DONAGHY. /110 THE PUBLIC, and purlieu/arty to Itty Termer patrons of this city:—Having retired trout the practice of Medicine. I may be permitted to say, that it has fallen to the Int of but few persons to have enjoyed so liberal or large a share of obstretriral practice as my own has been for tit, lasi SO or 40 years. The experienre of that long period °fact lye life. and l he fart of my having been t wire, shire 1030. as..ocialed with Dr. It. A. Wilson, In the practice of medicine, (in both a period of rive yea rs .) enables me to judge fully of the nterits °flits pills. So convenient, so efficient. and yet so sale, did I esteem these pills, t hat for the last five yeate In my practice for the cure of chronic diseases,of whatever Immo., and these 01 females in particular, 1, have used morn 01 them than all other medicines. Like every oilier medicine, this must fail In some In stances, hut in my heads there has been testi disappoint. ment and more satisfaction In the administration of this one remedy than of ail others; its good effects sometimes quite astonishing me. limy patient required a safe aperient medicine either -fore or after parturition, the Wilson's pt.ls were just the thing I wattled. If a dyspepticacid condition of the stomach, combined with costiveness or inart telly ofilic liver. con , i tutted the disease if my patient. the pills were just the thing I wanted. If 1 treated a case requiring an ertimenagogue, the Wilson's pills were jttst 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 werejust the thing I wattled. Thus, without resoJet to the name, a diserese might happen to wear at the time I have had It under treat ment, particular Indications or symptons arising, were al - nays moat promptly and most happily met by the tViltion's pills. That so great a number ordiseases, and sometimes ap. parent ly opposite ones, in which I have used these pills, 8110111 d be clued 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 as many different causes, and vet all require that common and greatest all blessings, water to quench their I hirst. l i p conclusion, it la due the eputatlon of Ole medicine acid the pubilr, to say decidedly and unconditionally, that the Wilson's pills are thconly combination I have ever met with In my long course of pract lee. that really pos. eessesanything curative or specific for sick headat he.

Jac-locusts Flue. r The following is the report of the Corn mittee of tfie Senate of Louisiana in rela tion to the fine iMpeited on General Jack son by Judge Hall. A majority of the Committee which made the report att.() Whigs: The committee of 'the Senate of the State of Louisiana, to whom was referred the resolution in relatian to, the fine im posed by Judge D. A. Hall on General 'Andrew Jackson, for an alleged contempt of court, beg leave respectfully to report: That they have not considered it neces sary, for the proper discharge of the duty imposed upon them, to enter into a detail ed examination of the important events of the campaign of 1814-15 in Louisiana.--;• They have long since become a part of the history of the' ountry, and 'no 'differene; of opinion appears to have exi s t e d as to the consummate skill, courage, and energy ofthe dkinguished chief, under whose command was achieved , the most bri;liant victory which adorns our national annals. They: will confine themselves to such mat ters only as haire a direct and immediate connection with the prnceedings in the dis trict court of the United States, beforO Judge Hall. If it has ever been seriously contended that General AndreW Jackson was not fur: ly justifiable iii , projaiming .martial law on the 15th of December. 1814, all the co; temporaneous testimony concurs to - show that this measure; so imperatively called for by the exigencies of the times, received the cordial and unanimous - approbation or Louisiana, and the .constitUted authoritiei of the State; Judge the,. himsell'expresSed; in the most decided manner, his opinion of the propriety and necessity of the proc lamation. From the mass of testimony taken from the official records, and the declaration of a number .of the most re•i st.tretable citizens, now hying, who bore an honorable part in those eventful segues, !the conclusion forces itself irresistalily on 'the minds of your committee that the stern• est. necessity eatisted for this prompt den, laration of martial law—that it would have !been almost criminal not to have done so— r and that without it, it is, extremely doubt; rful whether the city of New Orleans could have been saved. Among the many facts which have combined to produce this coh cornMetee will only Mentioli ' two: Ist. That placards were industrioes ly circulated through'Out the' inviting a servile insurieetion; and. 2d That Gen-' eral Jackson was inforined by Govertior Claiborne (whose opinion was justly 'entl 'tled to great weight; from his high stand ing and intimate •knowledge of the pechliar state of the country) that applications were continually being made to the - Preneli consul, from Lhe citikene of the United States, to be eiteMpted from military dn..- ty—two or whom, at least, had held officii under the State of Louisiana. Had the neceeeity foie the 'continuance of martial law 'ceased on the sth d of March when Louttlier.waoarrested, and the order ,for a 4.abeat corpus directed to General !Jackson, was issued, .hy judge Hill!. •It,is true that. Messrs. E. Livingston, R, D, Sheperd nal Col: Maunael White; who had bsen sent with a flag Of, truce, to the British fleet on "ur coast, returned on the 17th or 18th of I'ebruary,, With the intellis gence that peaeo bad been cenclUded by the theatY of Ghent; but this intelligence was altogether unofficial, and Admiral Cochrane, the commander of the fleet, by abstaining from maki4 any communication of it to the civil or military authorities of !the United States, sufficiently indicated his intention not to act up - in it. On the sth of March, Judge Hall was imprisoned by or der of General Jackson, on the cliarge of : aiding and abetting .8 mutiny in his Camp. On the neat day Gen. Jackson received unofficial intelligence which he imme diately communicated to Gvn. Lambert, the senior officer of the English army, and proposed a cessation of hostilities; he re ceived in reply, a positive refusal, on the ground that he (Gen. Lambert) could not recognize the ratification of peace until the fact had been, announced by his own I.loV ernment. The reasons which induced Geo. Jackson to persist in the maintenance of martial- law, until officially advised of the termination of tiostilitiee, are triumph aptly set for th in an answer to the rule to show cause why attachment should not is. sue against him fur the alleged contempt of courts and your committee think they could not do justice or the Subject without making this answer a part of the report. It is found in the tratiseript of the record, because Jude Hall refused to allow it to be filed. It is not necessary for the put.- - pose of vindicating Gen. Jackson, to ex press t:.t-ir opinion of the motives that ac tuated his j..dge. The answer is sworn to by the respondent; and was published at the time in a pamphlet form. All the facts stated were of recent occurrence and general notoriety, and hay.: never been dis• puled; they afford the most conclusive evi dence of the propriety of Gen. Jackson's, course. While en ths subject of the fine impo. sed byJudge flail for an alleged contempt of the authority of his own court, your committee cannot refrain from exprea9ing some surprise at the amount of fine.
