INTERESTING DEBATE. 1 In the Senate on the 23d,—the memorial of the State Convention of New Jersey being pre sented,—after some remarks by Mr. FOR SYTH and Mr. PRESTON, Mr. FORSYTH The Senator from South Carolina had said, that an appeal was made to the people, and that they would decide it against the Administration. When that decision was made, he would sub mit to it, whatever it might be. But something lie must observe was to be gained by making these assertions before hand, that public opinion was in such a way. It was forestalling opinion and he was-not willing to let it pass without giv ing what were his sentiments as to public opi nion. He appealed to the State of Pennsylvania, from which the gentleman from Massachusetts had just arrived. What was the opinion of a ma jority of the people of that State. There was hardly but one opinion there. At least nine tenths of its population were against the Bank of the United States, which was the cause of all the evil. If the gentleman found fault with him for speaking of factious proceedings in the streets of a neighboring city, he would answer that he did not refer to any expressions of opi nion by peaceable orderly citizens, nor of the K acts of any honorable men, but of brawling crowds, profaning even the Sabbath day for the sake of abusing the President of the United States. When the people of the United States meant to express their disapprobation of the President, they would not profane the Sabbath fop that purpose. The people do not believe that the President has seized on the public trea sure. That question is yet to be tried before them. I deny that he has a doit of it in his pos* session. _ Mr. CHAMBERS said, the honorable Sena tor from Georgia has, at last, found a habitation and a home for his faction”—his “something, not treason, but just like treason;” he has locat ed the scene in my state, ana me aciuis aie my constituents. The Senator alludes to the pro ceedings of the citizens of Baltimore, on Sun day last. Sir, amongst the gentlemen in that assemblage, were many of my earliest and most esteemed friends, i^iany whose friendship and respect any man may be proud to boast; many whose character, whether for intellectual, moral, or even religious attainment, will com pare with any equal number in any communi ty; men who would spurn the imputation of ri otous, factious, almost treasonable conduct. [Mr. Forsyth disclaimed having applied the term almost treason” to that meeting. Mr. Chambers said, where does the Senator find treason? I ask for the persons and the oc casion intended by the remark. Mr. Forsyth here made some explanation, which was not distinctly heard, and concluded by reading a paragraph from a Baltimore news paper.] Mr, Chambers resumed. The Senator’s trea son, then, has no existence but in his imagina tion. Sir, I tell the Senator he is as wide of the true character of the gentlemen of Baltimore, when he describes them as riotous and factious, and violators of the Sabbath, as he would be were he to call them traitors. I had the best means of ascertaining who composed the.“ fac tious crowd” of the Senator. I was also hur rying on to resist the aggression upon this bo dy, to take my seat on this floor, and receive my portion of the lecture administered to the Senate of the United States by Executive ma jesty,* in this novel thing called a protest.” Having been in the city in a few minutes after the scene which the Senator describes as fac tious, riotous, and not treasonable, I can tell him that I found there some of those who had been leaders, ardent and influential leaders, in the cause of his Hero; some who had been loud in his praise, who had enlisted their affections and their passions, whose judgments were scarcely within the reach of fact or argument, but upon whom the events of the last few weeks, and more especially, the events of the last few days, have produced the most wholesome influ _ rni 1 C 1 CUtU. A. UC OV/UICO 1 Ul 1 UI 11U U IUI1WU U V.»Ui their eyes; they see, and they deplore the rash ness and the danger of confiding power to hands not only incompetent, but dangerous. They see, and they deplore, that artful and wicked men ure carrying out their desperate and destructive purposes, under the sanction of that popularity which they have assisted to build up for him who is the cloak and the shield to this irresponsible power behind the throne. Sir, I wish the Senator from Georgia could have had the same opportunity to witness the spirit that pervaded the citizens of Baltimore. He would have been reminded of the best days of the Republic. He would have heard the pure and unadulterated sentiments of patriot-1 ism, the most anxious and deep-toned solicitude for the sacred institutions of our country—the most anxious apprehensions for the free repub lican principles of our glorious Constitution— the most trembling alarm at the threatened blow to the majesty of the laws. He would have found these feelings deeply agitating the bo soms of men who have most stake in society, who have long lived in the community, in which t iev are honored, respected and beloved for their intelligence, and their social, domestic, and per sonal virtues; and he would have found, too, that, so pervading and intense was this feeling, that its expression was not restrained even on the Sabbath, in a community, and