a. a. FARRELL'S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT,
11. G. FARRELL'S G EN ErINE ARABIAN
LINIMENT is a most extraordinary medicine,
the truth of which is placed beyond doubt by
the vast sales of the article and the many cures
being daily performed by it, which previously
had resisted all other medicines and the skill
of the best physicians in the world. It is com•
posed of balsams, extracts and gums peculiar
to Arabia—possessing, in a concentrated form,
all their stimulating, anodyne, penetratingonm
thous and revulsive properties, and the same
which, ages ago, were used by the "Sons of the
Desert," with such miraculous success, is cu•
ring the diseases of both man and beast.
Read the following remarkable cure, Tchich
skmdcl of itself place fl. C. Farrell's
Arabian Liniment far beyond
any similar remedy.
The triumphant success of the great Arabian
remedy for man and beast,
IL G. FARRELL'S
CELEBRATED ARABIAN LINIMENT,
Is causing counterfeits to spring up all over
the country, spreading their baneful influence
over the land, robbing the pockets of the hon
est and unsuspecting, by imposing upon them
worthless and poisonous trash, for the genuine
H. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment. Fellow
Citizens I Look well before you buy, and see
that the label of the bottle has the letters H.G,
before Farrell's, for if it has not, it is counter
feit. The label around each bottle of the gen
uine Liniment reads thus, "IL G. Farrell's
Celebrated Arabian Liniment; " and the sig
nature of the proprietor, is written upon the
label also, and these words aro blown in the
glass bottle," 11. G. Farrell's Arabian Lini
ment, Peoria."
The daring boldness of the recreant who
would deceive the people by imposing upon
them worthless trash, for a really genuine med
icine, thus not only cheating them out of their
money, but that which is far dearer—their
health—ought to be held up in scorn, and re
ceive the contempt his dastardly Spirit merits.
Let every ono who regards his own health, and
wishes truth and honesty to triumph over de
ception and rascality, put his heel on all base
impositions, and uphold that which islets, and
right. The genuine H. G. Farrell's Arabian
Lin intent has proved itself to he the most re
markable medicne known for the cure of
rheumatism, neuralgia, pains, wherever located,
sprains, heroism, hardened lumps, burns, wounds
corns, chro& sore and weak oyes, lame back,
etc.cte.; anTis an effectual remedy for horses,
and cattle in the cure of aweeny, distemper,
lameness, dry shoulder, splint, wounds, etc. ,ete.,
and Will always stop the further progress of
poll-evil, fistula,
ringbone, and blood spavin,
if used in the begiung.

LIFE OF HORACE GREELEY,
Edit, or the Nuw York Tribune,
BY J.PARTON.
00 pp. Eluetraled. Price $1,25.
NEITHER with the conception nor the com
position of this book, has Mr. Ureeley had
anything to do. The author says in his pre
titee: "I undertook the task, simply because I
liked the man—because I had taken an inter.
est in his career—because I thought the story
of his life ought to be told." It is further sta
ted in the prethee, (and the publishers believe,
with perfect truth,) that "nothing has been told
or suppressed the sake of making out a
case." "The book," says the author, is us
true as I could make it:
In the preparation of this work, author visi
ted every place at which his hero resided, and
complied the account of his early life, which is
very full and extremely interesting, from the
narratives of his relatives, school-fellows, fel
lows apprentices, fellow journeymen and oth
ers.
As a leading object of the work was to show
how Houses GREELY came to lee the Mall he
is, the history is given of the origin of his opin
ions, politicaland religious, and as cum Mete an
account as possible of the wonderful develop
ment of his mind in untoward circumstances,
and with the utmost restricted means. Mr.
Greeley's arrival in New Yurk and his early
residence here are circumstantially narrated.
His first lift in life occupied in connection with
the establishment of the first cheap daily pa
per, and the author he seized the opportunity
lu give, for the first time, a history of the idea,
awl of its origination. The subsequent chap
ters present, in more or less of detail. Horace
Greely as an Editor, Poet, Author, and Public
Speaker—Horace timely in Congress, Abroad,
in his Sanctum, in Broadway, at Church, at
Home, on leis farm, etc. One chapter contains
a collection of his hest Editorial Repartees;
another, of his best Practical Suggestions ; an
other describes the Routine et the Daily Press,
in an account of the Tribune Office, by day and
night.
lie a word, the publishers believe that the
Life of Horace Greely will be one of the most
interesting, complete and reliable Biographies
that has ever appeared.

restored many afflicted ones to perfect health ;
as an evidence of which he has innumerable cer

stantly breathing an agreeable, healing vapor,
the medicinal properties must come in direct con•
tact with the whole of the arial cavity of the
lungs, and that escape the ninny and varied
changes produced upon them when introduced
into the stomach, and subjected to the process
of digestion. The Ilygeana is Ibr sate at all the
