Philadelphia China Store
- •
THE subscribers, proprietors of one of the oldest
and most extensive China Stores in the United
States, have now on hand a very large 'supply of
bonunnn Ware, Granite Ware, China Ware, and
Glass Ware,
embracing all the varieties ever impOrted, which
they will sell in large or small quantities, wholesale
' or retail, to suit the wants of the people, at prices
to defy competition.
The advantages to be derived from having a large
stock to select from, ought certainly to be apparent
i to every one; only two need be mentioned :
Ist. The variety to please the taste. -
2d. The advantage of purchasing at the lowest
prices; for it is certainly evident to every thinking
mind, that the larger the business done, the small
er the profit required. It is so in every branch of
trade. The manufacturer sells to the' wholesale
package dealer; the wholesale package dealer
sells to the jobber, and the jobber to the retail
country dealer; so that the Farmer or the consumer
of the article pays at least four profits !
Why pay so many profits when yott can come
directly to head quarters?

Keim, J. Scholefield.
The Art-Union is established for the purpose of
extending a love for the fine arts throughout the
United States, and to give encouragement to Ar
tists beyond that afforded by the patronage of ind;-
viduals. Its promoters believe that these arts can
never attain their due rank in this country (already
so far advanced in many of the other elements of
civilization) until adequate encouragement be given
to the highest efforts of the Painter and Sculptor.
For the accomplishment of this object, the Soci
ety has adopted the following
PLAN:
I. Each subscriber of Five Dollars becames a
member of the Art-Union for one year.
The money thus obtained is applied, first, to the
procuring of a large and costly Engraving, front an
original American Picture, of which every member
receives a copy; and next, to the purchase of Pic
tures, Drawings, or other works of Art, with the
funds distributed by lot among- the members for
that purpose.
Thus, for the sum of Five Dollars, every member
is sure of receiving a fine Engraving (worth alone
the amount of his subscription) and the chance of
obtaining a fine original Painting, to be SELECTED
BY HIMSELF from any public exhibition in the
United States.
For further particulars call at the Painting Room
of the undersigned, where can be seen a specimen
of the engraving, and where subscriptions are re
ceived for the same. A. ARMSTRONG.

Gentlemen — Understanding that von are Om
general agents for the sale of Dr. Upham's Vege
table Elect teary, for the cure of Piles, l have deemt d
it toy duty to volunteer a recommendation in behalf
of that invaluable medicine. I have been afflicted
for many years wnh the Piles, and have tried va
rious remedies, but with no beneficial ellics. In
deed, I ;began to consider my case hopeless. lint,
about the first of September last,-I was prevailed
upon by a friend to make a trial of the above named
medicine; 1 took his advice, and; rejoice to say
that 1 ant not only relieved, but, anal believe, pur
l'eetly cured. 1 most earnestly recOmmend it to all
who may have the misfortune to ki afflicted wilt
that annoying and dangerous disease.
Very respectfully, your Ob'l
ELY NIOORE.

Gentlemen-1 ant constrained to give you a
statement of the benefit f derived front using Dr.
Uphant's Electuary in a case of Piles, by so doing,
I shall render a benefit to those who arc sufferii.o
front that troublesome disease. 1 was reduced for
several years by the Piles so much that it was with
great difficulty for me to walk or attend to my
business. I also suffered front other diseases,
which were extremely troublesome, and which 1
am pleased to say two boxes of the Electuary en
tirely removed; and that my health is better now
than it has been fur may years. It has done me
and my family since more good, and with less ex

plied, or medicine that I have used.
I remain, still in perfect health,

Messrs. Wyatt 4- Ketcham
Gentlemen—l consider it a duty which I not
only owe to you, but to my fellow beings, to speak
in praise of Dr. Upham's Electuary, a medicine
which I think has saved my life, and restored me
to lull health. For several years I wes afflicted
with Piles, together with Dyspepsia, and a general
disarrangement of the system. I eitiployeddiffer
nt physicians, with no good result, and they at
est told me they could do no more for me, and
esaid that I Must die. I thus had given up all hopes
.of ever having my health restored, until I. had
'called to mind the benefits that a nephew of mine
in Philadelphia, (Benjamin Percival,) had derived
in a severe case of chronic dysentery, by your
medicine, that I purchai'ed a box, which, to my
surprise, after taking a few doses, I received great
relief. and thank God, by continuing its use, that I
am now restored to perfect health. -

