was present at the reduction of St.Lucie and.St.Kitts, and.for their conduet in these engagements received very honorable mention.It likewise took an important parf, while acting as marines on board Lord Rodney\u2019s fleet, in the brilliant victory obtained by that Admiral over the Count de Gras, on April 12, 1782, for which services a vote of thanks was passed by Parliament, and received special permission to add the honorable badge of an embroidered laurel on the colors and on the straps of the officers\u2019 epaulets.The regiment returned to Ireland in 17858, where it remained till 1793.At the commencement of the revolutionary war, in 1793, the 69th was ordered.jo the West Indies again ; but the destination being changed, it proceeded to the Mediterranean, in company with.the fleet commanded by Lord Hood.Was present at the surrender.of Toulon, and was several times engaged with the enemy during the ocoypation of Toulon by the British, being \u2018particularly conspicuous in driving the French from -the heights of Tara, and in the capture of Fort La Breanne.From Toulon the regiment proceeded to the Island of Corsica, and was engaged under Gen.Dundas, in reducing Martella Fort, in- Martella Bay, in 1794, the obstinate defence of which caused .the erection of similar forts on the coast of England.Detachments were also sent to Elba, from whence they were mo%ed, in February, 1794, to St.Fiorenzo, and were engaged in the capture of the works that defended the harbor.The regiment afterwards gecompanied Lord Hood to Bastia, where it was severely engaged.On this occasion Capt.Clarke lost lis arm by a cannon-ghot in reconnoitering the enemy's works, in company with.Admiral Lord (then Capt.Nelson).In October, same year, thfee \u2018detachments from the regiment embarked on hoard the Britgnnia, Agamemnon, and Courageux, to act as marines ; apd.were engaged in Lord Nelson\u2019s action and capture of the Qa-Ira, 84-gun ship, and Censeur, 74, in April, nes, * In May, 1195, a 8nd battalion was formed ot Hilsea, and, when completed, sailed for Gribraliar, and landed there in the June following, where it was stationed until the remainder of the, 1st battalion came down the Mediterranean, from ; Corsioa, and joined it, when the 2nd was incorporated with «the st battalion.The regiment was ordered to England, and.while on their way home were capfured off Cadiz by a French squadron, when Capt, O'Doherty, the senior officer, QUEBEC CITY, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 12, 1870.PRICE, FOUR CENTS.sunk the colors of the regiment to prevent their falling into the enemy\u2019s hands ; but shortly after, the vessel having struck, gallantly returned to Gibraltar in possession of the ship and the whole of his men.At Gibraltar, the 1st battalion became 1300 effective by the consolidation of the 2nd battalion: In February, 1796, the 66th and 69th Regiments landed at Port-au-Prince, in the West Indies, to take part in the expedition against St.Domingo, and were soon attively engaged against the enemy, and drove them from their Position to the hills, During their two years\u2019 stay in the West Indies, the mortality was frightful, the 69th having in that time lost 25 officers and 1,000 men, when they were ordered to Epgland.The detachments which had been left on board the fleet in the Mediterranean, consisting of 300 men, which had never joined the regiment gf Gibraltar, wereengaged in Sir Jolly Jervis\u2019s (afterwards Earl St.Vincent) action, on the: Mth February, 1797, off Cape St.Vinceat, When a party under the command of Lieut.Pearson had the hônor to serve onboard the Captain, 74 (Commodore Nelson), in her severe conflict with the Santissimag Trinidada, of 136 guns.In boarding the San Nicholas, Private John Asheroft.particularly distinguished himself by striking.¥he Spanish and.hoisting the British.colour, before the boarders had established themselves on the deck of that ship; and Private (afterwards Quastermaster) Stevens broke the upper guarter-gallery-window, and jumped in, followed by Nelson himself, and by others, as.fast.as .possible.The unparalleled exploit of boarding and: capturing two line-of-battle ships at once, the one across the other, is thus described by the great Hero himself, and appears in Allen's Life of Nelson : ) Co \u201cThe San Nicholas luffing up, the San Josef fell aboard of her, and the Captain resumed her station abreast of them and close alongside.At this time, the Captain having lost her foretopmast, not a sail, shroud, or rope left, lier wheel shot away, and, incapable of further service in the line or in chase, I directed the helm to be put a-starboard, and, calling for.the boarders, ordered them to board.\u201cThe soldiers of the 69th regiment, with an alacrity which will ever do them credit, and Lieut.Pearsan, of the samg regiment, were amongst the foremost in this service.\u201cThe first man who jumped into the enemy\u2019s mizen chains was Captain Berry, late my First Lieutenant.\u201c A soldier of the 69th Regiment having broken the upper gallery-window, jumped in, followed by myself and others as fast as possible.I found the cabin doors fastened, ard the Spanish officers fired their pistols at.us, through the windows ; but having burst open the doors, the soldiers fired, and the Spanish brigadier (commodore with\u2019 distinguishing pennant) fell, as retreating to the quarter-deck: 1 passed with my people and Lieut.Pearson, on the.larbaafd | gangway to the forecastle, where I met two or three Spanish officers, prisoners to my seamen, and they delivered me their swords.At this moment, a fite of pistols, or muskets, opening from the Admiral's\u2019 stern-gallery in the San Josef, .I directed the soldiers to fire into her stern.Ordering more men into the San Nicholas, | directed my brave fellows to board the first-rate, the San Josef, which was done in an instant.And on the quarter-deck of a Spanish first-rate (extravagant as the story may seem) did I receive the swords of the vanquished Spaniards.I was surronnded by Captain Berry, Lieut.Pearson (69th regiment), John Sykes, John Thompson, Francis Cook, and William Fearney, all old \u201c« Agamemnons,\u201d antl several other brave men, soldiers and sailors.Thus fell their ships.\u2018The Victor, passing, saluted us with three cheers, as did every ship in the.fleet.