Pure Fresh Cod Liver Oil.
THIS new and valuable Medicine, now used by
the medical profession with such astonishing
efficacy in the cure of Pulmonary Consumption,
Scrofula, Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, General De
bility, Complaints of the Kidneys, &c., &c., is pre
pared from the liver of the Cod Fish for medicinal
use, expressly for our sales.
Extract from the London Medical Journal.
{( C. J. B. Williams, M. D., F. R. S., Professor of
Medicine in University College, London, Consult
ing Physician to the Hospital for Consumption, &c.,
says: I have prescribed the Oil in above four hun
dred cases of tuberculous disease oi 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 cases, from a temporary retarda
tion of the the disease and a mitigation
of distressing symptoms, up to a more or less com
plete restoration to apparent health.
“The effect of the Cod Liver Oil in most of these
cases was very remarkable. Even in a few days
the cough was mitigated, the expectoration dimin
ished in quantity and opacity, the night sweats
ceased, the pulse became slower, and of better
volume, and the appetite, flesh and strength were
gradually improved.
“In conclusion, I repeat that the pure fresh oil
from the Liver of the Cod is more beneficial in the
treatment of Pulmonary Consumption than any
gent, medicinal, diatetic or* regimenal, that has
yet been employed.”
vfs we have made arrangements to procure the Cod
Liver Oil , fresh from head quarters , it can now be
ha>! chemically by the single bottle , or in boxes
of one dozen each.
Its wonderful efficacy has induced numerous
spurious imitations. As its success depends en
tirely upon its purity, too much care cannot be
used in procuring it genuine.
Every bottle having on it our written signature ,
may be depended upon as genuine.
Pamphlets containing an analysis of the Oil, with
notices of it from Medical Journals, will be sent to
those who address us free of postage.

The gallery is of easy access—being on the

sections of Market Street, immediately adjacent to
the Baltimore and Philadelphia Railroad Depot.
From his long experience and close observations

Remember, it matters not«*as to the color of the
dress or drapery, or whether the day be clear or

be proof against water, air or dampness of any

ROUgSEL’S
VINAIGRE AROMATIQXTEx COSMETIQUE, ET
ANTI-METHITIQUE DE BTJLY.
THE highly sanitory,balsamic, and tonic proper
ties of this Vinegar render it far superior to
Cologne Water for the ordinary purposes of the
toilet and the bath, surpassing the latter in its per
fume and cheapness, and in its greater efficacy for
the promo tion of cleanliness and health.
. This article 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. The subscriber 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 ot the skin; it refreshes and whitens the
skin, rendering it soft and smooth. It corrects the
clammy and bitter taste of the month, 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 by 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
possesses many other valuable qualities, which are
wraiieii at large in the printed wrappers accom
panying each bottle.
The subscriber having, during a recent visit to
Paris, obtained the original recipe for this invalua
ble preparation, now offers it to the American
public, with a perfect confidence that it will be
found in every respect equal to the article prepared
by the original inventor.

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 :
Chambersburg, April 28, 1849.
. Mr. Henry E. Leman: —Your favor ofthe 25th
inst.j is at hand, and in reply say that the Grind
stones we run with Wortz’s wheel are from 5 to 6
feet high, 9ito 12 inches thick, weighing irom 3 to
5000 lbs; ' We formerly used an undershot wheel
12 feet wide Rnd 14 feet‘high. Our head in an
ordinary sfage 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 now 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) we have not been affected
at all with the ice, and in high water at a stage
which would stop the 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,
THOS- CARLILE.

Lancaster, Pa., June 9, 1848.
Doctor William Steelling:—lt affords me great
pleasure to state to you that I have used your Pul
monary Syrup with great benefit for Coughs, Pain
in the breast, and Bronchitis. It is about one year
since I begun the use of it. I consider it the best
article I know of for those complaints, having de
rived great benefit myselffrom it in those affections,
I have no hesitation in recommending it to all who
labor under similar diseases. I have also given
to my little son with great advantage.

