less the power, bat it is oar imperative duty to
construct eaob % road. - It woald be sn absurdity:
to invest a government with the anllmited power
to make - and oondnot war, and at the same
time deny to it the only means of reaching and de
feating the enemy at the frontier. Without such a
road it is quite evident we cannot “proteot” Cali
fornia and our Pacific possessions “against inva
sion.” We cannot by any other means transport
men and mnnitions : ofwar from the Atlaatio States
in sufficient time successfully to defend those re
mote and distant portions of the republic..
The difioulties and tbe expense of constructing
a military railroad to oonnect our Atlantic and Pa
cific States, have been greatly exaggerated. The
distance on the Arizona route near the 32d paral
lel of north latitude, between the western boundary
of Texas on the Rio Grande and the eastern bound
ary of California on the Colorado, from the best
explorations now within oar knowledge, does not
exceed four hundred and seventy miles, and the
face of the country is, in the 'main, favorable.
For obviouß reasons the government ought not to
undertake the work itself by means of its own
agent. This ought to be committed to other
agencies, which Congress might assist either by
grants of land or money, or both, upon each terms
and conditions as they may deem most benificial
for the country. Provision might thus be made
not only for the safe, rapid, end economical trans
portation of troops and monitions of war, but also
of the public mails. The commercial interests of
the whole country, both East and Wefet, would be
- greatly promoted by suoh a road ; and, above a'l,
'it would be a powerful additional bond of union.
And although advantages of this kind, whether
postal, commercial, or political, cannot confer
constitutional power, yet they may furnish auxilli
ary arguments in favor of expediting a work which,
in my judgment, is clearly embraced within the
war-making power.
For these reasons I commend to the friendly
consideration of Congress, the subject of the Pa
cific railroad, without finally committing myself to
any particular route.
The report of the Secretary of the Treasury will
furnish a detailed statement of the condition of the
public finances and of the respective branches of
the publio service devolved upon that department
of the government. By this report it appears that
the amount of revenue received from all sources
into the treasury during the fiscal jtear ending the
30th June, 1857, was sixty-eight millions, six
hundred and thirty-one thousand, five hundred
and thirteen dollars and sixty-seven cents, ($68,-
631,513.67,) which amount, with the balance of
nineteen millions, nine hundred and one thousand,
three hundred and twenty-five dollars and forty
five cents, ($19,901,325.45,Remaining in the treas
ury at the commencement of the year, made an
aggregate for the service of the year of eighty
eight million, five hundred and thirty-two thousand
eight hundred and thirty nine dollars and twelve
cents, ($88,532,839.12.)
The public expenditures for the fiscal year end
ing 30th June, 1857, amounted to seventy million
eight hundred and twenty-two thousand seven
hundred and twenty-foUr dollars and eighty-five
cents, ($70,822,624.85,) of which five million nine
hundred and forty-three thousand eight hundred
and ninety-six dollars and ninety-one cents ($5,
943,896.91) were applied to the redemption of the
public debt, including interest and premium, leav
ing in the treasury at the commencement of the
present year on the Ist July, 1857, seventeen mil
lion seven hundred and ten thousand one hundred
and fourteen dollars and twenty-seven cents, ($l7,
710,114.27.)
The receipts into the treasurv for the firct quar
ter of the present fiscal year, commencing the first
July, 1857, were twenty million uine hundred and
twenty-nine thousand, eight hundred and nineteen
dollars aW,eighty-one cents, ($20,929,819.81,) and
the estimated receipts of the remaining three quar
ters to the 30th June, 1858, are thirty six millions
seven huodred and fifty thousand dollars, ($36,-
750,000,) making with the balance before stated
an aggregate of seventy-five million, three hundred
and eighty-nine thousand nine hundred and thirty,
four dollars and eight cents, ($75,389,934.08,) for
the service of the present fiscal year.