\u201d In the year 1799, the regiment joined the expedition .to Holland, under Sir Ralph Abercrombie, and on its landing near the Texel, on August 27th, were warmly engaged with the enemy before the main body of the army had landed, where they lost fifteen rank and file.They remained in Holland until November of the same year, and sailed for Jamaica in July, 1800, where.it sustained very severe losses from climate influences, and returned home in June, 1802.In 1803, on the embodying of the army of reserve by the operation of the Additional Force Bill, the 1st battalion.was completed to 1,200 effectives, and a 2nd.battalion of 750.men raised for the service of the British Isles.The 1st battalion sailed from Portsmouth for.the East Indies on the 8th March, and arrived at Madras on the 13th July, 1805.In 1806, four companies, under the command of Major Coates, detached from head-quarters at Fort St.George, formed the whole European [force at Vellore, and severely suffered in the serious mutiny which broke out amongst the native troops in that fortress on the night of the 10th of July, 18086.Itappears that this mutiny was principally formed in the 1st regimentof Madras Native Infantry, the chief partof whom were Mussulmen.A party of this regiment, told off for the purpose, were marched down to the main guard, which was partly composed of Europeans,\u2018at about midnight ; and as soon as it approached sufficiently near to give assistance, if necessary, the Sepays of the main guard, who had previously loaded their firelocks privately, immediately shot all the Europeans of the guard.Having oblained possession of the magazine and arsenal, {he mutineers were enabled to serve ammunition lo the Sepoys, who were engaged in firing into the 69th barracks; they also mounted same field-pieces with ropes.At, the windows of an unaçoupied barrack, used as a depository: for ardnance stores, over which there was only one Sepoy sentry, and opened a fire upon the barrack of the 69th regiment, which were opposite, and within a distance of 20 yards.The Europeans, taken by surprise, whilst naked and unarmed, sheltered themselves from the fire in the best.manner they could ; they, however, kept possession of:the barrack-gate, from which they made.some.successful sallies.The mutineers then brought forth Futtah Hyder, the sétond son of \u2018Tippoo Sahib (supposed to be the, only one of thy \u2018princes implicated in this plot), proclaimed him in the palace-square as Sultan, and then hoisted the standaid of -Tippoo \u201con «the.flagstaff of the Fort, * : In the mean time, some of the officers made a rush from their quarters to the barracks, and, being assisted by the soldiers within, broke a window, by which they entered ; and rallying about 150 men, they sallied forth, and gained the ramparts, which were close by, and, commanded by Captain Barrow, they fought their way towards a cavalier at one angle of the fort, which they gained and letPa party in possession of ; while the remainder drove the mulineers along the rampart to the gate, behind which were some houses, where they effected a lodgment, which secured their post.A party of sixty men then pushed boldly along the ramparts, and, after some hard fighting, gained the flag\u2019staff; but the standard being nailed to the staff, a soldier of the 69th, named Philip Bottom, mounted the pole, under a heavy fire of muskelry, and tore it down.This was the state of affairs when Colonel Gillespie, commanding 19th Dragoons, arrived from Arcot with a squadron of that regiment ; finding the gate in possession of the 69th, he caused himself to be hoisted upon the ramparts, and assuming the command, kept possession of the rampart and the gateway until the arrival of the remainder of the 19th Dragoons with their gallopers or light guns, when he ordered the gate to be blown open, and the 19th Dragoons to charge into the fort.A strong resistance was at first made by the mautineers ; but the king\u2019s troops were eventually successful, and regained possession of the fort, The General Orders issued by Government, however, after the minutest inquiry into all the cirenmstances attending this unhappy event, most clearly explain the perfidious intention of the insurrection, and at the same time convey a high, sense of the firmness displayed by the troops in subduing it.The following extracts, relative to the subject of the present memoir, are worthy of record : \u2018 UENERAL ORDERS OF GOVERNMENT, \u201c24th July, 1808.* While, however, the mutineers were successful in accomplishing the death of the commanding officer of the garrison, and of many other valuable officers and men, it pleased Providence to permit that their disastrous progress should be arrested by the efforts of Lhe brave troops of His Majesty's 69th regiment, who were go fortunate as to be enabled to elude apd resiet the mnrderous intentions of the mutineers, until the arrival of sucoours which were hastened to their relief.\u201d ; Extract of a letter from Colonel GiLieseie, H.M.19th Dragoons, dated 20th July, 1806 : \u201cColonel Gillespie begs leave to state, in a summary manner, to His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief, the sentiments he entertains of the meritorious conduct of the troops under his command, as well as that of the remains of H.M.69th Regiment, who composed the garrison of Vellore on the 10th instant.To the officers of the 69th Regiment, who in the early part of the insurrection assembled their men to make head against the barbarous enemy who were attacking them on all sides, too much praise cannot be given; and Colonel Gillespie has particularly to regret that.the gallant exertions of Captains Barrow and McLachlan, Lieut.Mitchell and other wounded officers, were tpo soon ton to the : regiment, from those officers being, unfortunately, so early in the day.isabled \u201cThe remains of this valnable corps fought gallantly for several hours without an officer ; and the Colonel begs leave to express his admiration at their undaunted resolution.Colonel Gillespie cannot help mentioning, in terms of the highest approbation, Sergeant Bready, of the;69th regiment, who so bravely followed him in the sally from the ramparts, and drove the enemy from their lurking places, previous to the charge of the cavalry.\u201d : # GENERAL ORDERS\u2019 BY GOVERNMENT.\u201c 2nd September, 1806.\u201cThe Right Honorable the Governor in Council having received from the Commander-in-Chief a particular report of the gallantry displayed by Sergeant McManus and Private Philip Bottom, 69th Regiment, duriug tbe insurrection at Vellore, in pulling down the colours of the late Sultan of Mysore from the flag-staff of that fortress, under a severe fire, His Lordship in Council is pleased to testify his approbation of their conduct, by grantingla rewardjof 60 pagodas to the sergeant, and 20 pagodas Lo the private.\u201d « Exlract from the Minules in Councilfin the Military Department, dated 19th September, 1806.\u201c Resolved, \u2014That the satisfaction expressed by the Commander-in-Chlef, in regard to the conduct of the delachment of lhe 69th Regiment stationed at Vellore, during tbe late insurrection in that garrison, bo particularly noticed to the Honorable Company of Directors.\u201cA trae extract, \u201c(Signed,)s GQ.STRACHEY, \u201c Secretary to the Government.\u201d Return of Killed and Wounded of His Majesty's 69th Regiment, Vellore, July 10th, 1806 : Capts.Sublts, 8ergts.Corple.Drms.Privates, Killed.0 2 6 4 1 70 Wounded .2 1 1 1 0 74 NAMES OF OFFICERS KILLED AND WOUNDED.Rilled :-\u2014Lieutenants Popham and Eley.Wounded :\u2014Captains Barrow and MeLacblao, and Lieutenant Mitohell.The 691h formed the main British force under the Hon.Lt.Col.St.Ledger, which dislodged the enemy which the Rajah of Travancore had assembled behind fortified works by the * Arambooly Gate, and which they carried by escalade on February 20, 1809.They also defeated ihe enemy at the villages of Kolar and Nagra-Coil, and dispersed their forces ; when hostilities having ended, the regiment returned to the cantonment of Wallajahabad.On the 28th of April, 1810, the regiment embarked with the expedition against the Island of Bourbon, and in this - expedition composed a part of the 3rd brigade, under the command of Lt.