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,
Scrofuik, 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 of 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 progress of 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 s than any
gent, medicinal, diatetic or regimenal, that has
yet been employed.”
As we have made arrangements to procure the Cod
Liver nil, fresh from head quarters, it can now be
had chemically pure by the single bottle, or in boxes
of one dozen each.
4ts 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 gennine.
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 highly sanitary, balsamic, and tonic proper
ties of this Vinegar render it far superior to
Cologne Water for the ordinary purposes of the
tailet 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
m 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
it® 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, ami
asperity of the skin; it refreshes and whitens the
skin, rendering it soft and smooth. It corrects the
clammy -and bitter taste of the mouth, imparting a
fresh and pleasant breatb. 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
noesesses many other valuable qualities, which are
i*«tnucci 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, witli a. perfect confidence ihat it will be
found in every to the article prepared
by the original inventor.

adoption—the greatest good of the greatest number
No policy will be disputed, unless under an aci
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 and |
from the States of Virginia and Kentucky, and west !
of the river Mississippi, between the first day of !
November and the first day of July following. And I
to pass from any place or port within the British j
North American Colonies, or United States north 1
oi thirty-four degrees north latitude, without pay- j
ing an extra premium. They are allowed to cross !
the Atlantic in first class steamers during May, [
JuTie, July, August and September, free ofchargd;
during remaining months of the year, 25 cents on ;
each 8100 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 invalidate the policy, except so far as it
was tho 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 within six months on
the production of satisfactory evidence as to the
health of the insured.
When a party effects a policy upon the life of,
hnother, the Company will be satisfied if the party
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 elapse 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
his debtor. If the debt is paid off during these
five years, he can discontinue the assurance alto
gether, having secured the amount, in the event of
the debtor’s death previously, at a lessexpense than
would in any mutual office be charged lor 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

The assured has to pay the premium in all 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 pro
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 percent, than any Mutual Office, and
at the sadie rates of premium charged by the
“New York Life,” “The New York Mutual,”
“Albion,” “Worcester Mutual,” “Connecticut
Mutual,” “ Pennsylvania,” “Girard,” “Penn,”
“New England,” “Hartford,” “Baltimore Mu

The assured being thus entirely relieved of pay
ments (if he is under 35 years of age) before he has
passed the prime oflife, and that for the same pra
mium charged by the Mutual Offices .
The premiums charged by the Mutual Offices
are all on the highest scale, (and by their own ad
vertisements) much beyond what is requisite for the
purpose of their business.
Their “profits” can only be realized, if ever
realized at ail, 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 be 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” (?7?) 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
so, by the purchase of the reserved shares, (firßt
instalment, 10 dollars) which nt all times afford a
good and really profitable investment for capital,
beside a vote tor each sharo. This action the
Trustees conceive must commend itself to the judg
ment of everysinbiassed inquirer, being based on the
broad principle 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 nt 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 per cent., 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.

to the quality of the wheel for the purpose of
grinding, it is far superior to any I have ever u«ed

has .been unusually cold) we have not been affected

the public that has met with such unparalelled
success, as Dr. Scale’s Oriental Ba’lm Pills.
Having been but six years before the public, and
the advertising small when compared with most
other medicines, yet they have worked their wav
mto every State in the turnon and Canadas. They
have dbsoJutely become the standard Medicine of
t e day. They are purelywegetable and so admi
w> y compounded that wheh 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 ill other remedies

Dr ; Converse Invigorating Cordial".
r F‘* IS justly celebrated Cordial is now considered
JL the only efficacious remedy, compounded from
the materia mcdica, 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’ phvsical and social
being;—Prostration, nervousness, dispepsia, pain i
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
pheation 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 inj urc
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.

THE WAR ENDED!!
N D. Townsend abandoned the Fieldl—Old Dr. Jacob
Townsend , vindicated by the people.'
SP. Townsend has at last given up the manu
, 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 the public, by disposing of
lus trade and going into retirement. The fact that
he was NO PHYSICIAN, NO CHEMIST, the occu
pation or a great portion ol whose life was spent as
a WORKER on RAILROADS, CANALS, CHOP
PING WOOD, SAW-LOGS, DOCK-STICKS, See.,
&c. The fact also that his article became notorious
Tor its SOURING, FERMENTING and BURST-
L N |Sr?°i TT ?'? S ’ thercb ) r 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 bo sent out to the peo
ple by some STRANGERS, yet bearing the name
ol S. P. Townsend. Wo have been informed that
these Strangers intend to print on the labels, the
name of some chemist, in order to redeem if pos
sible its bad character of souring, fermenting and
bursting bottles.
Let the people full v understand that no re-vam
ri.iG, no now 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 it 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 Ruei Clapp the
carpenter. 11 3
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 few doors below us in
Nassau street, .the motives and objects of which
we leave others to judge. We understand these
Btrangers 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.
