William Armstrong, of the said City, being duly
"Sworn, doth depose and say that he is a practical.
Druggist and f Ihemist That some time in the latter
rwtttf May, or first or June, a man by the namo
o,Jacob Townsend, who at that time .was a book and ,
jianiphlet peddler, called upon deponent, at the house
'of 1r. Thompson, No. Ai Hudson-street, Where depo
nent hoarded, and requested deponent to write him a
rsripe by which to make a Syrup of Sarsaparilla.
Deponent, further says, that he became acquainted
with said Townend a"t the office of Theodore Foster,
Esq., Book Publisher, with whom said Townsend
d&ut, That saidTow nsendhadhad frequent conversa
tions with deiionent respecting the manufacture of an
artlaleof Sarsaparilla to be sold under the name of Dr.
Jacob Townsend.
That said Townsend stated he was an old man, and
pooivcnd was not fit. for hard labor and wished to
make some monev, in order to live easy in his old
days, and that, if Sarsaparilla under the nameof-Town-send
sold so well, and so much money was made by
it, he-could see no reason "why he might not make
something out of it too, his name being Townsend,)
if he could get a capable person to prepare a recipe,
and manufacture it for him. Deponent in One of the
convocations asked said Townsend if he was related
toDr.'SlT. 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
oftuld furnish the requisite amount of capital and was
well prepared to defend himself against any attack
tliat might be made on him.
Deponent further says, that pursuant to the request
nftsaid Jacob Townsend; lie wrote a recipe for the
nttnufactuie of a Syrup of Sarsaparilla, and gave it to
him. Said Townsend observed that he wanted to
mekc a specimen to exhibit to his partners for their
approval, as he wislied to gratifv them in every thing,
ns they 'furnished all the capital said Townsend also
told deponent that the bottles they were to use were
to "be of the' same si.e and shape us Dr. S. P. Town
- sendls,. and 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 Sarsaparilla, sold
as Old Jacob Townsend's, is made after the recipe fur
jiishod by deponent, to Jacob Townsend, as aforesaid,

t3 - PROOF!! PROOF!!!
tJHqrci is proof conclusive that Dr. S. P. Townsend .
Saiwjmnlla is the original. The following is from
some of the most spcctahle papers in this State.
FROM THE
a Jfciv Torlc Daily Tribune.
" tixtSSm "We published an advertisement inadvertently
, fiomc. time,since that did injustice to Dr. S. T. Town
fcc'nd, "wh6 is the original proprietor of the preparation
if -.Sarsaparilla known as JJr. 'Townscnd's. Other
parties' have within the part few months engaged or
connected uMnselvcs "with a man by the name 'of
Townsend whoyut bp a medicine and'calls- it Jhy the
same name. This medicine was advertised in TItr
Tfihhneas the original, iui. This advertisement alsc
, 4caiitaiiiedr matter derogatory to the -character of Dr .
'S.X'Tov&iscnd tnd that of his medicine. We regret
jit. appeared, and in justice to the Dr. make this ex-.
pfsnstion.
- '- FROM THE ' -
- , Ktivr Torlt Dally Sun.
Dr'Towjcajuvus extraordinary advcrtisement,Tvhicb
lOccupiesHan cutiie page of the Set, will not escape
notice. Dr. S. P. Townsend, who is the original pro
prietor of Dr. Townsend's SaiFaparilla, anil "whose of
nVi; is next dnor to ours, where he has been for sever
al years, is driving an immense business. He receives
no" less than fuur hundred dozen of Sarsaparilla per
day, and even this enormous quantity does not supply
tHe "demand. No medicine ever gained so great a
jftpularity as his preparation of the -Sarsaparilla. His
cditipn of Almanacs for IB19 cost $22,000, and he
jhas. paid the New York Sri for advertising, in the
last four years, over $10,000, and he acknowledges
that it is the cheapest advertising he has had done.
This .medicine is exported to the Canadas, West In
3tes," South America and Europe, in considerable
quantitiesf and is coming into general use in th'oso
countries, as well as here.
Swindlers
"Druggists and others that sell Sarsaparilla for the
genuine and original Dr. Townserid's Sarsaparilla,
that is not signed uy S. P. Townsend, commits a fraud,
andiwindles 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 Townsend.
Some people -who are not well informed, and have
not read the papers, and not seen our advertisements,
have been led to suppose, that because these men ad
vertise.their stuff as u Old Jacob Townsendp," that it
mus"t;,fcf 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.
Till Old Jacob Toivnscnd.
They are endeavoring to palm ofl' on the public as
aa old Physician, Etc 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 deceive the public, they at the same time
assert that.their's is the Old Dr. Townsend's, and tLe
originals and endeavor to make the people believe
that thejstulTthey manufacturers the Dr. Townsend'
Sarsaparilla, that has performed so many wonderful
cures for the past ten years, and which Las gained
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 understoodthat the old man
is no relation to Dr. Townsend-whatever. In their ad
vertisements and circulars, they publish .a number of
2grbsiPfalsehoods respecting Dr. Townsend, which we

such a reputation as. M'ALLISTER'S ALL
HEALING OR WORLD-SALVE. Almosleve.,

in its praise. Une has been cured uy it, of tne
most painful Rheumatism, another of the Piles, a
third1 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, from a respectable citizen of Maiden