-Col.McLeod, of the 69th, which was detailed to attack St.Marias, when, after some brisk fighting, the Island of Bourbon surrendered to His Majesty.The attack on the Island of France was the next engagement in which the 69th figured, where, after a slight resistance on the part of the enemy, the Mauritius were finally ceded to His Majesty, on Dec.30th, 1810.For the distinguished services in this expedition, the 69th bears on its Colours the word « Bourbon.\u201d The regiment returned to India in 1811, arrived at Madras on Feb.8th in that year, and joined the expedition preparing against Batavia, under Sir Samuel Auchmuly, and were .engaged .in.all the.principal contests against the enemy\u2019 previous to the grand attack on their strongly-e position.The main body of the army moved ta a advance, and the 69th became the leading column in pursuit and a large detachment thereof formed the picquet on Aug.22nd, when at daylight the enemy made a sortie on the British lines, mortally wounding Lieut.-Col.Clarges.In the general attack on Fort Cornelius, six companies of the 60h performed many feats of gallantry in carrying the enemy\u2019s works, but with the loss of that\u201d experienced officer in command, Lieut.-Col.McLeod.For the distinguished part the 69th Regiment took in the conquest of Java, during a succession of most brilliant operations, when the enemy\u2019s army was defeated and destroyed, and for its gallantry thereat, was permitted by the Prince Regent to bear on it word « Java.\u201d g .8 Colours the - After these services, the 1st battalion of the 69h Regiment sailed for India, and\u2019 landed at Cabo, in the island of Goa on the 7th December, 1811.On the 18th March, 1813 they embarked for Tellicherry, where they landed on the 17th, and marched for Seringapatam, a distance of 130 miles.On the 13th Dec., 1813, the 2nd battalion embarked for Holland, and arrived at Williamstadt on the 25th of the same month.Throughout the various operations preceding the attack on Bergen-op-Zoom\u2014viz., in.the attack on Mergin, when 300 prisoners were captured; bombardment of the feet at Antwerp, and movements on Fort Frederick and Sius, under Major-General Skerritt, the regiment was much engaged.In the attack on Bergen-op-Zoom, on the 8th March, 1814 the regiment lost 2 officers, 6 sergeants, and 36 rank and file : 2 officers, 4 sergeants, and 56 rank and file, wounded, Ensign Ryan carried a six-gun battery with a party from the grenadier company.The regiment afterwards returned 10 Antwerp (Major Muttlebury being immediately after rewarded by a Brevet Lieut.-Coloneley), where it remained until the spring of 1815, when it went from Ath to Horrens.Waterloo became the next scene of action.In the affairs of the 16th June, 1815, at Quatre-Bras, the 2nd battalion formed part of the division commanded by Lieutenant-General Charles Alten, and was in the brigade commanded by Major-General Sir Colin Halket.The regiment marched from Soignies about 2 o'clock in the morning, and came into action about three o\u2019clock in the afternoon, having marched 25 English miles.Soon after coming into action, it was ordered to support the division of Lieutenant-General Sir Thomas Picton, and moved to the left for that purpose.Sir Thomas Picton ordered the battalion to be halted in close column.The Prince of Orange just .afterwards came up and directed it to be deployed into line; while in the act of deploying (the three right companies being formed in line, and the eighth company covering the deployment, as the light infantry wasdetached with a brigade of light companies), Kellerman\u2019s brigade of French cuirassiers, who had been under cover of a rye-field, taking advantage of this critical position, succeeded in cutting through the battalion, but were partially checked by a sharp discharge from the companies formed in line.The regiment suffered materially, losing 150 men and one siandard, Captain Lindsay, and Lieuts.Pigot, Sie wart, Busteed, and Wightwick, were severely wounded ; the latter died a few days afterwards, Volunteer J.Clarke, attached to the regiment, received twenty-two sabre-wounds.This gallant.young man succeeded in killing the three first cuirassiers who attacked him before he was himself cut dowm; on his recovery, he was promoted to an Ensigncy in the 42nd Regiment, for his gallant conduct.17ru suse, 1815, The regiment rallied in a very short time, and again bore its share in the action.On the 17th it formed part of the rear-guard which covered the retirement of that part of the army to which it belonged.WATERLOO\u201418TH JUNE, 1815, On the 18th, they were warmly engaged in the right centre of the line, and were repeatedly charged by the enemy\u2019s cavalry.The regiment was opposed for a considerable time to the French Imperial Guards, whom they charged when the general advance of the line took place, Total killed and wounded on the 16th, 17th, and 18th June, 1815 : Lt-Col.Capis.Lts.Esge.Sgte Drms Rank & File.Killed.\u2026.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.ol 3 1 0 4 0 41 Wounded.0 2 3 2 7 1 155 Missing .0 0 0 0 0 2 13 The honorable badge of distinction, \u201c Waterloo,\u201d was permitted by the Prince-Regent to be borne on the colours and appointments of the regiment, in consequence of their gallant and meritorious conduct in the actions of ihe\u2019 17th and *18th June, 1815.In June, 1817, the regiment again proceeded on service, under command of Col.Pitzler, ia company with the 30th, 53rd, and 84th Regiments, and were present during three years and a-half in all the arduous operations connected with the Southern Mahratta wars ; at the taking of the Hill Forts of Singhur, Poundee, Worsottah, and Côpäul Drong, and the storming of the Pettah of Sholapoor.The regiment then left for Cannonore, on the Malabar coast, where it arrived on 17th Nov., 1818, and there remained until 5th February, 1828, when it commenced its march across the Peninsula of India, a distance of 884 miles,Jand reached Wallajahabad on 23rd.March, and embarked for England on 16th October, 1825, For the services of the 69th in India, from 1802 to 1822\u2014a period of twenty years\u2014during which they had seen a great amount of fighting, they were rewarded with the:distinguished privilege of bearing the word * India\u201d on their Coloars, as a .mark of Royal favour.The 69th was stationed Ih.England and Ireland from 1826 to Nov., 1831, when it sailed for the West Indies, and was stationed in detachments in the island of St.Vincent until its removal to Demerara, in 1885, Shortly after the removal of the 69th from St.Vincent, the following resolution was passed by the House of Assembly of that island, and transmitted by the Speaker to Major Brooks, in command of the regiment, which speaks volumes for the discipline and bearing of the regiment: « That the thanks of this House be conveyed to Lieut.Colonel Sir Charles Cuyler, Baronet, ot the officer last present commanding the 69th Regiment, expressive.of the high opinion they entertain of the gentlerhanly, soldierlike, and orderly conduct of the officers, non.commissioned officers, and privates of that corps, during the period of their forming the garrison of this island ;

