THIS IS IHE TIME FOR USING
The Genuine Seidlitz
ANI) SODA POWDERS. j
THERE are but few Medicines ever offered
to the public, that hate met with such uni
versal approbation, as the Sf.idi.it* and Soda
Powders, and *he steady and increasing demand
tor them is the best test of their utility and value.
The Seidlitz Powders form an agrohable aper
ient draught, the good effects of which have
been observed in a variety of diseases, particu
larly in those where the Stomach has rejected
all other Cathartic Medicine, consequently they
have been found a most useful remedy in bilious
and other diseases prevalent in warm climates}
their superiority over the Mineral Waters germ*
ally in use is acknowledged by all those who
have used them and much cheaper—a box coni
taining twelve draughts, being equal in effect
to one dozen bottles of Saratoga or other Min
eral Waters, and as economy is the order of the
day, why not exhibit it in the Medicine way as
well as any other, in so doing it would abCOtd
with the times •£.
A constant and fresh supply of the above
valuable Medicines carefully preserved in Tin
Boxes, can be obtained perfectly pure at
the store of FRANCIB I. LAY,
Druggist ....Shad’s Buildings
ALSO, in store,
Saratoga and Ballston Spring Waters, direct
from the Springs—together with a general and

* FROM THE BALTIMORE PATRIOT, June 10.
Washington’s opinion of John Quincet, Adams.
Mr Monroe— ln looking over a file of the
“Boston Patriot,” for 1809,1 see published on
the 29th of April of that year, a letter from the
late General Washington, written eleven days
before he retired from office, addi essed to John
Adams, who succeeded him to the Presidency,
which letter you will oblige an old friend and
fellow labourer in the democratic cause, by
publishing in your widely circulating paper.
Copy of a letter from President Washington, to
Vice President John Adams, dated
Monday, 20th Feb. 1797.
Dear Sir—l thank you forgiving me the
perusal of the enclosed. The sentiments
do honor to tha head and heart of the wri
ter, and if my wishes would be of any avail,
they should go to you in a strong hope, that
you will not withhold merited promotion
from Mr. John Quincey Adams because he
is your son. For, without intending to
compliment the father or mother, or to
censure any others, I give it as my decided
opinion, that Mr. Adams is the most valua
ble public character that we have abroad,
and that there remains no doubt in my
mind, that he will prove himself the ablest
of all Ourdiplomatic corps. If he was now
to be brought into that line, or into any oth
er public walk, I could not, upon the prin
ciples which have regulated my own con
duct, disapprove of the caution which is
hinted at in the letter. But he is already
entered. The public more and more, as
he is known, are appreciating his talents
and worth ; and his country would sustain
a loss, if these were to be checked by over
delicacy on your part. With sincere es
teem and affectionate regard, I am ever
yours, GEO. WASHINGTON.
Vice President.
;<*Bht£RA L WAUHF.N’S ORATIONS.
Front Knapp’s ••Biographical Sketches,”
recently published.
His next oration was delivered March 6th,
1775. [He had delivered one in 1772.]
It was at his own solicitation that he was
appointed to this duty a second time. The
factisiilustrativeofhischaracter, and wor
thy of remembrance. Some British offi.
cers of the army then in Boston bad pub
licly declared that it should be at the price
of the life of any man to speak of the event
of March 5, 1770, on that anniversary —•
Warren’s soul took fire at such a threat,
so openly made, and he wished for the hon
or of braving it. This was readily grant
ed, for at such a time a man would pro
bably And but few rivals. Many who would
spurn the thought of personal fear might
be apprehensive that thejr Would be o far
disconcerted as to forget their discourse.
It is easier t<%iight bravely, than to think
clearly or correctly in danger. Passion
sometimes nerves the arm to fight, but dis
turbs the regular current of thought. The
day came and the weather wSi remarkably
fine. The Old South Meeting-house was
crowded at an early hour. The British offi
cers occupied the aisles, the flight of steps
to the pulpit, and Several of them were
within it. It was not precisely known
whether this was accident or design. The
orator, with the assistance of hia friends,
made his entrance at the pulpit window by
a ladder. The officers, seeing his coolness
and intrepidity, made way for him to ad
vance and address the audience. An aw
ful stillness preceded his exordium. Each
man felt the pglpitatiens of bis own heart,
and saw the pale but determined face of
his neighbor. The speaker began his ora
tion in a firm tane of voice, and proceed
ed with great energy and pathos. War
ren and his friends were prepared to chas
tise contumely, prevent disgrace, and a
venge an attempt at assassination.
