It is be cause they don't touch the cause of the dis ease. The cause of all ague and billious dis eases is the atmospherio poison called Mias ma or Malaria. Neutralize this poison by its NATURAL ANTIDOTE. and all diseases caused by it disappears at once. Rhodes' Fever and Ague Cure is this Antidote to Malaria, and moreover it is a perfectly harmless medicine. The certificate of the celebrated chemist, J. R. Chilton, of New York, to this effect, is attached (o every bottle; therefore if it does no good it car. do no harm. This is more than ean be said of Quinine, Arsenic, or any tonic in existence, as their use is ruinous to the constitution and brings on DUMB AGUE, which never allows a per son to feel perfectly well for a single moment. In illustration of these truths I annex some extracts from a letter just received from a Phvsician: Georgetown, Ohio, March 17, '56. Js. A. RHODES, Esq.—Dear Sir: Yours of 2d insl. is at huiid. The Cure arrived lale last year and the difficulty in gelling any one to try it was greatly increased from lite fact thai a remedy had been introduced which was growing in favor with the public, as be ing belter than using Quinine, —not knowing I presume that the remedy they needed to escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG ITSELF! This remedy, (known as "Smith's Tonic,") would invariably BREAK an ague, but it did not CURE it, and it would often return with renewed vigor. The one circumstance I deemed in your favor, if I could institute a test comparison between it and your CURE. The lollowing is the result: Three persons took your "Cure," all of which were coses of "Quotidian Intermit tent Fever," of marry weeks standing. They had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa sionally missing n chill, but it was, (as in all such cases,) slowly wearing them out, ami laying the foundation of other and severer maladies. I did succeed in effecting a radi cal cure of all three of these cases with your remedy, and they have not hail a chill since. In nlljhree of these cases the "Smith's Ton ic" had been used, and would, as before sta ted, break the chill, bnt after a period or two hacMllapsed it would return. I think there will be no difficulty now in giving to your "Cure" the vantage ground of any other remedy now in use here, &c. &c. WILLIAM BUCKNER, M. D. RHODES' FEVER and AGUE CURE, or Antidote to Malaria , the only harmless reme dy in existence, is equally certain as a PRE VENTIVE, as a "CURE." Take it when you feel the chill coming on, and you will never have a single one. JAMES A. RHODES, Proprietor. Providence, R. I. For sale by Druggists generally. Jane 18, 1856, Business Directory.

PRICE TWENTY-FIVE CENTS. THK Author of the above volume is a gradu ate of one or thr. first medical school* in the United Slates, and having devoted a quarter of a century to the atudy and treatment of Syphilis and kindred disorders as a speciality, he has become possessed of most invaluable informa tion in regard to the 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 Rurnpe and Amer ica is thorouehly demonstrated in his own highly successful practice in the treatment of se.rrt diseases in msoy thousands of cares in the City of Philadelphia alone. The iracticeof Dr. Hunter has long boen, and Mtill IS literally unbounded, but at the ear neat solicitation of numerous poison*, he has been induced to extend the spbeie of his pro fessional usefulness to the community at large, through the medium of his "Mcdi al 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 aecret vice, or as a guide for the alleviation of one of tho most awful and de structive scourges ever visited upon mnnkind for the sins of sensuality and impurity of every kl d. It is a volume that has received the unquali fied recommeudalion of tho first physician* in the land, while many clergymen, fathers, moth ers, | hilanthropisls and humnnitariars, have most freely extended its circulation in all quar ters where its powerful teachings woulJ be like ly to be instrumental in the moral purification and phvM.'al healing of multitude i of our peo ple, among tho young, volatile and indiscreet, otherwise Ihe pride and ll.wur of the nation. The outhoi argues parliculnrly, most strongly against every species of self-df filemcn', and warns parents and guaidians, in res,thing terms, to guard the young of both SCXCB from the terrible consequences concomitant of their ignorance of phyiologicol laws and seiusl imd purities and irregularities, whether eihiliite oy precocious development or arising fiom the viscious and corrupting examples of their school, mates or otheiwise. To those who have bee i already ensnared to the "paths that take hold on hell,'' a clear and explicit way is shown by which they may secure a lelum 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 shrino of Quack ery—especially those sulTeiing from Veneical or Syphilitic diseases—Strictures, Seminal Weak ness, Nervous Debility, and tho numeroes mal adies which spring directly or less remotely from the indulgenca of carnal passions and se cret violjtions of Nature, In view of these facts, and w hen it is also considered that about 100,000 persons die annu ally in the United Stales of Conoumption—a targe majority being the victims of the voluput ous indiscretion of their piogenilors, agreeably to the Scriptural enunciation, that tho sins of the parents arc visited upon the children, even to tho third and fourth geneiation.

