<p n="2378">WHEN it is considered how many unhappy<lb></lb>
persons are pining in confinement, for disssemi-<lb></lb>
nating opinions which they deemed conducive to the<lb></lb>
General Good, we shall feel it to be a stigma on our cha-<lb></lb>
racter, that we have been so long indifferent to their con-<lb></lb>
dition. Whether their principles were just or erroneous,<lb></lb>
the motive was probably the public, and not their private<lb></lb>
interest; yet their services are requited with forgetful-<lb></lb>
ness, and their innocent families perishing for want of<lb></lb>
assistance. The Habeas Corpus Act, the Palladium of<lb></lb>
Englishmen's safety, has been suspended to deprive them of<lb></lb>
every resource from oppression; and in addition to the<lb></lb>
pains of Law, they are exposed to the brutality of merci-<lb></lb>
less Jailors, who seem to consider the rigor they exercise<lb></lb>
towards them as grateful recommendations of their services.<lb></lb>
This in not a cause of Party, but of Humanity, in which<lb></lb>
every one whose soul is not narrowed by Prejudice, or<lb></lb>
made callous by Prosperity, will incline to contribute as-<lb></lb>
sistance. Persons of all other descriptions are aided by<lb></lb>

March 16, 1795,</p>
<p n="2433">DEAR SIR,</p>
<p n="2434">ABOUT Twenty Years ago, my fourth Son,<lb></lb>
James, now 31 years of age, had a lump grow un-<lb></lb>
der the skin, on the side of his face and neck, which ap-<lb></lb>
prehending to be a wen, I took an opportunity, while he<lb></lb>
was sleeping, to cut off a good lump of it with a sharp<lb></lb>
pair of scissars; it discharged blood and water with little<lb></lb>
pain: some time after this his arm and elbow became stiff<lb></lb>
and swelled, and burst into four holes about the joint,<lb></lb>
which were happily healed by excluding the air and keep-<lb></lb>
ing him at work; but, I imagine, from not giving him<lb></lb>
proper medicines to purge off the humour, it appeared<lb></lb>
again some time back, in a little hard lump on his throat,<lb></lb>
which by slow degrees increased so much, as to render his<lb></lb>
swallowing any thing exceedingly difficult, and put him in<lb></lb>
danger of being suffocated: this swelling at length broke<lb></lb>
in several places, yet did not relieve him, nor did the cut-<lb></lb>
ting it in another place, by a Surgeon, do him say service,<lb></lb>
as it still continued to increase: several of the faculty<lb></lb>
were consulted, who all agreed it would prove fatal. His<lb></lb>
mother, thinking to get better advice, took him to an<lb></lb>
eminent Surgeon (at the head of a public Medical Insti-<lb></lb>
tution, in a neighbouring capital town), who, on the se-<lb></lb>
cond consultation, informed her, sall was in vain, the disor-<lb></lb>
der would kill him and to do any thing for it would only<lb></lb>
hasten his death. In this my child's dreadful situation, I<lb></lb>
thought it high time to apply to you, for some of your<lb></lb>
Leake's Patent Pills, (which I understood were famous<lb></lb>
for removing swellings of the glands, arising from scro-<lb></lb>
phula), and advice in the case: he began taking them in<lb></lb>
April last, according's to your directions, and in a short<lb></lb>
time had the happiness to observe the hardnesss and size<lb></lb>
of the swelling gradually diminish; he was soon after<lb></lb>
able to swallow with perfect case, and in a sew months<lb></lb>
all the sores entirely healed up firmly and soundly, the<lb></lb>
hadness, Etc. being so entirely obliterated, as not to leave<lb></lb>
the lease appearance of it: in this state he has continued<lb></lb>
ever since, not withstanding he has constantly worked with<lb></lb>
me in my pettery, without losing a day from illness, since<lb></lb>
the first forthight of his taking the Pills. and withstood<lb></lb>
as severe a winter as almost ever I remember, although<lb></lb>
in the 73d year of my age.</p>
<p n="2435">Now, my dear, Sir I can only say you have the grateful<lb></lb>
thanks and prayers of a large family for restoring one of<lb></lb>
their number; who, from being sunk in spirits, in flesh,<lb></lb>
in strength, and as it were already dropping into the<lb></lb>
grave, has, by the aid of your medicine, become chear-<lb></lb>
ful, lusty, strong, and looks forward to a succession of<lb></lb>
many healthful happy years.</p>
<p n="2436">That this extraordinary cure may be made as public as<lb></lb>
possible, for the<obscured></obscured>
of others, is the wish of<obscured></obscured>
</p>
<p n="2437">ENGAGEMENT</p>
<p n="2438">IN THE</p>
<p n="2439">MEDITERRANEAN.</p>
<p n="2440">It has been justly said by a noble Writer,<lb></lb>
that if the Shouts of Victory are once heard<lb></lb>
in the French Fleet, the Crown of Great Bri-<lb></lb>
tain will be no<obscured></obscured>
<lb></lb>
