All advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. _ FRANCE. The annexed article, from the New ork j Courier and Enquirer, contains a very accurate j description of the situation of France at this moment: Events at home have for some time past been of such deep importance, that we have not been able to devote the usual space in our columns to the news which has reached us from abroad. We now avail ourselves of a momentary respite from this pressure to advert to events which have latterly been passing in France, and to the position of affairs there. The Government cf Louis Philippe has evi dently become very unpopular, and to support it, he is compelled to resort to imposing dis plays of military force and to new restrictions on the liberty of the people. Either by acci dent, or from some connexion between the two events, the commotions at Lyons-almost imme diately followed the attempted invasion of Sa voy by General Ramorino and the Polish re fugees. On the occurrence of the former, thir ty thousand troops were encamped on the two banks of the Rhone, and the military divisions in the neighboring departments held in readi ness to march thither. The forts commanding Lyons, and particularly the fort Montessui, were placed in a state of defence and provi sioned for three months. In the first moment of danger, the Government insisted that the disturbances had tneir origin solely in domestic «n_in fho rlicf'cmtpnt nl thp I.vnnese ma v» u*--—- nufacturers at reduced wages; but as the alarm passed away, and the King’s Ministers felt them selves sufficiently strong to put down the insur rection, a different language was held. It was the Republican party, one would suppose, that was in person at Lyons, and was said by a ministerial orator, M. Augustin Giraud, the Government would show that it was sufficient ly powerful to oppose a strong dyke to these re volutionary inunaations.” On the melancholy occasion even of the in terment of M. Dulong, a member of the Cham ber of Deputies who fell in a duel with an aid de-cpmp of the king, another striking instance was given of the insecurity felt by the govern ment, and of their manner of suppressing the ebullitions of popular feeling in the capital. No less than from twenty-five to thirty thousand men were under arms, and a military occupa tion took place of all the principal posts by in fantry, cavalry and artillery. We translate a few detached sentences ot a published account of this ceremony, for the purpose of showing more forcibly the singular state of things now existing in France. At an early hour in the morning an immense display of military power evinced the solicitude of the government, as announced yesterday by the ministerial Bulletin in the shape of a me nace. A corps composed of infantry, cavalry, and artillery, was placed at the Champs Ely sees under the orders of a general officer; and on the Place Vendome, at the Bastille, on the Place de Greve, at la cite Bergere, and differ ent points of the boulevards, troops were sta tioned in great numbers. A battalion of infan try formed in double line, and a squadron of cuirassiers were drawn up before the dwelling of M. Dulong.” The troops which flanked the funeral hearse and the deputies mardhed with their bayonets fixed, thus showing they were not there to ren der military honors to the deceased deputy, but to maintain order. Whilst the procession was turning the fau burg du Temple, some shouts were heard. A commissary of the police gave orders to the town sergeants to arrest the persons from whom they proceeded. The sergeants drew their swords and dashed into the crowd. The mount ed municipal guards, on seeing this movement, came to the spot in full gallop. A general con sternation ensued.” Amongst the restraining laws which the Go h17In h#* pnartpH. is one to prohibit the sale of pamphlets and cheap pa pers by public criers. The execution of this _ la\v*gave rise to some disturbances which are thus spoken of in a paper we have before us. The brutality with which the law against pub lic criers has been put in force for some days past having caused some mobs, new measures have been taken at the Prefecture of Police, and during the week an immense display of troops has been made, supported by a multitude of disguised police agents, all armed with heavy clubs. The peaceable population of Paris has been insulted, trampled under foot, and beaten without mercy; whilst the republican associa tions, on their guard and well organized, have kept themselves entirely out of danger." The debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the subject of the publications sold by the pub lic criers, presents some singular features, of which we will endeavor to give a sketch, for they afford matter for reflection as well as some amusement. The two principal speakers on this occasion were, on the one side, M. Cabot, a deputy and editor of a cheap paper, since con victed of a libel on government, and sentenced to fine, imprisonment, and deprivation of civil rights; and M. D’Argout, the Minister of the in terior, on the other side. The ground taken by