A man by taking a table spoon full of the medicine nthe morning, fasting, may go into an hospitul where ample ure dying with the Plague or Yellow Fever.? lie may take the sick man by the hand, and turn him n his lied, and shall not take the disease?and if the Ircnglh of the patient is not exhausted the medicine will cure him This is the first public notice 1 have given of the discovery of this medicine, and 1 do not ntcnd to olfer it for sale at present, as every one mows the weather at this season of the year puts an nil to the awful effects of the Yellow Fever. My object at present is to inform the public, that in 'ase tiled sease should return the next year, that the rcpir may tie informed that there is a medicine, as ibovr described, to lie had. I would advise Captains ind Merchants tmding to the countries where the Plague ot Yellow Fever is prevalent, to take some of ny medicine with them 1 also prepare medicines that will effectually cure Hydrophobia, or the bite of any abid animal ?or the bite of ttie most poisonous snakes, ( I applied in time.
