DOCTOR WEDDERBURN’S STOMACHIC BITTERS WERE well proven in the Fall of 1832, when the Cholera was in the City of Richmond, and at the same time in Alexandria; the popu lation of Richmond being 12,000, and that of Alexandria 8,000. The former lost of its inha bitants by Cholera 479, and this town only 56, as officially reported in each place. The above Bitters were used freely in most of the families here, and in all the Taverns, but more particu larly at Clagett-s Hotel. The people of Rich mond had not the advantage of providing them selves with this grand preventive of Cholera, Bilious Fever, and Ague. It cannot be proved that any person has died from Cholera or Scar let Fever who used the Bitters as directed. W. WEDDERBURN, Druggist. Alexandria, Aug. 18—eo2w._ WHEAT FANS, &c. LG. H.

Holdredge, arrived at New York from Liver pool, whence she sailed on the 24th ultimo, and to which date, inclusive, Liverpool papers, with London of the 23d, have been received. The most important news from the Continent relates to the affairs of Spain, and the doubtful movements of Don Carlos. Whether he is in Spain or in England, nobody appears to know. ENGLAND. Lord Grey held office as Premier for three years, seven months; and twenty-two days; his predecessor, the Duke of Wellington, not so long by nearly a year and a half. It is understood that Mr. E. Stanley, the mem ber for Cheshire, succeeds Lord Howick as Un der-Secretary for the Home Department. Mr. Stanley does not vacate his seat in Parliament by the acceptance of that office. J It was reported on the 23d, that the Earl of Carlisle, Lord Privy Seal had resigned, and that the Earl of Mulgrave was to be his suc cessor. Great excitement had been produced in Lon don. by the infliction of 300 lashes upon the person of a soldier by the name of Hutchinson, at the St. George’s Barracks, Charing Cross. The Duke of Wellington, since his appoint ment to the office of Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, ha9 paid to the Treasury, for the public service, the whole amount of the proceeds of his office. The German papers hring us an account of a measure recently adopted in the South of Ger many, by which all foreign journals, except the Moniteur, are to be subjected to a censorship before they are allowed to be read. The Berlin State Gazette, of the 12th July, an nounces, after accounts from Meiningen. the arrival of the Queen of England at the Castle of Altenstein, near Liebenstein. The Duchess Dowager, mother of the Queen, had already taken up her residence there. The reigning Duchess, accompanied by the minister Baum bach, is gone to Oassel, and from thence will re turn to Altenstein. The presence of the Queen of England will fill the bathing place of L»e benstein this year with many illustrious visitors. The personal and political friends of Lord Grey are promoting a private subscription of £2000. to enable them to present Lady Grey with a statue of the Kite Premier, and the name of the Duke of Richmond is associated with that of the Duke of Sutherland, Lord Ebring ton, Mr. Denison, and Lord Holland, in this task of devotion to a distinguished statesman. The Duke of Buccleugh has intimated his readiness to construct, at his own expense, a deep water harbor lor Edinburgh, at Granton, on that part of the shore of the Frith of Forth belonging to his Grace, as soon as he is assured that the plan will be beneficial to the public, and that there is a reasonable prospect of a suffi cient revenue after the expense is incurred. Hoc«e of Loros, Thursday, July 17. After several petitions had been presented on a variety of subjects, the Lord Chancellor gave notice that on Monday next he would move the second reading of the Poor Laws Amendment Bill. The Religious Assemblies Bill was—after some discussion, in which Lord Suffield. the Bishop of Exeter, the Eari of Wicklow,'the Bi shop of Derry. the Lord Chancellor, and Earl Mulorove, took parts—defeated for the present, an amendment by the Bishop of Exeter, for its postponement to that day six months, having been carried in the affirmative. Lord Ellenborouch repeated his question as to whether it was the intention of Ministers to movp the third reading of the Coercion Bill? Lord Melbourne answered in the negative, but added that another bili would be immediately introduced into the House of Commons, which would not contain the three first clauses of the present bill. The Earl of Wicklow immediately rose, and with great warmth commented on the statement just made by the Noble Viscount, which he de nounced as evincing the greatest inconsistency and tergiversation, ^after the manner In which Ministers pledged themselves to the clauseswhich were now given up. Lord Wharncliffe 9poke to the same effect. The Lord Chancellor defended himself and the Government from the charges made against them, and maintained that their Lordships might as well attempt to repeal the Reform Act, or the Act of Catholic Emancipation, as pass the Coercion Bill with the three clauses, after what had taken place. An extended and animated discussion fol lowea. Friday, July 18. Lord Suffield moved the second reading of the Capital Punishment