He hopes that the successful , easy , and expeditious mode be has adopted , of eradicating every fymptam of a Certain Disease , without any material alteration in diet , or hindrance of Wines * , and yei preserving the constitution in full vigour and free from injury , will establish his claims for support . 'is this Disease is one-which is VikeW to be contracted whenever exposure take * place , it is not like manv other visitors , once in life , but on the contrary , one infection may scarcely have been removed , when mnother may unfortunately be imbibed , . therefore the Practitioner requires real judgment in order to treat eacb particular Case in * uch a manner an not merely to remove the preseDtatt 3 ck , but to preserve the constitution unimpaired , in case of a repetition at no distant period . The man of experience can avail himself of the greatest improvements in modera practice , by being able to distinguish between dincharges of a specific and of a simple or mild nature , which can only be made by one in daily practice , iftet duB conaderauon of all circumstanceii . In tbe same manner at birth , appearances often take jlace in children , which call fora proper knowledge and acquaintance with the disease , in order to # » eriminate their real nature , and which may be the means of sowing domestic discord , unless managed "by the Surgeon with propriety and skill . Patient * labouring under this Disease , cannot be too ; cautious into whose hand they commit themselves . Tbe propriety of this remark is abundantl y manifested ^ y the same parry frequently passing tbe ordeal of several Practitioners , before be is fortunate enough to obtain a perfect cure . Tbe following are some « f the many symptoms that distinguish this Disease : —a general debility , eruptions on the head , face , and body ; ulcerated sore throats , scrofula , swellings in the neck , nodes on the shin bones , cancers , fistula , pains in the head and limbs , which are frequently mistaken for rheumatism , &e . &c .

The certainty wits-which the Pills are continually administered can be attested by many thousands who -We / . annually cured by them . VTbat medicise can be more appropriate than that which has given-such -. general-satisfaction ? The French Pills root out every particle of tbe insidious poison , purifying in their 1 }«* gSe * 8 ; tDe whole mass of thuds . They not only remove the disease "but they renovate by their action the different furo ions of tbeT > ody—expelling the grosser humour , and in a manner so- imperceptible as to convince the m < wt sceptical of their astonishing and unequalled powers . They neither contain mercury mor any other mineral , and may be taken without the slightest suspicion of discovery ; they require no restraint of diet , loss of time , or hindrance of business , but effect a complete cure without the least exposure •^ oifeepatient . At any period when the slightest suspicion may exist it will be well to have recourse to the French Pills ; for when taten before the disease ha ? madeits appearance tbey act as a certain preventive , removing the complaint effectuall y and secretly . Tbe deplorable state in which many peraons have been wbes ^ Mitingifc * Doctor ( from the use of mercury ) renders it imperatively necessary to caution the public against that dangerous mineral whra injudiciously administered . ' --, % / vThe Doctor , after an extensive practice of Thirty Years , has rendered his counsel an object of ¦ flie utmost consequence to . all who are labouring under hereditary or deep seated maladies ; to those troubled vith senunal-weaJuiessyhi 8 advice will be invaluable ; hundreds \ bave owned his skill in these complaints . To the youth of both sexes , whether lured from health by tbe promptings of passion , or the ^ delusions of ioexperence , Ms advice is superior ; in his practice he unite * a mild gentleness of treatment , and possessing so thorough aknowledge . of . his art , the most deplorable cases afford no resistance toTiis * skin . ' His exten-« ye practice tag rendered him . the depository of many distresang secrets which are kept with unblemished failh . ; andJiDDOttr _; to persons so afflicted , it » highly netesgary . to observe that an early application is of flie greatest inxpoxance , and that with such a practitioner any hesitation in 'disclosing their'disorder , must amemottoja delicacy as destructive as it is false and unnecessary .

