Oct 11 TO THE PUBLIC. DR. HOUSTON, successor of the late Dr. John Tiiaybold, Fellow of the Royal Col lege of Physicians of Persia, tenders his profes sional services to the citizens of Alexandria, D. C., and the public in general, and is ready to be consulted tiKATlS in ail cases of disease inci dent to the human frame, but more especially in that virulent and almost yet unconquerable dis ease the CANCER, as unquestionable authority can prove the cure of the most awful case which ever alliicted one of the human family. To those alliicted with this direful scouige, with hundreds of others, he particularly refers to the cure ol JAMES BOND, [see engraving below] x a slave formerly the property of Miss Sally Griffith, of this city, whose desperate situation, though for a series of years laboring under this affliction, yielded to his skill, though it had baf fled the science of most of the Faculty. Hope less of relief, in a reduced situation—abandoned by his friends, and seeking alms of the public, whose eye must revolt at a sight which would shock the liner feelings of mankind—at this time, fortunately for this object of pity, Dr. H. felt confident that he was iiis Creator’s instru ment to effect his cure, and is now a living wit ness oTthe truth of this asset lion, by proper me dicine, properly applied. To which, five cases of CANCER, and ma ny other inveterate sores, of long standing, might be added—all of which have been effec tually cured by Dr. Houston, in this city, within the last four months. Satisfactory reference to the persons will he given, on application. A.

By the packet ship Virginian, Capt. Harris, at New York, regular files of London papers to the evening of the 10th of October and Liver pool of the Ilth, have been received. The Vir ginian was detained from the 8th to Sunday the 12th. ENGLAND. A fire broke out on the night of the 10th Oc tober, in Liverpool, and destroyed 1500 bales of Cotton, 900 hhds. of Sugar, and other proper ty in the extensive warehouses of Messrs. Do Co. at Launcelofhey—loss estimated at rin ooo Another fire had also done great da mage in Jordon street, Park lane A spirit of speculation, particularly in Span ish stock, had prevailed in London to an unpre cedented extent. r There had been considerable amelioration ot the oressure for capital, among the mercantile classes in London, although two heavy failures were announced. The stock-jobbing mama was deeply reprobated. The English Court had gone into mourning for the death of Don Pedro. It is said that the oldest person living had no recollection of any thing like the heat of the weather in the month of October w ith w hich it h»a this year set in. n«S llll J _ 1 »I... fi.k n limn Hear Aumuai in the 57th year of his age. His decease cre ates a vacancy among the Lords of the Admi ralty. Gen. Sir Henry Ward, the father of the Countess of Guilford, also died on the 1st of October. t Janies Patterson, Esq., had been recommend ed to supply the place of Mr. Raikes, as Govern or of'the Bank of England. The quantity of coals consumed in England and Wales is calculated as follows: In the manufactories, 3.300,000 London chal drons- in household consumption, 5,500,000! making 9,000,000 London chaldrons, consum ed from inland colleries. The quantity sent coastwise on both sides of the island, is 3,000, 000 chaldrons—making 12,000.000 in all. Adverting to the subject of emigration to the Canadas a London editor remarks—“ The nroximitv of the United States influences the price of "labor in Canada, und no system with respect to future grants of land can have the ef fe permit British ministers to re ceive presents from the foreign governments to which they may be accredited. The Tea Trade.—The first sale of tea. being the cargo imported into Lordon from Singa pore since the opening of the trade by the dis continuance of the monopoly ol the East India Company, took place Oct. Sth, at Gurraway’s Coffee-house, and was numerously aut-nucii. There were declared for sale 400 chests of Bo hea 381chestsand loquarter-chestsofyoung Hy son 79 chests of Hyson, 114 chests of Congou, 48 chests of Orange Pekoe, and 6 chests of Gun powder. When the sale began, great competi tion was evinced to purchase the first chest of tea nut up under the new plan. The Congou first offered realized 2s 5^d per lb. and the other portion of the tea went off at 2s to 2s 5d per lb in bond. Padre tea in small parcels re alized from 3s 3d to 3s 6^d per lb. The next lot occasioned some discussion. It was ac knowledged by the selling broker to be a spuri ous imitation, containing not one particle of tea and was ultimately withdrawn. The sale was then continued. The tea put up sold from lslOd to 2s Id per lb. for Congous, and Padre from 2s 3d to 2s 5d per lb. The result of the sale is, that, allowing for the quality of the tea sold, prices were realized on the average from bd to 9d per lb in advance of those obtained at the quarterly sale of the East India Company. Ireland and the United States.