SAM H. P LEE. Baltimore, August, 1828. Doctor H. P. f.E«, New London, Conn. Dear Sie—It is now upwards of twenty years that I have used your New London Bilious Pills in ray 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 their early and timely use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past; and having, 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 York 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 I had without this test, I be gan to 9uspect that all was not fair in medicine, as well as i» politics, and called at several of our apothe caries for your pills, with your written signature. I found imny without this test, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs Keerls*, who assured me they had them direct from you. 1 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 seffin possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this information. (L7* 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 hnv onil if’ oimip-rl nt font in mu nu n lunflorritimr im. n j mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, and prepared by me; bul if ojtly the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and lo be avoided.

The ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE forthe coun try is printed on Tuesday, Thursday, anu Saturday. _ _n4i All advertisements appear in both paper are inserted at the usual rates. —_ MR. BINNEY’S SPEECH, On the Removal of the Depositee. [concluded] I beg permission of the House to say a word concerning the humble individual who ha, the honor of addre^ing it. Had I been a director of the Bank of the United States, during the years in which it has been its misfortune not to have received the approbation of the Secreta ry I should have been associated with men who are an ornament to the city in which they live, and an honor to their country. Men, w ho, tio earliest’youth to their present matui e a^e> ha'^ been beloved, respected, and honored by all around them, and w ho are as much the stand ard of all of the virtues, private, social, and pa triotic, as the coins of your mint are the stand ard of your currency, and without any of the base alloy which you mingle in your coins, to make them fit for the use and abuse of the world. If 1 had been called upon to act with such men as these, in regard to measures of any kind, and had differed from them in my judgment, 1 should have deemed it almost an actof tieason against the authority of superior intelligence, or of arrogance, exposing myself to reprehen sion or contempt. I should have followed them fearlessly wherever they led, and with unshaken confidence, that they could not lead me where either wisdom or virtue would be exposed to re proach. But, sir. I had not this honor: I was hot a director of the Bank in 1829, 1830 nor in 1331; and, though chosen a director in 1832, 1 left Philadelphia in January, to pass my win ter here, and met the Board but once aiU i my return, to show respect to the Committee of Inauirv appointed hy this House. Of the measures now to be adverted to, I was not in formed, except as the public and this House have been informed. I can speak of them, therefore, without the influence arising from either participation or privity. As to my pro fessional relations to the Bank, I am proud to belong to a profession which has many distin guished members in both Houses of this Con gress—a profession which the confidence and affection of this People have raised, in more than one instance, to the highest office in its gift. I will not degrade this honorable profes sion! I will not degrade my own rank in it, however humble, by condescending to inquire, what extent of compensation would induce an honorable man to sell his conscience, and his principles, as slaves, to his client! Sir, the great accusation against the Bank, is, that she has endeavored to obtain political pow er, and interfered with the election of the Presi dent of the United States. Grant the design of the Bank, sir; and what then? It has not suc ceeded. The letter of the Secretary, is an argu ment to shew that it has not succeeded, and that the question of re-charter is settled against the Bank by the voice of the People at the last elec tion. The election of the President—-the ap pointment of the Secretary—the elections for this House, were all completed before the depo sites were removed; and these are held up, to shew that the design imputed to the Bank, has failed and fallen to the ground. Then I ask, sir, what is the character of that act, which has removed the deposites?