WHITE. RENOVATING LIQUID. Prepared and sold by R. S. BERNARD, Drug gist. Norfolk. Virginia. RECENT DISCOVERY.—R. S. Bernard’s Renovating Liquid, for extracting all kind# of Oils, Paints, Tar, and Grease, from the most delicate colored Silks, Satins, Cloths, Bomba zines, or Velvets, without injuring, in the least, their color or texture. No danger need be apprehended in using it upon the finest and most delicute Silks—nor is it like the soaps so commonly advertised in our day, which, by removing one evil, almost in variably produce another of double size; nor does it require the preparatory means of all other renovators—such as hot irons and the like. Only a little clean water, according to the direction, is wanting. Oil or Grease of any kind can be extracted from the most delicate colored carpets, without the usual trouble of taking them up. If used according to the directions, it will at once ex tract every particle of grease from the finest Cloth, or most delicate Silks, without injur ing in the least the color or texture. m R31* The subscriber has appointed Wili.iahi Stabler, Druggist, Alexandria, his Agent for selling the above article.

THE GAZETTE. By EDGAR SNOWDEN. Daily pap°i* S3 per annum. Country paper 5 per annum. The ALEX YNDRIA GAZETTE for the coun try is printed on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. All advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. newspapers. It is an astonishing fact, that in a countrv free as ours is, ami where every voter once or twice a year is called upon to discharge a duty at the ballot box, there are many persons, who never read a newspaper, and who know but little j more what is going on in their own country than in the dominions ol the Grand Mogul.— What they learn of their own political affairs,, they learn from verbal communications, sub- jectasit is to various perversions, colorings,1 and misconception—and acting upon such com munications only, they venture to attempt to discharge the high and holy, and of course res ponsible duty of a judge over men’s actions and principles. They venture upon attempting to settle the affairs of a great nation, extending through various degreosof latitude, and embo-1 dying an immense variety of interests and pre- i judices—and this without the study of qualifica tions demanded even in the teacher of a com mon country school, extending not over 20 feet square! What a judge! Newspapers are in this country one of the necessaries of life, second only to food and clo-j thing, and as imperiously demanding the atten tion and forethought of men, as lire and habita tions. Think of living in this world, and of knowing nothing of what is going on within it! Think of a revolution here, and an earthquake there—of a grand discovery here, a sublime in vention there—of movements and agitations in one place, influencing the destinies of nations and the world for years, and of improvements and advances in other places, elevating and en nobling the condition of man—and yet a free man, in a free country, standing amidst all, af !ected.by all, and yet ignorant of all! What a blank, a cypher, is such a man! how little above a mere animal, who eats as he eats, breathes as he breathes, and above whom he is, only in the faculty of speech! For what is intellect without facts, information, direction, calculation? What but a mere slumbering, raked up, smothered ember, needing the fanning breeze of what is going on in the world, what tire woild does as inspired by what it knows—and that breeze, the news of the day, the hurry, the bustle and ex citement of the time in which we live, move, and think? Talk ofpast knowledge! It is a good foundation on which to build. But the super structure is to be reared now. This moment’s knowledge, is worth all past knowledge, as time present is worth more than time past. As he who would benefit mankind, or do honor to him self, must come forth into the world, and know what the world is doing, and shape and embo dy its energies. History is important; every ooay grants.— Science is important in nil estimation. Politics are government,—and as a government is good or bad, so is a people prosperous or wretched, generally speaking. But here, in a newspaper, we have* tty* history of the very day, all spread before us with a vitality and freshness no histo rian can equal. The very things themselves, not their images, not their shadowy ghosts, tlit before you. The substance out of which histo ry is to be woven, is upon the table. Men talk for themselves—and no historians talk lor them. You are living among all, and are interested in all—and will ye refuse to buy, to read, aye, to study, what ye are so much interested in'? Hut newspapers are more than historians. They parade before you all the inventions and disco veries of the times:—they trifle with you, sport with you, and amuse you, and condole with you, as well as instruct you. By your own fire side, far from the scenes of interest, no matter whe ther you are in the crowded city or in a remote country house, yet they bring all before you, and to the very life:—and you are as well and better informed by them than he who has seen and participated in all. You need not stir from yu»ir farm, or