The actual expenditures during the first quarter
of the present fiscal year were twenty-three mil
lions seven hundred and fourteen thousand five
hundred and twenty-eight dollars and thirty-seven
cents, ($23,714,528,37,) of which thre million eight
hundred and ninety-five thousand two hundred
and thirty-two dollars and thirty-nine cents ($3,-
895,232-39) were applied to the redemption of the
public debt, including interest and premium. The
probable expenditures of the remaining three
quarters to 30th of June, 1858, are fifty-one mil
lion two hundred and forty-eight thousand five
hundred and thirty dollars and four cents (51,248,-
530 04,) including- interest on the public debt,
making an aggregate of seventy four million nine
hundred and sixty three thousand fifty-eight dol
lars and forty-one cents, ($74,963,058,41,) leaving
an estimated balance in the treasury at the close
of the present fiscal year of four hundred and
wenty-six thousand eight hundred and seven
ty five dollars and sixty-seven cents, ($426,875.67.)
The amount of the public debt at the commence
ment of the present fiscal year was twenty-nine
millions sixty thousand three hundred and eighty
six dollars and ninety cents ($9,060,366 90.
The amount redeemed since the first of July was
3,895,232.39, leaving a balance unredeemed at this
time of $25,165,154.51.
The amount of estimated expenditures for the
remaining three quarters of the present fiaoal year
will, in all probability, be increased from the
oauses set forth in the report of the Secretary. His
suggestion, therefore, that authority should be
given to supply any temporary deficiency by the
issue of a limited amount of treasury notes; is ap
proved, and I accordingly recommend the passage
of Buoh a law.
Aa stated in the report of the Secretary,the tariff
of Maroh 3, 1857, has been in operation for so short
a period of time, and under circnmstances so un
favorable to a just development of its results as a
revenue measure, that I should regard it as inex
pedient, at least for the present, to undertake its
revision.
I transmit herewith the reports made to me by
the Secretaries of War and of the'Navy, of the In
terior and of the Postmaster General. They all
oontain valuable and important information and
suggestions which I commend to the favorable con
sideration of Congress.
I have already recommended the raising of four
additional regiments and the report of the Secre
tary of War presents strong reasons proving this
inorease of the army, under existing circumstances
to be indispensable.
I would oall the special attention of Congress to
the recommendation of the Secretary of the Navy
in favor of tbe construction of ten small war steam
ers of light draught. For some years the govern
ment has been obliged on many occasions, to hire
such steamers from individuals, to supply its pres
sing wants. At the present moment we have no
armed vessels in the navy which can penetrate the
rivers of, China. We have but few which can en.
ter any of the harbors south of Norfolk, although
many millions of foreign and domestio commerce
annually pas 3 in and oat of these harbors. Some
of our most valuable interests and most vulnerable
points are thus left exposed. This class of vessels,
of light draught, great speed and heavy guns,
would be forsidable in coast defence The cost
of their construction will not be great and they
will require but a comparatively small expenditure
to keep them in commission. In time of peace
they will prove as effective as much larger vessels,
and often more useful One of them should be at
every station where we maintain a squadron, and
three or four should be constantly on our Atlantio
and Pacific coasts. Economy, utility and efficiency
oombine to reoommend them as almost indispensa
ble. Ten of these small vessels would be of incal
culable advantage to the naval service, and the
whole oost of their construction would not exceed
two million three hundred thousand dollars, or
$230,000 each
The report of the Secretary of the Interior is
worthy of grave consideration. It treats of the
numerous, important, and diversified branches of
domestic administration intrusted to him by law.
Among these the most prominent are the public
lands and our relations with the Indians.
Our system for the disposal of the public lands,
originating with the fathers of the republic, has
been improved as experience pointed the way, and
gradually adaptod to the growth and settlement of
our western States and Territories. It has worked
well in practice. Already thirteen States and seven
Territories have been carved out of these lands,
and still more than a thousand millions of acres
remain unsold. What a boundless prospect this
presents to our country of future prosperity and
power.
We have heretofore disposed of 363,862,464
acres of the publio land.
While the public lands as a source of revenue
are of great importance, their importance is far
greater as furnishing homes for a hardy and in
dependent race of honest and industrious citizens
who desire to subdue and cultivate the soil. They
ought to be administered mainly with a view of
promoting this wise and benevolent polioy. In
appropriating them for any other purpose, we
ought to use even greater economy than if they
had been converted into money, and the proceeds
were already in the public treasury. To squander
away this richest and noblest inheritance which
any people have ever enjoyed upon objects of
doubtlul constitutionality or expediency, would be
' to violate one of the most important trusts ever
committed to any people. Whilst I do not deny
to Congress the power, when acting bona fide as a
proprietor, to give away portions of them for the
purpose of increasing the value of the remainder,
yet, considering the great temptation to abuse this
power, we cannot be too cautions in its exercise.