—Is it preventive, i» it vindictive, sir? It is punishment directed ji gainst the Bank for an imputed design, that has wholly failed in its execution, and the victim of the infliction is not the Bank, but the country. If it is a matter of grave belief, that the purpose of the Bank was that which is imputed, and that the elections have given out the answer of the People to it, what more triumphant refutation can be adduced of the reasons, which find either a around of apprehension, or a motive of pun ishment,in acts which have thus failed of effect? If the premises belong to the case, the true con clusion is, that the people are in no danger from attempts to gain political power by the devices of the Bank, and that she may go on to the conclu sion of her charter, performing her constitution al duties to the countrv, as she has always done with fidelity and success, leaving the question of renewing the charter, to settle the extent ol her punishment. But, sir. I deny the charge. I say the design was not entertained, and that not a particle of evidence has been produced to infer the contra ry. The Board have printed and published, and have assisted in printing and publishing, for the purpose of communicating to the peo 1 pie information in regard to the nature and operations of the Bank, and to remove unfoun 1 ded prejudices, or repel injurious calumnies on the institution entrusted to their care.” This is the declared purpose of all they have done, and they standupon the sacred principle of self defence in asserting their right to do it. That there was nothing in the Veto Message to justi fy the circulation of the Review, which the gen tleman from Tennessee has noticed, is more than I admit; and when the gentleman shall as sert, upon his own authority, that the Board have given currency to a scurrilous pamphlet against any one, he will find me ready either to deny the fact, or to admit its impropriety. The Constitution secures to every person, natural and political, the right of printing and publish ing, being responsible for the abuse of it. It pro hibits Congress from passing any law abridging the freedom of the press. If the charter had inserted a provision to restrain the Board of Directors from printing or publishing, it would have been null and void. An interpretation of the charter to restrain it, is equally so. They have the universal right, subject to the constitu tional corrective through the judicial tribunals of the country; but to condemn, and then to try them, to punish and then to hear, belongs not to the tribunals of this earth, nor to the Consti tution of this country. Sir, the change of the deposites is an extra ordinary mode of preventing their application to the purposes of political power. Before their removal, they were in a Bank not possessing political power, nor capable of using it. They are now wielded by those who possess it, and who are more or less than men if they do not wish to keep it Then they were in one Bank, under one direction. Now they will be in fifty. Then they were in a Bank which political power could not lay open to its inquiries and control —now they are in Banks that have given a stip ulation for submitting all their acts and con cerns to review. Then, if these deposites sus tained any action at all, it was in the safest form for the people—action against power in office—now its action is in support of that pow er and tends to the augmentation of what is al r6’l savgrinacoenclugsl’on, upon this point, if these publications are deemed by this House to have been unlawful, return the deposites till the Bank has been heard. Go to the scire facias-, give to I the Bank that trial by jury which is secuied b> its charter, and is the birth-right of all. Ask the unspotted and unsuspected tribunals of the coun try for their instruction. Arraign the Bunk up on the ground either of sedition, or grasping at political power. There was ample time for it, and still is; and there is a great precedent for it, which I commend to the consideration ot 111s House. Sir, in the worst days of one of the ^°Ist princes of England, (1 mean Charles the 2d) the love of absolute rule induced him to make an at tempt upon the libertie#of the city of London, whose charter he desired to overthrow He complained that the Common Council had tax ed him with a delay of justice, and had Pres sed the people with an ill opinion of him; ana, y infamously packing the Bench, having promo ed one Judge, who was not satisfied on the point, and turned out another, who was not cleai, lie succeeded in obtaining a judgment of seizure, under which the liberties of that ancient city re mained in his hands during the residue of his reign, and until the revolution expelled ins sue cessor. But, when the principles of the British Constitution came in with the House of Orange, j an early statute of William and Mary reversed the judgment as illegal and arbitrary; and irom that time it has been the opprobrium of the Bench, and the scorn of the profession. The account of it which is given by Burnet is th‘‘Tne Court, findingthat the City of London could not be wrought on to surrendei then charter, resolved to have it condemned by a judgment in the King’s Bench. Jones had died in May; so now Pottenger and Treby were chiefly relied on in this matter. Sawyer was the Attorney General, a dull hot man, and ioi ward to serve all the designs of the Court. He undertook, by the advice of Sanders, a leuint u but very immoral man, to overthrow the char ter. The two points upon which they rested ‘the cause were, that the Common Council had petitioned the King, upon a prorogation of Par liament, that it might meet on the day to which it was prorogued, and had taxed the proroga 1 .1 a Und /x/ieojionorl n rlohi V Of lion as uiiii wmiu wt*v» J c justice: this was construed to be the raising or 4 sedition, and the possessing the people with an 4 ill opirion of the King.” hen the matter was brought near judg merit Sanders, who had laid the whole thing, was made Chief Justice; Pembroke, who was not satisfied on the point, being removed to the 4 Common Pleas, on North’s advancement. 