V a § § p q [Translated from German,] 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. ♦ QQ Q 9 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.

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. „ WALTER VAN GAU V I, M. D. ADOLPHUS WERNEJI, M. n. Germany, December 10, 1886. * fc fc fc fc 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 T Sflilg Chronicle & Sentinel. 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. —Boston Morning Post. ■ For sale by BENJAMIN HALL, Agent, at the Post-Office. dec 9 In accordance with the ostensible views 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.

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.