your ow n chair, from your bed even; and yet these little messengers, silent and speechless as they are, will take you into the wide world and show forth all that is going on. Portland Advertiser. Life of a Newspaper—by itself. My life is shortly told. My first impression was the sensation of a tremendous squeeze which instantly awoke me into life and thought. I was now spread out to light, and a glow of intelli gence completely pervaded me. My ideas were at first new% multifarious, and confused. Na tions, politics, courts, wars, speeches, fightings, feasts merchandize, marriages, deaths, ditties, &c. «fcc. made up my thoughts, which were va rious and mixed, and I lay in a silent stale of wonder and amazement. I soon found that I was but one of the large family, that was ush* ered into the world at the same time by the same prolific mother. Our whole litter was laid in regular order in a pile; my situation being one of the first born, was particularly oppres sed, damp and uncomfortable. 1 had a silent, intuitive, longing wish to get into the world, which was at length gratified. Morning and night came, and I was carefully folded and laid, Moses like, into a basket by an urchtTi who was called the carrier. The said carrier i soon found was an object of interest and desire. He was soon accosted by an elderly looking man. with thread bare rusty breeches: have you got a spare paper this morning, my boy?’ said tightstring. No sir,’ was the short reply, and he trudged on, muttering, ‘not as you know on, old Gripe; you are the same chap that promis ed me some coppers the other room in/, and haint paid me yet; you are too stingy to take the papers, but won’t get another from me, I guess.’ My brethren were now fast leaving me. being deposited at their proper destinations; at length my turn came, and 1 was tucked into the crevice of a shop door. The first sample of the kind was not at all preposessing. 1 had not been long in my new situation, when a reluc tant apprentice, swinging a key on his hand, wistfully eyed me; and casting a loook about him, feloniously seized and thrust me into his pocket. My rightful owner, by virtue of ad vance pay, hailed and arrested the pilferer, and with threats compelled him to relinquish his Frize. He entered the shop, and soon found that was the first object of interest. After hastily drying me by the fire, in the progress I narrow ly escaped conflagration, he ran over me; and fixed his eyes upon sales at auction, advertise raents, dkc. I was then more particularly axami ned and dismissed with condemnation. Noth ing but foreign news, Congress and cabinet, love stories and accidents by flcod^and .field; a newspaper should be a commercial report; one side at least should be devoted to prices cur rent.’ I was then pettishly thrown upon the counter, but was soon in requisition. A bare head boy made his appearance, with a please to lend Ma your paper a few minutes, just to look over the ship news?” The request was reluc tantly granted, withsomethingabout the plague of paper borrowing, a determination to stop it. I was soon borne to a neighboring house. The good old woman,'whose husband was at sea, eagerly sought the ship news, but was disappoint ed in her search. ‘How negligent these pun ters are,’ said she, not a word ot intelligence or the Wind Bird; they print of Poland poetry, and fill their papers with advertisements,and that wall they care about.’ Miss now took her tut n. Sne sought the stories, the poetry, and the marriages, which in half an hour were all devoured, with a wonder that they put any thing else in the paper. AH CIUCll) 14»u; iiw” »iv, her spectacles, surveyed me a litt.e while, and declared me a terribly uninteresting paper, hardly a column of deaths, and not more than fifteen or twenty accidents.’ In this way I pas sed through all hands of the family, and after being well soiled and somewhat torn by the lit- tie ones, was sent home. For three whole days I have had no rest, but was continually borrow ed and abused. At the end of this period 1 was supplanted by a new face, and was then discard ed and thrown aside iikeall servants when they become useless. 1 was, however, again resus citated, and employed as a wrapper to some merchandize and sent into the country. There, I again became an object of interest, went the rounds of the neighborhood, and was a nine days’ wonder.’ Iam now quietly hanging up in a shattered condition in a farmer’s kitchen, from which I have written this brief memoir. I have seen much of the world, and have learned that mankind are unreasonable, and ungrateful, and that in a world of great variety of taste and wishes, it is impossible to please all.

It is mentioned, ns one of the facts showing the operation of the measures of the Executive, that ttie ship America sailed from the port of New York, a few days ago, for Liverpool, with one hundred and fifty steerage passengers, be ing emigrants returning from the United States, after taking a look at them. These men, it is suggested for the consideration of the President andT his advisers, have been bought up by the Bank, and shipped off, in the same manner that merchants have failed, and local banks stopped payment, for effect!—Nat.

