On Tuesday last, Mr. Petrikin’s able report, concluding with the following resolutions, was taken up in the Senate of Pennsyi vania: 1. Resolved, That the present Bank of the United States ought not to be rechartered by Congress. 2. Resolved, That the Government Depo sites, which have been withdrawn from the Bank of the United States, ought not to be re stored.” For these resolutions, Mr. Boyd (a Bank man) offered a substitute, resolving, That the present Bank of the United States should be re chartered”—that the withdrawal of the Govern ment Deposites is considered unconstitution al, illegal, and unjlist”—and that the revenue hereafter collected should “be placed in the Bank of the United States.” On the question thus presented, an animated debate took place, Messrs. Ringland, (Speak er.) Petrikin, Penrose, Dickey, and Reed, op posing the Bank. A motion to postpone the whole subject was 1 lost; and then Mr. Packer (an anti-mason) pro posed to postpone Mr. Boyd’s substitute in fa vor of the Bank, for the purpose of introducing another, declaring that, in the opinion of the Legislature of Pennsylvania, a Bank of the United States ought to be established during the present session ot the IVational Legislature.” The resolution “for a Bank of the United States” was lost—11 voting for it; 21 against it. The first resolution of Mr. Boyd’s substitute, for the recharter of the Bank of the U. States, was negatived—10 only voting for it; 22 against lt The second resolution of Mr. Boyd’s substi tute, declaring the withdrawal of the deposites unconstitutional, illegal, and unjust,” and the means of producing the unparallelled degree of distress in monied ^affairs which now exists,” was also negatived; 10 for it, 22 against it. The third resolution of Mr. Boyd’s substitute, for making the United States Bank the public depository, was then negatived: yeas 12, nays 20. The question recurring on Mr. Petriken’s res olutions against the Bank, and against the res toration of the deposites, was decided as follows, on the first resolution: Yeas—Messrs. Cunningham, Dickey, Fore, Geiger, Hopkins, Kern. Klingensmith, Krebs, McCulloch, Matthews, Middlecoff, Penrose, Pet rikin. Read, Sangston, Smyser, Stoever, Tay lor. and Ringland—Speaker—19. Nays—Messrs. Baker, Boyd, Breck, Fulerton, Hassinger, Hays, Hibshman, Jackson, Mech lin cr, Packer, Robinson, Rogers, and Smith— 13° On the second resolution, the yeas and nays were the same as on the first resolution, except that on the second, Mr. Cunningham voted in the negative: the second resolution passing by a vote of IS to 14. This is considered a decided triumph. Globe.
The Agricultural Interest.—Whatever affects the prosperity of the commercial part of the com munity, must, sooner or later, bear with propor tionate force on every other avocation of life. The agricultural interest, it is true, may be un affected by it, even for weeks and months after the torn ido has swept over the cities and towns, prostrating in its course thousands of honest, in dustrious, and valuable citizens. The causes of this are apparent T he planter and farmer send their produce to market only once or twice a year, and having sold it, and received the mo ney, they cannot be affected by the subsequent fluctuations in its value, until the crop again ri pens, and is thrown into market. Then comes their turn. The golden stream of commerce,” which poured its treasures into their lap, not less than into that of the merchant, who is the inter mediate agent between the producer and the consumer, is cnoKeu up. Ciiuerprise is cuecKeu. •‘Credit, and public trust’twixt man and man,” are gone—the value of money alone is enhanc ed while every thing else which money buys is lessened in value—the rich become richer, and the poor poorer. It is the harvest, the saturna lia of brokers and shavers—while the merchant first, and then the mechanic, and last of all the agriculturalist, fee! the shock. This natural course of things is exempt tied and illustrated by passing events. In our cities and towns, credit has been superceded by distrust—and bankrupt cy has followed bankruptcy with fearful rapidi ty. All classes of the community, who are im mediately dependent upon towns for their sup port, are writhing under its effects, being thrown out of employment, starvation staring them and their families in the face, and even hope extinguished. Presently, when the planter comes to market with his tobacco, and gets $5 per hundred for a quality for which the state of the foreign demand would, under other circum stances, justify the purchaser in giving $8; and when the farmer obtains GO and 70 instead of 90 and 100 cents per bushel for his wheat, he. too, will feel the curse of those evil counsels which have hurled the country thus suddenly from an unexampled state of prosperity to a condition of almost unprecedented distress.