but not suspecting the cause he did not examine the premises until some time afterwards, w hen he found the door as above described. The door was considera bly crushed by the operation, and it is supposed that the ingenious burglers were interrupted in their intended entrance by some apprehen sions of danger, which induced them to aban don the enterprise.—AT. Y. Daily Adv. Xr* NOTICE.—A Sermon will be preached, by the leave of Providence, next Sabbath after noon, in the First Presbyterian Church, and a collection taken up, on behalf of the Female Onesimus Society. This Society—one of the most extensive in its r_*_ _ l i Ioeneiacuuus tu any in iu\vn—immgu cumposeu of females belonging to the First Presbyterian Church, is, nevertheless, confined, in its labors oflove, to no church, and no denomination; but goes with its munificence wherever leant is; and is only circumscribed in its benevolent ac tion by the limited nature of its means. In the congregation of whose members it is made up, not one hundred dollars have probably been ex pended, from the whole amount of funds entrus ted to its care during the entire period of its se venteen years successful operations. Last year it was enabled to struggle along, without mak ing any call upon the public whatever; and as a consequence, its treasury being exhausted, and ihe demand loud and pressing, it is hoped that z generous public will, as heretofore, both re member its claims, and, to a very liberal extent, encourage its efforts. __jan 9 HOUSE TO RENT. .rv The BRICK HOUSE at the intersection •iii of Cameron and Pitt streets, now occupied by Mr. Charles Gawler, is to rent.

Money and Exchanges.—The Banks discount ed liberally, and the Merchants generally are quite easy, yet in Wall street money is scarce, and Saturday was set down as a hard day.— The state of things is decidedly better than it was, and Stocks have recovered considerably from their depression. The rate on bills on En gland for the last packet was $4 51, 53 and 55c. the pound sterling, or 1 1-2, 2, and 2 1-2 per cent premium on 4 44. On France the rate is 5f 55 per dollar. These are lower rates than have ever been naid since the Bank of Entrland re sumed specie payments. Freights to England are better. The packets are filling up at 7-16 and l-2d per lb.

He examined, at length, the articles of agreement interred into by the Sec retary of the Treasury with the State Banks, and showed the impolicy, impropriety, and inexpe diency of the new arrangement. At half past three o’clock, Mr. SOUTHARD gave way for a motion to adjourn; and the Se nate adjourned. In the House of Representatives, after the pre sentation of petitions and receiving the reports of committees, Mr. BINNEY, of Penn., resum ed his speech on the subject of the Removal of the Deposites, commenced the day before. His argument was admitted to be one of the ablest ever made on the floor of the House. The rea sons of the Secretary of the Treasury were exa mined and refuted one by one; and the whole subject fully examined, both as to its unlawful ness and its inexpediency. Mr. BINNEY, not having concluded at the usual hour of adjournment, gave way for a mo tion to that effect; and the House adjourned.

It eases the pain and draws the fire out m a ShForinflamed women’s breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the medical faculty. It i» much safer than mercur.al ap. plication?, (as it does not contain the smallest atom ot any preparation of the mineral,) because it does not lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold.

WasuixoT>»!f, Mari h 22, 1826. Sir—My son having been afflicted for five years with white swelling, and having applied every reme dy recommended by the most eminent physicians j within my reach without success, I 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 benefit of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health ever since. 1 have no doubt that to the Ointment alone he is indebted* for nothing else was used tor more, than nine months before the application of the Oint ment. Respectfully, J°H!r Cock*. Dr. Wm. Gunton, Washington City. From L P. W. Batch, Esq Counsellor at Law, F edc* rick, Md Fbedbmcx, Md. May 6,1831. Mr. C Herstons—I deem it proper to state, for the benefit of the public, that, several years since, two ot my children were affected with scald head of an mve- j terate character. My family physician, Dr John T. Wilson, of Leetburg, Va. who was very skilful and ju dicious in hi* practice, in vam endeavored by every means to effect a cure. At length Judkins Ointment was applied, and the affection was permanently reliev Y#ry respectfully, your obedient servant, L> P• W. Balch. from the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con gress, dated Wasbixotos, January 22, 1829. §IR_it has been my wish, fora considerable time, to communicate to you the good effect with which 1 have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins, and which 1 now understand is made and sold by agents appointed by yourself, I have applied this Ointment during the last three years to every species of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure in every instance. 1 consider »t the most decided and efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause what it may? and I have found nothing so good for, 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 tation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under my imme diale^otice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment, and the patient is in fine health. His limb affected by the thmor being restored to a perfect state of sound ness. A Iso that th^leg of an aged man which had been wounded, aftd exhibited orfb dreadfully ulcerated sur-1 face from the*knee |o the foot, and which, for more j -than tyro years,had been considered incurable, wasef- j fectually cured by the application of Judxins* Oint-1 meat. I mention these two cases, which fell under my immediate mftice and management, as a decided evi dence of the efficacy of this remedy in cases of tumor and of ulcers*. I have experienced, as decidedly, the good effect of this remedy in the cure of Felons, and of kvery species of fresh wound. It seems to me that any one who wll observe on the operation of this Oint-1 raent, must be satined as to its beneficial effect I can with the utmost confidence recommend the use ofthis valuable remedy. lam, sir, very respectfully, Johx Tahafebro.

Sib* The motive which has induced me to writethis letter to vou, is, that I might be instrumental^ the recommendation of Morrison's Universal Vegetable Medicines to the afflicted, which, by the Divine bless ing has cured me of the Scarlet Fever. My case was 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 I could scarcely swallow; and my face, breast, and body, presented evident symptoms of the great dan ger I was in, and 1 knew not what to do; Calomel or Mercury 1 abhorred as poison, and therefore desired no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, who had experienced the good effect of the Hygeian Pi is in a case or two of her own, most strenuously advised me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance, 1 con sented to, 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 I took sixteen No. 2 at a time, which were dis solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, I could i not otherwise swallow them. 1 confess the dose made me feel somewhat qualmish, &c but the pills and the powders, of which 1 took one or two tea-spoonsfull a day, operated well, and the final result was, that I fell into a sound sleep, of which I had been deprived, and the next morning awoke in a state of perspiration, freed from fever, cool and comfortable, and my reason (for 1 had been deranged in mind) returned; and on the 9th day from the time 1 was first taken, 1 left my room, and have ever since enjoyed better health than I did before. You have my leave to make what use you please of this. 1 wish you success, and am, sir, your obedient friend. MARY ANN FOWLER. Alexa. D. C. March 14. 1833.