Maidencreek, Berks Co., March 30, 187.
Messrs. Ritter & Co. I desire to inform you
that I was entirely cured of a severe pain in the
back, by the use o"f M'Allisters All-Healing Salve,
which 1 purhhased from you. 1 suffered with it
for about 20 years, and at night was unable to

which were prescribed for me by physicians and
other persons, without receiving any relief, and
at last made trial ol this balve, with a result la
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,

Mrs. Auree.ihe wife of VVm. H. A'tree, Esq.,
was given up by Dr. Sewall of Washington,
Drs. Roe and McClellan of Philadelphia, Dr.
Roc and Dr. Molt, of flew York. Her friends
all thought, blie 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 cured her.
Mrs. Garrabrauiz, of Bull's Ferry, was also
cured of consumption by ihis Balsam when all
other remedies -failed 10 gire relief she was
reduced to a skelton. Dr. A. C. Castle, Den
tist , 28 j 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. Spiuing Blood, alarming as it may'
be, is effectually cured by ihis 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 oiher medicine he had ever
taken. Dr. L. J. Beals, 19 Delancy-'sireet,
gave ii to a sisier-inlaw who was laboring un
der Consumption, and to another sorely afflic
ted with ihe Asihma. In both cases its effects
were immediate, soon restoring ihem to com
fortable health.
Mrs. Lchrdia 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 altack by
a timely u?e of this medicine. -This indeed is

with raising blood, followed.by a cough,
pain in ihe side, and ali the usual symptoms of
consumption. He employed two of the best
physicians ; they did him no good, and told

It had saved his life. His daughter, residing

she had been troubled with a hacking cough,
and pain in the chest, for a long time, which
at last become so bad that she was obliged to

lei- in almost evervpart of the globe for their ex- 1 5

IN JHANY THOUSANDS
- of certificated instances, they have even rescued n

' invariaDly and infallibly, proved, tha ,t
- hirappeared scarcely less than miraculous 0
hose who were acquainted with the beautifully
phZopMcal principles upon which they are com
pounded, and upon which they consequently act.

tiioy were indebted for their name. -
Unlike the host of pernicious quackeries winch , ,
boast 'Vegetable ingredient the IJPE MEDI
CTiKES are purely and solely vegetable; and
contain neither Mercury, r 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
"iciioraut pretenders to medical science ; and were ,
' never before administered in so happily efficacious
a combination. .
The first operation is to loosen from the coata
of the stomach and bowels the various irnpuri- ,
ties and crudities constantly settling round them ;
and to remove the hardened fajces which collect ' .
in the convolutions of the small intestines. Other
medicines only partially cleanse these,-and leave
such collected masses behind to produce habitual ,
Costivencss,, with all its train of evils, or sudden
Diarrhnja 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 nuack medicines of the age. The second
effect of the VEGETABLE LIFE MEDI-
CHiES is 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
Jreely 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 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,
Anxiety, Languor, and Melancholy, which
are the general symptoms of Dyspepsia, will
vanish, as a natural consequence of its cure,
Costiyeness, by cleansing the whole length
of the intestines with a solveiit process, and
without violence ; all violeut 'purges leave the
bowels costive within two days.
Diarrhrjea and Cholera, by removing the
sharp acrid fluids by which these complaints are
occasioned, and by promoting tho lubricative se
cretion of the mucous membrane.
Fevers of all kinds, by restoring the blood to a
regular circulation, through the process of perspi
ration iu such cases, and the thorough solution of
all intestinal obstruction in others.
The Life Medicines have been known to
. cureEheumatisin permanently in three weeks,
and Gout in 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 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.
Scurvv, 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 hy their alterative effect upon the fluids that
feed the skin, and the morbid state of which occa
sions all eruptive complaints, sallow, cloudy, and
other disagreeable complexions.
Tho use of these Pills for a very short time
will eftect an entire cure of Salt Eheum, 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 -Afl a remedy for this most distressing
and obstinate malady, the VEGETABLE LIFE
HEDICUtfES deserve a distinct and emphatic
recommendation. It is well-known to hundreds
in this city, that the former proprietor of these
valuable j)Iedicines was himself afflicted with this
compainfor upwards of thirty-five years; and
that he-tried in vain every remedy prescribed
within the whole compass of the Materia Medica.

oue-thousand dollars worth of good, I am so much better
indeed, I am entirely relieved. You are at liberty to use
this for the benefit of tlw afflicted.