— Let not the agricultural part of our readers flat ter themselves with the hope that they will es cape the evils which have fallen with such fear ful frce upon other classes of the community, j As well might a man plunge the steel into his heart, and expect that his head and hand would escaoe the consequences of his rashness. Com merce is the main artery of the moneyed sys tem. Obstruct its free circulation, and paraly sis and ruin are the inevitable consequences. Lynchburg Virginian. It is with pleasure we have it in our power to state, that the Corporation notes of this town wifl be redeemed bv bankable paper” at any time between the hours of 9 and 3 o’clock eve ry day, or they will be received in payment for notes due at the Farmers’ and Mechanics’ Bank of this town.— Georgetown (D. C.) Gazette. Mississippi.—The Natchez Courier and Jour nal contains a letter from the Hon. Harvey Cage, in which he declares his determination to disregard party trammels, and, on the great question now before the country, faithfully re present his constituents, and we are gratified to learn, that Judge Black has authorized the an nunciation of the same determination. Telegraph. m Philadelphia Gazette Office, March 22—6, P. M. Fire at the Merchants' lCoffee House.—About three o’clock on Saturday afternoon, the roof of the large and extensive building, occupied as the Merchants’ Coffee House under the super intendance of Mr. J. M. Sanderson, was discov ered to be in flames. The first notice of the fire was communicated to Mr. Sanderson, by a person in the street, who saw volumes of smoke issuing from the roof, in the western side. The alarm was immediately sounded, and our ac tive fire companies were promptly on the spot. The flames progressed downward no further than the first floor from the roof, they being ar rested by the infatigable exertions of the fire men, who by conveying their hose through the interior of the building, operated directly upon the fire, without the slightest waste of water. The upper floors of the Coffee House weie not occupied, and the furniture from the first and second floors was all removed, so that the actual loss is only the roof of the building, and the inconvenience which Mr. Sanderson will sustain, in being obliged to take possession of the Exchange, a day or two earlier than he in tended. ir The fire originated it is believed from sparks from a steam engine immediately in the rear of the Coffee House. By information to the 26th February, received last evening, we learn that the Planters’ Bank of Natchez"(one of the Pets) has determined to call a meeting of the stockholders to take into consideration the expediency of giving up the Public Deposites, which are ascertained to be more injurious than beneficial to the institution. The Agricultural Bank, it is said, will not take them on the terms required by the Secretary of the Treasury. Our correspondent adds, that there has been a strong Anti-Jackson meeting held at Natchez, in consequence of the universal pressure and distress; and that the Veto and Experiment par ty could not succeed in collecting more than twelve persons to sustain the Administration. National Gazette. Mr. Smith, one of the Representatives from Maine, on the floor of the House, last Monday, denounced the Collector of Portland as an ene my of the administration; and his remarks are published in the Globe of Tuesday. Now, who is this collector, that is an enemy to the admi nistration? It is John Chandler, who, for eight years, represented the State of Maine in the Senate, and who was highly respected in that body, as a faithful servant of the people, a stur dy democrat, and an honest man. He was appointed by Gen. Jackson to the of fice of Collector of Portland, and would he bound by gratitude to sustain his administra tion, if it could be sustained consistently with the dictates of honor and conscience. General Chandler is highly respected in his own State, and his abandonment of the administration, at the present moment, is a sign of the times not to be mistaken.— Telegraph. The Poor andRich— This is the incendiary cry of the collar men. The poor Poets ot the Post will have enough of this before the elec tion is over. Look at the picture.

