"William Armstrong, of the said I'ity, being duly
twoni, doth depose and say that he "is a practical
Dtuggist and Chemist. That some time in tlic latter
part of May, or first of June, 18-1S. a man by the name
of Jacob Townsend, who at that time was a book and
pamphlet peddler, called upon deponent, at the house
of Mr. Thompson. No. -12 Hudson-street, where depo
nent honnlcd, and requested deponent to write him a
recipe by which to make a Syrup of Sarsaparilla.
Deponent further Kays that lie became acquainted
with said Townend a't the oflice of Theodore Foster,
Esq., Book Publisher, with whom said Townsend
dealt That said Towncnd had had frequent conversa
tions with deponent i expecting the manufacture of an
nt tide of SarsapRrilla to be sold under the name of Dr.
Jacob Townsend.
That said Townsend sjateil lie was an old man, and
poor and was not lit for hard laborand wished tu
make some mftney, in order to live easy in his old
days, and that, if Sarsaparilla under the nameof Town
irnA sold so well, and to much money was made by
it, he could see no rc3srn why he might not make
something out of it too. (his name being Townsend,)
if he could get a capable person to prepaie a recipe,
and manufacture it for him. Deponent in one of the
conversations asked said Townsend if he was related
to Dr. S. P. Tow ncnd. to which he replied, that he
knew Dr. S. P. Townsend would be down on him after
he should commence. Rut that lsc did not care, for
him, as he had formed a co-partnership with men who
could furnish the requisite amount of capital and was
well prepared to defend himself against any attack
that might be made on him.
Deponent fin titer says, that pursuant to the request
of said Jacob Townsend, he wrote a recitc for the
manufacture of a Syrup of Sarsaparilla, and gave it to
him. Said Townsend observed that he wanted to
make a specimen to exhibit to his partners for their
appioval. as he wished to gratify them in every thing,
us they furnished all the capital said Townsend also
told deponent that the bottles they were to ue were
to be of the same sixe and shape's. Dr. S. P. Town
end"s, 8nd deponent, at the request of said Jacob
Townsend, went to the office of Dr. S. P. Townsend,
and procured one of his labels.
And deponent further says, that he has been inform
ed, and verily believes the Sy rup of Sarsaparilla, sold
as Old Jacob Towiisend's, is made after the recipe fur
nished by deponent, to Jacob Townsend, as aforesaid.
And further deponent saith not.

PROOF I I PROOF 1 1 1
Here is proof conclusive that Dr. S. P. Townend'$
Sarsajwrilla is the original. The following is fiom
some ol the must i expectable papers in this Slate.
FROM THE
JVc-vv YorJc Dally Trllmnc.
(? AVe published an advertisement inadvertently
some time since that did injustice to Dr. S. P. Town
send, who is the original .proprietor of the preparation
of Sarsaparilla known as Dr. Townsend's. Other
parties have within the past few months cngaged.or
connected themselves with a inon by the nam?of
Townsend who put up a medicine and calls it ny the
same name. This medicine was adxertiscd iu" The
Trihwte as the original, fee. This adi ertisement aUc
contained matter derogatory to the character of Dr
S. P. Townsend and that of his medicine. We legret
it appeared, and in justice to the Dr. make this ex
ploration. FROM THE
Xcvr York. Dnliy Sun.
Dr.. Town.si;m's extraordinary adveitisement.wliieh
occupies an entire page of the Si::, w ill not escape
notice. Dr. S. P. Townsend, who i the original pro
prietor of Dr. Townsend's Satfap-aiilla. and whose of
I'n'e is next dooi to ouis, uheic he has been for sever
al years, is driving an immense business. He receives
no less than four hundred do7.en of Sarsaparilla per
day, and even this enormous quantity does not supply
the demand. No medicine ever gained ?0 gieat a
popularity as his preparation of the Sansaparilla. His
edition of Almanacs fur 1KJ0 cost J2,0fl0, Rnd he
has.pttid the New lork Si-.n for advertising, in the
last four years, over $10,000, and he acknowledges
that it is the cheapest ad vcttising he has had done.
This medicine is cxpoited to the Canadas, AVcst In
dies, South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities, and is coming into gcueial use in thos'o
countries, as well as he: c.
SvrliifUrra.
Druggists and otheiu tlrat sell Sarsaparilla for the
genuine and original Dr. Townsend's .Satsapaiilla,
that is not signed by S. P. Townsend, commits a fraud,
and swindles the customers. Men that would be
guilty of such an act, would commit any other fraud
and no Druggist of common intelligence but knows
that ours is the only genuine.
OII Jacob Toivnsrud.
Some people who arc not well informed, and have
not read the papers, and not seen our advertisement?,
have been led to suppose, that because these men ad
vertise their stun" as " Old Jacob Towmends," that it
must, of course, be the original. It is less than one
year since they commenced to make their medicine.
Ours has been in the market over ten years.
This Old Jacob Town semi.
They are endeavoring to palm otf on the public ai
an old Physician, Sec. He is not a regular educated
Physician, and ncier attempted to manufacture a med
icine, until these men hired him for the use of his
name. They say they do not wish the people to be
lieve that their Sarsaparilla is ours, or the same but
the better to deceive the public, they at the same time
assert that fhcir's is the Old Dr. Townsend's, and the
original; and endeavor to make the people believe
that the stufl they manufacture, is the Dr. Townsend"
Sarsaparilla, that has performed so many wonderful
cures for the past ten years, and which has gained a
reputation which no other medicine ever enjoyed
which is a base, villainous, unprincipled falsehood.
AVc have commenced suits against these men for
damages. AVc wish it to be understood, that the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend whatever. In their ad
vertisements and circulars, they publish a number of
gi oss falsehoods respecting Dr.'Townsend, which we
will not notice.
False .Reports.
Our opponents have published in the papers, that
Dr. S. P. Townsend w as dead. This they send to their
agents about the country, who iejort that we have
given uj business, &.c. kc. The public should be on
their guard, and not be deceived by these unprinci
pled men.

