Bernard’s Renovating Liquid, for extracting all kinds 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 delicate Silks—nor is it like the soaps so commonly advertised in onr 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. $3* The subscriber has appointed William Stabler, Druggist, Alexandria, his Agent for selling the above article.

All advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. VERY LATE FROM ENGLAND. The packet ship Philadelphia, Captain Mor gan, has arrived from London. By this arrival we have copious files of London papers to the evening of the fifth of June inclusive. New York Com. The Irish Chohch Establishment. At the date of our last advices, Parliament j had adjourned for a brief period, pending the motion of Mr. Ward, in the Commons, to is-\ sue a Commission of Inquiry into the ecclesias tical state of Ireland. Upon the propriety of this inquiry, as connected with the constitution al right of the government to interfere with the revenues of the Church Establishment, a differ ence of opinion existed in the Cabinet, which 1 led to a partial re organization, by the retire-! ment of those who were in opposition to the j proposed measure. The changes referred to j have already been announced. The debate was renewed on the 2d of June; but, in the mean time, the Ministers anticipated, in a great measure, the motion of Mr. Ward, by issuing a Commission of the most important and com prehensive nature. On opening the debate on the 2d, Lord Al- thorp went into an explanation of the embar- i rassments which had previously existed in the administration, by the difference of opinion j among the Ministry, already adverted to, and j which at the time rendered it difficult for them to'meet the question. The adjournment of the debate was, therefore, a necessary measure; j and the subsequent reorganization of the admi- j nistration had relieved them from their embar- j rassment. His Lordship thereupon informed j the House that a lay commision had been is- i sued, the object of which was most distinctly j to authorise and direct such information to be I obtained as will lead tb a fair distribution of Church property in Ireland. The commission ers are directed to report accurate information, 1 'essentially requisite, in the instance, on which to found the necessary legislative enact ments, respecting the number of persons of dif ferent religious denominations in each parish in Ireland, the number attending divine worship in each parish, the number and denomination of the places of worship, the number of clergymen officiating in the different places of worship, &c. Under t!.ese circumstances, the ministers op posed trie n.o^on of Mr. W’ard, although, by the measure of the commission, they had fully pledged themselves to the reformation of the Church Establishment in Ireland. The debate, which was long and animated, was finally cut off by a call for the previous question: the vote upon which stood—— For the Previous Question 396 Against it 120 Majority against Mr.Ward’s motion —270 The following is an authentic abstract of the Commission, whichisunder the Royal Seal, and directed to the Lord Chancellor and Viscount Melbourne, and competent barristers. It recites— The expediency ot an inquiry into tne state of religious and other instruction, and the means of affording the same, now existing in Ireland; it will authorize and appoint the commissioners, any two or more of them, to visit every parish in Ireland, and to ascertain on the spot, by the best evidence which they can procure, there or elsewhere, the number of members of, or per sons in communion with, the United Church of England and Ireland, in each benefice or pa rish, distinguishing, in the case of such bene fices as comprise more than one parish, the number belonging to each parish separately, and to the union collectively; and also to state the distances of the parishes in each union from each other respectively: to state the number and rank of the ministers belonging to or offi ciating within each benefice, whether Rector, Vicar or Curate, and whether resident or non resident: to state the periods at which divine service is performed in each parish church or chapel, and the average number of persons usu ally attending the service in each: and to state generally whether those members have been for the last five years increasing, stationary, or di minishing: to ascertain the number of the seve ral