SOROFULA, OR KING'S BVXXm Safely, speedily, and effectually Cured, (As the following most important and well-attested case will prove,) by the use of DR. BRANDRETH'S CELEBRATED VEGETABLE PILLS. THE parents of the afflicted child, to whom the annexed letter refers, feeling most grateful to the proprietor of this invaluable medicine for having been the means of re- storing their son to perfect health, and being desirous of en- abling others, similarly afflicted, to take advantage of the same means to rid themselves of this distressing and torment- ing disorder, have not only consented to every publicity be- ing given to this communication, but are ready and most anxious to answer every inquiry (if by letter, post paid) re- lating to the extraordinary cure of their child, which may be seen, in order that the public may be convinced that BRAN- DIIETII'S PILES, as a thorouglf cleanser of the blood (from the impurity of which all diseases arise) are unequalled, and without a rival. The following is a copy of the letter :— TO DR. BRANDRETH. Newbury, Berks, March 6, 1836. Sir,-In gratitude to jou, and for-the benefit of mankind in general, I beg to make public the following extraordinary cure .—My child was afflicted from infancy with scrofula, or king's evil, being covered from head to foot with running sores. Although I had the best medical advice, his disorder increased so rapidly, that his case was considered hopeless one sore was no sooner healed, than another broke out. In this dilemma, I tried Mo; isot's Pills, for three months but they did my child not-the slightest good.^j& was at length induced to give your Pills a trial, and in the course of a month his wounds began to look healthy, and his general health be- came much improved. Only seven months ago he was fright- ful to took at and he is now as clear from the disorder, and as healthy, asjuiy child can be. I now use your Pills as a family medicine, with the most beneficial effects. I consider I should not be doing mydutv in witlvholrlins -facia from those whp?may be similarly afflicted with scrofula. Mr. J. Rand. Maiket-piace, Newbury, your agent here, uyjl refei anypeMoaAptfte-; and I shalL be mosthappy to convince them of the truth of the above statement. "I remain. Sir, vours obediently, "THOS. HANSON, North Brook-street, Newbury. Witness, ELIZABETH GIBBONS, Bartliolomew-strect, Newbury." ANOTHER EXTRAORDINARY CURE. 10 DR. BRANDRETH. Greenham, near Newbury, Berkshire, March 22,1836. Sir,—I was a dreadful sufferer with a pain in my head and stomach, and was advised to try your Pills; I did so, and after taking three, I felt so exceedingly sick, and some- thing appeared to rise nt my throat; I could not take any more pills, but by persuasion, I was induced to try to take two dissolved in water, and very shol II y afterwards I brought up a worm nine inches long, since which time I have not felt any symptoms of the kind. Your very obliged servant, r. CHARLES IIOBBS." Witness, S. DEVENEUX, North Brook-street, Newbury." It is a well-attested fact, established by the unanimous opinion of professional men of the higl»est eminence, that there is scarcely one family in the kingdom in which scrofula, or king's evil, has not either manifested itself or is lurking in the blood thus rendering it an imperative duty upon all pa- rents and guardians who are anxious for the future welfare of those committed to their charge," to adopt the use of Dr. Brandreth's Pills, which is an unerring preventive where the disease has not yet become visible, and a certain and effective remedy where it has. Testimonials, speaking in the highest terms of admiration and praise of these celebrated pills, from the most distinguished members of the faculty, an almost endless number of cases, in which extraotdinary cures have been performed, and recommendations in favour of these truly and universally acknowledged invaluable pills, may be seen at any of the agents throughout the kingdom. In consequence of the most unparalleled success, and the wonderfully increasing sale, of BRANDRETH S VEGE- TABLE PILLS, his Majesty's Honourable Commissioners of Stamps have allowed the Proprietor (by express permis- sion) to have his name on the Government label; and the Public will observe that none are genuine unless GEO. HODGKINSON, Aldersgate.'street," is engraved on the Stamp,-to counterfeit which is felony. To be had of MR.

