Townsend has at last given up the m&nu • facture of any more Sarsaparilla, having dis posed of his business to some strangers. Thus the claim to originality and other pretensions, fall to the ground. He.voluntarily abandons them in thus evading the issue before thepublic, by disposing of his trade and going into retirement. The. fact that he was NO PHYSICIAN, NO CHEMIST, the occu pation of a great portion ot whose life was spent as a WORKER on RAILROADS, CANALS, CHOP PING WOOD, SAW-LOGS, DOCK-STICKS, &c., &c. The fact also that his article became notorious for its SOURING, FERMENTING and BURST ING BOTTLES, thereby DECEIVING and INJU RING the sick, and destroying goods demonstrates beyond all reasoning or gainsaying, the fallacy of his pretensions, and the baseless fabric of his claims. Hereafter, it is to be sent out to the peo ple by some STRANGERS, yet bearing the name of S. P. Townsend. We have been informed that these Strangers intend to print on the labels, the name of some chemist, m order to redeem if pos sible its bad character of souring, fermenting and bursting bottles. Let the people fully understand that no re-vam ping, no new botching, no pre-fixing of chemists’ names or'any other folly will redeem S. P. Town send’s souring compound from public odium, unless it is made entirely different from its present char acter ; and if they do this, it will become another ’article of Sarsaparilla, and they might as well give it another name first as last. It should be called the “Strangers’ Sarsaparilla,” and not S. P. Town send’s. But if there is no alteration, the people may still expect the same old souring, fermenting rootbeer stuff, as formerly made by Ruel Clapp, the carpenter. West King street. 2-tf We have felt it our duty to inform the public of the true position of this matter, that Old Dr. Jacob Townsend’s Sarsaparilla may not be confounded with the souring article. In conclusion, we would remark that some months ago S. P. Townsend left his old stand in Fulton street, a first rate store, and sat himself down only a lew doors below us in Nassau street, the motives and objects of which we leave others to judge. We understand these strangers who have taken up S-. P’s business intend to remain there. Such conduct needs no comment. We shall move from Nassau street in the spring, and we will then see if these strangers will follow us as S. P. did. Depot lor the Old Dr’s Sarsaparilla, is now 102 NASSAU street.
