Trpe to know it is merely to know that fact, as to know, that, force exists and has'its laws, is to know all that it g to 'mb to discover of the force itself. The great tovery of Newton-that starting point f ph ?ad science-gave us no mors real insighi 41: t4essence of attraction than thl'dis cove . flof Yellow Fever into its pathology and r. jHe only told us the true and exact mode i re~Ih the force that draws together the ultima .rticles of matter and the masses of the Unive( operates. He found out the law, not the force of alp n. If then the physician can, by the observtion of phenomena and by the process of induction find out the laws of the normal and abnormal action of the animal econorly, towards a certain condition, he has accomplished for the science of life, what Newtop did for that of physics and Dalton for that of chimistry. He can with per tinency say : That, is a case of Yellow Fever, no matter how little he knows of that ci 'ition. CAnd this fact was enunciated. In this instance, the physician with the little he knew, guld have made something. The mee ting did nothing. "Ex rihilo iil fit." And yet, it is commonly said that mnedical men live bydisease, and cannot naturally be expected to bestir themselves for its removal.... as if the more the honest man knows, the less energetically he1'ould appeal to the-intelligence of his fellow beings.

By its powerfi'lly stimula ting, penetrating and Anodyne qualitii , it restores the use of limbs which have been pbalied for years: and by its singlar power of reproducing the Syno vial Fluid or J.,int Water, it cures all diseases of the Joints witf surprisir:g rapidity. For Rheum atism. and affections of the Spine and Spleen. it has proved itself a sPECIFIC; arnd for atf'~etions of the Lungs. Liver and Kidneys. it is a most valuable and powerful auxiliary; also. for all diseases of the Glands, Scrofula, Goitre of Swelled Neck. &c. &c. And indeed for almost any disease wherean exter nal application is required, this medicine stands un paralleled. From the Hon, Peter e inard, one of the oidest Settlers in Illinois. It gives me pleasure to add my testimony to the vii toes ofyour great medicine. One of my blooded horses had a swelling over the cap of the knee, a bout the size of a hen's egg. Some said it was a strain, and some. that it was the joint water from the knee.and could not be cured. I tried oil cedar on it, and all the liniments and ointiments, and they did no more good than water. I.then by persua sion of my iriends, tried H. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment, and I was happy to find it take effect af ter a few days, and it finally cured the noble ni mal entirely. I think it is decidedly the greatest liniment for horse as well as human flesh. I ever knew. [Esq. Baker, '.f New Canton, Ill, says .] Mr. II. G. Farrel:'- Arabian Liniment has cure, some bad cases here, which every other remedy lh,.. failed in; one was a white swelling and coutra,:ted cords in the legofa boy twelve years old. The leg had withered away, and was so contracted tlat he had ro USE of it. Three doctors had tried theii skill upon it in vain, and he was fast siukisg to the grave, when the boy's father was induced to try H. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment. Before the first bottle was used up he came into Mr.. B.'s store, and the first words he said were, "Mr. Beaker, I want allk that Liniment you havi in the store; the one bottle I got did my boy more good than all that had ever been done before." That boy is now well and hearty, and has free use of his legs. It is good for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns and swellings. Being fully satisfied that H. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment is the best medicine in the world, I cleer fully recommend it. I had been afflicted for 16 years with a most severe pain in my breast artI shoulders, which wad so Lad that I could hardly do any work at all, and. would often have to lie in bed for two weeks at a time with it. I used your lin iment on it, and it cured me sound and well. I had, at the time of using your liniment: one of the worst coughs ever I had in my life; and it cured that too. I rubbed it in well over my breast an.d shoul ders. It is also excellent for frost-bitten feet, sores, swellings, sore throat, mange, erysipelas. &c. SISAAC CLAYTON. Kickapoo, Peoria co, Ills.