other places of worship belonging to Ho man Catholics or Presbyterians, or other Pro testant Dissenters, and the number of ministers officiating in each: the proportion of the popu lation of each parish, belonging to each of such persuasions respectively: the periods at which divine service is performed in each of their cha pels, and the average number of persons usu ally attending the service in each: and to state generally whether those numbers have been, for the last five years, increasing, stationary, or di minishing. To ascertain the state of each parish with reference to the means of Education, the num ber and description of schools, the kind of in struction afforded therein, tlie average attend ance at each, and the sources from which they are supported; and to state generally whether the members attending the same have, for the last five years, been increasing, stationary, or diminishing. To inquire generally whether adequate pro vision is now made for the religious instruction and for the general education of the people of Ireland. To report such other circumstances connected with the moral and political relations of the Church Establishment, and the religious institutions of sects, as may bring clearly into w their bearings on the general condition of the people of Ireland.” The commission will contain the usual pow ers to summon persons, to secure the produc tion of evidence, and administer oaths; to in spect and copy all deeds, records, and papers, of all cathedrals, advowsons. and ecclesiastical institutions. It will be aided by a secretary and four clerks. Thus has Mr. Ward as effectually triumphed in the result, as though he had carried his mo tion. He is the member of St. Albans, and the only son of Robert Plumer Ward, Esq., author of Tremain” and w De Vere.” He was form erly a Lord of the Admirality, Clerk of the Or dnance, and Auditor of the Civil List; he was sent as Minister Plenipotentiary to acknowledge the Mexican Republic, and has published an account of his travels in Mexico; which is known in this country. He is a moderate Re former. T Dr. Bowring had arrived at London Tram Paris. He is the bearer of the ordonnances of the French Government by which the prohib tion of several articles of British export is re moved, such as cotton twist, lace, iron cables, Russian hides, rum, &c. The prohibtion is al so taken away from the export of raw silk, skins. &c. and the reduction ofthe tonnage du ties on British ships 3 75 to 1 franc. General Macdonnell, the late commander m Chiefat Santarem, has arrived in London. The two hundred and sixty unfortunate Poles who embarked from Harwich on board a Bri tish vessel, and were escorted by the Meleagre French corvette, arrived safe at Oran, but they were not permitted to land, the authorities not having received any orders from the French government. v Gen. O’Donnell (Count de l’Abisbal,) who was on his way to Spain, died at Monpelier on the 17th May. dueen Adelaide, of England, was to visit Germany in the early part of July. Death of Dn. Doyle.—The Right Rev. Dr. Doyle, Roman Catholic Bishop, died at Carlow, in Ireland, on the 30th of May. He had been formerly in the University of Coimbra, in Por tugal, from whence he was transferred to the Professorship of Theology in the College of Carlow, and, in the year 1819, was appointed Bishop of the Catholic diocese of Kildare and Leighlin, being then the youngest man who had ever obtained a similar rank in the Irish Catho lic church. His title was James, Kildare and j Keighlin.” In the House of Commons on the 4th of June, a new writ was moved for Cambridge in the i room of the Right Hon. Thomas Spring Rice, now Chief Secretary for the Colonies. Mr. Buckingham’s mofion for a committee of inquiry into the increaseofdrunkennessthrough out the country was opposed by Lord Althorp, on the ground that the subject was not one for legislative interference. The numbers on the division were 64 for the committee, and S4 against it. In answer to a question from Lord Dudley Stuart, the Chancellor of the Exchequer said government had no objection to voting some provision for the support of the distressed Po j lish exiles at present in this country—an an nouncement which was hailed with general cheer ing throughout the house. j Sir John Campbell, the Attorney General, has been elected to Parliament for Edinburg, and is spoken of as a gentleman altogether worthy to succeed Mr. Jeffrey.