Mr. Harman, a respectable Teacher of Lancas
ter, speaks thus:—
Lancaster City, Pa., Oct. 2, 1848.
Dr. Wm. Steelling I take pleasure in inform
ing you that I have been greatly benefitted by the
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
Syrup, I had not taken half a bottle before I found
myself much reliev’d, and in fact felt like a new
man. I would recommend your Pulmonary Syrup,
to all who may be afflicted with colds or any other
diseases of the lungs.
R.T. HARMAN.
Testimony of a well known Merchant of Williams
town, Lancaster county, Pa.:—
Dr.- Wm. Steelling -Dear Sir:—lt affords me
much pleasure to inform you of the great benefit I
have received and also in my family, from the nse
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
remedy for the Croup and all common colds. I
have sold it at my store for four years and could
give a great many instances of its success in all
diseases of the Lungs and Throat.
Respectfully yours, R. M. JONES.

cases, that I keep at all times three or four bottles
on hand. . W. B. JOHNSTON.”
Rev. William Heilig, of Abbottsville, Pa., writes
thus, June 10, 1842 :
Dr. William Steelling—l take great pleasure in
informing you that I have been much benefitted by
the use of your Pulmonary Syrup; my throat which
has been sore for better than two yearß, has been
greatly improved ; I think by using a few more bot
tles a radical cure may be affected.
WILLIAM'HEILIG.
Rev. O. Douglass, Pastor of the Mariners Church,
Philadelphia, writes thus:
I feel much gratified in being able to say to you
that the Pulmonary Syrup you sent, has been used
by several persons with great success. I can truly
say that almost every one who has taken it has
been more or less benefitted. I cordially recom
mend it to all who are afflicted with a cough

Rev. H. Miller, Pastor of the Lutheran Church,
Trappe, Montgomery county, Pa., writes thus un
der date April 29, 1843.
Dr. William swelling—My throat having been
sore for some time, by using three bottles of your
Syrup, I found it an excellent expectorant, and
have been much benefiitted. H. S. MILLER.
Mark this from the Pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, in Deerfield, N. J.
Deerfield, January 25th, 1845.
Dr. Steelling—Dear Sir There are some things
that impress us very favorably at first, but further
acquaintance convinces us that our impressions
were too exalted. There are other things of which
we think more highly as our acquaintance becomes
more intimate. In this class I rank your Pulmonary
Syrup, and Vegetable Anti-Bilious Pills; which
have been kind friends to me and which I take
great pleasure in introducing to the acquaintance
of others. Yours very respectfully,

CELEBRATED FAMILY MEDICINES.
DR. KEELER is a regular graduate from one of
die best medical schools of the country, and a
practising^physician in the city of Philadelphia.—
We take great pleasure in presenting these reme
dies to the afflicted. They are all of undoubted,
medicinal powers and hold out to the invalid a
promise of relief, such as none others possess.—
They each have been thoroughly tried in a long
succeesful private practice, and have established
for themselves a reputation bnt .few possess, and
given better satisfaction to ,the afflicted than any of
the boasted remedies of the day. In offering them
to the public, the prQprietor is influenced by no
sinister motives of gfflnj but feels conscious that
they are eminently deserving of public confidence.
No medicines ever before the public have acquired
such deserved reputation upon their merits alone,
or appeal with such irresistible force to the invalid.
PURIFY THE BLOOD.—DR. KEELER’S
PANACEA.
For the permanent cure and removal of all dis
eases arising from impurities of the blood, or habit
of thq body, viz: Chronic disease of the Chest—
Consumption, Bronchitis, Catarrh, Pleurisy, Scrof
ula in all its forms, Tetter, Scald Head, Blotches of
the face, Chronic diseases of the Stomach, Liver
and Skin, Cutaneous Eruptions, White Swellings,
Hip-joint Affection, deep seated pains of the Bones,