Actual settlers under the existing laws are pro
tected against other purchasers at the public sales,
in their right of pre-emption, to the extent of a
quarter section, or 160 acres of land. The re
mainder may then be disposed of at public or en
tered at private sale in unlimited quantities.
Speculation has of late years prevailed to a great
extent in the public land. The consequence has
been that large portions of them have become the
property of individuals and companies, and thus
the price is greatly enhanced to those who desire
to purchase for actual settlement. In order to
limit the area of speculation as much as possible
the extinction of the Indian title and the extension
of the publio surveys ought only to keep pace with
the tide of emigration*
The extension of our limits has brought within our
jurisdiction many additional and populous tribes of la
dians, a large proportion of which are wild, ontr&ctable
and difficult to control. Predatory and warlike in their
disposition and habits, It is Impossible altogether to re
• strain, them from committing aggressions on each other, 1
aa well as upon our frontier citizens and those emigrat
j* ** States and Territories. Hence expen
stye military expeditions are frequently necessary to
the more lawless and hostile.

1 The tribes of Cherokeee, Choctaws, Chlclaaaws,
Creeks, settled in the territory set apart for them west ot
l Arkansas, are rapidly advancing in education and in all
the arte of civilisation and self-government; and we may
indulge the agreeable anticipation that at no very distant
day they will be incorporated into the union as one of
the sovereign State*. t j[
It will be seen from the report of the Postmaster Gen
eral. that the Po*t Office Department still continues to
depend on the Treasury, as it has been compelled to do
fur several years past, for an important portion of the
means of sustaining and extending its operations. Their
rapid growth and expansion are shown by A decenni ,
statement of the numberof post offices, and the length or
post roads, commencing with they ear 1827. Ca that ye-f
there were 7000 post offices; in 1837, 11,177 ; in 1847,15 a
l •« and In 1857, they number 26,586. In this year 1725
post offices have been established, and 704 discontinued,
leaving a net increase of 1021. The postmasters of 358
offices are appointed by the President. ;j
The length of post rohds in 1827 was 105,33$ miles ; In
1837, 141,242 miles; in 1847,153,816 miles; mid in the
year 1857, there are 242,601 miles of poet road, Including
22,630 miles of railroad, on which the mails ere tran
sported. ij , ~
The expenditures of the department tor the
fiscal year ending on the SOth 1857, as
adjusted by the Auditor, amounted to $11,607,670.
To defray these expenditures there was to! the credit
of the department on the Ist July, 1856, the sum
of $7BO 599; the gross revenue of the year, includ
ing the annual allowances for the transportation of free
mail matter, produced $8,053,951 ; and the.j remainder
was supplied by the appropriation from the treasury of
$2,250,000, granted by the act of Congres) approved
August 18, 1856, and by the appropriation $f $666,883
made by the act of March 3, 1857, leaving to be
carried to the credit of the department in the;accoants of
the current year. I commend to your consideration the
report of the department in relation to the establishment
of the overland mail ronte from the Mississippi river to
San Francisco, California. The route was selected with
my full concurrence, astbe one, in my judgment, best
calculated to attain the important objects contemplated
by Congress. .
The late disastrous monetary revulsion maj- have one
good effect should it cause both the government and the
people to return to the practice of a wise and judicious
economy both in public and private expenditures.