The Speech which is going its rounds in the papers as that of John Adams in support of the Declaration of Independence, might well indeed have been pronounced by that illustrious wor thy, admirably in keeping as it is with his cha racter for fervent elocution and determined pa triotism; but the honour of its authorship ap pertains to Mr. Webster. It is to be found in his eulogy upon Adams and Jefferson, in w'hich, with exquisite felicity, he throws open in imagination the doors of the hall of Con gress at the moment of the debate concern ing ‘f the glorious instrument,” and puts into the mouhs of both its prominent opponent and advocate, such a discourse as he supposes each of them might have delivered. No better proof of the success of the bold attempt could be de sired than the mistake to which it has given rise. National Gazette. Chatham Street Chapel— Another scene, dis graceful to the city, and still more disgraceful to thefomenters and perpetrators of the riot, oc curred yesterday evening at this desecrated edi fice. ft was purchased a few years since, for the avowed object of converting a theatre to a pluce of public worship, but is now appropriat ed to purposes of riot and outrage. From the best information we can collect, the following are the facts relating to this last insult to the feelings of the city: The Chatham-street Chapel is under lease for Monday and Thursday evenings of each week, to the New York Sacred Music Society, which consists of a most respectable association of la dies and gentlemen of this city. Of this society Mr. Justice Lownds is President, and Dr. Wm. Rockwell Vice President. An officer of the church applied yesterday to Mr. Lownds, in behalf of Mr. Tappan, for the use of the large room for church purposes. The request was readily granted, the officer remarking that the ittendance of the members of the Society wfas unall at this season of the year, and that those who should come forward could occupy one of the side rooms. When the members of the Society arrived at the gate, they found that, instead of being occu pied for Church purposes, in the sense meant to be conveyed, it was thronged by a congregation of blacks, assembled to hear a bluck preacher by the name of Hewes. j-c-. That the members of the Sacred Music So ciety should feel indignant at this abuse of their confidence, is not surprising. Justly deeming that a consent thus surreptitiously obtained was not valid, they claimed their right of possession. The Vice President, Dr. Rockwell, asserted that right in their behalf, in a manner altoge ther mild and peaceable. One of the colored men—a respectable person, by the name of Wright, w® believe a student for the ministry— admitted the reasonableness of the claim, and requested his colored brethren to retire. In an instant, says a morning contemporary, a black leilUW up anu uiici-iru uic i-uugi Lguuwu to keep their seats.” A dozen insolent fellows then rose and swore that the blacks should not leave tlieir places. Indignant at this, the Soci ety took possession of the pulpit, and led one of the officials out of it—but still, without the least degree of violence. A struggle then commenc ed, the ladies of the Society retired, and the blacks rushed upon the orchestra w’ith clubs and canes, beat the Vice President violently over the head, and severely injured several others, throw ing benches and every missile upon which they could lay their hands, and succeeded, by their overwhelming superiority of numbers, in driv ing the Society, temporarily, from the scene. The chairs and benches were broken into clubs, the lamp broken, and a principal part of the furniture of the Chapel nestroyed by the blacks. The police officers and the w’atchmen in the lower district at length collected in suffi cient numbers to queli the riot, and at about 10 o’clock the house was cleared and the doors clo sed. Several persons were bruised and had their clothes torn, but we do not learn that any fatal, or even dangerous, wounds were inflicted. Six of the rioters w’ere arrested and conveyed to the watch-house. Gangs of black fellows w’ere congregated at the corners of the streets through the night, some of whom threatening to burn the city, and declaring that at the next time they would be in sufficient force to over come.the whites. Even till after daylight this morning they were parading the streets, breath ing violence and revenge. I f this state of things is to be suffered to conti nue, neither white men nor women can much longer leave their doors in safety. The blacks, however, are far less guilty than the reckless fanatics w»ho urge them on. We regret any re sort to personal violence; but the finger of scorn and the scowl of reprobation should meet these fomenters of mischief wherever they go. £Cf=* Since the above was in type, we learn that handbills have been circulated this morn ing, breathing the true French Revolutionary character— “Resistance to Tyrants—Obedience to God.”—N. V. Com. Most Uestrurtive Lonjtagration.