by those where, and by whom the sanctity of that day is 1 regarded with as much holy reverence as by any community. It requires more self-control than I possess, to sit quietly in my chair, and hear imputed to such men the character given by the Senator from Georgia. But, sir, it is the language which has always been applied by those who have usurped pow er, and ever will be. The bold and acknow ledged conqueror, who openly seizes upon the Governntneut and claims to control its whole action, breathes slaughter and extermination to all who dare resist his claims, and executes his threat upon the pretext of subduing treason and rebellion; and his bayonets are the correctives for faction and treason. He who, by the slow but more fatal process of corruption and gra dual approach to despotism, would subdue re sistance from freemen, will make the creatures of his power the executioners of his will. He who dares sound the atarm, must be denounc ed as an enemy to God and man. The voice of freedom, the manly remonstrance of patriot ism, will be sedition, riot, faction—now al most,” and anon “altogether,” treason. Yes, sir, the noble, the glorious resistance of our gal lant ancestors, in 1776. was faction”—was treason.” King George III. and his Secreta ries, and those who claimed for him the right to possess and control the revenues of his Ame rican colonies, thought the assemblages of our Revolutionary 1 treasonable. T1 day were thought i against the Deity of the less aggravated b an offence against rent ed by those who one, I trust and h$pe we shs i rebellion; 1 trust and hope 1 son which led our patriot sires cessful resistance against law! will animate their sons to similar ri is my deep conviction that such is sue. The people may be deluded; I pure in purpose; they are awakening conception of their danger. Thus they will inform themselves; and, understand ing, they will, with resistless might, drive out those faithless agents who have betrayed their confidence. In a Government where the laws themselves do not open to the people an avenue by which they can arrive at a desired result ofcoi rection, there must, in such a case, be revolution and bloodshed. The people cannot, in whatever numbers, speak in terms, which, by the regular action of the laws, will peaceably control or remove the offending rulers. The Emperoi oi the King is not periodically elevated to the throne by the suffrages of the great body of the people, and no resort is had to their will, to de termine his continuance. Here we are yet hap pily in possession of legal means to dethrone our rulers peaceably and effectually. The ballot box is a weapon not less efficient in the United States than the sword and the bayonet in Eu rope. This will restrain our people in the most violent excitement. It has restrained them when nothing beside could have prevented violence. The just sense of outrage and injuiy inflicted upon the purity of our institutions and the sanc tity of our laws, the high claims to arbitrary power, and the wide-spread, withering i uin which lias been effected in execution of these pretensions, would have driven any other people to revolution.to violence and forcible resistance, and thousands of American patriots would this day be in arms to rescue the Constitution and the laws, but for the conviction that a bloodless battle and certain victory may be gained by the surer, safer means of elections. T snv then tn nil who desire to live and die in the freedom which the peril and blood ot our ancestors have purchased; who mean to resist the approach of despotism at that point at which alone it can be resisted—its beginning—you who will have your public agents to administer their trusts according to the laws you have prescri bed for their conduct; who do not, in short, de sign to have all power concentrated in one man -to all such I would say, admonish your confi ding neighbor of the existing danger; spread before his prejudiced mind the evident tokens of the slow poison which his political doctrine is infusing into the system; urge him to throw a side the shackles of party, and to look beyond the interests of one man,or even one party, and regard the great interests of the nation—its fun damental principles of government, its past his tory and practice, the pure and simple doctrines of former republican Presidents, of our Wash ington, our Jefferson, our Madison; their ac knowledged obligation to the laws made by the legitimate organs of the people and the States; their cautious abstinence from the exercise of any questionable power; their anxious regard and respect for the authority of Congress; and their devotion to the sacred restraining princi ples which the constitution has declared shall mark the limit of their authority. Look to the healthful action of the system under such a course of wise administration; look to the growth and prosperity of the country; the wealth and abundance which blessed us; the peace, happi ness, and contentment which abounded in our borders; the march of intellect and science— and then, when filled with this contemplation, point him to the gloomy, dreary prospect which now every where assails his astonished vision; to a scene in contrast with all he has ever seen or known before; and then tell him, and tell him truly, the wretchedness, and poverty, and mise ry you