the former was, that the patriotic press, as lie termed it, was more than justified in its excess es, if it committed any, by the tone and cha racter of the press paid by the police on the part of the Government. In exposing this last, the papers say, M. Cabot began by displaying an immense bundle of papers which he arranged in order on the as held in his hands, and who will perhaps a* gain hold in his hands, the destinies of a great empire.” It now’ became the turn of the Minister of the Interior, w’hose approach to the tribune, from whencethe deputies address the Chamber, is thus described:— The Minister of the interior directed his steps towards the Tribune,carrying under each arm an enormous packet of newspapers and pamphlets. He held besides in one hand his portfolio, and in the other a volume of law’s rela tive to the public press. On ascending the nar row’ staircase which leads to the Tribune, he met M. Cabot, who descended it, loaded with his books of reference. They came in contact; and each let fall half his burthen. At last, the Minister, amidst the laughter of the members, succeeded in reaching the Tribune, and in ar ranging all his documents before him, in which caricatures and vignettes were prominent ob jects.” Our space will not permit us to do more than allude to the different pamphlets, w hose con tents, the Minister alledged, justified the gov ernment in the severity which they were desi rous to execute towards those propagating them. The first was one entitled Debaucheries of the Clergy.” Another was on the subject ot the lawr they were then discussing. It said among other thin its ct The people shed their blood in July for the liberty of the press, the charter con secrated it. To vote for such a law w’ould be exposing the people to perish by hunger; but the people are powerful, they know’ their rights, they will not allow them to be torn from them with impunity, and the pitcher goes to the w’ell till it—He further particularized a speech of Saint Just in the session of nine Thermidor. A speech of Couthon on the opinion of a mem ber of the Convention on the death of Louis XVI., in which it is insinuated that the specta cle of the death of a King may again be exhi bited, and its conclusions are that Kings are from their birth the enemies of the people, and that they must be exterminated. A placard three feet in height, containing an extract from the works of Maximilian Robes pierre, the declaration of the Rights of Man, with the portrait of Robespierre at its head. It contained a constitution of which the following ,1 1 Tr A nn/1 rP r IS lilt? as heard at the door, at which the youngest of the twTo w as observed to betray no slight degree of nneasinness. In a minute or twro afterwards the room door was entered somewhat abruptly by an elderly gen tleman, evidently in a violent passion, who ad vanced towards the eldest of the twro, and af ter applying divers undignified epithets to him, was about to try the effects of his cane upon the shoulders of the young man, when the noise brought up the aunt, who flew at the old gentle man like a tigress defending one of her cubs. On the arrival of three or four of the board ers, something like order was restored; when the youngest of the two strangers w’as discover ed to have fainted uw?ay. The youth was lift ed on to a sofa, his stock was removed, and the collar of his shirt unbuttoned to facilitate his j breathing—when (oh, shade of phaste Diana! tell it not in Gath!) there was revealed to sight the snowy bosom of as pretty a lass as e’er brush’d dew from lawm.” The lovely stranger lay confess’d, A wife, m all her charms.” It seems that the young lady was the daugh ter of the old gentleman, who, with a view to economy, had caused her to assist his clerk in keeping his books; the young couple, thus thrown, nothing loth, into each other’s way, made such good use of their time, that the old gentleman, on entering the counting room ra ther unexpectedly in the morning, found them keeping tally with their lips instead of their pens; upon which he sent his daughter to reside with her grandmother, at Wethersfield. She contrived, however, to send to and re ceive letters from her lover, in which they planned the elopement. How successful it was put in execution, our readers are already aware. They left Hartford so as to get several hours start of the father, who did not reach New York until 6 o’clock yesterday morning, and suspect ing that they would put up at the aunt’s house, made his way there immediately on arriving in the city. He was, however, too late—the young couple had contrived to have the hymenial knot tied in the afternoon of their arrival. We pre sume this step was taken to avoid the risk in curred in publishing their intention to marry, which mode of procedure is required by the laws of the State of Connecticut. How the af fair will terminate, we know not, as the parties all left New York for Hartford yesterday after noon; but as the father was, in a double sense, a day behind the fair” we would advise him to pocket the affront, and put the best face that he can on the matter.— N.