4 Doblin, a Judge of the King’s Bench, was found ‘notto be clear, so he was turned out, and Wil 4 kins came in his room. When sentence was to 4 be given, Sanders was struck with an apo 4 plexy, upon which great reflections were made; 4 but he sent his judgment in writing, and died a 4 few days after.” As the only precedent which the books present to us of forfeiture of charter for sedition, or an interference with political power, it is not without instruction. Sir, these reasons of the Secretary being one and all insufficient to justify the removal of the deposites, the question of remedy is the only one that remains. The state of the country requires the return; but the question of return has no thing to do with the renewal of the charter. If renewal were the object, I should -say, do not put them back, leave them as they are; make no provision for the future, and see, at the end of two years, to what relief the people will fly.— But, sir, let us save the country from this unne cessary suffering. Return them, and the mists will clear off from the horizon, and the face of nature smile, as it did before. Return them, and make some provision for the day when the cauiial of this Bank is to be withdrawn from the country, If it is to be withdrawn. 1 rovioe some control, some regulation, of your currency. The time is still sufficient for it, and the coun try requires it. If, indeed, tliis Bank is not to be continued, nor another to be supplied, noi a control devised to prevent the State Banks from shooting out of their orbits, and bringing on confusion, and ruin, then, I confess that I see no benefit in putting off the evil for two years long er. The storm must come; in which every one must seize such plank of safety as he may, out of the common wreck; and it is not the part, ei ther of true collage, or of provident caution, to wish it deferred for a little time longer. Sir, I have done. I have now closed my re marks upon the question of the public deposites, second in importance to none that has occurred in the course of the present Administration, whe ther we regard its relation to the public faith, to the currency, or to the equipoise of the different departments of our Government. It is with un feigned sati>faction that I have raised my feeble voice in behalf of the amendment offered by the gentleman from South Carolina, whose enlight ened labors in this great cause, through a course of years, have inseparably connected his name with thnsn nrineinles unon which the security, the value, and the enjoyment ol property de pends; and it will he sufficient reward for me if 1 shall be thought not to have impaired the ef fect of his efforts, nor to have retarded the pro gress of those principles to their ultimate estab lishment. For myself, I claim the advantage of saying, that, as I have not conciously uttered a sentiment in the spirit of mere party politics, so l trust that my answers to the Secretary will not he encountered in that spirit. If the great and permanent interests of the country should be above the influence of party, so should be the discussions which involve them. It ought not to be, it cannot be, that such questions shall be decided in this House as party questions. The question of the Bank is one of public faith—that of the currency is a question of national pros perity; that of the constitutional control of the Treasury, is a question of national existence.— It is impossible that such momentous interests shall be tried and determined by those rules and standards which, in things indifferent in them selves, parties usually resort to. They concern our country at home and abroad, now and to all future time; they concern the cause of freedom every where; and, if they shall be settled under the influence of any considerations but justice and patriotism—sacred justice and enlightened patriotism—the dejected friends of freedom, dis persed throughout the earth, the patriots of this land, and the patriots of all lands, must finally surrender their extinguished hopes to the bitter conviction, that the spirit of party is a more i deadly foe to free institutions than the spirit of 1 despotism.

Johnson Green, at tfte corner of 20th street and 6th Avenue. The fac torv proper was on the street, and about 100 feet long built of brick, two stones h.gh; a building attached to it facing the Avenue, of wood was about the same dimensi buildings were occupied in the manufacture of halr doth, fancy bottoms, &c., and emp^yed over 100 persons. There were on the Pre™ a very costly and extensive machinery, and a large stock of manufactured and unmanufac tured materials. Among them were 3o,000 lbs of manufactured hair, 3,000 lbs. of which wer packed, to be shipped to Boston this morning. The press was entirely filled last night with hair-cloth, containing many pieces, each ol which contained from 46 to 50 yaids. These buildings, with ail their contents, were entirely consumed. In addition to this loss of Messrs. Johnson Green, there were two stables, with the con tents, burnt, one of which belonged to the firm, including two very valuable horses, and a ba rouche. The other was owned by Mr. House W King of the Netherlands.—Balt. Gaz. Hereafter the special order of the day will r.’ea since in New York.