Bill, and prefaced his motion by a speech, in whi he intimated his intention of restricting the operation of the bill to the single case of returning from transporta tion, as he understood that a comprehensive measure was contemplated by the government on the general subject. The Lord Chancellor said that while the law continued as it was. he should feel himself justi fied, as a responsible adviser of the Crown, in recommending its enforcement in particular cases, though he might be favorable to a change in the law. After some further discussion, the bill was read a second tin\e. Lord Whvrncuffe then rose to make his promised motion for additional papers on the subject of the ('oercion Bill. His Lordship en tered at some length into the history of the mea sure. and dwelt particularly on the change which had taken place in the opinion of his Ma jesty’s Government as to the necessity for re taining the clauses directed against agitation at political meetings. His Lordship concluded by moving for the production of the letter ad dressed by the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland to Earl Grey, and from which the change of opin ion in some members of the Cabinet had arisen. A discussion of some length and of much in terest ensued, in the course of which Earl Grev avowed the part which he had taken in prevail ing upon Lord Althorp to remain m of fice. He also justified his Majesty’s present Government in altering the bill as they had done, though he conceived that the most useful clauses were those which were omitted. But tl& --hv th. .Iheln: sures which had taken place. As for the letter alluded to in the motion, it was strictly of a private nature. He would not give it up with out permission from theLord Lieutenant to do so. The discussion, which lasted for some time, concluded by the withdrawing of the motion, Lord Wharncliffe having consented thereto at the suggestion of several Peers. Monday, July 21. The Marquis of Londonderry took occasion to allude to the difference of opinion which ex isted, with respect to the Church Commission, between a noble Marquis in that House (the Marquis of Lansdowne) and another member of the Government, in another place. His Lordship described the inconsistency as a de parture from principle, and further characterized it as disgusting, and was proceeding to quote and compare the speeches, when Lord Melbourne rose to order, upon the ground that it was irregular to comment upon i newspaper reports, and speeches made else-; where. 1 The Lord Chancellor then rose to move the j second reading of the Poor Laws’ Amendment Bill. The second reading was eventually car ried, on a division; the numbers being—for the j original motion, 76; for the amendment 13—ma jority 63. The bill was then read a second time. Tuesday, July 22. Lord Duncannon took his seat and subscribed the roll of Parliament as Baron Duncannon of Besborough. The Marquis of Westmeath, on rising to move for a copy of a portion of a letter addres sed by him to the lord lieutenant of Ireland, in May last, took occasion to ask the lord chan cellor, whether if a bill were introduced into par liament to punish slanderous attacks upon the characters of individuals made in either house, he (the lord chancellor) would support such a bill? After some discussion on the point of order— The Lord Chancellor declared that he would not support it; but on the contrary, he would op pose such a bill, as an infringement upon the bill or rights, and an invasion ol the freedom of de bate. The law, as it stood at present, wa6 effi cient for the protection of character; or if any improvement were to be wished he hoped they might expect it from the propriety and taste of the audience addressed. The Capital Punishment Bill was read a third time and passed. The first reading of the Punishment of Death Bill (a more comprehensive mejsure than the preceding one) was postponed at the suggestion of tile Lord Cham ellur, ho pledged himself to introduce a tueasuft- ncxi session founded on the report of the Law Comr.Usioners. House of Commons—Tat rsday. July 17. Tiie House being exceedingly crowded. Lord Althoupstated that Lord Melbourne had com pleted the arrangements for the formation of an Administration; Lord Duncatmon was to be Home Recreta.y; Sir J.C.Hobhouse Commission er of ti e W oods and Forests: and his Lordship would continue Chancellor of the Exchequer, in compliance with the gracious request of his Majesty. He highly eulogised Earl Grey, and considered his loss irreparable. The principle of the Administration would be consistently with the safety of the institutions of the country, to carry on such reforms as he thought the peo- j pie had a right to expect from the reform of Par- j liament. He added that Lord Melbourne would be at the head of the Government—a Nobleman of judgment and qualities well fitted for his sta- i tion. He concluded witli moving for a new writ for Nottingham, in the room of Lord Dun- cannon. Col. Evans said he had not signed the docu ment expressive of confidence in the Noble Lord, because he considered that the Govern ment had not realized the promises of reform, and that such a system of