my left leg, which I supposed was a
touch of rheumatism; it continued to
*row worse every day, so that at last
my knee began to get stiff, and could
not bend it; during this, which lasted
about five weeks, I was seized with a
most dreadful pain in mv right breast
which pierced through rny arm. Dut
iu*rthis situation a variety of remc

Sir, Conceiving it to be my duty not to
conceal from the public the virtues of
i vour most valuable Columbian On,
from Wiiich I received so much benefit,
I lam therefore induced, from a princi
ple of gratitude for my recovery, to
give a short statement oi the complaint
under which I suffered. 1 was first
seized in the right Hip with a mAst in
tolerable pain, which seemed exactly
in the joint, and on the day following
a dreadful pan in the back, which last
cd about three weeks; during which
time l could not walk upright, but al
ways in a bent posture ; and il seated in
a chair* the pain would be so excruciat
ing in the act of raising tbat.it was im
possible for me to refrain from scream
ing. My appetite had entirely left me
,nd a constant headache, would some
times almost deprive me of my senses ;
in fact 1 was in a mod deplorable con
dition. A number of remedies were
tried, but to no purpose, I had also the
id vice of an eminent physician, who
prescribed a hot bath, See. which were
regularly attended to, but without the
smallest advantage I had about 9
ounces of blood taken from me. stii»
the complaint, did not give way in the
'east degree. I was then aavised to
try Paul’s Coiu nbian Oil but with
very little hopes of succeeding ; tnen
»o my great surprize 8c comfort, I was
sensible of some ease til my hip on tin
first time of anointing; the next day
the pain in my back aoated. the head
ache left me, and in four days I was
perfectly recovered

Short-hand System.
WHILST I was in Emopein 1792,
a system of Short-hand was pub
lished in Philadelphia. In the adver
tisement of that Work it is said to be
the system “ used by Mr. Lloyd in
i .king down the Debates of Congress ;
\ system so easy that any man of ordi
•. ry capacity m^y clearly comprehend
o in half an hour, and coon practice it
in its fullest extent, without any further
instruction than what will be conveyed
i;i a few pages—the whole art bein?:
comprised in eighteen simfitc characters
ithout anyof those peiptexing arbi
. ary m.irks with which the learners ol
tnc other systems, are obliged to bur
ihen their memory or embarrass their
practice.” This is all very true ; and
i hf> publicatior was attha time patron
ized bv Mr. Madison* ir. Mr. Jefferson.
an I almost all the then members of
Congress, many of those gentlemen
subscribing for ten copies each; but that
system was very far from being per
f‘. t. though some of is secret princi
ples were divuiged ; and everv kind oi
work since primed on this subject, has
taken advantage of what was then dis
closed
I am now about to print the system
in its perfect s ate, intended tor the
use of schools, with such plain instruc
tions for learning it, that a person oi
tolerable capacity with proper assiduity
may write it in six hours, as swiftly,
as the script hand can be written by the
most rapid writers.