There was never, perhaps, a medicine brought
before the public, that has in so short a lime won
such a reputation as M'ALLISTER'S ALL
HEALING OR WORLD-SALVE. Almost eve
ry person that has made trial of it speaks warmly
in its praise. One has been cured by it, of the
most painful Rheumatism, another of the Piles, a
third of a troublesome pain in the limbs, &c, &c.
If it does not give immediate relief, in every case,
it can do no injury, being applied outwardly. As
another evidence of the wonderful healing power
possessed by this salve, we subjoin the following
certificate, Jrom a respectable citizen of Maiden-
creek township in this county :
Maidencreek, Berks Co., March 30, 187.
"Messrs. Hitter & Co. I desire to inform you
that I was entirely cured of a severe pain in the
back, by the use of M'Allisters All-Healing Salve,
which I purhhased from you. 1 suffered with it
for about 20 years, and at night was unable to
sleep. During that time I tried various remedies,
which were prescribed for me by physicians and
other persons, without receiving any relief, and
at last made trial of this Salve, with a result fa
vorable beyond expectation. I am now entirely
free from the pain, and enjoy at night a peaceful
and sweet sleep. I have also used the Salve
since for other complaints, with similar happy re
sults. Your friend,

That dreadful cough The Lungs are in dan
ger ! The work of the destroyer hath begun...
TAe cough of consumption hath in it sounds
of Death !
Are you a mother? Your darling child, your
idol and earthly joy, is now perhaps, confined
to her cjiamber by a dangerous cold, her pale
cheeks, her thin shrunken fingers, loll the hlod
disease has already gained upon her, the sound
of her sepulchral cough pierces your soul.
Young man, when just about to enier life,
disease sends a hear-crushing blight over the
fair prospects of the future, your hectic cough
and feeble limbs lell of your loss of hope, but
you need not despair. There is a balm which
will heal the wounded lungs, it is
Sherman's all-healing balsam.
Mrs. Atiree, the wife of Wm. H. Attree, Esq.,
was given up by Dr. Sewall of Washington,
Drs. Roe and McClellan of Philadelphia, Dr.
Roe and Dr. Molt of New York, Her friends
all thought she must die. She had every ap
pearance of being in consumption, and was so
pronounced by her physicians Sherman's Bal
sam was given and it'eured her.
Mrs. Garrabrantz, of Bull's Ferry, was also
cured of consumption by this Balsam when all
oiher remedies failed to give relief she was
reduced to a skelion. Dr. A. C. Casile, Den
tist , 281 Broadway, has witnessed its effects
in several cases where no other medicine af
forded relief but the Balsam operated like a
charm. Dr. C. also witnessed its wonderful
effects in curing Asthma, which it never fails
of doing. Spilling Blood, alarming as it may
be, is effectually cured by this Balsam. It
heals the ruptured or wounded blood vessels,
and makes ihe lungs sound again.
Rev. Henry Jones, 108 Eighth avenue, was
cuied ofcouohand catarrhal affectioiKof 50
years standing. The first dose gave him more
relief than ali the other medicine he had ever
taken. Dr. L. J. Beals, 19 Delancy-sireel,
gave ii to a sister-inlaw who was laboring un
der Consumption, and lo another sorely afflic
ted with the Asthma. In both cases its effects
were immediate, soon restoring them to com
fortable health.
Mrs. Lchreiia Wells, 95 Christie-si. suffered
from Asihma 42 years. Sherman's Balsam
relieved her at once, and she is comparatively
well, being enabled to subdue every attack by
a timely use of this medicine. This indeed is
the great remedy for Coughs, Colds, Spitting
Blood, Liver Complaints, and all the affections
of tho throat, and even Asthma and Consump

