Bisre Fresh Cod Liver Oil.
THIS new rnd valuable .Medicine, now used by
the medical profession with such astonishing
efficacy in the cure of Pulmonary Consumption,
Scrofoln, Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, General De
bility, Complaints ot the Kidneys, &c., &c., ia pre
pared from the liver of the Cod Fish for medicinal
Use, expressly for our sales.
Extract from the London Medical Journal,
** C. J. 11. \\ ilhams, M D., F. R. S., Professor of
Medicine in University College, London. Consult
ing Physician tn the Hospital for Consumption, &c.,
says: I have prescribed the Oil in above four hun
dred cases of tuberculous disease ot the Lungs, in
different stages, which have been under my care
the last two years and a half. In the large number
.of cases, 206 out of 234, its use was followed by
marked and unequivocal improvement, varying in
degree in different case.s. frbm a temporary retarda
tion ot the progress ot the disease and a mitigation
of distressing symptoms, up to a more or leas com
plete restoration to apparent health.
“ The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most ot these
cases was very rematkable. I ven in a few davs
the cough was mittgated, the expectoration dimin
ished in quantity and opacity, the night sweats
ceased, the pulse--became slower, and of belter
volume, and the appetite, flesh and strength were
gradually improved.
“In onciusion, I repeat that the pure fresh oil
from of the Cod is more beneficial in the
treatment of Pu'monary Consumption than any
gent, medicinal, diatetic o'r regimenal, that has
yet been employed.” ’ *
As wehave made arrangements to procure the Cod
Liver i >it y fresh from head quarters , it can now be
ha i chemically pure by the single bottle, or in boxes
Qf one dozen each.
Its wonderful efficacy has induced numerous
spurious imitations’. As its success depends en
tirely upon ns purity, too much care cannot be
used in procuring u genuine.
Every bottle having on it our written signature,
may be depended upon as genuine.
Pamphlctt cnuuunng nh analysis of the Oil, with
notices ot it from Medical Journals, will be scut to
those who address us free of postage.

fume and cheapness, and in its greater efficacv for
the promo Sion of cleanliness and health.
• T/ 1 * 8 ar^ has been known.and extensively used
in Europe for very many years, where it has, to a
considerable extent, superseded the use of Cologne
Water * u " e ® u^scr iber feels assured that it needs
only to be made known in this country to ensure
its equally general adoption. It has obtained the
approval of several eminent physicians of this city,
to whose notice it has been submitted.
It prevents and removes pimples, tetter, and
asperity of the skin; it refreshes and whitens the
8 “ iD > r endering it soft and smooth. It corrects the
clammy and bitter taste of the mouth, imparting a
fresh and pleasant breath. It cleanses and whitens
the teeth, and hardens the gums. Friction with
this Vinegar promotes perspiration and assuage
rheumatic pains. It allays headache bv application
to the temples. It is effectual .in removing inflam
mation of the eyelids, and in strengthening the
eyes. Applied to a burn it prevents soreness. It
nossesses many other valuable qualities, which are

it necessary to submit them to the public, the origi

We beg leave, however, to call public attention to
the following letter, addressed to a citizen of this
county by the superintendent of an extensive manu
facturing establishment in Franklin county:
April 28, 1849.
Mb. Henry E. Leman: —Your favor of the 25th
inst., is at hand, and’in reply say that the Grind
stones we run with Wortz’s wheel are from 5 to 6
feet high, 9 to 12 inches thick, weighing trom 3 to
5000 lbs. We formerly used an undershot W’beel
12 feet wide and 14 feet high. Our head in an
ordinary stage of the water is about 3 feet, 3 or 4
inches. Sometimes much less than that. With
the old wheel we run- two grindstones. In the same
place we have how four of Wortz’s wheels (3 36
and 1 40 inches,) running four grindstones and one
trip hammer weighing about 80 lbs. with less water
and doing more work in the same time. In regard
to the quality of the wheel for the purpose of
grinding, it is far superior to any I have ever used
or seen used, and for a low head I believe it is the
best wheel in use—during the whole winter (which
has been unusually cold) Wbave not been affected
at all with the ice, and in high water at a Btage
which would stop tho old wheel entirely, we now
find no inconvenience from back water. Any fur
ther information on the subject I will be happy to
communicate, or it you could make it convenient
to visit Chambersburg I will take great pleasure in
showing you the wheels. Respectfully, yours,

