I Q„ Q Q 3 Q | • [Translated from the German.] * LOUIS OFFON GOELICKE, % % of Germany, t The Greatest of Human Benefactors. S' Citizens of North and South America, To Louis Offon Goelicke, M. D., of Germany., [Europe,] belongs the imperishable honor of adding . a new and precious doctrine to the science of medi- } 9 me __ a doctrine which,though vehemently opposed! t)v many of the faculty, (of which he is a valuable{ number,) he proves to be as well founded in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ—a doctrine, upon the veritv ol which are suspended the lives of millions of our race, and which he boldiy challenges his op posers to refute, viz: Consumption is a disease al ways occasioned by a disordered state of Vis Vifce (or Life Principle) of the human body: often secretly lurking in the system for years before I there is the least complaint of the Lungs <£33 —and which may be as certainly, though not so quickly, cured, as a common cold or a simple headache. An invaluably precious doctrine this, as it imparts an important lesson to the apparently healthy of both sexes, leaching them that this insidious foe may t be an unobserved inmate of their “ clayey houses” • even while they imagine themselves secure from • its attacks, teaching them that the great secret inthe | art of preserving health is to pluck out the disease * when in the blade, and not wait till the full grown I ear m \ This illustrious benefactor of man is also entitled In youx unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude of a | w*si - ld,for the invention of his matchless Sanative, | —whose healing liat maj justly claim for it such a j title, since it has so signally triumphed over our | great common *£nemy, fff Consumption, both in the first and last stages,—a medicine which has i thoroughly filled the vacuum in the MateriaMedica, an i thereby proved itself the Conqueror of Phy sic iansSTf) —a medicine, for which all mankind will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent hand of a kind Providence,—a medicine whose wondrous virtues have been so glowingly pourtray ed even by sjrae 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 Mends into joyfulness. QQQ Q 3 GOELICKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE, A medicine of more value to man than the vast mines of Austria, of *leven the united treasures of our globe,—a medicine, wnich is obtained equally from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms, and thus possesses a three-fold power, a medicine, j which, though designed as a remedy for consump- j tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence over many diseases of the human system,—a medi cine, which begins to be valued by physicians, who are daily witnessing its astonishing cures of many whom they had lesigned to the grasp of the Insa tiable Glfcve. DOSE of the Sanative, for adults, one drop; tor children, a half-drop; and for infants, a quarter drop ; the directions explaining the manner of ta king a half or a quarter drop. Price —Three and one-third nx dollars ($2,00) p r half ounce. German-coin, value 75 cents. Q t? Q 3 Q A certificate from three members of the Medical f Profession in Germany, in Europe. We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine in Qermany, are well aware that, by our course, ( forfeit the friendship of some of the lacul ty, out not of itsbbenevolent members, who are un influenced by selfish motives. 1 hough we shall refrain from an expression of our opinion, either of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. Goeuck s new doctrine, we arg happy to say that we deem his Sanative too valuable not to be generally known —for what our eyes behold and our ears hear, we must believe. . We Hereby state, that when Dr. Louis Otten 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 to be a base impostor and the prince of quacks. But, on hearing so much the Sanative, against it and for it, we wej*e induced, from motives ot curi osity merely', to make trial of its reputed virtues upon a number of our most hopeless patients; and we now deem it our „boanden duty (even at the expense of self-interest) publicly ta acknowledge ijts efficacy in curing not only' consumption, but other fearful maladies, which we have heretotore believed to be incurable. Our contempt for the discoverer of this medicine was at once swallowed up in our utter astonishment at these unexpected results f and, as amends for our abuse of him, we do frankly confess to the world, that we believe him a philanthropistfwho does honor to the protes skn, and to our country', which gave him biith. The recent adoption of this medicine into some of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaran y that it performs all promises. It neet ad not our cstimonv, for wherever it is used it is its own best wi ness HERMAN ETMULLER,m. d. WALTER VAN GAULT, M. D. ADOLPHUS WERNER, m. d. Germany, December 10, 18S6. t ‘ t 3 & 9 It appears by the following information given to the public by' Dr. Rowland, that the much talked of Matchless Sanative 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 pleasure in publishing the fol lowing highly' important letter from a respectable gentleman in New-York, which he has recc ed, with many others of a similar character—also very interestingjnteUigcnce 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.- I. A letter from H. F. Sherwood, Esq., of New-York. 3QQ Q Q New-York, Oct. 9, 1537. Dr. D. S. Rowland, —Sir: About the middle cf auly last, I accidentally noticed in a newspaperthe Mvertisement of the Matchless Sanative, for which 1 perceived you were agent, and which professed to be a sovereign remedy for consumption. As my wife was then fast wasting away wiflk; his dreadful disease, and as our family physician was daily and anxiously endeavoring to restore her to health without success, I stepped over to his health and asited him if he had any objections to her taking this medicine. He replied tnat £: he was a crfecily willing Mrs. Sherwood should take thator t median so* mignt cnoose.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, being recommended by three physicians who had used it in their practice, she concluded to give it a trial. I 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, she suffered considerably for the first eMit or ton days, but was shortly able to eat and drink freely, without the last inconvenience. Within four weeks Lorn her first using the med icine, her feeble health and wasted form began to put on new strength, and she has been gaining from day to day until the present moment, to the utter astonishment of our family physician 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 sons in the United States, who have not yet heard of this medicine, measures ought speedily' to be adopted to have it more generally known. A number of persons in cur neighborhood, I un derstand, are taking it for otaer serious complaints, with very great benefit. I think of going to the South, with my' family, j sometime this fall, and in case I do, I will proclaim f the virtues of the Sanative m that quarter; for al though some of the physicians here arc actively op posed to it, I do sincerely be lieve it saved my 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. Testimony No. 2. One person in our village, who was considered b., 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 no question but this medicine has performed won derful cures in a host of cases, and that it is worthy j of general attention.— Brunswick Advertiser. ! Testimony No. . THE MATCHLESS SANATIVE.—By an article in our paper to-day, it will be seen that this medi cine has lost none of its virtues by crossing the At » lantic —for it appears to be working similar cures J in America to those which have astonished Europe, a —Boston Morning Post. | CCt For sale by BENJAMIN HALL, Agent, at I tiie Post-Office. dec 9 I* 111 accordance with the ostensible views J of the Southern Convention.

Mr. Ernenputsch, the Rector of the Academy, already favorably known to the community, has’ charge of the Classical department and all the branches of education requisite for admission to our best Colleges.

The branch of the Academy at Summerville is under the immediate management of Mr. Frank lin George, a gentleman of experience in teach ing, and highly recommended.