NEWTON. ALEX AN Jj KIA: WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 7. ,S;j| The recent alarming exposition of gross cor. ruption in the management of the Post Office has attracted public attention to the enorniou" patronage placed in ihc hands of the Post M r ter General. It- is singular that this p0nv should have hitherto called forth so liuje mark; and as we cordially agree with the o nions expressed in the following passages fr the able commentaries of Mr. Justice Story v transfer them with much pleasure to co lumns: The £reat anomaly in the system is the Phr mous patronage of the Postmaster Generi who is invested with the sole and exclusiv thority to appoint and remove all deputy p311 masters; and whose power and influence f,°Sl* thus, by slow degrees, accumulated, until perhaps, not too much to say, that it ritah v it dues not exceed, in value and extent ti 7 v the President himself. How long a pown vast, and so accumulating, shall remain V ->J out any check on the part of any othar br'rr of the government, is a question for statin,," and not for jurists. Cut it cannot be di^uisl* that it will be idle to impose Constitutional r straints upon high executive appointment* 7f this power, which pervades every tillage o? f, republic, and exerts an irresistible, Ihoiteh lent, influence in the direct shape of offer ,7 the no less inviting form of lucrative contract* is suffered to remain without scrutiny or rebui lt furnishes no argument against the interpo tion of a check, which shall require the ad\ imo »ruv7 cuiiUUtl li; UllCl tin means of making it subservient to mere state policy are so abundant, that the only surprise is that it has not already awakened the public jealousy, and been placed under more .effectual control. It may he said, without the slightest disparagement of any officer who has presided over it, that ir ever the people are to pe cor RUPTED, OR THEIR LIBERTIES ARE TO BE PROSTRATED. THIS ESTABLISHMENT WILL FURNISH THE MOST FACIN' MEANS, AND BE THE EARLIEST EMPLOYED TO AC( V PUSH SUCH A PURPOSE.” Charles Carroll Harper, to guard against m.> representations of the speech which lie deliver ed at the public meeting in Baltimore on Wed nesday before last, lias caused a report of I.is spcecli to be published. It does him honor. The sentiments to which he gave utterance on the occasion are worthy of Ids lineage. We* cannot deny ourselves the pleasure of introduc ing to our readers the following extract from it [Extract from Mr. Harper’s speech.J “The signs of the times, fellow-citizens, are indeed portentous. I may be mistaken—I hope 1 am—but I think 1 clearly see that a conspira cy exists in this country—nay, in this govern ment—against the very existence of the senate of the United States. Fur from me to impute to the President any such design: lie is an .ho norable and an honest man. Far from me to impute such plotsto any of his constitutional ad visers. But it cannot be denied, for it cannot be concealed, that there is at Washington a cabal, secret but not unseen, who take advan tage of the President’s impetuosity of charac ter, and his prejudices, and perhaps his want of acquaintance with public a flairs, to urge him on to acts, of which he does not perceive the end, and for which those base advisers are not responsible themselves. When I voted foi Andrew Jackson, Aid not vote for this cabal: and, while he remains under their control, I will not regard him as the man whom I humbly labored to exalt. 1 shall look upon him as on all other men, as “enemies in war, in peac*' friends.” I will sustain him when I agree wit him, and oppose him when 1 do not. For him self.personally, I have more than feelings of re> poet, I have feelings of affection; and the da;, when he shall emerge from behind the curtain nf that cabal that obscures him now—tilt* dav lie shall discard those irresponsible advisers, un known to our constitution and moral habits, an worthy only of the anti-chambers of a royai palace, who have thrown a temporary tarni' on his well-earned fame—that day shall be a day of jubilee for my heart. He has been made to appeal to oui sympathies and passions. lie need no have appealed to my sympathies—they an* all with him. He need not have appealed t our passions, if his arguments were sound.