The Church. 7'he Lay Declaration—the Archbishop of C an terbury. London. June 4.—Yesterday a deputation of gentlemen from the central committee for the promotion and circulation of a declaration of the laity and the church of England, accompa nied by Colonel Clitherow, T. G. Bucknall Estcourt, Esq., M. P. for the University of Ox rord, H. Joshua King, E iq Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambiijge. thff Chairman, and R. W. S. Lutwidge, Esq., and John Pear son, Esq., honorary secretaries of the commit tee, waited upon iiis Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, at his Palace at Lambeth with'an address, requesting permission t deposit in his Grace’s hands th«? original signatures to the dec laration. Colonel Clitherow, after stating the facts connected with the declaration, to whioh the signatures of upwards of 230,000 laymen had been affixed, informed his Grace that an address, embodying the declaration, had alrea dy been laid at the foot of the throne, of which he begged to present him with a copy. Col. Clitherow then, after a few prelimary ob servations, read the address, which was to the following effect:— “To the Most Rev. William, by Divine Provi dence, Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Pri mate of England, and Metropolitan. “We, the undersigned, having been graciously permitted to lay at the foot of the throne our ex pression of the devoted attachment of the laity of the Church of England to her pure faith and worship, and her apostolic form of government, confirmed by the signatures of upwards of 230, 000 male persons of mature age, are desirous to approach your Grace with our congratulations on this unparalleled demonstration of affection to the National Church, affording as it does the strongest evidence that the laity of the Church 'of England feel in her maintenance an interest no less real and no less direct than her immedi ate ministers. “In craving permission of your Grace to de posite the proofs of this feeling nmong the ar chives of Lambeth, to be there preserved with the other evidence of attachment to the church on the partof the clergy and laity already in your Grace’s hands, we gladly avail ourselves of the present occasion to assure your Grace of our I hearty concurrence in those sentiments of vene ration and affection lor your Grace’s person and office, which have emanated from so many quarters, and which we feel assured are enter tained by every friend of the National Church. That your Grace may long be preserved, by the blessing of Divine Providence,to that Church of which you are so distinguished a support and ornament, and may enjoy every earthly happi ness, is the fervent prayer of your Grace’s duti ful servants.” To this address his Grace was pleased to re turn the following answer:— “Gentlemen—I receive your assurances of respect and kindness towards me, and of vene ration for the office in which it hath pleased the Almighty to place me, with more than ordinary satisfaction; and I request you to accept my grateful acknowledgments of your zeal in the cause of the established church, at a time when, in England and Ireland, and all our colonial possessions, it stands so much in need of de fence against the machinations ofenemies avow edly intent on its destruction. Amidst perils which are multiplying around us, the clergy will derive the greatest encour agement to persevering exertion from these public professions of your devoted adherence to the church, and your implied approbation of the character and conduct of its ministers. While such are the sentiments of the wisest and best among our fellow-countrymen, we may look for ward with hope, and whatever may be the event of the hostility with which we are threatened, we shall find consolation in their sympathy, and in the conscientiousness of not being altogether unworthy of it With great pleasure I take on me the custo dy of these important documents. They will be deposited among the archives of Lambeth, and will there be preserved as authentic memorials 1 of your filial reverence for the national church, your attachment to her polity, her faith, and her formularies, and your deep sense of the bless* ings. which, through the mercy of God, in our Lord Jesus Christ, are diffused, by her agency, through the whole of our social system.” The following is the address to the throne above referred to:— To the King's Most Excellent Majesty. We, your Majesty’s dutiful subjects, beg leave humbly to approach your Majesty, with the profoundest feeling of affection and loyalty towards your Majsty’s sacred person and throne, and, as lay members of the Church of England, to offer to your Majesty the expression of our firm attachment to her pure faith and worship, and her apostolic form of government. We further find ourselves called upon by the events which are daily passing around us to