THE GAZETTE.' By EDGAR SNOWDEN. _ Tlailv naoer TK*MS‘ *9 per annum. Country paper _ 5 per annum. The ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE for the coun try ia printed on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. _ All advertisements appear in both papers, ana are inserted at the usual rates. _ LATEST FROM EUROPE. The packet ship Napoleon, Capt. Smith, ar rived at New York, from Liverpool, whence she sailed on the 24th of August. Liverpool and London papers are of 23d inclusive. ENGLAND. With the adjournment of Parliament, the men of note” had quitted the Metropolis for the sports of the country, and the fashionable ease of retirement. All was tranquil in the three kingdoms. Mr. O’Connell has gone to Derrynane; and Lord Brougham has departed for Westmoreland. On his way home he pass ed through Lancaster and honored the bar with his company to dinner. The turtle soup was excellent, and the toasts and jokes were of the old character—not, as the parson of Harrow would say, fit to be reported. Parliament, it is said, will not be called to gether until the end of next January, and that all the great Ministerial measures will be laid before the House soon after it assembles. A company is in the course of formation for the construction of a railway from London to Norwich. The line is intended to be through Romford. Brentwood, Ingatestone, Chelmsford, Witham, Colchester, fpswich, and Barry. In one of the clauses of the Poor Laws’ Amendment Bill, it is enacted That orphan children shall be educated as the parents shall direct!” Medical men, we regret to learn, concur in stating that there is more sickness at this time in London, than has been at any preceeding period of the year. The supplies of wheat in Mark-lane, during the week ending Aug. 23. were larger than in any former similar period since the year 1821. Advices have been received from Gibraltar, under date of the 9th ultimo, stating that the cholera had ceased, and clean bills of health had been issued. A prospectus for establishing a new- patent soap company, had been issued at Birmingham, a valuable substance or compound,” for which a patent has been granted, to be employed in the manufacture: the capital to be £250,000, in £o snares. The Queen had returned to England from her visit to Holland and Germany. The Slave Thade.—On the 14th of June, H. M. brig Charybdis, captured a large brig called the Tamaga, under Portuguese colors, in the Bight of Benin with 444 slaves on board, with which she proceeded to Sierra Leone. Mont Blanc.—iMie summit of Mont Blanc was reached on the 18th uit., by two travellers from Savoy, who in their descent were envel oped in a storm so tremendous that they near ly perished of cold and exhaustion. On Monday, the 18th of August, the working builders struck throughout the metropolis, ra ther than sign a declaration required by the masters, that they do not and will not belong to the Trades Union societies. The masters are resolved to persevere. The Cork Herald states that the Rev. Mr. No lan, who took such a leading part In the public controversial discussions in Ireland, and who was the intimate friend of Dr. Doyle, is report ed to have resigned his parish in the diocese of Leh'hiin, and conformed to the doctrines of the Established Church. Transubstantiation is the groundwork of his objection to the tenets of the Church of Rome. A Short Assize.—The whole business of the Westmoreland Arizes occupied but two hours. At the termination of the last case, Lord Lynd hurst, looking at the Jury, said, “Gentlemen, you are discharged;” and then at the Bar, Gentlemen, 1 am sorry to say, you are dischar ged also.” The gentlemen of the long-robe,” who wore very long faces, smiled, bowed, and retired. _ Lord Chief Justice Denman, op pronouncing sentence of death upon Sampson, nt the late Wells Assizes, did not conform to the judicial custom of putting on the black cap; an omission which, having also occurred in other parts of the present Western Circuit, affords a presump tion that this feature of the Judge’s awful duty is in future to be dispensed with. The Munster Summer Assizes circuit has ter minated, and the result is—two executions only; one for murder at Ennis, another man for the same crime at Tralee. None at Limerick or ^Ttie Oxford Circuit has just concluded. Al though it extends over eight counties, no per son has been sentenced to death. Hops.—All the advices from the plantations are very favorable. The vines are daily gain ing strength, and there was every prospect of an abundant picking. Bets on the duty were done on Wednesday in the Borough nt £135,000. The accounts of the progress of the harvest both in Scotland and Ireland ure most encour aging. Choleha in Dublin.