1870.sx SEE FIRST PAGE.re WAR TOPICS.A gool deal has been said since the news of the French defeat at Haguenau, ubout Napoleou's lack of decision having Leen the cause of the disaster.We have already expressed our opinion that this defect in the Emperor may have had sowe- thing to do with the defeat of his army, Lut that Prussian military skill and Lravery were the chief instraments in that result we are equally well satisfied.Kinglake, in his history of the Crimean war, favors the popalar estimate of this peculiarity of Napoleon's character.Certainly, he says, it would appear that the Emperor louis Napoleon, more than most men, was ucenstomed to linger in doubt between two conflicting plans, and to delay his final adoption of the one, and his final rejectior of the other, for as long a time as possible.in order to find out what might be best t Ire uitimately done by carrying où experi- rents for many months together with two rival schemes of action.If the telegraph reports truly.liowever, it would appear taat bis mind is folly made up on one thing, snd that is, that he will never again retaru to Paris, unless as & congnerar.Chalons, where Napoleon now has his lheadquarters, is about 80 miles in the rear of the line of the Moselle, and 90 miles it.a straight line from Paris.Metz and Nancy are 30 miles apart.and each 170 miles in a straight live from Paris.By railroad, however, their distance from the capital is much greater.The Strasbourg trank line passes through Nancy and \u2018halons, the distance of the former place from Paris being by rail about 220 miles.Metz is situated on a branch of the same road, which forks a few miles north-west of Nuney, and its distance from the capital by rail is about 240 miles, The Forces at Metz are estimated at 130,000.The available troops of Canro- bert at Nancy do not number more thau 50,000.The most that conld be brought into battle at Metz by the French would scem from their own statement to be not more thau 200,000, including Ladmérault's corps at Thionville, Agalust this force the Prussians oppose equal if not superior numbers.The battle which is now impending will probably prove the decisive one of the campaign.If the French left is broken as its right and centre were at Haguenau, the route to Paris will be open to the Prussians.The fact of Napeleon\u2019s having changed commanders on the eve of a fresh battle bodes little good for him.It brings to mind one of those facetions suyings of Abraham Lincoln, who objected to such a conrse, on the ground that it was folly to swup liorses while crossing a stream.It wiil lie seen by the despatches of yesterday that a clean sweep has likewise been made of the Ollivier ministry, whether for better or \u2018or worse seems to be a controverted point.Poor Ollivier, he has evidently been a mere tool in the Emperor's hands from first to lust, and now, to propitiate the public clamoar, he is pitched overboard as many another faithful servant bas been under similar circumstances.Stirring intelligence may be expected by Monday at the latest, we think.The Bonapartes have always attached great importance to particular days; and Monday, being the Emperors fête day, may be seized upon as a favorable opportunity for rekindling the ean of his troops, and making a desperate effort to snatch victory from the grasp of the Prussians.We shall see.DROUGHT IN TWO COUNTRIES.There has been a very severe drought in Frauce during several weeks past, aad the editor of the Journal de I Agriculture after publishing many letters in regard to it, remarked that Europe has not for two centuries suffered so long a drought.In the cities water is parsimoniously distributed.Tennants are warned against waste.In many villages the peuple have ceased to perform their ordinary abintions.It is a custom of the country to wash clothing only at long iutervals, say quarterly or semi-annually.This washing can wait.The peasants pride themselves on the possession of large (uantities of linen and white goods, and when a neighhbourhood does its washing, the country looks as if it had been snowed upon.The washing avd drying and ironing are quite a neighbourhood and co-operative affair.The drought breeds disquiet, and social questions sre discussed.While France suffers in this way, America has been by no means cx- empt.Particularly in the Eastern States has the sun sent down his rays with unrelenting impartiality.The Boston Advertiser gays : \u2018\u2018 The numerous rivers and lakes of Maine have not been able to irrigate her parched soil, and her pines bow before the heat which they ought to defy.Even the mountains of New Hompslire have poorly rewarded the tourist.The dwellers on the highest peaks look to the mercury in despair, while from the glens and vales, which are usually swept by the coolest breezes, and washed by the coolest streoms, come stories of streams that have ceased to run, and of breezes hot with the air of the South.Vermont, whose very nume is significant of perennial freshness, of fields that never fade, of flowers that never wither, is resigned to the dispensation for which her antiquaries can find no parallel in their records ot their recollections.Massachusetts has not escaped ; from all parts of the States we hear of wasted meadows, of dying crops, of disheartened farmers.The rich valley through which the Connecticut finds its way to the ses, und the coast of Rhode Island, swept by the winds of the ocean, have no report but of excessive heat and prostrated crops.Conuectieut is, visited with a premature autumn.\u201d THE QUEBEC GAZETTE, FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 12, 1870.THE HON.JOSEPH HOWE, Ta the absence of more engrossing topics, says the Leader, the St.John (N.B.) papers are discussing an incident that recently oe- eyrred at Fredericton, where some commotion was caused by the arrest of the Hon.Joseph Howe just us le was stepping on board a steamboat to return to St.John.The cause of the arrest, it appears, was the refusal of Mr.Howe to psy a cabman named Tower the sum of §3 which he dewnanded for driving Mr.Howe to Government-bouse and other places in Fredericton.A merchant of the town pledged himself as security for the money, and Mr.Huwe was permitted to proceed on Lis voyage.It subsequently transpired that Mr.Howe had instructed the clerk of the hotel where he was staying to settle with the cabman, that the clerk offered him $1 50, which he cousidered aufficient for his services, and that the cabman, with the cupidity of his kind, demanded double the amount, and, failing to receive it, proceeded to the wharfand caused Mr.Howe to be arrested.The grave question now agitating the press of St, John is, whether Mr.Howe acted like a \u2018gentleman\u2019 in refusing to pay the $3 at the risk of causing a scandal by his arrest.LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.Beruer Services.\u2014The Bethel services in connection with the City Mission