forwarding addres- j scs was throwing too much power into the j hands of cabals and clubs. Mr. Tennyson said he should repose confi- i dence in the Administration, chiefly because Lord Althorp formed part of it. A good deal of desultory, and sometimes rath-1 er sharp discussion took place. Sir R. Peel inquired whether the Government intended to proceed with the Church Rates Bill, the Irish Tithe Bill, and the Coercion Bill? The Chancellor of the Exchequer replied that the Irish Tithe Bill would be proceeded with. As to the Coercion Bill, he should hereafter move for leave to bring in a bill to renew the Co- j ercion Act, “with modifications.” With res-! pect to the Church Rates Bill, he was not pre pared to say what was the determination of the Government. Mr. Barino inquired when the budget was to be brought forward. The Chancellor of the Exchequer said he should bring it forward on Wednesday. The new writ in the room of Lord Duncannon was then.ordered. Friday, July 19. The Chancellor of the Exchequer moved for leave to bring in a bill to continue and amend the Act for the Suppression of Disturbances in Ireland.” He described the advantages which the existing act, had produced in Kilkenny, Westmeath, Galway, and three other counties, and contended that continued protection was ♦required for the peaceable inhabitants of Ire land. His Lordship adverted also to the cor respondence between Earl Grey and the Mar quis Wellesley, and declared that after what had passed in relation to that correspondence, no set of men, be they w ho they might, could carry the bill its original form. Mr. Sergeant Lefroy contended that the vin dication of public character rendered it impera tive that the reason should be shown why the same men now asked for a less coercive mea sure than only a month or two before, they had deemed to be absolutely requisite. Mr. O’Connel said his indignation was mov ed on hearing the representative of the clergy and a University in Ireland, deplore that the co ercive measures of theb-li were to be mitigated. The spirit of such observations would show how it happened that Ireland had so long been sub jected to bad government. The motion led to an extended and animated debate, in which Sir R. Peel and other members took part; but no opposition was made to the motion, except the opposition preferred by Mr. O’Connell, who though he admitted the greatly ameliorated charactor of the bill, resisted it on the principle that the ordinary laws were suffi cient to suppress those disturbances which, be admitted, broke out in parts of the country.— He persisted in pressing the motion to a division. The numbers were—ayes 140; noes 43; majori ty 97. rhe bill was afterwards brought in. read a first time, and ordered to be read a second time on Monday. Mr. Poulter moved that the Lord’s Day Ob servance Bill (No. 2) be read a third time. Mr. Potter moved an amendment, that it be read this day six months. There were, for the j third reading, 67; against it, 24: majority, 33.— j It was read a third time; after which Mr. Cay-' ley moved a new clause to legalise'all games of j exercise in the open air on Sundays not played I Thp rl.n.p was carried, as were some other clauses; ufter which some of the friends of the bill said, as the bill was so altered, that they would rather should not pass. The Hduse divided on that qaestion. The numbers were—for the against it 35. There was a majority of lour against it. The bill was consequently lost. Monday, July 21. The second reading of the Coercion (Ireland.) Renewal Bill was moved by the Chancellor ot the Exchequer. Mr. P. Serope spoke strong ly against it, and urged the necessity of the Poor Laws for Ireland. He moved as an amend ment, a resolution to the effect that it_ was ne cessary to the tranquility of Ireland, that able bodied laborers of that country should be assur ed of being able to gain subsistence by peace able and honest labor; and that the House do pledge itself to resume the subject at the earli est possible period. Such a pledge would tran quize Ireland more than Coercion Bills. Mr. F. O’Connor seconded this amendment. After an extended discussion, the amendment was ne gatived; and the second reading ot the Bill was carried on a division; the Ayes were 14G; Noes, 25. The Chancellor of the Exchequer observed that the modes of remuneration heretofore had proceeded on a bad principle; the present Go vernment had endeavored to correct it by nam ing specific sums instead of salaries. Sir H. IIardinge said that the Commissions might be useful, but their utility was decided bv the character of the individuals appointed. Mr. Kennedy, after what had passed, said he would withdraw his motion, and bring the sub ject forward at the commencement of the next session. Mr. Littleton obtained leave to bring in a bill to continue for one year, and to the end of the then next session, the acts regarding the importation and the keeping of arms in Ire land. The Irish Coercion Bill was then committed, and the Committee was occupied to a late hour in the consideration of its several clauses. Mr. Sheil inquired as to the non production of the treaty of Constatinople. Lord Palmer