It was now reduced to a certainty, that in - fiamation
of the lungs was rapidly taking place; and that this
would terminate my life in a very short time, was in
the highest degree probable.
At this critical stage, a messenger was despatched
to Cincinnati, and a celebrated Physician of that
place was consulted. When he was made acquaint
ed with my situation, he remarked that nothing could
be done by medical aid, lithe constitution itself was
not sufficient to throw off - the - than:sc.—
My friends now despaired of my recovery, and I
had no earthly ground of hope to survive many clays.
Fortunately at this juncture, I saw one of Dr. Wis
taes Pamphlets, entitled "Family Medical Guide,"
or "Treatise on Consumption of the Lungs." As I
had often heard of dying men "catching at straws,"
I felt this doing so myself. By the consent of my
Physicians, I sent to you for a bottle of the medicine
described viz: "Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry,"
which relieved me almost immediately. Atter I
had used some five or six bottles I so fat trey:meted as
to be vp and about. Mr cough ceased, and mydungs
were restored to a healthy state—all from OTC heal
ing and balmy influence and powerful rir-
Ines of IVistnr , s Balsam.
Were it not from the external injury I received in
my shoulder and arm by the explosion, I feel confi
dent that I might have been working at my trade
(which is blacksinithing,) but this has prevented.
By exposure, I have since taken several severe
colds, and my only remedy has been "the balsam."
And I now most cordially recommend the genuine
Wistar's Balsam to all who arc afflicted with Colds,
Coughs, or Lung Complaints. I consider it sn inval
uable„medicine--a real blessing to the world. Any
person desiring further information, may cap on me
any time, yours truly,

, ANOTHER ASTONISHING CURE!
WISTAIPS BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY, always triunt
phant! cure follows cure in its onward victorious
career!
• Darrori, Feb, 11th, 1815.
W. Whitmore.—Dear Sir: As youare the reg
ular authorized agent in Dayton, for the sale of "Dr.
Wistarsilalsain of Wild Cherry," I take this meth
od of making a statement of facts to you (which I
hope may be e ublished to the world) in reference to
an almost miraculous cure, wrought in my case by
means of the above Incaluqble Balsam.
Language fails to describe the salutary effects it pro
' duced, and the great benefit I derived from its use.
The citizens of Dayton and vicinity, well recol
lect that on the Bth of Angustlast, I received seri
ous injury from the explosion of a cannon. A por
tion of its contents entered my right side and breast;
and in all probability, sonic fragments or splinters of
the ram-rod passed through the , •plura," and pierced
the Lungs.
After the lapse of about six weeks, I was attacked
with a distressing coughand a riolent pain in my
right side. Some ten days after this when in a par
oxysm of coughing, suddenly and VICES broke, and
a lame quantity of very offensive matter, mixed
with * blood, was discharged; most of which found
passage through the opening of the wound. From
this epening there frequently passed a quantity of
air, supposed to issue from the lungs. During all
this time my sufferings were almost intolerable.
My physicians, meanwhile paid the strictest atten
tion to me, and did all in their power for any recov
ery. But with all their skill they could not reach
the seat of distress, after the Lungs had become affect
ed. I was visited during this time by at least twenty
Physicians.

And all other douses Originating from impurities of
the blood. '
in" They have cured, since their introduction,
over 2,000 persons, who have been given up as hope
less cases, by the most eminent Physicians.,
1:1:7' They arc patronized and recommended by
men of the highest distinction, among Whom art=
Hon. David R. Porter, Hon. Henry Clay,
Hon. John Q. Adams, Hon. Daniel Webster,
Hon. Martin Van Buren, lion. J. C. Calhoun;
Gen. Winfield Scott, Cul. It. M. Johnson,
Hou. James K. Polk, Gen. Lewis Cass.
9 Their virtues are so infallible that the money
will be returned in all cases they do not give univer
sal satisfaction. Although but two and a half years
have elapsed since these Celebrated Pills were first
introduced to the public, the sale of them in the
Eastern and middle States has far exceeded Dr.
