The Pencil is so highly finished and unique in its appearance, as to obtain general ad- miration, while it will be found completely to possess the hitherto inimitable softness of the Cumberland Pencil, from which it differs only in possessing superior durability of the point.

HARWOOD, 26, Fenchurch-street, London; and sold by JOHN NASH, at the Merlin office, Mon- mouth. MORISON'S MEDICINES. MR. MORISON, the President, and ME. MOAT, the Vice- President, in conjunction with all the Honorary Members and Country Agents of the British College of Health, being now fully borne out with the conviction, approbation, and indubitable proofs of upwards of 200,000 individuals (who had been thrown aside by the Faculty, and out of the Hospitals, as Incurable) having been restored to sound health by the Universal Medi- cines ;with all this incontrovertible mass of evidence in sup- port of the Hygeian Theory and Practice, which challenges the controversy of the whole body of Medicists, under the old sys- tem, to subvert;—they, the heads of the College, hesitate not to declare, in the face of the Faculty, that this new light must com- pletely change the whole course of the Materia Medica, and introduce a new era in the Science of Physic that, in fact, man- kind will be taught, in future, anew and certain mode of investi- gating the nature and cause of diseases in general, and of pos- sessing a certain and harmless mode of cure, making every indi- vidual his own efficient doctor. In confirmation of what is here asserted, the heads of the College mean to insert in this paper a continued series of new cases, from individuals giving their names, residences, and dates of time of cure, all of which have been voluntarily given, and ascertainable as to the facts by in- quiry. PRESERVATION OF THE LIFE OF AN INFANT. To Messrs. Morison and. Moat. GENTLEMEN,—A very extraordinary instance of the innocency and efficacy of the "Universal Medicines," has lately occurred on an infant of the early age of four months. The child had a severe disease of the bowels, under which (in spite of the efforts of the doctor) it was evident to the parents that, if something efficient were not shortly administered, the struggles of nature must soon be overcome. The doctor declared as much and, as he could do nothing, the parents thought it quite time that other than his means should be had recourse to, and that something should be done, in order to save the child from being sacrificed through extreme ignorance. These people had for some consider- able time been acquainted with the virtues of our Medicines, and, for themselves, had used them in all cases in which they thought medicine to be requisite but still, the tender age of this child awakened some fear that our pill would be improper. All hope. however, in the ordinary mode of treatment (that of the doctors) was gone and feeling that they should not do their duty without giving the pills a trial, they decided upon doing so, and pounded two pills, and gave them they were instantly ejected by the stomach, together with some stringy phlegm but, though thrown up so quickly, they produced a slight relaxation of the bowels. On the following day a similar dose was given, which remained on the stomach about two minutes, when it came up, with more phlegm, and an evacuation of the bowels took place, much brisker than that of the preceding day, attended with the dislodgment of much offensive matter after which an evi- dent improvement was observable. The dose was repeated daily, and it was observed that each dose remained longer on the sto- mach than the preceding one, until, at length, the stomach had gained sufficient strength to retain it altogether evacuations be- came brisk and frequent; and, by this simple mode of treatment, the child was saved. Many will probably imagine, that so much purging must have reduced the child to skin and bones the very reverse of this, however, was the fact, as the parents tell me that the child gained very considerably in flesh during the whole course of purgation and it is now (I saw it two days ago) a remarkably fine child. I do hope that the instance now related (with reference at any time by calling upon me) will help to dissipate the erroneous notion that the medicine does no good when the stomach ejects it immediately on being swallowed. The timidity of parents in this respect, and the errors and igno- rance of the doctors, are the means of throwing away the lives of thousands of infants, ninety-nine out of every hundred of whom might easily and with certairu? be saved by the "Universal Medicines." I am, gentlemen, yours, very truly, Nov. 15, 1832. THOMAS WADELPEM.

