flE GAZETTE: By EDGAR SNOWDEN. A----——-; T [•ovto Daily paper *3 per annum. Country paper __ 5 per annum. The ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE for the coun try is printed on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. All advertisements appear m both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates._ Mr. Sprague, in a recent speech in the Senate of the United States on the subject of the re moval of the funds of the nation from the U. States Bank, closes as follows: «I may be deemed an alarmist. Thert is cause for alarm. When one man, encioaching upon Congress, the Senate, and the Judiciary, arrests and rolls back the course of legislation _interprets laws, treaties and constitutions— assumes the sole power of appointment—hold ing at the same time, absolute control over the Army, the Navy, the Post Office, an affiliated press, and the whole swarm of Executive offi cers—and now, superadded to all? this tremen dous money power, the fiscal agency engrafted upon banking capital—can liberty be safe? Safe—when a boa constrictor is closing round her his crawling and crushing folds. There is cause of alarm. If this appalling accumulation of power may be acquired in the time of profound peace, what may not be ac complished in the exigencies of war—war, which the Executive can at any moment cie ate? He has but to order the Army across the lines to take possession of a foreign territory; or the commander of a single ship to insult a fnrAicm fla?: or resort to anv of the well known expedients of past ages, to provoke hostilities, and it is done. Congress may not declare it, but other nations will make war upon us,. and no treaty can be formed but by the President; and if he shall grasp further power to meet the em ergencies which he himself has created, will you impeach him? Impeach your chief, fhiprante hello, when a strong Executive may be essen tial to self preservation? I confess I do feel alarmed. And, if my strength bore any proportion to the depth and sincerity of my convictions, l would raise my ^ice till it passed every hill, filled every valley, and was echoed back from every cottage on our remotest borders. I would say to the peo ple, the strong man of the land—awake from your false security—sleep no longer in the lap of your Delilah—you will be shorn of your strength and bound in tetters—your eyes sealed up from the light of Heaven—and be made to grind in the mill tor lords and masters—until, in blindness and in rage, you shall lay hold of the pillars of the fabric that sustains them, and bury yourself and your oppressors in undistinguished ruin. The progress of Executive power and prerogative must be arrested— it must be arrest ed. And if it be not done now. in this genera tion. by the peaceable means of constitutional resistance, it will be hereafter by the convulsive throes of posterity-convulsions, which will BAPTIZE* OUR CHILDREN IN THEIR OWN BLOOD!” Mr. Pierpoint, of Boston, lately made a very eloquent speech at a Temperance meeting held in Nantucket. We cite from his discourse the following passage of singulai beauty and power. I sit at my window,” said he, ‘‘in the throng ed city, of a bright, sunny day, when the winds .are quiet, and all nature seems rejoicing beneath the smiling skies—and I hear in the distance the rumbling of approaching wagons, laden with the product of the distillery. As they roll by my dwelling with their ponderous freight in im mouse casks shaking the firm pavement, caus ing the very houses to tremble, 1 look forth upon them, and would fain trace out their ultimate destination. And I am oftentimes led, in the course of my professional avocations, to follow in the track of those huge vehicles through the streets, ruminating as I go, upon the results to which they are tending—and thinking, as their enormous wheels revolve upon the agitated pavement, how many hearts of faithful wives, and of guiltless children, the movement of those wheels must inevitably crujh!” I_ The witness who refused to give testimony before a Committee of the House of Represen tatives at Harrisburg, is James Leslie Esq. Cash ier of the Branch of the Bank of Pennsylvania at that place. The committee reported his re fusal and applied for compulsory process. The House, on motion, ordered him to be taken into custody and brought to the bar, where he per sisted in his resolution not to answer—giving the same reason, that though the answer would in no way implicate himself, he felt himself bound to respect the manner in which his know ledge was obtained, as confidential, and him self therefore bound in honor not to communi cate it. The House was left debating the ques tion when the last papers received here went to press. The resolution of inquiry into the manage ment of the Girard Trust has been adopted, and a committee of investigation appointed. Balt. Amer. Slaughtering Animals without pain.