IN our summer and full month* many sections of our
country are prostrated by BILLICIT)S FEVER and
AGUE and FEVER.—It has been our particular study to
find out some remedy to stop this dreadful scourge, and
think, in this TONIC we have effected this great object.
It is also we think the very best remedy in Dyspepsia,
and if our directions are followed, will not fail to effect
a cure.
In a letter dated, May ISd, 2"IS, our Agent, Mr. Elias
Kauh, of Wrigiitsville, York county, Fa.,says:—I have
never known any remedy for Fever and .dyue equal to
your invaluable National Tonic, it has given universal
satisfaction, and has cured cases of Ague of years otaud
ing, an.l after the failure of all other medicines made use
of. Mr. Henry Bveron, of Ihc same place, says in his
certificate, dated 22d March, I*slo, ' I applied to a number
of I'hyeiciana, and also used a variety of the most popu
lar Ague Mixtures at d.Cerent timet:, but al! without the
Jesirt-d effect; no permanent cure having been afforded.
I was at length induced, at the recommendation of your
worthy Agent at tins place, to try a bottle of your Na
tional Tonic, and to my great satisfaction, before 1 had
used half of it, I felt completely cured, though I contin
ued the use of it till 1 had taken two bottles.' fn a joint
certificate from Messrs. Miles Hoke, William Hlackson,
and James D. Brown, of the same place, they say—'Hav
ing tried nearly all the remedies within our reach with
out success, we at last purchased some of your National
Tome , which has completely cured us. We, therefore,
cheerfully recommend it to the notice of al) persons af
flicted with that terrible disease as the beet remedy yet

" We have uniformly refrained from recommending lo
the public any of tiie various Patent Medicines of the
day, unless thoroughly convinced oftiieir value. Among
those # consider worthy of notice is the German hitters,
invented Ly Dr. Ifoufiand, and prepared by Dr. Jackson,
in Philadelphia. One instance in particular, in which the
superior virtues of this medicine has been tested,has fal
len under our observation During the last summer, a
son of Mn. ABUAHAM GHASM.L, of this county, was very
seriously alflicied with Liver Complaint, and after trying
in vain -various remedies, tie purchased a battle of the
Bitters, aml after using it, was so much relieved of his
distressing malady, that be procured another bottle, and
is restored entirety to health."

" PATENT MEDICINES
"It is very seldom that we make any allusion to Patent
Medicines,either approving or otherwise. Unfortunately
for the country, and for honest and conscientious inven
tors and venders of these medicines, the land is becoming
flooded with quack preparations, that are made alone for
profit and are fit not even for the dogs. In this state of
things it is hard to tell whit h are, and which are not worth
having If a person gets an indifferent medicine the first
time lie purchases, he is very apt to condemn the whole
of them and buy no more, and inventors must only blame
those of their number, (who ignorantly combine plain
medicines together for the purpose of making money,) for
the ill success which attends the efforts of the deserving."
"We believe Dr. C. M Jackson's ' Hoofiand's German
Bitters' to be a most excellent medicine, and one that
should be highly popular in these days of Temperance;
for they are altogether Vegetable in their composition,
without one drop of ,11coholtc Spirits in iheui. This med
icine is innocent, but strengthening in its effects, and rich
1} deserving of an unbounded popularity, which, when it
becomes known, it will, no doubt, fuliy enjoy."

"Or Jfovfiand's Oerman Hitters . Here is a prepara
tion which the leading presses in the Union appear to be
unanimous in recommencing, and the reason is obvious.
It is made after a prescription furnished by one of the
most celebrated physicians of modern times—the late
Dr. Christopher Wilhelm Hoofiand, professor to the Uni
versity of Jena, private physician to the king of Prussia,
and one of the greatest medical writers Germany has ever
produced. lie was emphatically the enetny of humbug,
and therefore a medicine of which he was the inventor
and endorsor may be confidently relied on. lie specially >
recommended it in l.iver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Debility, '
Vertigo, Acidity of the Stomach, Constipation, and all ;
complaints arising from a disordered condition of the
stomach, the liver and the intestines. Nine Philadelphia
papers express their conviction of its excellency, and sev
eral of tlie editors speak of its effects from their own indi
vidual experience. Cnder these circumstances, we feel
warranted, not only in calling the attention of our readers
to the present proprietor's (Dr C M. Jackson's) prepara
tion, but in recommending the article to all afflicted."
MORE EVIDEyCE.
The " PNII.ADRI.PHJA SATURDAY ■GAZETTE," the best
i family newspaper published in the United States. The
editor says of
Dr. HooflaneVs German Bitters:
"It is seldom that we recommend w hat are termed Pat
ent Medicines to the confidence and patronage of our
readers ; and, therefore, when we recommend Dr. Hoof
i land's German Hitters, we wish it to be distinctly under
i stood that ive are not speakingof the nostrums of the day,
that are noised about for a brief period andjtht-n forgotten
t after it has done its guilty race of mischief,but of a med
icine long established, universally prized, and which has
i met the hearty approval of the faculty itself."
Evidence upon evidence has been received
(like the foregoing) from all sec'ions of the
j Union, the last three years, and the strongest
testimony in its favor, is, that there is more ot
it used in the practice of the regular Physi
cians of Philadelphia than all other nostrums
combined, a fact that can easily be established,
and fully proving that a scientific preparation
will meet with their quiet approval when pre
; sented even in this form.
I That this medicine will cure Liver Complaint
untl Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it
as directed, it acts specifically upon the stom
ach tnd liver; it is preferable to calomel tn ail

THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
Old Dr. Townsend la now about 70 years of age, and Las

proved its worth, and known its value. It had reached
the ears of many, nevertheless, as those persons who had
been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pro
claimed its excellence and wonderful
HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many years ago , that he had. bv his skill,
science and experience, devised an article hich would be
of incalculable advantage to mankind when the means
would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, whea
its inestimable virtues would lie known and appreciated.

is manufactured on the largest scale, and is calied for
throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially
as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P. Townsend's, it improves with age. and
cever changes, but for the better: because it is prepared en
scientific principles by a scientific man. Ihe highest know l
edge of Chemistry, and the latest discoveries of the art,
have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture
of the Old Dr's Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla root, it is
well known to medical men, contains many medicinal pro
perties, HI d some properties which are inert or useless, and
others, which If retained in preparing it for use, produce
fermentation and acid, which is injurious to the system.
Rome of the properties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile, ibat
they entirely evaporate and are lost in the preparation, if
they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only
to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these
volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or as an exhala
tion, under heat, are the very essential medical properties
af tbe rout, which give to it ait its value.

Crom Agents who have so:d. and purchasers who have used
S. P. Townsend's FERMENTING COMPOUND
We wish it understood, because it is the absolute fr*U,
that S. P. Townsend's article and Old Dr. Jacob Town
send's EarsapariHa are beanen-tclde apart, and infinitely dis
similar ; that they are unl.ke in every particular, having
not one single thing in common.
As 8. P. Townsend is no doctor, and never was, is no
chemist, no pharmaceutist—know s no more of medicine or
disease than any oiher common, unscientific. unprofessional

that they limy learn and know, by joyful ex]>erience its

Any person can bail or stew the root till they get a dark
solored liquid, which is mere from the coloring matter In
the root than from any thing else: they can then strain
this inslfud or vapid Kqtiuj, with sour molasses,
•nd then call it "SARSAPARILUA EXTRACT or SY

GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S

This is so prepared, thtvi AH the inert properties of tht

becoming arid or o! fermentation, is extracted and rejected; *
then every |irtn !e of medical virtue is secured iu a purs