de clare our firm conviction that the consecration of the state, by the public maintenance of the Chris tian religion, is the first and paramount duty of a Christian King and people, and that the church establishment in these realms, by carrying its sacred and beneficial influences throughout all orders and degrees, and into every corner of the land, has for many ages been the great and j distinguishing blessing of this country, and not i less the means, under Divine Providence, of na tional prosperity than of individual piety. In the preservation, therefore, of this our na tional church, in the integrity of her rights and privileges, and in her alliance with the state, we feel we have an interest must direct and real, and we accordingly avow our firm determina tion to do all that in us lies, in our several sta tions, to uphold unimpaired in its security and efficiency that establishment which we have re ceived as the richest legacy of our forefathers, and desire to hand down, as the best inheritance of our posterity. We avow these sentiments with the greater confidence, from a conviction that they are wide ly and deeply rooted in the hearts of your Ma jesty’s subjects—a conviction confirmed by the fact, that, independently of many other unques tionable demonstrations, the same declaration which we now humbly make has been most ex tensively adopted throughout England and Wales, having already received actual signa tures of upwards of 230,000 of your Majesty’s lay subjects, for the most part substantial house holders and heads of families, and all of them persons of mature age. “That your Majesty may long continue to watch over and protect that church, of which your Majesty and your royal predecessors have so long been the nursing fathers, is the earnest prayer of your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects,” &c. The Commons' Address to Lari Grey. My Lord,—We have heard with deep con cern that the change which has taken place in the administration might possibly lead your Lordship to contemplate retirement from office. Impressed with the firmest conviction that the country is indebted to you for the success of measures, the most essential to the public wel fare, and assured that your resignation at this crisis would produce consequences most injuri ous to the peace and prosperity of the commu nity, we venture to express to your lordship our undiminished confidence in the wisdom with which you have held the reins of government, and our unshaken attachment to those princi ples which you have so efficiently and con sistently maintained. We desire, therefore, to convey to you our anxious hope that you will not be induced to retire from his Majesty coun cils, while you can continue to preside over them, as you have hitherto done, with so much honor to yourself and so much benefit to the country. Earl Grey's Heply. Dear Lord Ebrington: I received yesterday evening your very kind note, accompanying the letter, which had been written under the im pression that I had determined to retire from the situation which I now hold. Whether I regard the expressions contained in the letter itself, or the number and respecta bility of tire signatures, I cannot help feeling this to be one of the most gratifying testimoni als of confidence and good opionion ever re ccived by any public man. It imposes on me the duty of making every personal sacrifice that can be required of me, and w’hich can be useful for the support of the principles on which the present Administration was formed. But I will not conceal from you, that declining strength makes it extremely doubtful whether I shall be found equal to the task which is thus imposed upon me. If my endeavors to supply the places ofthos o'f whose services the country has been so unfor tunately deprived prove successful, it is only by the support of honorable and independent men, j in conducting the government on safe and mo- j derate principles, that 1 can hope to get through j the difficulties which are before me. Founded on the principles of Reform, the present Administration must necessarily look to the correction of all proved abuses. But in pursuing a course of salutary improvement, I feel it indispensable that we shall be allowed to proceed with deliberation and caution; and a bove all, that we should not be urged by a con stant and active pressur- from without, to the adoption of any measure!-, the necessity of which has not been fully proved, and which are not strictly regulated by a careful attention to the settled institutions of the country, both in Church and State. On no other principle can this or any other Administration be conducted with safety or ad vantage. I 9m, &c. Grey. From the London Globe of June 5. The Weather and the Harvest.