FOREIGN. --
FOREIGN. It is stated in the latest arrivals of the German Papers, that the Sultan has accepted the proffered aid of Russia in his contest with the Pacha of Egypt. There appears, how- ever, great reason to question the correctness of this rumour. No doubt that the Grand Vizier brought the defeat upon himself by his treachery and bad faith. Commercial letters from Smyrna, to the 6th ult., assert that a treaty had been concluded between Russia and the Porte, in which the Emperor Nicholas agrees to succour the Sultan with a fleet, and with an army of 60,000 men. UNITED STA.TES. SOUTH CAROLINA. -Either a very great change has taken place in South Carolina in public sentiment, or the Nullifiers have become alarmed. They blow their trumpets in rather more moderate tones; and it is not to be wondered at when they come to look about them, count the cost, and see where the funds to meet the expenditure are to come from. By the report of the committee of ways and means, it is doubtful whether the state have a dollar at command. They state that there are three modes of raising funds to defray the expenses: 1st, by taxing the people; 2dly, by taking the funds belonging principally to the sinking fund and 3dly, by loans. The first cannot be adopted. As to the second, they say the funds are all lent out by the Bank, and cannot be got in. They therefore recommend that 200,000 dollars be raised by loan, at five per cent.; and even this small sum, it is probable, cannot be raised without a great sacrifice. The legislature has adjourned, and at its close a better feelino- seemed to prevail among the members. The test oath, which has finally passed, is very conveniently put off, and not required to be taken until the civil and military offi- cers, now in commission, are called upon to discharge duty under the ordinance," which, if we credit the tone of one of the most prominent papers on the side of nullification, will not occur immediately. Extract of a letter, dated Washington, Jan. 4:—"The holidays are passed without the occurrence of any thing im- portant of a political character. The message we had ex- pected from the President, transmitting the proclamation and the ordinance of South Carolina, has not been sent. It will be very strange if the President does not communicate the ordinance to Congress, when he was expressly requested to do it. If he shall put his veto upon it, or if he shall put it into his pocket, he ought in common civility to inform the Congress what is his sovereign will and pleasure re- specting it. The votes of his friends on the resolution offered by Mr. Adams, conclusively prove they wish to avoid a discussion on the proclamation, or the ordinance. Reports reach us, that 14,000 men have already tendered their services in South Carolina, to defend the state against the United States troops, and that a considerable number of young men in Virginia have offered their services in de- fence of state rights and nullification. If the President shall be disposed to execute the laws, I have no doubt he will have at his command any number of troops the exi- gency may demand. Although there are many in Virginia who are mad enough to unite with South Carolina, still, from all the accounts received from different sections of that state, I think it is quite certain the doctrine of nullification is not popular there, notwithstanding the resolutions of 1798 and 1799, which some politicians have been taught to believe are the true exposition of the powers of the different governments. Mr. Tazewell and Mr. Lee have been ap- pointed, on the part of Virginia, to mediate between the United States and South Carolina, or rather to go to South Carolina, and endeavour to persuade her not to commit any acts of violence at present. This may all be very well, but there is a degree of arrogance in it that shews Virginia con- siders herself to be the "ancient dominion'' still, whose advice is entitled to all consideration. If Virginia couid repair the injury she has done to the confederation, by the promulgation of her heterodox exposition of the constitution, by her offer of mediation, all would cheerfully acquiesce in the kind but unsought tender of her services. This she cannot do; and when this beautiful system of government, that has commanded the admiration of the world, and caused thrones to totter, shall have been rent asunder by faction, the seeds of its destruction will be found to have been planted in 1798 and 1799, when ancient Virginia was grasping after political power." FRACAS BETWEEN TWO GENERALS.—The American Papers give a long account of a fracas at Washington between General Blair, a member of the House of Repre- sentatives from South Carolina, and General Green, editor of a paper in which the Union party in South Carolina, to which General Blair belongs, were charged with being Tories. General Blair met General Green on the 24th ult. in the public street, and asked him what he meant by call- ing the Union party Tories. General Green replied, his paper spoke his sentiments, and he had no explanation fur- ther to give. General Blair thereupon knocked General Green down upon the side walk with his staff. General Green soon regained his feet, and drew his dagger, to de- fend his reserved rights." General Blair perceiving he had not completely nullified, much less annihilated his an- tagonist, and that his corporation was about to be tested by steel, drew out his dagger, and threw himself upon his sovereignty also." The parties were spiritedly advancing towards each other, when they were separated by some