witness, is the fatal effect of one man’s folly and passion. The remedy will be applied, not by faction or, “almost treason.” It may be that, yielding to those impulses which are strongly implanted in the human breast, a sense of unprovoked injury may drive individuals who have been deprived of the very means of subsistence, who witness the cries of naked children for bread, and see the tear of distress in the eye of a wife, silently suffering the agonies of starvation, or the scarcely less intolerable agony of living upon cold charity, to occasional bursts of desperation and violence. These will be repressed, and men will not prefer unlawful means to accomplish what they may rightfuliy effect. The Senator from Georgia has visited Phila delphia, and I have smiled to hear the history ofhis hopes and his speculations. He thinks nine-tenths of the People of Pennsylvania will sustain the President! He admits that in Phila delphia all is lost. 1 am sure the Senator was in a society there somewhat new to him. Of his former associates, he could scarcely find one remaining in the faith he holds. His means of information were probably limited—perhaps confined to those who have the same easy faith with himself in this behalf. Why, sir, the peo ple in the cities are the same sort of people as those in the country. On any great question of political power or polical propriety, they have the same feelings, and will have the same judg ment. It is true, in cities where the population is so dense, men confer more rapidly, and come to their conclusions in masses more promptly.— When conviction of error is felt, the good work of reformation is commenced; but there is a strong obstacle still to its consummation. In the cities the cotemporaneous acknowledgment of error renders the condition of each individual less offensive, by exposing his pride—the fatal sin of our nature—to fewer and less mortifying attacks from those who remain obdurate. It requires a degree of moral courage, not always found, even with honest men, to come out alone and single-handed to renounce further commu nion with a creed the doctrines of which are far from acceptable. Has the honorable Senator ever felt such a sentiment? Has he never persevered in the de fence of a political tenet, because from the high elevation on which he stands before the Ameri can People and the world, he was unwilling to wound his pride by the acknowledgement of er ror? In matters of pecuniary interest, where the real or supposed advantages of city and coun try are in opposition, they will differ, but on great political doctrines they will think alike.— The hopes of the Senator are delusive; they prove that those in power—misused and abused power—are the last to see and know the real state of popular sentiment. One would think that facts of recent occurrence would open the eyes of those who are not judicially blinded.— Is the voice of New York unheard—that glori ous voice, responsive to the claims of patriotism and the principles of constitutional law? Are the elections in Virginia regarded? or in Maine, and every where in those which have been ve* among them.] Mr. F. resumed. He was of opinion that no thing but a spirit of faction could have prompt ed them to make such an-exhibition on the Sab bath day. It was a well known fuct tha the city of Philadelphia had always acted in op position to the rest of Pennsylvania. Now, as to the expression which he had made use of— that they had almost committed treason,” he spoke not of the acts, but of the indications of t design on the part of the people to act—no against the Senate, but to compel Congress tc act [Mr. CLAY said: Not against the Senate?] Mr. F. continued. No; but against Congress He had a paper in His hand, and it was publish ed amidst the excitement, either on Sunday 01 the next day. [HereMr. F. read two or three passages fron a Baltimore print, setting forth in strong terms the cause which the people have to defend—one resembling that for which their ancestors fought and who had sheathed their swords only wher they had gained freedom. The President anc Congress could relieve the people, and, if the) did not, revolution must come, &c Mr. F. proceeded. Was there any other mean ing intended by that language than this—that unless Congress purposed to grant relief, b) succumbing to the Bank, revolution must come' No overtacts, it had been said, were committed UUl U1UJ UJ U UUiJVU O -'-7 such a course of conduct, he was sure, woulc be looked down upon by the indignant eye o the people of the United States. Mr. CHAMBERS said: I must insist on tin correction to which the remarks of the Senatoi are subject. He tell us that the history of the country presents no parallel to the present times that such excitement has been unknown; tha’ no instance has occurred where men of intellec tual, moral, and religious character had yieldec to feelings, which could not be restrained, or the Sabbath. Sir, 1 repeat, there has been such a period ir our history—a period when the hand of powei assumed the “custody and control” of our pro perty as the hand of power now assumes; when arbitrary power, in violation of an unwritten Constitution, seized upon the public revenue, as arbitrary power now seizes upon the public ic venue in violation of our written Constitution and laws. The noble spirit of the Whigs of