the Tublic will learn the origin, or ratlicr where the
recipe for nyking the stuff they call Old Pr Jacoh
Townsend's Sarsaparilla, came fnim and will be able
to judge which is the genuine and originnl, and of the
honesty of the men who arc employed in selling it as
the original Dr Townsend's Sarsaparilla. Dr. S. P.
Townsend was the origin.il proprictorand inventor of
Dr. Townsend's Saisaparilla, and his medicine has
gained a reputation that no other remedy ever gained.
He manufactured over one million of bottles last year,
and is manufacturing at present 5,000 bottles per day.

"William Armstrong, of the said City, being duly
sworn, doth depose and say that, he is a practical
Druggist and Chemist That some time in the latter
part of May, or first of June, I84S, 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 42 Hudson-street, where depo
nent hoarded, and requester! deponent to write him a
recipe by which to make a Syrup of Sarsaparilla.
Deponent further says, that he became acquainted
with said Townsend a"t the oflice of Theodore Foster,
Esq., Hook Publisher, with whom said Townsend
dealt That said Townsend had had frequent conversa
tions with deponent respecting the manufacture of an
article of Sarsaparilla to be sold under the name of Dr.
Jacob Townsend.
That said Towncnd staled he was an old man, and
poor, and was not fit for hard labor and wished to
make some money, in order to live easy in his old
days, and that, if Sarsaparilla under the name of Town
tend sold so well, and so much money was made by
it, he could sec no reason why he might not make
something out of it too, (his name being Townsend,)
if he could get a capable jwrson to prepare a recipe,
and manufacture it tor him. Deponent in one of the
conversations asked said Townsend if he was related
to Dr. S. P. Townsend, to which he replied, that he
knew Dr. S. P. Townsend would be down on him after
he should commence. But that he 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.
Deponont lurther says, that pursuant to the request
of said Jacob Townsend, he wrote a recipe for the
manufacture of a Syrup of Sarsapatilla, and gave it to
him. Said Townsend observed that he wanted to
make a specimen to exhibit to his partners lor their
approval, as he wished to gmtifv them in every thing,
as they furnished all the capital .said Townsend also
told deponent that the bottles they were to use were
to be of the same siz.e and shape'as Dr. S. P. Town
send's, ami 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" Syrup of Ssrsnparilla, soW
ss OMjcobTown;end's, is made after the recipe fnr
nisheS 'by deponent, to Jacob Townsend, as aforesaid.
And further deponent saith not

PROOF! ! PROOF!!!
Here is proid" conclusive that Dr S P. Townsend's
Sarsf-rilla is the original. The followi-ig-is from
some of the most lespectable jwpeis in this State.
FROM THE
Jfctv York Dally Tribune.
Qg- Wc published an adtertisemcnt inadvertently
some time since that did injustice to Dr. S. P. Town
sen!, who is the original proprietor of the preparation
of Sarsaparilla known as Dr. TownscruPs. Other
panics have within the past lew months engage-! or
connected themselves with a msa by the n&ntc of
Townsend whoputup a medicine and'calls it by the
same name. Tins meSicine was advertised in" lr
7VtiMe-es the original, &c This advertisement sdsc
contained matter derogatory to the character of Dr
S. V ;Tiiscnd and that of his medicine. We regret
it sheared, and in justice to the Dr. make this ex
pleiKitwn. FROM THE
Kviv York DniJy Sun.
Dn. Towssifji's extraordiiwry advertisement, which
occupies an entire page of the Scrr, will not escape
notice. Dr. S. P. Townsend, who is the original pro
prietor of Dr. Townsend's Saisaparilla, and whose of
fice is next door to ours, where he has been for sever
al years, is driving an immense business. He receives
no less than four hundred dozen of Sarsaparilla per
day, and even this enormous quantity does not supply
the demand, .No medicine ever gained so great a
pn,utnrt as his preparation of the Sarsaparilla. His
edition of Almanacs for 1B49 cost $-22,000, and he
has paid the New York Sex for advertising, in the
last four years, over !0,WH), and he acknowledges
that it is the cheapest adveitisjng he has had done,
'ibis medicine is exported to the Canadss, "West In
dies, South America and Europe, in considerable
quantities, and is coming into general use in thoiO
countries, as well as here.
Strlmllrrs
Druggists and others that sell Sarsaparilla for the
genuine and original Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla,
that is not signed by S. P. Tow nsend, 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.
Old Jacob Tovrnsentl.
Some people who are not well informed, and hare
not read the papers, and not seen our advertisements,
have been led to suppose, that because these men ad
vertise their stufl' as ' Old Jacob Townsends," that it
must, of course, be the original. Jt is less than one
year since they commenced to make their medicine.
Ours has been in the market over ten years.
Tills Old Jacob Townsend.
.They are endeavoring to palm oil' on the public as
an old Physician, &c He is not a regular educated
Physician, and never 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 deceire the public, they at the same time
assert mat tneirs js the Old Dr. J ownsend's, and the
original ; and endeavor to make the people believe
that the stufl' they manufacture, is the Dr. Townsend's
Sarsaparilla, that has performed so many wonderful
cures for the past ten 5-ears, and which has gBined a
reputation which no other medicine ever enjoyed
which is "a base, villainous, unprincipled falsehood.
We have commenced suits against these men for
damages We wish it to be understood, that the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend whatever. In their ad
vertisements and circulars, they publish -z. number of
gross falsehoods respecting Dr. Townsend, which we
will not notice.
False Reports
Our opponents have published in the -papers, thai
Dr. S. P. Townsend w as dead. This they send to their
agents about the country, who report that we have
given up business, &c. &c. The public should be on
their guard, and not be deceived by these unprinci
pled men.

