BjgfKM SALAMANDER EVANS & WATSON, Great Fire, Chestnut & Fifth Streets, MONDAY MORNING. DECEMBER, Islh, 1854. EVANS & WATSON'S SALAMAN DER SAFES TRIUMPHANT, as they al ways are when put to the test. Philadelphia, Dec. 1 5th, 1854. Messrs. Evans te Watson, No. 26 south Fourth Street, Philadelphia.—Gentlemen:— We take pleasure in recommending your Salnmander Sales to merchants and others in want of a secure means of preserving their books, papers, &0., from fire, as the one we purchased from you about seven months since has preserved our books, pa pers, and cash in as good condition as they ware when put into it, before the great fire uf this morning, which destroyed the entire block of buildings corner of Chestnut and Fifth Streets. The above Safe was in use in our office, on tbe second floor of our build ing, from which place it fell into the cellar, and remained there until the fire was out The safe was then removed, and oppened in the presence ol at least 1000 persons, who witnessed the good condition ol the contents. Will you please have the Safe and locks re paired, as we intend to put it in use again, having perfect confidence in its fire proof qualities. Yours, respectfully, LACEY & PHILLIPS. Evans & Watson take pleasure in referring to the following, among the many hundreds, who have their Sales in use:—U. S. Mint, Philadelphia; Farmers & Mechanics' Bank, Philadelphia; Samuel Allen, Esq. High Sher iff, Philadelphia; John N. Henderson, City Controller; Caleb Cope & Co., No. 183 Mar ket street; Richard Norris &Son, Locomotive builders, Philadelphia; Bancroft & Sellers, Machinists, corner 16th and James streets- Franklin Fire Insurance Co., Philadelphia; 1 Pennsylvania Railroad Co., Philadelphia; Lacey & Phillips, corner of oth and Minor street; Sharpless Bro., No. S2 south Second street ; James, Kent & Santee, No. 147 north Third street.

Piease give us a call at No. 26 South' 4th street Philadelphia. EVANS & WATSON. March 27, 1856. TONICS WON'T DHL rpHEY never did do more than give tempo *- rary relief and they never will. It is be cause they don't touch the cause of the dis ease. The cause of all ague and hillidus dis eases is the atmospheric poison called Mias ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by its NATURAL ANTIDOTE. and all diseases caused by it once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless medicimJr The certificate oL the celebrated chemi.-i, J. R. Chilton of N2w York, to this effctfi, is attached to every Uoltle ; therefore if U does no good it can do no.biam. This is more than can be said of Quinine, Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, as their " ,8 ~?, r . u .7?" ns 10 ,t)e consthtyran and brings on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per son 10 feel perfectly well for a single moment. In illustration of these truths J annex some extracts from a letter just received from a Physician : Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56. JAS. A. RHODES, Esq.— Dear Sir: Yours of 2d inst. is at hand. The Core arrived late last year and the difficulty in getting any one to try it was greatly increased from the fact thai u remedy had been introduced which was growing in favor with the public, as be ing better than using Quinine, —not knowing 1 presume thnt ihe remedy they needed 10 escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG ITSELF! This remedy, (known as "Smith's Tonic,") would invariably BREAK an ngue, but it did not CURE it, and it would ofien return with renewed vigor. The one circumstance I deemed in your favor, if I could institute a tesl comparison between it and your CURE. The following is the result: Three persons look your "Cure," all of which were esses of "Quotidian Intermit tent Fever," of many weeks standing. They had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa sionally missing a chill, but it was, (as in all such cases.; slowly wearing them out, and laying the inundation of other and severer maladies. I did sucreed in effecting a radi cal cure of all three of these cases with your remedy, and they ha've not had a chill since. In all three of these cases Ihe "Smith's Ton ic" had been used, and would, us before sta ted, break lite chili, but after a period or two had elapsed it would return. 1 think there will he no difficulty now in giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of any other remedy now in use herd. &c & c WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D.' RHODES' FEVER and AGUE or Antidote to Malarta, the only harmless reme dv in existence, is equally certain as a PRE VENTIVE, as a "CURE." Take n then you leel the chill coming on, and vou will never have a single one. JAMES A. RHODES, Proprietor. c , . „ Providence, R. I. For sale by Drogguts generally. June 18, 1856.