How, in the name of all that’s good, can these poor fellows ever get the stock of their ten millions Bank taken up? Who will trust them? In our youthful days, we remember hearing that there were two kinds of poor in the world —the devil’s poor, and the poor devils. The poor fellows above named belong, we presume, to the latter class. If so, we marvel not at the sympathy which the poor Poets of the Post manifest for them.—N. V. Star. Corruption admitted.—The State printer for life openly admits that the sum of$o00.000, be longing to the Canal fund, was transferred from Banks in the city of New York to three lour Banks in Albany, and that those Banks are res ponsible for its safety! Now look at this cor ruption broadly in the face—probe it to its source. Two or three city Banks borrow from the Canal Commissioners several hundred thou sand dollars belonging to the sacred Canal fund, for which they pay interest, and the sum thfls borrowed is to be returned when th^ Com missioners desire to redeem the stock. It is re loaned to merchants in this city. The Safety Fund Commissioners came down to this city to borrow money to sustain the we tern banks; i i _ 11 -i Aonn nnn i .1_ Ullt nui Utrillo amc iu gtu hi®ouu,"uu in uir Canal fund from the city banks, they procure an order from the Canal Commissioners, drag that sum out of this city, get it to Albany, and there it is loaned out in small sums to save the rotten system from sudden dissolution. It is thus that evorv dollar belonging to the people, and appropriated for State objects, is lawlessly seized upon to uphold this great electioneering machine. How long are these abuses to be tol erated?—N. Y. Star. The Money Market.- A calm has for the last eight or ten days succeeded the agitated state in which the commercial community has been involved during the three preceding months It is not however a calm resulting from the con viction of danger passed, but rather the silence which prevails when complaints are felt to be unavailing, and a settled gloom takes place of the cries of depair. We have no more failures because the engagements made in better times have expired, and during the crisis no new ones were contracted. The rate of discount is a lit tle lower, because good paper is scarce, no one having been willing either to buy or sell on cre dit. But under these circumstances, business is reduced to a mere nothing compared with the stirring scenes of former years. Industry is pa ralyzed by the want of confidence, and fear pre vents our immense resources being called into action. This distressing position of affairs, so severely felt in a city where commerce is the mainspring of its prosperity, we feel convinced can never return till the former harmony exist ing between the national and State Banks is re stored to its former footing, not by a species of truce between them, like that brought about by the Union Committee, but by a perfect harmony and concert of action, resulting from a concious ness that the interests of both are intimately blended, and that the one is not a willing party to a gross injury inflicted on the other. N. Y. Cour. Mr. Cambreleng's Constituents.—We yester day received from Washington, a copy of the Tammany Anti-Bank, and up-to the hub Jack son Memorial, as printed by order of the House of Representatives, together with the names of the signers thereto. This memorial, it will be recollected, contained, as the treasury presses boasted, ten thousand signatures. Nay, more: Mr. Cambreleng presented it to the House, as coming from his constituency, and bearing the signatures of ten thousand respectable citizens. Let us now examine for a moment what sort of people Mr. Cumbreleng claims as comprising the respectable citizens of New-York, and let us also see who are, yen' excellence, his constitu ents.

Extract of a letter, dated Boston, March 18, 1834. The forgery to-day, of which you will see ac counts (by T. Dennie. Jr. on a firm in which his father is connected) seems to be a matter of j equal surprise and regret in regard to the two principal parties. The latter have paid some thousands already, and the amount of forged paper of the same kind set on foot is rated at 20 to $30,000. The forger, who has hitherto sus tained, as I understand, a fair mercantile char acter, and whose connections are highly respec table, has fled in the first instance, it is thought, (as Brown did) to your city. This is a fresh ami melancholy illustration of the natural ef fect of times like these on the morals of men, or at least on their overt moral conduct. Pecuniary desperation operates but too much, I fear in the mercantile world, like a famine or a plague in Other cases.