From the Xe* York Journal of Commerce. Well* Mr. Biddle is re-elected President ot the ■ffrtaa siSSL‘£t3SSS& sides are heartily sick of their fruitless efforts, n nd would be glad of help. A united and j udi ‘L. movement in this city, in a direction which shall shun the political points of the case we have no doubt, will be well received at W ash incrton. It has been rumored for two or three davs past that an overture for the adjustment of the question was about to be made by Mr. Web ber We are encouraged to hope it may be true, from the fact, that, on Tuesday last, (see Congressional proceedings,) he announced to the Senate that, at an early day, he should move that the whole subject be referred to the Com mittee on Finance—of which Committee Mr. Webster is Chairman. His plan will, of course, be wise and patriotic. It will be based on the principles of compro mise, for all efforts in any other way would be hopeless. On the whole, the prospect is deci dedly favorable to the establishment of a Na tional Bank without delay; either a new one here, or the renewal of the old one at Plnladel ohia. The settlement of the question would at once relieve the commercial community, tor it would put an end to the causes of the present embarrassment.

These several appeals from the Circuit Court of the United States for Alexandria, were, on the motion of Edmund I. Lee, counsel for the ap pellants, submitted to the consideration of the Court on the records; no counsel ha\ ing ap peared for the appellees. The Court adjourned till to-morrow, 11 o’ clock, A. M. The Clerk was directed to inform the gentle men of the Bar, that the Court would proceed to call over the docket to-morrow, and that all ~auses not ready for trial would be eithei post poned, or put to the foot of the docket. LONGEVITY. The comparative longevity of the inhabitants of different sections of this country has been the subject of some remark, but probably not of complete investigation. Dr. Dwight, in his rra vels estimates the chance of a man living to be 45 in Connecticut, as 2 to 1 to the chance in Georgia—no doubt an exaggeration. W illiams in his°History of Vermont, after giving a view of the inhabitants of the different sections, un- der 16 years old, concludes from the result, that the Middle and Northern States are most favo- rable to longevity, and the Southern to rapidity of production and increase. This, however, is not a true criterion, as it only indicates the in crease. Where the increase is equal the com parative longevity may be inferred pretty near ly from this ratio. The average increase in Maine and New Hampshire, for example, is about 22 per cent, in 10 years, and in South Ca rolina about the same; but in S. C. according to official returns, only 11 4-10 in 100 reach 45 years, while in Maine and N. H. taking the mean, 14 1-10 in 100 attain that age. In S. C. too, more than half the people are under 16 while a large majority in M.. and N. H. are over 16. This observation holds true of the European countries, as compared with ours. In fiance the proportion of those under 10 years is a lit tle more than half of the whole; in Naples, the same; in England, less than one-fourth; in the U. States, nearly one-third—indicating the dif ferent ratios of increase hft^CreoVes are said to Tr&&iarfcabiy long-lived. In a small province of Peru, containing 70,000, there were ni L9 eight lyayiifr I31^thiard of the Province died in his 145th year, leaving 800 lineal descendants. A ’Canadian paper states that within eight years, 10 Indians have died at the Caghnawa settlement, containing less than 1,000 inhabit ants, who were over 100 years. More than 9 out of ten of the meals of these people consist of Indian corn cooked in different modes pecu liar to the aborigines. The Indians, it is thought, have about their fair proportion of aged. Mar tha, a Mohegan, reached 120. Orono, a Penob scot chief, died in 1801 at 113, and his wife in 1808, at 115; Shenandoah,'"an Oneida, in 1816, at 113; Thomas, a Natick, in 1727, at 110.

PUBLIC ATTENTION IS respectfully solicited by the subscriber, to an in valuable preparation, the merits of which have been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted testimony DR. RELFE’S BOTANICAL DROPS are every year increasing their long established repu tation. They have outlived many rival preparations, and are continually gaining upon public confidence. The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he reditary predisposition in the patient, and generally appear under the various and distressing shapes of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony's Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foal and Ob stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and Venereal Taint. In the last mentioned condition of the system, the Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk- ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus prevent the patient from entailing the seed9 of an he reditary disease on his offspring- Dr. Kelfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red j blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on the skin—and other diseases of the external surface; and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics known, to free the system from humors j A physician of eminence, who had witness'd theef- ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack£ nowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the best medicine known, for the complaints for which it is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at the bead of the whole class of such remedies.