—We never recollect a time when, at this season of the year, the country was so much in want of rain, and unless it should come soon, we believe some of the oats and barley will be entirely dried up; they have now more the appearance of stubble than a growing crop in June. We observe the wheat very much altered for the worse lately in many situations, but on the whole perhaps that looks better than might be expected. The grass is very short everywhere, but a few stacks of hay have been got together in excellent con dition, and where the seeds have been cut, the swath is very small indeed. The sheep in the weald are shorn, and come out of the w’ool well, but few of the flocks are yet shorn; though the grass is so short, beast, generally speaking, are doing well.—Brighton Gazette. The dry weather, with frosty mornings, is al ready affecting the crops. In many places wheat has lost its luxuriant look, and the oats have ceased to make perceptible progress. Grass for hay, though pretty thick, is ripening at no length. In Haddington and other markets, the prices of wheat and oats have-considerably ad vanced; and unless there be copious rains soon, there is too much reason to apprenend such a deficiency in the crop as will raise prices to such a rate as will admit the importation of fo reign corn Glasgow Chronicle. London, June 5—City Txrelcc o'clock.—The Money Market is altogether flatter this morning, and the prices of most securities have declined. Consols were at 93 to 1-8 for the opening, but have now fallen to 92 3-4 to 7-8. Exchequer Bills are 49s to 50s premium. Half-past One.—The death of Earl Spen cer has been anounced, and although it has not been traced to any authentic source, and is in deed untrue, as implying the removal of Lord Ahhorp from his present office, it has tended to depress the price of government securities. SPAIN. The intelligence from Spain is of no later date than that received by the Moro Castle yes terday. We have selected some articles ot in terest for our next paper. The Portcopese Amnesty. Desiring to give an irrefragible testimony of clemency, and of the sentiments of love and in dulgence with which my heart is constantly fill ed on behalf of the Portuguese who, deluded or misled by error, by interested passions, or by extraordinary circumstances, have adhered to the usurpation until the moment of its final downfall; and being resolved on this great act at the very moment of the most signal victories, impelled thereto solely by my ardent desire to ral ly around the throne of my august daughter all minds, all wills, and all hearts, with an entire oblivion of past crimes and opinions; and hav ing heard the Council of State, I have thought fit, in the name of the same august Senhora, to declare as follow:— Article I. A general.amnesty for all political offences committed since the 31st of July, 1826; is granted to all persons who may submit, or shall offer to submit, to the Government of her Most Faithful Majesty within forty-eight hours after the promulgation of this decree in the chief places of the districts, (Cabecas de Con-! celhos.) by presenting themselves to the local authorities, from whom they will receive safe conducts, such persons not having been pre viously obliged to submit by force of arms. Those who do not avail themselves of this am nesty remain subject to the rigor of the laws. Sec. 1. The execution of the decree of the 31st of Aug. 1833, is suspended with respect to the persons comprehended in the amnesty, un til the Cortes shall deliberate on their case. Sec. 2. They shall have possession of their property, but not power to alienate the same un til the decis on of the Cortes. Sec. 3. The amnesty does not include restitU: tion of ecclesiastical, political, and civil officers, nor of crown property, nor of orders, comman deries, and pensions; neither does it extend to offences against individuals, nor exempt from responsibility to the prejudice of third parties. Art. II. The military officers comprehended in the amnesty, who shall, within the period pre scribed in article I., swear fidelity to the Queen’s government, shall retain their com missions legal ly conferred,and the government will provide for their subsistence in proportion to their rank. The Ministers and Secretaries of State of all the departments are to hold this decree to be understood, and cause the same to be executed.