The American Trade.—The unparalleled em irrassments amongst the commercial classes >the United States have produced a great stag 1 tion in the trade between this country and mat recently flourishing republic. The nume failures which have occurred in New-\ ork, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and the other cities of •he Union, have been felt both directly and in Srectly in England. Directly in their effect on •nlividual firms, and indirectly in their effect oil }?e general state of credit. There is, of course, 1 ^reat indisposition on this side of the Atlan ?c°to risk goods, or to enter into commercial transactions at present, in a country' in which 'doubted solvency and unblemished integrity e n0 securities against embarrassment and jn antnhe commercial classes on the other notwithstanding Governor WolPs uniform, ^equivocal, and faoorable expression of opi m°n, concerning the Bank of the U. States, his uund had undergone a sudden, unaccountable, uud unexpected chatige. It was said the change as effected in a single night! In his message, U|e Governor had thought fit to express his ale,wJ concerning the Bank, in a most doubting u hesitating manner. He had indulged in a °urse of inuendo and insinuation, which was n)' thing but fair and honorable; and to say e least of them, totally unfitted for the high atlon which Gov. Wolf occupied, most unjust jvards the Bank, as well as unfounded in fact, u Hi is brief sketch of Mr. UcKennan’s re UfAS concerning Governor Wolf’s sutitieii con cersionf (which, in consequence of what pass ed in the Senate the other day between Messrs. Clay and McKean, has been a good deal talked of here yesterday and to-day,) 1 wish to show what is the opinion entertained on the subject by an honest and enlightened member of the Pa. delegation, who is highly respected both at home and abroad, both in Congress and out of it, for his sterling, worth and unbending integri ty, both as a politician and citizen. And sure ly the opinion of such a man, preferring as he does, truth, justice, and conscience, to office and executive favor, is'more, much more than that of one who omits no opportunity to pro mote his own interest and aggrandisement by singing loud hoSannas to the reigning power, who basks in the smiles of the Court, and who is ever ready to -bend the pregnant hinges of the knee, That thrift may follow fawning. Correspondence of the Baltimore Patriot. Washington, May 4th, 1834. There is a rumor which prevails here with some force but to which 1 do not give an ear, though I send it to you as shewing you which way the wind blows,—that the President intends to abdicate, to resign to Van Buren, and go home to the Hermitage, where, on his planta tion, he can find more obedient subjects than he finds here,—which by the way, is rather diffi cult, when we look to the drilled New Yorkers in the House of Representatives. I know that the imbecile old man feels mortified and disgra ced by the part he has been made to play in the Protest—provoked beyond measure by the mean support of only eleven votes for his Bank Directors, and that he has again been compelled to back out, in the assertion that he would nom inate no others than the rejected:—I know that he is frightened by the elections on all sides, and these facts would induce me to give a wil ling ear, did I not know that he is ambitious, and that he loves power as he loves his life, and that he loves money as much as either. First then, I know he will never surrender Power or Prerogative till he is compelled to surrender, and secondly, I know that he loves his salary of $25,000 per annum as much as any old miser loves his bags of gold. The main chance is much with the old man,—and the income of $25,000 a year more than one hall ot which-he probably saves, will never be sacrified,'so long as he can hold on to it. No man knows better how to save a penny than Gen. Jackson,—and to give up the Presidency, if lie were not ambi tious, at the loss of $30,000 or 40,000 dollars, is what he never will consent to, so that if this ru mor so current here, reachesyou from any other quarter, you may nip it in the bud at once. Appointments by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate.—James Dun lop, William O’Neale, and Thomas Carbery, to be Inspectors of the Penitentiary, in the District of Columbia. Tue first of May, with all its chagrins, its tri als and its ‘‘moving accidents,” has come—but not gone—although the twenty four hours which rounded its little life have indeed expired. But we do not mean to attempt any sketch—which yet in the hands of adequate persons might be done with great effect, and possibly some benefit—of the miseries and losses—particularly those of temper—incident to this annual derangement in our goodly city—and only refer to it to speak rf Hie great movement already commenced in Bro: way, for the construction of the Hotel. The fine large brick houses between Vesey. and Barclay streets—but twenty-four hours ago the abode of luxury and elegance—are already in a state of ruin, and in twice as many more hours, perhaps, will have disappeared. Immense blocks of granite, on which, as a foundation, the future Hotel