ANOTHER WONDERFUL CUKE! Philadki.piiia, April 9, 1846. Last August a year, 1 caught a violent cold, in consequence of getting wet in a showor of j"81'1, A circumstance so common gave me no immediate concern, supposing that 1 should soon get nd pi'it. On the contrary, however, 1 daily grew worse; a violent cough set in, then pain m my breast and between my shoulders. 1 now suffered great op pression from the great secretion of purulent mat ter in my lungs. I became greatly alarmed , and my friends considered my situation extremejj critical, the more so as loss of appetite, hectic fever, and night sweats rendered mc as weak as a child, and at night the sweat literally poured ott me! This was my condition when I commenced using " Thomson's Compound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naphtha." I procured one bottle, and ex perienced so much benefit that I resolved to con tinue it. it is now bix months since I ceased usm* the medicine, and the cur? remains perfect.

Acting directly upon the LUNGS, and; arresting their decay, it not only soothes and quiets at once the distress and pain attendant upon this hereto fore regarded fatal disease, but restores the lungs and their sympathising organs, to natural and healn thy action. Accompanying each package are gen-? eral instructions and directions (translated) for its use, adapted to all cases, and if strictly followed, will not fail, in every instance?if the lungs are not wholly consumed?of restoring to health which may be permanently secured by future care and avoiding too muoh exposure to atmospheric changes. LOUIS FONTAIN Price, eight Francs. 33**For the information of persons residing in the interior; any part of the government?he would state that the remedy is prepared and imported di rect from their Laboratories Paris, and that the same can be transported through mail, ks he is ad vised by officers of the Pott Office Department, to any post office in the countjry, at the same charge as for a double letter. Any persons, therefore, residing distant from this crty, who mry wish to avail themselves of the remedy, can do so by ad dressing him through the mail, post paid. Two dollars accompanying an order, will entitle a per son to one whole and one third package. Louis fontain: COLLETON BITTERS. THESE Bitters are purely a vegetabk com pound, and are offered to the public from principle of benevolence, under the fullest convic tion that they will bo found a safe and sovereign ?emedy for Dyspepsia. They base been trium phantly tested, not only by some of the most re 'peelable families and physicians in the State of | South Carolina, who have furnished ample testi mony n? to their decided excellence, but also by the proprietor, who, for ten years, suffered all the gloom Kwident to that stubborn and distressing disease. They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to | most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by con tinued use. They contain not a single deleterious | ingredient, and, as seen from the directions which accompany each bottle, may lie given with entire safety to an infant in the month. With pleasure, and for the benefit of mankind, I send you a certificate relative to the Colleton Bit-1 terS. In the year 1838, when the cholera was in Charleston, S. C., I was compelled to send a servant | to the city. On his return, he was suddenly attack ed with most violent pain in his bowels; so much so as to cause apprehension that he would expire in a short time, if medical aid oould not be procured. 1 immediately resorted to the Colleton Bitters, by giv ing a wine glass full at a dose. In the course of a very short time it acted as an emetic, and throwing him at the same time into a profuse perspiration. 1 then continued to give it in small doses, from two to | three tea spoonsfull, which resulted in a happy re - - j ' **?' * *-? ? ??"V ^ in my family, in cases of cholera morbus, cholera infantum, diarrhoea and general debility, and in every instance found it highly beneficial. Some constitutions, however, require much larger doses than others. JOS. D. JEN KIN 8. Bluff ton, S. G., 1848. It is with feeling* or gratitude aa well aa pleasure that I take this method of giving my testimony of the great estimation which I entertain for your in valuable compound. In justice not only to the me dicine, but for the benefit of other* who may be suf fering from'the same malady, Dyspepsia, with which I was for years afflicted, I feel it a duty incumbent on mo to state that I am now restored to perfect health. When I commenced taking the Colleton Bitters it was as a last resort. My debility from in digestion was so great that a cure was looked upon as almost hopeless. After taking it regularly and perseveringly for some time, my strength and di gestive powers were entirely restored. I have never taken a single doee of any other medicine for more than five years past. I can now eat the richest food without any unpleasant feelings whatever. I have also used Colleton Bitters freely in my family for cholera infantum, cholera morbus, general debility, and as a tonic after fever, with great success. As a family medicine I deem it invaluable, and do con scientiously recommend it, A. M. R. Ht. John's Colleton, S. C., December, 184ft. For sale by the only Agent for the District of Columbia, B.

THIS remarkable invention, which haa received the almokf universal approbation of the medical probation of Great Britain, comprises an entirely new application of Galvaniam, aa a remedial agent by means of which (he ordinary Galvanic Batteriee. Electric and Magnvtic Machines, 4tc. are entirely,1 diapenbal with, and ih?j pysterious power of Galvan iain applied without any of the objections which are inseparable from the general mode now in uae. The Galvanic Riiigs Have been uc.-d with antir* success in all caf?* ?f rheuntatiem, acuta or chronic^ applying to the hea*Vfa*> or limbe ; gout, tic-dolo. reux, toothache, bronchitis, vertigo, nervous or sick headar.hr, indigestion, paralysis, palsy, epilepsy, fits, cramp, palpitation of the heart, apoplexy, atitfneaa of the joints, spinal complaints, lumbago, neuralgia, nervous tremo'rs, dizziness of the head, pains in the cheat and aide, general debility, deficiency of ner vous and phyalcal energy, and all nervous disorders. In case;; of confirmed dyspepsia, which is simply a nervous derangement of the digestive organs, tLey have been been found e^uaHy successful. Their exf tiaoidinary effects upon theayatem must be witnease<| to. be be belived, and aa a certain preventive for the preceding complaint* they are equally recommended. The rings are of different prices, being made of all sizes, and of varipua ornamental patterns, and ean be worn by the moat delicate female without the slightest inconvenience. In fact, the sensation is ra her agreeable than otherwise. Tut Galvanic Bblts, Bracelets, Bands, Gar uas, Nixklaies, 4u:. &c These articles are adapted to the waist, arms,, wrists, limbs, ankles, or any part of the body with porfect convenience. The Galvanic Necklaces are u*qd with greater benefit l* cobfc^ of bronchitis or affections of the throat gener ally ; also, in cases of nervous deafness; and with almost uniform success as a preventive for appoplexy, epileptic fits, and similar complaints. < Christie's Magnetic Fluid is used in connexion with the Galvanic Kings, and all their modifications. This composition haa been pronounced by the French Chemists to be one of the most extraordi nary discoveries of modern science. Full explana tion* and directions accompany it. The combined inventions are in every way perfectly harmless; they are at prices within rcach of all, and the discoveiot only requests a fair trial, as a test of their surprising efficacy and |>ertnanent benefit. CuRiHTib'u Galvanic Strengthening Plas ters.?These articles form auother valuable applica tion of the mysterious influence of Galvanism. They are an important adjunct to the genuine Galvanic Rings and their modifications, acting upon the same principle, bat having the advantage of more local ap plication* They are confidently recomended as a valuable addition in the speedy cure of rheumatism, acute or chronic; in all nervous complaints, and as a positive remedy in cases of pain and weakness in the chest or back, pain in the side, in asthmatic affections, and in weakness or oppression of the pulmonary or-' gans. In spinal complaints their effects are of the most decided character, and they have often been used with complete auccesa. They are abo of the greatest advantage in pains and weakness of the breast, and are highly recommended for many of those complaints to which females are especially li able. As an efFsctual means for strengthening the system when debilitated with disease and other cau ses, as a certain aid in constitutional weakness, as chest generally, the Galvanic Strengthening Plas ters will be found of great and permanent advan tage.