The scene was sublime; a patriot in
whom the flush bf youth, and the grace and
dignity pf manhood were combined, stood
armed in the sanctuary of God, to animate
and encourage the sons of liberty, and to
hurl defiance at their oppressors. The or
ator commenced with the early history of
the country, described the tenure by which
we held our liberties and property—the
affection we had constancy shown tba pa
rent country, and boldly told them how
and by whom these blessings of life had
been violated. There was to this appeal
to Britain—in this description of suffering
agony and horror, a calm and high-soulea
defiance which must have chilled the blood
of wit sensible foe. Such another hour
has seldom happened in the history of man,
and is not sut passed in the records of na
tions. The Blunders of Demosthenes
rolled at a distance from Philip and his
host—and Tully poured the fiercest tor
rent of his invective when Catiline was
at a distance and his dagger no longer to
be feared ; but Warren’s speech was madia
to proud oppressors resting on their arms,
whose errand it was to overawe, and whose
business it was to fight.
If the detd of Brutus deserved to be
commemorated by history, poetry, painting
and sculpture, should not this instance of
patriotism and bravery be held in lasting
remembrance ? If he
•flint struck the foremost man of all this world,*
was hailed as the first of freemen, what ho
nors are not due to him, who undismayed
bearded the British lion, to show the world
what his countrymen dared to do in the
cause of liberty ? II the statute of Jirutus
was placed among those of the gods, who
were the preservers of Homan freedom,
should not that of Warren fill a lofty niche
in the temple reared to perpetuate the re
membrance of (ur birth as a nation ?
AN At)DHESS TO THE SEA.
“Hail! thou inexhaustible source of won
der and contemplation ! Hail thou inulti
tudinous ocean ! whose waves chase one
another down like the generations of men,
and after a momentary spacp are emerged
forever in oblivion?—Thy fluctuating wa
ters wash the varied shores of the world,
and while they disjoin nations, whom a
nearer connexion would involve in eternal
war, they circulate their arts, and their la
bours, and give health and plenty to man
kind.
“ How glorious ! How awful Ure the
scenes thou displayest! Whether we view
thee when every w ind is hushed—when the
morning sun, as now, silvers the level line
of the horizon,—or when its evening track
ia marked with flaming gold, and thy uu
rippted bosom reflect* the radianed of the
overarching Heavens!—Or whether we be
hold thee in thy terrors! —when the black
tempest sweeps thy swelling billows, nod
the boiling surge mixes with the clouds,
—when death rides the storm, —and hu
manity drops a fruitless tear for the toil
ing mariner, whose heart it sinking with,
dismay!—
“ And yet, mighty deep! *tis thy surface
alone we view—Who can penetrate the se
crets of tby wide domain r—What tyu can
visit thy immense rocks and caverns, that
teem with life end vegetation ?—Or search
out the myriads of objects, Whose beauties
lie scattered over tby dread abimes ?
“The mind flaggers with the immensity
of her own conceptions,—and when the
contemplates the flux and reflux of the
tides, which from the beginning of the
world were never known to err, how does
she Shrink at the idea of that Divine Pow
er, which origina}ly laid thy foundation so
sure, and whose omnipotent voice hath fix*
ed the limits where thy proud waves shall
be stayed.”
Extraordinary incubation.— A hen tur
key belonging to Mrs. Delia Deplume, of
the goosefeather warehouse, Pigenn-row,
Allpluck-st. had been sitting the usual pe
riod on a dozen of duck’s egg*, when it
seemed from external appearance, that no
effect had been produced. The incubation
was continued by the turkey to the exten
ded period of nine days longer, when, as
tonishing to relate, on the lien’s leaving
the nest, it Was discovered she had hatched
and brought forth one grey owl, two guinea
pigs, a poodle poppy, a black rabbit, a cock
pheasant, two tortoise-shell tom-cats, and
a female blue. liXard ; the tenth egg. produ
ced three conger eels ; and the eleventh
egg a full-grown magpie with four hfeadi!
The shell of the twelfth egg remained per
fect, with only the trifling difference of ita
having been increased to the size of a large
melon; which egg, when opened, waa found
to contain a double set of gbose giblets com
plete, and fit for tbtbaking dish!!! They
are all living, except the giblets, which
were made into a pic, and baked, and eat
en the same day; and the old turkey hen
continues to be most affectionately atten
tive to tbe whole brood.