ston, replied, that as this country was no party to the Treaty, it did not come officially before the Government. Mr. O’Connell gave notice that, should he fail to carry the amendment which he intended to move on the Tithes (Ireland) Bill, he should move that it be further proceeded in “six months” hence. Lord Palmerston, in reply to inquiries from Mr. Young and Colonel Evans, admitted that there was reason to believe that Don Carlos was in Spain, but added that Government had no authentic intelligence of the fact. Mr. Labouchehe moved, in a Committee of Supply, the grant of XG0.000. to enable his Ma jesty to make gratuities to the officers and men engaged in the battle of Navurino, to be distri buted as his Majesty shall direct. Mr. Young and Mr. Shiel objected to the scale of distriou tion understood to have been adopted by the Government; and Mr. Sheil moved as an amend ment that the distribution be according to re cent regulations respecting prize-money. The Committee divided on this amendment; there were for it 35, against it 129, majority against It U4. FRANCE. Marshal Soult has retired from the French Ministry, and has been succeeded by Marshal Gerard, both as Minister of W ar, und Presi dent of the Council. Various rumors are afloat as to the causes of this change. Some huvc at tributed it to the old marshal’s expensive though effective appropriations for the military service, which were deemed incompatible with the views of the chamber who are studying econo my, and acquiring increasing power over the public purse. Orders have been given by the French Go vernment to the Prefects to prevent the entrance of Marshal Bourmont into France, even though he should be.furnished with a regular passport. From these precautions taken, it is naturally to be inferred that M. Berryer and Marshal Bour mont had planned a meeting. SPAIN. There seems to be no longer any doubt, says the London Courier of the 21st, that Don Car los has reached Spain, and according to his or gans in Paris, he is immediately to march on Madrid at the head of seventeen thousand men. How he got to Spain is yet a matter of discus sion, though the prevalent opinion at Paris seems to be, that he landed somewhere near Bayonne, and did not pass through France.— He has appointed M. Villemur his Minister of War, and Zemalacarroguy his commander in Chief. His presence in Spain, and this sort of organization, will probably makethe war now one of armies, and it is to be hoped will put an end to those massacies which have occasional ly of late disgraced Spain. The journals in the interest ol Don Carlos are naturally much 'elated with his success, and they speak of Ro dil’sarmy being disaffected, and ol the further success of Don Carlos as assured. How the contest may turn out it is impossible to conjec tore, though, fioni the charge now urged against M Jauge, that of misprison of treason in having contributed to levy war on an ally of France, it seems not unlikely that France, and, we pre sume, Portugal, will immediately offer their as sistance in opposing Don Carlos. The letters from Madrid say that the alarm as to the cho lera had much diminished, and that no doubt was then entertained that the Cortes would be assembled on the 24th. The results were gene rally considered to be more liberal than the Ministers. The Count de Toreno is again spo ken of as the head of the Movement party, and as likely, on the meeting of the Cortes, or even before that time, to make a struggle to get rid of his colleagues and establish a Ministry dispo sed to go faster and further than that of M. Martinez de la Rosa. Advices had been received from Madrid to the 9th of July inclusive, at which time all the apprehensions that had been indulged in of a visitation of the Cholera had subsided. The project of assembling the Cortes at Segovia was abandoned, and that body would meet at the capital on the 24th, to which place the Queen would return on the 22d. The Memorial Bordelais of the 16th inst. con tinues to express doubt of the truth of the ru mors circulated on the frontier relative to the arrival of Don Carlos in Spain, but,” added it we have just received news which would seem calculated to remove all doubt on the subject.— A mercantile house of this town received yes terday from a correspondent in London, a let ter of the 10th, in which is the following pas sage—“ I have just left Don Carlos, after ha ving had a long conference with him.” After this we think that great mistrust ought to be en tertained of the versions circulated, probably by those who are interested in the cause of the Spanish Carlisfs. Don Carlos not having the faculty of ubiquity, could not be in Bayonne on the 9th, and in London on the 10th.” The Indicateur, on the other hand, regards Don Carlos’s presence in Spain as confirmed, but, contrary to all former statements, affirms that lie landed from the United Kingdom steamer at a port near Bayonne, and thence proceeded to Spain passing through Bayonne on the 9th. After all there is so much contradiction in all the accounts, that we decline expressing any de cided opinion on the subject. The Morning Herald seems to confirm the Memorial Borde