-.0. REVOLUTION IN PORTUGAL. LISBON, SEPT. 10, HALF-PAST ELEVEN, A.M.—The Constitution of 1820 was proclaimed this morning, and agreed to by the Queen, subject to the modification of the Cortes. The Government were taken by surprise, and the troops of the line were the first to side with the National Guards, particularly the 5th Capa- dores, of which his Hoyal Highness Prince Ferdinand is Colonel. The Viscount de Sa da Bandeira, and Count de Lumiares, have received her Majesty's commands to form the new ministry. Symptoms of a disturbance were manifested yesterday, about three P.M., when the Terceira steam-boat, from Oporto,, bringing the opposi- tion deputies from the northern provinces, was entering the Tagus; groups of people assembled on the different wharfs, and as the public were prohibited from letting off rockets by an edict from the civil governor, dated the 7th instant-evidently done to prevent their friends from welcoming them on their arrival-they sta- tioned boats on the river, and did so as the steamer ap- proached. At four p.m. the representatives landed at the Placa de Commercio, where a large concourse was awaiting them with a band of music, playing the hymn of 1820, whence they proceded in procession, all wearing white hats. Vivas were frequently given, and at inter- vals Viva a Constitucio de 1820," was d istincl ly heard. At sunset the drums of the National Guard beat to arms some of them assembling in their barracks, and up to ten o'clock every thing was still, without the appearance of a tumult, and it was not until that hour that some secret clubs met, that a revolutien was determined upon, which they very quietly carried into effect by drawing up an address to the Queen, couched in very respectful language, expressing their loyalty to her person, and pointing out to her that the critical state of the nation demanded the Constitution of 1820, and a total change of the ministry, which was presented to her Majesty by a deputation composed of an officer chosen from each corps, at the palace of Necessidades, at four o'clock this morning (where her Majesty arrived from Cintra fast evening), which her Majesty assented to, subject to the modification of the Cortes when they meet. The following is the address which was presented to the Queen, with her Majesty's assent thereto:- The loyal National Guard and garrison of Lisbon direct themselves to your Majesty to renupst rnn ",ill t tJ th.ar,oto;.J, «uni uritjose in general of the Portuguese nation, to provider a remedy for the evils by which this magnanimous nation has been unfortunately carried to the brink of the most horrible abyss, which can only be saved by the immediate proclaiming of the Constitution of 1820, with such modifica- tions as the constituted Cortes may think best. And we cannot help beseeching your Majesty to choose a ministry and councillors that will promote the well-being of the magnanimous Portuguese nation, the constitutional throne of which your Majesty fills. The citizens who have the honour to address this respect- ful petition to your Majesty are fully persuaded that your Majesty wishes nothing so much as the felicity of the Portu- guese nation, and anxiously await on the spot where they aie now stationed, that your Majesty will benignantly accept their request." „„ Barracks of the Carmo, Sept. 10. Majesty received the deputation with that sovereign kindness and benignity that charactclise her; and on being informed of the voice and requests of this loyal people, as- sented to their prayer, has been pleased to dismiss the mi- nistry, and charged their Excellencies Viscount de Sa da Bandeira and Count de Lumiares with the formation of a new one, the latter with the Presidency and portfolio of the War Department, and the former, after being urged by the Queen and his Royal Highness, accepted to the portfolio for the Finance Department. This agreeable news reached the Rocio-square at six o'clock this morning, and was received with the greatest demonstrations of joy the troops imme- diately filed off and marched to the Necessidades-square. where they passed in military array in front of the palace of their beloved Sovereign, in whose countenance unequivocal signs were depicted, how much she sympathised with the general feeling of the Portuguese. "At twelve o'clock a report having been spread that the Queen was wavering, in consequence of the advice she has subsequently received from her late ministers, who are at, the Palace, all the troops with one accord turned out, and marched to the Campo de Curigne, and from thcnce to the Necessidades, when the Queen appeared at the balcony, and assured them of her good faith, with which thev were per- fectly satisfied, and have just returned to their quarters again. Not a single life has been lost in the affair in fact, no fight- ing took place. Colonel Gill Guedes. of the I st Cavalry, was fired at; his horse was shot under him, and he received a slight contusion in his arm. while endeavouring to persuade them last night to disperse."

RUSSIA.- The Emperor of ltussia is not content with augmenting his army by an extraordinary levy, but seeks also to fill his coffers, exhausted by his numerous armies and the system of espionage organized on so extensive a scale throughout Europe. He is at present nego- ciating a loan of 400 millions of rubles in Holland, on the surety of Russian metallic productions, such as cop- per, iron, platina, &c. On the other hand, upwards of 250 millions of rubles will fall into the treasury from the contributions raised upon the russian nobles i:1 con- sequence of the general levy which the Czar has de- creed.-Bon Sens. —

IRELAND. The real evil of Ireland is this:—The landed aristo- cracy of that country have interests directly opposed to those of the mass of the people, and the former, being legislators, legislate so as to appropriate wealth to them- el selves and want to the people. We will not stop to re- mark upon the absurdity of our allowing, in a commer- cial country like England, Property to legislate for, or rather against, Industry, seeing that Property can have no sympathy with Industry, while on the other hand, Industry must have the most anxious desire to protect Property, because all its exertions are directed to acquire it. It is sufficient for our purpose that no man can sit in the House of Commons for any English or Irish bo- rough or county unless lie be possessed of £ 300 per an- num for the one, or £ .^00 per annum for the other, pro- perty arising from land. We well know that many of them possess property in land twenty times doubling this amount; but we will take it at the amount only of the required qualification, and ask if it is not a bribe to that extent to each Member of the House to legislate for the land adversely to every other interest in the commu- nity ? If the proposition be denied, we may, without taking an extreme case, without referring to Ireland, simply allude to the Corn Laws and the various In- closure Bills, which have always passed with such faci- lity through Parliament. The possessors of the land en- vied the people the only little ewe lamb they possessed in the land, and even the right of common was to be taken from the poor man to be given to the rich, for no other reason than becanse-" Much will have more." Ireland, however, is the country we have more imme- diately to watch, and in the course of our future labours we shall take occasion to show how the system has worked there, and also how it has progressed in this country, which, but for the check thrown by Elizabeth upon the rapacity of the landlords, and other adven- titious circumstances, would ere this have rivalled Ire- land in all the abjectness of its penury.— Constitutional.
