GREAT DISCOVERY OF TIIE AGE.
IMPORTANT TO TOBACCO CHEWERS.
Dr. Gustav Linnard's Taste Restorative Troelies,
tie Great Suit-lit rite for Tobacco. It is a well
known and incontrovertable fact that the use of
Tobacco is the promoting cause of many of tb
most severe MENTAL AND PHYSICAL disorders
to which the race of man is subject, as euro ful d
alasis and loDg and painful experience have dear
ly proven that it coutainscertain narcotic and poi
sonous properties most dangerous iu their ffoota,
which by entering into the blood derange the
functions and operations of the Heart. causing ma
ny to sappo?e that organ to be seriously disoased.
TOBACCO affects also she entire nervous system,
manifesting itself as all who have ever used the
noxious weed will bear testimony in Lassitude.
Nervous Irritability, Water Brash. Dyspepsia, and
many other disorders of a similar character. The
'Taste Restorative Troches" are designed to coun
teract these baneful influences, and have proved
completely successful in a multitude of casoj. and
wherever used. Being harmless in themselves
they exert a beneficial effect upon the entire sys
tem, restoring the Taste which has become vitia
ted or destroyed by great indulgence, complete
ly removing the irritation and accompanying tick
ling sensation of the Throat which are always
consequent upon abstaining from the use of To
bacco, and by giving a healthy tone to the Stom
ach, invigorate the whole system.
l'ersons who are irretrievably undermining
their constitutions and shortening their liv,
should use these Troches immediately and throw
off the injurious and unpleasant habit of Tobace
Chewing.
These Troches or Lozenges are put up in a con
venient and portable form at the low price of la
cents per Box. A liberal discount to the Trade.

HAMMONTON LANDS. New EneU,U
Settlement. Hare Opportunity. To all
wanting Farms in a healthy place, tivent-fivm
miles from Philadelphia, on the Camden and At
lantic Railroad, New Jersey. An oI estate has
recently been opened for sale, and the first difi
sion of 10.000 acres divided up into farms of 20 a
eres and upwards. The soil is of the best quality
for the production of fruits, grains, Ac The pric
is $15 to S20 per acre, payable in eay quarter
yearly instalments, within a term of four jeers,
with interest. The terms are made easy, in order
to insure the rapid improvement of the land, by
enabling every industrious man to buy a farm.. It
is now being extenively improved by good roads,
and some of the best citizens from New England
and the Middle States are erecting large improve
ments. It is a scene of the greatest improvement
out of Philadulphia Seventy-five houses have
born built in 4 mouths. Practical farmers and bu
eiuess men from the length and breadth of the U
rjion arc settling there. It is an important busi
ness place, on acctMint of its being in the midst of
a great market. Every article raised on this laud
finds an immediate sale. The water is excellent,
and no such thing as fever is known. The soil is
a sandy or clay loam, with a clay bottom, and re
tentive of manures. It is free of stones and easilv
worked. It abounds largely in the phosphate,
and such is its fertility that from the crops pro
duced both upon' this land and the area adjoin
ing under cultivation, it will be found not lo be
excelled anwhere in the production of crops most
adapted to its market. The reader may be welL
- aware that the earliest and the best fruits and veg
etables come from New Jersey, which are annual
ly exported to the amount of millions of dollars.
The land, besides being accessible in every way
for fertilizers, has an abundant supply of the bet
qnality of muck manure.
Lumber and building materials can be had on
the spot at a cheap price, from the mills Other
mills are now being opened, and brickyards being
started on the ground. A person can put up a
frame tenement for present convenience for one
hundred dollars. On account of the extensive em
igration, this is the best course to pursue in order
togetaplaceto live in at first. Carpenters and buil
ders are on hand to put up houses on the best terms.
In settling here the emigrant has many advan
tages. Ho is within a few hours' ride of the great
cities in the Middle States and New England ; he
is near his old friends and associations; he i in a
settled country, wh -re every improvement and.
comfort of civilization is at hand ; he is in a heal
thy place, and is not subject to the certainty of
losinj the greater part of his family and k.i own
health by those malignant fevers whiob make the
graves of so many millions of the young and har
dy in far off regions away from h&we and friends.