gentlemen who saw the affray. General Green is said by some to be much injured, and by others only slightly. General Blair, of South Carolina, has again disgraced himself and the party with whom he is associated, and by whom he has until now been upheld, by an outrage on the public peace, not perhaps, so cruel, malignant, or injurious in its consequences, as his attack on General Green, but equally atrocious, unprovoked, and unexpected. Last night, at the theatre, he fired off a pistol loaded with ball, and the object aimed at was the stage, on which an interesting young lady, Miss Jefferson, was performing. The ball struck the floor near the feet of Mr. Palmer, who was on the stage at the same time. I fear to add more, lest I should draw down too just indignation against the state of the police at Washington. The truth, however, must be told. The ruffian, after parading his pistols, frightening the ladies, who ran shrieking from the house, and defying the police officers, actually went home without being arrested, and has not indeed been taken to this hour. He condescended, however, at the request of his friends, to give up his arms, which consisted of four pistols, two dirks, and a Spanish knife. The district attorney, Mr. Swann, is determined to have the desperado indicted, and when the bench warrant is issued, which will be to-morrow, he will find our Marshal not so easily frightened as the constables at the theatre.- Am, rican Paper. NEW SPECULATION.—The notorious thief-catclier, Vi- docq, is about to establish an information office (Bureau de Renseignemens) in Paris. The prospectus says that the post which he occupied has enabled him to know swindlers and their schemes. He proposes to merchants, bankers, &c., who will honour him with their confidence, to give them any information they may wish for, on individuals pointed out to him, on condition of an annual subscription of 20 fr., or 5 fr. for each application. The prospectus contains the following passage:—"I never meddled with political police in my arduous functions; but having de- livered the capital from thieves, I will now purge it of the swindlers by whom it is infested." We take the following from the Journal du Commerce of Lyons, of the 27th ult.:—"Two days ago a mercantile house was opening some bales of cotton, when to the astonishment of those engaged in the operation, there was found in one of them the body of a negro, bent double and carefully packed in the middle of it." MALTA, JAN. 12,1833.—At Patras, 5th inst., every thing remained in the old state of disorder, and nothing doing in trade. The troops had sallied from the villages to demand their pay, which their officers refused, although they had the means. The Regency and King Otho were expected at Corfu or Brindisi this day and they were anxiously looked for, as the Greek troops threatened to oppress and pillage the town till the last moment.
DOMESTIC.
DOMESTIC. Between two and three o'clock on Tuesday morning, when part of the company were about leaving the grand Marylebone Election Ball, held at the Eyre Arms Tavern, St. John's W ood, the most disgraceful outrages and rob- beries were committed by a gang of well-dressed men, who forced themselves into the lower part of the tavern, without tickets, and immediately demanded cloaks, great coats, and hats, to which they had no right. On the refusal by the per- son in attendance to comply with this demand without the production of the proper tickets, the confusion that almost immediately ensued is beyond description. Groups of gen- tlemen were down altogether on the floor, each endeavouring to secure his own property, and numbers were robbed of their cloaks, great coats, and hats. Many gentlemen were afterwards seen walking home through the streets without great coats or cloaks, and a pocket-handkerchief bound around their heads in lieu of their hats. LIVERPOOL.—The Customs' duties received at this port during the last year have amounted nearly to the sum of £ 4,000,000, being an excess over the year preceding of £ 325,000. This increase in the local revenue exceeds the improvement noted in the same branch of the national revenue. The increase upon the entire receipts of the country was only £ 223,167. TRAGICAL OCCURRENCE AT NORTHFLEET.On Friday last, the jury, after a short deliberation, returned a verdict of Wilful Murder, against William Farmer. The coroner is- sued his warrant against Farmer, who, as soon as he is en- abled to be removed from the residence of Mr. Harman, will be conveyed to prison. Mr. Russell, the surgeon, de- clared him to be a great deal better, but he was not yet out of danger. LONDON APPRENTICE.—A very odd circumstance was stated last week to the Lord Mayor. A master wished to get rid of his apprentice, and stated that the boy acted sometimes in a very strange way. The Lord Mayor said that was a very strange mode of explaining the objectionable points of an apprentice.—The master then said that the boy one day was dissatisfied at something, and taking hold of a knife, chopped off his finger. From such a strange circum- stance, he (the master) suspected that the boy was deranged. -The mother of the apprentice denied that any thing was the matter with the boy's intellects.—The Lord Mayor (to the boy): Why did you chop off your finger ?-Boy: Be- cause it pained me a good deal. I thought the best thing I could do was to clip it. (Laughter.)—Mr. Hobler: Did you think it would grow again ? (Great Laughter.)—Boy: Why I didn't give that a thought. SHOCKING OCCURRENCE.