—The authorities of the city have been compelled to re-open the Metro politan Hospital at Gi ange-Gorman lane, for the reception of cholera patients. No less than one hundred and fifty-eight new cases in the city were announced on the 16th of Aug. One of these was a poor woman who expired on the foot path in Marlborough-street, having been refus ed all ingress by the affrighted inmates of the houses in whose vicinity she was seized with the symptoms of this dreadful disorder. Ac counts from Castlebar, county of Mayo, speak of the speed w’ith which sufferers are now carried off there with astonishment. The physicians say, that the attacks of this season much more resemble the Asiatic cholera than those of 1832. FRANCE. The Paris papers contain no domestic intel ligence of importance. The Police had been hoaxed with a report, that Don Carlos was con cealed in Paris. A search had been made— but, of course, without success. The losses occasioned by the stormy weather in France within the last two months, are estima ted at tw'o millions of francs. It is remarked that the present Chamberof De puties, in Paris, contains only 80 out of the 221 of comte-rendu celebrity. Nine Benedictine nuns, from Chavaignes, in the department of Maine-et-Loire, seven of whom are French and two Scotch, embarked last week at Calais, for Edinburgh. The number of visitors to the Rhine this sum mer, hasbee» unexampled, and has taught the innkeepers and others on the route, the value of rhino. The Journeldes Connaisancea Lmellta says, that sugar is a complete antidote for poisons oUr tained from the oxydesof copper and lead. A Wild Goose Chase.—A paragraph head ed “iErial Ship,” is making the circuit or the papers, and we have been given to understand that this aerial vessel, 134 feet long, by 34 feet high and 25 feet wide, is constructed in the form of an air bladder or a fish, and calculated to raise a weight of 6,500 pounds, and capable of ac commodating thirty persons. It was to have ascended on the 15th instant with 18 persons on board, and the adventurers expected to navi gate it from Pai is to London in six or eight hours. It appears, however, that the bubble (that is, the balloon) burst during the process of inflation, so that the grand flight must be post PThe Pope has resolved to address a second and last admonition to Don Pedro, and then should this prove ineffectual, to have recourse to excommunication. SPAIN. The French papers contain copious details of the progress of affairs in Spain, but nothing of great moment. It is true that Don Carlos, has not yet been expelled from Spain, but there is no prospect of his remaining there except as a fu gitive much longer. A telegraphic despatch re ceived at Paris, August 20th, states that he was at Bermeo on the 15th. The despatch further states that Rodil had left Marquina on the same day, at the head of seven thousand men, in pur sui't of Don Carlos; and that Jaurcgui had left Durango with three thousand men. According to another telegraphic despatch, also referred to in the Moniteur, two members of the Junta, who had returned from Biscay to Elisondo, have brought intelligence that Don Carlos was endea voring to embark. A third telegraphic despatch, however, states that the Governor of Tolosa had sent word that Don Carlos had gone through Aramayona, on his way to Onate, with very few followers.— Aramayona is a village situated about 10.or 12 leagues in the rear of Bermeo. “The night,” adds the Moniteur, “not having allowed us to learn more, we are left to mere conjecture as to the cause of the retreat of Don Carlos. It is most probable that Rodil and Jaurcgui had suc ceeded in placing themselves between Don Car los and the coast, where the Pretender intend ed, no doubt, to embark, and they have com pelled him to retrace his steps.” Rodil is pro ceeding against his adherents with a spirit suf ficiently sanguinary, for every prisoner made is forthwith shot; and it is possible thnt his pri soners by and by may be somewhat numerous, for he has cutoff the supplies of the enemy, and diminished their chances of escape. Such, at least, is the latest and best intelligence; hut, up on matters of Spanish news, the reader will lose nothing by being a little sceptical. The presence of Don Carlos, at this moment in Spain is the result of a holy alliance manrcu vre, for it was thought that a civil war in the Peninsula would embarrass the parties to the late treaty, or create enmity between them. It has certainly forced them prematurely into an avowal of principles, for they have agreed to adopt measures to restore peace to Spain.— They have agreed to prevent Don Carlos from receiving all military succors; and of course the next step will be. should he maintain his ground to adopt measures to compel him to withdraw. In the meantime, the Cortes had commenced its labors; and unless the Spaniards are more de based than even their enemies ajlege, there are hopes for the regeneration of their country. GERMANY. The Frankfort Correspondent contains the following of the 17th August:—“ The general affairs of Germany excite no more attention here, and the presence of foreign troops takes away all interest from the debates anil elections of our Senators. Since Austria and Prussia have taken us under their protection, we are no longer a free city and independent state. The debates of the Germanic Confederation will soon present great interest. The menace of a minis ter of Hesse Cassel to appeal to the Diet rela tive to the schism between the Government and the States, proves that the Congress of Vienna has dc facto abolished all the existing constitu tions. We no longer require the publication of the resolutions of the Congress. The bare fact i that the two greatest of the Germanic Powers, declared enemies of constitutions, should make themselves judges between a representative Chamber and a Federal Government is utterly at variance with the law of nations, and evi dently shows a determination to trample under foot the acquired rights of the people. We shall see how far the submission of tiie latter will extend. Whatever may be the result, the Opposition members of Cassel have discharged their duty. Let the other Germans do the same, or if they will bear the yoke let them not corn plain for they deserve it.” 1WBUWMB.L non auurt. The Augtburgh Gazette of the I7th inst. has the following from Constantinople of July 28:— The insurrection in Syria assumes a most se rious aspect. Ibrahim Pacha will have difficul tv in maintaining his ground in that province. The greater part of the population, especially in the mountains of Libanus, is in movement.