Are vou a mother! Your darling child, your

to her chamber by a dangerous cold, her pale
cheeks, her thin shrunken fingers, tell the hfod
disease has already gained upon her, the sound
of her sepulchral cough pierces your soul.
Young man, when jusi about to enter life,
disease sends a hear-crushing blight over the
fair proj-pects of the future, your hectic cough
and feeble limbs tell of your loss of hope, but
you need noi despair. There is a balm which
will heal the wounded lungs, it is
Sherman's all-healing balsam. , - ,
Mrs. Atiree, the wife of Win, H. AUree, Esq.,
was given up by Dr. Sewajl of Washington,
Drs. Roe and McClellan of Philadelphia, Dr.
Roe and Dr. tMoti 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 vas given and it cured her,
Mrs. Garrabrantz, of Bull's Ferry, was also
cured of consumption by (his Balsam when all
oiher remedies failed lo give relief she was
reduced to a skelton. Dr. A. C. Castle, 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
effecis in curing Asthma, which ii never fails
of doing. Spming 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
cured of cough and catarrhal affection of 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-street,
gave it to a sinter-inlaw who was laboring un
der Consumption, and lo another sorely afflic
led with the Asthma. In both cases its effects
were immediate, soon restoring (hem to com
fortable health.
Airs. Lchretia Wells, 95 Christie-st. suffered
from Asthma 42 years. Sherman's Balsam
relieved her at once, and she is comparatively
well, being enabled lo subdue every attack by
a timely use of this medicine. This indeed is

RAISING BLOOD AND CONSUMPTION"
Mr. Milne, Builder, in Brookfyn, was at
tacked with raising blood, followed by a cough,
pain in the tide, and all the usual symptoms of
consumption. He employed two of the best
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 Fulion street, and
got a botile ; it operated like a charm, stopped
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
at 127 Myrtle Avenue, can attest it.
Miss Ann Ma.ston, of Williamsburg, living
in Tenth, near South Founh-sireet, says That
she had been troubled with a hacking cough,
and pain in the chest, for a long lime, which
at last become so bad that she was obliged to
give up her school fur more than a year. She
ihen commenced taking the All-Healing Bal
samwhich soon alleviated her symptoms.
one is now lasi recovering, and has resumed
her laborious occupation as a teacher,
14 years Mr. John O'Neil, 10ih avenue and