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND,
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend SarsaparMa.
OLD DR. TOWNSEND is now about7o years of
age, and has long been known as the author
antl discovbrer of the• Genuine Original Townsend
Sarsaparilla. Being poor, he was compelled to
titbit its manufacture, by which means it has been
kept out of market, and the sales circumscribed to
those only who had proved its worth, and known
its value. It had reached the ears ofmany, never
theless, as those persons who had been healed of
sore diseases, and saved from death, proclaimed
its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many years ago, that he had, by his
skill, science and experience, devised an article'
which would be of incalculable advantage to man
kind when the means would be furnished to bring
it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues
would be known and appreciated. This time has
come, the means are supplied ; this Grand and
Unequalled Preparation is manufactured on the lar
gest scale, and is called for th oughout the length
and breadth of the land, esp cially as it is found
incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P. Townsend's, it improves with
age, and never changes, but for the better; because
it is prepared on scientific principles by a scientific
man. The highest knowledge 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, is
well known to medical men contains many medical
properties and 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. Some of the properties of
Sarsaparilla are so volatile, that they entirely evap
orate and are lost in the preparation, if they are not
preserved by a scientific progress, known only to
those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover,
these volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or
as an exhalation, under heat, are the very essential
medical properties of the root, which give to it all
its value,
Any person can boil or stew the root till they get
a dark colored liquid, which is more from the col
oring matter in the root than from anything else;
they can then strain 'this insipid or vapid liquid,
sweeten with sour molasses, and then call it ".Sar
saparilla Extract or Syrup:' But such is not the
article known as the
GENUINE OLD DR, JACOB TOWNSEND'S
SARSAPARILLA.
This is so prepared, that all the inert properties
or the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every
thing capable of beComiug acid or of fermentation,
is extracted or rejected; then every particle of
medical virtue is secured in a pure and conce.itra
ted form ; and thus it is rendered incapable of los
ing any or its valuable and healing properties. Pre
pared in this way, it is made the most powerful
agent in the
CURE OF INNUMERABLE DISEASES.
Hence the reason why we hear commendations
on every side in its favor by men, women, and
children. We find it doing wonders in the cure of
Consumption, Dyspepsia, and Liver Complaint, and
in Rheumatism, Scrofula, Piles, Costiveness, all
Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, and all
affections arising from
IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD.
It possesses a marvelous efficacy in all complaints
arising from Indigestion, from Acidity of the Stom
ach, from unequal circulation, determination of
blood to the head, palpitation of the heart, cold
feet and hands, cold chills and hot flashes over the
body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs;
and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspi
ration, relaxing strictures of the lungs, throat, and
every other part. But in nothing is its excellence
store manifestly seen and acknowledged than in
all kinds and stages of
FEMALE COMPLAINTS.
It works wonders in cases of Flour Albus or
Whites, Falling of the Womb, Obstructed, Suppres
sed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity of the mens
trual periods, and the like, and it is effectual in
curing all the forms of Kidney Disease.
13y removing obstructions, and regulating the
general system, it gives tone and strength to the
whole body, and thus cures all fornis of Nervous
Diseases and Debility, and thus prevents or relieves
a great variety of other maladies, as Spinal Irrita
tion, Neuralgia, St. Vitus' Dance, Swooning, Ep
ileptic Fits, Convulsions,
It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy
action, tones the stomach, and gives good diges
tion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation,
allays inflammation,
purifies the skin, equalizes the
circulation of the blood, Producing gentle warmth
equally over all parts of the body, and the insensi
ble perspiration ; relaxes all strictures and tight
ness, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the
entire nervous system. Is not this then the - medi
cine you pre-eminently need ?
But can any of these [hinge be said of S. P. Town