— He is endeavoring to concentrate his forces in order to put an end to the insurrection at one blow; but the Druses are a warlike people, who will oppose a stronger resistance than he met with on the part of the Porte in Natolia. The Porte, although aware of what is going on, re mains inactive, and seems to be waiting the re sult. The news that the Viceroy has caused some regiments to be embarked for Syria, and will repair thither in person, has caused a pow’ erful sensation here. All the Faubourg of Pera is in movement, and couriers depart in every di rection. The maintenance of the occupation of Syria is a vital question for Mehemet Ali. If he should lose the province, there is an end to his projects of aggrandizement and his independ ence. It must be confessed that he possesses great means for maintaining his ground, but whether he conquers or not, he must abandon the line of policy which he has hitherto pursu ed. He must cease to treat his new' subjects as slsvcs. It is supposed that the intrigues of the Euro pean Powers are at the bottom of these events. The Ambassadors of England and France are struck with them, and arc watching their pro gress. The Porte hascvidently regained confi dence, and the intrigues of the Divan which sought to detach it from Russia, are more and more,neutralized. The Sultan often repeats his favorite saying—' I know what I have at pre sent, but I know* not what I should have if I lis tened to those who would detach me from Rus sia. I prefer the certain to the uncertain. I find a friend in Nicholas, but 1 know not what I could expect from the friendship of those who offer it to me.’ RUSSIA. Dreadful Conflagration.—Tula, one of the largest, handsomest and most populous Russian provincial capitals, was desolated on the llth of July, by a dreadfbl conflagration. Nine churches, 670 private buildings, and manufactories, markets and maga?"Jes ls reduced to ashes. Many thousand inhabitants have lost all their property. The Empeior h given 190,000 rubles to relieve their Hants. ALGIERS. A despatch of August 8th, from Gen. Vo rol, at Algiers, states that the country never enjoy ed greater tranquility. Complete peace an 1 curity extend to the foot of the Adas, mountain tribes even feel the advantage of dominion of the French, and seek to live on good terms with them. The town of I e and the tribes ofTitteri have misunderstandings among themselves, but both are anxious to a ve the French in that district. The town of Me deah seeks protection against the Ley or stantine whose threats keep it in a state of alarm. The sanatory state of ths country is satisfactory. GREECE. It appears from the elaborate correspondence of a London paper, that Russian intrigue is \e ry active in Greece, and that some time must elapse before the throne o( Otho can be so firm ly established as to ensure that unsettled people the benefits of a stable and good government. The same paper contains the act of accusation and sentence of death upon Colocotroni am Coliopulos, in respect to whose trial an expla natory note of considerable length has been ad dressed to the Ministers of Foreign Powers re sident in Greece. _ _ LIST OF LETTERS REMAINING in the Post Office, Alexandria, D.

And this re mark applies, also, in the appointment of mid shipmen for the Navy, and cadets for the^army. Disgraceful Riot—Yesterday afternoon, about the close of divine service in the churches, a lu riousfrayhw* place in several of Ihe streets of o.ir city Leonard street, from Broadway to r Kim to Franklin; and Franklin from Elm Broadway, were thronged by hundreds of ri otous and disorderly people-bid not, as we are Lmv to learn, Americans. The contending Parties knocked each other down, stamped up on beat and kicked them when prostrate, with frightful Violence. Numbers might be seen fight in It the same time in various directions, and the seen“ was altogether brutal and disgusting. Our informant, who was an eye witness, believes there were an hundred fighting at the same time, i,, s lW several down at once, ami others jump on them, and he judged that there were 1000 persons looking on and around. 1 here appear ed to be more persons engaged than m any of our July riots. This happened near the resi dence ofthe Mayor, yet where was he. special ly charged with the peace of the city? W here, mo were the police?—not one of whom was to be seen! It is disgraceful enough to have riots atanv time; but such a riot on the Sabbath—in the most public part of our city—carries with it a deep and lasting disgrace. We do not learn I that any of them were arrested; nor, it arrested, do we suppose that any punishment would be inflicted upon them, that should have any possi ble influence in deterring from the commission of similar outrages in future.—Xew )ork Com Literuru.—Harper Brothers have just re ceived a part of E. 1..