MEDICAL HOUSE— Established 20 years ago by Dr. XINKKLIN, corner of TTiird and Union street*, between Spruce and Pine, Philadelphia, Pa. INVALIDS Are apprised that Dr. KINKELIN confine* hi* practice to a particular branch of medi cine, which engages hi* individual attention. He cautions the unfortunate against the a buse of mercury; thousand* are annually mercnriulized out of life. Recent affection* are promptly extinguished. TWENTY YEARS'EXPERIENCE In the treatment of a class of diseases hith erto neglected and imperfectly understood, has enabled Dr. KINKELIN, Author of a work on Self Preservation, to prove hat nine tenths of the causes of nervous debility, lo cal and constitutional weakness, mental and physical suffering, are traceable to cenaio habits, forming the most secret yet deadly and fatal springs of domestic misery and premature mortality. TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE. There is an evil habit sometimes indulged in by boys, in solitude, and which, if not re formed in due time, not only begets serious obstacles to matrimonial happiness,but gives rise to a series of protracted, insidious and devastating afflictions. Few ol those' who give way to this pernicious practice are a ware of the consequencea, until they find the nervous system shattered, feel atraoge and unaccountable feelings, and vague fears in the mind. The unfortunate thus affected becomes fee ble, is unable to labor with accustomed vig. or, or to ripply his mind to study ; his step is lanly ami wi-ak, lie is dull, irresolute, and engage* in his sport with less energy man u-ual. II he emanci| ate hiruiu-lf before the prac tice has done its worst JBid en'er matrimony, his marriage is unfruiilul, ami his sense tells him ibat this is caused hy his early lollies.— These are considerations which should #w n . ken the attention of those similarly situated. MARRIAGE Requires the fulfillment of several conditions in order that it may bo really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil which covers ihe origin of domestic wretchedness be raised, mid its iroe source ii every in stance disclosed—in how many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disupppinlments! Apply then while it is yet time, in order to have your unstrung and relaxed organization rebraceJ, revivified and strengthened. REMEMBER, Ho who places himself under Dr. Kinkelin's treatment may religiously confide in his hon or as a gentenian, and rely upon the assur ance, that the secrets of Dr. K' patients will never be disclosed. Young man—let no false modesty deter you from making your ease known to sue who, from education mid respectability, ran befriend you. Too many think they will conceal the se cret in their own hearts, and cure themselves, Alas ! how often is this a lat a I delusion, and how many n promising young man, who might have been an ornament to society, has faded from the earth. Sirictures of the urethra are rapidly re moved by lite anplicmion of a new thera peutical agent, used only by Dr. K. Weak ness and Constitutional Debility promptly cureit, and ftm vigor restored.

The only Safe which, in every instance, preserved the entire contents at the lute Extensive Fires. AT THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAN BUILDJNGS, April 10th, and in the great '/be in Market Street, May Ist, 1856, the gen uine HERRING SAKE preserved the Jewelry of | George W. Simms & Bro; Bnoks, Papers he al Fisher & Bro. and Edward Si-man* k Co., after remaining exposed in the burning ruins for needy Forty Hours, end proving conclu sively what we have always claimed for them, their great supeiictity over all securi ties known. In these fires, the HERRING'S SAFE, standing side by side with those advertised as "warranted to stand 10 per cent, more fire than Herring's," came forth the acknowledg ed victor, not only preserving their contents in excellent order, but being themselves in a condition to go through another ordeal, while the boasted "Salemandera" of other makers ware badly used up in every instance, and in somecasestheir entire contents completely desl royed. To the public we would simply say, that, during the fourteen years of the Herring's Sale has been before them, more than two hundred have passed through accidental fires without the occurence of u single lota. We would, therefore, caution purchasers against the misrepresentation of interfiled parties. The Herring's Patent is the ouly Fito-proof Safe made in this city which ia protected by a Patent Right, and we will guarantee it to resist more than double the amount of heat of any other Sale now known.