—So great has become the communication between this country and Ireland, that it was ascertain ed by a clerk in the Post Office at Dublin, that the Postage received upon the letters in an American post-bag, in one day, was upwards of Mir. O’Connell is employing himself in pre paration for a strenuous effort to procure the abolition of the tithes in Ireland. He intends, says the Dublin Register, to give notice of a bill, lor next session— ii That the payment of tithes, and all composi tion rent, modus, or other satisfaction thereof, or substitution thereof shall totally and forever cease.” He would extinguish tithes, and com pel the landlords to contribute to make good to the public a reasonable share of the property which the exoneration of these lands from titles I would confer on them. He wouldcompensate the Jay impropriators and th* bcnificed clergymen. We see no possible objection to hfci proposition, rithes cannot last. They will not last through the next session; and if O’Connell is the instru ment of abolishing them, his would be the proud est boast any patriot could ever make,—that he obtained Catholic emancipation and that he a bolished tithes! FRANCE. Our French news principally relates to Spanish affairs, which we shall transfer to its more ap propriate head.—The intelligence peculiar to that kingdom is scanty. A report prevailed, says the Courner Fran cais, that Marshall Gerard, who is the only min ister that accompanied the King to Fontaine bleau, has determined to make an amnesty for political offenders a cabinet question, as it re gards the other ministers,and has declared to his friends that he would return from Fontaineblau with an act of amnesty, or without a ministerial port folio. The late Mademoiselle Bourgom, the celebrat ed actress, has left a million of francs to her na tural son, whose father was Marshal Oudinot.— Count Toreno, in his exile, was relieved by Ma dame B., and has recovered his estate in Spain, amounting to* 7 or 8 millions, which it is suppos ed will also be left to the son of the above nam actress. In the Parisian political and commercial cir cles, nothing is now talked of but Spain—her wars, debts, deputies, and dishonesty. The im pression is now becoming general, that no con-, fidence can be placed in pledges given by any party in Spain. The consequences of this state of public opinion, for which Spain may thank herself, will soon be found to operate ruinously on the commerce of that country. SPAIN. The war, or rather the butchery, between the government and Carlist parties, continues to be carried on with no definitive results in the northern parts of Spain. It is evident that both parties are feeble in force, but mutually excited by a spirit of exasperated vengeance. In their frequent conflicts, no quarter is given on either side. The weaker party is massacred by the stronger, and neither age nor sex is spred. It assumes every feature of civil war in its most ferocious aspect, and is immeasurably worse than the sanguinary contest that was so long carried on in Portugal. We cannot but hope that measures will be resorted to by the neigh boring powers to put an end to this bloody war Illl c. On the whole, the Queen’s party seems to have the advantage. On the 28th September, whilst El Pastor and Cordova were driving the Car lists out of the bastan, Zumalacarreguy, with his four battalions, was engaged with the division of Oran and part of the column of Lo renzo. The action commenced at 9 o’clock in the morning, and continued until four in the af ternoon. It took place at Sulinas de Ora. with in five leagues of Pampeluna. The troops of the Queen attacked the Carlists, and blood flow ed during seven hours without interruption.— The latter at last gave way, leaving 400 killed and wounded on the field. Accounts from Bayonne state that the health of Gen. Mina was but slowly improving so as to make it a matter of some doubt whether he would be able to assume the command of the army in Navarre before it becomes too late in the season for active operations. Rodil was at Zabiri on the 30th, preparing to return to Pam peluna. He did not intend to withdraw from the army until the at rival ol Gen. Mina. PORTUGAL. This kingdom is no longer the theatre of stir ring events. All is calm and tranquil. 1 he following remarks by a London editor give we think a very just picture of the present posture of its affairs:— The death of Don Pedro will have little effecL on the course of Portuguese affairs. The young* Queen will get married with all convenient speed, and the son of Eugene Beauharnois, when seated with her on the throne of Portu gal, is likely to be—at the very least—quite as efficient a protector of the young liberties of Portugal as Don Pedro was or would have been. Perhaps, on the whole, it may be just as well for Portugal that, at this time, Don Pedro should have died. Ambition is a catching disorder— the very epidemic of royalty—and it is proba ble enough that had health and strength pemit ted, Don Pedro might have made an attempt to appropriate to himself the diadem which he re covered for his daughter. This might have caused a civil war. The crisis is now over, and Portugal has a breathing time. Very much is to be done—for the condition of the people is lamentable. They are poverty-stricken—they are “out of heart,”—they are burthened with excessive taxation—and the strictest economy must be used in the expenditure of the public -revenues. Indeed, to effect permanent good in Portugal, the whole system of finance should be remodelled, and this w ithout delay. GREECE. A letter from Nauplia, dated September 3d, says—“'it is all over with the rebels; a single battalion has entirely destroyed their whole ar my, It is true that this battalion made use of their bayonets and swords, w hich is an unusual mode of lighting in Greece. The Roumeliote policari attacked the Moreots, killed 80, w’ound ed 70, and took 50 prisoners, with three stand ards, and we have just received positive intelli gence that one of the Chiefs of these armed bands has been arrested.” Important from France.