MOFFAT'S
Life Pills and Phcenix Bitters
Thesa "Medicines have now been before the
public for a period of FIFTEEN YEAES, and
during that time have maintained a high charac
ter in almost everypart of tho globe for their ex
traordinary and immediate power of restoring per
. feet health to persons suffering 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 nostruma of the day
had utterly failed ; and to many thousands they '
have permanently secured that uniform enjoy
ment of health, without which life itself is but
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.
" It was to their manifest and sensible action in
purifying the springs and channels of life, and en
duing them with renewed tone and vigor, that
they were indebted for their name.
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries which
bonst of vegetable ingredients, the LIFE MEDI
CINES are purely and B0,e,y ve?.etab,e; aud
contain neither MercnTV, nor Antimony, nor
Arsenic nor any other mineral, in any form
whatever. They are 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 the
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 stomacli and howcls 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
Diarrhea 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 lungs,
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 the ban
ner of health in the blooming cheek.
The following are among the distressing va
riety of human diseasps 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,
Anxiety, Languor, 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,i by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints are
occasioned, and by promoting the lubricative se
cretion of the mucous membrane.
evei"S ul u" us uy lestonng 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 Life Medicines have been known to
cure Rheumatism permanently in three weeks,
and Gout in half that time, by removing local
inflammation from the muscles and ligaments of
the joints.
Dropsies f QH 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 the
air-vessels of the lungs from the mucous which
even slight colds will occasion, and which, if not
removed, becomes hardened, and produces these
dreadful diseases.
Scurvy, "Ulcers, and Inveterate Sores, by
the perfect purity which these LIFE MEDI
CINES give to the blood, and all the humors.
Scorhutic Eruptions and Bad Complex
ions, by their alterative eifbet upon the fluids that
feed tho 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 time
will effect an entire cure of Salt Rheum, 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 woret
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 afflicted with this
compaint for upwards of thirty-five yeaiis ; and
that he tried in vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the Materia Mr.dica.
He however at length tried the Medicine which
is now offered to the public, and ho was cured in
a very short time, after his recover had been pro
nounced not only improbable, but absolutely im
possible, by any human means.
FEVER AND AG-UB.
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 Debility, Loss of Appetite, and
Diseases of Females these medicines have been
used with the most beneficial results in cases of
this description : Kino's Evil and Scrofula, in
its worst forms, yields to the mild yet powerful
action of these remarkable Medicines. Nioht
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 become im
paired by the injudicious use of Mercury, will
find these Medicines a perfect cure, as they never
fail to eradicate from the system all the effects of
Mercury infinitely sooner than the most powerful
preparations of Sarsaparilla. A single trial will
place them beyond the 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 the city of New
York and abroad.

no doctor, and never win; bnt was formerly a worker on rati '
roads, canati, and the like. Yet he nsnnies the title of Dr.. for'

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND,
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
0d Dr. Townsend is now about 70 venrs of bec. and ha long"'
acen known as the AUTHOR anil" DISCOVERER "f the

I.J1.'1 Being poor, he was compelled to limit its manufacture, by
which means it has been kept t "f market, nud the sales cir
eumscribed to those only who had proved its worth, and knowa
ts value. It had reached the ears of many, nevertheless, a
those persons who had been healed of sore riiAtvuse. and savctl
from death, proclaimed its exrclleiice and wonderful
HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many years ago. that h had. by ht skill, scienre
and experience, devised an article which would be of iucaicn
.able advantage to mankind when the means wonU im fur
nished tf hring it into universal notice, when its inestimable
virtues would be known and appreciated. This time has come,
the means are supplied ; this

- incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. I Townsend's.it improves with ?zs. End
never changes, but for the better ; because it is prepared an icien

Sarsapar.Ha. Thear.'apiriiia root, it is well known to medical
men. contains many medicinal properties, and nme properties
which are inert or useless, and others, which if retained in pre

jurious to the sytm. some of the properties of Sawaparilia
nre so volatile, thai they entirely evaporate and are lo-.tin tha

these volatile principles, which fly oirin vapor, or as an exhala

Heaven forbid that we should deal in an article vhicii would

and whirh should bring d-v. r. upun the Old Dr. such a mountain

We wish it understood, because it is the absolute truths that
ij. I. Townsend's article and Old Dr. Jacob Town-end's Sar
saparilla Hre heavtn-vidt apart, ar.d infinite! dissimilar ; thai
they are unl.ke jn e ery particular, having not one single thinr

GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND'S
SARSAPARILLA.
This is so prepared, tha; all the inert properties of the Ssr
sapariila root are first removed, every thinz capable of becoming
acid or of fermentation, is extracted and rejected ; then exstff
particle of medical virtue is second In a pure and cn:icentrteijl
form; aJ thus it is rendered incapHbleoflosiiigany of its vain

Cure of iiiisnmeralle diseases.
Hence the renson why we hear commendation nn every sWs