—In the Veterinary School at Edinburgh they practice a method of killing horses with comparatively no pain, by opening the jugular vein, and insert ing a metalic tube, the thickness of a quill, and blowing in atmospheric air. Three forcible ex pirations from the mouth are sufficient to cause the animal to die instantly with apparently no Sain. The “Association to promote Rational umanity” would recommend this method for killing cattle, if it should be found expedient N. Y. Fanner. Mrs. Bradstreet% who it appears has lately gained another suit in Utica, is all in all a very remarkable woman. For many years she has been devoted, heart and soul, to the recovery of the rights unjustly wrested from her, and in this pursuit she has shown an energy, persever ance, and power of mind, such as if she were a man, would probably raise her to the heighth of fortune. We have never seen any history ol the details of her case. We only know that she claims large estates in and about Utica, in right of her grandfather bearing the same name, who again held these estates, if we are rightly in formed, by grant from the old proprietaries. She is fond of recurring to the sufferings she underwent and surmounted when she first be gun to prosecute her claim. She and her daugh ters persisted in residing on the wild lands over which that claim extended for the sake of retain ing the legal possession. The hut in which they lived was fired at; the neighbors refused to sell them even the ordinary necessaries of life, and their live9 were repeatedly threatened. At this time, being poor, she offered to compound her claim, for the sum of thirty thousand dollars.— The offer was then rejected. Since that time she has refused to compromise on the tender of a much larger sum. She argued the dry law points of her last case, in a manner which drew forth the strong encomiums of the profession, and which seems to have had its full effect upon the jury.—New Bedford Mercury. We understand that the Banks of this city, with a view to put a stop, so far as within their power, to the alarming increase of forgery, have come to the determination to notify the drawers and endorsers of promissory notes at the same time. No man who commits forgery can then prosecute his career of villainy suc cessfully for any length of time without detec tion.—Boston Atlas. Horrors of Despotism.—I remember once con versing with a Russian gentleman of liberal and enlightened view’s who related to me the histo ry of his arrest at St. Petersburg, by the Empe ror Alexander, on suspicion—and his subse quent years of captivity, and exile in a military province, where snows, labor, hard lying, and every sort of severity reduced him to a mere shadow, when, by accident rather than design, he was set at liberty on the accession of the pre sent man, Nicholas. I remember that he told me that it was in a night in February, when de scending from his carriage at his hotel at St. Petersburg!! on his return from the theatre, that at the moment of entering his dwelling, two offi cers of the police presented themselves—de manding if his name was not-1 He repli ed in the affirmative. “You must go with us.” Where!’ he demanded. Never mind, you must go with us.’ Who are you, demanded the Russian gentleman.’ Never mind, you must go with us.’ Let me first go up stairs and arrange my affairs.’ ‘No, you must go with us.’ ‘But I shall not bean hour.’ ‘No, you have not a minute.’ Then let me at least em brace my wife and children, and tell them I am arrested.’—‘ No, our orders are peiemptoiy, you must go with us.’ They placed him instantly on a sledge—they sat on each side—in two minutes the vehicle drove on; ana in a rew nuuis uuciwamo wife and children knew, from a copy of a re ceipt sent to them, that their father and husband was hurried away, perhaps forever. The mo ther and wife lost her senses and died in a mad house. The children survived, but the daugh ter fell a victim to seduction, and the son was made a soldier. There is no fiction and exag geration in this. It is a picture unvarnished, and indeed a mere sketch of what we mean when we write against despotic governments and such facts as these chili our blood, nerve our arms, and make us swear eternal enmity to despotic governments and absolute monarchies.