Bulwer, Esq., bro ther of the novelist. entitled “France; Social, Literary ami Political.”—V. Y. Com. Xcvepnpers.—A man named Galon Clapp was charged with stealing newspapers from the -teps of one ofthe Insurance offices in State street. The offence was fully proved, and tii«? delinquent sentenced to pay a fine within ten days, or be confined one month in the House of Correction. Two other individuals are in custody upon a similar charge, and will be pro ceeded against, as soon as the necessary testi mony can be procured.—Bouton Courier. hm'nlntin? CUeet».— What will the ingenuity of man not contrive? A method has been dis covered of inoculating cheese; nr, in other words, of transplanting the charactei of an old cheese into a new one. This rather curious scheme is brought forward as a communication to the Agricultural Journal for march, by John Robinson Esq., Secretary id' the Royal Society of Edinburgh. 4If it be required’ says he, ‘to communicate to a new cheese the flavor and appearance of an old one, it may he done by the insertion in the new cheese of portions of the olii one containing blue mould.’ The little scoup which is used in taking sam- 1 pies of cheese is a ready made means of per- I forming the operation, by interchanging ten or a dozen of the rolls which it extracts, and place them so as to disseminate the germ of the blue mould-all over tin- cheese. A new Stilton cheese treated in this way, and well covered up from the air for a few weeks, becomes thoroughly impreg- nated with the mould, anil generally with a fla vor hardly to be distinguished from the old one. 1 have sometimes treated half a Lancashire cheese in this way, and have left the other half in its natural state, and have been much amus- j ed by the remarks of my friends on the striking superiority of the English over the Scotch one.’ i H HKD WARE.

It gives to the most stubborn locks a strong, glossy and lasting curl, removes the dundriff, which often impedes the growth of the hair, causing head-ache, &e. The Bear's Oil is far superior to Antique or Macassar Oils, which, being of vegetable origin, soon make the hair hard and crisp, while ani- mal oils, on the contrary, make it soft and beau tiful. Of the latter class, the Bear’s Oil. being more penetrating, is, of course, preferred. Mo thers will find it excellent for the heads of their children, and to gentlemen of fashion it is re commended for the growth of whiskers, V\ hen used, it should be well rubbed into the roots of the hair with a penetrating hair-brush, which excites also a healthy action in the skin} the hair should be well oiled every other day, be fore combing it. Being highly purified and pleasantly perfumed, it will he found decidedly superior to any other article for constant use m dressing the hair. Price 25 cents per bottle.

[N that long train of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civilized society, Consumption takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human life? yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con- j sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis- tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptoms—oppression of the breast? greenish and bloody spittle? ulcerated lungs and hectic fever? shri veiled extremetica, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks; swollen feet and legs? and at last, in the full posses sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still wins pers her flattering tale—cold extremities, and a pre mature death. For the various stages of this complaint, one of the most approved remedies ever vet discovered is DU. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS. This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid j cures upon patients supposed to have been far advauc ed ’n a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatal ter mination of die disorder. As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine ment, they may be administered with confidence and safety to all ages and.classes of people. Unexampled success has hitherto attended their administration in a great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and activity.

SIIEPIIERIVs patent SPECIFIC OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins’,) Prepared by C. HER STUNS, near Frederick. town, Maryland. Richmond. Va- July 15, 1810. rpllF, public will be pleased to understand that I was 1. the original discoverer of Judkins’Ointment, and j sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817, until the expiration of the same; taut, having connect ed myself with Dr. Judkins in the commencement, permitted the Ointment to bear his nam-. Die ter.-n of the patent h tving expired on the 26th June, 1 have made an improvement in the same, and takelf nt the authority granted to him in his letters paten'., now to call the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it will be known by the name of SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT MEN F, (formerly Judkins'.) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effect*, 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 tniny hands, some of whom would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the pr«»ccss—tie vertlieless, it might be progated in this adulterated si tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi nal—an I in this way its good elC-cts would be oblitera te.! Under these const.(.-rations, I secured the origi i nal and certainremeJTforlho.se obstinate diseases, some of which have so long baffleJ the skill of me meal science: 1st White swellings of every description; 21 Sore leis and ulcers of long standing, 3J Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythoie 1 hardened tumors in woman's breasts, which oftentimes terminate in ulcetated cancers; 4tb Felons; or what some people know by the name of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains ol the joints; 6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or in whatever part situate; 7th Tetters ol all kinds, fn this complaintthe ps tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part 1 outof water; 8th Chilblains or parts affected by frost. It is also one of the best remedies for burns and scalds. It cases the pain and draws the lire out in a short time. For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine vet known to the medical 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. Tins Ointment has cured sores of many years stand 1 ing. Where it i« impossible or imprudent to heal the externa! sore, in consequence of the nones becoming carious o» rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries, increi.se the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the pains. It cures the worst FeloJs and Whitlows, on applica tion of forty-eight hours. CERTIFICATES. Fromthe Hon. John Cocke, Member of the House of Re presentatives ia Congress. W ashuvotor, March 22, 1826.