suffering from obstruction, sallow complexion, ner
vousness, &c., will find the Panacea an elegant
remedy tor their removal.
Read tho following Voluntary Tribute:
Philadelphia, June 10, 1846.
Dr. Keeler—Dear Sir: It affords me great pleas
ure to state to you that I have tested in my practice,
your valuable. Panacea with the greatest success.—
Indeed, I do not recollect a solitary instance where
in it has not acted beneficially. I have succeeded
in curing obstinate secondary syphilitic cases with
it in a very short time, and I believe it is the best
remedy within my knowledge for all the cutaneous,
constitutional and glandular diseases. As a blood
purifier itbas no equal, and I especially recommend
it to all those whose system is debilitated by hered
itary diseases or contagious effections, producing
a lax habit and cachectic condition, such as Scrof
ula Ulcers of the skin, chronic diseases, consump
tion, and all diseases arising from an impure state
of the blood. It is a valuable article for children
suffering from contagious effections incident to
early life. Sincerely yours,

Dr. E. L. Soule.
NO other Medicine has ever been introduced to
the public that has met with such unparalelled
success, as Dr. Soule’s Oriental Balm Pills.—
Having been but six years before the public, and
the advertising small when compared with most
other medicines, yet they have worked their way
into every State in the Union and Canadas. They
have absolutely become the standard Medicine of
the day. They are purely vegetable and so admi
rably compounded that when taken in large doses
they speedily cure acute diseases, and when taken
in small doses they operate like a charm, upon the
most delicate, nervous female, and have raised
numbers from their beds when all other remedies
had failed. We here refer to but a few of the many
miraculous cures effected by the use of said Pills.
Spinal Affection. —Anna Wood, of Rutland,
Jefferson county, N. Y., was cured, after she had
been confined to bed 5 years, with Spinal disease
and Abscess of the Lungs. The bill of her regular
Physician (Dr. Johnson, of Clay,) had amounted to
$6OO. See circular.
Scrofula and Nervous Debility. —Mrs.Down,
of Clay, N. Y., was cured of Dyspepsia, Nervous
Debility, and Scrofulous affection of the head, after
she had been confined six months and all other
medicines had failed.
Cough and Consumption Cured. —Wm. Bently,
of Pickering, C. W., was cured of a severe cough
after he had been confined to his bed for a long
time, and was given up by the. Physicians. He had
used most of the cough medicines of the day, and
was supposed by his friends and physicians to be
in the last stage of Consumption.
Dyspepsia.—A. B. F. Ormsby, of Syracuse, N.
Y., was cured of Dyspepsia, so severe as not to be
afile to work for two years.
Wm.* Smith, of Greenwich, Conn., was cured of
a severe case of Cestiveness and Nervous
Debility, of years standing, after expending large
sums of money to no purpose. See circular.

Oriental or Sovereign Balm, be sure to see before

Dr. Convers’ Invigorating Cordial.
THIS justly celebrated Cordial is now considered
the only efficacious remedy, compounded from
the materia medica, for those sad derangements of
body and mind, caused by improper habits of youth.
The following are some of the effects of the vio
lation of the laws of mans’ physical and soc«al
being;—Prostration, nervousness, dispepsia, pain
in the head, and dimness of vision; weakness of
back and lower extremities, premature decay of
vital power.
Weakness of memory and power for mental ap
plication slight, dejection, aversion to society, tim
idity and self-distrust. Young and middle aged
men may here learn why they are declining in
health; why they become pale, eye-sunken and
lusterless; why they are losing their youthful ap
pearance and manly vigor. This Invigorating and
Renovating Cordial has restored scores of persons
who have ignorantly injured themselves in youth.
It contains no mercury, or deleterious drug to injure
or expose,—no hindrance from business.
N. B.—Compounds of sarsaparilla, dock, and
pills, powders, and other nostrums, effect no cure
in these cases of weakness, and prostration; nor is
the fiction and nonsense in wonderful little books
of any use to the patient.
Sold by Dr. Convers at his office 55, 3d Avenue,
between 10th and 11th sts., New York. Price $2
a bottle, or 3 bottles for $5. Explicit directions
occompany each bottle. The Cordial forwarded to
any part of the country by addressing as above,
post paid.
N. B. —Married persons whose conjugal relation
have not been blessed with offspring, and those
; about to marry, conscious of physical inability,
should make immediate use of this Cordial. Such
: persons may confidentially consult Dr. Convers and
! will receive such advice as their case requires.