—The following, pub lished in the Albany Daily Advertiser of Satur day last, as an extract from the Paris Corres pondent of that Journal, contains information of great moment, in a form entitling it to more credit than is usually given to common report: Paris, Sept. 29, 1834. Dear Sir: 1 presume you get all the news of interest through the English and French papers, and therefore, of the movements of the Spanish and Portuguese I need say nothing. But per haps it may be new to you, that there is an ewieute talked of in this country, which may yet reduce Louis Philippe to the ranks. It is well known that this personage has adopted a very different course from what was anticipated at the outset of his career. Liberal principles are at a discount with him, and much inquietude has existed in the saloons, on the subject of his future intentions. “Anew movement appears to be projected, and if it takes place, the consequences will be momentous. It is proposed to form a Grand Convention of the National Guards of France, to consist of De puties chosen by them from each department, and they will require from the- King some further concession to liberty, under the penalty of the consequences! The plan is no secret. I will give you fur ther information as soon as I can get it. While in your country you appear to be tending to a concentration of power in your President, which I time will show to be dangerous, here as well as in England, the people are trying to restrain hat very tendency. Yours.” FREDERICKSBURG TOWN MEETING. At a meeting of the citizens of Fredericksburg, Falmouth and their vicinities, convened, pursu ant to notice, to take into consideration the ex pediency of petitioning the next Legislature ol Virginia, fora charter incorporating a compa ny for the purpose of constructing a Rail Road, from Fredericksburg to the Virginia Springs, or to some point on the Western waters: John H. Wallace, Esq. was called to the chair, and John Terrrier appointed secretary. On motion of Dr. E. H. Carmichael, it was Resolved, That a committee of 10 be appoint ed to draft resolutions, &c. Whereupon the chair appointed Edward H. Carmichael, John S. Wellford, John 1. Lo max, Thos. B. Barton, Rev. R. Wellford R. B. Semple, Robert Ellis, W. M. Jackson, Wm. M. Blackford, and Fayette Johnston Esqr. for that purpose. The committee having retired, returned in a few moments and reported the following reso lutions, which, after some discussion, were a dopted. 1st. Resolved, That the scheme of a Rail Road from Fredericksburg to Guyandotte, or some other point on the western waters, is feasible and may be carried into effect, advantageously to the stockholders and the community. 2d. Resoloed, That a committee of three be appointed, to draft a memorial to the next Le gislature, for an act of incorporation. 3d. Resolved, That the Delegate from this county, and the Senator from this district, be re quested to use their exertions to obtain the said a j Joel Turrill. 18th, Daniel Ward well.§ 19th, Sherman Page. 20th, William Seymour. 21st, William Mason.

In reference to the result of the election, we find the following spirited remarks in the New' York American—remarks which, doubtless, speak the sentiments of the great body of the Whigs, not only in New York, but throughout the country:— The result of the Election in this State may well excite surprise We were, as we have al ready said, unprepared for it, and we believe it transcends the hopes of our adversaries almost as much as it disappoints our own. The causes that have had any agency in pro ducing this result are various, and not, perhaps, yet all fully known and appreciated. They are such as afford much ground, however, for se rious apprehension for the safety of the Consti tution and Libei ty of the country. Such a blind devotion to one man’s will, such a ready surrender of all constitutional restraints upon [executive power, may well alarm those who have reposed, as we have done, upon the faith that the people can wisely govern themselves. Postponing, however, for the present, the in quiry into the causes of our defeat, a more ur gent question is to be answered—“What are W’E NOW TO DO?” Short as is the question, we give it the an swer, still shorter, which we believe every true Whig finds already on his tongue, and we say Persevere.” It is true we have lost one battle, and that a great battle; but we had gained many, and others remain to be fought, and must have been fought, even if we had been victorious in this. The result of the New York election does not change the nature of the controversy, nor cir cumscribe its limits. It is still a struggle for li berty against arbitrary power. It is still a con test for the Constitution and the Lows- a„j is still waging and to be waged in every SiJ of the Union. J iate It does not, then, settle the cont^versy r. may make the issue more doubtful—it may nJ1 ly excite our fears and diminish our hopes the end is not yet. If the claim to power shin be so far acquiesced in, as that the President shall either cause himself to be elected for third term, or appoint a successor of his own nomination, then, indeed, the object now So ambitiously, and hitherto so successfully pu, sued, will be attained. Two years, ho’we\>r lie between us