Any one who : has occasion to visit a
hotel,where_country merchants stop ; may
•
see gathered around each one a party of
young felii-e,i s cniatis'oi prominent
bUSiness est...i.blisliments,;cho by the exer
cise of t . hearty good fellowship hopa - io,
influence his custom -in their favor. It
is part of ilae duty of these men to attach
theniscives to buyers,and amuse them by
initiation into the mysteries of a large
city. Too often country merchants, in
the eA - ,ercise, of that liLerty which absence
from home gives to them, are willims to
indulge in.the worst excesses, ancl the
"drummer" must gratify the appetite of
his charge,, even-though he be satiated
himself— There is no den, however in
.iduituus,,that be must not visit, and, no
vice so degrading, that he must not steep .
ibimSell in it. lie must pander-to• the
taste of his custoMer;, or he will fail iui l o
the 'Clutches of some “drunnuer ' whose
scruples are not so troublesome.. - *- • -
ThiLt merchants can be founcrin
city, who are not only willing but urgent
that their young men should, sacrifice
their self-nspe.ct, and acquire vicious
habits,:to simply sell a bill of Eroods, is a
sad commentary upon the power which
greed for gain exercises, over otherwise
hOin.irable — iuen.
Not only do many , of our ,merchants,
encourage , this thing, but as dissipation
is expensive. they furnish thnfunds: fo
,
'enable' the `'drummer" to foot the bills.
It:is, not necessary to enlarge upon tlie'

..menceinent of. his' downward career •fro'ro;

A Young man had' better cairn a mere
livelihood by hard manual labor,! than
consent to play the part of a decoy for a
mercantile, and ruin his soul and body,
!hereby' ; and a merchant who, cannot
rise to wealth- but by trampling upon the
wrecked characters of his young aicn,had
far better drag through life in miserable
poverty.

Aypr'sSarsaparilla
A compoUnd remedy, designed to be the most
effectual Althrative that can be made. It' is
a concentrated extract of , Para Sarsaparilla,
so, combined with other substances' of still
greater alterative power as to afford an effec
tive antidote for the diseases Sarsaparilla is
reputed to. cure. It is, believed that such a
reniedy:is*ted by .tbose who suffer from
Strinnous Complaints, and. that one Whioh.will
accomplish their cure must provere immense
service to this large class of our afHicted fellow
citizens. How completely this compound will
do it has been proven by experiment on many
of the worst cases to be found of the following
complaints:—
SCROFULA AND SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS,
ERUPTIONS AND ERUPTIVE DISEASES, ULCERS,
PIMPLES, 11LOTCHES, TUMORS, SALT RHEUM,
SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AND SYPHILITIC AF
FECTIONS, 3.llcacuatAr. DISEASE, DROPSY, NET:-
3LALGIA. OR TIC DOULOUREUN, DEBILITY, DYS
PEPSIA AND INDIGESTION, ERYSIPELAS, Rose
OR ST. ANTHONY'S EIRE, and indeed the whole
clas - s of complaints arising from. Inrunrry OF
THE Pr.OOD. :
Eil=2l
This compound will •be found a great pro
moter of health, when taken in the spring, to
expel the -foul humors which fester in the
blood at that season of the year. By the time
ly expul;ion of theni Many rankling disorders
, are ; nipped in the • bud. Multitudes can, by
the ritidlof'thidr 'remedy, spare themselves from
the endurance of foul eruptions and uleerou3
sores, through which the system will strive to
rid itself of corruptions,"if not assisted to do
this through the natural channels of the body
by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the
vitiated blood whenever Ton find its impurities
bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions,
or sores ; cleanse it when you find it is ob
structed and sluggislrin the veins ; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when; Even where no particular disorder
is' felt, • people enjoy better health, and liVe
longer:, for cleansing the blood. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this
Pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something
must go wrong, and the great machinery of
life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla liar, and deserves much, the
reputation of accomplishing these ends. But
the world has been egregiously deceived 'by
preparations of it, partly because the drug
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparations,
pretending to be concentrated' extracts of it,
contain hut little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla,
or any thing else.
During late years the public have been mis
led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart
of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar. Most
of these have been 'frauds upon the sick, for
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsapa
rilla, but often no curative properties whatev
er. Hence, bitter and painful 'disappointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
.Sarsaparilla which flood the market,
,until the
name itself is justly despised, and has become
synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intead
to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the
name from the load of obloquy which rests
upon it. And we thinkwe have ground for
believing it has virtue's which arc irresistible
by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend
ed to cure. In order to secure their• complete
eradication from the system, the remedy should.
be judiciously taken according to directions on
the bottle. „ , .
