• PUBLIC ATTENTION
IS respectful 1> solicited by the subscriber, to an in
valuable preparation, the merits of which have
b«en tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
testimony
DR. RELFE’S BOTANICAL DROPS
are every year increasing their long established repu
tation. They have outlived many rival preparations,
and are continually gaining upon public confidence.
The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin
istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that
well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases
which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he
reditary predisposition in the patient, and genera >
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony s Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foal and Ob
stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint. , .
In the last mentioned condition of the system, the
Botanic,! Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk
intr poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
, rediury disease on his offspring
Dr. Relfc's Botanical Drops are successfully used in
cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches—pimples on the face—festering eruptions on
the skin—and other diseases of the external surface;
and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics
known, to free the system from humors
A physician of eminence, who had witnessed the ef
ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack
now ledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the
best medicine known, for the complaints for which it
is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at
the head of the whole class of such remedies.
Price $1 a bottle, o- 6 bottles for $5
WHITE TEETH & HEALTHY GUMS.
T1U3E who would retain or restore these desirable
personal advantages, ate assured that no compo
aition can be obtained superior t the
BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE.
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every
respect, and has, for many years past, given universal
satisfaction wherever it has been used
The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and
other deleterious ingredients, which too frequently
enter the composition of tooth powders in common
use, and it whitens tne enaraei ui me iccu*
doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad
mired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing
the accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ventive of the Tooth Ache The Denirifice removes
discolorations, and restores the beautiful native white
ness of the enamel. As its application braces and
strengthens the Gums, it secures to them their healthy
and florid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign
accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural
sweetness of the breath. Price 50 cents.

CONSUMPTION, ASTHMA & CATARRH.
IN that long train of diseases which seem to grow
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
talces the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
life; yet hia dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its
earl'ier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar
rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the
9agacitv of professional science. An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis
tration of simple and salutary remedies, is sure to be
reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive
symptoms oppression of the breast; greenish and
bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; shri
veiled extremities, and general emaciation of the
whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheeks;
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the lull posses
sionofthe mental faculties, and while hope still whis
pers her flattering tale—rold extremities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stages of this complaint, one of the
most approved remedies ever yet discovered is
DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and vet equally sate and
innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been lar advanc
edin a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit
ed the appearances which usually indicate a latal ter
mination of »he disorder.
As the Pills require in ordinary cases no confine
inent, they may be administered with confidence and
safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled
success has hitherto attended their administration in a
great variety of cases; and the proprietor can refer to
a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving
the emaciated victim Irora the bed of disease, and re
storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and
activity.
Price #1 for who/e boxes of 30 pills, and 50 cents for
half do. of 12 pills, with directions.
DEBILITATED FEMALES.
11 HE complaints peculiar to the female part of the
community, have oeen long successfully treated
by the administration of the Aromatic Puls, originally
prescribed and compounded by Ur Helfe They
cleanse the blood from those disorders of the female
constitution, for which the pills are an effectual speci
fic; they restore a free circula ion, reform the irregular
operations of the sangu ferous system, ani rectify tue
di ordered habits. The proprietor’s confidence in the
superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow
erful preparation, is founded on the most decisive tes
timony from many restored paiients. He can assure
thi9 portion of the public, ihat when
Dll. RELFE'S AROM \ fIC PILLS FOR
FEMALES
are regularly taken, according to the directions, ac
companying them, they revive and establish the desir
ed healthy habits, and restore to the pallid counte
Qance the natural glow of health and good spirits
Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex
cept in case9 of paegoancy, when they must not be
taken; neither must they be taken by persons of hec
tic or consumptive habits. They may be used success
fully by either men or women in all Hypochondriac,
Hysteric or Vapourish disorders. In all cases of this
description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the
disordered system. Price $l 50 a box.

BEWARE OF IMPOSITION.
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC
OINTMENT, (formerly Judkins,)
Prepared by C. HERSTOyS,near Frederick
. town, Maryland.
Richmond. Va- July 15, 18 >0
TOHF nublic will be pleased to understand that I was
T thePorigfnS discoverer of Judkins* Ointment and
sole proprietor of the patent from September. 1817.
until the expiration of the same; nut, havi S
ed myself with Dr. Judkins .n the commencement, I
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term
of the patent having expired on the 26th June, I have
made an improvement in the same, and taken out a pa
tent thereon N SHEPHERD*
q-> Imposition having been practised upon the nub
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of “ Jud
kins* Ointment,** the proprietor avads himself of the i
authority granted to him in his letters patent, now to .
call the Ointment after his own name. Henceforth it ■
will be known by the name of
SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT
MENT, (formerly Judkins'.)
When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had, in several instances experienced its good effects,
I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally faff into many
.hands, some of whom would probably undertake to
make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process ne
vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si
tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi
! nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera
ted Under these considerations, I secured the origi
nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases,
some of which have so long baffled the skill of me
dical science: . .
1st White swellings of every description;
2d Sore legs and ulcers of long standing,
3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particuhrlythose
hardened tumors in women*s breasts, which oftentimes
terminate in ulceiated cancers;
4tii Felons; or what some people know by the name
; of catarrhs, of every description.
5th Rheumatic pains ofthe joints;
6th Sprains and bruises of every desciiption, or in
whatever part situate;
i\( a tlIriiida. In this comnlaint the r>a
tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part
outof water;
8th Chilblains or partsaffected bv frost.
It is also one of the best remedies for burns and
scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a
short time. j
For inflamed women's breasts and glandular swel
lings, it is superior to any medicine vet known to the
m dical faculty • It is much safer than mercurial ap
plication?, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of
anv preparation of the mineral,) because it does not
lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold.
This Ointment has cured sores of many years stand
in^. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal tlw*
exte< -al sore, in consequence of the bones becoming
carious 01 rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries,
incretse the quantity of discharge, remove the offen
sive smell, and ease the pains
It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica
tion of forty-eight hours