—adoui one o’clock this morning we were awakened from our slumbers by the alarm bells for fire, and on looking out found it to be in the lower part of the city, and apparently raging with great fury. On hastening to the snot we found it to be the large five story brick bui'ding No. 209, Pearl street, four doors east from Maiden lane, and occupied on the first floor by Messrs. Doremus, Suydam Nixon, wholesaledry good merchants —the second floor by Messrs. Bowers Addoms, dealers in the same articles. So rapid had been the progress of the flames within, before the fire was known without, that the cntiro building was almost instantly envelop ed in flames before twenty persons had arrived on the spot. The whole of this building, with all it contain ed, was soon a heap of burning embers. On the arrival of the engines, so intense was the heat, that it was for some time impossible to ap proach within playing distance. The building was owned by Mr. Redmond, and was insured —its value may be stated at$i2,f)00. Messrs. Doremus, Nixon Co. were insured for $10,000, which is not near the value of their goods. We have been told that but a few days since, $20,000 worth of stock had been received into their stor*. The adjoining store east, No. 211, also of the same dimensions, was soon in flames, and the four upper stories destroyed. This building was owned by Mr. William Colgate, and insur ed for $5,000, about one half of its cost. The first floor was occupied by Theo. F. Brett and Doremus, who had an insurance of $10,000. Tire second floor was occupied by John Rankin, im porter of lace goods. A large portion of the goods in the lower story were taken out consi derable damaged. The building adjoining Messrs. Doremus,Suy dam Nixon on the west, was a three story, (No. 207.)—It was occupied by Rpvo C. Ilance, wholesale dry good merchant, and the second floor by T. H. Messenger, as an umbrella ware-, house. A considerable portion of Mr. Hance’s goods were removed to Mr. Coskey’s store in Maiden lane—the whole of Mr. Messenger’sj stock w’as destroyed. The destruction of this building was caused by the falling ol one of the high walls from the adjoining store—the noise of which was distinctly heard by persons in Green wich-street. We reg-ret to add that n member of engine No. 14 had his arm broken in two places, by coming in contact with the brake of No. II while she was playing. It is impossible, at this moment, to state the actual loss of property. Wc have heard it stat ed at tw'o hundred thousand dollars—the lowest sum conjectured is one hundred thousand. Jtr" The fire it will be recollected broke out at one o’clock, and at the hour we are writing (one o’clock) many of the firemen are still ac tively engaged, being a periOL of service of twelve hours, with the thermometer the whole time from 72 to 88. rosTCRipr.—Half Past one o click.— w e have just ascertained that there was insurance on the property destroyed and damaged to the amount one hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

What good friends the present administration have been to the gold miners of the South, whom they are now attempting to gain by the credit they ore taking for the Gold Bill! The average value of the Sp. Doubloon for six years, ha* been #16 42.— We believe that by adding one per cent, to the average value of gold for the last 6.years, we shall have its correct proportion to silver, as near as the changeable nature of their relative values w-ill admit. This would make the Eagle worth $10 60.—X. Y. Advocate. From Buenos Ayres.—The brig Mary Helen has arrived at Boston from Buenos Ayres, bringing intelligence from the latter place to the 17th of May. The items contained in the pa pers are rather numerous than important. The House of Representatives convened on the 5th of May, and Governor Viamonte, in his mes sage, expresses a willingness to receive a Con sul from the United States, and observes that our Government had been notified of the caus es that had delayed the intended mission to ad just the difficulties that had occurred relative to the Falkland Islands. The affairs of the Re-! public are represented as being generally pros perous, although the treasury was incumbered with a heavy debt. His Excellency recom mends this subject to the early and serious consideration of the House. The dispute between the province of Corri entes and Paraguay, after all the preparations for hostile movements, had been amicably ad justed. The British Charge d’Affaires,on application to the government to interfere against the fitting out of a vessel to be employed in the slave trade, was assured that measures would be tak en to prevent a commerce as contrary to the justice and civilization of the age, as it is to the sentiments of the government of Buenos Ayres.’' Sen. Ridaviva, formerly Governor of Buenos Ayres, returned to that city on the 28th of April from Havre, after an absence of about five years,—but no sooner had he landed, than he 1cas required by the governor to re-c.inbark, until the decision, of the House of Representa tives on the subject should be obtained! The reason for this extraordinary requirement had not transpired.—JV. V. Com. The Whig Celebration at Boston, on the 4th inst. is said never to have been surpassed in this country. There were 2500 subscribers, who, af ter passing through several ot the principal streets, were seated at the table about half past 2, when, says the Transcript, the whole com pany, on signal from the President, rose and stood in silence whilst the Rev. Mr. Parkinan invoked a blessing of the King of Kings, jn a prayer of fervent aspiration, followed by a si multaneous and heart felt Amen. The ‘coup d’ceil’ of the Pavillion, after the company was seated, all uncovered, and all 1 facing towards the President, with the national flags and pendants floating above them in rich profusion—pillars entwined with garlands and flowers distributed with lavish hand, wherever the eye found resting place—the bright sun shin ing through the open spaces in the tented roof, and letting the blue sky peep in—the perfect decorum and propriety o.f deportment that pre vailed, from the centre to the remotest corner ol the Pavillion—the gentle, but animated hum of two thousand voices, making the air redolent of happiness, produced impressions surpassing ly grateful to every heart that throbbed within the enclosure.” l lit; Irguiai luoMS iiiiu suuga wuc propriute, and many distinguished guests were present. Messrs. Davis, Adams, Webster, Bur ges, Evans, and Lincoln, were invited, but not being able to reach Boston in time, each made replies, and appended a toast, which we copy. By Mr. Davis—Our Country.