Clickener's most sanguine expectations. During the
past year, alone, no less than 10,000 gross of boxes
have been sold in the State of New York, 6,000 in
Pennsylvania,-1,000 in Maryland, 3,000 in New Jer
sey, 2,000 in Delaware, and 9,000 in the New England
States, requiring the constant employment of 27
hands, exclusive of printers and engravers. In the
same period, upwards of 200,000 copies of the
"Family Doctor" have been ordered by agents in
every section of the country. These facts must
show, conclusively, that Dr. Clickeners Sugar Coat
ed Pills, besides tieing the very best medicine in the
world, are held in the highest estimation by the
public
We might extend this publication to an indefin
ite length, if we deemed it expedient to publish all
tersimonials vre have received, not only from agents
hut individuals and families, who have experienced
the benficial effects of Clickener's Sugar Coated
, Pills, but we deem it unnecessary. The most in
comestible evidence ortheir unprecedented success,
are the numberless Imitations and Counterfeits which
have already appeared, notwithstanding the brief pe
riod they have been before the public. Even some
of our staunchest pill makers have had the audacity
to imitate the Capsule of Sugar, in order to disguise
the ingredients of their rile compounds, and palm
thole off for the "real simon pure." Such paltry
shifts cannot last lung without exposing their hideous
deformity. Truth and. honesty must inevitably pre
vail over rascality and deception.

nr - Beware of an imitation article called Im
pros ed Sugar Coated Pills, purporting to be patented,
as both the piDs and the pretended patent are for
geries, got up( by a miserable quack in New York,
who, for the last four or five years, has made his
living by counterfeiting popular medicines.
Kr Remember, Dr. C. V. Clickeuer is the original
inventor of Sugar Coated Pills, and that nothing of
the sort was ever heard of until he introduced them
in June, IS-43. Purchasers should, therefore, always
ask for Clickener's Sugar Coated Vegetable Pills, and
take no other, or they will be made the victims of a
fraud.

~'~~~~~,
o the Inhabitants of Pittsburgh, sine..
gheny'xind the surrounding. Country.
IT was'not our desire to enter into any dispute with
the “Pekin Tea Company." We did not begin
the controversy—we deprecate a paper war, or any
other war, and profess ourselves to be advocates of
universal peace; but when we found statements made
to the public with such unblushing disregard to truth
as was exhibited in the Pekin Tea Company's attack
upon our establishment, we considered . it a duty We
owed to that public, as well as to ourselves, to repel
it by a plain statement of forts.
The moral qualifications or some people are So
convenient that they can believe any thing that they
like—or what is the same thing, by putting a good
Cue upon a fabrication, and repeating it three or four
times, they are enabled tp assume all 'the earnestness
and sincerity of truth, and notwithstanding the ex
travagance of their statements, and their total oppo
sition to facts, their neighbors are called very ' , ill
mannered" if they presume to question or doubt
their veracity. Thus though is stated that five
hundred thousand dollars worth of Black Tea was
imported by the Pekin Tea Company, we suppose
we must swallow it at once, or incur , their displeas
ure;' bet we cannot help being reminded of the story
of a "thousand black cats," which a boy declared
he saw upon the garden wall, which, upon inquiry,
dwindledslown to his father's old torn cat and anoth
er; and-we suspeet that these fi ve hundred thousand
dollars worth of black tea, if a similar test was ap
plied, would diminish it in about the same propor
tion. And yet the agent declares that no mysteries
are presented .! They have an agent at Pekin, but he
is ineng. They have another at Canton, but he is
Luridly unknown; and at New, York they receive
eaOO,W worth of black tea, which every body at the
Custom House is ignorant of! Now we confess that
these things appear so strange to us—so exceedingly
mysterious, as to shock our credulity not a little, and
at thrisk of being still considered gill mannered.-
we must persist in clashing such announcements With
the quackeries and hunibligs of the day.