An overflowing treasury has led to habits of prodigal-
Ity and extravagance in our legislation. It has induced
Congress to make large appropriations to ipbjecte for
which they never would have provided had It been ne
cessary to raise the amount of revenue required to meet
them by increased taxation or by loans. We are now
compelled to pause in our career, and to scrutinize our
expenditures with the utmost vigilance; and In perform
ing thin dnty, I pledge my co-operation tojthe extent
of my constitutional competency. ’j
It onght to be observed at the same time that true pub
lic economy does not consist in wltholding ithe me‘ ns
necessary to accomplish important national objects in
trusted to us by the constitution, and especially each as
may be necessary for the common defence. In the pres
ent crisis of the country it is our duty to confine our
appropriations to objects of this character, unless in cases
where justice to individuals may demand-a different
course. In all cases cure ought to be taken that the
money granted by Congress shall be faithfully and
economically applied. I
Under the Federal Constitution, “every Ijill which
shall have passed the House of Representatives and the
Senate shall, before it becomesa law,” be approved and
signed by tl)« President; and, if net approved;! “he shall
return it with his objections to that house iti which it
originated." In order to perforin this high ahd respon
sible duty, sufficient time must be allowed th^ President
to read and examine every bill presented for ap
proval. Unless this be afforded, the Constitution be
comes a dead letter in this particular ; aud eyen worse,
it becomes a means of Our constituents,seeing
the President's approval and signature attacked to each
act of Congress, are induced to believe thatjbe has ac
tually performed this duty, when, in truth, bottling is,
in many cases, more unfounded. j
From the practice of Congress, buch an examination
of each bill as the Constitution requires, ha| been ren
dered impossible. The«most important business of each
session is generally crowded Into its last hours, and the
alternative presented to the President is either! to violate
the Constitutional duty which he owes to the people,
and approve bills which, for want of time, lmpo
ssible be should have examined, or, by his refas&l to do
this, subject the country and individuals td great loss
and inconvenience.
Besides, a practice has grown up of late years to legis
late iu appropriation bills, at the last hours of the***
sion, on new and important subjects. Th|e p ractic
constrains the Presideat either to suffer measures tob
come laws which he does nut approve, or toj inenr the
risk of stopping the wheels of the government by vetoing
an appropriation bill. Formerly, such bills were con
fined to specific appropriations for carrying|into effect
existiug laws and the well established policy of the
country, and little time was then required byjjthe Presi
dent for tUeir examination.
For my own part, I have deliberately determined that
I shall approve no bill which I have not examined, and
it will be a case of extreme and mo6t urgent necessity
which shall ever indace me to depart from this rule. I
therefore respectfully, but earnestly, recommend that
the two houses will allow the President at least two
days previous to the adjournment of each session with
in which no bill shall be presented to him foii-jipproval.
Under the existing joint rule ene day is alldfved; bat
this rule has been hitherto so constantly suspended in
practice, that important bills continue to be presented to
him up till the very last moments of the session In a
large majority of cases no great public incdnvenienc e
cau arise irom the want of time to examine their provi.
sions, because the constitution has declared that if a bilj
be presented to the President within the last t&n days of
the session he is not required to return it, either with a D
approval or with a veto, “in which case U shall not b e
a law. ’' It may then lie over, and be taken np had passes
at the next session. Great inconvenience would only b e
experienced in regard to appropriation bills; hut fortu .
nately, under the late excellent law allowlngia salary
instead of a per diem, to members of Congresb, the ex-’
pense and inconvenience of a called session will be
greatly reduced. ft
I cannot conclude without commending to your favor
able consideration the interests of the people o'f this Dis
trict. Without a representative on the floor of Congress,
they have for this very reason peculiar claims 1 upon our
just regard. To this I know, from my long acquaintance
with them, they are eminently entitled, ;|

The practice of Dr. Ilu-rter has I’-ng and still is,
literally uut>oundrd, but at the earnest solicitation of nu
merous pencils, he has been induced to extend the «pher«-
uf bis professional nsefnlm-as to the community at large,
through the medium of his ••Medical Manual and Hand
Book for the Afflicted."
It is a volume that has received the unqualified recom
mendation o' tho first physicians in the laud, while many
clergymen, fathers, mothers, pbllantropists and humanita
rians, have most freely extended its circulation in all quar
ters where its powerful teachings would be likely to be
instrumental iu the moral purification and physical heal
ing of multitudes otour people, among the young, volatile
and indiscreet, otherwise the pride and flower of the nation
The author argues particularly, most strongly against
every species of self defilement, ami warns parents and
guardians, in searching terms, to guard the young of both
sexes from the terrible consequences concomitaut of then
ignorance of physiological laws and sexual impurities and
exhibited by precocious development
or arising from the vicious and corrupting examples of
their school mates or otherw.se. To those who have been
already ensnared to the ‘‘paths that take hold on
hell," a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may
secure a return of sound health, and a regeneration of the
soul from its terrible pollution.