Evans—The City of Boston: ‘Where American Liberty raised its first vole©, and where its youth was maintained and sustained. It.will fall at last, if fall it must, amid the proud est monuments of its own glory, and on the ve ry spot of its origin.” By Levi Lincoln—“ The occasion, and those who are engaged in its celebration—the former 1 consecrated to Civil Liberty, the latter true to the principles that gave it birth.” The Transcript adds—“ Nothing can bet- ter evince the perfect propriety of conduct 1 which prevailed than the fact, communicated by the gentleman who supplied the tables with glass and crockery ware, that Four Dollars! will cover all the breakage—and this in a com pany where the tables were laid for twenty five hundred!!

ALEXANDRIA: FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 11, 1834. EDITOR’S CORRESPONDENCE. Alb::marlk Cocsty, Va., Jcly 8, 1834. j the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette. L)kah Sir:—The Whig Festival at Charlottes ville on the 4th was a very spirited and success ful atfair. There has been nothing seen to ^ual it in this county since Lafaye tte’s visit \t 3 o’clock, about 400 gentlemen sat down to the table, Col. Preston of the Senate, Gen. Cordon, Mr. Kice Garland and Mr. McDowel Moore of the House, and Gov. Barbour, being among the invited guests present. The cloth being removed, after several set toasts, one j w l5 offered complimentary to Col. Preston, who arose and addressed the company for about. three quarters of an hflbr with a degree of ener-1 ity and eloquence, which enchained their atten- I tion and wound them up to the highest degree j of patriotic enthusiasm. No man, that had the soul of an American within him, could sit there, within sight of the grave of the illustrious Jef- j ferson, and listen to his glowing descriptions, painted to the very life, of the corruptions and misrule of the times, without feeling his l irgi niu bl»od boil with indignation. His address, was, indeed, a treat; and could it have been heard by every man in Albemarle, Jacksonisin would doubtless have been, ere that sun went down, among the lost thines on earth, as far as ti.is co.tuty is concerned. Ali the leading to- jitcs were touched upon and set forth in their proper light;—the Post Office, the Stevenson af j ur, Kitohie’s letter to the K. C., and even the s nrrection man of musty documents received u v\ratch from his scythe, as he proceeded to n:o v down the remaining satellites of Juckson ,s:u III the course of his remarks, the Colonel n inkwill not take hereabouts any longer;— Mr. Preston has nailed that to the counter ef fectually: indeed, it is the general opinion that all the musty documents that can be paraded (though bound in marble paper) will not be suf ficient to revive it. Yesterday, being umui aay, v»**n. uuiuuu mi dressed the peopb in Charlottesville. He spoke j in a bold ami manly style, such as became a freeman. He told them that he went to Wash lgton strongly prepossessed in favor of the administration, and that he had given it his support as long as he could do so consistently with what lie conceived to be the rights of his constituents; but that, when these were invaded, in* felt it to be his duty, his pride, to desert Gen. Jackson. Ills address was received with nuich applause. It is understood that a real set-to is to be made at this gentleman—extra pay and ••very thing else is to be brought to bear against him; and as Mr. \V. C. Hives cannot get into the Senate, he is willing to take a seat in the ither House. 1 think, at present, that the tide of opinion is rising very strongly against the administration. 1 have conversed with several, who were up to the hub at the last election, who, having rid themselves of the bank delu are decidedly against Mr. Rives and his party. The people of this county are as patri otic as any on the face of the earth; and it is oalv necessity for them to view things in their proper light, to induce those into whose keeping '•ic ashes of a JeJ»*rson are confided, to come ml gallantly in defence of the Constitution and ’.