if these are anything like the potions in 5.3 and advanced rogue 2.0,
a potion of flying allows you to pass over traps with no effects and
clear thought prevents you from being confused by monsters that normally
do so.  both effects are temporary (unless there are blessed potions in
5.6).  i suspect that the monsters that confuse are very deep in the
dungeon.  they are for advanced rogue 2.0.