RAISING BLOOD AND CONSUMPTION
Mr. Milne, Builder, in Brookfyn, was at
tacked with raising blood, followed by a cough,
pain in the side, and all the usual symptoms of
consumption. He employed two of the bet
physicians ; they did him no good, and told
him he could not live.
Hearing of ihe wonderful cures performed
by Sherman's Balsam, he sent at 10 o'clock at
night to Mrs. Hayes, 136 Fulton street, and
got a bottle ; it operated like a charm, slopped
the bleeding and cough! Before he had taken
one bottle he was able to be about his work.
It had saved his life. His daughter, residing
ai 127 Myrtle Avenue, can attest it.
Miss Ann Maston, of Williamsburg, living
in Tenth, near South Fourth-street, says That
she had been troubled with a hacking cough,
and pain in the cheat, for a long time, which
at last become so bad that she was obliged lo
give up her school for more than a year. She
then commenced taking the All-Healing Bal
sam which soon alleviated her symptoms.
She is now fast recovering, and has resumed
her laborious occupation as a leacher,
14 years Mr. John O'Neil, 1 0th- avenue and
2 1 si street, suffered with a cough, raising of
phlegm, and pain iu his side. Ho could get
no relief 'till he tried ihe All-Healing Balam,
which drove ihe pain from his side, allayed
the cough, and brought the disease upon the
surface; and before he had taken three bottles,
was entirely cured.