‘unr country’s dearest ;utcrests. Yours, respectfully. The Jackson men, with -Mr. W. C. Rives at ’heir head, had gathered atxwt 150 persons to gether. between MonticeHo am? the place where rhe Whig Jubilee was celebrated, under the guise of having a People’s dinner the number being too small to call it by its proper name. DISTRESSING ACCIDENT. Extract of a letter, daird Winchester, Va. Jury 8, 1834. We wore favored, ou Sunday eveoing last, with a passing visit by the Hon. Henry" Clay*, who was invited to partake of a public diuner. bat declined the invitation, and proceeded on his journey up the Valley next morning, by way of the White Sulphur Springs. He was waited 4>n by ntost of our respectable citizens during lit' stay. I am inclined to think that he would ha\ 'e accepted the invitation, but for a melan hoi v occurrence which took place near Bruce •own about eight mile? north-east ot Winches ter. The stage in which he was travelling (aD aged lady ouly being in company) upset in-'as cending a hill near Brucetown, by which young Mr. Hemnesickbousc (son and agent ofthe stage contractor) was almost instantly killed. He was sitting on the seat with the driver; the hor ses started to run, which alarmed the young man; he seized one of the wheel horse lines, and j endeavored to check him, which had the effect of breaking the breast strap; this let the stage up on the horse; he became alarmed, and, by a sud den plunge, threw the stage from the track, drew the young man from his seat, and capsized the stage upon his head and neck! The front wheels became disengaged, which released the affright ed horses, and saved, doubtless, the lives of Mr. Clay and the Jady, who were within. Mr. C. and the driver instantly released the young man, but life had nearly fled. Mr. Clay, while here, I appeared much distressed on the young man’s account, as he had become, he said, somewhat i attached to him, from a short acquaintance be I fore he left the inside of the stage. But for this occurrence, I think it probable that Mr. C. would have stayed to partake of the dinner. Mr. Clay himself, I understood, remained with the young man until he saw him properly attended to, and left him in care of his acquaintances of the line, to whom he furnished all means of information in his power, in order to apprise the neighbors of the accident Our town is, as it has been during the spring, very dull, and at present particularly so, it be ing the harvest hurry. Our Wheat crop is ge nerally very fine and heavy; Corn looks flou rishing; and the country enjoys, generally, to lerable health.” It will be seen, by an advertisement in this day’s paper, that the ingenious Artist, Mr. Finn, has commenced his wonderful operations in Fancy Glass Work. We can assure our read ers that a visit will belully repaid by the amuse ment and instruction afforded by Mr. F.’s per formances. The Heather.—On Thursday morning a brisk N. w. wind suddenly and unexpectedly sprung up, which was quite refreshing, after experienc ing for nine davs and nights in succession a ve ry” heated atmosphere. At the Museum, the Thermometer at 8 A. M. stood at 82, and at 2 P. M. at 85 degrees. However, the houses and pavements are so thoroughly charged with heat, that nothing short of a good rain will speedily cool them. An 80 feet Magnolia.—Those who are fond of flowers are advised to read the following ar ticle from Mobile, published in the New York Journal of Commerce: This is the land ol flowers, and moonlight evenings, and soft south ern breezes. Here we have flowersin in every variety, from thedittle picaroon rose to the lofty and most magnificent magnolia. The magno lia is an evergreen, rising to the height of SO feet, and often much more. The leaves are the deepest green, and so full that the branches are scarcely to be seen. Its blossom is of pure white, five or six inches in diameter, and of delicious fragrance. This magnificent tree grows in great abundance in the woods adjoining Mobile, together with the titi. the cucumber tree, which is a species of magnolia, bearing still larger flowers, the accacia, and many others.” Bonny Doon.—The history of the air to which the Banks o' Doon” was composed, is uncom mon. It happened that James Miller, a writer in Edinburg, was in company with Stephen Clarke the musician; the conversation turned upon the beauty of the Scottish airs, when Mil ler declared he would like much to make one. Clark* in a jocular way told him that nothing was more easy: he had only to keep to the black keys of the harpsichord, preserve some kind of rhym, and the result would be a true Scottish air. What the musician meant for a joke, Miller took seriously. To the harpsichord he went, applied his fingers with such success to the black keys, that* he speedily produced his tune, which, on receiving two or three touches from Clarke, was given to the world, an I with such applause,that Burns remodclN 1 his ‘-Banks and braes o’ bonny Doon,”and adapted it to the airf somewhat at the expense of its simplicity. Queen Elizabeth.—h\ her evasive answers to the Commons, in reply to their petitions to her Majesty to marry, she has employed an ener getic word. Were I to tell you that i did not mean to marry, I might say less than 1 did in tend; and were i to tell you that I do mean to marry, I might say more than it is proper for you to know; therefore 1 give you an answer, Anmcerles*!”—If'Israeli.