lais, by the following paragraph. There are persons of credit who unhesitatingly affirm that Don Carlos was to their knowledge in the me tropolis up to the middle of the day, Thursday, the 10th inst.” The general opinion entertain ed seems to be that if Don Carlos has not pro ceeded to Spain, he has been personated by some individual, who has gone thither in 4ns name, for some purpose connected not unlikely with stock jobbing transactions. TURKEY. Intelligence was received in Paris on the 19th ult.,by a letter from Jassy, dated the 30th of June, stating that the English and French fleets de manded the psssage by the Bosphorus, declar ing that in case of refusal they would resort to force, and throwing all the responsibility of the events which might follow, on the Turkish Ca binet. N The Sultan granted the passage, and more than forty vessels were assembled before Con stantinople. An extract of a letter from Smyrna, dated June 6th, states that the island of Samos surren dered to the Turkish fleet on the 24th of May, without resistance. GREECE. The news is contradictory. That which comes direct, is unfavorable; but the acounts via Munich, furnished by the German courtiers of King Otho, are otherwise. So far from requir ing more troops from Germany, it is said that the Minister of War at Munich has recalled the two battalions that still remain in that country. In case of need the Greek Government would have the assistance of the numerous troops on board the English and French squadrons in the Mediterranean. It is affirmed that the mission of Count Van Seinheim to Malta, is relative to this matter. The recruiting for the Greek ser vice proceeds hefe very briskly. A new com pany of pioneers has been organized under the command of Lieut. Muller, and will set off for Greece in a few days with one hundred volun teers.

BERNARD HOOE, Treasurer, jy 18—tlSthAug U3- The above meeting is postponed till Thursday, the 25th September next, aug 14—eot25S B. HOOE, Treasurer The New York Courier and Enquirer cot tains the following account of a very unpleasant occurrence; we do not know to what denomina tion the church belongs; nor, in our opinion, is it of much consequence—it is not a sect that suffers. Those who do wrong are disgraced; and wrong done, in the name of religion, brings a stain where every Christian should feel desirous his conduct should put no blot. A Church Brawl.—Our readers are not per haps aware that a difference, on doctrinal points, has, for some time past existed among the con gregation of Dr. McLeod’s 'Church, in Cham bers street, and so many difficulties have, in consequence arisen, that the Chancellor has been invoked to exercise his authority on the subject. Accordingly, after mature delibera tion, he gave his decision and issued an order in favor of one of the parties, who took posses sion of the Church on Tuesday last. The mal contents, however, determined not to be put down by the mere dictum of a Chancellor, re solved upon repossessing themselves of the pio perty. Accordingly yesterday morning, some time before church hours, a party of them, arm ed with crowbars, forced an entrance into the basement story, and took possession of the build ing. The worthy pastor having been apprized of this movement, wisely resolved, in order to avoid the scandal of a brawl, not to solemnize divine service, and, with his followers, went to another meeting. In the mean time, those who were opposed to the decision of the Chancellor collected in the church with the females of their families, and, assisted by a young clergyman whose name we have not learnt, performed di vine service. At one time the crowd in front of the church conducted themselves so disor derly that the Alderman of the Sixth Ward re quested the interference of the Police. Lyons and Smith, the officers, were accordingly sent to keep the peace; apd the afternoon service passed off quietly. As the gates of the iron railing in front were locked, those in possession of the church at one tune resolved upon forcing them, in order to give ingress to the congrega tion, but having been given to understand bj the officers that sucli an act would lead to a breach of the peace for which they would be held responsible, they refrained from proceed ing. Accordingly nil who came to church, male and female, were obliged to scramble over the 1 iron railing at some risk of impalement. I Pick Pocket.