In all Christianized and civilized countries,- has caused a
larger proportion of deaths than any other malady that af
flicts the human faraQj; and, until within a few years, there
b&s not been any certain remedy to atop the devastation of
the destroyer. But now—
BRANT’S INDIAN
PULMONARY BALSAM
Cura very many of the most strongly marked and developed
cases of Pulmonary Consumption —heal, undoubted cases of
ulcerated, and diseased.LUNGS —such hopeless cases as were
never before cured by any other medicine. So uUerlyhope
less were some of the afflicted persons, as to have been pro
nounced by physicians and friends to be actually dying
Some, who hsd their burial-clothes made, have been cured,
and yet live—others, who it was said would not live another
day, are now as well and hearty as they ever were.
It possesses all the cleansing and purifying virtues nearly
as powerful and active as the preparation which we call-
BRANT'S INDIAN PURIFYING EXTRACT.
This differs from that, because this possesses several other
Medications which are peculiarly adapted to, and are essential
ly necessary, to cure
Coughs and Consumptions,
aud all diseases of a oulmonary nature—such diseases as
usually prove so fata, under ordinary treatment, when the?
attack the
Breast, Throat, Lungs, and Heart.
This BALSAM heals and cures Ulcers in the Lungs, a nd
else where internally, as certainly and easily as the Purify
ing Extract cures and heals ulcers externally. This Bal
sam cures nine cases of Cough and Consumption out of ten,
alter all other remedies have failed to do good.
Thousands of Consumptions
and Chronic Oottghs, abu n dantla prove its unfailing iffcacy
in such diseases, and its undoubted curative power, and
soothing, healingproporties.in the following complaints and
diseases, viz.: Sputhig of Blood, Bleeding at the Lungs, Pain
in the Breast and Side. Nighl-Swr.au, Nervous Complaints, Pal
pitation of the Heart. Cholera Infantum, Dysentery and Sum
mer Complaints in Children and Adults, Asthma, and ALL
FEMALE WEAKNESSES AND COMPLAINTS.
No remedy that has been offered to the public has ever
been half as certain end effectual in correcting ALL the inci
dental weaknesses and irregularities of the female 6ex. as
BRANT'S PULMONARY BALSAM. It makes no differ
ence whether the derangement be suppression, eicus, or
other incidental weakness —it regulates ALL, by strengthen
ing the system* equalizing the circulation, and soothing and
allaying NERVOUS IRRITABILITY. See our Pamphlets
for proof.

Dysentery and Summer Complaint
in Children and Adults are always cured. Weakly Children
will become fleshy, healthy, and hearty, and grow rapidly, by
the use of this BALSAM. *
No mother need ever mourn the .death of her child by
CMiolern Infantum, while teething, if BRANTS PUU
MONARY BALSAM be administered. It should be, for
*ue!i cases, given in larger than the ordinary doses.
PUHIFS! PURIFY!
LIFE anil HEALTH' arc in the BLOOD.
Clanw, Purify. nml Rarulalc He Circulation, and
the whole body mil hare health. The most wonderful
of all remedies to produce such a result, is
BRANT'S INDIAN
PURIFYING EXTRACT,
\e3. the desired result and efficacy will be produced hy
the use of n smaller quantity of this Purifier than can he
etlected by the use ol a like quantity of any other remedy
in the world. (See our Pamphlets for proof.)
This Purifier is wholly prepared from Vegetables, and
cures the worst, most obstinate, and long-Mamlmg diseases
of the blood, without puking, purging, sickening', or debili
tating. It cleansts, shengt/uns, invigorates, makes new,
healthy blood, and gives ;«etc vigor and new life to the whole
system.
BRANT’S PURIFIER is FOUR TIMES CHEAPER
titan any other remedy in the world, because
ONE DOLLAR’S WORTH
of it will effect a greater amount of cure than four dollars'
worth of saisapanlla, or any other remedy, no matter how
large their bottles niuy be. Iht* important question lor con
sumers to determine, is, how much more curative effect will a
dollar’s worth of this Purifier produce, than a dollars worth of
that sarsaparilla or other remedy. We might here sov, that
Brant’s Medtctnes had cured, within the last year,
100..000 Persons of Impure Blood Diseases,
and 25,000 Cases were considered Incurable
as some other patent-medicine men nre in the habit of snv
mg. If we should say so, who would believe us ’ This
however, we do say. and stand ready to prove by respectable
witnesses, tliut Brant’s Medicines have etlected cures of
more diseases on living human beings, the past year, than
any other remedy in existence did during the same time.
How much will a Dollar’s worth CURE?
Twenty large, deep Ulcers were cured by using only twelve
bottle? of Brant's Purifier.
The following is the most wonderful nml astonishing cure
that wns ever effected on a human being, by any medicine.
Horrid Scrofula Cured.
