GERMAN BITTERS. For the permanent cure of. Liver Complaint, J uundice, Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Chronic Debili ty, Chronic Asthma, Nervous Debility, Pulmona ry Affections, [arising from the liver or stomach,] Disease of the Kidneys, and all diseases arising irotn a disordered stomach in both male and female, such as lernalc wearkness, dizziness, fullness of blood to the head.

THE SYMPTOMS OF LIVER COM PLAINT ARE —Uneasiness and pain in the right side, and soreness upon touch immediately under the inferior ribs, inability to lie upon the left side,-or if at ul[ able, a dragging sensation is pro duced which seriously affects respiration, causing very often a troublesome cough; together with 'these symptoms we perceive a coated tongue acidi ty .of the stomach, deficiency of perspiration, and sometimes a sympathetic pain in the right shoulder, with a great disposition to sleep, and depressing of spirits, and sometimes sores in the mouth or throat causing mucus to rise in the nostrils, Jaundice fre quently accompanies it, ana a Dropsey in the face; these symptoms if permitted to continue will even tually produce that most baneful disease Consump tion ; in fact a majority of such cases originate from the irritating cause above mentioned; Cathartic medicines must in every instance be avoided in the treatment for it. THE SYMPTOMS OF DYSPEPSIA are very various, those affecting the stomach alone are Nausea, Heartburn, loss of appetite, sometimes an excess of appetite, sense of fullness or weight in the stomach, sinking or fluttering in the pit of the stomach, feted eructations or sour rising from the stomach, &c. The sympathetic affections are ve ry diversified. Dyspepsia devoid of a functional nature is without danger, but if arising from a dis ease of ihe stomach il is dangerous. !

M.-D. Moore, corner of Albany, Aug. 17, 1847. Grand and Lydius sts To Mothers and Married Indies. Consumption, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spitting Blood, Pain in the side and breast, Sore Throat, Hoarseness,Palpatatios of the Heart, Whooping Cough, Hives, Nervou, Tremors; Liver Complaint, and Diseased Kid neys, are radically cured, by Thompson’s Com pound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naptha. A LTHOUGH the great fatality of Pulmonary f\ Diseases, at this time shows that there are particular cases that render still too applicable the designation, approbia medicorum —the disgrace ol physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there are stages in their progress, which havingonce been reached, recovery is doubtful. Still no one should despair. The writings of physicians, who' have given to these affections particular attention, abound with many recorded cases of recovery when the patient had reached a seeming hopeless stage of the disease; and there is at this time, a remedy prepared in Philadelphia which has met with the most triumphant and' cheering success in the most obstinate forms of Throat and Pulmonary Diseases —so as to have obtained the sanction and employ ment in the practice of many physicians. Allusion is had to Thompson’s Compound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naptha—the preparation of one, who, having given to diseases of the Lungs and their means of cure, the most careful and thorough attention, presented to the public this great remedy. The soothing and curative power of TAR haß often been observed in severe coughs, and Con sumption. But in the above preparation, beside 3ome of our most valuable vegetable pectorals there is conjoined with it the Wood Naptha, a med icine but lately introduced, but which has been employed with most satisfactory results in England, in Pulmonary Consumption, especially of a Tuber culous form. Read the following from Dr. Young, the eminent oculist. Philadelphia, Jan. 18, 1847. Messrs. Angney & Dickson : —Gentlemen—Hav ing recommended in my practice, and used in my own family, Thomson’s Compound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naptha, I have no hesitation in saying that it is one of the best preparations of the kind in U6e, and persons suffering from colds, coughs, af fections of the throat, breast, &c., so prevalent at this season of the year, cannot use any medicine that will cure or prevent Consumption sooner than Thomson’s Compound Syrum of Tar and Wood Naptha. ~ Wm. Young, M. D. 152 Spruce street. Philadelphia; March 9, 1844.

THIS Extract is put up in quart bottlea—it is six times cheaper, pleasanter, and warranted supe rior to any sold. It cures diseases without vomiting, purging, sickening or debilitating the patient, an« is particularly adapted for a Spring and Summei Medicine. The great beauty and superiority of this Sarsapa rilla over all other remedies is, while it eradicates disease, it invigorates the body. Consumption cured. It cleanses and strengthens. Consumption can be cured. Bonchitis, consumption, liver complaint,* colds, coughs, catarrh, asthma, spitting of blood, soreness in the chest, hectic flush, night sweats, difficult or profuse expectoration and pain in the' side, &c., have and can be cured. Probably there never was a remedy that has been so successful in desperate cases of consumption as this; it cleanses and strengthens the system, and appears to heal the ulcers on the lungs, and the pa tients gradually regain their usual health & strength. Curious case of Consumption. Dr. Townsend—Dear Sir:—-For the last three years I have been afflicted with general debility and ; nervous consumption of the last stage, and did not expect ever to gain my health at all. After going through a' course of medicine under the care of the mcst distinguished regular physicians and members -of the Board of Health of New York and elsew’here and spending the most of my earnings in attempting to regain my health, and after reading in some pa per of your Sarsaparilla, I resolved to try it. After using six bottles I found it done me great good, and called to see you at your office; with your advice ; I kept on, and Ido most heartily thank you for your advice. I persevered in taking the Sarsapa rilla, and have been able to attend to my usual la bors for the last four months, and I hope by the blessings of God and your Sarsaparilla to continue my health. It helped me beyond, the expectations of all that knew my case. Charles Quimby. Orange, Essex county, N. J. August 2, 1547.

