valuable preparation, the merits of which have
been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted
testimony
DR. RF/LFE’S
c? 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 m»n\ 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 pred'spo'dtion in the patient, and generally
appear under the various and distressing shapes of
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony’s Fire,
Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvv, Foul and Ob
stinate Ulcers. Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and
Venereal Taint.
In the last mentioned condition of the system, the
Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk
ing poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus
prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he
reditary disease on his offspring.
Dr. Kelfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in
eases of violent eruptions after the measles—red
blotches—pimples on the face—festering emotions 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 witness 'd theet
ficacv of this article, had the candor recently to ack
nowled?e 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 cl*-»s of such remedies.

WHITE TBBTH! AND HEALTHY GUMS!
rpHOSE who would retain or restore these desirable
1 personal advantages, are assured that no compo
sition can be obtained superior t the
BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE
This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every
respect, and has, for many year* 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 the enamel of the teeth without
doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad
mired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing
rlie accumulation of tartar, operates as the best pre
ventive of the Tooth Ache The Dentrifice 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 tne teeth, preserves the natur.ii
sweetness of the breath. Trie* 50 cents

Consumption!
Asthma! # Catarrh!
Iiethtt long train of diseases which seem to grow’
with the growth of civilized society, Consumption
takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human
lilt; yet this dreadful disorde* is easily overcome in its
earlier stages. It is only when neglected thst it ar
rive«at the terrific maturity whldi so often buflics the
sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough
is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con
sumption Improper pegiect in the timelv 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 extremeties, and general emaciation of the
whole boJv; prostration of strength; Bushed cheek*;
swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses
sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis
pen her flattering tale—«-old extremities, and a pre
mature death.
For the various stage* of this complaint, one ol the
most approved remedies ever yet discovered is
DU. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS.
This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and
innocent preparation, has effected thorough ami rapid
cures upon patients supposed to have been far advanc
ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit
cd the appearances which usudly indicate a fatal ter
mination of the disorder.
As the Tills require in ordinary cases no confine
rosnt, they may be administered with confidence and
safety to all ages an l 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 Irorn the bed of disease, and re
storing luni to the blessings of accustomed health and
activity.

constitution, for which the pills are an effectual speci
fic» they restores free circuit ion, reform the irregular
operationa ol the sangu ferous system, aui rectify the
disordered habits. I'he proprietor’s confidence in the
•upenor excellence of this equally innocent and pow
erful preparation, is founded on the most decisive tes
timony from many restored patients. Me can assure
tiiis portion of the public, that when
DR. RKLFE’S AROMATIC FILLS FOR
FEMALES
are regularly taken, according to the directions, ac
companying them, they revive and establish the desir
ed healthy habits, and restore to toe pallid counte
nance the natural glow of health and good spirits
Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex
cepl iu cases of paegmmey, when they must not be
taken; neither must they betaken by persons of hec
tic or consumptive habits. They may be used success
fully by either men or women in all Hypochondriac,

description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the
disordered system. Price #1 SO a box.

SHEPHERD’S PATENT SPECIFIC

Prepared by C. HERSTONS, near Frederick
town, Maryland.
Richmond. Va- July 15, 1830.
f|NHE public will be pleased to understand that 1 was |
JL the original discoverer of Judkins’Ointment, and'
sole proprietor of the patent from September, 1817,
until the expiration of the same; but, hsviug connect
ed myself with Ur. Judkins in the commencement, I
permitted the Ointment to bear his name. The term
of the patent having expired on the 26tii June, 1 have
made an improvement in the same, and taken out a pa
tent thereon. N. SUEPHERU.
XT" Imposition having been practised upon the nub
lie by a spurious article, bearing the name of •• Jud
kins' Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself of the
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
MRNT, (formerly Judkins'.)
When I first made and prepared this Ointment, ant
had, in several instances, experienced its good effects,
I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in wh
cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint
ment would be a valuable public benefit. I cmVuded
that the Ointment would occasionally fall '"Jo 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 s -
tuation, as it might in some degree rcsemole the or.gi
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 ob*un*le di*e**e*.

ved many a long doctor’s hill by their early and timely

in their operation and eflects 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
had made your loriune, and abandoned their manufac
ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this

yours inxNew for* newspaper, designating spurious
imitations from your own manufacture, by having your

and that in no instance were the imitations signed with

~H YGEIAHISDI.
THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy
of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of
our diseases, speak in a language which must carry
conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:—
Drown University, l»f-c.25, 18.1:1.
To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege
table Universal Medicines, for the State of llhode
I Island.
Sir—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com
pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a
brief statement of a cure, which, I think, I received
from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the
1 same the inure cheerfully, because thereby, perhaps,
I may be useful to some of my felluw-men, who may
' be afflicted with a similar disease.
Mv complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption,
and that my real condition may be explicitly un ler
stoo l, I state, in connexion with the relation of the
' cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep
tember, 18V2, I caught a severe cold, which settled on
my lungs; I was confined to my room about one week,
w th a fever, attended with considerable cough; my
cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining
my health; when, after about three weeks, in the
course ot the night, having returned the evening be
fore in usual health. I found myself bleeding at the
lungs. I had not, to my knowledge, received any hurt
I or Strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut
led. I spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left
: me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap
petite, and withal, very weak
A tew weeks determined that I was in a decline I
I received the attention of the most skilful Physicians,
| who often seemed to check the progress of the dis
\ ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. But
j reli[ise upon relapse, and each bringing me lower
i than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill,
, and warn me of an approaching* dissolution. Thus,
i months after the first attack, a *• tubercle” [small ul
! cer] broke ill the lungs, after which I spat blood, one
1 day. I continued to decline tw omonths longer, when
I obtained the Hygeian Medicines. I hail now been
tillable to sit op a whole day, for four months and a
i half. My feet were cold and lifde-*, sleep unsound,
1 cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the
afternoon from seventy-five t*> one hundred per mi*
1 mite, food produced great distress, appetite very
poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart,
attended with some cough, be. be. Such was my
condition, when I first became acquainted with the
llygeian Medicines I commenced taking the medi
cines, four pills at a dy?e, and increased the dose dai
ly, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten
• lays, my appetite became good, and fo >d produced
no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing,
um! in about forty days the symptoms of the disease
had nearly all disappeared
I took the medicine sixty days regularly every mght,
averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num
ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, l
took about four doses a week, until I had taken about
thirteen hundrt d pills, when 1 found myself restored
to health. After l commenced the llyg ian, I took
no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I
w«s able to resume my studi s in college, where I
have since remained without any recurrence of the
disease Hitherto I have been convalescent; and if
my strength is not yet fuMy r« turned, I am certain I
have less pains, and am mure free from temporary
sickness* than at any time since my earliest recollec
tion. Yours, wnth reapect,
HORACE T. LOVE.

Hear Sir—t wish to state that my sister, after severe
suffering, and employing a medical man three years,
was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines.
II* r complaint was a violent pain ami soreness in her
side; indeed, to use her own expression, her >s on
one side had turned in, actually deformed The pain
was a violent burning p.in, almost intolerable; so see
vere, that 'lie could not sit up for upwards of three
years- It was occasioned by over-lacing Iters <s If, and
perhaps, over exertion with it. After udng a few,
doses of No. 1 an 1 2, alternately, about eight pil*s for
a dose, the pain decreased, and, by perseverance in
their use, she is now restore*I to health; and I have
no objection to this case being mule public for the
benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly,