It was also stated that the Canton Tea Company
was imitators of them; or in other word:, that allured
by their success, we had been induced to organize
our present establishinent=whereas, in point of fiiet,
we had, as already stated, carried on our business
successfidly FOcik YEARS before the Pekin Tea
Company was heard or! And without arrogating to
ourselves auy great degree of sagacity dr penetra
nun we may Yeutute to assert that it was the Unpar
alelled success of the Canton Tea Company, the Uni
versal celebrity of their teas, and the Increasing do
,
mind fur the same, that gave birth to the Pekin Ted
Company, and inlfabt that the very existence of that
establishment is an . acknowledgement of the supe
r riority of our methdd of business, and of the prefer
ence we have obted.
1 Many other statehrents, equally unfounded, we
have already examined, and the audacity displayed
lin these specimens will sufficiently show the degree
lof reliance to which any other statements from the
Pekin Tea Company are entitled.
Apart from the higher obligation of truth, we have
always considered it bail policy to resert to any un
fair means. In order to sustain our own character
we have never found it necessary to' detract our
neighbor's, or to write our . own panegyrics and then
attempt to palm them
. off upon the public as the dis
interested notices of editors of newspapers, which it
is well known might easily be done without any fur
ther bribery than paying for them as advertisements.
That the Pekin Tea Company thought fit to adopt a
different course was no concern of ours, and we
should not have interfered with their proceedings it'
they had left us unmolested. But they hail probably
forgotten the proverb, "those who live
. in glass
houses should not fling atones." Nearly six years
have elapsed Since 1.4 t: Canton Tea Crimp:my com
menced operations in this city; and as might base
been anticipated, they hare had 'to encounter the
prejudices of the ignorant Os well as to experience
the grossest misrepresentations of envious and inter
ested parties. Hitherto we have only smiled at their
puny assaults which have only recoiled upon the
parties themselves—we have confidently relied upon
the intrinsic merits of our own Teas, and we hare
every reason to be proud of the result. Despairing,
therefore, of any success in this vicinity, this rival
establishment is obliged to carry its fabrications to a
distance, rind then, by pompous annoucements on the
one hand, (which it well knows would be laughed at
here,) and a disparagement of the Cantrin Tea Com
pany on the other, where the facts are not known, it
hopes to impose u pon the unwary. A greater proof ,
of its having calculated upon the ignorance of the,
community need not be adduced than the fact of
their agents presuming to institute a comparison re
specting the localities and dimensions of the ware
houses of the two establishments, when it is well
known that the single branch of the Canton Tea Co.
at 163 Greenwich st. wouid more than compare with
the small store it has contented itself with until a very
recent period, situated as it was in the most obscure
part of Fulton street, and with the present addition
it has made, nu one would think of comparing, it with
the splendid store the Canton Tea Company have
just opened at 125 Chatham st. The value of proper
ty in the localities will show the esfunation of busi
ness men, and their decision has been pronounced
too long and too emphatically in favor oh the locali
ties of the Canton Tea Company, to require any
The Canton Tea Company have never pretended to
import all the teas that they dispose of, for the single
reason that a cargo of teas must necessarily be made
up of many inferior sorts, many of which are un
wholesome and never bind the way into their estab
lishment. 'They prefer selecting their stock rpm the
whole of the cartons cargoes that arrive friaint' time
to time, and from their long experience in this coun
try and in Europe, as well as their unlimited com
mand of capital, they have always ,been enabled to
secure the delicious teas for which they have beconle
so justly celebrated, and at prices, that hare defied
competition. It is this notorious fact that has exci
ted the ire of so many parties, and we should doubt
less have escaped the wrath of our neighbors of the
Pekin Tea Company, if they had not so well under
stood as well as felt its truth,
In conclusion we will only add that we entertain
no ill feeling toward the Pekin Te:L Company; but
w e earls them against circulating thlsehoods at our
expense—sooner or later it must come to our knOwl
edge, as we have now agencies throughout the Union,
and they may rely oil it that we shall not fail lo
ex
pose them in uhatecer quarter they are carried.