age.His crime is kidnapping children.He standa in the cage with his head through a hole in the top, hie toes barely touching the flooring.Thousands gather around him every day, laughing and jeering at him where he stands with his ankles chained together and his hands tied behind him, Some one had rut a few bits of broken bricks in the cage, and at times he would iry, by standing tiptoes on one foot, to bring the broken brioks together with the other, as he could raise himself up a little, and ease the weight from bis neck, He made rather poor work of it, as he could not see the pieces, and had to direct his movements by the sense of touch only.His sufferings muet be greut, a4 he has been standing more than seventy hours.Another man that wpe cpged up the same way lived about aix days, oated, but not until serious damage accrued.\u2019 THE INFALLIBILIPY DOGMA.GRAND CEREMUNY OF PROCLAMATION, [Correspondence of the London Time:.] À great event may commund attention from its very failure ot success, just as u spectacle announced with a flourish vf trumpets may from the very absence of all the attractions expected create u far greater sensation than if it Lad been clothed with ull that constitutes the grandiose.So it was with the ceremony ot the proclamation of the first Dogina of the Church in the Council Hall of St.Peter's ves.terday morning.For two years that Dogma has agitated the whole Christian world, awakening passions that were anything tut Christian.Fur nearly four months its definition has been waffed tur with breathless anxiety, and its proclamation, it wus thought, would give rise to une of the grandest spectaclea which the Roman Church had ever witnessed.The direct reverse has Leen tlie case.As a apectucle it was meagre.in the extreme, everything was poor and devoid of feeling, none of those effects «were attempted which Rome knows so well how to get up, aud those who went to gaze must have been miserably disappointed.So much for what strikes the eye; but yet more deplorable were the moral aspects of the scene.The unity of the Church ! where was it yesterday?It was seen to be divided against itself.Some of the fathers were tlying iu all directions of the compass as fast as stemin power could carry them, Others were making their preparations for leaving, while those resolved on working that marvellous miracle of investing adnan with the powers of Gol astembled in their hall depressed and thoughtful.Division was evident in the unoccupied seats of the Fathers, and there were many such; and if after this the unity of the Church is affirmed, it must be atthe expense of all honesty.Truth and hypocrisy will have become interchang- able terms.There is a schism in Rome, and that was the most striking feature in the moral aspect of the scene I witnessed yesterday.Still, the festa was great from its very littleness, and [ must now show this by entering more into details.Let me begin with the vigil of the fete.It thundered and lightened all night, and it rained in the morning.When I went down to St.Peter's on the 8th December the very doors of Heaven seemed to have been opened, and we were nearly washed out of our carriages.Yesterday, too, instead of a bright Roman sky, and brilliant burning syn, we had what may be called the storm of the season.Thus, the opening and the closing of the Council\u2014 the closing, at least, for the present\u2014were marked by a violent revolution of the elements.The doors were not opened before half-past 7 o'clock, and as I drove down at that hour the streets were comparatively empty.A solitary cab or two were rumbling in the same direc- tion\u2014a few priests and students were hurrying through the rain, and the gallant Guards who let us pass unheeded, sat indolently on their horses, having no occasion to make a display.From four small houses T observed strips of crimson tapestry hanging outside the windows, and this was all the decoration to be seen from the centre of the city to the gutes of St.Peter.There was scarcely any person in the church \u2014no curious strangers, nc fussy Cuameriere d'onore, no soldiers even, and a cannon might have been fired from one end to the other without inflicting any harm, and so it wight have been for two hours after.A double line of troops was soon formed, and between thew, steadily or jauntily as the case might be, walked the Fathers, each going to the Hall, and taking his seat as he arrived.The laity, for whom all the blessings of the day were specially designed, looked over the ahoulders of the soldiers to observe the Bishops.It reminded me of one of the earlier congregatione, when the curious world came down to look at the gentlemen in red and green, or at the one in the blue dress, or at another whose robes were photographed all over with saints and flowers.There was amusement for the passing hour, and the spectators took care not to lose it, but there was no procession, and scarcely any one knew that the Pope had taken his seat until the shrill notes of the Vatican choir informed them of it.I looked around me and contrasted the appearance of this stupendous edifice, comparatively empty now, with that which it presented on the 8th of December last, when the multitude surged in like an ocean wave and cries rose from persons who were being nearly crushed to death.[I looked into the hall and saw the royal box occupied by only one or two ladies and a decayed officer with, it might be, the greatorder of San Januarius across his bosom.The diplomatic box, too, was nearly empty.I had been told on the previous evening, that both these privileged Tribune's would be ¢\u201c cleared\u2019 for ropalty had abandoned Rome for the season, and the Tepresentatives of all the great Powers had been instructed not to appear or dluminate.Many of the seats of tbe Fathers also were vacant certainly nearly 250, 130 or 140 prelates having abrented themselves ouly for the day.So both within and without the aspect was chilling and discouraging to the zealous.His Holiness, I am told by his friends, on entering was agitated, and trembled when he knelt 10 say his, prayers, but this passed off, his voice was firm and clear as [| have ever heard it, and his appearance became bright and cleer- ful.The mast was Buort, giving promise of an early closing, and then came those beautiful hymns of the Rowan Catholic Church, sung at intervals and never sung more effectively.First the Litany of the Sainta was chanted by the choir, taken up by the Fatliers, and carried as it were out of the Hall until it was lifted on high by the swelling voices of several thousands of persons who clustered around tha tomb of St.Peter.So it was with the ¢ Veni Creator.\u201d Apart from the essentially sweet and plaintive character of the music, the body of sound satisfied all one's desires, giving the assurance of sounething like sincerity and depth of feeling.*Now there was a lull, broken at last by the shrill voice of the Secretary reading the Dogma.The real business of the day had commenced, and the crowd about the door and around the baldacchino became more dense.It consisted of thie strictest set of the Infallibilists, and it is no exaggeration to say that more than two-thirds of those present were priests, monks, sisters of mercy, and the pupils of various schools, male and female, with not a few of those most uncharitable women called in Italy Piuzocchiore, or devout, on the lucus a mon lucendo principle.No wonder, therefore, that the music had been good where aj! joined, and that there was a rush to the door of fhe Hall to watch the operation of the coming mirscle.The reading of the Dogma was followed hy the roll call of the Fathers, and \u2018\u2018 Placet\u201d after \u2018\u2018 Placet\u201d followed, though not in very quick succession.They ivere uttered in bolder and louder tones than on former occasions, either that the echo was greater from the comparative emptiness of the chureh or thet the Fathers were pleased at being shorn, and gund their wuiterances there was a loud peal of thunder.The