S=======9B9 By an arrival at New Orleans, letters to the llth June have been received from Mexico. The country is said to be in a state of complete revolution, and a worse one never has distract ed that unfortunate country. The letter from i Mexico, states: We may have quietness for a while, a coun ter-action must take place, which will destroy trade, confidence, and even perronal security for some time to come. My candid opinion is that, in our time, in this country, we have not virtue and Amor Patria enough for Republican Institutions. We will see what will be the re sult of the present disturbances. We got a con voy off for Vera Cruz, though we fear much for its safety.” The letter from Tampico states the triumph 1 of Santa Anna, who receives his support and means from the Priests and Aristocracy. Pru.’ble was attacked by the Government troops; the result was unknown—the defence being very obstinate. A convoy with S300,000 i is on its way to Vera Cruz, and a much larger and general one was to leave at the end of the month. We are perfectly quiet at present. All the states are turning in favor of Santa Anna. Latent from Smyrna.—Dy the brig Padang, Capt. Williams, arrived at this port yesterday from Smyrna, we have received papers from that place to the 3d of May. Active preparations were making for the sub jection of the island of Samos to the power of the Grand Seignior, which was, indeed spoken of as already virtually accomplished. The is land was to be immediately blockaded, and troops were on their march to cut off any retreat which the inhabitants might attempt to make. Smyrna, April 25 —A Tartar arrived here two days since from Constantinople, with an order for the governor of Smyrna to dispatch a por tion of the troops from the garrison, and a com pany of artillery with field pieces, for Boghas, a place opposite the island of Samos. The or der has been executed, and the troops conupen ced their march this morning. The principal object of this expedition appears to be to pre vent the Samiens from landing on that part of the coast, in case they should attempt it, before the blockade should be established. The Sa miens ought to see that the Porte is determined to subdue them, and it is desirable that they should renounce the idea of resistance, and ac cept the advantageous terms offered them by the government of the Grand Seignior. May 3.—A band of men from 60 to 80 in num- j ber, said to be from Samos, landed on Sunday last near Ohesme, and committed numerous ex- j cesses, robbed and ill treated a number of trav- oilers, among others an Armenian, from whom they took 4500 piasters. An armed force was immediately sent against them, and they suc ceeding in capturing a few, but most of them made their escape. There were rumors of some cases of the plague having occurred in the island of Scio, which caused considerable alarm, but the Smyr na Journal of the 3d May doubts the correctness of the reports.—Boston Gaz. Thomas C. Powell, keeper of the Eagle Ho tel in this city, and late of Petersburg, abscon ded a few days ago, having forged, as we learn, the signature of his father Mr. Edwin Powell, of his brother Mr. Wilson Powell, and of Messrs. W'illiam R. Johnson and Peterson Goodwin, to negotiable notes, which he got shaved in this city. The loss will probably fall on gentlemen very capable of sustaining injuries of the same sort. We hear of the arrest of another individual charged with similSr offences.—Comp. The Fredericksburg Arena has made its ap pearance in an enlarged and improved form. For talent, intelligence and urbanity, the Arena has few equals, and we hail with pleasure this evidence of the appreciation of its merits by the public. May it continue to receive the sup port which it so eminently deserves! Norfolk Her. Accident.—Between three end four c/ciot* yesterday afternoon, the wall and roof of tuo brick tenements on 12th street, fronting the ha sin, fell in, burying under them several indn duals who were in them at the time of this un fortunate occurrence. The crowd have sue ceeded in extricating all save one person; who haa not yet been seen. Those who escaped were but little injured. One of the two tene ments which have fallen in, was occupied as a grocery by Mr. Tinsley Johnson; the other was used as a warehouse. We fear the loss of Mr Johnson will be very considerable. The pro perty in the other tenement consisted chiefly 0f tobacco packed in boxes, which will be but lit tle, if at all, injured; and a large quantity of flour, (several hundred barrels) much of which we fear, has been unavoidably destroyed in hurried removal. The houses are entirely fo. stroyed. And the front wall of another tene ment adjoining them, on the side nearest Cary street, has also fallen. This, and the house ad joining on the other side the two that have given way, will probably require to be rebuilt.0 \ve learn the accident was immediately produced by an attempt to Jet down the lower floor to n level w’ith the street, which had been recent:v cut down. Nine P. M.—The body of the npgro youth Samuel Tinsley, has just been found, dead. lie was heard to speak some time after the falling of the building by a person who informs us that he asked him if there was any chance for Ins escape. A short time afterwards, though called,he did not answer. His father did not hear him. He wa> in the first story, from which several escape unhurt.—Richmond Compiler. Satal—The U. S. Ship St. Louis.

