LOUIS OFFON GOELICKE,
of Germany i
The Greatest of Jenefactors.
Citizens of North and South America,
To Louis Offon Goelicke, I' D., of Germany,
[Europe,] belongs the imperishafie honor of adding
a new and precious doctrine to fse science of medi
cine—a doctrine which, though (|hemently opposed
by many of the faculty, (of whach he is a valuable
member,) he proves to be as we Y founded in truth
as any doctrine of Holy Writ —;f loctrine, upon the
verity of which are suspended tie lives of millions
of our race, and which he boldl>|:hallenges his op
posers to refute, viz : Consumption is a disease al
ways occasioned by a disordered! state of Vis Vitae
(or Life Principle) of the huma* body: (fj* often
secretly lurking in the system*, for years before
there is the least complaint of thf Lungs and
which may be as certainly, not so quickly,
cured, as a common cold or a simi*a headache. An
invaluably precious doctrine this* as it imparts an
important lesson to the apparent!| healthy of both
sexes, teaching them that this ijddicas foe may
be an unobserved inmate of their}' clayey houses”
even while they imagine themselves secure from
its attacks, teaching them that secret in the
art of preserving health is topluout the disease
when in the blade, and not wait titl the full grown
ear. \
This illustrious benefactor of is also entitled
to youi unfeigned gratitude, and tie gratitude of a
world,for the invention of his momt'idess Sanative,
—whose healing fiat may justly c.iim for it such a
title, since it has so signahy triumphed over our
great common enemy, fff Conscription, both in
the first and last stages, —a med{:ine which has
thoroughly filled the vacuum in thkjMateriaMedica,
arij thereby proved itself the (£/■ Cmnqueror of Phy
siciansjff)—a medicine, for whfh all mankind
will have abundant cause to blessgthe beneficent
hand of a kind Providence, —a ijr.sdicine whose
wondrous virtues have been so glovjfugly pourtray
ed even by same of our clergy, hP- their pastoral
visits to tee sick chamber ; by means they
often become the happy instrument .', of changing de
sponding into hope, sickness into and sad
of friends into joyfulness. ♦

GOELICKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE,
A medicine of more value to man than the vast
mines of Austria, or even the uni |;d treasures of
•sour globe, —a medicine, which i§ oftained equally
from the vegatable, animal and mineral kingdoms,
and thus possesses a three-fold powc?,—a medicine,
which, though designed as a remed* for consump
tion solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence
over many diseases of the human syjtera,—a medi
cine, which begins to be valued by j3ysicians,who
are daily witnessing its astonishing, ures of many
whom they had resigned to the grasg of the Insa
tiable Grave. T
DOSE of the Sanative, for adulto, one drop; for
children, a half-drop; and lor infa ,ts, a quarter
drop; the directions explaining the of ta
king a half or a quarter drop. i
Price —Three and wuc third rix dollars ($2,50)

A certificate from three members of the Medical
Profession in Germany, in Europe.
We, the undersigned, practitionerl of medicine
in Germany, are well aware that, if. our course,
we may forfeit the friendship of sontf of the facul
ty, teat not of its benevolent member sj who are un
influenced by selfish motives. Though we shall
refrain from an expression of our opinion, either
of the soundness or unsoundness of Ite- Goelick’s
new doctrine, we are happy to say tj.at we deem
his Sanative too valuable not to generally
known —for what our eyes behold snd our ears
hear, we must believe. | .
We nereby state, that when Dr| Louis Offen
Goe lick first came before the Germ fa public, as
the pretended discoverer of a new dex trine and a
new medicine, we held him in the Siighest con
tempt, believing and openly pronounc|hg him to be
a base impostor and the prince of But, on
hearing so much said about the Sanative, against it
and for it, we were induced, from
osity merely, to make trial of its refuted virtues
upon a number of our most hopeless patients;
we now deem it our bounden duty seven at the
expense of self-interest) publicly to
its elhcacy in curing not only consoption, but
other fearful maladies, which we havA heretofore
believed to be incurable. Our for the
discoverer of this medicine was at onc| swallowed
up in our utter astonishment at thesepnexpected
results; and, as amends for our abuse.* >f him, we
do frankly confess to the wovld, believe
him a philanthropist, who does honor the profes
sion, and to our country, which gave birth.
The recent adoption of this medicii|- into some
of our European hospitals, is a sufficient guaranty
that it performs all promises. It neiled not our
for wherever it is used it is *<s own best
wi ness. HERMAN ETMULLJR, m. d.

