Thousands can testify of their be ing cured by these Drops, after" the Bark and every other Medicine have proved ineffectual ; and not one in a hundred has had occasion to take mere than one, and numbers not half a Bottle. These Drops are particularly recommend ed to the inhabitants-of low, marshy coun tries, where the worst sort of Agues gene rally prevail ; which, unless early attended to and speedily removed, injure the consti tution exceedingly; and bring on Dropsies, Putrid Fevers, and a variety of Complaints f tbe most dangerous and alarming nature. Many other Medicines are daily ottered tc thf public for the cure of this disorder. which upon trial have been found either dangerous or useless. The bark is the usual remedy made use of ; but being a very nau seous Medicine, and seldom taken in suffi cient quantity, "it very often" fails ; and chil dren and. those who have wreak stomachs, are frequently lost, for want of a more eas;, and pleasant Remedy. Extract of a letter from' Dr. C Sopor. " Kent Co. Delaware. 'I have given the Ague Drops to a Num ber of patients this fall, and with censtaiv success ; in some obstinate cases they actec Tike a charm- the disease yielding in a day or two to this remedy, after resisting the barks for months, though they had beeri thrown in, in the largest doses.' From Dr. J. Slangier, York-Town, Penn sylvania. " I CAN at any moment, if you thinl proper.to advertise them, procure the certi iicates of very respectable persons in this place and its vicinity, of the efficacy of the 'Ague Drops and Worm Lozenges, the lat ter very effectual as a vermifuge, and suc cessfully, used in diarrhoea and dysentary, complaints which have been very prevalent Jiere." From 3Tr. Gideon White, Annapolis. u I have sold many of the Ague and Fe ver Drops to people in the country, and have not know any to fail curing The Lozenges have sold very well . lately I hear of several cures such as bringing worms from Children, and doing much good to persons of a billious habit." From Mr. Hob. Mercer, Printer, Freder icksburg. " The Asrue Drops have cured in everv case I have heard of, and increases in de mand, as the ague and fever prevail very much here every fall. Some interested Doctors have done all in their power to de preciate their value, pretending they do not act mildly ; but the people will not easily believe what so obviously contradict their senses 1 know young Children who have taken it, and no other effect was per ceived but the ceasing of the disorder." To tbe Public. I here certify, that on the fifth dayof July last, I was taken ill of the ague and fever and a short Time after two children in my house became sick Qf the same complaint- when hearing of the ague drops advertised in the Carlisle Gazette, I purchased a bottle from Mr. Dawson, by the use of a small part of which my ague ceased for some time ihe said bottle .of drops stopped the ague on the two children and had we made use of a sufficient quantity of the drops I believe a perfect cure would have been effetted. I found them innocent and safe, as taken according to the printed directions. GEORGE CROCKER From the Carlisle Gazette. . (Tlie following certificates were volunta rily offered in favour of this medicine, in tonsequence of the malicious insinuations, 0t of respectable uhvsirtnnc H4tMvir nt heart the welfare of the community but of c pat, , genuine, unadulterated quacks. J Sir, I hare made use of your ague drops they have operated mildly and according to my Wishes, have performed a cure on merwith producing any inconvenience I think lnetn a safe and excellent medicine, and ou!d have recourse to them again as a cure J the ague in preference to any other me lcme.

Accounts daily received confirm tbe distressing effects of the late storm and hurricane in South-Carolina and Georgia. In our last page will be found a more full ac count of its ravages in Charleston, mentioned in our last. Its effects in South-Carolina do not appear, trom the present accounts, to have been as destructive as in Georgia. In our second page will be found an account or the progress ot it in Savannah and Georgetown, from which it appears that the damage occasioned by the storm on the plantations and crops, as well as in the towns, is very great. We have not as yet heard of its effects at sea, but expect its fury was e qualiy destructive there as on shore, In one of the northern papers ap pears a lengthy letter from a corres pondent at Cadiz, respecting the difference at present existing be tween the Minister of the United States and their Court, in which it is said that Mr. Pinckney had de manded his passports and before that time left Madrid. After ex plaining the cause of dispute, viz. the claim set up by the United States to the Floridas, the writer concludes: " The interpretation gi ven by the United States to the treaty of cession of Louisiana, is W tm A. mm mW MM extra v uk untenable, $nd MfiW mes tionecf by u?? -Spfe cpiiaU th ough the annihilation of tHe , mo narchy should become a possible consequence of Us rejection of sor degrading a proposal." London papers to the 18th July inclusive, Lloyd's lists to the 18th and Prices Current on the 13th, bv the Oneida Chief, Captain Kemp, arrived at New-York. The papers are four days later than any adv ices which had previously reached us, but contain no event of moment. The political situation of Europe, as it s tood at the departure of the Oneida Chief, will be perceived iu the articles of intelligence in our se cond page, which comprise the pa pers xv& have received.