Sir —My son having been afflicted for five years
with white swelling, and having applied every reme
dy recommended by the most eminent physicians
within mv reach without success, l at length procured
one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specific Ointment, and
made the application according to the directions ac
companying the ointment, and slate, for the oenefit
of the afflmted that Oefore one jug was used a perfect
cure was effected. My son has enjoyed good health
ever since. I have no doubt that to the Ointment alone
he is indebted; for nothing else was used for more
than nine months before the application of the Oint
ment Respectfully, Johw Cocke.

Ointment luring the last tnree years to every species
A tumor and wound, without failure to produce a cure
in every instance. 1 consider it the most decided ana
efficient remedy in all cases of tumor, be the cause
whatit may; and 1 have found nothing so good for
wounds of any description It may be proper to
add, that the cure of a tumor called white swelling,
riven over by the most distinguished physicians as in
curable, and which they decided would, without ampu*
i .ation, prove tatalto the patient, was, under my imme
diate notice, effected by the use of Judkins* Ointment,
and the patient is in fine health His limb affected by
ine tumor oeing restored to a perf’ectstate of sound

wounded, and exhibited one dreadfully ulcerated sur
face from the knee to the foot, and which, for more
than two years, nad been considered incurable, wasef
fectually cured by the application of Judkins* Oint
ment. I mention these two cases, whichfellunder my
immediate notice and management, as a decided evi
dence of the efficacy ofthis remedy in cases of tumor
and ofulcers* 1 haveexpe lenced, as decidedly, the
good effect ofthis remedy in the cure of Felons, and
of every species of fresh wound. It seems to me that

Doctor S. H. P. Lee, New London, Conn.
Dear Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that _I
have used your New London Bilious Pills in my fami
Jy and always found them an efficient purgative in al
most everv description of disease, and believe thev »»•
ved many a long doctor’s bill by their early and timely i
use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary
in their operation and effects until a few months past;
and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve
ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you
bad made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac
ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this
impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of
yours in a New Yorfc newspaper, designating spurious
imitations from your own manufacture, by haying your
WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions,
and that in no instance were the imitations signed with
pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other
respact Finding those I had without this test, I be
gan to suspect that “all was not fair in medicine, us
well as in politics, and called at several of our apothe
caries for your pills, with your written signature. I
found many without this test, but none with it, until I
came to the Messrs Keerls’, who assured me they had
them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using
them, found the same effects from them I had always
experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding ray
seff in possession of a medicine 1 so highly prize, that
that I cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this
information.
(£j» To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu
rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has
only to examine the bill of directions covering each
box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im
mediately under my printed name, they are genuine,
and prepared by me; bul if ohlt the printed name is
affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.

conviction is, that man is subject to one onlu rtA

Extract 0/ a Letter to L)rt Moat.
Sia: The motive which ha*- induced me to writefh«
letter to you, is, that I might be instrumental in the
recommendation of Morrison’s Universal \eget-'
Medicines to the afflicted, which, by the Divine dic
ing, has cured me of the Scarlet Fever. My case «»:
as follows: Whilst returning from Washington to Alex
andria, l was taken very ill, winch obliged me, on my
arrival, to retire suddenly to bed, but could not sleej
and the next day my throat became so much inflame::,
that I could scarcely swallow; and my face, brean,an
body, presented evident symptoms of the great ti
ger [ was in, and 1 knew not what to do; Calomel t
Mercury I abhorred as poison, and therefore dtsi ..
no assistance from the Druggist; but my mother, v
had experienced th*.* good effect of the Hygcia
in a case or two of her own, most strenuously advi-t:
me to try their virtue, which, with reluctance, I
sented to, and commenced by taking eight No 1 p «
at night, and eight No. 2 the next morning, and cm
linuod taking, increasing daily, morning and tverr.
until 1 took sixteen No. 2 at a time, which were d -
solved in water, as, by means of my sore throat, I coulc
not otherwise swallow them. 1 confess the dose m
me feel somewhat qualmish, &c.; but the pills end the
powders, of which 1 took one or two tea spoonsful! t
day, operated well, and the final result was, that I fei
nto a sound sleep, of which I had been deprived, %: -
the next morning awoke in a state of perspiration, freei
from fever, coo! and comfortable, and my reason (ft
I had been deranged in mind) returned; and on tie
9th day from the time l was first taken, Heft my toot
and have ever since enjoyed better health than Id
before. You have my leave to make what me .u
please of this. 1 wish you success, and am, sir, yt
obedient friend, M\RY ANN HJ\\ Lhi.