is not to be

NEVER SPOILS,
while the other does; souring, fermenting, and
blowing the bottles containing it into fragments;

goods ! Must not this hOrrible compound be pois

tem already diseased with acid? What causes
Dyspepsia but acid 1 Do we not all know that
when food sours in our stomachs, what mischief it
produces? flatulence, heart-burn, palpitation of the

ates itself between the joints and elsewhere, irrita
ting and inflaming the delicate tissues upon which
it acts I So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the
blood, of deranged circulations, and nearly all the
ailments which affect human nature.
Now is it not horrible to snake and sell, and infi
nitely worse to use this
Souring, Fermenting, Acid Compound of S. P.
Townsend,
and yet he would fain have it .understood that Old
Dr. Jacob, Townsend's Genuine Original Sarsapa
' rilla, is an imitation of his inferior preparation.
Heaven forbid that we should deal in an article
which would bear the least resemblance to S. P.
Townsend's article; and which should bring down
upon the old Dr. such a mountain load of complaint
and criminations Worn Agents who have sold, and
purchasers who have used S. P. Townsend's Fer
menting Compound.
We wish it understood because it is the absolute
truth, that S. P. Townsend's article and old Dr.
Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla are heaven-wide
apart, and, infinitely dissimilar; that they are unlike
in every particular having not one single thing in
common.
As S. P. Townsend is no doctor, and never was,
is no chemist, no pharmaceutist—knows no more
of medicine or disease than any other common,
unscientific, unprofessional man, what guarantee
can the public have that they are receiving a germ
ine scientific medicine, containing all the virtues
of the articles used in preparing it, and which are
incapable of changes which might render them the
.AGENTS of Disease instead of health.
But what else should be expected from one who
knows nothing comparatively of medicine or dis
ease! It requires a person of some experience to
cook:and serve up even a common decent med.
How much more important is it that the persons
who manufacture medicines designed for
Weak Stomachs,and Enfeebled Systems
should know well the medical properties of plants,
the best manner of securing and concentrating their
healing virtues, also an extensive system, and how
to adapt remedies to these diseases!
It is horrible to think and to know how cruelly
the afflicted are imposed upon by presumptuous men
for the sake of money ! Fortunes made out of the
agonies of the sick! and no equivalent rendered
the despairing sufferers ! For sale by

since I begun the use of .it. I consider it the best
article I know of for those complaints, having de

use of your Pulmonary Syrup. I had contracted a
very severe cold, and with it a violent cough, so
that I would sometimes spit blood; in thiscondition
you found me when you gave Me a bottle of your

have received and also in my family, from the use
of your Pulmonary Syrup. I have used it for Ca
taarrh on the Breast, and from a very few doses
have been relieved. I have also found it a certain

Dr. William Steelling—l take great pleasure in
informing you that I have been much benefitted by

Dr. Steelling—Dear Sir :—There are some things
that impress us very favorably at first, but further
acquaintance convinces us that our impressions

Asthma, Bronchitis, Spitting Blood, Pain in the side

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.
ALTHOUGH the great fatality of Pulmonary
Diseases, at this time shows that there are
particular cases that render still too applicable the
designation, approbia medieorum—the disgrace of
physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there
are stages in their progress, which having once been
reached, recovery is doubtful. Still no one should
despair. The writings of physicians, tvho 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 or cure, the most careful and thorough
attention, presented to the public this great remedy.
The soothing and curative power of TAR has
often been observed in severe coughs, and Con
sumption. But in the above preparation, beside
some 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 : - -bentlemen—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
use, 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