It is well known that thousands of victims are annually
sacrificed at the shrine of quackery—especially those suf
fering from Venereal or Syphilitic diseases—Strictures,
Seminal Weakness, Nervous Debility, and the numerous
maladies which spring directly or less remotely from the
indulgence of carnal passions and secret violations of Na
ture.
In view of these facts, and when it is also considered
that about 100,000 persons die annually in the United
States of Consumption—a large majority being the victims
of the voluptuous indiscretions of their progenitors
agreeably to the Scriptural enunciation, that the sins of
the parents are visited upon the children, even to the third
and fourth generation.—Tbo Author, imbued with senti
meuts of enlarged philanthropy, will scarcely be censured
for any effort to restrain the vices of the age, by the hum
ble instrumentality of his Medical Manual.

TONICS WON’T do:—They newer did
more than give temporary relief and never will. It is
because they don’t touch the cause of the disease. The
cause of all ague and billions diseases is the atmospheric
poison called Miasma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by
*lts Natural Antidote, and all disease caused by it disap
pears at once. Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure is this Anti
dote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless
medicine.' The certificate of the celebrated chemist, J. K.
Chilton, of New York, to this effect, Is attached to every
bottle: therefore if it does no good It can do no harm.
This Is more can be said of Quinine, Arsenic, orany
tonic in existence, as their use is ruinous to the constitu
tion and brings on Dumb Ague, which never allows a per
son to feel perfectly well for a single moment. In illustra
tion of these truths 1 annex somo extracts from a loiter
inst received from a Physician:
Gsobostown, Ohio, March 18. 1856.
JAS. A. RHODES, EBq.—Dear Sir: Yours of 2a Inst. Is
at hand. The Cure arrived late last year and the difficulty
in getting any one to try it was greatly increased from tho
the fact that a remedy had been introduced which was
growing in fovor with the public, as be&g better than using
Quinine, —not knowing I presume that the remedy they
used to escape taking Quinine, contained the Drag Itself!
This remedy, (known as “Bmith’s Tonic,”) wonld Invari
bly break an Ague, bat it did not cure it, as it would often
return with renewed vigor. This one circumstance I deem
ed in your favor, if I conld institute a test comparison be
tween it and your cure. The following is the result:
Three persons took your “Cure,” all of which were cases
of“QuotidlanlntenniUent Fever,” of mnay weeks standing
They had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occasionally
missing a chill, bnt it was, (as in all snch cases,) slowly
wearing them out, and laying the foundation for other and
severer maladies. I did succeed In effecting a radical cum
of all three of these cases with your remedy, and they have
not had a chill since. In all three of these cases the
“Smith’s Tonic” had been used, and would, as before sta
ted, break the chill, bnt after a period or two had elapsed
wonld return.
I think there will be no difficulty now in giving to your
“Gore” the advantage ground of any other remedy now in
use here, Ac. WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D.
Rhode’s Ferer and Ague Cure, or Antidote to Malaria,
the only harmless remedy in existence, is equally certain
as a preventive, as a u k Cnre.” Take it when you fed the
chills coming, and you will never have a single one.

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY*
CONSUMPTION
DISEASES OF THE LUNGS AND THROAT
CURABLE BY INHALATION,
Which conveys the remedies to the cavities in the
lungs through the alrcsßssSgee, and coming in direct
contact .with the disease, neutralises the tubercular
matter, allays the cough, causes- a free and easy expec
toration, heals the 1 tings, purifies the blood, imparts re
newed vitality to the nervous system, giving that tens and
energy so indispensable for the restoration ot health.' To
be able to state confidently that Oonimnption is curable by
Inhalation, is to me a source of 'unalloyed pleasure. It fa
as muph under the' oontral of medical treatment- as ’any
other formidable disease; ninety out of every, hundred
cues can be euxed In the first stages, and fifty per. cent, in
the second; but in the third stage It is impassible to Mrs
more than five per cent, for the Tnngs are so cut up by ths
dlsoess-as to hid d«e«Tv«a tn .mi Even, howsTtr,
in the last stage*, inhalation affords extraordinary relief
to the suffering attending this fearfal scourge which annu
ally destroys ninety-five thousand persons In the United
States alone; and a correct shows that of the
present population of the earth, eighty millions are des
-1 tined to fill the Consumptive’s grave.