storm, which had been threatening all the morning, burst now with the utmost violence, and to many & euparstitious mind might have conveyed the idea that it was the expression of Divine wrath, as \u2018 no doubt it will be inter- reted by numbers,\u201d eaid one officer of the alatine Guard.And so the \u201c Placed\u2019 of the Fathers struggled through the storm, while thunder pealed above and the lightning flashed in at every winnow and down through the dome and every emaller cupolg, dividing if not abeorbing the attention of the crowd, \u2018\u201c Placet\u201d\u2019 shouted his Eminence or his Grace, and a loud clap of thunder followed in response, and then the lightniug darted about the Bal- dacchino and every part of the church and Conciliar-liall, as if announcing the response.So it continned for nearly one hour and a half, during which time the roll was being called, and a more effective scene I never witnessed, Had all the decoratoys and a}l the getters-up of ceremonies in Rome been employed, nothing approaching to the solemn splendour of that storm could have been prepared, and never will those who saw it and felt it forget the promulgation of the first dogma of the Church.he facade of the Hall had not been removed as on former occasions, only the great door was opened, so that it could scarcely be called an opsn Session, dnd people coyld get pH limpse of what was gomg on ouly ly strug ling fiercely and peering over one another's liouldera, or by stunding at a distance aud ooking through u glaes.1 chose this lust and better part.The storm was ut its height when the result of the voting was tuken upto the Pope, and the darkness was so thick that a huge taper was necessarily Lronght and placed by his eide as he read the words which invested him with Divine powers, \u2018 Nosque sucro approbante Concilio, ila ita accerninus, statuimus atque saucimus in lecta sunt.\u201d And again the lightuing flickered around (he hall, and the thunder pealed.I was standing penetrate the darkness which surrounded the Pope, when the sound na of a rushing mighty something, T could not tell what, caused me to start violently and look about me and above me.It might be a atorin of hail.Such for an instant was my impression; and it grew and swelled, and the whole mystery was revealed by a cloud of white handkerchiefs waving before me.The signal had been given by the Fathers themselves with clappings of hands.This was ny imaginary hail-storm; and it was taken up by the crowd outside the hall, and so the snow storm grew in violence until at length it came to where I stood, \u201c Viva il Papa Infallibile * \u201c Viva il trionfo dei Catholici,\u2019 shouted the zealots.Ah! you foolish, fat old monk, vou do not know what you are shouting about.You little think that you are rejoicing at a probable schism in the churel.But again the storm rose with greater violence than before, and I thonght that according to English custoni we were to have three times three.The Ze Deum and the Benedictions, however, put à stop tu it; the entire crowd fell on their knees as T lave never seen a crowd do in St.Peter's, and the Pope blessed them in those clear sweet tones distinguishable among a thousand.A third and fainter attempt was made to get up another cheer, but it died uway, and then priests and priestlings, monks andjlioly women, rushed down the nave to get perchance another peep at the Pope as he passed through the chapels, but the doora were closed and the Infallible was hidden from mortal view.Thus closed the session of the (Ecumenical Vatican Council for the present, not prorogued nor suspended, to meet again on the 11th of No vember.IMPORTANT GOLD DISCOVERY IN NOVA SCOTIA.The Halifax Citizen says :\u2014 After two years search, Mr.W.D.Hall has succeeded in discovering one of the most promising belts of au- riferous quartz and slate that has ever been found in this country.Indian reports of the existence of gold in the neighborhood of Beaver Dam, near Sheet Harbor, first led Mr.Hall to turn his attention to that district, where he soon found proof of the truth of the Indian reports, in large quantities of quartz boulders, some of them measuring about two feet thick, and showing as much guld as any that have ever been found in the province.Tracing these boulders in a northerly direction over a moderately sized hill, they were found to disappear at the foot of the northern declivity, near the edge of a swamp.Here Mr.Hall commenced driving a tunnel rix feet high and four feet wide, back into the hill, at a depth of about seven feet from the surface.He had not proceeded far with this work when he struck a beautiful vein of quartz nine inches thick, showing visible gold, and close to it (separated only by a thin slab of slate, not more than quarter of an inch thick) a small lead, one inch thick, but very rich\u2014to all appearance being capable of yielding at least from three to four ounces of gold per ton, Tunnelling a little further lie came upon a velt of mixed quartz i and slate measuring t~n feet in breadth, containing a number of rica qu.rtz leads, varying from fifteen inches to two inches thick, all showing the precious metal.Behind this was a wall of guartz, six feet thick, which, however, does not show any visible gold\u2014but, working it over and continuing the tunnel, it was found that the belt of mixed quartz and slate\u2019 extended a breadth of fifteen feet beyond the six feet wall of solid quartz, and that this part of the belt contained fourteen leads of quartz varying from two feet to one inch in thickness\u2014all showing visible gold.In this extraordinary belt, including a few outlying leads alongside of it, have been found thirty-two leads in a breadth of forty-one feet.In order to test it Mr.Hall went eastward along the bell a distance of fifty feet from the tunnel; there lie opened a trench ten feet loñg, five feet wide, and two feet deep, and had the satisfaction of picking up a considerable quau- tity of gold from the stuff taken out of this trench, without any breaking up of the quartz, except what was broken by the discharge of powder used in blasting.This trench\u2014only five feet wide\u2014exposed five leads, the largest eleven inches thick, the next aix inches, then one four inches thick, and the remaining two averaging about two inches thick, showing visible gold.At this point these leads were larger than where they were first exposed in the tunnel fifty feet to the west.The owners of this valuable property have ample water to drive machinery, and are making preparations for the erection of a fifteen stamp mill.Mining operations will probably be near the Kelag River, about four miles from the june- tion of the Musquodoboit and Sheet Harbor roads, and fifteen miles from shipping at the head of Sheet Harbor.rt THE PRUSSIAN DAY OF PRAYER.KING WILLIAM'S PROCLANATION, [From the \u201cStaats Anzeiger.