YOUNG, BOOKSELLER, the Corner of Second and Chestnut Streets, A DEFENCE OF THE Constitutions or Government OF THE United States of America. BY JOHN ADAMS, LL. D. Member of the Academy of Arts and Sciences at Boston. VOL. II. As for us Englishmen, thank Heaven, we have a better sense of government, delivered to us from our ancestors. We have the notion of a public, and a constitution; how a legislative, and how an executive is moulded. We understand weight and measure in this kind, and can reason justly on the balance of power and property. The maxims we draw from hence are as evident as those of mathematics. Our increasing knowledge shows us every day more and more what common sense is in politics. Shaftelbury's Charact. vol. i. p. 108. 'Tis scarce a quarter of an age since such a happy balance of power was settled between our prince and people, as has firmly secured our hitherto precarious liberties, and removed from us the fear of civil commotions, wars and violence, either on account of the property of the subject, or the contending titles of the crown.

THE ORIGINAL Golden Ticture, Prepared by Widow DAVIS; BY which any person can cure themselves of that afflictive sensation of pain and uneasiness in one minute, by a tincture made from honey. The fame tincture likewise cures the scurvy, and all scorbutic humors in the mouth, which is the cause of the tooth ach. This tincture takes away all disagreeable smells from the breath, by causing an amazing discharge from the mouth, which is the reason it so often cures swelled faces, pains in the head, humors in the eyes, &c. and ever prevents a sore throat. Many have received great benefit form it, who have been afflicted with the scurvy in the gums, tooth-ach, or if subject to any disorder in the head, as it not only cures the most deadly of pains directly, but prevents them ever returning again. Ladies, Gentlemen, and others, going to and comping from sea, and the Public in general, ought never to be without this valuable tincture, as it not only extirpates all distempers from bad teeth, but makes them better by fastening them, therefore must be of longer service, and prevent the good ones from decaying.

Jan. 30 6t --- Dr. PASCHALL's Golden Drops. INVENTED by Dr. John Paschall, of Darby, in the state of Pennsylvania, which he used in his practice near 40 years with great success, in the following diseases, viz. Hypocondriac and hysteric affections, the incubus or night-mare, inflammations, pains and oppressions of the breast, malignant, inflammatory and wound fevers, locked jaws, mortifications, bite of mad dogs, jaundice, cachexy, bilious cholic, sickness of the stomach, loss of appetite, and indigestion, and may be safely used by women in all their conditions; as they correct the acrimony of the fluids, and sweeten the juices of the stomach. They also relieve painters, plumbers, and all those who work amongst metals, when the arsenical fumes have taken away the use of their limbs (which they call the falling of their arms.) Having used the above Drops more than 20 years in my practice, I find them to be the most universal medicine I have met with, having relieved many very difficult cafes with them. when others have failed; some few of these I have mentioned in the bills that inclose the phials, which can be proved, as the subjects are still living, and many more can be produced. If the dose is too large it vomits gently; if properly proportioned it is a powerful alterative; an antidote to poisons; wonderfully prevents contagious dis., tempers, and carries off the ill effects of too much mercury. The above Drops are now prepared by the subscriber (son of said Dr. John Paschall) living in Wilmington, state of Delaware, where Apothecaries and others may be supplied with any quantity on the shortest notice--The price is 5s the bottle, and 2s6 the half bottle, with a sufficient allowance to those who selll again.