One of the most important public meetings that has been held in this country in relation to the present situation of affairs, took place on the 20th in New York. The merchants and others assembled on that day at the Exchange to hear the report of the Union Committee.— John A. Stevens, a member of the Committee, came forward, and in the name of Albert Gal latin, Esq., their Chairman, presented the report prepared by them. The advanced age and fee ble health of Mr. Gallatin, he trusted, would be a sufficient apology for the absence of that gen i tleman, who was particularly desirous on this occasion to meet his fellow-citizens, and, by his presence, bear testimony to the deep interest he took in the present momentous state of affairs. Mr. Stevens said he would place the memorial j in the hands of a gentleman possessing a strong er voice than he did, who would read it to the meeting. Philip Hone, after some preliminary j remarks, read the report. This report, from so able a financier as Mr. 1 Gallatin, will attract great attention throughout the community. Its great length forbids its pub lication; but we take pleasure in presenting our readers with the following summary of its state ments and conclusions, which we find in the New York American: The first object of the Committee was to as certain the exact condition of the Banks, in cluding the Branch. They found, accordingly, I that the discounts of all the banks since Octo ber 1st. the period of the removal of ihe depo sites, to 1st February, instead of being curtail ed, have increased five millions of dollars, and 1 i till on the 1st insiani amounieu 10 jony millions oj dollars. Of these the Branch Bank furnishes about six millions and a half— notwithstanding a decrease in the above period of more than four million dollars of deposites. An assurance has moreover been obtained from the Bank of the United States, that no diminution up to 1st May next, shall be made in the present amount of loans and discounts by the branches in this State, and if possible, an increase shall be made in the line of domestic bills of exchange, and up to the same time the branch will not call for the payment of balances due to it by the city banks. There will therefore be no diminution of accommodation by the banks, though the Committee hold out little expectation of any material increase. The Committee have recommended to the consideration of the local banks—as measures promising good results: 1. Some uniform plan for an increase of special deposites bear ing a moderate rate of interest, the certifi cates of which deposites would constitute a va luable negotiable paper: 2. Not to demand of each other, within certain limits, payments of balances in specie: 3. A uniform and efficient plan fur the redemption of country notes, and the devising some means at present for facili tating country remittances. They also recommend applications to Con gress, for the passing of the bills now before them, to make the silver coins of Mexico and South America a legal tender,—for raising the value of gold coins to their market price,—and for a moderate and permanent appropriation to enable the mint to pay at once, in American coin, for bullion or foreign coin brought thi ther. Under the second head,—as the pressure was obviously not caused by any curtailment of dis counts, but by an increased demand for money, —the Committe proceeded to investigate the causes thereof. Cash duties and shortened credits on imports, are stated as first in the scries of these causes: a warehousing system on the principle that duties shall be computed from the time of withdrawing and not of depositing the goods, is suggested as the adequate remedv in this case. Large investments in stocks princi pally from the Southwest—in the sale of which VW UMI vpi/n.l 4 lUIIOHJj v V 1 i U Cl v IU1 O 1 1 a V t been disappointed, and which, consequently, absorb a portion of the capital or credit of this city—are next enumerated. Then follow sales on time of stocks not held by the seller—which is nothing more nor less than gambling—cau sing artificial fluctuations in prices; the Com mittee strenuously le oinmend to the Board of Brokers to discontinue the practice. The third head of the report discusses the re moval of the public deposites, which is pronoun ced wholly unnecessary and uncalled for.”— Proceeding then to examine, in so far only as they are of a fiscal and commercial nature, the reasons assigned by the Secretary for the’ re moval, the Committee take up his first reason that the withdrawal of several millions of dol lars” from the Bank at the last moment of its existence would produce seriousinconvenience and dispose of it conclusively—first, by the ex perience of the old Bank, of which the charter expired in March 1811, and which had in its vaults six millions of the public deposites on the 1st January preceding, and on the day on which the charter terminated two millions and a half and yet no inconvenience resulted therefrom.— Secondly, by showing from the annual report on the finances, that the Secretary of the Treasury estimates the whole amount of the public de posites on the 31st December, 1834. at less than three millions, and that the receipts of 1835 will be less than those of 1834.” Since then,” we must here quote this whole overwhelming pas sage, the public deposites would naturally and gradually be lessened between 1st October 1833, and 31st December, 1834, from near ten millions to less than three millions of dollars and would probably be liable to a still greater reduction during the year 1835, it was quite unnecessary to order an immediate removal in order to avoid the danger of their magnitude in the spring of 1836. This single fact thus of ficially announced, refutes all the arguments of every description, urged in justification of that i measure.” The Secretary’s second reason,! though