MOFFAT'S
Life Pills and Phrciiix Bitters.
These Medicines have now boot? before the
public for a period of FIFTEEN YEARS, atl
during that time have maintained a high, charac
ter in almost every part of the globe for their ex
traordinary and immediate power of restoring per
fect health to persona suilering under nearly every,
kind of disease to which the human frame is liable.
IN MANY THOUSANDS
of certificated instances, they have even rescued
sufferers from the very verge of an untimely
grave, after all the deceptive nofUrums of the day
had utterty failed ; and to many thousands they
have permanently secured that uniform enjoy
ment of health, without which life itself is hut
a partial blessing. So great, indeed, has their
efficacy invariably and infallibly proved, that it
has appeared scarcely less than miraculous to
those who were acquainted with the beautifully
philosophical principles upon which they are com
pounded, and upon which they consequently act.
ft was to their manifest and sensible action m
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en
duing them with renewed tone and vigor, that
theywere indebted for their name.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackerieswluch
boast of vegetable ingredients, the LIFE MEDI
CINES are purely and solely vegetable ; and
contain neither MerCUTV, ",,r Aatimony, nor
Arsenic "or nn other minera, m a,,y form
whatever. They aro entirely composed of ex
tracts from rare and powerful plants, the virtues
of which, though long known to several Indian
tribes, and recently to some eminent pharmaceu
tical chemists, are altogether unknown to tho
ignorant pretenders to medical science ; and were
never before administered in so happily efficacious
a combination.
The first operation is to loosen from the coats
of the stomach and bowels the various impuri
ties and crudities constantly settling round them ;
and to remove the hardened freces which collect
in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habitual
Costiveness, with all its train of evils, or sudden
Diarrlwa with its imminent dangers. This fact
is well-known to all regular anatomists who ex
amine the human bowels after death ; and hence
the prejudice of these well-informed men against
the quack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDI
CINES 's to cleanse the kidneys and the blad
der ; and, by this means, the liver and Jungs,
the healthful action of which entirely depends
upon the regularity of the urinary organs. The
blood, which takes its red color from the agency
of the liver and lungs, before it passes into the
heart, being thus purified by them, and nourished
by food coming from a clean stomach, courses
Ireely through the veins, renews every part of
the system, and triumphantly mounts tho ban
ner of health in the blooming cheek.
The following are among the distressing va
riety of human diseases in which the VEGE
TABLE LIFE MEDICINES are well known
to be infallible.
DYSPEPSIA, by thoroughly cleansing the
first and second stomachs, and creating a flow ol
pure healthy bile, instead of the stale and acrid
kind ; Flatulency, Loss of Appetite, Heart
burn, Headache, Restlessness, Ill-Temper,
Anxietv, Lanouor, and Melancholy, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure,
Costiveness, by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solvent process, and
without violence ; all violent purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
Diarrhoea and Cholera,, by removing the
sharp acrid lluids by which these complaints are
occasioned, and by promoting the lubricative se
cretion of the mucous membrane.
Fevers OI a'1 kinds, by restoring the blood to a
regular circulation, through the process of perspi
ration in such cases, and "the thorough 'solution of
all intestinal obstruction in others.
The Like Medicines have been known to
cure Rheumatism permanently in three weeks,
and Gout half that time, by removing local
inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of
the joints.
Dropsies of all kinds, by freeing and strength
ening the kidneys and bladder : they operate most
delightfully on these important organs, and hence
have ever been found a certain remedy for the
worst cases of Gravel.
Also Worms, by dislodging from the turnings
of the bowels the slimy matter to which these
creatures adhere.
Asthma and Consumption, by relieving Ihe
air-vessels of the lungs from the mucous which
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these
dreadfid diseases.
Scurvy, "Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by
the perfect purity which these LIFE MEDI
CINES give to the blood, and all the humors.
Scorbutic Eruptions and Bad Complex
ions, hy their alterative efiect upon the fluids that
feed the skin, and the morbid state of which occa
sions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and
other disagreeable complexions.
The use of these Pills for a very short lime
will effect an entire cure of Salt Bheum, and a
striking improvement in the clearness of the skin.
Common Colds and Influenza will always be
cured, by one dose, or by two even in the worst
cases.
PILES. As a remedy for this most distressing
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE
MEDICINES deserve a distinct and emphatic
recommendation. It is well-known to hundreds
in this city, that the former proprietor of these
valuablo Medicines was himself afilicted with this
compaint for upwards of thirtv-kive years ; and
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the Materia Me.dica.
lie however at length tried the Medicine which
is now offered to the public, and he was cured in
a very Bhort time, after his recovery. had been pro
nounced not only improbable, but absolutely im
possible, by any human means.
FEVER AND AGUE.
For this scourge of the western country these
Medicines will be found a safe, speedy, and cer
tain remedy. Other" medicines leave the system
subject to a return of the disease a cure by these
medicines is permanent TRY THEM, BE
SATISFIED, AND BE CURED.
Bilious Fevers and Liver Complaints.
General Debilitji Loss ok Appetite, and
Disea8E8ok Females these medicines have been
used with the most beneficial results in cases of
this description : King's Evil and Scrofula, in
its worst forms, yields to the mild yet powerful
action of these remarkable Medicines. Night
Sweats, Nervous Debility, Nervous Com
plaints of all kinds, Palpitation of the Heart,
Painter's Colic, are speedily cured.
MERCURIAL DISEASES.
Persons whose constitutions have beconio im
paired by the injudicious use of Mercury, will
find these Medicines a perfect cure, as they never
fail to eradicate from the system nil the effects of
Mercury infinitely sooner than the most powerful
preparations of Sarsaparilla. A single trial will
placo them beyond tho reach of competition, in
the estimation of every patient.
BE CAREFUL OF COUNTERFEITS.
Several have lately been discovered, and their
nefarious authors arrested, both in tho city of New
York and abroad.

those persons who had been healed of sore dWeases. and saVf il
front death, proclaimed its evrellencr and wonderful
HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many ycai: ago. that he hail, by his skill, scirnru
and experience, devised an article which would be .if uicalnu

incapable o"f degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P Townsend's. it improves with age, ami
never chances, but for the better; because it is prepared n .ciii

Chemistry, and the latent discoveries of the art. have all been

men. contains winy meil'.cin ! properties, and some properties
which aro inert or useless, and others, which if retained in pre