Va- July 15, 18>0. THE public will be pleased to understand that 1 was the original discoverer of Judkins' Ointment, and sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817, until the expiration of the same; but, having connect ed myself with Dr. Judkins in the commencement, I permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I have made an improvement in the same, and taken out a pa tent thereon. N- SHEPHERD. Imposition having been practised upon the nub lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jud kins' Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself ol the authority granted to him in his letters patent, now to call the Ointment after his own name, Henceforth it will be known by the name of SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC 01 NT MENT, (formerly Judkins'.) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effects, I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded that the Ointment would occasionally fall into many hands, some of whom would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process —ne vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera ted Under these considerations, I secured the origi nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases, aome of which have so long baffle J the skill of me dical science: 1st White swellings of every description; 2d Sore legs and ulcers of long standing, 3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose hardened tumors in women's breasts, which oftentimes terminate in ulcerated cancers; 4th Felons; or what some people know by thename of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains of the joints; n_:__ j i_:__ r __: UUI 0|JICI1I!9 nuu I/I UIOVO v f Vi j UVJV/I v I v 111 w j ii* whatever part situate; 7th Tetters of ail kinds. In this complaint the pa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the pari out of water; 8th Chilblains or parts affected bvfro9t It is also one of the best remedies for burns and scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a short time. For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap plication?, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of any preparation of the mineral,) because it does not lay the patient fable to injury from exposure to cold. This Oimmerthas cured sores of many years stand ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming carious oi rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries, incret.se the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the pains 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 ungress. A A9HINGTON, Mar 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 within rav reach without success, I at length procured one jug of Dr Judkins* Patent Specific tJintment. and made the application according to the directions ac companying the Ointment, ana state, for the oenefit of the afflicted, that before one jug was used a perfect cure was effected. My son has enjoyed g»o.>d health ever since. I have no doubt that to the Ointment alone he is indebted; for nothing else was used for more J than nine months before the application of the Oint ment. Respectfully, Joijx Cocke Dr. Wm. Gunton, Washington City. From L P. IV. Butch, Fsq Counsellor at Law, F ede rick. Md FnC.DEH1CK, Md. May 6, 1831 Mr. C Herstons—Idetm it proper to state, for the >enefit of the public, that, several years since, two of nv children were affected with scald head of an inve ierate character. My family physician, Dr John T. Wilson, of Leesburg,* Va who was very skilful and ju dicious in bis practice, in vain endeavored by every means to effect a cure. At length Judkins’ Ointment was applied, and the affection was permanently reliev ed. Very respectfully, vour obedient servant, L. F- W. Balcu. From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con gress, dated W asuimgtor,January 2?, 1829. Sir—It has been my wish tor a considerable tune, to communicate to you the good effect with which I tiavcused the Ointment invented oy a Mr. Judkins, and which 1 now understand is made and sold by agents appointed t>v 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 ev^ry instance. I consider it the most decided and efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause whatit may; and l have found nothing so good for wounds of any description It may be proper to idd, that cue cure of a tumor called white swelling, given over bv the most distinguished physicians as in curable, and which they decided w^uld, without ampu- j tation, prove tatalto the patient, was, under my imme diale notice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment, and the patient is in fine health llis limb affected by the tumor being restored to a perfect slate of sound ness. A Iso that the leg of an aged man which had been wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur- 1 face from the knee to the foot, and which, for more j than two years, had been considered incurable, was ef-1 fectually cured by the application of Judkins* Oint ment. I mention these two cases, which fell under my immediate notice and management, as a decided evi dence of the efficacy of this remedy in cases of tumor and ofulcers: I have expo ienced, as decidedly, ihe 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 utmostconlidence recommend the use of this valuable remedy, lain, sir, very respectfully, Joax fa LI IF Kit HO.

This valuable Medicine, being composed only of vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted, on oath, as containing not >ne particle of mercurial, mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un congenial to the nature of 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 pi -asant and benign in it operation, and at the same time the most searching out the root of every complaint, how ever deep, and of perfoiming a cure, that was ever ottered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the h ast trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and 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 tear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way nr» r .i _a .1 L _ L fjiiirrem ironi men hwubiuiiicu iiuuus 'These pills cure all ca9es, and cannot be taken to excess Experience, which ia 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.