—Yesterday morning, about halt past five o’clock, Mr. John A. Robb, of Balti more, having taken passutre on board the <ix o’clock boat of the Uaii Road Line for New York, went to the captains office and paid his passage. He then returned his book to the in side pocket of his coat, and while taking up his ticket and change, he felt a movement in hi' j pocket. He turned round, and saw near him a very large and a good looking man, quietly slipping his (Mr. R.’s) pocket book into Ins breeches pocket. Mr. R. seized his arm and charged fiim with the theft, in doing which the book fell upon the deck. The noise brought the elder Captain Jenkins to the scene, and with some exertion the theif was got on shore. Hcie his immense size and strength gave him a hope of escape, and he knocked about very lustily, but Cupt. Jenkins had an uncomfortable hold 1 upon his neck. A police officer not being at hand, the rogue w as shut up in a room belong ing to the company, and a guard set. After some time, a goodly sized police man wai called for the occasion, and the man was taken from durance, and escorted up the street. In going along, he was so much taller than his at tendants, that he looked over their heads for s place of escape, and when arrived at Fourth street, he sprung suddenly from their grasp, made a clear passage, and ran up Fourth street. The hue and cry” of “stop thief” was raised, 1 and the man wfas again stopped. He was then conducted to Alderman Binns’s office, and thence conveyed to prison. Mr Robb deferred his passage until the later boat, with a view of giving evidence against the rogue.— U. S. Gaz Threatened Assassination.--An infamous hand bill was found circulated on Friday morning, in the streets of Charlestown, threatening to af sassinate any person who should either prose 1 cute, or give testimony tending to convict, any 1 of the persons concerned in the late incendiary conflagration at the Ursuline Convent. Stk'< a vile outrage upon the general sense of the community is well calculated to rou.-e every in dividual in the city and country, to ferret or! and bring to condign punishment both the in cendiaries who applied the torch to the l nr. vent, and the no less guilty authors of such handbill. Let it be known that the sentim<’u: of the handbill are participated in by any fi bination of individuals, and the outraged f" ings of the whole State, from the Atlantic!" the Western frontiers, would arm evety hoia* citizen in support of the laws and against ui.i night assassins. We also learn, that the handbill intimate? t-'? certain persons were bound by the same oath!' assassinate as above stated, as they had to* to burn the Convent—Boston Ceutinel. A Mother's Instruction.—The following <JU'" tation from an Address of the Principal !f* Flushing Institute, Rev.

Mahon, at New York, who left Tampi co ou the 4th instant, informs that the yellow Ker was raging at that place and carrying off ,rreat numbers of the inhabitants._ Another renunciation of Jacksonism.— A pub c dinner was given a short time since at Tus caloosa, to the Hon. Gabriel Moore, the lute Governor of Alabama, and at present one of *;er Senators in Congress. We extract the fol lowing from his speech on the occasion in reply to a complimentary toast: Mr. Moore said, he had been one of the early and warm friends of Gen. Jackson, and he ad hered to him until by the violation of the pledges of himself and friends, the President had com pelled him either to desert him, or to desert the principles of constitutional liberty. When this alternative presented itself he had not hesitated. He went on to enumerate the various pledges which the President had violated; among the rest, he spoke of the assurance that was given that Gen. Jackson would serve but one term. It had been said that when an incumbent of the Presidency had his eye upon a-second election the first term was generally spent in electioneer ing, rather than in seeking the good of the coun try; yet this course which Gen. Jackson had condemned when a candidate, he had practised when he had obtained the office. Mr. Moore, spoke oi the zealous efforts for retrenchment and reform, which the Jackson party, and himself among the rest, had made, while Mr. Adams was in office. Gen. Jackson had pledged him self to the same cause; and yet the retrench ment actually effected proved to be the increase of offices and almost doubling of the expenses of government: the reform was nothing more than an indiscriminate removal from office of all but his own devoted partizans—though ma ny of those removed were men of high honor and integrity—&, putting in their places his own creatures who were prepared to do his will in all things, whether right or w rong.

Walloon—Yesterday afternoon, the steam fer ry bouts and all other boats, were thronged with passengers, to see Mr. Elliott and a lady ascend with a balloon. The wharves on the Philadelphia side were crow ded, and the rig ging of the vessels at the wharves fully man’d. Many thousands of persons were in the vicinity of the garden where the balloon was being in flated, and about 3000 within the enclosure. At twenty minutes past five, the car was attached to the balloon, and shortly afterwards the lady took her seat in the car, amidst a clamor rather than a shout. Mr. Elliott then took his seat, and piep irations for departure were completed; but it was found that there was not buoyancy suffi cient in the balloon to take up both. The lady then got out, but the balloon refused to ascend with one. The ballast was thrown over and ftie instruments; the balloon started, but still it 'vould not go. Mr. E. then threw over a great portion of his clothing, but still it was in vain The balloon was then brought back and some more gas generated, but a second attempt at ascension with a little boy was equally unfortu nate,and,some unruly persons rushed in and tore tne balloon to pieces, and committed other ex cesses— V.