moie complex, is not less conclusively disposed of. It is that, inasmuch as the superior credit of the notes of the U. S. Bank arises in his judgment, altogether from their being’re ceivable in payments to the United States, and as when the charter expires they would conse- quently depreciate, they ought to be previously and gradually withdrawn —to which end he conceived the immediate removal of the depo sites as necessary. The answer to this is two fold; first, that if it was desired to lessen the amount of these notes I the obvious course was to repeal the law mak ing them receivable in payments to the United States; and, secondly, that the removal of the deposites could not, on any just i*aaoiiiiw, supposed to have any influence on the ci tion of the Bank—and, in fact, has not i^3* the circulation on 1st February being a4?. larger than on the 1st October, although interim $6,743,000 of public deposites \\erJn :‘1 drawn. In connection with this topic it ly and sagaciously remarked by the JS J.Usl* as a strange inconsistency, that tile removal the deposites is justified, as necessary to d 0,5 j able in payment by the Government wL t‘CeiLv‘ Secretary contends, all-sufficient to inman j perior credit to any bank notes, an act of r u gress, investing those of the selected n. J j with such a privilege, might have been r,,d,,K; at any moment previous to the termination i the charter. And here again we must It o i hazard even of wearying our readers another passage from the report. When i f ring to such an act, it says, It is not quite tain that the Executive is not of oDininn*? this [viz: making local Banks notes receivabl 21 public payments] may be done by his sole ai o rity, and without any legislative sanction 4 anxious wish and design to concentrut, nil n powers oj Government in that department to subject the public purse, the currencv audit 1 commerce oj the country to the will or om m is apparent throughout all the argument- acts of the administration, in relation t'„ Z, subject” 1 he justification alleged for the in finite removal of the Deposites, on the ernnO of the curtailment of the United States*5iw° is met by the fact, that this curtailment commenced after the President’s agent had out on his tour to make preparatory arrant ments for the removal—and would have c> of course, if the plan had been abandoned^ The pressure in the commercial cities and c tailments by State Banks, previous to tie October, so much dwelt on by the Secretary ar shown to have had no existence in \e v yn j biuiic ujc uis^uumrs wne larger at that monit than at either of three previous periods in f’’. same year. In his assumption too that tlie\” York banks would on 1st October be indeb?-" a million and a half of dollars to the Bnr". payment of which it was apprehended woul.i called for. the Secretary is proved to he t*r ,a ly wrong, since the balance on that day due r the Branch was less than si.r hundred uml thousand dollars, and no demand for paym. was made or apprehended. The extent of the evil which has resulted from the removal of the deposites, the report expresses the belief that t: Executive did not foresee, though just objectio, is made that such an act should have been un dertaken without any single effort to obtain til opinions of practical men on its probable e! fects; but it is well added—“ if there is an ex cuse for want of foresight, no apology can L found for obstinately persevering in an errone ous course, after the error had been discovered and the fatal effects of the measure had lx come undeniable.” 0 After the reading of this Report, the following I Resolutions, sent to the Meeting by Albert Gal latin, Esq. were proposed in his absence by Jo!. A. Stevens, Esq.— 1. Resolved, That the removal of the publii monies, from the place where they were by la deposited and declared by a late vote of Con gross to be perfectly safe, in virtue of theso.V order of the President issued only two inont. before that body was again to assemble, a with the avowed object of being enabled there by to interpose his veto, if Congress persisted its opinion; The unexampled interference with the offi to whom the public purse is entrusted, in i: performance of duties by law exclusively assigi ed to that officer; The appointment, during the recess of the 5b nate, of a temporary officer, for the special pur pose of doing an act, which no Secretary of ti. Treasury regularly appointed with the*.idvj and consent of the Senate would have perfor: ed; Are an abuse of the powers vested by the Con stitution in the President, and pncroaclnncm upon the legislative authority of Congress, up the laws and upon the constitutional paitie j tion of th% Senate in appointments to office which, unless arrested, must give to the Pre rlpnt nlnnp tho £>V/'liici aaiUi'aI /-ii-m- f I lili purse, over the currency, and over private a: public credit. 2. Resolved, That these acts and others oi similar description: the frequent and indi'crim* nate use of the President’s Veto; bis belief in 1 own infallibility; his fixed determination t His will alone shall govern; the avowal t whatever that may be, Ho must at all event sustained; or in other words that the Kingc do no wrong;” the substitution of tin* worship a man for our ancient notions of entire freer of opinion and love of liberty; are subvert'1' the principles of our institutions and tend u mately, leaving us hardly the name and too of a Republic, to convert it substantially in' Monarchy— 3. Resolved, That there is a redeeming S' in our free and glorious institutions which gr antees their perpetuity: and that for the tin’-’ only remedy, and with a perfect conviction ultimate success, we fearlessly appeal to People of the United States,” our and their legitimate Sovereign. These resolutions were unanimously p3""’u and after giving three cheers for the Con tion and the laws, the meeting adjourned.