Mil J. B. Haskin, of Home, Oneida Co., N. Y., certifies.
Decemlier 20th, 1846, that he had been afflicted with Scro
fula lour years, aud the last year confined to his bed, with
twenty large, deep, discharging Ulcers—that his neck
was eaten around from cur to ear—a hole was eaten
through his Wind-pipe, so that he breathed through the
hole —his ear was nearly destroyed—-the use of his arm
was wholly destroyed—and an Ulcer under the arm, «3
large as a man’s hand, had nearly eaten through into his
Lungs—tliut he had used all kinds of Sarsaparilla ami
other medicines, to no benefit, and that he was not expected
to lire ticenty-four hours when he commenced Brant’j
Indian Purifying Extract—that nine bottles of the
Purifying Extract healed and' cured seventeen of tho
twenty Ulcers he had when he commenced using it, and
that a few bottles more effected a perfect cure. For full
particulars of this, and many other similar cures, see our
Pamphlets.
This Wonderfnl nod Astonishing CURE
does not stand alone as a monument of the great efficacy
of Brant’s Purifier, for we could give almost unlim
ited evidence of other cures, well attested, if this weru
doubted. This cure is certified to by
Fourteen Respectable Witnesses.
By Doer. Thos. Williams, one of the most respectable
physicians of Rome—by Messrs. Bissell &. Leonard,
wholesale and retail druggists—by Mr. G. R. Brown, pro
prietor and keeper of the West Rome Hotel—and by
eleven other witnesses. _ .
Brant’s Indian Purifier
cures all impure diseases of the blood, vi 2.: Scald-Head,
Salt-Rheum, Eruptions, Pimples on the Face.,
Piles. Biles, Ulcers, Costivenrss. Mercurial Diseases, Liter
Compldint. Pains in the Back, Side, and Limbs, Rush of
Blood to the Head. rtc.. etc. '
internal ulcers.
This cure is a triumph over the skill of the best physicians
in the city ot Philadelphia, and is positive proof that
internal ulcers can be cured as easily as external when
Brant’s Purifying Extract is used. Mr. John Hepburn,
one ot the most respectable gentlemen in Auburn, Cayuga
Co., N. Y., informed ua in Oct. 1847, that he had been af
flicted with three Fissures or Ulcers, bo situated inter
nally as to allow of an examination, and thus furnish posi
tive proof of the fact, and of their location. He said that
he had spent one year in Philadelphia, under the’p'rofessional
advice of the best physicians, and was obliged to return tc
Auburn, without cure or help, when Dr. T. M Hunt
druggist, of Aubnrn, advised him to try Brant's Purifying
Extract, and the use of seven bottles of it effected a perfect
CHRONIC ERYSIPELAS AND ULCERS.
, Astonjsuing and most WONDERFUI/.CURE.— Capt. Ezra
Knapp, of No. 37 Willow sL. Brooklyn, N. Y., one of the
most respectable citizens in the city, was afflicted five years
with Scrofulous Erysipelas of both legs, from the knees to
the feet, which inflamed and swelled to a prodigious size,
and ulcerated. Large deep ulcers, apparently large enough
to run a finger in, came into them, which discharged daily
an almost incredible quantity of a maturated substance.
He had had the advice and attendance of several of the
moat skilful physicians, and had tried many highly recom
mended medicines without effecting a cure, and was told bv
one or two of his physicians that the ulcers in his legs would
run him off before long. Brant’s Purifying Extract has
'cured these ulcerated and inflamed leg 9, so that now they
are entirely healed up, und he enjoys good health.
DYSPEPSIA—SOUR STOMACII CURED,
Attica. Genesee Co., N, Y„ Feb. 1, 1848.
M. T. WALLACE & CO.—Gentlemen ; I received a case
of Brant’s Medicines from you, and have been most won
derfully disappointed in the rapid sales made, and
more so in the general and particular satisfaction the medi
cal effect the medicines had given to all those who have
been fortunate enough to try them. I was myself, for more
than a year, afflicted with a disease of the Stomach. I could
not eat any fat or greasy substance without causing great
pain, sickness, and vomiting, and was continually afflicted
with a Sour Stomach. When Brant’s Medicines came. 1, as
an experiment, tried one bottle, which to my utter disap
pointment, eased-atid relieved the usual pain after eating. I
therefore used the saeond bottle, which has completely cured
the disease. lam now well and hearty, and can cat almost
anything without being pained, or the stomach becoming
sour. Please send me another supply by express, as some
who are taking it can not do without it, they have experi
enced so much benefit from its use.
Yours. Respectfully, T. S. WILCOX.

