In the large nun her of cases, 505 out of 234, Its use was foi l-wed by marked and unequivocal Improvement, varying in degree in different case*, from a temporary retarda tion of the progress of the disease ami a mitigation of dis tressing symptoms, up to a more or less complete restor ation to apparent health. W " The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most of these cases was very remarkable. Even in a few days the rough was mitigated, the expectoration diminished in quantity and opacity, the night sweats ceased, the pulse became slower, and of better volume, and the appetite, flesh and strength were gradually improved "In conclusion, I repeat that the pure fresh oil from the Liver of the Cod Is more beneficial in the treatment of Pulmonary Consumption than any agent, medicinal, dietetic or regimenal, that has yet been employed " A* tee have made arrangemen'e to procure the Cod Liver I il, froth from h**d tjvar'crs, It ran vote he had chtmienlly pure hy the i nglc hotllr, or in hotee of one. dozen each.

Huofiand'i (Jtrman Ihttm —Here is a prepara tion which the leading presses in the I nion appear to be unanimous in recommending, and the reason is obvious. It is made after a prescription furnished by one of the iriost celebrated physicians of modern times —the late Dr. Christopher Wiilielm Ifootfand, professor to the l*ni versity of Jena, private physician to the king of Prussia, and one of the groat at medical writers Germany has ever produced. He was emphatically the enemy of humbug, and therefore a medicine of which he was the inventor and endorsor may bo confidently relied on. He specially recommended it HI Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, Vertigo, Aridity of the Stomach, Constipation, ami all complaints arising from a disordered condition of the stomach, the fiver and the intestines. Nine Philadelphia papers express their conviction of its excellency, and sev eral of the editors speak of its effects from their own indi vidual experience. I nder these circumstances, we feel warranted, not only in calling the attention of our readers to the present proprietor's (Dr.M Jackson'sVprepara tton, but in recommending tli" article to all afflicted."

This Purifier la the most wonderful and astonishing rem edy in the world. No other medicine has effected such al most miraculous cures of Scrofula, Fever Sores, Salt Rheum, SYPHILIS, and other eruptive and tkin diseases, viz. : F.ry siyielas, Sorts. Ulcers, Ulcerated Sore Mouth and Throat, Nursing Sore Mouth, Scald Head, Biles, Piles, Pimples on the Pace, Rheumatism, LICE ft COMPLAINT, and many other diseases. THOUSANDS of such diseases have been cured by this PURIFIER, and cured by tits use of FOUR TIMES Less Quantity, at Less Cost by four-fold, than ever such diseases were before or stnee cured, by Sarsaparilla, or any other remedy. What, then, is the question for those interested to decide, as to economy anl health? FIRST— WiII it care my complaint/ SEC OND-/* it cheaper / THIRD— Will ONE DOLLAR'S WORTH of BRANT'S PURIFIER effectively cure FOUR TIMES as much disease as one dollar's worth of Sarsaparilla / If it will, then it is FOUR TIMES CHEAPER than Sarsapa rilla. And to prove this we offer one case of cure, out of the many cases of MOST HORRID SCROFULA. To realize the great power of this medicine as a purifier, read, in our Pamphlets, the perfect cure effected on Mr. J. B Haskin, of Rome, Oneida county, N. Y. He was confined to his bed One Year —was not expected to live twenty-four hours longer —his neck was eaten nearly off. from ear to ear—a hole was eaten through the Wind-pipe —his ear nearly eaten out—the use of one arm, aestroyed—nn Ulcer, as large as a man's hand, had nearly eaten through his side—and there were on bitn, in all, Twenty Large, Deep, Discharging Ulcers, which were ALL CURED, and he restored to health and strength to labor again, by the uso of ONLY TWELVE DOTTLES. This wonderful cure is certified to by Fourteen Respectable Witnesses. And it is th<" greatest cure, the moat undoubtedly substantiat ed, of one of the most horrid and most hopeless eaSea of Scrofula, that has ever been cured since the world was cre ated—completely etabUhing the great power and certain -fyary of the medicine.

Lorain t*o„ Ohio, wrote December IS, 1848 : •' Af ter allowing fbe Brant's Medicines which you sent to us, to remain at Cleveland about three months, we sent for them IVe have been so often deceived by such medicines not proving to la; equal to their recommendations, and therefore would not sell, when thejr want of efficacy was known, that we considered it unprofitable to keep such, and were therefore prejudiced against Brant's, supposing it to be uo better than many others we have on sale. After we had received Brant's, I, (A. Holtstander) WHS persuaded from reading the pamphlet to take a bottle of the Pulmonary Bal sam home. My wife had been afflicted with a secure rough tor about ten months, and our friends were alarmed and leartul that she would find nothing to relieve or cure her. But notwithstanding our prejudices to patent medicines, we are obhged to say. and cheerfully confess, that BRANT'S BAI.SAM and PURIFYING EXTRACT, can be depended on in preference to any or all of the many kinds that have been ■ett with us tor sale. My wite was immediately relieved in her cough, and before she had finished using the first bottle, began to gain strength and health, and only three bottles effected a perfect cure. The PURIFYING EXTRACT I have personally used for a general debility of tlie system, and I have no hesitnnsy in saying that it is tlie best medi cine to restore and invigorate the system, that I hare ever found. In every instanca where we have sold these medi cines they havs proved their efficacy, and given the best satisfaction." FOR SALE BY .ILPRF.n M.IRKS, l.nrhtoirn, <•'. I!'. DREHMJLY, McVtytmm, M.

The Sarsaparilla root, it rt well known to medical men. contains many medicinal pro pomes, and some properties which are inert or useless, and ; others, which if retained In preparing it for uso, produce fermentation and acid, which is injurious to the ryitem. Some of the properties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile, that they entirely evaporate and are lost in the preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific peace re, known only to tnose experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or as an ethala- Hon. under heat, are the very essential meaual properties el the root, which give to it ail Us value. SOURING.