( From Mackenzie ' * Gazette . ) Ecclfsiastical Tyranny . — At length the craftv government of bishops , lords , court ladies , pensioners , army contractors , tax collector * , millionaires , and pimps , who hold in their artful gra ^ p the enerf / ieg of England , have completely gained their ohject of making the Catholic priesthood in Canada political engines of their system . Hitherto no court has declared to acknowledge the power of the Bishops to remove the priests or curate ? from one parish to another at pleasure . But now that despotism with its bayonets holds the sway , Lord Durham having the power to remove the whole court of King ' s Bench at pleasure , that servile body has hastened to decide in tb& way that would be most agreeable to t \ rants , that the Roman Catholic
binhopf , who are installed by the Pope , on learning the pleasure of the English court , can harrasss tbe curates at willj especially if they presume to love their country . Once installed , the head bishops are paid £ 4 , 000 a year out of the proceeds of the taxes raised at Quebtc , and are understood to exercise all their influence to keep their clergy busy spreading Joyalty , as Lartigue , bishop at Montreal , did last fall , ijy tb >*? decision , these bribed h reling bishops will be enabled to tell any liberal , good-hearted priest , who sVinws a latent fripndiiWp for kit * countrymen's right * , " Dare to be patriotic , and I will send you to Anticosti , or some other poor and inhospitable curacy . " Of course the tithes in Lower Canada make some parishes very rich , while others are very poor . The bishops have thu * in their bands rewards and punishments .
/' Will there be War ?" --The National Laborer ( American Paper ) of July 2 . 1 st , in an excellent article under this heading , after paying various high compliments to Mackenzie , has the following : — " But now we have a word , not uniinport nt perhaps , to say to our spirited brother of Canada , and through his columns , to the Canadian People ^—whether now sheltered within our borders , or still harassed and bleeding beneath the scourge of British dominion . The wings of the great Eagle are outspread to shelter , beyond the reach of foreign injury , every son and daughter of humanity . ; but that great Eagle , —fierce and tremendous as he will be found
if sought in his own eyrie *— goes not forth to revenge the wrongs of any people . In hjs neutrality— -in his forbearHnce —have been , and now are , treasured the hopes and future happiness of the world . Let the false British Leopard ( true emblem of British Government ) rampage and roar , or whine and play all its antic tricks before heaven and before manthe days of its life are numbered . "War—war , Mackenzie , there is ( we aBswer your question ;) although it be not of the sword . A fieree and a decisive war there is in which the United States expend what is mora rare if less costly than the blood of their people . They expend the experience of all past ages and prepare ? n example for all the future . Let the huge Babylon rack her braiDs and her
entrails in efforts to sustain her failing empire . For ycur people—let them play Quaker at home ( would they could have done it through the past twelve months and spared the horrors of , St . Eustache and the defeat of Toronto)—Let them play Quaker , we say at home , or come here . Nothing is to be gained by fighting with bullies , ( we say this to our Democrats ia Congress . ) Every thing is to be lost by fighting with the trained and hired legions of a government which lives upon the sweat and the gore of the people of the earth . ( We say , this to the patriots ot Canada , and to our own sympathising border population . ) A little more patience , suffering people of all nations ! and if the Monster move , it will effect its own death , if it stand still , It will be starved .

British Politics in America . —Of British Tory or Whig productions , under half or whole American colors , this nation has ever had from its first existence unto the present hour , more than enough for ite peace and honour , and for the very decency of society .

. AMERICA . . : United Stages Bank Bonds .- —Th « Phila delphia United States Gazette assigns five reasons why the United States Bank bonds , to the amount of between four and five millions of dollars , now ini the bands of the Goyer / imeit a . re not likely to find puTcbaterH at par , and under ^ par tbey are not by tne Act permitted to be sold . These reasons in brief are—1 , That ai they eannot be # old usder par , they ! cannot by any possibility yield more than 6 . per cent ; intere 8 r , which is the rate they-bear , 2 . . The investment is too shoit—not more than an average of
eighteen months . 3 . If sent abroad , the shortness of the investment would be decisive against them . 4 * They are liable to offsets on the part of the bank . 6 . They may be paid in the engagements of the Government itself ; for instance , a Treasury draft on Florida or Arkansas . A sixth reason , which might have been added , is , that Mr . Biddle keeps the market" full of bonds equally good in other respects , and wbioh bear seven per cent , intereot . Monied men can have these at par ; why then should they take 6 per cent , bonds of the same bank at par ?
THE TJNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AND THE
UNITED STATES BANK BONDS . ( From the Philadelphia United States Gazette . ) We find in the National Gazette of yesterday afternoon the subjoined paragraph : —> "It is rumoured that the bond of the Bank of the United States , due in 1839 , for two millions of dollars , has been sold by the Treasury department , at par , to Charles Macalester , Esq ., of this city . " The above rumour , we are happy to say , is well founded . The same offer was mnde for the bond due in 1840 , for a like amount , but declined , the Secretary of the Treasury not having decided-that the public exigencies will require its sale .