tha! day was excited; they knew that, if not resisted the lawless pretension to control their money and property would end in the destruction of all liberty; they met the approach of despotism a! its first step. The same spirit is now excited, the same determined resistance will oppose the first dawnings of despotism now. Does the ho norable Senator rebuke the spirit of ’76, because it led his ancestors and mine to meet on Sun day, to talk on Sunday, or even to light and con quer battles on Sunday'? No, sir, they believed it was acceptable service” to carry on the good work by using Sunday, when an occasion pre sented on that day which could not be found or any other day. Sir, the people of Baltimore who are censur ed by the Senator, believe that a struggle ir now going on, as essentially vital to their liber ties as the struggle in ’76; they believe this a* conscientiously as they believe in their obliga tions to their God, and to the day which He has sanctified. The Senator does not perceive it Quite possible. The ministers of the King, and Ills partizans and supporters, in ’76, did not per ceive usurpation then. The excitement of the People was rebuked; it was “senseless cry,’: f-irfinn almost and altogether treason. Il must be so now, and the experience of all ages and nations presented precisely this difference of sentiment and language between the friends of power and the friends of liberty and the law. The Whigs of ?76 could not correct their rulers by the ballot box, and they resorted to the only weapon which could give them redress. Thanks to their patriotism and their wisdom for the bet ter condition in which we live. The ballot box is now effective, and nothing else could, at this moment, avert a civil war. Sir, if it were no! for the abiding conviction that a peaceable mode of effectual redress is open to the People, it is my confirmed belief they would at this moment be in arms. It is not in human nature—1 care i not how refined or cultivated—to witness the prostration of their fortunes, the sudden annihi lation of their hopes, the daily regular approach to penury and want; themselves, and those more dear to them, denied their daily bread for their daily labor, and to feel ank know that it is the work of abitrary power grasping at the vitals ol that Constitution and the laws which they hold sacred: It is not in human nature that men, free men, should thus observe and feel, without adopting the appropriate means of redress. The appropriate mode of redress is undoubt edly by a calm but firm and animated expres sion of the popular will, by exciting a just indig nation against the measures which produce the evil, and by concentrating the effective power of the people at the polls. This was what the citizens of Baltimore are disposed to do, and in due time they will give us very satisfactory evi dences of it. I thought the terms employed by the Senator from Georgia, in reference to this meeting, any thing but just. I am glad to hear him qualify them. The community, to which the gentlemen composing the meeting belonged, is as moral and religious as any other; the gentlemen them selves were many of them from the most estima ble ranks in that community; men with whom the Senator from Georgia may consider it his pride, as I consider it an honor, to associate as acquaintances and friends. Mr. FORSYTH said the reference of the gen tleman reminded him of a piece ofinformation he had lately received. He thought it had been said that the people of Philadelphia were those who had suffered the most from the pecuniary pressure, yet he learned, to his great satisfac tion, that the last season was the only one in which committees of charity had not travelled round to collect contributions to clothe and feed the distressed. Mr. CHAMBERS said the whole country was in such a state of extreme suffering, as to ren der it almost impossible to collect money for charitable objects. Mr. CLAY observed, that he rose with a good it seems, that treason can be committed against one of the parts of this Government. In the Reign of Terror we bad only sedition; but now, opposition to the President was treason. The honorable member said Mr. C.J tells us that the people will sustain the acts of the Executive, and that we shall see it when the people come to a decision. The gentleman might have taken les sons from the recent results of the elections both in the North and in the South; and yet one ol I his most constant arguments is to tell us of what he hopes from the people. He may yet have to place himself in the anxious seat of the consti tuents of the member from Maryland, and, like them, repent the support he has given to those who have brought such disasters to the country. With respect to the resolutions of the Legis i latures of New Jersey and Maine, the President records them in his Protest as a censure of the Senators from those States, and asks the Senate to record them on their Journal as authentic; yet all this is not to be taken as a rebuke of those I members for their votes in the Senate. Why, the honorable gentleman might see, at once, that in this the President had committed a gross and palpable abuse of the privileges of this House. Me rose to ask the erentleman from Georgia il lie had done/m/i justice in relation to the con versation he had referred to as having taken place