THE ORIGINAL DISCO\%RER OF THE ’
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla,
OLD DR. TOWNSEND is now about7o years of
age, and has long been known as the author
and discoverer of the Genuine Original Totansend
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 o
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 ttan
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 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 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
of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every
thing capable, of becoming acid or of fermentation,
is extracted © rejected; then every particle oi
medical virtue is secured in a pure and concentra
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 OP 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, lrom 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 eapy 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
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.
By removing obstructions, and regulating the
general system, it gives tone and strength to the
whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervoue
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, &c.
It cleanses the blood, excites the iiver 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 ?
s But can any of these things be said ofS.P.Town
send’s inferior article ? This young man’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 1 Musi not this horrible compound be pois
onous to the system 7 What! put acid into a sys
tem already diseased with acid ? What causes
Dyspepsia but acid 7 Do we not all know tha
when food sours in our stomachs, what mischief is
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 ? What produces
all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the
Skin, Scald Head, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, White
Swellings, Fever Sores, and all ulcerations internal
and external 7 It is nothing under heaven but an
acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils all the
fluids of the body, more or less. \Vhat causes
Rheumatism but a sour or acid fluid, insinu
ates itself between the joints and elseivhere, irrita
ting and, inflaming the delicate tissues upon which
it acts 7 So of nervous diseases, of impurity ot 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 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 tho least resemblance to S. P.
Townsend’s article; and which should bring down
upon the old Dr. such a mountain load of complain
and criminations 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. Townsend is no doctor, and never was,
is*no chemist,, no pharmaceutist—knows no more
oi 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 m preparing it, and which tire
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 oS some experience to
cook and serve up even a common decent meil.
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 eoncentrating 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

Female medicine.
Dr. Townsend'* Sarsaparilla i> a sovereign and spee
dy eure for incipient Consumption, Barrenness, Pro
apsus Uteri or Falling of the Womb, Cosliveness, Plies,
l.eueorrhcea. or whites, obstructed or difficult Menstrua- '
lion, Incontinence of Urine, or involuntary discharge
thereof, and for the general lyostration of the system—
no matter whether the result of inherent cause, or causes
produced by irregularity, illness or accident Nothing
eau be more surprising than its invigorating effects upon
the human frame. Persons of all weakness and lassitude
from taking it at once become robust and full of energy
under its influence. It immediately counteracts the
nervelessness of the female frame, which is the great
cause of Barrenness. It will not be expected of us,
in eases of so delicate a nature, to exhibit certificates of
cures' performed, but we con assure the affiieted, that
hundreds of cases have- been reported to us. Thou
sands of eases where families have been without chil
dren, after using a few bottles of this invaluable medi
cine. have been blessed with fine, healthy offspring. It
has been expressly prepared in reference to female com
plaints. No female who has reason to suppose she is
approaching that critical period, •* Tht 'lurn of life,"
■dionhl neglect lo lake it. as it Is a certain preventive
for nny of the numerous nnd horrible disenses to which
females are subject at this time of life. This period
may be delayed for teveral yean by using thii medi
cine. Nor is it less valuable for those who are approach,
ing womanhood, as it is calculated to assist nature by
quickening llio blood and invigorating the system. In*
deed, this tnodicine is invaluable for all the delicate
diseases to which women arc subject.
Great to ITlolhera mid Children
it is the safest and most effectual medicine for puri
fying the system, and relieving the sufferings attendant
upon child birth ever discovered. It strengthens both thf
mother and child, prevents pain and disease, increase
slid enriches the food, those who have used it think it ti
indispensable. It is highly useful both before and after
confinement, as it prevents diseases attendant upon child
birth. In Cosliveness, Piles, Cramps, Swelling of the
Feet, Despondency, Heartburn. Vomiting, Pain in tha
Back and I.oins, False Pain*. Hemorrhage, and iu regu
lating the Secretious and-equalizing the circulation It
has no equal. The great beauty of this medicine is, it
is always safe, and tile moat delicate use it most sue*
cessfully.

Pills, Ac., are injurious to females, as they aggravate