\u201d] I am compelled to draw the sword to wan! off a wanton attack, with all the forces at Germany's disposal.It is a great consolation to me before God and man that I have in no way given a pretext for it.My conscience açquits me of having provoked this war, and I am certain of the righteousness of our cause in the eight of God.The struggle before us is serious, and it will demand heavy sacrifices trom my people and from all Germany.But I go forth to it looking to the omuiscient God, and imploring His Almighty support.I have already cause to thank God; on the first news of the war one only feeling animated all German hearts and proclaimed aloud the indignation felt at the attack, and the joytul confidence that God will bealow victory on the righteous cause.My people will also stand by me in this struggle aa thay stood by my father, who now resta with God, They will, with me, make all sacrifices to conquer peace again for the nations, From my youth upwards I have learnt to belleve that ail depends upon the help of a acious God.In Him is my trust, and I eg my people to rest in the same assurance.T bow myeelf before God in acknowledgmeut of his mercy, and I an sure that my sub jects and fellow-pourttrymen do so with me.Therefore, I declare that Wednesday, July 27, shall be set apart for an extraordinarypolemn dayof prayer, and Divine seryice in gl churches with abstention from ali public occupations and labor as far as may comport with the pressing necpssities of this time.1 also decree that while the war lasts prayers shall be offered in all Divine services that in this struggle God may lead us to victory ; that He may give us grace to bear ourselves as Clirlstian men, unto our epemjgs, gnd that it\" may please Him to allow us to obtain g lasting peace, founded on the honor and independence 6f

Royal Commission, upon the occasion of the prorogation of Parliament : My Lords and Gentlemen : The etate of public business enables me to release your attendance upon Parliament.I continue to receive from all the foreign powers, assurances of their good will and friendehip; but I have witnessed with great pain and grief, on both domestic und foreign grounds, the recent outbreak of war Letween the two powers\u2014 nations allied to this country.My best exertions have been used to avert this great calamity.I shall now direct constant and anxious attention to a strict observance of the duties and rights of neutrality.I have cheerfully assented to the measure matured by your wis- 1dom Lo enlarge the powers of the executive, not only for the discharge of international duties, but for the prevention of acts injurious to the interests of this country.1 shall make every fitting endeavour to check the operation of canses leading to the enlargement of the area of contlict, and shall contribute, if opportunity offers, to the restoration of an early and honorable peace.1 have tendered to the belligerent powers, treaties identical in form which will give additional security to Belgium, against the hazards of war on her frontier.A treaty has Leen signed by Count Bernstorff, for the North German Confederation, and the French envoy hus signified that he has authority to eign the corresponding instrument, and the receipt of full power therefore from the powers parties to the treaty of 1839 has been invited, and they are likely to accede to the engagement.The shocking murders in Greece have produced a painful impression in Europe, and have drawn attention to the se- rioug evils existing in that country, My unremitting efforts will be directed to secure a searching inquiry into the facts.Gentlemen of the House of Commons: [ thank you for the liberal provision made by vou for the ordinary service of the year, and the additional supplies of men and_inoney voted in view of the altered circumstances of the continent, The revenue gives promise to meet the new charges thuscreated, without revising the proper balances of the revenue and expenditure.The act for the repression of agrarian crimes and to maintain order in Ire- lund has answered its purpose thus far.From the act regulating the occupation of land, I anticipate the restoration of peaceful re'ations between the landlord aud tenant, and of confidence and benevolence in the legislation duly protecting life and property.I have been pleased to concur in the bill for national edu- calion in England ; a new guarantee for the moral and social well-being of the nation, its prosperity and powers ; the naturalization act and that for the extradition of criminals, tend lo strengthen our friendly relations with other powers.The act regulating enlistments for short terms, I hope will increase the efficiency of the forces and promote the welfare of the soldiers, and provide for the nation a reserve well trained in arms and ready on any emergency to return to their standards.I bid you farewell for tlie recess, with the earnest prayer that when again summoned, Tmay rejoice with you on the re-establishment of peace in Europe, EvANGELIOAL ALLIANOE-\u2014It has been resolved, as upon the whole best in the circumstances, to postpone the great meeting of the Evangelical Alliance whiéh was to have been held in New York on the 32nd of next month.However much this may be to be regyetted, the reasons for it are quite decisive, To have stich a meeting in the present condition of affairs in Europe would be a mistake.The kind of meeting desired could not at present be secured, and though the New York friends have put themselves to great trouble and expense in Pr \u2014 fences of Paris, and 8,000 cannoniers from the navy have been placed under his orders to man the forts.The Journal Officiel says: Up to one o'clock this mopning, no\u2019 attack has been made ou our left wing.Our

RADWAY\u2019S SARSAPARILLIAN RESOL- VENT, CONSUMPTION and SCROFULA; Radway\u2019s Pills, the best purgalive and corrector of the system.These simple medicines have out-cured and achieved a complete conquest over the best medical skill in Paris, in fact of the world.Dr.Radway would here siate that the lollowing testimonial was published without his knowledge, never having correspondence or business with said newspaper, and the publication of the eame in the Gazette he can only attnbute to the sincere regards of the publishers for the Public Good.The great success of these remedies in Paris, where our American doctors go to perfect \u2018hemselves in medical knowledge, leaves them very far in the rear.Radway\u2019s Remedies beat the instructors of our medical men.Read the testimony.THE EFFICACY OF ROOTS AND HERBS The march of experimental science, since the beginning of the present century, is something astonishing.The great Ireasury of nature has been opened, and though we have just put our hands on what lies under the lid, we have seen enongh to infer what is below, aud what is yet in store for us.The dark ages wasted much time in strife and ignorance, and were still infants in the march of improvement ; but better things are daily dawning upon us.Thus, to confine our atlention to our walk of improvement io science, what strides have been made toward purifying our cities and improving our medical treatment?The Romans, it is true, bad found the salutary virtues of water, and used it freely.But water is only one (and a great one) among a thousand sanitary power that lie neglected at our feet.Weare just beginning to wake up to the fact that every root and grass at our feet has virtues beyond price.Yet the very dog and cat might have taught us the truth; and now ce io receive the secret of some wondrous power in a neglected herb.Happy man to have reached a day when the sanguinary and poisonous phase of mineral drugging is nearly over.It is evident that a milder vegetarian materia medice will soon supersede it; and the remark of Napoleon [.to Dr.Corvisart, * You have killed more men than 1 have,\u201d will not be applicable to future leeches.We have been led to these reflections by considering Dr.RADWAY\u2019S new and admirable giscovery, which appears destined to supersede much of the misery and mis- chiet caused by what has hitherto been called Medical Treatment.It would exceed vur limits to expatiate on all that it has been proved 10 do; but we may add that ample experience has now shown thal consumption snd scrofuia, even in aggravated forms, give way before it, and that it has the rare power of dissolving calculi.Then, again, RADWAY\u2019S READY RELIEF is a sure cure tor cholera, and will stop the most violent pain, eillier internal or external, in from one 10 20 minutes.Nor can the charge of imperfect testing be applied to ity for it was tried throughout the war, both as a preventive and cure of all malignant and malarious fevers, dysentery, colds, and rheumatisms\u2014and the result was marked success.Then, again, RADWAY?