THE OLD FEDERAL PARTY To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette It may appear strange for any one, in these Democratic times, to raise his voice in favor c the old Federal party which ruled in Washing ton’s time and has been proscribed ever sine But in reading the speech of the Hon. Mr. Fr linghuysen, of New Jersey, 1 was so nuit: struck with the honorable and candid avow&i of his sentiments with regard to that party, ano his remarks awakened so many old and plea sant recollections, that I must ask the favor of you to republish them. As you, Mr. Snowden, have never joined in the sen>eicss cry wi demagogues are constantly raising againd t.’i* old Federalists,—and, whatever may beyom individual views with regard to their principles i i i l 111 a. i I f cUiu acts, wave ucieu iamy vviui ukiii,—» u no hesitation in asking you to give me a pluc in your columns. The filial feelings which i.' spire Mr. Frelinghuysen must have a place i your bosom also; and while I do not ask you t any man to adopt the opinions or the name a proscribed party, I do ask you and every n to do justice to its motives and the high -Ti! with which it was ever actuated. Without ft1 j ther preface, I give you nil extract from M Frelinghuysen’s speech on the Removal of f Deposites: “This document has been placed to the count of the Secretary’s early federal notio.i Sir, it is no product of that school.

Fairfax County, Va., April 5, 1334. the office holders. Mr. Snowden:—l am glad to see from the re marks of the Intelligencer, published in your per of this morning, that the important sub let of a reduction of salaries is at length openly broached; and I regret that the sug gestion of a gentleman made some weeks ago was not followed out, and a memorial to Con fess got up urging this subject on their atten tion. It not yet too late; and I trust the peo ple, finding their petitions for relief have been .Ucrpimrded. will come forward unanimously and demand of Congress a general reduction of salaries. It is manifest that the diminution of the circulating medium of the country has lessened the value of property of all descrip tions, the cost of subsistence, and above all, the value of labor. It has, in fact, increased the value of fixed salaries at least 50 per cent.— Why, then, should not the office-holders parti cipate in the consequences of the pressure of the times which they have contributed to pro duce. No one can doubt their patriotism. They have declared in the newspapers—they have proclaimed at the corners of the streets and up on the house tops, that the Bank must be put down; that the Experiment” must be persist ed in in order to preserve the Constitution and the liberties of the people. Surely, then, they will not object to a slight sacrificerin common with their suffering fellow-citizens, to produce this great good to the dear people whom they profess to love so much, particularly as the re venue of the people must inevitably be ma terially reduced, and their ability to pay their servants proportionally diminished. It has been suggested in various quarters that the Senate should refuse to pass the appropria tion bills until the Constitution and the laws were rescued from the grasp of the corrupt ca bal who now control the “Government;” but it has been objected that this would look too much like an attempt to coerce a restoration of the Deposites and a re-charter of the Bank. No such objection would lie against a refusal by the Senate to pass any appropriation bill until a proper reduction of salaries was established by law; and I, for one, should be pleased to see them take this stand. 1 cannot agree with the Tnli /ron/'or that thp c4 shnnlH hp py. empted. In this case, at least, I would go the “entire swine,” and cut down the whole ol them from the President to the tidewaiters and boatmen, whose yearly salary, (of the last 1 mean) received by their owners the collectors, in some instances exceeds the value, in fee sim ple, of the man himself. In conclusion, I find the idea which I wish to enforce so much better expressed by Mr. Ewing, in a recent speech which I have just read, that I enclose an extract therefrom: “Who was the sufferer? The merchant, if he had made an engagement which he could not meet, owing to the value of produce heing brought down one half, must suffer; the mechan ics, owing to the want of money to pay them for their skill and application must suffer; the labo rers must suffer, from the same cause; all clas ses who were engaged in industrious occupa tions must suffer. But how was it with the gen tlemen office holders. Were their salaries di minished by the pressure? did they suffer with the community? Look at the blue book. Their sala ries were undiminished,they were in the receipt ofthe same amount; and payment to them was certain. They depended upon none of the con tingencies of trade; bankruptcies did not affect them. However the merchant, the mechanic, the dealer, the farmer, might be hampered through the pressure of the times, their salaries were regularly paid, and suffered no diminu tion. On the contrary, the sufferings of the other classes of the community increased their prosperity. Why, if property did not command more than one half its usual price, did it not, in effect, raise their salaries to double their value? ft certainly did. They stood on very unequal ground. When these officers were exhorting other people to stand the pressure, they got others to bear the brunt of the battle whilst they took the spoil. The men who pushed forward the experiment were those who profitted by it. They were not, therefore, on equal ground.” Anxiously hoping that this subject may meet -he attention which its importance demands, I remain yours, A Working Man. Alexandria, April 8, 1834. t oundlings.—During the past winter near a *°zen infants have been abandoned by their Parents, and left on the steps, or placed in the ‘'alls of houses in this city.