French Commercial Regulations.—The Moni teur of to-day contains several ordonnances of the highest importance, emanating from the Minister of Commerce. We copy them literal ly, with an explanation of the principles upon which they are founded. The first ordonnance fixes the delivery of raw sugars, other than white, and candied su gar, dried and transparent, whatever its color may be, in weights of 75 kilogrammes; lump and powdered white sugar, 78 kilogrammes; Muscovado, or Brazil sugar, at the former re gulations of 75 kilogrammes. The second ordonnance authorizes the im portation of raw silks, unbleached foulards, rum, arrack, ratafia, &c. on the same principle that i French cashmires are sent out of Europe; and it takes off as respects them the restrictions which were imposed by the ordonnance of the 8th of February, 1826, upon the productions of Asia, Africa, and America. The third ordonnance reduces to 20 per cent, the duty upon linens. It contains many arrange ments of the highest interest relative to naviga tion, by military or merchant steam vessels. The ordonnance regulates in a very useful man ner the markets of several frontier towns, and authorizes the holding of markets at Toulon and Adge. In a word, this arrangement of the Minister of Commerce opens a new era to Com merce, industry and, agriculture, and is a hap py presage of the progressive application of those principles by which it has been dictated. [Moniteur. Baltimore Patriot Office, Tuesday, 1 o'clock, P. M Flour.—There is no animation in the Flour market, and the transactions are still limited, there being no foreign demand. The opera tions are of a real business charactei, as there is nothing to induce speculation: and though the receipts are rather more than usual at this season, yet the demand is fully equal, and the price Irom stores presents a shade of improve ment. The price from wagons, we quote as before at S5 12 1-2. Sales from stores 5 25 a 5 37 12, according to the quantity and quality. City Mills Flour we quote at 5 50.

Our worst apprehensions for the safety of the expedition to the far West, composed of the re giment of Dragoons, Ac. already begin to be realized. Brigadier General Leavenworth, who commanded it in chief, is no more. He died of a bilious fever, at a place called Cross Timbers, on the 23d of last month; and one or two other officers are reported to be ill. The command, by the death of General L., devolved on Gene ral Dodge, the Colonel of the Dragoons. At. Detroit, on the 13th instant, Gen. Charles Larned. Gen. L. was a native of Massachu setts; for many years he has been an active, useful, and prominent member of the communi ty of Detroit. He held the office of Brigadier General in the militia of the Terri tory of Michi gan, by appointment of the President and Se nate, and endeavored to create and perfect a thorough organization and discipline. At Pittsburgh, (Pa.) on Saturday afternoon, the 16th instant, Col. William Piatt, of the Uni ted States Army. Lately, in Boston, Frederick Mellen, son of Hon. Prentiss Mellen, of Portland, aged 29. Fre derick Mellen graduated at Brunswick in 1825, and afterwards applied himself to the study of the law. He was an enthusiastic devotee of po lite literature and the fine arts; and the public journals and annuals have often been enriched by the offsprings of his genius. In Nantucket, Captain Joshua Coffin, aged 75. Capt. C. was one of the first explorers of the Pacific Ocean, in pursuit of the spermaceti whale. In Baltimore, on the 25th, Dr. William How ard. The extensive scientific acquirements of Dr. Howard had procured for him an important appointment, from which great public benefit i was anticipated, and hissuddeu death will prove a serious loss to many other sections of the country as well as his native city.

The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin istered for manv years, as a thorough remedy for that well known and prevalent class of inveterate diaeases which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he reditary predisposition in the patient, and generally appear under the various and distressing shapes of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St. Anthony’s Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Fdol and Ob stinate Ulcers. Sore Legs and Byes, Scald Head, and Venereal Taint. In the last mentioned condition of the system, the Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thua prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he reditary disease on his offspring.

It it only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms -oppression of the breas*; greenish and bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri veiled extremities, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet anJ legs; and at last, in the full posses sionofthe mental faculties, and while hope still whis pers her flattering, tale—fold extremities, and a pre mature death.