Truly the quiver of death has no arrow so fetal as Con
sumption. In all ages it has been the greet enemy of llie,
for it spares neither age nor sex, bat sweeps off alike the
breve, the beeutifbl, the graceful, and the gifted. By the
help ot that Supreme Being, from whom cometh every good
end perfect gift, I am enabled to offer to the afflicted a per
manent and speedy cure In Consumption. The first cause
of tubercles is from impure blood, and the Immediate effect,
produced by their deposition In the langs, is to prevent the
free admission ofair into the air cells, which causes a weak
ened vitality through the entire system. Then surely it Is
more rational to expect greater good from medicines enter
ing the cavities of the lungs than from those administered
through theUtomach; the patient will always find the
lungs free ana the breathing easy after Inhaling remedies.
True inhalation Is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts
constitutionally, and with more power and certainty than
remedies administered by the stomach. To prove the pow
erful and direct influence of this mode of administration,
chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy sensibility in a
few minutes, paralysing the entire nervous system, so that
a limb may bo amputated without the slightest pain; in
haling the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a few
hours.
The inhalation of ammonia will rouse the system when
or apparently dead. The odor of many of the
medicines is perceptible in the skin a few minutes after
being inhaled and may be immediately detected In the
blood. A convincing proof of the constitutional effects of
luhnlatiou, is the fact that sickness Is always produced by
breathing foul air. la not this positive evidence that proper
remedies carefully prepared and Judiciously administered
ihroairh the lungs, should produce the most happy results?
During eighteen years’ practice, many thousands, suffering
from diseases of the luuga and throat, have been under
my care, and I have effected many remarkable cunts, even
afier the sufferers bad been pronounced in tbe last stages,
which fully satisfies me that consumption in uo longer a
fatal disease My treatment of consumption is original,
and founded on l«>ng experience and a thorough investiga
tion. M* jierfect acquaintance with tbe nature of tubor
i-L's, Ac , enables me to distinguish, readily, the various
forms of disease that simulate consumption, and apply the
proper remedies, rarely beiug mistaken even iu a single
case, This familiarity in counectiou with certain patho
logical aud microscopic discoveries, enables me to relieve
the lungs from tho effects of contracted chet-ts; to enlarge
the chent. parity the blood, impart to it renewed vitality,
giving euorgy and tone to the entire system.

stinate the ra*e. recovery is certain, aud in a shorter time
than a permanent cure can be effected by any other treat
ment, even after the disease baa baffled the skill of eminent
physicians and resisted all their means of care. Thu med
icines are pleasant without odor, causing no sickness’and
free from mercury or balsam. During twenty years of
practice, I have rescued from the jaws of Death many
thousands, who. in tbe last stages of the above mentioned
diseases had been given up to die by their physicians,
which warrants me Id promlsimg to the afflicted, who may
place themselves under my care, a perfect aud most speedy
cure. Secret diseases are the greatest enemies to bealh, as
>ihey are the first cause of Consumption, Scrofula an
many other diseases, and-should be a terror to the human
family. As a permanent cure is scarcely ever effected, a
majority of the cases falling into tbe hands of incompetent
persons, who not only fail to cure the diseases but ruin
tbe coustitutinn, filling tbe system with tnerenry, which,
with the disease, hoatons tho sufferer into a rapid Con
sumption.
But Bbould the diseases and the treatment not cause death
speedily and the victim marries, the disease Is entailed
upon the children, who are b<>m with feeble constitutions,
and the current of life corrupted by a betrays
itself in Scrofula, Tetter, Ulcers, Eruptions and other affec
tions of the Skin, Eyes, Throat and Lungs, entailing npon
them a brief existence of suffering, and consigning them to
an early grave.