The following is an exact copy of a paper which isposted up at the quarters of Kernper, and at seve ral other places through the coun try of the Floridas. u For a people to be free it is sUf ficient that they will it : we the un dersigned, citizens of the West Florida, send these presents greet ing. WHEREAS the despotism under which we have long groaned, has grown into an insupportable burthen, and as it is long since admitted men are born with equal rights, we the undersigned inhabitants of t-hutpart of the dominion called West Florida, have resolved to throw ol the galling yoke of tyranny, and become free men, declaring ourselves a free and independent people, and by support ing with our lives and property that declaration, and we do by these pre sents, - invite our fellow sufferers throughout the province aforesaid, to repair to the standard to aid in the effecting our common emancipation we pledge ourselves solemnly to each other, and to our fellow men interes ted in the events to avoid as far as practicable the effusion of blood (save that of our common enemy) and in all cases shall private property be held sacred. So soon as our emancipa. tioii is effected, we will olferourselves to some government accustomed to fpeedotfi. Those who set up in opposition to our operations for the purposes afore said, will be received as our common enemy, the enemy of mankind and of liberty, and will be treated accord ingly. Given Under our hands on the south side of the line of Demarkation, in the province aforesaid, this 1st day of Flo ridian Freedom. August 7th 1804, The Fall Term of the District Court of Virginia commenced in Petersburg on the 15th. Judge Prentis and Nelson preside. We understand no criminal cases of any magnitude will be tried at this session. George Tucker is appointed a Director of the Bank of Virginia in the room of George Jefferson re signed. The Legislature of Tennessee has brought its called session to a close. We understand that they have passed nearly forty laws. During the session, a ballot was taken for a Judge of the superior court, vice Gen. Andrew Jackson, resigned, when John Overton Esq. was unanimously elected. The prints' of Connecticut are occupied with disscussing the in teresting question, whether it is desirable to establish a parmanent constitution in the room of the roy al charter at present in force. The republicans are strenuous advocates and the federalists as strenuous opponents of the measure. There certainly cannot be a more propi tious season than the present for a cool and deep examination of the important principles whichform the elements of Constitutions ; as. it is probable that every great, change introduced at this time would be in favor of Liberty. It is with much satisfaction, therefore, we perceive this subject awakening the attention it so well merits. The Governor of Pennsylvania has offered a reward of eight hun dred dollars for arresting the prin- cipal oriender, and Aowr hundred for arresting each of the accompli ces concerned in the shooting of Ed- . . -. i M m shot wtfieyora the S 7th or last J Uiy,rU is suppuseu by-one 6C the rniecuciit intraders. It will be recollected by our read ers, that this description of people have for a number of years past, notwithstanding the conciliatory measures of Pennsylvania, been in constant perturbation; and have endeavored by terror to possess themselves of property to which they have no rightful claim. We understand that it is contemplated by the Executive of Pennsylvania to pursue vigorous measures for the suppression of these lawless associations. The New;. York Daily Adverti ser of the 8th inst. says u It is ru moured that M. Jerome Bonaparte and his little Baltimore beauty, have takercjFrench leave, and tacitly slipped off in the vessel which car ries General Armstrong, our lately appointed Minister, to Nantz !" Joseph Stanton and Nehemiah Knightj both republicans have been re-elected representatives to Con gress, for Rhode Island, without opposition. New-Hampshire Election. The! New-Ham hire Gazettee of the 4th inst. has furnished us I with a statement of the votes from one hundred and thirty two towns lor Representative to Congres, which gives the Republican Ticket - - 8414 Federal do. - - - - 8394 Republican Majority 20 The last returns for Governor in the5 above towns, says the same pa per, gave the Republican candi dates 773 votes more than at the present time, and 946 more for the federal canditate Bv which it appears i theo Republicans have gained 173 votes in the short space I ol five months. Kentucky Election. Govei nor of State,. Christopher Greenup, Lieutenant Governor, John Caldwell, for Congress, Matthew Lvon, Matthew Wal ton, John Boyle, Thomas Sand ford, John Fowler, George M. Bedinger. On .Saturday ..'the 18th ultimo, the following melancholy accident happeaed in West Windsor A child of William Tindall. Esq. which was about two years of age, and of which its mother was so un usually fond and careful that she seldom permitted it to be out of her sight, had that afternoon been suf fered to' accompany its father to the cider mill, where he was ma king ciden Something for a mo ment withdrew his attention from the child, and on turning round he saw itJ lying in the mill trough a mangled corpse The child had got into the trough, but when the wheel came round was not able to get out of the way, and was crushed to death, Perhaps none but those who have chiidreu can fully- con ceive what the feelings of the be reaved parents must have been, at losing their only nd beloved child so suddenly and in such a man ner I A MAMMOTH SNAKE I Si range if True ! An old gen tleman of venerable appearance passed through Wilkesberriea few days since, "and gaVe to a number of our citizens tUe followiag infor mation : That he was from the neighbor hoodof the Cayuga lake, and just as he started on his iournev, he saw a man who informed him that two men' were fishing on the lake., when they beheld at alittle distance a monster, in the form of a snake, rise out of the lake, and stretch himself km the bosom of the water, j That his appearance was I ' ; ! " Fierce as ten Furies' Terrible as Hell .'" that the fishermen, with more than ordinary courage, ventured near enough to reach him with a rifle ball, and both firing at once fortu nately dispatched him. Tne people of the neighborhood were immediately caljed together, and the Aquatic Mammoth drawn in triumph to the shore. On' an admeasurement it was found to be 103 feet 4 and an half inches in length, and his size was proportionabiy great. From his head projected a horn of considera ble length. The old gentleman added that m going into Oswego he met three of the inhabitants go- tomout tb see tW extraordinary' ficreature, and that the skin was t& ed for Mr. Pelc's11,111 JrV& Xnrtifi tradition, that lprfg iohabkedv the Lkeand djzf believe i t still c0titinues there& they had an idea thiat it was an evil spi rit, and as such they worshipped it Mammoth Horji.-About six weeks ago, a Horn of very gigan tic size, was carried rip' the Ohio, on its Way to Philadelphia; Ith measured in length 9 feet 7 inches; in circumference 22 1-2 inches, weighing 144 lbs- the: shape' was more crooked than the horns '; of neat catde generally the hollow of the horn was about 7 inches, ta-O pering to a point ; the but had dc ; cayed, and it is probable that one third of the horn had rubbed joff. This remarkable horn Was found at the Ohio Salt Lick.