is to arise, are strewed along Barclay street, and preparations on a large scale seem every where in forwardness, to give to our city with all possible despatch, a building it so much needs, and for the sake of having which, even the ladies will tolerate the interruption that must for a time unavoidably be given, by the lumbering piles of building materials, to their favorite walk. The building is, we understand, to be a quad rangle, embracing the whole front on Broad way, between Barclay and Vesey streets—about 200 feet we judge,—and to run back, on each of these streets, about 17d feet. I lie mate rial to be granite. The lower story on the streets is to be for shops—and all above and around, a furnished Hotel—-with suites of apartments, adapted to all variety of purses. Of the general plan, however, and the details, we will take some other opportunity of present ing a full description.— V. V. Arner. CABINET, CHAIR, AND SOFA MANUFAC TORY. LEONARD O.

In the Senate yesterday, Mr. Calhoun, de livered a concise, but able argument in opposi tion to the President’s Protest. He was replied to by Mr. Forsyth, and Mr. Forsyth was fol lowed by Mr. Preston. [A further notice of this debate, which was very interesting, will be taken hereafter.] The question was then taken on Mr. Cal houn’s resolution, offered at the conclusion ot his speech, that the President had no right to send his Protest to the Senate, which was de cided in the affirmative—Ayes 27, Noes 17. Mr. Calhoun’s resolution, that the Protest be not received, was not carried, the opposition believing that the Protest had been received by the mere reading of it. The question then coming up on Mr. Poindex ter’s resolutions, in relation to the Protest, Mr. Webster took the floor to make some remarks, and the Senate adjourned. In the House of Representatives, the Com mittee on Elections made a report in the case of Mr. Moore and Mr. Letcher, from Kentucky, in favor of Mr. Moore’s right to his seat.

Botanical Drops! are every year increasing their long established repu tation. They have outlived many rival preparations, and are continually gaining upon public confidence. The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he reditary predisposition in the patient, and generally appear under the various and distressing shapes of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St. Anthony s Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foul and Ob stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and V In the last mentioned condition ot the system, t^e Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk ing poison, where mercury has totally faded, and thus prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he reditary disease on his offspring. Dr. Relfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on the skin—and other diseases of the external surface; and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics known, to free the system from humors. A physician of eminence, who had witnessed the ef ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack nowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the best medicine known, for the complaints for which it is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at the head of the whole class of such remedies.

IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civilised 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 adminis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms -oppression of the breast; greenish and bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri veiled extremeties, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses sionofthe mental faculties, and while hope still whis pers her flattering tale—cold extiemities, and a pre mature death. For the various stages of this complaint, one of the most approved remedies ever yet discovered is DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.

Very respectfully, your obedient servant, L. P- W. Balch. From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con gress, dated Washington, January 22, 1829. Sir—It has been my wish, fora considerable time, to communicate to you the good effect with which 1 have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins, and which I now understand is made and sold by agents appointed by 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 1 have found nothing so good for wounds of any description It may be proper to idd, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling, ijiven over by the most distinguished physicians as in curable, and whichth iy decided would, withoutampu iation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under my imme diate notice, effected by the use of J udkins* Ointment, *nd the patient is in fine health. His limb affected by Lhe tumor being restored to a perfect state of sound ness. -ilso that the leg of an aged man which had been wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur 'ace 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 qfthis remedy in cases of tumor ind ofulcerst I have expe.ienced, as decidedly, the jood effect of this remedy in the cure of Felons, and of every species of fresh wound.