HYGEIANISM. THK following testimonials of the superior efficacj of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure o our diseases, speak in a language which must carr) conviction to the minds of the most skeptical: Brows University, Dec. 25, 1833. To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege table Universal Medicines, for the Slate of Rhodt Island. Sir—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com I pels me, in compliance with your request, to give i brief statement of t* cure, which, I think, 1 received j from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the 1 same the more cheerfully; because thereby, perhaps, 1 may be useful to some of n»y fellow-men, who may be afflicted with a similar disease. Mv complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may be explicitly un ler i stood, l state, in connexion with the relation of the i cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1832, I caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of tlie night, having returned the evening be* fore in usual health, I found myself bleed'ng at the lungs. I had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut ed I spat blood, occasionally, for four da>s; it left me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap petite, and withal, very weak. A fewr weeks determined that I was in a decline 1 received the attention of the most skilful Physicians, who often seemed to check the progress of the dis ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But rel pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower than the nreetdintr. seemed to baffle all human skill, and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus, months after the first attack, a tubercle** [small ul cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one day I continued to decline two months longer, when 1 obtained the llygeian Medicines 1 had now been unable to sit up a whole day, for four months and a half. My feet were cold and lifeless, sleep unsound, cold night sweats constant, tongue lurred, pulse in the afternoon from seventy-five to one hundred per mi nute, food produced great distress, appetite very poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart, attended with some cough, &C. &c. Such was my condition, when l first became acquainted with the llygeian Medicines 1 commenced taking the medi cines, four pills at a dose, and increased the dose dai ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten days, my appetite became good, and food produced no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing, and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease had nearly all disappeared. I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night, averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, l took about four doses a week, until I had taken about thirteen hundred pill--, when 1 found myself restored to health. After 1 commenced the Hyg< ian, I took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I was able to resume my studi s in college, where I have since remained without any recurrence of the disease Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and if mv strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I have less pains, and am mure free from temporary sickness, than at any time since my earliest recollec tion. Yours, with respect, HORACE T. LOVE. l)n II. Shethsaud Moat. Dear Sir—1 wist) to state that my sister, after severe suffering, and employing a medical man three years, whs relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indeed, to use her own expression, her ribs on one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see vere, that ‘die could not ait up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers If, and perhaps, over exertion with it After using a few, doses of No 1 and 2, alternately, about eight piUa for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is now restored to health; and I have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours Duly, H DYER. f.owell, Massachusetts, Feb 8, 1834 In justice to l)r. si., her medical adviser, when he h^ard her imprr vement in health, he recommended perseverence in the use of he medicines. This valuable Medicine, being composed only of 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 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 performing a cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is producer! by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and being called n few extra times to the purposes of eva citation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustorm d habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken 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 its bad humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, costiveness, &c, The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as I 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. The genuine Medicines can be had of WM. POMEROY, Alexandria, Sole Agent for the District of Columbia and its vicinity, i By whom the Pills are sold in packets of one, two, and three dollars each, and the Powders at 37$ cents per box, with printed directions; and also by the fol lowing Sub-Agents: It.

IN tit at 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 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 is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con. sumption Improper neglect in the timely admtnis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reoroved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms—oppression of the breast; greenish and bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic faver; shn veiled extremeties, and general emaciation ot the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses sionof the mental faculties, and while hope stib whis pers her flattering tale—cold extremities, and a pre mature death. For the various stages of this complaint, one ot tne most approved rt medies ever yet discovered is DR RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS. This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and innocent preparation, has effected thorough aiui rapid cures upon patients supposed to have been far advanc edio 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 meat, they may be administered with confidence and safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled success ha» hitherto attended their administration in a ere* “ariety 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.

The term of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I have m*-x**n improvement in the same, and taken out a pa teat thereon. N SHEPHERD.

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 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 liable to injury from exposure to cold.

SAM H. P- LEE. Baltimore, August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. Lee, New London, Conn. Dear Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that 1 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 time)* use. 1 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 negan to conclude that you had made your fortune, and abandoned their raanufac ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New Yorfc newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other respect. Finding thuse l had without this test, 1 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. 1 found many without this test, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs 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 j experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my-1 selfin possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that that 1 cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this information. P r (lfT 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; bul if ohlt the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avo^ded.^ New T.ondon, Conn. Dec. 1833._ DR MEAD’S AN TI-DY SPEC TIC, or STO MACH PILLS, THE only medicine ever yet offered to the public, from which a radical and perma nent cure can be obtained of all those chionic states of derangement of the digestive organs, constituting that complicated disease, termed Dyspepsia. The duty which the proprietor owes to soci ety has induced him to adopt this mode of cir culation, in order to give it a greater range of publicity, that it may thereby become more ex tensively useful than it could possibly be, were it confined within the private practice of any individual whatever. The diseases consequent on a morbid state of the stomach and bowels, are numerous, complicated, and, for the most part, very difficult of cure. The proprietor of these Pills is happy in hav i ingtt in his powder to offer to all those who are j afflicted with the above complaint, a medicine in which the most unlimited confidence may be placed, and, for simplicity of composition, may be given to children and patients of the most delicate habit. In every chronic case of stomach complaint, where the disease does not depend on a schirrus, or cancerous state of that organ, (in which case no medicine whatever can do i any good,) these pills will effect a ccitain and speedy cure, after the stomach of the patient lias been cloyed with magnesia and chalk, and j drenched with all the bitter potions that art could invent, to no purpose. They will most i effectually remove all sourness of the stomach, I not merely by neutralizing the acid, but by cor recting that morbid state of the secretions which gives rise to it; and at the same time that they are giving tone to the organs of digestion, they will renovate and give new life and vigor to the whole system.
