it. It is thrown off front the blood and other juices of
the body,and disposes by this means of nearly all the lin
purities within us. The language of the Scripture Is, .
"In the blood is the Life.' If it ever becomes in, ore.
it may be traced directly to the stoppage of Insensible
Perspiration. Thus we see all that is necessary when
the,blood is stagnant or infected; is to .open the gore s , and" It relieves, itself from all . impurity instantly. .Its
own heat andvitality are sufficient, without one parti
cle of medicine, except to open the pores upon the sUr- -
face Thus we see the folly of taking en many intents!
medies. All practitioners, however, direct their ef
irts to restore the insensible perspiration. The.
I '
hompsoman, for instance, steams ; the Hydropathist
shrouds us in wet blankets; the Iloincepathjst deals out .
infinetesmals; the Ailopathist bleeds and doses us with
mercury •, and the blustering Quack gorges us with
Pills! pills.!! pills!!!
To give some idea of the amount of the Insensible
: Perspiration, we wilt stale that the learned.llr. Lew
eithockhscertained that five-eighthslif all we reeeive
into the stontace passed off by this means. In other
words,, if we eat and drinkieight pounds per day, we
evaruats live pounds of it by Insensible Perspiration.
This is none other than the used up particles of the
blood, and other juices, givirig place to the new and
fresh ones. To check this, therefore, is to retain , in the
°system five eights of all,thefti,rident matter,that ha
wse dernandteshould lea...v,ffillb body.
It is by stopping the pores that overwhelm, mankind
%shit coughs, colds and consult - 44one. Nine-tenths of
the world die from diseaseinduced by a stoppageOf the
Insensible Perspiration..
Let toe ask, now, every candid mind, what course
seems the most reasonable to pursue to unstop the
pores after they are closed 1 Would you giveyhysic
to unstop the porest Or would you apply something
that would do this upon the surface, where the ting
eing actually is 1 And yet I know of no physician who
makes any external application to effect it. Under
these circumstances -I present to physicians, and all
others, ~
M'AVLISTER'S ALL.HEALINfi OINTMENT,
OR, THE WORLDS' 'SALVE. •
It has thnpower to restore - perspiration on the feet,
on the head, around old sores, upon the chest, in Short,
upon every part of the 44, whether diseased slightly
or sere' thy. .
It has power to cause ail external sqtrEs.'scroftrious
humors, skin diseases, poisonous wounds, to discharge
their putrid mutters, and then heals them. -
It is a remedy that forbids the necessity,of so many,
and deleterious drugs taketi into the stomach.
It preserves and defends the surface from all derange
ment of its functions. The surface is rhc outlet of live
'eighths of the bile and ustd up matter within. It is pierc
edwith niiilions of operitties to relieve the intestines.
Stop up those pores and' Veal!! knocks at your door.
-It is rightly 'termed All *healing; fat there is scarcely
a disease.,exterhal'or internal, that it will not, benefit.
I have used it for the last I I years for all dis'eases .of
the chest, consiimption, liver, involving the utmost
danger and respons:liilit y, and I declare la fore Heaven
and man, that not in one ciugle case has it failed to ben

I have had physicians, learned in the profession, I
have had mini.ters of the Gospel, Judges of the, bench,

'McAllister, your Ointment is COML.

'lt can hardly be credited that a salve can have any

OPERATION OF PLASTER.
There seems to be a great diverisity of opinion

.s•••
I made a visit to Virginia last Winter.prepara.
tory to removing there, and while there I made
particular inquiries . in relation to the cxteaive
marl formation which underlays neatly the whole
eastern portion of the , state, treloWe the flls of the'
rivers, and its effects upon the soil.• I fund it tci
-be extensively am),pro6tably used, and producing
important and permanent changes in the soil; so
,niuch so, that clover cannot be made to grow at
1 all until Marl, or its equivalent, lime, isapplied.—
I The marl contains from 30 to 80 per eent.of lime,
which is the principal If net the only fertilizer
contained in its composition. I inquired how
Iplaster succeeded on clover, and the almost inva
riable reply was, it, does no good whatever until
I the land' is marled or limed. I inquired the rea- •
son of this, and was referred to Mr. Rutfin's work
on Calcareous Manures. I there found what aii. '
1
.peared to me to be a very satisfactory reason, and
I will give you a brief abstract. He says that the'
most of the soils of eastern Virginia were fotind;
'upon analysis, to contain but a slight trace e(.
calcareous matter, and with the eiception of the
land along the .margins of the fliers, which . he
terms neutral soils. he calls them all acid soils;
and the presence 'of sorrel on the land he consid.
ers. an indication •of acid soils. Sorrel grows
ablindantlyon all land - which he terms acid.—.
Oxalic acid is the acid of sorrel. Now, sowing
on plaster in theusual quantity, that being s sul
phate of lime, the, oxal is acid has a strong chemi-
cal affinity for the lime; the lime leaves its corn
biqation With the sulphur; and combines vi ith tho
oxalic - acid; and forms an oxalate of lime, and sets
the sulphur-free to copititie with iron or . any oth
er ingredient jt can find. 'Apply a.good dressing
of mad or lime. 'and combines With.;tho' acid
and neutralizes or k
,droys it, and as a' relit' of
This, sorrel is: rctldner found. , -Plaster applied
then is left free to act, and Prodbees - the mostsat-
Isfactory•Msnlts, frequently doubling the crop.' -
Lon g Island and New Jersey have soils some
, what similar to Virginia. I can, speak more con
fidentty of Long Island, a s that is roy . place of res
idence; its soil' prodeces sorrel plentifully. Ilima
has been used hut little, and in many cases with
no perceptible-effect, 'and plaster, with a•fesy. iso
lated exceptions,lhas totally failed. I hopl 'that
some of-your Long Island and other reinlers who
rare sitnilarly situated, will Make.experintent, and
I see if like causes will produce like effects. l'he ,

While on a regent visit to putchess Coun t y, a
friend itoreine4ine tt.at the Prevailing opinion in.
that countrwas that plaster applied to one field,
injure!" an unplaStered field 'adjOiltingTas. much as
it benefitted the one . it was applied to,• and that
some went so far as .to say that if a piece.of wood
land wasleft amidst.eleared land,, and that cleared
land plastered. the timber I :commenced decaying
and dying. Heitold, me or/Am:instance that went
strongly to prove the•truth of lhat opinion. • An
old farmer had. 1 a very fine meadow, in a creek
lle-xiOnmencedidasteting his upland ly-I
ing around, and
i ridjoining' i it., Ijjs meadOw, which
had never before fai ed •to)prodUce luxurious crops
,of grasQ, began to fail, and coCitinued to do so un
'til itAea;•4 'hardly wolli•inowine, He then core
.: menced plastering it and its ancient fertility was
l at once restored.' A orb what con be .the cause of
that ! . Perhaps our chemiAs iire,the most proper
persons to judge; Gi4 I. can own opin
ions as they do not cost Much. I . The idea at once
occurred to me'that it might be , caused by the ab-:'
sorption. of ammonia' from the surrouelling ab
ino,iptiere. by the plaster, (as ammonia . and sul
phonic acid have a strong atllinity for each. other.)
that the unpiastered land was deprived of its due
share from that Coulee, as plants are said ,to derive
• a I:ge share of their ammonia from the aimos
pt re. Perhaps', tvinie of youi Ade correspondents
can enlighten as - to the cause of.it;
