232 Dune, we7are not ignorant that to one certain oflcer is confided the entire management of Nova-Scotia and New-Brunswick; and we therefore discover many reasons why a reply has not been vouchsafed to the people of this Colony. When duty is opposed to self-interest, it requires no remarkable depth of sagacityto dis- cover whether of them will predominate: if any influential Oflicer connected with the Colonial Ofice, would sustain injury, either in his own person, or that of his relative, by conceding. a fair and reasonable demand, we ought to judge mildly of his conduct, ifhe should be tempted to play false for once, and if the common surmise be correct, we have another instance ofa pre- dominant spirit of imprudent interference be- tween the people and their Sovereign. The La- giSIature oi New-Brunswick addressed their Monarch—not Lord'Go‘derich: at the foot ofthe Throne did they deign to crave a boon, and not at the desk of a Clerk in the Colonial office; and they could scarcely anticipate the possibility, that the first act ofan utter stranger, to whom the chief authority was entrusted in this Co- lony, would be a recomdation to His Majesty’s Government‘ that the Quit Rents should be - collected.’ Yet such is the current report, and we are inclined to give it perfect credence. This augurs well for the Province; when a man can decide; and equitably decide, an im- portant question. without examining either side of the case, but merel intuition, (or probably second night) we have ' thankful that we are place tection of such omniscient We may possibly give ofl'ence by the severi- ty ofour remarks, but Princes as well as Beg- gars must learn to bear reproof. We reve. rence our Sovereign, and we are disposed to obey his officers ; but in them we look for prudence and moderation, and justice and mercy, and ifin any of these they fail, our at- tachment becomes political enmity—our vene- ration changes for contempt. We know that ere this shall have appeared, the Inquisition will be held at Fredericton, and we deeply deplore the precipitancy of the measure. We need hardly retnin l the public‘that many persons who are interested in these proceedings, never see the Royal Ga- zette;—the public know that numbers of the Grantees in this Province are wholly ignorant ofthe very nature and design of the Commis- sion;—and we are informed, even at the pre. sent moment His Majesty’s Receiver General ‘ is not fully prepared at once to receive payment ofthe Quit Rents. Would it not, therefore, .have been more in accordance with the spirit ofthe British Constitution, to give the delin. quent parties Something like a reasonable no- tice of the measures which are now adopted— but we raise our feeble voice in vain; yet the People shall eventually be heard. We intend, in a short time, to prepare a few more remarks upon this subject, in which we shall endeavour to shew, that the demand of Quit Rent has been uniformly opposed in Nova-Scotia, and that even at the present mo. ment, when the collection is imperioust or. dared, the proceeds aresutfered to be expend. ed in amanner which is widely dili'erent from that proposed for our Province. ’ "’t ‘ THE BRITISH AMERICAN. DR. HUJV'I'S STOMACHIQ .UIXTURE'. The Proprietor of this .Medicine, otfers his services to the afflicted, particularly in afl‘ec- tions of the stomach, as Dyspepsia, Cardialgla. commonly called heart-burn,Pyrosis, or Water: brash,&.c. and in Asthmatic affections, lncipi ent Phthisis, Fevers, 8w. ‘ The result of long observation has led him to this conclusion, viz. that those persons whose powers of assimilation are enfeebled (no matter ram what cause,) must by rapid strides advance towards a diseased state in some of its varieties. Promising thus, he begs leave to observe after repeated trials, he is convinced, that. (if there be a specific medicine for any disease) his chemical Stomachic Mixture approaches the nearest to one ofany he is at present acguaint- ed with. It is not necessary here to pomt out the im- portance of keeping the stomach in good order. It is not necessary to explain how, by apply- ing a remedy at onee safe and efficacious to those suffering under Dyspepsia, Heart-burn or any similar afléction the complaint disap- pears. It Is not necessary to say, why the morning sickness‘gif present to that degree requiring the aid 0 medicine) caused by sympathy with other parts of the system, is relieved by the Chemical Stomachic Draught. Nor why it removes indigestion and ofcaurse sweetens the breath ; the fact of its giVIng reliefin nineteen cases out of twenty, is a sufficient testimony of its merits. Neither is it necessary to reiterate, whythat sort of colapse, so often experienced by the vo- taries of Bacchus, (known bycertain tremulous motions/.12 ad-eche, want of appetite, and real Debilit ,) is relieved, and disappears after ta- king a ose ofthe Chemical Stomachic Mixture: but it may be necessary to say, asa Febrifuge Medicine it bears a palm. In cases of Fever, where hot and dry skin, white tongue, and thirst are present, by adding a single grain of the powder of lpecaeuanha of three fluid drama (about three tea spoonfuls} to the Chemical Stomachic Mixture and dilute with tepid water, and taken at intervals of from three to six hours the most beneficial ef- fects may be expected from it, while toast wa- ter, thin gruel, or any simple diluent drink will accelerate its medicinal effects. To this Medicine are added 12 Pills, 4 of which may be taken occasionally going to bed thev not only have a gentle aperient effect, but have actual y removed severe pains in the sto~ mach, in a short time, and in those Fevers where active purges are improper, these Pills are very valuable. . . The Dose of the Chemical Stomachic mixture is, for an Adult. one large table-spoonful, dilu- ted with water, or syrup and water,to be taken in the morning. If to the dose of the Chemical Stomachic Mixture, diluted as before, a table-spoonful of wine be added, it converts the draught into one ofthe most valuable sudorificsthatcan be used in fevers, for this potent reason, it causes dia- phoresis without inducing cxha ustion. Moreover the proprietor,can with confidence recommend ths mixture, as one of the best Vermifoges (worm medicines) extant. lfa tea- spoonl'ulol‘this Medicine be added to a table- spoonful ofwater. and administered to a child, suspected to have worms, every other morning for eightor ten days. The unpleasant symp- toms attending them, particularly the bad breath, pain in the stomach, irregular appetite the short dry cough, and the a!most daily fever will vanish.