The composition of those celebrated Letters bears internal evidence of dignity of rank and cha racter, and of a lofty spirit of independence, totally incompatible with the subordinate sta tin of private secretary to any Nobleman. In support of this assertion numerous instances might be adduced from the work, but perhaps one quotation may suffice. In his sarcastic re ply to that contemptible Orange sycophant,, Sir William Draper,—Junius remarks, I might have hoped that even my name would carry some weight, &c. &c.” By the way, w hat a fine example of the be nign influence of learning is exhibited in the correspondence betw'een those two bright scho lars, Dr. Parr and Charles Butler. The one, a Divine of the Church of England, —deep in Greek and Theology;—a pillar of Or thodoxy, and duly imbued with a holy horror of Popery: the other, an Alumnus of a Jesuit College, a splendid Mathematician, a profound Jurist, and the oracle of Lincoln’s Inn. Charles Butler rose daily at 5; attended Mass at the Sardinian Ambassador’s Chapel, at 7; took coffee in his law* chambers, Lincoln’s Inn, at 9; and devoted the remainder of the day, til 3, to the weighty and lucrative duties of his profession. He indulged in few antipathies, bu appeared never quite reconciled to the thre to be lined with a worsted stocking. There is evidently something out of order in his vocal organ, or rather his vocal hurdy-gurdy.

Inquiry by the Winchester I irginian—u W e do not understand why Flour should be $3 75 in Alexandria, when it is 85 50 in Fredericks- j burg. We take the prices from the Warrenton paper.” Answer— Flour was quoted in Alexandria at 83 75 for the simple reason that 83 75 was the actual wagon price at the time; and the quota tion of $5 50 for the Fredericksburg price was, we presume, caused by inattention on the part j of the Editor of the Warrenton paper, as we i have frequently noticed the quotations in that j paper, both of this and the Fredericksburg mar ket, continued for weeks without alteration, when the market had undergone considerable 1 change—and recently it has required no little attention to keep pace with the falling mai kets.

The Board of Directors of this Institution have ascertained, with surprise and deep regret, equal to any that the community will feel, that the Institution is unable to proceed with its busi ness, and they have resolved to transfer all its effects to a trustee, for the equal benefit of the creditors of the Bank. The Board of Directors hope and trust that the assets will be sufficient to discharge the debts of the Institution; and their determination to stop its business at once, is from a conviction, that to continue it longer would be attended with loss to the community. Their advice to the cre ditors, founded upon the best judgment they are now able to form, is not to sacrifice their claims. The debtors of the Institution will have the pri vilege of paying their debts with the notes and certificates of deposits, and open accounts due by the Bank; and that alone, they hope, will en able the note-holders and depositors speedily to realize nearly all, if not the entire amount, of their credits.

Botanical Drops! are every year increasing iheir 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 disease i which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he reditary predisposition in the patient, and general y appear under the various and distressing shapes of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosv.

IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civilized society, Consumption takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its J earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough j is the custom iry forerunner of the pulmonary con sumption Improper neglect in the timely adininis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be i reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms-oppression of the breast; greenish and 1 bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri j veiled extremetics, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flusued cheeks; swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses sion of the mental faculties, and while hope still whis-. pers her flattering tale—rold extremities, and a pre mature death. For the various stage* of this complaint, one of the most approw d remedies ever vet discovered is DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS. This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid cure9 upon patients supposed to have been far advanc ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatal ter mination of the disorder. As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine ment, they ntay be administered with confidence and safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled j success has hitherto attended their adminis4ratiun in a great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and activity. Price |l for who/e boxes of 30 pills, and 50 cents for half «in. nf 12 nills. with directions. Debilitated Females! THft complaint* pcCtiuaT u* tile leiuaic p.a of the community, have been long successfully treated by the administration of the Aromatic Pdb, originally prescribed and compounded by Ur Uelfe They cleanse the blood from those disorder* of the female constitution, for which the pills are an effectual speci fic; they restore a free circula ion, reform the irregular operations of the sangu ferous system, and rectify the disordered habits. The proprietor’s confidence in the superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow erful preparation, is founded on the most decisive tes timony from many restored patients. He can assure this portion of the public, that when DR. RELFE’S AROMVflC PILLS FOR FEMALES are regularly taken, according to the directions, ac* 1 companying them, they revive and establish the desir ed healthy habits, and restore to tiie pallid counte nance the natural glow of health and good spirits. Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex cept in cases of paegnancy, when they must not be 1 taken; neither mud they be taken by persons of hec tic or consumptive habits. They may be used success fully by either men or w>men in all Hypochondriac, 1 Hysteric or Vapourish disorders In all cases of this description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the disordered system.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,) Prepared by C. HERSTONS. near Frederick■ town, Maryland. Richmond. Va- July 15, 18 >0. THE public will be pleased to understand that I was the original discoverer of Judkins’ Ointment, and sole proprietor of the patent from September, 18 7, 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 a pa tent thereon. N SHEPHERD. djT Imposition having been practised upon the nub lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jud kins* Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself ot 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 OINT MEN T, (formerly Judkins'.) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effects, 1 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 knowingthe 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, 1 secured the origi nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases, some of which have so long baffleJ the skill of me dical science: 1st White swellings of every description; 2d Sore leas and ulcers of long standing, 3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularly those hardened tumors in women’s breasts, which oftentimes terminate in ulcerated cancers; 4th Felons; or what some people know by then&me of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains of the joints; 6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or in whatever part situate; ■7th nf nil kinds. In this comolaint the oa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part out of water; 8th Chilblains or partsaflected by frost. 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 swcl lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the m dical 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 liab'e to injury from exposure to cold. This i liniment has 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, increi.se the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the pains i It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica tion of forty-eight hours CERTIFICATES From the Hon. John Cache Member of the House of Re presentatives in Congress. ashirgt in, vinrth 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 mv reach without success, 1 at length orocured one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment, and made the application according to the directions ac companying thpecies of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure m every 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 add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling, j given over by the most distinguished physicians as in curable. and whichihey decided would, withoutampu istion, prove fatalto the patient, was, under my imme diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins’ Ointment, and the patient is in fine health- His limb affected by the tumor being restored to a peifect-,tate of sound ness. Iso 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 fectualiy 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 expe 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 ontne operation of this Oint ment, must be satisfied as to its beneficial effect lean with the utmostcontidence recommend the use of this valuable remedy, lam, sir, very respectfully, John Taliaferro.

SAM. H. P LEE. Baltimore, August, 18-8. Doctor S. H. P. I.ee, New London, Conn. Dear Sir—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 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 i yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, bv having your WHITTEN SIGNATURE to each hill of directions, i and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other j respact Finding those I had without this test, I be gan to suspect that 44 all was not lair 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 ^ith it, until I j came to the lle-srs Keerls*, 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 seff in possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this information. 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 otcly the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.
