u<t Pierre e. buandin’s,
GenuineAnti-Rheumatic Salve.
VtIHIS well approved remedy, has been by
JL many repeated trials found to excel all oth
ers as yet offered to the public, for the cure of
all sorts of Rheumatism; its efficacy in giving
speedy relief in this complaint, is astonishing!
nbt only in easing the pain, but in dissolving
the coagulated lymph which fixes’ itself on va
rious parts, and by continuing to remain station -,
ary, produces iucureable lameness. Moreover
it is an excellent remedy to allay the pain of the
Gout, Paralytic Pain, help local Palsy, obviate
Gangrene, remove the Cramp, the Tooth-Acl.e,
and the Crick in tile back. It i3 superior to al
most every other application for burns ft scalds,
and if applied immediately, extracts the fire al
most instantaneously It infill ibly cures bruis
es and sprains, broken brea.-t, sore nipplej), ul
cers and sores. It is good for the mumps, sore
throat, the hooping cough, the piles, and any
kind of pain or ache.
When mercury has been used and by reason
of a cold becomes fixed (as it commonly does)
in the joints, by which means a joint swells, is
stiff and painful, by applying the Anti-Rheuma
tic Salve, one may expect to be relieved in a
short time; however, in some very cbstii-aie
cases, or of long standing, the warm-bath ma>
lie had recourse to with advantage, previous t.<
using the Salve.
The author being well known in the treat
ment and cure of Rheumatism, assures the pub
lic, that neither mercury nor any of As com
pounds, in any shape whatever, nor any ingre
dient injurious to health, enters the composi
tion of the Anti-Rheumatic Salve, which is otter
ed to the public not as a cure all, but as an ex
cellent and as an excellent and safe remedy for
external application. He relies on the halve to
recommend itself.
No sea vessel should be without this very val
uable Halve, ami all fan ilies ought always to
keep it in tlieir houses.
Certificate of l)r. T/i'/mas Fitch, JVo. 127 North
Ninth Street, Philadelphia.
I the Subscriber, a regular practitioner in
Physic and Surgery, now a citizen and inhabit
ant of the City of Philadelphia, do certify and
say, that l have examined Doctor Pierre E.
Brandin’s Genuine Anti-Rheumatic Salve, and
and having had it in my family, and for the good
and benefit of the pitbhc, I do recommend it
and particularly to those who are afflicted with
the complainte for which its Author recom
mends it. In faith of which, I have signed
the present Certificate this day, October the
24th 1815 Signed, THOMAS FITCH.
Witness, Peter Wm. Gautier.
Certificate of David Ayres. 1
I David Ayres, do hereby testify, that I have
been much troubled with the Cronical Rheu
matism, or Wandering Gout for years, hearing
of Dr. Pierre E Brandin’s Genuine Anti-Rheu
matic Salve, l bought a small box for trial, and
finding it gave me immediate relief, and answer
ed mv purposes better than any thing of tbg
kind as yet offered to the public, induced me to
buy one<ofliis large boxes Qne of my daugh
ters for some time was sorely afflicted with
Biles breaking out in various parts of her body,
and were very troublesome to her, she applied
Itlie said salve (as directed) to her biles, in a few
minutes her biles were easy, and in a short unit-
I cured’ Therefore from the gaod that land
my family has received from Dr. P. E. B’s Gen
uiue Anti-Aheumatic Salve, I freely recommend
it to the public, wishing my fellow creatures to
be relieved as I have been, considering the said
s:uve as far as my knowledge will admit, to lie
an excellent, safe and extraordinary remedy for
external application and doubt whether’ any
other can surpass it In faith of which I have
signed and delivered the present certificate in
presence of Peter Wm. Gautier.
Signed, DAVID AYRES.

AN ACT
! To establish a tribunal to enquire into the quali
fications of persons claiming to practice .Me
dicine, Surgery, & midwifery, witfdn city
of Savannah, and to giant certificates to the
same if found properly qualified.
Whereas, it appears by a memorial of ti'C
Mayor and Aldeimen of the city of Savannah,
that the good people of the said city, and es
pecially the poor & illiterate peopl® thereof, have
suffered heretofore much evii from the want of
proper laws to regulate the practice of medicine,
surgery, and midwifery 1 therein, the conse
quence of which w ant has been the indiscrimin
i ate and arrogant pretensions and undertakings
1 of manv unlearned and empirical persons to
practice therein in the said arts: And whereas,
sound policy and a proper regard for the healths
and fives of the citizens of a commercial, popu
lous, and growing city, require that the legisla
ture should guard against such an evil for the
• future:
§ 1. Beit therefore enacted hy the senate and
house of representatives of the state of Geor
gia in general assembly met, and i*is hereby
enacted by the authority of the same, That the
Georgia Medical Society established in the city

society, when application shall be made by any
person or persons for his, her, or their examina- 1
tion to the end aforesaid, to convene at their
customary place of meeting, and to decide
upon the appU- ant’s petition, within ten days
after they shall have been summoned to convene
by their president, or in his absence, sickness
or oiher inablitv, by the person or persons dis

moned by their secretary. And it shall be the
dutv of the said president, person or persons
performing his duties, or secretary, to summon
each and every member of the said society, by a
w ritten citation, expressing the object of the
meeting, the name or names of the applicant
or applicants, and the day of the examination,
within ten days after the application shall have
been made to him or them: Provided always,
that prior to the examination of any and every
applicant, the members of the said society shall
severally take a solemn oath, to be administered
by the mayor or any alderman of the city of Sa

if, in their judgments, he, she, or thevshall be
found duly learned and qualified, to practice in
the said arts of surgery, medicine, and midwife

also, that in their examination the said society
shall be restricted and confined to the investiga
tion of professional attainments aud capacity
alone, without regard to anv former or present
professional or moral reputa'ion, and shalknot at
any time require as a test of qualification, orany
degree of evidence thereof, that any applicant ‘
should have obtained a diploma from any medi- ,
cal college or university, or should have studied
-thereat, or elsewhere.
§ 2. And be it further enacted by theaclhori
ty aforesaid, That if, after application shall have

H. PRINCE,
There are few so ignorant as not to know
that a work like this, it’ even tolerably execut
ed, must possess extrinsic value. Th e compil
ation of this bookis allowed by competent jud
ges* to, be performed in a very masterly man
ner ; and the well known character of the gen
tleman whose name it bears, forbids the idea
of any deficiency of industry or talent, in exe
cuting the important service confided to bun by
the legislature.
It is believed that every man who can con
veniently buy this wmrk ought to possess it, be
cause it behooves every citizen to have som**
knowledge of the laws cfhis country. Tbeo
pinion’ expressed by Blaekstone is certainlv
correct, thatAs every man is interested m
the preservation of the laws, it is incumben*
uprin every man to be acquainted with th"?’
at least, witn which he is immediately concern
ed ; lest he incur the censure as well as inc-n -
venience, of living in society, without knoivnT
the obligations which it lays him tuutei”