and the consummation of these projects: they cannot be years of inactivity ar.d must not be of despair. There are one hundr^l and seventy thousand free born American Whig, in this Slate, who will never quail betore uncon stitutional power, nor strike their flag to decnot ism. Many other States are with us by stVon* majorities. Nearly the whole West is on nu‘ side, a great part of the South and of the East together with a respectable poition of the Cen tre. Eminent success has attended the causea|. most every where throughout the country. |t jj not, then, for the Wines OF New York to think either of surrendering or disbanding. Surely., surely not. By those principles to which they have pledged themselves, and for which they have just made so gallant a struggle—by a;i they owe to the true Sons of Liberty in other States—by their sacred obligations to the Con stitution, they are bound to stand firmly toge ther, to shew themselves equal to the crisis and meet new dangers with new spirit, and a more determined and ardent resolution. This. think, is their duty, and this, w e doubt not, u their purpose. We hear on all sides the avow al of a fixed and determined intention, and most earnestly approve and commend if. Let us assure our friends every where that, with our whole strength, and our latest breath! we will struggle for the Liberty and Constitution of the Country—that no defeat can discourage us—no danger daunt, no power corrupt, us. With them we will continue to act, to suffer, and to dure, till the fullness of time shall come for the restoration of the Government of thr laws. We are not horn to be slaves. We are not born to be manworshippers—we are not born to the disgrace of voluntarily surrendering our country to the misrule of a violent and selfish cabal, or to the usurpations of Executive pre rogative. Let the contest, then, he renewed; or, rather, let it still go on in every county, town ship, village, and hamlet of the State; and while Liberty ot Speech, and of the Press, and the right of Suffrage yet prevail, let is never lit DOWN THE ARMS WE HAVE TAKEN IT IN THEUl'it of Constitutional Liberty. Extra Allowances.—In a speech made last week to his constituents by Samuel McD. Moore, the representative in Congress from the Rock bridge district, he developed many of the abuses of the Post Office Department, and compared its present dilapidated state to the prosperou* condition in which Judge McLean hud left it— and stated that the extra allowances made to many of the contractors reminded him of an anecdote told of a certain tailor, whomadea coat for one of his customers of two yards of cloth, and remarked that this was a sufficient quantity, for he made his son Billy a waistcoat out of it also; hut when the customer came the second time with the same quantity of cloth, the tailor observed it was not enough. WhyP asked the customer—“ when I brought you two yards for my last coat, you said you had enough for my coat, and that you made a waistcoastout of it also for your son Billy. Pm sure I haven't grown larger.” “Ah.” replied the tailor, it’s true you haven’t grown larger, nor your cloth 1 ess— but it would astonish you to see how much my son Hilly has grown.” The “Hives Family.”—We learn from lhf the se cond grade, upon a brother-in-law—and a ca det’s appointment on a nephew. These,Cm* G. thought, were marks of favor calculated to i bind every member of the family to theca## of the administration. There was no resisting such an argument, and its effect was prodig‘0* Oct at last.—The Globe has, after a vtr5 serious time, been delivered of the result of Ohio Election for members of the Legislature* The child is horn, and “been christened“—n(f Anthony—but Amalgamation!” There* l°r you! There is, says the Globe, in the Gfuo Legislature, “an Amalgamation majority. 12.” “Amalgamation quotha! “A ro^c ty any other name would smell as sw eet.” Virginia Temperance Convention.—M e from the Charlottesville Advocate, that the ginia Temperance Convention, lately conven at that place, adjourned on Saturday, the W The Advocate further informs us, that more than twenty resolutions were adopted, asserting principles more or loss important, and more less connected with the Temperance reform* tion, besides others of a detached character Among the former is one which, after a co0 densed and vivid enumeration of the misch# resulting from ardent spirit, concludes by daring the making and vending of it to be mo rally wrong. To silence the objection# 0 which this resolution, taken alone, might affor a pretext, another was adopted, recogniz^ I

Jackson loss since 1832, 1,957. But if tried by arty other test than the vote for Go remor, the Jackson loss is more than double that number of votes. The aggregate vote for the Whig Congressmen, at the recent election, b supposed to have exceeded that of the Jack son candidates, by six or eight thousand.— This shews the actual change in Ohio. Murder of Perry.—We understand that an individual is now in prison on suspicion of being the perpetrator of the murder of William Perry, on the evening of the Ward Elections. He was arrested by High Constable Garrigues, on Sa turday last, in the vicinity of Lancaster, Pa.; had a partial examination yesterday morning be fore the Mayor, and was committed for a fur ther hearing It appears that suspicion has rested on him for some time, and Mr. Garrigues vasin pursuit of him in the same neighborhood about two weeks since.

