SA WITT. llto •:. ,t. The Celebrated Prize Cure for Fever and Ague, bwy• a_ Tills Remedy Is purely vegetable, without any portion of foreign, deleterious, or mercurial ingredient whatever in Its composition. The con tents of a single Bottle is sufficient to cure the most obstinate case in a single day. It strengthens the stomach, invigorates the frame, and restores the system to its usually healthy state—in fact, it entirely prevents that languor end prostration of strength which always attends this disease, and is confidently recoil'. pended to all who have tried, in vain, other pre parations. .--- - Money making is the order of the tiny. and it is with this object that medicines ore prepared for the cure of diseases to which mankind are subject. It is the same with the baker and butch er, the manufacturer, mechanic, &c., and it is well that there is this stimulus to induce the thoughtful nod skilful to devise and prepare in convenient fortn, suitable remedies for the afflic ted. An individual, under a distressing and tor turing tit of Chills end Freer, is nut in a right condition to study out the means of relief; and it is more sensible and natural that he should look to others, than to depend upon his own prostrated energies for the antidote. For an appropriate and valuable remedy, therefore, it is folly to ob ject, because it is another's interest to dispose of it. To the invalid the important consideration is simply this, "Will 1 be benefited by the pur chase of the article offered?" The invalid.should inquire into the testimony presented to establish its value; the testimony should be carefully investigated, andjust so melt credit given to it, and no more, than it deserves. If of a personal character, we should look to the respectability of the witnesses, and the opportu nity which they have had for an observation of the facts, and the probable impartiality, and con sequent truthfulness, of their statements. Cor roborating statements of a number of respectable witnesses to the truth of any fact, may amount to irresistible evidence. We might enter into n detailed account of the study and labor incident to its preparation—of the scientific principles upon which it is based— of the necessity which exists, in the very nature of the compound, for effecting immediate cures in almost every instance—and of the character and respectability of the witnesses who have tes tified to the astonishing cures which it has inva riably performed. We might consecrate other cases, and cite-the testimony or others, and in deed weary our reader with repetitions of ens.. 'rids we deem unnecessary, and shall therefore confine ourselves to a selection of a few of those whose characters and standing in the community are well kucwn, and whose positions gave them the opportunity of testing the value of the Prize Cure. The gentlemen whose Certificates are given. are well known to the citizens of Lancaster and York Counties, in Pennsylvania, besides other portions of that State; also to the citizens of Ma ryjand who reside in the neighborhood of the Susquehanna and Tide-water Canal. One of the gentlemen named ..sacs MCCONKEY, Est., re presented York County in the Sonata of t'enn sylvania for n. my years. These gentlemen were all Contractors on the Susquehanna and Tide uvtter Canals, which terminate at Ilitvre-de- Grace, at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay.— The officers of the Companies were, of course, acquainted with the Contractors; and should there be any doubt, application may be made to them fur the truth of she representation made in regard to the characters of those whose certificates are appended. TO THE PUBLIC: The undersigned, believing that great benefit will result to the public from a knowledge of the efficacy of the Plum: Cent: for FEVER and AGUE, do most cheerfully certify that we have, individ ually, witnessed Its successful operation in the number of eases annexed to our respective names, and that, in no instance within our knowledge, has it tidied to cure in a single day, by the use of the contents of a single bottle.

I have this day carefully inspected a conductor or Lightning Rod, with vane and index, erected by Mr. Thomas Armitage, On Bellevue House, Gloucester, and have no hesitation in saying that it is not only the best that I have over aeon, but that it is the only one I have yet examined that is constructed on strietly'scientik princirles. It is with much pleasure that I recommend this conductor to the attention of owners of buildings. 11. McM URTR lE. I am well satisfied that the Magnetic Lightning Rod, manufactured by Mr. Thomas Armitage, of Philadelphia, is the best that has ever been made• I have spent several years in the study of the laws of electricity and magnetism, and have no hesita tion in saying that these Rods aro constructed upon the only principle of safety. The electric shock is received and dispersed by the magnet at the top of the rod, and it would ho impossible, according to the laws of attraction and repulsion, fur a building to he injnred by a stroke of light ning when protected by one of these roils. I have been ae•quainted with Mr. Armitage for sev eral years, and betbre he commenced the mann fbeture of these rods I 'examined the principle on which they ere constructed, and Mt convinced that their adoption would be attended with com plete success. The increasing demand for these rods, and the extensive sales in all parts of the country, is ample commendation of their utility and superiority. TRACY E. WALTER, M. 1). Rising Sun, Mad.

It is put up on true scientific principles, and is a rod that has been approved by the highest authority, and will bear the most thorough examination.

In the following diseases, no other remedy has ever given such complete and perfect satisfaction to the patient as Pulvertnacher's Chains: Rheumatism, Painful and swelled Joints, Pains in the Back, Deafness, Blindness, Paraly sis, Neuralgia in the Face, Long standing Ner vous Headache, Palpitation of the Heart, Gener al Debility, Dyspepsia, Female Diseases, Asthma, Contracted Joints, &e. 1000 DOLLARS will be given to any person who will produce so many well authenticated certificates of cure frosts intelligent patients and scientific physicians, of the above diseases, as has been performed by the use ofahe Electric Chain during the past year. ANOTHER FAOT, It is truly the fact that wherever the electric chains have been introduced, bottled nostrums and common lard have greatly diminished in sale, people having become disgusted with the practice of using their stomachs for drug shops. RECOMMENDATIONS. The *Electric,,, Chains are highly recommended M by Professors ott, Van Buren, Post and °unw ell., of New York; arc also in daily use in every Hospital in that city. The chains will last for years, are always ready for use, and produce no injurious results, when used as directed. FEMALE DISEASES. The introduction of the Electric Chain into this country is the dawn of a new era in medicine.- Itiring the last twenty years, it can safely he ce tintated that ten thousand females have died year ly from this one disease, PROLAPSUS UTERI. It is well known to medical men that this com mon disease is beyond the reach of medicine, and that in proportion to the amount of medicine giv en, the more the patient is doomed to suffer, and sooner will death close the scene. During the last 0 years more than one thousand eases of Prolaps e s Uteri (falling of the womb) hose been permanently cured in Englund and France. Most of those cases were ladies of high standing, who had previously tried all other kinds of treatment with no benefit. Among the distin guished ladies that have been cured in Paris is the present Queen of FEalle. In this country, du ring the last year, one hundred cases have been cured in the city of New York, many who have allowed their names to be published for the bene fit of those suffering with similar complaints.— The mode of use is simply to apply one end of a aU link chain to the spine just.atbove the hips, and the other end upon the abdomen, and allow the ehain to remain for ono hour. This to ho repeat ed four times during the twenty-four hours. CHRONIC RHEUMATISM. The Electric Chains never fail to relieve the serere pains and swelling incident to this disease. The worst forms of this disease readily yield to a few upplieetioes of a chain, and in no single in stance have they failed to give instant relief, if they did not effect a permanent cure. All persons who are victims of this usual winter complaint, are kindly invited to call and obtain a pamphlet of HOHACE W. SMITH, Agent for Hun tingdon county, who will also explain their mode of use. Theeleetrir chains can ho sent by mail to any part of the United States, by addressing (post paid) any of the agents in the principal cities, or Joseph Steinert, 568, Broadway Now York.