It appears by the following information given to
the public by Dr. Rowland, that the talked of
Matchless Sanative is indeed what it fkffesses to
be —an effectual and valuable medicine Jvorthy the
serious attention of every consumptive verson, and
_e sick generally. *
MATCHLESS SANATIVE.— DaviI S. Row
land, the General American Agent for ’£tis mighty
medieme, (invented bj the immortal iroelicke of
Germany'l has great pleasure in publishing the fol
lowing highly important letter from a fcspectable
gentleman in New-York, which he received,
with many others of a similar character--Uso very
interesting intelligence from several of Jis Agents,
as will be seen below —which., with the
certificate from three eminent German
must forever establish the character of tl-v Sanative
as being without a parallel in the history of medi
cine. i
Testimony No.- 1. *
A letter from H. F. Sherwood, Esq., of Ysw-York.
qqq n k
New-York, Oct. 1837.
Dr. D. S. Rowland, —Sir: About thelriddle of
ouly last,l accidentally noticed in a newjpaperthe
advertisement of the Matchless Sanative which
I perceived you were agent, and which l>rofessed
to be a sovereign remedy for consumption.
As ray wife was then fast wasting a* ay with
his dreadful disease, and as our family physician
was daily and anxiously endeavoring to r store her
to health without success, I stepped o\£i to his
1 health and asked him if he had any obj-r tions to
her taking this medicine. He replied thavy he was
perfectly willing Mrs. Sherwood should that or
any other raediem sn« rnigot cnoose, out i?e though

m■ - ■
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
j tite according to the directions. By pursuing this
course, she suffered considerably for the first eight
or ten days, but was shortly able to eat and drink
t freely, without the last inconvenience.
Wit! in four weeks from her first using the med
icine, feeble health and wasted form began to
put on new strergth,and she has been gainingfrom
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 <he United States, who have not yet heard
of this nedicine, measures ought speedily to be
adopted to have it more generally known.
A number of persons in our neighborhood, I un
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, I will proclaim
the virtues of the Sanative in that quarter; for al
though some of the physicians here are actively op
posed tolt, I do sincerely believe 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.
Ore person in our village, who was considered
by h;.s physician to be in a Consumption, has taken
the Sanati ve, and is now well. Another person,
subject to epileptic fits, has been greatly benefitted
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
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
in America to those which have astonished Europe.

ACADEMY OF RICHMOND COUNTY.
THE Trustees of this institution are happy to
have it in their power to state, that both the
principal Academy in Augusta, and the branch at
Summerville, have resumed their exercises, under
' the management of Teachers who have the full
confidence of the Trustees, and who, they are sa
tisfied, are fully entitled to that of the public.
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. His attainments as a scholar
and success in imparting useful knowledge, emi
nently qualify him for the discharge of°th’e im
portant duties of his station.
Mr. Ring, the principal English Teacher, re
cently engaged by the Board, comes with the high
est recommendations as to character, talents, lite
rary attainments and skill in teaching, and the
Trustees feel assured that he will sustain the re
putation which led to his selection.
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. The advantage of
the location of this branch of the Academy in one
of the most healthful neighborhoods in the State,
and sufficiently remote from the unfavorable in
fluence of a crowded town, are too well known to
need comment.
On the whole, the Board confidently recommend
to the public the principal Academy and the Branch
at Summerville, as being on a better footing than
they have heretofore been, and promising great
usefulness to those who may avail themselves of
the advantages which they offer.