DIED, In Georgetown, on the 6th instant, MaAy P. Morton, of this District, after a protracted and distressing illness. COMMERCIAL. Baltimore Patriot Office, i Tuesday, 1 o’clock, P. M. The Market.—The experiment,” harvest, and the hot weather,"combined, have caused an almost entire suspension of all kinds of business. What few sales have been effected, are to a li mited extent. The Coffee and Sugar markets are inactive; Rio is selling at 12 1-4 to 12 l-2cts; Laguira 12c; St. Domingo is held at 10 1-2 to 11 cents. New Orleans Sugar, limited sales at 6 3-4 to 87; prime St. Croix at 89 to 89 1-2. We liave not heard of any transactions in Indigo or Spices. Salt is plenty and dull. Western pro duce is firm at last week’s prices. 100 hhds. Guadaloupe Molasses, sold by R. Lemmon Co. this day, at 26 a 27 cents. Flour.—The price of Flour from wagons and stores is very fluctuating, the receipts having become irregular—we quote the price from wa gons at 85 a $5 12 1-2, in some cases a fraction more. Sales from stores 5 25. Some inciden tal sales at 5 37 1-2. The stock does not in crease. Grain.—Wheat—The transactions in this ar ticle being of no moment we cannot venture a quotation. Rye, 70 a 71c.—Corn, white, 65; yellow 66c. The amount in market small. Oats 35 1-2 a 36—very scarce. Whiskey.—The price from wagons 23 cents. Sales fropi stores at 27c. BOSTON MARKET—July 5. i Flour.—There were the usual transactions J for consumption, in the early part of the week, at prices corresponding to our last quotations, but this mornihg the market for Genesee be came more firm in consequence of a reported advance on the article in New-York, and sales were more readily made at former rates. The advices this afternoon seemed to be less flatter ing than holders had anticipated, and the mar ket we consider closes without any change on our last quotations. Grain.—The cargoes which have arrived since our last review have been taken at 72 a 73 cts. for Southern round Corn; 70 a 70 1-2 for white, and 71 for yellow flat. Should there be heavy arrivals the market would not probably sustain these prices, as the dealers are not dis posed to increase their stocks much beyond the immediate retail demand. Oats have gone off with more animation, at 40 a 41c. for North ri ver, and 35 cents for southern. No change of consequence in Rye, stock small.—Courier. SHIP NEWS. POUT OF ALEXANDRIA. 1). C.

The situation possesses many advantages,—located five miles west of Winchester, in a healthy and agreeable neighborhood, remote from any wa ter course. The properly has undergone a tho rough repair; nearly all the buildings are new, and sufficient room to accommodate about 76 persons. The water is highly medicinal, hav ing stood the test for 25 or 30 years. Many re spectablc certificates could be procured, were it necessary, to prove the value of this water. In dyspepsia, diarrhea, affections of tlie liver, cu taneous affections, suppressed perspiration, de bility, and many other diseases to which the hu man system is subject, this water, upon a fair trial, I hope, will not be less efficacious than any sulphur water whatever. The accommodatiOnf shall be equal to any other watering place; the most trusty servants provided, and our table shall be furnished with the best our markets af ford.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,) Prepared by C. HERSTOSS, near Frederick-, town, Maryland. Kicuxoso. Va- July 15, 18J0. THE public will be pleased to understand that 1 was the original discoverer of Judkins' Ointment, and •ole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817, until the expiration of the samei out, having connect-' ed myself with Ur. Judkins in the commencement, I permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term of the patent having expired on the 26tli June, 1 have made an improvement in the same, and taken oat a pa-11 tent thereon. N SHEPHERD (XT' Imposition having been practised upon the nub- tic by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jud- 11 kins’ Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself of the authority granted to him iu his letter* patent, now to call the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it will be known by the name of SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT MENT, (formerly Judkins'.) When 1 firat made and prepared this Ointment, and bad, in several instances, experienced its Rood effects, I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what casea to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded that the Ointment would occasionally fall into many hands, some of whom would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the proceaa—-ne vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated^ si tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi nal—-and in this way ita good effecti would be oblitera ted Under theae consideration*, I aecured the origi nal and certain remedv for those obstinate diseases, tome of which have so long b&fflei the skill of me dical science: 1st white swes'ings or every uejcripuun, i 2d Sore lew and ulcers of long standing,. 3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose j hardened tumors in wurn-rn’s bveasts, which oftentimes i terminate in ulceiated cancers; 4th Felons; or what some people know by the name of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains ofthe joints; 6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or to whatever part situate; 7th Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint the pa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part out of water; 8th Chilblains or partsaffected bv frost. It is also one of the best remedies for burns and scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a short time. For inflamed women's breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the in dical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap plications, (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 Ointment has cured sores of msny years stand ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal the external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming carious oi rotten, it will atop the progress of the.caries, incret.se the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the paina. It caret the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica tion of forty-eight hours CERTIFICATES. From the [Jm. John Cocke, Member of the House uf Re presentatives in Congress. Wash■ kotow, Mari h 22. 1826 Sir -My son having been afflicted for five years with white swelling, and having applied every reme dy recommended bv the most eminent physicians within mv rpaeh without success, I at length procured one jug of Ur 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 perf-ct cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health ever since. I have no doubt that tothe Ointment alone he is indebted* for nothing else was used for more than nine months before the application of the Oint ment.

