DR. JAYNE, b?ing himself a I hysician. does no profess to perform physical ?mpo*Mb.lit.?i; but he does assurt, and is borne out by *veII a1' ' facto, that in all DISEASES OF THE LUNGS AND CHEST, which arc susceptible of c^wjth^. out miraculous interference, his EXI E ' ' . will restore the patient to health. No other ?<idi cine will remove the mucus or pus from ie i ? ? thoroughly ns this.

The Bangor (Maine) Journal says" A trial or Jayne's Expectorant will satisfy all that it is a speedy cure for Coughs. Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Hoarse ness, and all kinds of Pulmonary affections." Mr Ebenezer Webster, of Providence, (R. I.) was cured of a severe ASTIIMA, by using two bottles. Rev. Simeon Seiglried, was cured of Influenza, a Hoarseness, and a hard dry Cough by one bottle. Rev. Dr. Babcock, of Poughkeepsie, says that knowing Dr. Jayne to be a regular Physician, and having used his medicines personally and in his la mily, does not hesitate to commend them as safe and eminently useful medicines, and a valuable ad dition to our Materia Medica. Rev. JohnSegurof Lambcrtsville, New Jersey, who was suffering with a hoarseness and soreness of the lungs and throat, and a suffocating Asthma, was cured by one bottle. . . . Mr. J. L.

Mrs. Dilks, of Salem N. J. was cured of Asthma ol 20 years standing, by using two bottles of this medi- i cine. Mrs. Ward, also of Salem, was cured of the same complaint by live bottles. Dr. Hamilton of St. James, S. C. was greatly affected by a Cough, Hoarse ness, and soreness of the Lungs, and on using a bottle of this medicine found permanent relief." Lewis C. Levin,'the distinguished advocate ol Temperence, stated at a meeting of upwards ofthree thousand persons, that he should not have been able to address them, but for the use of 'Jayne's Expecto rant.' He said that he had been laboring under a hoarseness and severe oppression of the chest, that he had purchased some of the Expectorant the day be fore, which had relieved him in a few hours, and he found himself, conti ary to his own expectation,able to address the multitude.

JAYNE'S HAIR TONIC, every one may, if he chooses, pre serve his hair from falling off, or if already bald may with certainty have his hair restored again by a faith ful and persevering application of this valuable II AIR TONIC. . . Please to read without prejudice the following communication from the Philadelphia bun, whiih in addition to hundreds of others equally respectable should remove the doubts of every reasonable per son of the uniform and singular efficacy of JAYNE'S HAIR TONIC: We publish the following letter from a sense of duty to the public. It is just such a letter as we should have expected from such a source. W e know Dr. Quigly personally, and there is no man in the country, whose opinion is entitled to more rcspcct. He is on all subjects honest and sincere, and his high character as a Physician can be attested by the first medical men in this city.?Fhilad. Sun. Shephcrdstown, Va. Oct. 10, 1843. Dear Sir:?You inquire of me whether 1 have used your Hair Tonic, and the effects. Several years ago my hair began to fall rapidly from the scalp, and I had the prospect of premature baldness. During several years I used various pre parations recommcndcd for the hair, from which 1 derived no benefit. At length a friend recommended your Hair Tonic. I used three or four bottles ac cordine to the printed directions, and at the end o six months, my hair was thick set, and since its ten dency to turn grey was arrested. 1 have never before given a certificate, recommend ing patent medicines, which indiscriminately used, as they often are, do much injury, but in a case like the present, where I know the article to be beneficial and that it can do no harm, I have no scruples in stating facts within my own knowledge. Youn, &c. jQHpj QUIGLY, M. D. Dr. D. Jatne, Philadelphia. ALSO? JAYNE'S VERMIFUGE? JAYNE'S CARMINATIVE? JAYNE'S SANATIVE PILLS? For sale by R. S. PATTERSON, Sole ActNT, Washington, And O. M.

DEAFNESS. Dr. McNAIR'S ACOUSTIC OIL.?Those deaf from infancy often receive, in a most miraculous manner, their hearing when they least expect it, by some trifling accident or event, which shows them how easily they might have much sooner had their hearing, and skved themselves and their friends the pain 01 conversing in a loud tone, without pleasure, or of being neglected and shunned, to avoid that dis tress which is felt mutually by the deaf person and his hearers. How sacred a duty, therefore, it is that we use all necessary means to remove such an affliction, and enjoy the social qualities implanted in* our natures! This EAR OIL has the effect so to re lieve the tension, and bring into us the natural action of the parts, so as to restore the hearing when lost or impaired. This is proved by so many and well-known cases, that, where known, it needs no praise. The great wir.h of the proprietor is, that each may speak to others of its uncommon virtues, till sufferers may know, and be relieved and restored by its use. This will be dono in all cases of recent DEAFNESS and many of long standing. ALL DEAF PERSONS should use this oil! It will relieve at once, or, it DEAFNESS is just commencing, will remove the cause and check its progress. Those who have been long deaf should continue its application a few weeks to hear well. Each flask has full directions for use attached to it. AVOID ANY IMITATIONS. The true may be known by my signature on the flask.

OIL OF TANNIN, OR LEATHER RESTORER. A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY. Most people know that skins and hides are convert ed into leather by the use of Tannin extracted from ccrtain barks, &c. When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn out, leather becomes dead, hard dry, brittle, cracked, covered with a crust, Sic. This all know. To re store, then, life, softness, moistness, strength, smooth ness, and ramove all crust, fly, or blister?restore the tannin. This substance the leather never can receive the second lime; but the whole virtues of it are in this article, the OIL OF TANN'IN?which pene trates the stiffest and hardest leather, if it has been twenty years in use; and if it tears easily with the fingers, it imparts at once a strength that is utterly incredible until seen. It becomes like new leather, in all rcspects, with a delightful softness and polish, and makes all leather completely and peifectly im pervious to water?particularly boots, shoes, carri age-tops, harness, hose, trunks, and in fact all things made of leather, giving v splendid polish, even high er than new leather has, and at least doubling its wear and durability, in whatever manner the leather is used. THESE ARE FACTS. Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with corns, tide with oid carriage-tops?have old harness, and throw them aw y half used?look filthy them selves and all about them?expend double what is necessary for articles of leather to thoir hearts' con tent, for what we care, if their prejudices arc so strong, they.will oot try anew discovery. We have no favors to ask of them, they are the greatest sufferers, aud we beg for nobody's custom or patronage. Now, gvntlcmen, please yourselves.

Hall, late Professor of Chemistry at the Medioal College of this city: Washington, Jan. 28, 1843. Mr. Joseph E. Hover: Sir: I have made use of your Black Ink sufficiently long to ascertain that it possesses all the desirable qualities which are neces sary in the employment of steel pens more fully than any kind of ink that I had previously essayed, and I have got pretty well through the catalogue. I have not taken the trouble to test it chemically, as this has been already done by others whose certificates are as satisfactory to me as though the experiments had been made by myself. THOMAS P. JONES. Washington, Jan. 23, 1843. Mr. Joseph E Hover: Sir: 1 have examined and used part of the specimens of ink which you left with me, and am prepared to speak favorably of them both. Since I began to use metalic pens, I have never been able to obtain ink which would not mora or less corrode, and speedily destroy them. Yours appears to be free from every corrosive ingredient.
