I feel it a duty incumbent upon myself to
declare publicly the greet blessing Dr. Mar
cbisi'a Uterine Catholicon has proved to me.
For two years my health was miserable; I
was almost unable to walk. Physicians pro
nounced my case falling of the womb, exten
sive ulcerations, commencing with flour al
bus. The pains, irritation, prostration, &c.,
rendered life a burden. In this miserable
condition. Dr. F. P. Newland recommended
Dr. Marchisi's Uterine Catholicon. After la
king four bottles I found myself in perfect
health. Gratitude for my restoration makes
me ardently desire that all my sex, a like
unfortunate, may find sure relief from this in
estimable medicine.
ELIZABETH A. NEWLAND,
No. 19 West St., Utica, N. Y.
The above statement I know to be true,
F. P. NEWLAND, M. D.,
Utica, New York.
1 would be "glad to have • further supply,
as the medicine is becoming very popular,
and 1 think will continue, as it has given re
lief in every instance where properly taken.
THOMAS NEWMAN, M. D ,
Mt. Vernon, lnd.
Prevail on medical men to adopt it in their
practice ; and 1 have no fears ol the result,
from what knowledge 1 have obtained per
sonally of its curative powers. I wish the
medicine kept here.
T. C. HAWKINS, M D.,
Waynesburg, l'a.
f I must say, from my own experience and
personal observations in my practice, it has
proved to be the best and safest rsmedy lor
the difficulties for which it is recommended,
viz : those of female weakness, such as Pro
lapsus Uteri, Flour Albus, and all irregular
and painful menstruation, and diseases of ir
ritation of the female organs.
D. Y. FOOTE, M. D.,
Syracuse, N. Y.
The claims of this medicine to the confi
dence of the public are strengthened by the
fact of its having received the approbation
and patronage of many prominent members
of the Medical Faculty in the United States,
aome of whom have voluntarily given letters
ol commendation, (see pamphlet,) sustaining
all that is claimed lor it as a curative agent.
Pamphlets containing much usetul infor
mation touching the nature and symptoms of
the above diseases, together with testimoni
als from ladies of the highest respectability,

ty, to all which the attention of ladies and
practitioners is respectfully invited, can be

TO THE FASIIONABLE AND, iff
fIMIE undersigned, having just received the
latest Paris and New York Fashions,
would again beg leaveto inform his numer
ous friends and all the world about Blooms
burg, that he is now better prepared than ev
er to accommodate any one w th the neatest,
easiest and best fitting suits of Clothes that
have been turned out lately; and not only
thai, but he will also do them up in the best
order, upon the lowest terms.
His shop is at the old stand, (too well
known to need further notice) where he may
at all times be found, sealed upon the bench
of repentance, steadily drawing out the thread
of affliction, hopeing it may in the end prove
advantageous to him and his customers. He
would also advise his friends to bear in mind
that poor, afflicted tailors must live, or they
can't be expected to work. Therefore, Wheat.
Rye, Corn, Oats, Potatoes, and with all now
and then a little CASH will come mighty
handy from those who are back-standing on
h:e book.
Remember, gentlemen, that in all cases
"the laborer is worthy of his hire."

GOOD NEWS FOR ALL!!
THE never failing MRS. VANHORN is
the very best; she is sure to succeed
when all others have failed. All who are in
trouble, all who have been unfortunate, de
ceived and trifled with ; all whose fond hopes
have been crushed and blasted by false prom
ises, all who have had bad luck, fly to her
for advice and satisfaction, frpm whatever
cause, fly to her. for relief and comfort. In
love affairs she was never known to fail.—
She h&B the secret of winning the affections
of the opposite sex. It is this fact which
induces illiterate pretenders to lly to imitate
her. She shows you the likeness of your
future wife, husband, or absent friend. It is
well known to the public at large that she
is the first, and only person in this country
who can show their likeness in reality—
which can be testified and proved by thou
sands, both married and single, who daily
and eagerly visit her. Come one, come all,

TERRIBLE DISCLOSURES

- iol °RV; Functions and

every kind, with nev
er Tailing Remedies for the speedy cure of all
diseases of a private and delicate character,
incident to the violation of the Laws of Na
ture and of Natures God.
PRICE TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.
Thr Author of the above volume is a gradu
ate of one or Ihe first medical schools in the
United States, and having devoted a quarter of
a century to the study and treatment of Syphilis
and kindred disorders as a speciality, he has
become possessed of most invaluable informa
tion in regard to thr same, and is able to com
pass into vade mecum compass the very quint
essence of medical science on this important
subject; as the result of the experience of the
most eminent physician in Europe and Amer
ica is thoroughly demonstrated in his own
highly successful practice in the treatment of
secret diseases in many thousands of cares in
the City of Philadelphia alone.
The (ractice of Dr. Hunter has long boen,
and still is literally unbounded, but at the ear
nest solicitation of numerous persons, he has
been induced to extend the sphere of his pro
fessional usefulness to the community at large,
through the medium of his "Medial Manual
Hand-Book for the Afflic'ed.''
It is a volume that should be in the hand of
every family in the land, whether used as a
preventive of secret vice, or as a guide for the
alleviation of one of Ihe most awful and de
structive scourgos ever visited upon mankind
for the sins of sensuality and impurity of every
kl d.
It is a volume tbat haß received the unquali
fied recommeudation of the flrst physicians in
the land, while many clergymen, fathers, moth
ers, | hllanlhropists and humanitarians, have
most freely extended its circulation in all quar
tora where its powerful teachings would be liko
ly to be instrumental in the moral purification
and physical healing of multitude, of our peo
ple, among the young, volatile and indiscreet,
otherwise the pride and flower of the nation.
The aulhoi argues particularly, moat strongly
against every species of self-defilement, and
warns parents and guardians, in searching
terms, to guard the young of both sexes from
the terrible consequences concomitant of their
ignorance of phyiological laws and sexual im
purities and irregularities, whether exhibited
i>y precocious development or arising fiom the
viscious and corrupting examples of their school
mates or otheiwise. To those who have lieea
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 Quack
cry —especially those suffoiiag fiom Veneieal or
Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak
ness, Nervous Debility, and the numerous mal
adies which spring directly or less remotely
frum the indulgence of carnal passions and se
cret violations of Nature.
In view of theso facts, and when it is also
considered that about 100,000 persons die annu
ally in the United Stales of Conoumption—a
large majority being the victims of the voluput
ous indiscretion of their progenitors, agreeably
to the Scriptural enunciation, that the sins of
the parents aro visited upon the children, oven to
the third and fourth geneiation. The Author
imbued with sentiments of enlarged phtlhnthro
py, will scarcely be censured for any efTort to
restrain the vices of tho age, by the humble in.
atrumentalitv of his Medical Manual.