Mr. C Hcrstons—l deem it proper to state, for the benefit of the public, that, several years since, two of my children were affected with scald head of an inve terate character. My family physician, I)r John T. Wilson, of l.eesburg, Va who was very skilful and ju dicious in his practice, in vain endeavored by every means to effect a cure. At length Judkins’ Ointment was applied, and the affection was peimanently reliev ed. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, L. I*. W. LUi.ru From the Honorable John 'l’aliaferro, Member of Con gress, dated w ajum*ot9 Janaa> v 21, 1829. Si*—It has been my wish, fora considerable time, to communicate to you the good effect with which 1 have used the Oinfment invented by a Mr. Judkins, and which I now understand is made and sold by agents appointed by yourself, I have applied this Ointment during the last three years to every species of tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure in every instance.

SAM. II. P LEE. Baltimorx, August, I8JB. Doctor S. II. P. I.EE. New London. Conn. Dun Sin—It is now upwards of twenty yean that I have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al most every description of disease, and believe they sa* ved many a long doctor's bill by their early and timely use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past; and having; since then, been sadly disappointed in eve ry instance of using them, I began tc conclude that you had made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your WHITTEN 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 respoct Finding those 1 had without this teat, 1 be fan to suspect that all was not fair in medicine, as well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe :ariee for your pills, with your written signature. I ound many without this teat, but noue with it, until I :ame to the Messrs Kcerls’, who aasured me they bad hero direct from you. I procured a box, and on using hem, found the aame effects from them I had always Experienced, and am to much rejoiced on finding my le'fin possession oF a medicine t so highly prize, that th»t cannot, in justice, refrain from gitm j you this information. OCT To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the bill of directions trv-ring each box, and if signed at fbot. in my own handwriting, im mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, and prepared by me; but if omvx the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided. g. H. P- LKE, New London, Conn. Dec. 1823. HTGEI A.NISM. I THE following testimonials of the 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:— Bbowr Universitt, Dec. 25, 1813. To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege- i table Univ^raal Medicines, for the State of Rhode Island. Sib—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men c, n pels me, in compliance with your request, 'o giv a brief statement of a cure, which, I think, recetv-d from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity t" the same the more cheerfully, because thereby, p -'haps, l 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 may be explicitly tin er stood, I state, in connexion with the relation ut the cure, some of the symptoms of the disease In 8» p tember, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled -n my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my I cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be fore in usual health, 1 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 he attribut ed. I spat blood, occasionally, for four dais; 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 di.s ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But rel'pse upon relapse, and each bringing me lower than the preceding, seemed to bhffle all human skill, and warn me of an approaching dissolution. Thus, months after the first attack, a tubercle” [small ul cer] broke in the lungs, after which I spat blood, one •lay. I continued to decline twomonths longer, when I obtained the Hygeian Medicines I had now been unable to sit up a whole duy, for four months and a half. My feet were cold and lifele»s 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, fisc. Ike. Stic!) 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- Jn about ten days, my appetite became good, and fo >d produced no distress, sleep 9oon became sound and refreshing, and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease had nearly all disappeared I took the medicine sixtv days regularly every night, averaging about ten pills It a dose; the greatest num ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I took about four doses a week, until 1 had taken about thirteen hundred pill-*, when 1 found my9elf restored to health. After I 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 I lit If rto I have been convalescent; and it my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I liave less pains, and atn more free from temporary sickness, than at any time since my earliest recollec tion. Yours, with respect, HORACE T. LOVE. On H Sim hkabd Moat. Dear Sir—I wish to state tliat my sister, after severe suffering, ami employing a medical man tlirec 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 own expression, her .is on one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain was a violent burning p tin, almost intolerable; so see vere, that she could not ait up for upwards of three years- It was occasioned by over-lacing here o If, and perhaps, over exertion with it. After using few, dose* of No. 1 and 2, alternately, about eight pit's for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is nnw restored to health; sod i have no objection to this CK*e being made public for tbe benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours trulv, II. DYER. Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb 8, 1834 In justice to Dr. M. h<*r medical adviser, when he heard her improvement in heulth, he recommended perseverenee m 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 live 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 perfottiling a cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the pain-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 s’reogtli, and without the Icar of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way diff erent from their accustoim d habits. Those pills cure all cases, and cannot betaken 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, beca ise they clear the body of its bad humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious menicine to take to seM; preventing scurvy, cosliveness, he, The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as distance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst.
