D., of Germany, Europe,] belongs the im perishable honor of adding ‘ a new and precious doctrine to the science of medi cine—a doctrine wnich, though vehemently opposed . oy manv«of the faculty, (of whicli he is a valuable j member# he proves to be as well founded in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ —adoctrine, upon the verity of which are suspended the lives of millions of our race, and which he boldly challenges his op posers to refute, viz: Consumption is a disease al wavs occasioned by a disordered state of Vis Vitae (01 Life Principle) of the human body: Q£j* often secretly lurking in the system for years before there is tiie least complaint of the Lungs JfXh-- and which may be as certainly, though not so quickly, « cured, as a common cod ora simple headache. An j invaluably precious doctrine this, as it imparts an important lesson to the apparently healthy of both j sexes, teaching them that this insidious foe may be an unobserved inmate of their “clayey houses” even while they imagine themselves secure Irom ts attacks, teaching them that the great secret in the art of preserving health is to pluck out the disease when in the blade, and not wait till the full grown ear. ThU illustrious benefactor of man is also entitled to youi unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude of a j world, wr tiie invention of his matchless Sanative, —whose healing fiat may justly claim for it such a title, since it has so signally triumphed over our great common enemy, Consumption, both in the first and last stages,—a medicine which has thoroughly' filled the vacuum in the Materia Med ica, an, thereby proved itself the (£/* Conqueror ts Phy siciunsjff)—a medicine, for which all mankind will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent band of a kind Providence, —a medicine whose wondrous virtues have been so glowingly pourtray ei even by ssme of our clergy, in their pastoral visits to tee sick chamber ; by which means they often become the happy instruments of changing de sponding into hope, sickness into health, and sad* of friends into joy fulness. Q Q GOELICKE'ifMATCHLESS SANATIVE, A medicine of more v r alue to man than the vast mines of Austria, or even the united treasures of our giooe,—a medicine, which is obtained equally from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms, and thus possesses a three fold power, a medicine, which, though designed as a remedy for consump tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence over tnaiu diseases of the human system,——a medi cine, which begins to be valued by physicians, who afe daily witnessing its astonishing cures o, many whom they had resigned to the grasp of the Insa tiable Grave. .

We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine in Germany, are well aware that, by our course, we may forfeit the friendship of some of the lacu - ty,but not of its benevolent members, who are un influenced by se'fish motives. 1 hough we shall refrain from an expression of our opinion, either of the soundness or unsounduess of Dr. Goelick s new doctrine we are happy to say that we deem his Sanative 100 valuable not to be generally known —for what our eyes behold and oui ea:s hear, we must believe. . We nereby state, that when Dr. Louis Often Goelick first came before the German public, as the pretended discoverer of a new doctrine and a new medicine, we held him in the highest con tempt, believing and openly pronouncing him m be a base impostor and the prince of quacks. But, on hearing so much saia about the Sanative, against it and for it, we were induced, from motives ol call osity merely, to make trial of its reputed virtues upon a number of our most hopeless patients; arm | we now deem it our bounden duty (even at the expense of self-interest) publicly to acknowledge its efficacy in curing not only consumption, but other fearful maladies, which we have heretotore believed to be incurable. Our contempt tor t e discoverer of this medicine was at once swallowed up in our utter astonishment at these unexpected results ; and, as amends for our abuse of him, we dfi frankly confess to the world, that we believe him a philanthropist, who does honor to the protes skn, and to our country', which gave him birth. The recent adoption of this medicine into some of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaran y that it performs all promises. It needed not our estimony, for wherever it is used it is its own es wi ness/ HERMAN ETMULIER,m. d. WALTER VAN GAULT, m. d. ADOLPHUS WERNER, m. d. Germany, December 10, 1886. Q (3 * 6 S It appears by the following information given to the public by Dr. Rowland, that the much talked of Matchless Sanative is indeed what it professes to be—an effectual and valuable medicine, worthy the serious attention of every consumptive person, and „e sick generally. MATCHLESS SANATIVE. —David S. Row land the General American Agent for this mighty medicine (invented by the immortal Goelicke of Germany) has great p easure in publishing the fol lowing highly important letter from a respectable 1 gentleman in New-York, which he has received, with many others of a similar character—also very interesting inteiligence from several of his Agents, as will be seen below —which, together with the certificate from three eminent German physicians, must forever establish the character of the Sanative as being without a parallel in the history' of medi cine. Testimony No.- 1. A letter from H. F. Sherwood, Esq., of New-York. nnq q Q New-York, Oct. 9,1837. Dr. D. S. Rowland, —Sir; About the middle of tmly last, I accidentally noticed in a newspaperthe advertisement of the Matchless Sanative, for which I perceived you were agent, and which professed to be a sovereign remedy for consumption. As my wife was then fast wasting away with his dreadful disease, and as our family physician daily and anxiously endeavoring to restore her to health Without success, I stepped over to his health and as’.ted him if he had any objections to her taking this medicine. He replied mat “ne was aerfectly wilUpg Mrs. Sherwood should take that or pey otner meoicin tnt rnignt ccoose, out he though it could do her no good, as her lungs were rapidly consuming, and no human means could save her." Still, the Sanative, oeing recommended by three physicians who had used it in their practice, she concluded to give it a trial. 1 sent and pur chased a phial which she commenced taking three times a day-, giving a free indulgence to her appe tite according to the directions. By' pursuing this course, shesulfered considerably for the first eight or ten days, but was shortly able to eat and drink freely, without the last inconvenience. Within four weeks from her first using the med icine, her feeble health and wasted form began to put on new strergth, and sht has been gainingfrom f day day until the present moment, to the utter astonishment of our family pnysician and friends.— She is now enjoying a comfortable (though notper feet) state of health, is able to be about house and attend church. Mrs. Sherwood and myself are both fully of ( opinion, and so are all who know her remarkable | case, that she owes her live to the Sanative alone: | and as there are probably many consumptive per j sons in the United States, who have not yet heard j of this medicine, measures ought speedily' to be j adopted to have it more generally- known. 1 A number of persons in our neighborhood. I un j derstand, are taking it for other serious complaints, with very great benefit. I think of going to the South, with my- family, sometime this fall, and in case I do, 1 will proclaim j the virtues of the Sanative in that quarter; for al ii though some of the physicians here are actively op posed to it, I do sincerely believe it saved ray wife from an opening grave. If you think this letter will serve he public good, you are at liberty' to publish it. Respectfully, &c. H. F. SHERWOOD. Tf.stimony No. 2. One person in our village, who was considered by his physician to be in a Consumption, has taken the Sanative, and is now well. Another person, ■ subject to epileptic fits, has been greatly benelitted * by a short course of this medicine. There can be j no question but this medicine has performed won | derful cures in a host of cases, and that it is worthy 4of general attention. — Brunswick Advertiser. Testimony No. . j THE MATCHLESS SANATIVE.—By an article j in our paper to-day, it will be seen that this inedi ! cine has lost none of its virtues by r crossing the At -5 lantic —for it appears to be working similar cures I in America to those which have astonished Europe. , —Boston Morning Post. | (fff For sale by' BENJAMIN HALL, Agent, at | the Post-Office. dec 9 j lu accordance with the ostensible views I of the Southern Convention, j DIRECT IMPORTATION, t fTNHOMAS I.