and what may facilitate the views qf one man, af
fords no accommodation to another. It appears,
therefore, to the Trustees of the Equitable, that
the greatest good will be effected by that office,
which allows such reasonable advantages to every
assurer , as at the time of completing kis Policy, he
considers to be suitable to his particular case. On
this principle they act, and a few instances will
suffice to show the benefits derivable from its
adoption—the greatest good of the greatest number
No policy will be disputed, unless under an act
, of fraud .by the assured, and after the same shall
have been declared by referees of undoubted char
acter. In case of error, either as to age, or in the
form of policy, or the answers of referees, such
errors, unless wilful and' fraudulent, will not be
deemed to vitiate, the policy.
The travelling leave is extensive and liberal.
Persons insured for life have liberty to pass to ami
from the States of Virginia and Kentucky, and west
of the river Mississippi,- between the first day of
November and tho first day of July following. And
to pass from any place or port within the British
North American Colonies, or United States north
, ol thirty-four degrees north latitude, without pay
ing an extra premium. They are allowed to cross
the Atlantic in first class steamers during May,
June, July, August arid September, free ofehargo;
during remaining mouths of the year, 25 centß on
each I*lloo insured.
, The age of the assured will be admitted on the
policy. If the insured die in a duel, by his own
hands, or under sentence of the law, such death
will not invalidato the policy, except so far as it
was the property of the deceased.
Thirty days allowed after each annual payment
becomes due, and fifteen days after each quarterly
and half yearly premium becomes due, without for
feiture of policy. Premiums or lapsed policies
may be renewed at any time wiihin six months on
the production of salislactory evidence as to the
health of the insured.

When a party effects a policy upon the life of
hnother, tho Company will be satisfied if the parly
aad, at the time, a bona fide interest in the life of
the assured. The policy may be assigned to whom
soever the assured pleases, without the knowledge
or assent of the Company (therebeing no clause in
the Equitable policies usual in the policies of Mu
tual Companies, claiming a right to be notified of
an assignment and their approval obtained) so long
as the assignment or transfer of a policy in the
Equitable is a legal act, and the party who claims
can give a legal discharge , the amount is paid by
the Company.
The extraordinary advantage afforded by means
of the Half Credit system, in not requiring, under
any circumstances, an outlay of a larger sum of
money than is absolutely necessary to secure the
amount insured, is peculiarly applicable to the
creditor desirous of possessing a policy on the life
nis pebtor. If the debt is paid off during these
five years, he can discontinue the assurance alto
gether, having secured the amount, in the eveut of
the debtor’s death previously, at a lessexpense than
would in any mutual office be charged for assuring
the life for seven years. If the debt is not paid he
would be enabled to continue the assurance for the
remainder of the debtor’s life, whatever might then
be his state of health . Attention is particulary re*
quested to the

Ttie'&Ssured' has to pay the premium in hl-1 cases
in advance, and has no liability of any kind,
sort or description. A deferred note is not neces
sary to pei feet any operation, and none will be
taken by the Company.
Persons insuring should bear in mind that a prbK
missory note given to a Mutual Office at com
pound interest, soon amounts to more than the sum
assured. Thus, $lOO per annum for 20 years at 6
per cent., would cause a deduction from the sum
assured of three thousand six hundred and
SEVENTY-EIGHT DOLLARS AND FIFTY-FIVE CENTS.
The premiums of Mutual Assurance Companies
being, as they profess, (though the Mutual offices
“do somehow” advertise guarantee capitals) free
from the burdens of dividends to shareholders,
should be very much lower, than those of stock
companies ; yet the Equitable is lower by six
teen per cent, than any Mutual Office, and
at the same rates of premium charged by the
“New York Life,” “The New York Mutual,”
“Albion,” “Worcester Mutual,” “Connecticut
Mutual,” “Pennsylvania,” “Girard,” “Penn,”

The assured being thus entirely relieved of pay

The premiums charged by the Mutual Offices
are all on the highest scale, (and by their own ad
vertisements) much beyond what for the
purpose of their business.
Their profits” can only be realized, if ever
realized at all, after a lapse of twenty years. The
word Profits, therefore, is an abuse of the term, a
WHOLLY CONTINGENT AND REMOTE PROMISE, for
it is self-evident, and cannot for a moment bo ques
tioned, they must suffer loss by every insurer who
dies before the amount paid by him .in premiums,
with the accumulated interest, shall be equal to
the amount of his policy—nevertheless, in the Mu
tual Offices the “profits” (???) are to be shared in
by the representative, should the insured die im
mediately after one or two payments.
By the diminution of the premiums in the Equi
table, THE GREATEST PRESENT BENEFIT IS SECURED
to all persons assured by this company; whilst
those who wish to participate in the profits can do
■o, by the purchase of the reserved shares, (first
instalment, 10 dollars) which at all times afford a
good and really profitable investment for. capital,
beside a vote tor each share. This action the
Trustees conceive must commend itself to the judg
ment of every unbiassed inquirer , being based on the
broad of equity; and securing to all the
members, the advantages to which they are justly
entitled by their actual payments.; without opera
ting to the peculiar benefit of old standing members,
or placing recent entrants at a disadvantage—a
combination presented by no other office than the
Equitable Life Insurance Company.
The actual Money Bonus given, by the Equi
table, saved, is upwards of 15 percent., at the time
of effecting the insurance; or in accordance, with
the Scrip Bonus of a Mutual office; the saving
is equal to two hundred and fifty per cent.