It became worse and worse. At last I raised large quantities of blood, had night sweats, and was greatly debilitated and reduced, and did not expect to live. I have only used your Sarsapa rilla but a short time, and there has a wonderful change been wrought in me. I am now able to walk all over the city. I raise no blood, and my cough has left me. You can well imagine that I am thankful for these results. Your obedient ser vant, Wm. Russell, 69 Catharine street. Lost her Speech. Brooklyn, Sept. 13, 1847. Dr. Townsend —I take pleasure in saying for the benefit of those whom it may concern, that my daughter, two years and six months old,was afflict ed with general debility and loss of speech. She was given up as past recovery by our family physi cian ; but fortunately 1 was recommended to try your Sarsaparilla. Before having used,one bottle she recovered her speech and was enabled to walk alone, to the astonishment of all who were ac quainted with tile-circumstance. She is now quite well and in much better health than she has been for 18 months past. Taylor, 127 York st., Brooklyn^ Two Children Saved. Very few families indeed —in fact we have not heard of one —that used Dr. Townsend’s Sarsapa parilla in time lost any children the past summer, while those that did not sickened and died. The certificate we publish below is conclusive evidence of its value, and is another instance of its saving the lives of children : Dr. Townsend —Dear Sir: I had two children j cured by your 'Sarsaparilla of summer complaint ; and dysentery ; one was only 15 months old and the ; other three years. They were much reduced, and I we expected they would die ; they were given up ; by two respectable physicians. When, the doctor 1 informed us that we must lose'them, we resolved to try your Sarsaparilla which we heard so much of j but had little confidence, there being so much stuff advertised that is worthless; but we are very thankful’'that we did, for' it undoubtedly saved the 1 lives of both. I write this that others may be indu ced to use it. Yours, John Wilson, jr. Myrtle-avenue, Brooklyn, September 15, 18-17. James Cummings, Esq., one of the Assistants in the Lunatic Asylum, Blackwell’s Island, is the gen ! tleman spoken of in the following letter: Blackwell’s Island, Sept. 14, 1848. This Extract of Sarsaparilla has been expressly prepared in reference to female complaints. No fe male who has reason to believe she is approaching that critical period, “the turn of life,” should ne glect to take it, as this is a certain preventive for any of the numerous and horrible diseases to which females are subject at this time of life. This period may be delayed for several years by taking this medicine. It braces the whole system, renews permanently the natural energies—by removing the impurities of the body—but so far stimulating the system as to prbduce a subsequent relaxation, which is the case of most medicines taken for fe male weakness'and disease. Disease of the Heart } Rupture and Dropsy. New York, July 22, 1846. Dr. Townsend—Dear Sir : My wife has been af flicted with a disease of the heart, and with a terri ble rupture for over fifteen years, the greater part of the time. She has been troubled with shortness of breath, and great fluttering of the heart, which has been very distressing, and has frequently been unable to leave her bed. The rupture was very large and severe. She tried almost every remedy for such cases with but little benefit. When she had taken but three bottles of your excellent medi cine she was entirely relieved of the fickleness of the heart, and the rupture has almost entirely dis appeared. She has also had the dropsy, and was very much swollen. We had no idea that she could be benefitted as she had such a complication of dis eases. But it has, as strange as it may appear, re lieved her of the dropsy. I am aware that this statement is so strange as to appear almost like fic tion, but it is, nevertheless, sober reality. Your Sarsaparilla is certainly a valuable medicine, and should be used by every one that is suffering as we have been. If any disbelieve this account, they are at liberty to call at my house and have occular de monstration. Yours &c. Wm. Towser, 1 James st. Dyspepsia. Bank Department, Albany May 10, 1845. Dr. Townsend—Sir: I have been afflicted for several years with dyspepsia in its worst form, at tended with sourness of stomach, loss of appetite, extreme heartburn, and a great aversion to all kinds of food, and for weeks (what I could eat) I have been unable to retain but a small portion on my stomach. I tried the usual remedies, but they had but little or no effect in removing the complaint. I was induced, about two months since, to try your Extract of Sarsaparilla, and I must say with little confidence: but after using nearly two bottles, I found my appetite restored and the heartburn en tirely removed ; and I would earnestly recommend the use of it to those who have been afflicted as I have been.