SELF ABUSE is another formidable enemy to health, for
nothing else in the dread catalogue of human dlaoases
causes so destructive a drain upon the system,' drawing its
thousands of victims through a few years of suffering
down to an untimely grave. It destroys the Nervous sys
tem, rapidly wastes away the energies of life, causes mental
derangement, prevents the proper development of the sys
tem. disqualifies for marriage, society* business, and all
earthly happioess, and leaves the sufferer wrecked In body
and mind, predisposed to consumption and a train of evils
more to be dreaded than death itself. With the fullest
confidence I assure the unfortunate victims of Self Abuse
that a permanent and speedy cure can be effected, and with
the abandonment of ruinous practices my patients chn be
restored to robust, vigorous health.
Tbe afflicted are cautioned against the' use of Patent
Medicines, for there are so many ingenious suares In the
columns of the pnbllc prints to catch and rob tbe nnwary
sufferers that millions have their constitutions ruined by
the rile compounds of quack doctors, or tbe equally poi
sonous nostrums vended as “Patent Medicines." I have
carefully analyzed many of the so-called Patent Medicines
and find that nearly all of them contain Corrosive Subli
mate, which Is one of the strongest preparations of mercury
and a deadly poison, which instead of curing the disease
disables the system for life. *
Three-fourths of the patent nostrums now iu use are put
up by unprincipled and ignorant persons, who do not un
derstand even the alphabet of the matcriamedica, and are
equally as destitute of any knowledge of the human sys

THE GREATEBT MEDICAL DISCOV
ERY OF TUB AGE.—Dr. Kinnedt, of Roxbury, has
discovered, in one of our common pasture weeds, a remedy
that cores
EVERY KIND OF HUMOR,
from the worst Scrofula down to a common pimple.
He has tried it in over 1100 cases, and never foiled except
In two cases, (both thunder humor.) He has now In his
possession over two hundred certificates of its virtue, all
within twenty miles of Boston.
Two bottles are warranted to cure a nurslng iore mouth.
One to three bottles will cure the worst kind of Pimples
on the face.
Two to three bottles will clear the system of Biles.
Two bottles are warranted to oure the worst canker in
the mouth or stomach.
Three to five bottles are warranted to cure the worst case
of Erysipelas.
One or two bottles are warranted to cure all humor In
the Eyes.
Two bottles are warranted to cure running of the ears
and blotches amoDg the hair.
Four to six bottles are warranted to cure corrupt.end
running ulcers.
Oue botije will cure scaly eruption of the skin.
Two Gwlhree bottles are warranted to cure the worst
cases of ringworm.
Two to three bottles are warranted to cure the most des
perate case of rheumatism.
Three to four bottles are warranted to cure the salt
rheum.
Five to eight bottles will cure the worst case of scrofula.
A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and
Krfect cure is warranted when the above quantity la
ID.
Reader, I peddled over a thousand bottles of this in the
vicinity of Boston. I know the effect of It in every case.—
So sure as water will extinguish fire, so sure will this cure
humor. I never sold a bottle of It, but that sold another;
after a trial it always speakß for Itself. There are two
things about this herb that appear surprising; first, that
It grows In our pastures, in some places quite plentiful,
and yet its value has never been known until I discovered
it in 1848— second, that it should cure all kinds of humor.
In order to give some idea of the sudden rise, and great
popularity of the discovery, I will state that in April, 1853,
I peddled it and sold about six bottles per day—in April,
1854, I sold over one thousand bottles per day of It.
Some of the wholesale Druggists who have been In the
business twenty and thirty years, say that nothing In the
annals of patent medicines was ever like It. There Isa
universal praise of it from all quarters.
Id my own practice I always kept it strictly for humors
—bat since Its introduction as a general fomlly medicine,
great and wonderful virtues have been found In it that I
never suspected.
Several cases of epileptic fits—a disease which waß always
considered incurable, have been cured by a few bottles.—
0, what a mercy if it prove effectual iu all cases of that
awful malady—there are but few who have seen more of It
than I have
I know of several cases of Dropsy, all of them aged Deo
pie, cured by It. For the various diseases of the Liver, flick
Headache, Dyspepsia, Asthma, Fever and Ague, pain In
the side. Diseases of the Spine, and particularly in diseases
of the Kidneys, & the discovery has done more good than
any medicine over known.
No change of diet ever necessary—eat tho best you get
and • nougb of it.

—Children over ten years dessert spoonful. Children from
five to eight years tea opoonfnl. As do directions can be