—Sunday evening last, as Miss Onslow, daughter of Gen. Onslow, Great Staughton House was reaching over the table in her own room, some part of her dress caught fire, and she was enveloped in flames. She immediately ran down stairs to the butler, who en- deavoured to extinguish the flames, but for some time with- out effect. Miss Onslow was so dreadfully injured, as not to leave the slightest hopes of surviving many days._ Huntingdon Mercury. ACCIDENT ON THE LIVERPOOL RAILWAY—THREE PER- SONS KILLED.-Friday afternoon, as the three o'clock second class train was proceeding over Parr Moss, on its way from Liverpool to Manchester, the engineman perceived a lug- gage train stationary, on the same line of way, at no great distance before. He in consequence drew up, and stopped his engine before reaching the waggons, which for the time interrupted his passage. The coach train had been thus detained some two or three minutes, when unfortunately one of the boiler tubes burst, and a rush of steam enveloped the immediate neighbourhood of the engine in a dense cloud. At this juncture several passengers got down from their seats (actuated either by curiosity or alarm) and strolled on the other line of railway and now it was that the me- melancholy accident took place. There was such a dense cloud of steam that an engine with a train of coal-waggons came up in the opposite direction without being perceived, and ran over three or four persons, who had thus unawares placed themselves in its way. We regret extremely to state that three persons were killed on the spot-namely, two men, apparently working mechanics, and another per- son having the appearance of a respectable tradesman. A boy also was so much maimed that there is doubt whether his life will be preserved .-Liverpool Chronicle. OLDHAM.—The trade of this town is decidedly improving, and as proofs of a brisk demand for goods we may state that all, or nearly all, the factories are working full time several new mills have lately been erected, and others are in the course of building. The silk trade is more vigorous than usual, and the hatting business growing better; but the con- dition of the hand loom weavers, though they are few, is la- mentable in the extreme-most earning four or five shillings per week, and their families are living on 2s 6d a head per week. THE BAR.—On Thurday last, F. H. Goldsmid, Esq. was called to the Bar, by the Hon. Society of Lincoln's Inn. Mr. Goldsmid being of the Hebrew persuasion, and there being no instance of a gentleman of that creed having been called to the Bar, a Special Council of the Benchers of Lin- coln's Inn, assembled on Wednesday last to consider whe- ther Mr. Goldsmid's religious tenets formed any ground of objection to his being admitted to the degree of a Barrister. The Council was numerously attended, and the Speaker of the House of Commons was in the chair; and, after con- sidering the matter, the Council was unanimously of opi- nion that Mr. Goldsmid ought to be called to the Bar, and on Thursday last Mr. Goldsmid appeared in Lincoln's Inn Hall, and, having taken the oaths of allegiance and supre- macy, was called to the Bar by Sir Lancelot Shadwell. Mr. Goldsmid was sworn on the Old Testament, but did not put on his hat, as is usual with those of his religious creed when they take an oath. The Conservatives are determined to make their strong attack upon the foreign policy of the present Government, and a certain ex-Secretary is to fulminate his anathemas in the brunt of the battle in the House of Lords; but, we un- derstand, it is not intended to divide the House upon these questions.— Sun. About a quarter past nine o'clock last night, some diabo- lical villain set fire to an oat rick, containing the produce of 20 acres, the property of Mr. Child, of Chalk-pit-farm, in the parish of Hurley, which was totally consumed. The rick was situated in a field about 800 yards from the dwell- ing-house, and near a wheat-rick but there fortunately be- ing but very little wind, and the inhabitants in the neigh- bourhood using every exertion, the latter was preserved. A reward of £ 50 is offered for the discovery of the offenders. -Reading Mercury. A Dudley correspondent informs us that a petition is in course of signature there, praying the House of Commons to repeal the Speaker's Pension Act. He also informs us that a meeting of colliers and miners was to take place to- day, a few miles from the town, for the purpose of consi- dering the evils they at present labour under, and the means of alleviating them.—Sun. AN INFANT COMMITTED TO YORK CASTLE.—We have beard a good deal of late about cleansing a certain Augean stable,and verily it stood in need of cleansing—but the Broom las not done its work yet. Will it be believed, in these days, when the schoolmaster is abroad, and when infant slavery is :he subject of general reprobation, that innocent imprison- ment should be inflicted according to the law of our highest ^ourt, calling itself a Court of Equity? This morning the nfant son of Mr. Hauxwell, clerk to Messrs. Dressers and :0., bankers, Thirsk, arrived in York, in the custody of a sailiff, it having been committed to York Castle for CONTEMPT > the High Court of Chancery!! This great offender is welve weeks old, and is accompanied by its mother to give V h breasV Several divines have disputed the orthodoxy > the doctrine of original sin appertaining to infants, but we )eheve that there was never yet found one either mad enough n. or bigoted enough to imagine such capable of actual retrogression. What would the Dey of Algiers think of his beautiful illustration of our Chancery law?—York Herald.