between the President and the Ex-King of Spain. The President said he had made the Ex-Emperor Napoleon his model. Now he, Mr. f C., did not say that he feared that the President could use the army and navy to disperse the National Legislature; but that he had too much confidence in the patriotism of the army and navy to fear that they could be used for any such purpose. On the contrary, he said that two of the officers of that House would besnf ficient to meet any force that could be sent. Mr. WEBSTER said he was very sorry to be compelled to rise again on this question. But circumstances had come within his own knowl edge, which lie deemed it necessary to men tion. When he arrived in Philadelphia, on his return to Washington, he received information of the very extraordinary communication sent by the President to the Senate; certainly all that he conversed with,viewed it witli the utmost alarm and disapprobation. When he arrived at Bal timore, lie found multitudes of People in the streets, certainly not assembled in a riotous man ner, but evincing a deep state of feeling from some great cause. When the "boat arrived at the wharf, a gentleman came forward and in troduced one venerable man, who addressed him, by saying—“I am a member of the Pres byterian Church, and you may be surprised to ‘see me in the crowd on such a day; but l re member that we had no Sundays in Revolu tionary times, to interfere with our duty to our ‘country. We know that our liberties are in danger, arid we came down to you, foi the pur pose of making you acquainted with our true situation, and to ask what we are to depend on.” The honorable gentleman says this crowd svus composed of men influenced by the exes perated feelings of faction. Was there no feel ing of exasperation separate from faction? Did the honorable gentleman never hear of the ex asperated feelings of patriotism? And did these feelings never call forth crowds to assemble in the streets even on a Sunday? With what eyes did the gentleman look on the many who meet on every day of the week through the whole Union? Were they exclusively of the classes of one particular party. He must know that these masses were collected by a general feel ing of oppression. Did the gentleman never see cuch r»r»lnf n boat wharf that lie could not get through without being jost led? So far as he (Mr. W.) was concerned, it was a matter of no importance. But so far as the City of Baltimore was concerned, which was behind no City in the Union for high pat riotism. intelligence, moral worth, and religious feeling, the observations of the gentleman de served some rebuke. The honorable gentleman seemed to have- in his rye some terra incognita, out of which that great voice is to come, which is to settle this great question in favor of the Administration. He himself decides that this terra incognita was not on the sea coast (and he knew in this lie was correct,) for from Maine to South Caroli na, that feeling which the gentleman calls exasperation and. faction the people call pa triotism—a sense of injury and oppression. Where, then, is the terra incognita to be found? The gentleman said that Philadelphia always ‘I thought against Pennsylvania, but recent events seemed to incline the gentleman to think that all great cities differed with the country. On the great question .which now agitated the peo i pic, lie apprehended that the cities and the coun try thought alike. If a question affected the ci ties only, the country^ might, from not under i standing it, view it in a different light. But on the constitutional question, whether the free in stitutions of the country are to be preserved, the man who is the most deeply interested is the agriculturist; and, if the inhabitant of the cities is the earliest to move in it, it is because he has I the earliest means of information. Mr. FORSYTH said that he had received a very different account of the meeting at Balti more from that which had been given by the ho norable Senator from Massachusetts. Accord ing to his account there were no cheers_ given —no cries of “Down with the Tyrant—“Down with the Usurper,” and no voice or clamor was heard. No: but all was peace, peace—nothing but a spirit of calmness pervaded that meeting. And the place at which the People assembled was particularly appropriate—it was at the door of a public hotel! He (Mr. F.) hoped he did know the difference between a spirit of faction and a spirit of patriotism. He judged of the character of meetings by the indications they manifested; and he would tell the gentleman from Massachusetts how he (Mr. F.) looked up on crowds which gave vent to such language, and conducted themselves as he had just stated —it was with the most profound pity and feeling I of regret. When he saw crowds parading the streets and huzzaing, he must be permitted to say that it was conduct unbecoming freemen. He would say to them—“you have forgotten it is your power which controls the mighty desti- j nies of this Union. You have forgotten this, Sre&g. and have degraded yourselves by lmitati,,,, conduct of ffe brute rabble in the oW coin? A great moral revolution, he would tell boxeIaS t0 bC CffeCted °nly throu8h the bJiioi The honorable Senator had said that ho /m F.) was mistaken in regard to whathe respecting Philadelphia having been always™ posed to the rest of the State.