Norfolk Beacon. We understand that the Bank of the United States extended its discounts yesterday about two hundred thousand dollars.— Phil. Inq. We have heard rumors of an intention on the part of the prominent New York amalpa I mationists to remove to this city. We hope not. They have no right to afflict this city with the troubles which they have brought upon New York; and we assure them that any calculation on the forbearance of our people, will piobably prove fallacious. True, we have abolitionists i in this city, but they have hitherto conducted themselves as good citizens. We want no Cox's or Tappan’s to utter blasphemy from our pul pits, pervert our temples into schools of amal gamation, and fill our streets with violence ami outrage.—Phil. Com. Herald. A Hint.—The publishers of the Norfolk Bra con give notice, that a persen in their employ ment has absconded, and remains absent. Thr\ therefore caution the delinquent to return, r they will be compelled to advertise him as a run away. This is something like a remark of the Rev. John Morehead, many years since pn>tnr of the Federal Street Church, in Boston. Tin* rev. gentleman missed, in the course of t! week, a quantity of wood from his premise# He couM not identify the abductor, and there fore he hit on the following expedient: On Sun day afternoon, in the midst of the service, ju-t as he was about to read the concluding hymn, hr paused, and raised his eye to the gallery, an with great naivete remarked, “the man that stole my wood last Thursday, will come down from the gallery into the middle aisle, or 1 will call out his name in this full meeting.” It is scarcely necessary to say, that after the offer of such an alternative, the thief came down as di rected U. S. Gaz. Stabbing.—A man named Thomas Davi«, who was rapidly wasting a fortune of about 810,000, which be drew in a lottery, went into a house in Chapel street, near Duane, and giving offence to a woman there, she stabbed hiiu with a shoe knife in the back so severely that his life was despaired ot.—Xew York Daily Adr. Another Hou>.—About 10 o’clock last night, about one hundred persons assembled near Mr. O’Neal’s, in Orange street, between Leonard and Franklin, and commenced a riot. As soon as the news was received, Alderman Ferris, with Messrs. Dunshee, Lavin, and others, offi ers, with about twenty of the watch, proceeded to the place, and soon dispersed the mob, four of whom were cuptured and sent to the watch house.—Ibid. The Rev. Peter Williams, of the African Epis copal Church, of St. Philips, by the advice of the Right Rev. Bishop Onderdonk, has, in a letter, distinguished for its sincerity, formally separated himself from the abolition Society. We are glad to learn, that his church has re ceived but little damage, and that the valuable organ in it was not at all injured.—X Y. Mcr.

A branch of blossoms has thus been produced two or three feet long, and composed of some hundreds of large flow ers, resplendent with scarlet and yellow.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,) Prepared by C. HE h STUNS, near Frederick town, Maryland. Kicimoh, Va- July 15, 1830. HpHE public will be pleased to understand that 1 was JL the origins! discoverer of Judkins' Ointment, and •ole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817, until the expiration of the same; but, having connect ed myself with pr. Judkins in the commencement, I permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term of the patent having expired on the 26th June, 1 have made an improvement in the same, and taken oat a pa tent thereon. N. SHEPHERD. xy imposition having been practised upon the nub lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jud kins’ ointment," the proprietor avails himself of the authority granted to U>m in his letter* patent, now to call the Ointment after hi* own name. Henceforth it will be known by the same of SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT MENT, (formerly Judkins'.) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced it* (food effects, I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded that the Ointment would occasionally fall into many hands, some of whom would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process—ne vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si tuation, as it might in tome degree resemble the origi nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera ted Under these considerations, I secured the origi nal and certain remedy for thosfe obstinate.diseases, some of which have so long baffleJ the skill of me dical science: 1st White swellings of every description} 2d Sore leg* and ulcers of long standing, 3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose hardened tumors in women’s breasts, which oftentimes terminate in ulcetated cancers; 4th Felons; or what some people know by thename of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains ofthe joints; j 6th Sprains and bruises ofevery description, or in whatever part situate; 7th Tetters of allkinds. In this complaint the pa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part outofwater; I 8th Chilblains or partsaffected by frost. It is also one of the best remedies for bums and scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a short time. For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swcl q lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the m.-dical faculty. It is mucli safer than mercurial ap 1 plication?, (m it tlocs not contain th“ gtnallcst atom ot any preparation of the miners1,) because it doe9 not lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold, j Tins Oimment has cured sores of many years stand l ing.

Sir My son having been afflicted for fi#ve years with white swelling, and having applied every reme dy recommended by tiie most eminent physicians i jvit'ti:i mv reach without success, I at length procured one jog 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, tint before one jug was used, a perfect cure -.vasefTtCied. My son has enjoyed good health ever since. 1 have no doubt that to the Ointment alone he is inJebtedi (or nottiing else was used for more i than nin» mon'hs before tnc application of the Dint I ment.

