TO THE PUBLIC, and particularly to will former
patrons of this city:—Having retired from the
practice of Medicine, I may he permitted to say, that it
has fallen to the lot of hot few persons to have enjoyed
so liberal or large a share of obstretrical practice as my
own has been for the last 30 or 40 years.
The experience of that long period of active life, and the
fact of my having been twice, since 1830, assoclatcd with
Dr. R. A. Wilson, In the practice of medicine, (in both a
period of five years.) enables me to judge fully of the
merits of his pills.
So convenient, so efficient, and yet so sa(e, did I esteem
these pills, that for the last five yeais in my practice for
the cure of chronic diseascs,of whatever name. and ihose
of females in particular, I have used more of them thnn
all other medicines.
Like every other medicine. this must fail in some in
stances, hut in my hands there has been less disappoint.
meet and more satisfaction in the administration of this
one remedy than of ail others; its good effects sometimes
quite astonishing me.
. .
If my patient required nsafeaperient medicine either
.efore or after parturition, the Wilson's pi.ls were just
the thing I wanted.
if a dyspeptic acid condition of the stomach, combined
with costiveness or inactivity oft he liver. const noted the
disease of my patient, the Oils were just the thing I
wanted.
If I treated a case requiring an emmenagogue, the
Wilson's pills were just the thing I wanted.
If palpitation, headache, flushed countenance, or other
difficulties, indicating a disturbance of the circulatory
and secretory systems, annoyed my patient at the •turn
of life,' the Wilson's pills were just the thin I wanted.
Thus, without resp2et to the name, a disease might
happen to wear at the time I have had It under treat
ment, particular indications or symptons arising, were
always most promptly and most happily met by the
Wilson's pills.
That so great a number of diseases, and sometimes ap.
parently opposite ones, in which 1 have used these pills,
should be cured more readily by them than by any other
remedy, may at first seem strange and contradictory, but
why it is so is as clear to my mind as that a great many
persons should become thirsty from tai many different
causes,and yet all require that common and greatest of
all blessings, water toquench their thirst.
in conclusion, it is due the reputation of the medicine
and the public, to say decidedly and unconditionally, that
the Wilson's pillitaretheonly combination l baths ever
met with la my tongcourse of practice, tbat really pos•
ceases anything mtratirreoc wrzeitie for sick headache.

We have reason to believe that the Earl
of Aberdeen has distinctly caused it to he
made known in the proper quarter, that no
concession can be given by .he British to
the French G.,vernine;it with regard to the
ob!igations iiiiimeed by the right of search
treaties ut 1831 aod 1833. The noble earl
has, we ate told, peremptotily declined even
to negotiate on cte subject.
We have also reason to suppose that Rus
sia, Austria and Prussia have approved of
the cour:e taken by the British Govern
ment on this occasion.
Further, we understand that the French
Mini ter, who substantially holds by the in •
b,rnational engagements imposed by those
treaties, proposes to calm Lila opposition
likely to be offered in both chambers to the
right of seach by gradually diminishing the
number of cruiser licenses hitherto granted
