SYRUP OF CARRAGEEN.
Recommended by the Faculty.
F HOWARD’S Original and Genu
• ine Compound Syrup of Carrageen,
a safe, simple, pleasant and effectual
remedy for Cough’s, Asthmas. Consump
tions, <fcc. This Syrup has stood the test
of experience and is now extensively pre
scribed by Physicians.
&3*Those who may have occasion to
use the preparation are advised to do so
tinder the guidance and direction of a
Physician.«£5
Many certificates might be obtained of
its efficacy, but the following are deemed
sufficient.
Certificates.—The compound syrup of
Carrageen, prepared by Mr F. Howard;
I deem an excellent and safe expectorant;
composed, as it is, principally, of the most
approved and efficient of this class of me
dicines, neatly and judiciously combined
with mucilages.

I ana acquainted with the composition
of Mr Howard’s “compound syrup of,
carrageen,” and have used it in my prac
tice, to the decided advantage of those of
my patients to whose cases it was appro
priate; it is a compound of safe and sim
ple expectorants and mucilaginous de
mulcents, so combined as to make a plea
sant ar.d efficient remedy, in chronic and
spasmodic coughs, whooping cough, and
some forms of asthma.

THE DIFFERENCE.
IT cannot be denied that whilst many medi
cines which ire recommended to the pub.
lie, have not even the negative merit of harm-,
lesaness, there are others which it would be
great injustice indeed and suicidal prejudice
to involve, untried, in a common condemna
tion. And when a medicine comes endorsed
with all the names that have adorned the an.
nals of the medical profession, and warrsnted
by the seal and signature of long and uniform
success, its proprietor makes no unreasonable
demand upon public confidence, when he
claims for i* a superior consideration.
The Camomile preparation of Dr. W. Evans
is undeniably entitled to this enviable diatinc
tion; for whilst no medical authority in exis.
tence condemns it, every medical work which
alludes to it, and every medical practitioner
that is acquainted with it, freely acknowledges
its pre-eminent virtues; and that the latter
should do so in opposition to their personal in
terest must be attributed either to their candor
and lave of truth, or to their uowillincnass to
mony ortnofiWtmw. -
Dr. W. F.vans does not ..
Camomile Tonic Pills cure a it disease*, n* >
frankly and conscientiously admits that they
will not He lay* no claim to the discovery
of the‘‘Philosopher's Stone;” and wishes no
body to believe that he sells the •; Rlixir of
Life;” but he does sty, and dots beiieve* and
can prove, that in debility and impaired con
stitutions; in nervous diseases of all kinds; »n
weakness of the digestive orgt-s; in incipient
consumptions whether of the lungs or the
liver; in the dreadful debility occasioned by
the use of purgatives; iu palsy; rheumatism;
(more especially) in the sickness incident to
mothers and to females of relaxed nerves; in
every case of delirium tremens or that disease
which is brought on by intemperance; in the
wretched horrors of mind and body, which ac
crue from occasional inebrety; in loss of appe
tite; languor; melancholy; pains in the head;
libms or sides, in corrupt; sallow and uncomely
! comcplexion, caused by the bad state of the
fluids—in all these cases, and in some others
mentioned in the bills of directions given with
his medicines, he does say, that the Camomile
Tonic Pills, interchanged occasionally with his
.nerient family Hills, (the best known) which
»re sold with them, will effect immediate relief;
and if used but for a fair period of trial, a perfect
cure. This much is placed beyond a doubt
bv daily testimonies which would be given on
oath, and for this milch Or W Evans can
conscientiously request confidence. He there
fore need only add that his Camomile Tonic
Hills together with his excellent family Ape
rient* Hilts, can be obtained, wholesale or re

PETER’S VEGETABLE PILLS
A RE recommended as decidedly supe
^rior to any other known corabinatior
of Medicineever offered to the American
people.
When taken according to the direction
accompaning them, they are highly bene
ficial in the prevention and cure of bilious
fevers, fever and ague, dispepsia, liver
complaints,sick head-ache, jaundice.asth
ma, dropsy, rheumatism, enlargement of
the spleen, piles, cramp and bilious cholic,
female obstructions, heart burn, rancid
furred tongue, distention of the stomach
and bowels, incipient diarrhoea, flatu
lence, habitualcostivencss, loss of appe
tite, blotched or sallow complexion, and
in all cases of torpor of the bowels, when
a cathartic or an aperient is needed.—
They have the testimony of the whole
medical profession in their favor, while
not a single case of ill consequences or in
efficiency, can be alleged against them.
rerhaps no article of the kind has ever
been offered to the public, supported by
testimonials of a character so decisive,
from sources as respectable, or that b*s
given more universal satisfaction.
Wherever these pills have been once
introduced into a family, they become a
standing remedy, and are called for again
and again, which is sufficient proof ol
their good qualities.
It is a truth, that almost every person
who has ever used Peter’s Vegetable Pills,
recommend them to their friends, and it
is from this circumstance alone, that they
have gained such an unrivalled reputa
tion.

DEATH AND DISEASE.
Mens sana, in corpore sano.
*‘A mind well lodged, and masculine of
course.”
Death met Disease the other day,
And thus they gossipped on the way.
Death— How comes it friend, in eve
ry *hape,
You let so many folks escape?
A few years back and every elf,
Once sick, you laid upon the shelf,
Dyspepsia then had power to kill—
Asthma defied the doctor’s skill—
The lancet too at ail times sought,
Its hecatomb of victims brought,
Then Costiceness could fatal prove,
And Rheumatism no power remove;
A simple cold, where’er you went,
A subject to my kingdom sent.
How comes it then, that now a-days,
Folksslip your gripe and go their ways?
Aithmfi^u^des^Dyspepsia cured,
SfnC to T)9\VrHT-U* idinut i u *.
Disease—Dread sire! I use all means
1 can,
To abbreviate the life of man:
I dog his footsteps from his birth,
’Till he returns to mother earth;
And though ’tistrue that mv success
Is datty growing less and less,
This satisfaction I can feel,
1 have not slackened in my zeal.
1 use all means I used of old.
Changes of weather—hot and cold,
I give them colds; I give them pains;
I rack their bones; I fire their veins,
t poison tnem with rancid bile.
In place of the digestive chyle,
Yet all is useless—nothing kills.
Death—How’s that?

NOTICE.
INTENDING to commence the manu
facture of BROOMS, I vill give a li
beral price for broom corn, dining the
coming fall; as I wish to purchase some
thousand pounds of the straw, this early
notice is given to induce persons to culti
vate the article. They will not only find
a ready and profitable sale for the straw,
but on trial, also find the seed to be a ve
Tff^eblfiWfViWP^.A^^rae food,
crop, will be given gratis.
The cultivation, of this article in the
north, is regarded as very profitable, and
would doubtless prove much more valua
ble in this section, if cultivated under
standing^. WM. M. CUING.