Fits! Fits II Fit!'.:
Dr. Townsend, not having tested his Sarsaparilla in cases
" of Fits, of course, never recommended it, and was surprised
to receive tho following from aa intelligent and respectable
Farmer in Westchester County;
Fordham, Augvtt 13, 1847.
Dr. Townsend -Dear Sir : I have a little girl, seven years
of age, who has been several years afflicted with Fits ; we
tried almost everything for her, but without success ; at last,
althon-h we could find no recommendation in your circulars'-1
,for cases like hers, we thought, as-she was in very delicate
health, we would give her some of your Sarsapanl'.a. and are
rervglad we did, for it not only restored her strength, but she
has'had no return of the Fits, to our great pleasure and sur
prise She is fat becoming ruirged and heatthv.for which we -&fl
grateful. Your,, respectfully,
Female Medicines.
Dr Towncnds Sarsaparilla is a sovereign and speedy cure
for Incipient Consumption, Barrenness, Prolapsus Uteri, or
Fallinir of tho Womb. Costivencss, Piles, Lcucorrhca, or
Whites, obstructed or difficult Menstruation Incontinence of
Urine, or involuntary dUchargo thereof, and for the gencraV
prostration of the 8y..tem-no matter whether the result
of inherent cause or causes, produced by irregularity, illness
or accident. Nothing can be more surprising than its m
vi"oratin" effect on the human frame. Persons all weakness
and latitude, from taking it, at once become robust and full
of ener"y under its influence. It immediately counteracts
the nervelcssness of the female frame, which is the great cams
of Barrenness. It will not be expected of u. in cases of s
delicate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures performed,
but we can assure the afflicted, lhat hundreds of cases have
been reported to us. Thousands of cases where families have
been without children, after using a few botUes of this invalua
ble Medicine, have been blessed with fine, healthy offspring.
Croat Ulcssins to Mothers and Children;
It is the safest and most effectual medicine for puntyimr the
. system, and relieving the sufferings attendant upon child
birth ever discovered. It strengthens both tho mother aud
the child, prevents pain and disease, increases and enriches
the food ; those who have used it, think it is inttepeusa.
ble It is hi-hly useful both before and after confinement,
.as it prevenu disrates attendant upon child-birth in Cos- -tivenf
s Piles. Cramns Swelling of the Feet. DMpnu.Inney,
Z rlhurn. W..ir. Pin in the Rack and Loins. Fals Pa.ru.
Hemorrhage, and in regulating the secretions and cqualmits .
the circulation, it has no. equal. The great beauty of inw
medicine is, it is alwavs safe, and the most delicate use it
most successfully, verj' few cases require any other luetli
cine, in some a little Castor Oil, or Magnesia is useful, tx
ercise in the open air, and light food with this medicine, will
always secure a safe and easy confinement.
Beauty and Health.
Cosmetics. Chalk, and a Variety of preparations generally
in use, when applied to the face, very soon spoil it ofit
beauty. Thev close the pores of the skin, and check tho circu
lation, -which' when nature is not thwarted by disease o
powder, or tho skin inflamed by the alkalies used in soups,
beauiitics its own production in the "human face Divine,7
as well as in the garden of rich and delicately tinted varie
gated flowers. A free, active and healthy circulation of the
. fluids, or the coursing of the pure, rich blood, to the extremi
ties, is that which paiuts the countenance in the most exqui
site beauty. It is that which imparts the indescribable shades
.and flashes of loveliness that all admire, but none can de
scribe. This beauty is the offspring of nature not ofpoteder
or soap. If there is not a free and healthy circulation, there
is no beauty. If the lady is fair as driven snow, if she paints,
and -use cosmeUcs. and the blood is thick, cold and impure,
she is not beautiful. If she be brown or yellow, and there
is pure and active blood, it gives a rich bloom to the checks,
and a brilliancy to their eyes that is fascinating.
This is why the southern, and especially the Spanish ladie
aro so much admird. Ladies in the north, who take but
little exercise, or are confined in closcrooms, or have spoiled
their complexion by the application of deleterious mixtures,
if they wish to regain elasticity of step, buoyant spirits, spark
ling eyes and beautiful complexion, they should use Dr.
Townsond's Sarsaparilla. Thousands who have tried it, are
more than satisfied, are-delighted. Ladies of every station
crowd our office daily.
The Kcr. John Soger
Of Jersey City, an old and highly respectable clergyman,
of the Baptist denomination, handed in the following ccrtifi
, catc at Dr. Townsend's office. It speaks for itself.
Dr. Toxensend Dear Sir : lam constrained to give you a
statement of tfie benefit I derived from nsiug your Snrsapa.
rilla, believing, by so doing, I shall render a beneht to thus
who are suffering as I have been. I was reduced for manv
-months by tho Dyspepsia, so much that it was with much dif
ficulty for mo to walk or keep about. I had also a tetter,
which covprod the most part of my head which was ex
tromely troublesome and soro ; it got to be almost a scab. J
ussd quite a number of remedies for both the complaints, but
received litUo or no benefit, until I took your Sariaparilla.
which, through the kindness of Providence, has. restored mo
to more than my usuat .health, ns I am now enjoying better
than 1 have for a number of years. I am now bO jears of
r ao. I believe it to bo nn invaluable medicine, and recom
mend it to my numerous acquaintances, which is very large,
as I have been a minister a great many years. I hope4lhis
hastv sketch may be as much benefit to you as your medictnei
has to me. 'JOHN SEGER Jersey City-