<obscured></obscured>
<lb></lb>
Maritime Strength so necessary as at present;<lb></lb>
but unfortunately, that same puorile presump-<lb></lb>
tion which has conducted our operations by<lb></lb>
land, and brought us to the brink to despera-<lb></lb>
tion and disgrace, directs, under the same sasci-<lb></lb>
nating influence, the naval enterprizes of Bri-<lb></lb>
tain. In this case as in the other, we behold<lb></lb>
the same hateur and supercilious contempt mis-<lb></lb>
leading the National Pilot, and blinding him<lb></lb>
against the dangers which the enthusiatic exer-<lb></lb>
tions of such a Herculean Enemy must create,<lb></lb>
on whatever element their massive force is ex-<lb></lb>
erted. When Toulon was taken by the Eng-<lb></lb>
lish, we were told, that their Mediterranean<lb></lb>
Fleet was destroyed; but Toulon now sends<lb></lb>
forth a Fleet capable of contesting with our's<lb></lb>
the Empire of that Ocean. These Fleets have<lb></lb>
met, and the brazen-mouth'd exultations of <rs type="placeName" id="LMSMPS50909_geo966">the<lb></lb>
Tower</rs>
<interp inst="LMSMPS50909_geo966" type="placeName" value="theTower"></interp>
<interp inst="LMSMPS50909_geo966" type="type" value="undefined"></interp>
of London have confidently assured us<lb></lb>
of a Victory; but he who judiciously analises<lb></lb>
the report given by the British Admiral him-<lb></lb>
self, will be induced to<obscured></obscured>
that Victory<lb></lb>
into a Rebuff. The French had a particular<lb></lb>
object in view; their ships were filled with<lb></lb>
men, and though the English Fleet was in fight,<lb></lb>
they did not choose to relinquish this object for<lb></lb>
the purpose of fighting them; but one of their<lb></lb>
ships having lost her top-masts, and being in-<lb></lb>
capable of keeping up with the others was<lb></lb>
severely handled by two of the English, who<lb></lb>
afterwards quitted her, and another French<lb></lb>
vessel then took her in tow. The next morn-<lb></lb>
ing these two vessels considerably to leeward,<lb></lb>
and separated from the rest of the French, were<lb></lb>
taken by the English Fleet of 14 sail of the line,<lb></lb>
which circumstance brought on a general En-<lb></lb>
gagement with the French Fleet, then reduced<lb></lb>
to 13 sail of the line, by the loss of the said<lb></lb>
two vessels. Though the English Admiral seems<lb></lb>
desirous of representing this in another point<lb></lb>
of view than that of a General Action, yet it<lb></lb>
certainly was so, for there is not a single ship<lb></lb>
of his Squadron but what sustained some loss-<lb></lb>
But when we alk, what was the consequence<lb></lb>
of this General Engagement? To whom the<lb></lb>
Victory inclined? How many Ships were taken,<lb></lb>
<obscured></obscured>
<lb></lb>
no satisfactory solution of these questions. All<lb></lb>
we are told is, "That the van ships suffered so<lb></lb>
much, that it became impossible for any thing<lb></lb>
further to be effected." Is this preserving the<lb></lb>
Empire of the Ocean? Or is it not rather a<lb></lb>
proof that whilst the folly of the Minister ex-<lb></lb>
hausts the strength of this Country in chime-<lb></lb>
rical projects upon the Continent, that Tri-<lb></lb>
dent, the ancient boast and glory of Britain, is<lb></lb>
now gliding out of her hands? Surely it is<lb></lb>
time for this Nation to rouze from its-leathargy,<lb></lb>
to throw aside that treacherous confidence which<lb></lb>
has lured us to the brink of ruin, and by the<lb></lb>
Redress of Public Wrongs, the exemplary pu-<lb></lb>
nishment of Public Traitors, the change of<lb></lb>
political measures, and the proper application<lb></lb>
of the National Force to its natural element;<lb></lb>
not only acquire security against the efforts of<lb></lb>
the Enemy, but also take away from the People<lb></lb>
every just cause. of complaint and discontent,<lb></lb>
which un-nerves the wonted energy of this de-<lb></lb>
clining and divided Country.</p>

man to decline the use of Hair Powder.</p>

valuable commodity, which is now so much in<lb></lb>
demand, and must tend to keep up its present<lb></lb>
enormous price.</p>
<p n="2445">2. It is the effect of pritle and vanity, and<lb></lb>
occasions a criminal waste of that which can<lb></lb>
never be recalled</p>
<p n="2446">3. It is attended with many and great incon-<lb></lb>
veniences, which all who wear it, must have<lb></lb>
fully experienced.</p>
<p n="2447">4. It is in the course of our lives, the waste<lb></lb>
of a considerable sum, which might be applied<lb></lb>
to the most useful purposes.</p>
<p n="2448">5. It is a practice which has introduced an<lb></lb>
effeminacy into the national character, by en-<lb></lb>
gaging men's attention in the ornamenting of<lb></lb>
their persons, and taking it off from things of<lb></lb>
importance.</p>