It is added that, at the time of writing tiie •-'ter :i!':een twenty persons were missing— Opposed to have been lost with the boat!—.V. Y. Com. bir Joshua Reynolds used to relate an anec '"te of a venison feast, at which were assembled Jjunv who much enjoyed the repast. He ad his conversation to one of the company. nr. M-. but could not get a single word in an v*er> until at length his silent neighbour, turn nStohim, said, “Mr. Reynolds, whenever you lr,> at a venison feast 1 advise you not to speak •bile at dinner, as endeavoring to answer your Question, 1 have swallowed a fine piece of fat en hte without tasting its flavor.” Thhi. or CornrEBFEiTER.—We learn from ft?Lewisburg Alleghanian, tli^t Alexander De was arraign M hefore the late Superior '■ourt of Monroe County, (JinlgcJ. E. Brown, ?*>.,siding.) on two bills of indictment, charging with passing a counterfeit 10 note of the U. Bank, and a note of the like amount of the 'waters' Rank uf Virgina. A demurrer was fil I to it** first indictment, assigning various Ci'ises. but the principle andjmost important ob J*ction made by the prisoner’s counsel, was j variance between the note described the indictment and in the evidence. The, ,a was described as “a banknote of the .ln* of the United States,” whereas that of- i in evidence purported to be a note‘‘pro- j !fn*to pay to order, or R. Smith,” Jtc. signed Biddle, Prest., Wm. Mcllvaine, Cashr.” I. b**ut the indorsement of R. Smith on its buck, *as extended by the prisoner that this was a note, but a check, which, not being Ofsed, was incomplete, not negotiable, not Kr!hl!7^’ ant*»even tf it had been correctly de 'n,^e indictment, was not such a paper counterfeiting of w hich a prosecution B)aH lC' regarding the points e novel and difficult, wished to adjourn the General Court; and the prisoner’s; ‘^l objecting, he overruled their objection, i The only difficulty with the Judge was, whether this was such a paper, as, it genuine, the Bank would be compelled to pay. A bank note is a note payable to A. B. or bearer, which requires no endorsement, whereas the note offered in evidence was of a different character. On the supposition, however, that it was such paper as; the Bank would be forced to redeem, the Judge ordered the prisoner to be put upon his trial.— Other objections were then made as to the j variance between the indictment and the evidence, which were sustained by the Court, and upon which the prisoner stood acquitted.— On the second indictment, also, similar objec tions, as to the variance between the note de scribed and that offered in evidence, were made and sustained: whereupon application was made for the prisoner’s discharge; but the Judge refus ed to discharge him, and remanded him to jail to await a new indictment. The prisoner’s counsel contended that the prisoner was entitled to his discharge, inasmuch as the jury was empannel led and sworn in both cases, when the question arose, and rendered a verdict of “not guilty.” The Court insisted on the correctness of its comse, hut ordered the prisoner to bo released from confinement on entering into recognizance before a justice of the peace, himself in $1000, and one security in §1000, or two in §300, to appear at the next term.

COMMUNICATED.] Extract of a letter, recently written, by a native of the Old Dominion. “The returns of Elections this morning from Pennsylvania and New Jersey, are contradic tory; but 1 believe both States have gone for Jackson. It has become very much a matter of indifference to me. I have seen so much of northern politics, that J can, with propriety, compare the parties (as far as relates to the South at least) to the swarm of flics on the fox, in the fable: it is only driving ofF one swarm, for another, more hungry, to take their places.— When I speak of the parties, I mean the leaders of them; for the North—and particularly the Middle States, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and some of the Western States—are governed by the mob. or the leaders of the mob. Look at the election in Philadelphia, when it was almost as much as a man’s life was worth, to deposite his vote; and then the winding up fire-arms used, IS or 20 men wounded, 2 or 3 killed, and 5 houses burnt to the ground! Can that be called the free and unbiassed voice of the people? Each party charges the other with commencing the fray; and it would certainly puzzle more than one Philadelphia lawyer to decide which was most to blame. Assuredly 1 would be glad should the If/u'gs succeed, be cause I believe their principles better; but the South has but little to expect from either party, and must take care of themselves. To do this, they must stand by each other, and maintain that “Suit ifcation is the Rightful Remedu;" for “to that complexion we must come at last.” [C.