BY virtue of a decree and order of the High
Court of Chancery of the State of Maryland, the
undersigned, as Trustee, will sell at public auction
from the Court House door in Elkton, on SATUR
DAY the 26th ol January next, all that very valua
ble Cotton and Woollen Factory, Grist and Saw
Mills, together with 89 ACRES OF LAND, more
or less, of arable and woodland, being part of the
Real Estate whereof the late Col. Wm. Garrett,
died seized.
$345,888 90
This property lies 7 miles north of the town of
Elkton, in Cecil county, Maryland, and about the
same distance from the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore Railroad, and other public convey
ances to the cities of Philadelphia and Baltimore,
and is commonly, known by the name of
GAR RETT'S FACTORIES
The buildings consist of a Cotton and Woollen
Factory, nearly new—Bs feet long by 35 feet wide,
and 3 stories high ; a Grist and Saw Mill in good
repair; 7 Tenant Houses, to be occupied bj the
operatives in the Factory: a MANSION
HOUSE for the proprietor, together with
a good and substantia! Farm House ; also 1 'Bit
a large and commodious Bam with Stabling beneath,
Granary, Corn-crib, and other convenient and ne
cessary out-buildings, all in good repair. There is
also a good Apple Orchard on the farm. The arable
land is in a high state of cultivation, and all under
good fencing. There is sufficient wood upon this
property to supply necessary fuel.
The Cotton and Woollen Factory has been in
constant and successful operation for nearly 30
years past, with the exception of a few months in
the year 1840, when it was re-built upon an im
proved plan. Its connections are extensive, and it
is well known as one of the very best establishments
of the kind in the State. It is situated on the Big
Elk, a copious and powerful stream of water at all
seasons ol the year. The neighborhood is remark
ably healthy, and noted for the purity of its air and
water. There are several places ,of worship of
various denominations within a convenient distance,
together with well conducted schools. Delaware
College is located in the town of Newark, about
4 miles distant,-and affords an excellent opportunity
for the attainment of the higher branches of edu
cation.
There are no other Cotton and Woollen Factories
within many miles, it will therefore be seen that
this property presents many inducements to persons
desirous of engaging in the business.
Farther description is deemed unnecessary, as
those who purchasing can view the prem
ises for themselves. Any other information will be
willingly given upon application to Mrs. Sarah Ann
Garrett, residing on the premises, or to the sub

IT having been represented to the County Com
missioners by the Deputy Attorney General for
Lancaster County, that a brutal and outrageous
assault was committed upon Mrs. Susan Finefrock,
residing in Manheim township, in said county, on
Friday afternoon, December 28th, 1849, by some
person who inflicted a number of blows upon the
head and face of Mrs. Finefrock with some blunt
instrument, lacerating her face and scalp in such a
manner as to put her life in jeopardy, and it is yet
doubtful whether she will recover from these injuries;
and the same person then robbed the house of Mrs.
Finefrock, and, it appearing also, that this outrage
was committed in broad day, at the side of a public
highway, and in a populous section of the county.
The Commissioners of Lancaster county deem it
due to the ends of public justice, that evory effort
should be made to detect and punish the offender,
and therefore offer Fifty Dollars reward for his ar
rest and conviction.
Mrs. Finefrock describes the person who com
mitted the outrage, as a foreign German, about 30
years of age, some 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, rather
stout, and full in the face, without whiskers, with
long, dark hair, and thinks he was slightly pock
marked. The person wore, at the time, a blue
sack coat, blueish vest, and light colored striped or
flowered pantaloons, a cloth cap and boots'. He
spoke rapidly and in a loud tone of voice. He car
ried with him from the house some receipts and
papers belonging to Emanuel Finefrock, and 87±
cents in silver. JOHN WITMER,

STORE.—Juat received, together with the
latest Fall and Winter Fashions, the largest and
most splendid assortment of FALL and WINTER
GOODS ever before exhibited in Lancaster county,
at M. T. Ford’s Tower Hall Clothing Store, oppo
site Vankenan’s (late Scholfield’s) Hotel.
The citizens of Lancaster county, and strangers
who may be visiting the city, are respectfully in
vited to an examination of this magnificent stock,
comprising an unrivalled collection of uncut Cloths,
Cassimeres, and Vestings; with Overcoats, Sack
Dress and Frock Coats, Monkey Jackets, Pants,
Vests, Shirts, Stocks, Shams, Cravats of all des
criptions, Hosiery, Suspenders, Gloves, and in fact
everything necessary to complete a gentleman’s
wardrobe, and at prices that no others in the trade
attempt to compete with.
Remember, gentlemen, that this is no trade
clothing shop, as the. proprietor has from the start
set his face against orders of all kinds, and conse
quently does not put a high tariff on his customers
for fear they may have a builder’s order, but sell
ing exclusively for cash, he can and does sell his
goods for less than it costs most of the Tailors to
manufacture them. So you see your true interest
lies in patronizing the Tower Hall ofM.T. FORD,
North Queen street, opposite the Franklin Hotel.