He (Mr. F.) alluded to that part of ti e country which had so triumphantly sustained our Chief Magistrate, and which, he believed would sustain him again. The People were no* to be deceived—they would not be diverted hoi the object of their choice, notwithstanding th,. course which this dignified body had chosen to pursue against the President, who, for the first time, had now appealed to the People. Thru high functionary had come before the Senate with a most respectful statement of his belief* that they transcended their authority. And how was he treated? He had been called a tyrant and an usurper, who trampled down the Senate and had violated the Constitution and laws of the Union. This was the manner in which he had- been assailed, for merely asking that hu message should be put upon the journal of the Senate along with the resolutions that had be/, passed, censuring his conduct. Mr. CLAY said he could not withhold hiscon gratulations, that the gentleman from Georgia was about to leave his party. He had grown weary of the hurrahs. The shouts had become unpleasant to his ear. Perhaps, however this was because his party got no more of the^e shouts, and the grapes were sour. The proceedings were then referred as usual. ROBBERY AND ATTEMPT AT MURDER! To the. Editor of the Nashville National Banna. Columbia, (Tenn.) April 12. A daring and horrid outrage was perpetrated here last night. A few minutes after 10 o’clock, the groans and vomiting of some person, who seemed to be in deep distress and agony, arrest ed the attention of one of our citizens. It wa« raining and excessively dark. To the inquiry. “What’s the matter?” he answered, “lam sick.” The voice of Parry W. Porter, the Cadi ier of the Union Bank, was recognized. Hcu^ wet and covered with blood, having received a violent blow on the head, and a stab in the left side. These wounds had been inflicted about seventy or eighty feet from the door of the Bank, where his hat and pocket book, &c. uere'found How long he had remained insensible is un known. He had scrambled about half the way back, marking his path with blood. The keys of the Bank had been taken from his pocket, the vault entered, and $19,600 taken. Energetic measures were instantly adopted io detect the perpetrators of this bold and crml piece of villuny, but no circumstance has yet transpired to direct suspicion to any body. We only know that murder has been attempted and robbery elFected Mr. Porter only remembers that he stept out on business, and knows nothin? of having been knocked down. He thought was only sick, and never knew he was hurt till he was brought to the light and saw blood. IL is badly injured, but it is hoped not dangerous lv. No sort of blame is iinnutable to him. N honest man in this orderly community cou.'i have feared such an outrage.

I concluded Id occasionally fall into m*ny •would probably undertake to the difficulty of the process—ne e progated in this adulterated, sl ight in some degree resemble the origi this way its good effects would be oblitera* ted. Under these considerations. I secured the origi* nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases, some of which have so long baffled the skill of me* scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out m 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!1, (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. This (liniment has cured sores of many years stand ing. Where it ft 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-ei^ht hours. CERTIFICATES. From the Hon. John Cache, Member of the House of Re* present olives in Congress. Washington, March 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 my reach without success, I at length procured one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment, and made the application according to the directions ac companying the Ointment, and state, for the benefit of the afflicted, that before one jug was used, a perfect cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health ever since. 1 have no doubt that to the Ointment alone he is indebted! for nothing else was used for more than nine months before the application of the Oint. ment. Respectfully, John Cockb Dr. Wm. Gunton, Washington City. From L P. W. Batch, Esq Counsellor at Law, F>edc• rick, Md Fhxdehick, Md. May 6,1831. Mr. C Herstons I deem it proper to state, for the benefit of the public, that, several years since, two of my children were affected wish scald heaJ of an inve terate character. My family physician, Dr John T. Wilson, of Leesburg,* Va. who was very skilful and ju diciousin his 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, v our obedient servant, L. P. W. Balch. From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Cun• gress. dated a ashington,January 22, 1829 Sin—It has been my wish, for a considerable time, to communicate to you the good elfect with which 1 have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins, and which 1 now understand is made and sold by agents appointed bv yourself, 1 have applied this Ointment during the last three years to every species of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure in every instance. 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, given over by the most distinguished physicians as in curable, and which th y decided would, without ampu tation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under my imme- j diale notice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment, fit a niitiAtiil tu i tv fmp Itli WialimK hu the tumor being restored to a perfectstate of sound* ness. A 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, was ef 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 oithis remedy m cases of tumor and ofulcers» I haveexpe.ienced, as decidedly, the good effect of this remedy in the cure of Felons, and of every species of fresh wound. U seems to me that any one wno wll observe on the operation of this Oint ment, must be satisfied as to its beneficial effect lean with the utmostconlidence recommend the use ofthiB valuable remedy, lain, sir, very respectfully, John (aliai eriio.