Imposition having been practised upon the pub lic by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jud kins’ Ointment,'* the proprietor avails himself of tbe authority granted to him in his fetter* patent, now to call the Ointment after hi« own name. Henceforth it will be known by the name of SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT WENT, (formerly Judkint\) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effects, I sent it to several physicians, with instruction* i cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would be a valuable public benefit.

P LEE. IUltiwobe. August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. L*x, New London, ounn. Dias Sia—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 di^ase, and believe they aa> ved many a long doctor’s bill oy their early and timely use. 1 never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until u few m rnths pasts and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve ry instance of using them, I oegan to conclude that you Lad made your fortune, and abau loned their manufac ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this impression, 1 accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New Vork newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your I WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each oill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other reapact. Finding those I had without this test, I be gan to Siiapect that all was not fsir in medicine, as well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe caries for your pills, with your written signature. I found many without this test, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs. Keerla’, who assured me they had them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using tham, found the same effects from them I had always experienced, and am »o much rejoiced on finding my set ftii sspoiseinn of a medicine I so highly ptize, that that 1 camjot, in jujtice,. refrain from giving you Ibis information. QCy To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the bill of directions crvering each box, sad if signed st foot, in my own handwriting, im- mediately under my printed name, they are genuine,; and prepared by met but if omr the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided. 9.

To Mr. Samuel Young. Agent for the Hygeian Vege* table Universal Medicines, for the Stale of Rhode Island. Sin—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to giYe a brief statement of a cure, which, 1 think, 1 received 1 from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the same the more cheerfully, because thereby, perhaps, I 1 may be useful to some of ray fellow-men, who may I I be afflicted with a similar disease. I My complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may be explicitly under- i stood, 1 state, in connexion with the relation of the I cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1832,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week, I with a fever, attended with considerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining mv health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be* fore in usual health, I found myself bleed’ng at the lungs. I hsd 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, pa<n 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 rel*p9e upon relapse, and each bringing me lower than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skiil, atxl 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 Hygeian Medicines I had now been unable to sit up a whole dsy, for four months and a I half My feet were cold and lifeless, sleep unsound, cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the I 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, Ac. Ac. Such was my condition, when I first became acquainted with the Hygeian Medicines 1 commenced taking the medi* cinrs, four pills at a do,e, an l increased the dose dai ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten days, my appetite became good, and fo id produced no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing, and in about fortv days the symptoms of thediseasc had nearly ali disappeared I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night, averaging about ten pills at a dose; the grea’esi num ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I took about four doses a week, until I had taken abou' thirteen hundred pills, when 1 found myself restored to health. Alter l commenced the Hyg< ian, I took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I i was able to resume my studi s in college, where I have since remained without any recurrence of the j disease Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and if I 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. l)n H SiiKriiueuD Moat. Dear Sir—I wish to state that my sister, after severe suflroiig, ami employing a medical man three years, was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indeed, to use her own expression, her is on one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain was a violent burning p .in, almost intolerable; so see vere, that she could not sit up for upwards of three years. It was occasioned by over-lacing hers If, end perhaps, over exertion with it. \fter using a few, doses of No, 1 and 2. alternately, about eight pills for a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in their use, she is now restored to health; and I have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly, II. DYKU. Low jll, Massachusetts, Feb 8, 1834. Injustice to Dr. II,, her medical auviser, when he heard bet 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, vs containing not me particle of mercurial, mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un congenial to the nature of man, and therefore destiue tive to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un der every stage of human suffering; the most pi asant and benign in it operation, and at the snnr time the most searching out the rout of every complaint, how ever deep, and of performing a cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and being called a few extra times to the purposes of eva cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the tear of catching cold, or attention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustomed habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all 1 human knowledge, has long Dome testimony to tne 1 fact; and extensive use of them lias already verified its truth in this country. These medicines cure by purging; and yet the weak, the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, because they clear the body of its bad humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious menicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, cosiiveness, &c. The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great aa sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they soften, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirat. One, two, or threu powders may be taken throughout the day, mixed in half a wine glass of water. The genuine Medicines can be had of WM. POMEROY, Alexandria, Sole Agent for the Diitriet of Columbia and iti vicinity. By whom the Pills are sold in packets of one, two, and three dollars each, and the Powders at 374 cents 1 per box, with printed directions; and also by the fol lowing Sub-Agtnts: It. W.
