 Were they not likewise sons of heaven and earth?" — 

 Book iv. ch. 1.

Benjamin Rush (Vol. ix., p. 451.). — Inquirer 

 asks " Why the freedom of Edinburgh was con- 

 ferred upon him ? " I have looked into the 

 Records of the Town Council, and found the fol- 

 lowing entry : 



" 4th March, 1767. The Council admit and receive 

 Richard Stocktoun, Esquire, of New Jersey, Council- 

 lour at Law, and Benjamin Rush, Esquire, of Phila- 

 delphia, to be burgesses and gild brethren of this city, 

 in the most ample form." 



But there is no reason assigned.

Quakers executed in North America (Vol. ix., 

 p. 305.). — A fuller account of these nefarious 

 proceedings is detailed in an abstract of the suf-

 1733; vol. i. (Appendix) pp.491 — 514., and in

R. DE JONGH'S LIGHT 



BROWN COD MVER OIL. Prepared 

 for medicinal use in the Loffoden Isles, Nor- 

 way, and put to the test of chemical analysis. 

 The most effectual remedy for Consumption, 

 Bronchitis, Asthma, Gout, Chronic Rheuma- 

 tism, and all Scrofulous Diseases. 

 Approved of and recommended by Berzei-.ius, 



LlEBTG, WoEHXER, JONATHAN PeREIRA, PoO- 



qcier, and numerous other eminent medical 

 men and scientific chemists in Europe. 



Specially rewarded with medals by the Go- 

 vernments of Belgium and the Netherlands. 



Has almost entirely superseded all other 

 kinds on the Continent, in consequence of its 

 proved superior power and efficacy — effecting a 

 cure much more rapidly. 



Contains iodine, phosphate of chalk, volatile 

 acid, and the elements of the bile — in short, 



all its most active and essential principles 



in larger quantities than the pale oils made in 

 England and Newfoundland, deprived mainly 

 of these by their mode of preparation.
