T" present mode of doing business (we mean
the CREDIT Ihriii.lo is now carried to such an
extent, that it is not - only attended with disaster and'
vexation-ikrthe cash and prompt solvent buyer, by
increasingthe number of his competitors, but, un
less every precaution and the utmost prudence is
observed, the wholesale dealer is involved in diffi
culty, and two-thirds ; at least, who eibark in the
credit business, 'are reducad by ba - debts to abso
lute bankruptcy.
With this•truth before us; we haveAetermined to
change our system of business, by selling.only for
cash, or on very short time for prompt payment; and
beg leave to call the attention of purchasers to the
advantages we can offer as inducements to examine
our stock. • •
- Possessing every facility for purchasing at the
lowest cash prices, and at all times ready to avail
outselves of a fall in the market; watching every
Auction Sale in this, and not unfrequently in neigh
boring cities ; we feel confident el our ability to
sell - , at least, a portion of our stock lower than the
same articles can be bought elsewhere, and the
whole at the smallestpossible advance.
Our stock will embrace every article usually found
in a Wholesale Dry Goods establishment, and we
respectfulty invite your attention, when in our city,
knowing that, with the many inducements we can
offer, we cannot fail to convince the doubting and
incredulous, that the small advance charged neon
the Cost will not include losses by bad debts and
lawyer's lees, or the expenses pf a travelling col
lector; and, to every cash buyer, who will spare
the time to give our stock a careful examination,
we pledge ourselves to sell him a satisfactory bill,
or compel other houses to Ail him cheaper than they
hare ever done before. To conclude, we promise
it shall be our constant aim, in our intercourse
With the retail dealer, not only to make it his inter
est to purchase of us, but, by pursuing a course of
Strict integrity, to merit his confidence, custom and
Influence.

Contemn Ware, Granite Ware, China Ware, and
Glass Ware,
embracing all the varieties ever imported, which
they will sell in laige 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 alarge
stock to select from, ought certainly to be apparent
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 'theiobber 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 you can come

The Art-Union is established for the purpose of
extending a lode for the fine arts throughout the
United States, and to give encouragement to Ar
tists beyond that afforded by the patronage of inch
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
I. Each subscriber of Five Dollars becomes 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, from 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
11Y 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.

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND,
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend SarsapOrilla.
rit.D DR. TOWNSEND is now about7o years of
k/. age, and has long been known as the author
and discoverer of the Genuine Original Townsend
Sarsaparilla. Being poor, he was compelled to
limit 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 of many, 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 appreciate d. 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 bolter; 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 Rent, is
well known to medical nice contains many medical
properties and some properties which are inert ar
useless, and others which if retained in preparing
it for use, produce fermentation and acid, which is
injurious to : the system. Sonic 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.
T. C. WILEY:
tl-13
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 TOIVNSEND , S
SARSAPARILLA.
This is so prepared, that all the inert properties
of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every
thing capable of becoming acid or of fermentation,
is extracted t rejected; then every particle of
medical virtue is secured in a pure and conceatra
ted form; and thus it is rendered incapable of los
ing any of 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
_ _ _
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
more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in
all kinds and stages of
_ _
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.
By removing obstructions, and regulating the
general system, it gives tone and strength to the
whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous
Diseases and Debility, and thus prevents or relieves
a great variety of other maladies, as Spinal Irrita
tion, Neuralgia, St. Vitus' Dance, Sivooning, Ep
ileptic Fits, Convulsions, &c.
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 things be said of S. P. Town -
send's interior article I This youngjnan's liquid
is not to be
COMPARED WITH THE OLD DR'S,
because of one. Grand Fact, that the one is incapa
ble of Deterioration, and
NEVER SPOILS,
while the other does ; souring, fermenting, and
blowing the bottles containing it into' fragments;
the sour, acid liquid exploding, and damaging other
goods ! Must not this horrible compound be pois
onous to the system 1 What! put arid into a sys
tem already diseased with acid 7 What causes
Dyspepsia but acid 7 Do we nut all know that
when food sours in our stomachs, what mischief it
produces ? flatulence, heart-burn, palpitation of the
heart, liver complaint, diarrhea, dysentary, colic,
and corruption of the blood ? What is Scrofula
but an acid humor in the body 7 What produces
all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the
Skin, Scald Head, Salt Rhemn, Erysipelas, White
Swellings, Fever Sores, and all ulcerations internal
and external? It is nothing under heaven but an
acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils all the
fluids of the body, more or less. What causes
Rheumatism but a sour or acid fluid, which insinu
ates itself' between the joints and elsewhere, irrita
ting and inflaming the delicate tissues upon winch
it acts ? 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 make and sell, and infi
nitely worse to use this
Souring, Fermenting, Acid Compound of S. P.
Townsend,
and yet he would thin 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 bea‘r the least resemblance to S. P.
Townsend's article; and which should bring clown
upon the old Dr. such a mountain load of complain
and criminatidns from Agents who have sold, anc
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. Tor - vnsend is'uo 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 genu
ine scientific medicine, containing all the virtues
of the articles used in preparing it, and which are
incapable of changes which might render thein 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 met I.
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 ofsecuring and concentrating their
healing virtues also an extensive system, and how
to adapt reme dies 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

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 medicorunt—the disgrace of
physicians—to this call of diseases; and that there
are stages in their progress,which having once her,
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 net 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 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 Consumptions especially of a Tuber
culous form.
Read the following from Dr. Young, the eminent
oculist. PHILADELPHIA, Jall. 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
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