From the Honorable John Taliaferro, Member of Con gress. dated vv AsaiNOTu*,January 22,1829. Sib—Ithasbeenmy wish, fora considerable time, to communicate to you the good effect with which I j have used the Ointment invented by a Mr. Judkins,! and which 1 wow 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 decidtdand efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause j wbatit mayj and I 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- 1 tation, prove fatalto the patient, was, under my inime- i diale notice, effected bythe use of Judkina’Ointment, I and the patient is in fine health. His limb affected by 1 the tumor being restored to a perfect state of sound* j ness. Also that the leg of an aged man which had been wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur- j face from the knee to the foot, and which, for more than two years, bad 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 ofthis remedy incases of tumor and ofulcersi J itaveexpe ienced, as decidedly, the good effect ofthis remedy in the cure of Felons, and of every species of fresh wound. It seems to me that any one who wll observe on the operation of this Oiut- ment, must be satisfied as to its beneficial effect I can with the utmost confidence recommend the use ofthis valuable remedy, lam, sir, very respectfully, Jobs I'aliafeuro.

SAM. H. P LEE. Baltimohk, August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. Lit, New London, Conn. Dim Sib—It is now upwards of twenty years that I have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami ly, and always found them an efficient purgative in al most every description of disease, and believe they sa ved many a long doctor*# bill by their early and timely use. 1 never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past| and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you bad made your fortune, and abandoned their muttl'ac ture to mercenary and unfaithful bands. Under (his impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other respoct. Finding those I bad without this teat, I be gan to suspect that all was not fair in medicine, as well as in politics, and called at aeverai of ouv apothe caries for your pills, with your written signature. 1 found many without this teat, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs Keerls*, who assured me they had them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using them, found! the same effects from them I had always experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my sc* fin aspoaseion of a medicine I so highly prite, th»t that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this information. gy To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the bill of directions covering each box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im- I mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, I and prepared by me; but if oilx the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided. S. H. P. LEE, New London, Conn. Dec. 1823. HTGBIANISU. THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy of the HYGEIAN IIBIMCINB9 in the cure of our diseases, speak in a language which must carry conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:— Bxowx Uxivehsitt, Dec. 25, 1833; To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege table Universal Medicines, for the State of llhode Island. Sir—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of* cure, which, I think, 1 received from the Ilygeian Medicines. 1 give publicity to the same the more cheerfully, because thereby, perhaps, I may be useful to Borne of my fellow-men, who may be afflicted with a similar disease. Mv complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may be explicitly under stood, I state, in connexion with the relation of the cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1812, I caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my »cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining my health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be fore in usual health. I found myself bleeding st 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 reltpse 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 cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one day. I continued to decline two months longer, when I obtained the llygeian 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, Stc. be. 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 spon 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 1 had taken about thirteen hundred pill*, when I found myself restored to health. After I commenced the H\g--ian, I took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I W89 able to resume my studies in college, where I have since remained without any recurrence of the disease Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and it my strength is not yet fully returned, I am certain I 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 I Jit H. Sbii'Hkabd Moat. Dear Sir—1 wish to state that my sister, after severe suffering, and employing a medical mail three years, was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines. Iter complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indeed, to use her own expression, her »s on one side hud turned in, actually deformed. The pain was a violent burning pain, almost intolerable; so see vere, that hhe could not til up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers e If, and perhaps over exertion with it. After using a few, doses of No. 1 and 2, alternately, about eight piUa for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is now restored to health; and I have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly, H. DYER. Lowell, Massachusetts, Feb. 8, 1834 In justice to l)r. VI,, her medical adviser, when he heard he; 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 live to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un der every Btage of human suffering; the most pt 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 perfotminga cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the Ivast trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing n 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 tht tear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any wsy different from their accustom; 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 hy purging; and yet the weak, the feeble, the infinn, the nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, because they clear the bodj of its bad humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, costiveness, &c. The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; arc cooling, and allay the thirst. One, two, or three powders may be taken throughout the day, mixed in Haifa wine glass of water. The genuine Medicines can be had of WM.