The Great English Remedy.
MBE only original and genuine article for the
cure of Heaves, other complaints of the respi
unrrry apparatus, and derangement of the digestive
atoctions in the Horse, is Kirkbride's
TattersalPs Heave Powders. It is -
warranted to be perfectly safe in all
cases, will not inconvenience the an- *jai
imal or injure him even if he has no rjr.-
disease; it is from four to eight times cheaper than
most of the imitations which are being circulated
throughout the country, being put up in much larger
packages, sufficient to cure an ordinary case of
Heaves, and to•administer in a dozen cases of cold,
catarrh, &c.
At this season, while the Horse is shedding his
coat, his vital energy is much reduced, and he is
extremely liable to colds, &c., many cases of inci
pient Heaves are contracted now, but are suppress
ed by pasture or warm weather, till they break out
with full force , in the fall. Thousands of Horses
can be saved from future unsoundness, if, when the
first symptoms of cold or wheezing is observed, a
few doses of the TattersalPs Heave PoWders should
be administered. They are warranted to wholly
eradicate recent Heaves at this season.
The Heave Powders, given in small doses, will
be found most useful at this season. They stimu
late the skin to cast off the superfluous hair and
produce new; they loosen the hide, give a glossy
appearance' to the coati protect against disease;
they also, from their fine alterative and restorative
powers, purify the blood and renovate the system,
which horses require at this season as much as any
of the human race, whO find a preparation of sar
saparilla useful to correct' the vitiated state Of the fluids, incident •to , the - change Of weather, 'which
in the spring affects all animal as well is vegetable
life. Persons who value their homes will never be

The great beauty and superiority of this Sarsapa

Lost her Speech. Brooklyn, Sept- 13, 1847.
Dr. Townsend—l 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 thntily physi
cian ; but fortunately I was recommended to try
your Sarsaparilla. Before having used one bottle .
she recovered her speech and was enabled to walk
alone, to the aatonishment.of all who were ac
quainted with the circumstance. ' She is now quite
well and in much better health than she has been
or 18 months past.

Two Children Saved.
Very few families indeed—in the we have not'
heard of one—that used Dr. Townsend's Sarsapa
parilla in tune 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
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
we expected they would die; they were given up
by two respectable physicians.' When the doctor
informed us that we must lose them, we resolved
to try your Sarsaparilla which we heard so much of
but had little confidence r there being so much stall
advertised that is worthless; but we are very
thankful that we did, fitir it undoubtedly saved. the
lives of both. I write this. that others may be indu
ced to use . it. Yours, JOHN WILSON, jr.

Could not Walk. •
ThatDr.Townsend>sSarsapatilla is the very best
remedy for female complaints there is no disputing:
thousands and thousands of weak and debilitated
females that were, prostrated by those diseases to
which female are subject were soon in the enjoy
ment of robust health. N. Y. Sep. 23, 1847
Dr. Townsend—Dear Sir: My wife has for tlpc
last year been very sick, and in a greatly reduced
state of health, being reduced•by a variety of corn
plaints such as females are liable to; she got sc
bad at length that she was entirely unable to walk,
and was as helpless as a child; she commenced
using your Sarsaparilla, and she immediately began
to regain her strength, her. complaints left her, and
after taking several bottles she is restored. Being a
singular case I have thought it might do good to
publish it. She used a number of remedies that
done her no good previously. Yours respectfully,

•
Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla is a sovereign and
speedy cure for incipient consumption, and for the
general prostitution of the system-=no matter whe
ther the result of inherent cause or causes, Jirodu
ced by irregularity, illness or accident. --
It will not be expected of us in cases of so deli
cate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures per
formed, but we can assure the afflicted that hur.
dreds of cases have been reported to us.
Dr. Townsend : My wife being greatlydistressed
by weakness and general debility, and suffering
continually by pain with other difficulties,and hav
ing known cases where your medicine has effected
great, cures: and also hearing it recommended for
such cases as I have described, I obtained a bottle
of your Extract of Sarsapaiilla and fullowed the
directions you gave me. In a short period it remo
ved her complaints, and restored her to health.—
Tieing grateful for the benefits she received, I. take
pleasure in thus acknOwledging it and recommend..
ing it to the public. M. 11. Moonx, corner of

To Mothers and Married Ladies.
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, asThis 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 year's by taking this
medicine. It braces the whole system, renew s
permanently the natural energies—by removing the
impurities of the body—but so far stimulating the
system as to produce 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 al
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. Wit. 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: but4fter 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 affticteclas I
have been. Yours Sze, W. W. VAN ZANDE.
