The virus of disease often makes its way to the internal organs through tliß pores ol the skin. This penetrating Ointment, inell ing under the hand as it is rubbed in, is ab sorbed through the same channels, and, reaching the seat of inflamatinn, promptly and invariably subdues it, whe her located in the kiduevs the liver, the lungs, or any other important organ. It penetrates the surface to the interior, through the countless lubes that communicate witli llie skin, as summer rain passes into the fevered earth, diffusing its cool and regenerating influence. FKIN DISEASES AND GLANDULAR SWELLINGS. Every species of exterior irritation is quickly reduced by the ami inflammatory action ol this Ointment. Angry Eruptions, such as salt Rheum, Erysipelas, Teller, P.tr.gworm, Scald Head, Nettle, Rash, Scab ies, (or licit) &c., die out, to return no more, under this application. Hospital experi ence in all pans of the World proves iis infallibility in diseases of the skin, ihe mus cles, ihe joiuts and Ihe glands. ULCERS, SORES, AND TUMORS. The effect ol this unrivalled external remedy upon Scrofula, and other virulent ulcers and soies, almost maraculous. It first discharges tbe poison which produces suppuration and proud flesh, aud thus the cures which its healing properties afterwards complete are safe as well as permanent. WOUNS, BRUISES, BURNS, AND SCALDS In cases of ihe fracture of the bones,"in juries caused by steam explosions, Bruises, Burns, Scalds, Rheumatism, Stiffness of Ihe Joints, and contraction of the sinews, it is employed and warmly recommended by ihe faculty. This marvellous remedy has been introduced hy its inventor in persons into all the leading Hospitals ol Europe,and no private household should be without It. UNDEFINABLE TESTIMONY. The Medical Staff of the French and Eng lish Armies in the Crimea officially signed their approval of HOLLOWAY'S Ointment, as the most reliable dressing for sabre cuts, siabs, and gun-shot wounds.

BARNARD FASHIONABLE TAILOR, Shop on the South Side of Main Street, firs square below Market. Scrofula, or King's Evil, is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated, weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades the whole bodv, and may burst out in disease on any part of it. No organ is free from its attacks, nor is there one which it may not destroy. The scrofulous taint is variously caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by the venereal infection. What ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con stitution, descending " from parents to children unto the third and fourth generation indeed, it seems to be the rod of Him who says, " I will Visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their children." Its effects commence by deposition froifi the blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses the energies of life, so that scrofulous constitu tions not only suffer from scrofulous comp plaints, but they have far less power to with stand the attacks of other diseases; conse quently, vast numbers perish by disorders' which, although not scrofulous in their nature, are still rendered fatal by this taint in the 6ystem. Most of the consumption which de cimates the human family has its origin directly in this scrofulous contamination; and many destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain, and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are aggravated by the same cause. One quarter of all our people are scrofulous j their persons are invaded by this lurking in fection, and their health is undermined by it. To cleanse it from the system we must renovate the blood by an alterative medicine, and in vigorate it by healthy food and exercise. Such a medicine we Supply in AYER'S I Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, the most effectual remedy which the medical skill of our times can devise for this every where prevailing and fatal malady. It is com bined from the most active rcmedial9 that have been discovered for the expurgation of this foul disorder from the hlood, and the rescue of the system from its destructive consequences. Hence it Bhould be employed for the cure of not only scrofula, but also those other affec tions which arise from it, such as ERUPTIVB and SKIN DISEASBS, ST. ANTHONY'S Fiai, ROBE, or ERYSIFZLAS, PIMPLES, PUSTULES, BLOTCHES, IILAINS and BOILS, TUMORS, TETTER and SALT RHEUM, SCALD HEAD, RINGWORM, I RHEUMATISM, SYPHILITIC and MERCURIAL DIS EASES, DROPSY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and, indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING PROM VITIA TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief in " impurity of the blood " is founded in truth, for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid, without which sound health is impossible in i contaminated constitutions. Ayer's Cathartic Pills, FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A FAMILY PHYBIO, ; are so composed that disease within the range of I their action can rarely withstand or evade them ! Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse, and invigorate every portion of the human organ ism, correcting its diseased action, and restoring its healthy vitalities. As a consequence of these properties, the invalid who is bowed down with Kain or physical debility is astonished to find hie ealth or energy restored by a remedy at once so simple and inviting. Not only do they cure the every-day complaints of every body, but also many formidable and dangerous diseases. The agent below named is pleased to furnish gratis my American Almanac, containing certificates of their cures and directions for their use in the following complaints: Costive nete, Heartburn, Headache arising from disordered Stomach, Nausea, Indigestion, Pain in and Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, Flatulency, Loss of Appe tite, Jaundice, and other kindred complaints, arising from a low state of the body or obstruction of its functions. Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, FOR THE RAPID CURB OF Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Croup, Bronchitis, Incipient Consnmp* tion, and for the relief of Consumptive Patients in advanced stages of the disease* So wide is the field of its usefulness and so nu merous are the cases of its cures, that almost every section of country abounds in persona pub licly known, who have been restored from alarming ana even desperate diseases of the lunga by its use. When once tried, its superiority over every other medicine of its kind i 9 too apparent to escape observation, and where its virtues are known, tne Jiublic no longer hesitate what antidote to employ or the distressing and dangerous affections of the pulmonary organs that are incident to our climate. While many inferior remedies thrust upon the community have failed and been disc&racd, this has gained friends by every trial, conferred benefits on tne afflicted they can never forget, and pro duced cures too numerous and too remarkable to be forgotten.