The following extract is published by Dr. Lee's au hority, viz:— Extract of a letter, written by a very respectable gen tleman, residing in Baltimore, to the subscriber, who deems it his duty, though unauthorized, to lay it be- fore the public, withholding the writer's name, for particular reference, should any require it person- j ally. SAM. H. P- LEE. Baltimoiie, August, 1828. Joctor S. H. P. Lee, New London, Conn. Deah Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that I t lave used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami y, and always found them an efficient purgative in al* nost every description of disease, and believe they sa* ed many a long doctor's bill by their early and timely ise. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary n their operation and effects until a few months past; a nd having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve- f y instance of using them, I began to conclude that you 1 lad made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac- a ure to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this f mpression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of ours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious v imitations from your own manufacture, by having your I VRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions, s nd that in no instance were the imitations signed with ien and ink, although a perfect copy in every other ti espact. Finding those I had without this test, I be- tl an to suspect that ail was not fair in medicine, as /ell as in politics, and called at several of our apothe- aries for your pills, with your written signature. I )und many without this test, but none with it, until I ame to the Messrs. Keerls*, who assured me they had 1 lem direct from you. I procured a box, and on using J iem, found the same effects from them I had always b xperienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my- si e^fin possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that hat I cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this nformation. (Ej* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu ■ions imitations, as related above, the purchaser has >nly to examine the bill of directions covering each jox, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, md prepared by me; but if ohlt the printed name is iffixed. they are spurious, and to be avoided. S. H. P. LEE, New London, Conn. Dec. 1823. _____________ H Y GEIANISM. THE following testimonials of thS superior efficacy of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of our diseases, speak in a language which must carry conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:— Bhown University, Dec. 25, 1833* To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege table Universal Medicines, for the State of Rhode Island. Sin—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of a cure, which, I thtnk, 1 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-men, who may be afflicted with a similar disease. My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition maybe explicitly under stood,! 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; 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; wdien, after about three weeks, in the course of the 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 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. But relapse 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 tubercle” [small ul i i i t r. i i uei j urunL1 m iimgb, uutr wmcu i spai uiuuu, uue day. 1 continued to decline tw omonths longer, when I obtained the Hygeian Medicines. I 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 furred, 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, Ike. Ike. Such was my condition, when I first became acquainted with the Hygeian Medicines I 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, 1 took about four doses a week, until I had taken about thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored to health. After I commenced the Hygrian, I took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I w’as able to resume my 9tudi- s in college, where I have since remained without any recurrence of the disease Hitherto I have been convalescent; and if my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain 1 have less pains, and am more free from temporary sickness* than at any time since my earliest recollec tion. Yours, with respect, HORACE T. LOVE* Dr. H. Siibi'IIbaud Moat. Dear Sir—I wish to state that my sister, after severe suffering, and employing a medical man three years, was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines. Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indeed, to use her ow»n expression, her js on one side had turned in, actually deformed. The pain was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers e> If, and perhaps, over exertion w ith it. After using a few, doses of No, I and 2, alternately, about eight pills for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, 9he 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 truly, H. DYER. Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834 Injustice 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 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 pl.-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 produced by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva cuation, with.the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion oil bodily sirenglh, and without the tear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustomc 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, ihe feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are n 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 ifficacious menicineto take to sea; preventing scurvy, :ostiveness, &c, The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as listance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of >ad humours; they sollen, cleanse, and detach the icrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and aljay the thirst. >ne, two, or three powders may be taken throughout he day; mixed in half a wine glass of water.

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 ing it in his power to offer to all those who are afflicted with the above complaint, a medicine in which the most unlimited confidence maybe placed, and, for simplicity of composition, may be given to children and patients of the mo>t delicate habit. In every chronic case of stomach complaint, where the disease does not depend on a schirrus, or cancerous state of that organ, (iu which case no medicine whatever can do any good,) these pills will efTect a certain and speedy cure, after the stomach of the patient has been cloyed with magnesia and chalk, and drenched with all the bitter potions that art 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.