The following extract is published by Dr. Lee’s au thority, viz;— v Extract of a letter, written by a verv respectable gen tleman, residing in Baltimore, to the subscriber, who deems it his duty, though unauthorised, to lay it be fore the public, withholding the writer’s name, for particular reference, should any require it person ally. SAM. if. P. LEE. Baltimore, August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. Lke, New London, Conn. Dear Sib—It is now upwards of twenty years that I 1 have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami ly, and al ways 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 1 use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past; i and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve- 1 ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you 1 dad made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac lure to mercenary and unfaithful hands.' Under this I mpression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of t fours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious v mitations from your own manufacture, by having your I IIPKITTEN S1GNA PURE fo each bill of directions, s tnd that in no instance were the imitations signed with ien and ink, although a perfect copy in every other t espact. Finding those 1 had without this test, I be- t! fan to suspect that all was not fair in medicine, as veil as in politics, and called at several of our apothe :aries for your pills, with your written signature. I ound many without this test, but none with it, until 1 ame to the Messrs Keerls’, who assured me they had 1 hem direct from you. 1 procured a box, and on using J bem, found the same effects from them 1 had always b xperienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my J mlitAil fthnv#1 ika tMtffhflftPF i%*« 1 Sib—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of u cuse. which, I think, I received from the Hygeian Medicines. 1 give publicity to the same the more cheerfully; because thereby, perhaps, I may be useful to some of my fellow-mcn, who may My complaint was called' Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may be explicitly under-, stood, l state, in connexion with the relation of the cure, some of the symptoms of'the disease. In Sep tember, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; l was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, 1 was regaining my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be fore in usual health, l found myself bleeding at the lungs, l 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 days; it left me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap petite, and withal, very weak A few weeks determined that I was in a decline I 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. Hut rel*pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill, and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus, months after the first attack, a M tubercle” [small ul cer] broke in the Inngs, after which f spat blood, one .1 n I iwinliiinAil 4 il n/> I i rt.i lns on one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain was a violent burning p *in, almost intolerable; so see vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers p If, and perhaps, over exertion with it. After using a few, doses of Mo, 1 and 2, alternately, about eight pills for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is now restored to health; and 1 have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours teuly, H. DYER. Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834 In justice to Dr. M„ her medical adviser, when he heard her improvement 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 destiue tive lo 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 a.saiu and benign in it operation, and at the same time the most searching out the root of every complaint, how ever deep, and of perfoiminga cure, that was ever offered to the world- This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the patir-nts, 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 fear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustomul habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to excess Experience, which is the touchstone of ail 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, ihe nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, bcca ise they clear the body of its had humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious inenicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, costive ness, &c, The Vegetable Cleansing Powders arc of great as distance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bail humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the icrimoniuus phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst. l,ne, two, or three powders may be taken throughout he day, mixed in half a wine glass of water.

MEAD’S ANTI-DYSPECTIcT^TsTo MACII PILLS, THE only medicine ever yet offered to t!... public, from which a radical and perm,! nent cure can be obtained of all those chro.; states of derangement of the digestive orgaVf. constituting that complicated disease, totnie Dyspepsia. 1 he duty winch the proprietor owes to ety, has induced him to adopt this mode of cir culation, in order to give it a greater range o. publicity, that it may thereby become moie ex tensively useful than it could possibly bo. wt., it confined within the private practice of any individual whatever. The diseases consequent on a morbid state of the stomach and bowel are numerous, complicated, and, for the most part, very difficult of cure. The proprietor of these Pills is happy in hav ingit in his power to offer to all those who ai> afflicted with the above complaint, a medicine in which the most unlimited confidence may he placed, and, for simplicity of composition, may ae given to children and patients of the me t delicate habit. In every chronic case of stomach complaint, where the disease does not depeiul an a schirrus, or cancerous state of that organ 'in which case no medicine whatever can d< iny good,) these pills will effect a certain and speedy cure, after the stomach of the patiently been cloyed with magnesia and chalk, and drenched with all the bitter potions that an could invent, to no purpose. They will most effectually remove all sourness of the stomach 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.