\u2019S PILLS are a they are both a purgative and corrcetive.pepsia.° We may add, for the interest of those in Europa ignorant of the matter :\u2014 rillian Resolvent in curing Consumption and Serofula, of dissolving Tumors, Calcul, Stone, Gall Stone\u2014is its Resolving properties of melting away, so to speak, of hard substances; of its supplying the blood with the constituents of life, vigor, strength, richneas, and purity, and enabling this great source of life to hold in solution all its constituents.It is not an accidental discovery of simples, gathered at random by inexperienced persons, bul a scientific oombination of vegetable substances yielding great medicinal properties\u2014culled Irom the vegetable kingdom by experienced botanists, and subjected to the teats of the most searching and powerful chemical analysis\u2014and combined and associated so as 10 secure perfect harmony of the\u2019 ingredients used, in accordance with their PHARMACEUTICAL EQUIVALENTS ; in fact, it is the most scientific combination of ingredients, possessing madicinal or remedial properties of the vegetable kingdom in vogue.Truly has Dr.Radway of New York given to the Old World in his Ready Relist and Sar- «aparillian Resolvent, the nucleus of a new system of medicine.That it is entirely composed of Roots and Herbs.That it is in ench repute in America, that it has large laboratories in New York and at Montreal.In short, it appears full time that the al- tention of Europe should be directed to this greal advocate in medical treatment, which amounts (o almost a revolution, overthrowing the ancient régime of mineral poisons and violent pusgelives, It would occupy too much space (o dweli on the valuable addition to medical knowledge and materia medica that have been fitst condemned as quackery and ultimately received with open arms.Harvey's discovery of the Circnlation of the Blood ; that of Peravian bark ; that of the stethoscope ; and poantlers others, have been at first ridiculed and scouted,-and then adoptesl.So with RADWAY\u2019S READY RELIEF.The evidence of iis efficacy is fall and before the publie.It is smply sufficientHo prove that it is the policy of the publio to sdopt i walers containing large quantities of Chloride ;

but Dr.Radway\u2019s Sarsa- parillian settles this question.For it has cured over Twenty Persons of Ovarian Cysts and Tumors, as well as Tumors inthe Bowels, Uterus, Womb, Liver, Dropsical Effusion, Ascites, and Calculos Concretions, Theknown ingredients of Dr.Radway's Resolvent were claimed by Sir Benj.Brodie, used in their crude form, uncombined, to possess the power of dissolving stone in the bladder, and curing all irritations of the Bladder and Urinary Organs; of correcting and checking great and involuniary discharges of waler; and, now in the present improved and scientific combination of these ingredients in the Sarsaparillian Resolvent, it will more effectually cure and remove Tumors and al) other hard substances.It 1s called RESOLVENT, for it discusses and melts away Tumors, Noder, Hard Swellings, Lumps, Concretions in the Joints, Gioin, Testes, Bladder, Kidneys, &e., and will save ! the patient ihe painful necessity of undeigoing operations of the surgeon's knife.The following letter, or certificate of cure, was received on the 20th day of July, 1869.The lady is unknowns to a3, but she 18 well known an Beverly, Mass.; those interested can write her, and make inquiries of her status of tha selectmen of the town.We publish the letter at the lady\u2019s request.TUMOR OF 12 YEARS\u2019 GROWTH CURED BY RADWAY'S RESOLVENT.Bevery, Mass., July 18,1869.Dr.Ranwar : I have had Ovarian Tumor in the ovaries and bowels.All tbe doctors said ¢° THERE Was No HELP FoR IT.\u201d | tried everything thal was recommended, but nothing helped me.I saw your Resolvent, an! thought I would try it, bul HAD No FAITH in it, because | had suffered for TWELVE YEARS.I took SIX BOTTLES OF RESOIVENT, one box of Radway\u2019s Pills, and used two bottles of your READY RELIEF ; and there is not a sign of a tumor to be SEEN OR FELT, and I felt BETTER, SMARTER, and happier than | have for 12 years.The worst tumor was in the left side of the bowels, over the groin.I write this to you for the benefit of others.You can publish it if you choose.Hannan B.Knapp.This lady was cured of tumors of 12 years\u2019 growth by six BoTTLES oF THE RESOLVENT.This is truly remarkable.But the sick must bear in mind that Tumors of the same character in different persons, do not all yield as quick in one as in another, as much depends on the condition of health, state of the blood, character and condition of monthly periods'and previous health.Some persons may have to take 24 bottles, whereas others are cured by six botiles; but persevere with the medicine, and a cure is ceriain.Dr.Rapwar®s REMEDIES are sold by Druggists and at Dr.RADWAY'S Medical Warehouse, No.87 Maiden Lane, New York, and No.439 St.Paul street, Montreai.September 8, 1869.THE GREATEST MEDICAL DISCOVERY OF THE AGE ERRY\u2019S CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIA- CUM restores the unpaired powers ol hie when exhausted by the tolliesol youth, ma- wanty, or old age.li isa certain cure 16 ail cases of extreme nervous debiiny produced by early imprudence, and various othe: causes, spermalorrheea, exhaustion, Incapacity for society, study, or business, indigestion, shortness oi breath, dimuess ot sight, giddiness, cholic, bowel and bilious liver complaints, constipation and relaxahon, dy- sentry, asthma, jaundice, fever, lumbago, gout, rheumatism, coughs, colds, sore, weak aad ulcerated 1hroats, nervousness, hysteria, pains inthe Limbs, interrupted circulation, lie-dolerean, restlessness al night, all chronic diseases and and all female complaints.This invaluable medicine 1s the most wonder- fal triamph of art over nature, and is adapted tor both sexes.It hasthe effect of restoring and increasing the natural vigour of those who are suffering from prostration and langour produced by sojourning in the colonies or in hot climates.Thousands have been restored to health and vigour by its use, as sworn to on oath before the Right Honorable Matthew Wood, Lord Mayor of London, andthe following Aldermen :\u2014 Sir John Eamer, George Scholey, Esq., John Atkins, Esq., and others.Price 11s.per bojtle, or four quantities in one for 33s., which saves 1lIs.;
