Now, admitting that fever shows itself under vjiriom* forms, I am persuaded that the effect upon the mind of all this sub-division, is had and hurtful.

Since the introduction ot the DU UK in every part of the United States, its success Ims been so complete and unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in favor of its extraordinary merit. When these declarations were made, at tile date of its introduction, they seemed incredible to many, even of the most candid minds, because all the resources of Science had been taxed in vain to subdue ague or bilious diseases; and what was still worse for ague sufferers, all their remedies or treatment, whether scientific or empirical, have been limited to poisonous or destructive drugs, such as Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Salieine, &c. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and when such remedies fail, or give only tcnqiorary relief, their poisonous effects .ire siiperadded to the poor sufferer’s lirst complaint. On this account ague sufferers should la- particularly careful about using any secret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assert they may tie taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely iq>n destructive poisons. Now. ns a proof that the Remedy is not only valuable on account id’ its power to cure diseases, but that it. is also Woi'tHy of Public Confidence, Because of its Singular and Entire Harmlcssucss, The following certificate from one of the most celebrated chemists in the United States has been obtained, and a copy of it is attached to every bottle: New York, .June 11, 1855. •■I have made a chemical examination of Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Cure, or Antidote to .Malaria, and have tested it for Arsenic, Mercury, Quinine and Strychnine, but have not found a particle of either iu it. nor have 1 found any substance in its composition that would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMES It. CHILTON, M. D., Chemist.” It i; a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve tlie human family from malarious diseases, hut to do an equally good work by preventing the taking of other medicines which do harm. Ttie entire, absence of any baneful ingredient makes Ibis Remedy not more valuable ns a Cure, than it is as preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed as the one under consideration, if the medicine he taken in advance. This is owing to the diseases being produced by one and the same cause, and therefore all, lioth residents and travelers, should protect themselves hy the timely use of this preventive, and not wait for the poison already linking in their veins, to develop itself in a violent attack. Take the Cure as a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm. Full directions and advice us to diet mid habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a Bilious climate now accompany each bottle. It will often he found necessary to precede this medi cine hy a mild cathartic or mitibilious purgative. The very best tiling for general use is a moderate dose of Castor Oil. the object of which is to cleanse the stomach and free the biliary passage*. Remember that where this is necessary, or there is eostivencss, it must re taken or the operation of the antidote will be seriously ob structed. Only Caution. —Iu certain specified eases, pour the contents of one or more, bottles of the Cure into shallow vessels, (dining plates,) and place them ill sleeping rooms; for the vapor rising from the medicine, and also the air wafted across, or circulated over the dregs of it. after tlie liquid is evaporated, will counteract aud destroy, to ii dcgiec commensurate with its expo sure, the miasmata or poison contained in the apartment. This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise lie resorted to when very young infants tire exposed to malarious situations. The bottles in which this medicine is putup have the words, “Rhodes’ Fever and Auue Cure” blown in the glass, ami on the outside wrapper is the name of tlie medicine, (tlie copyright of which is secured) and tlie signature of Hie proprietor.

MAYING noticed the eertilicate of chemical analysis J J given by the celebrated chemist Dr. J. It. Chilton, nf New York city, in favor of Rhodes’ Fever and Ague Dure, that it contained neither Quinine, Arsenic, Mer curp nor Strychnine, and having received numerous ap plications for it, 1 was induced to send to Dr. Rhodes for tlie medicine. Since then 1 have disposed of a large quantity, mostly to residents of this city, who have inva riably been cured by it, and to whom 1 eon refer. 1 am, therefore, satisfied in recommending it to be all that tin- proprietor represents.

One reason it has sold, is because when 1 have heard of a ease of Ague or Chill Fever, 1 have sent a bottle and teld them to try it, and if it did not help them, they were not obliged to pay for it, and they were all satisfied. 1 had one case of Chill Fever where it run four days, but the man came to see me on tho sixth day well satisfied.

One young lady in the family of a clergyman here has been taking an “ AGUE BALSAM” for some months without any per manent benefit—a few days since she got a bottle of the Cure and has not had a chill since. A young man also used the same Balsam some time without relief until lie got a bottle of your Cure. So far it works like a charm. Y ours truly, Rev. A. C. DUBOIS.

If any body desires further evidences, they will find it in every bottle of the CURE, which is being intro duced as rapidly as possible in * o every town and village in the United States, Canadas, Ac. The eminent chem ist. Dr. J. R.Chilton, of New York, certifies to its per fect innocence. It is therefore optional with all to have the Fever and Ague or not, just as they please. I can also say that a great many of my largest custo mers are those who a year ago were reluctant even to take the Cure on commission. They thought its great chums anil pretensions could not be realised. Now they endorse them all, and it will lie noticed that the letters of which 1 publish su h immense quantities are always new and lute dates—altogether they would more than fill any newspaper, and prove the fact of a greater suc cess and sale than ever attended any other Ague Remedy. Tile Crowning Grlory of the Cure is Its HARMLESS CHARACTER, which allows its free use as a |wcventive. Thus protected by using II bottle or two (hiring the warm and sickly sea sons, not a man woman or child in the United States would ever have a single attack of Fever and Ague, Bilious or Yellow Fever, or any form of disease arising from the atmospheric poison Malaria, to which the Cure is a perfect antUMe. It is also unequalled for quick and permanent effects as a “Restorative, giving new life and strength to all whose constitutions have been shattered or weakened hy Ague or Bilious diseases, night sweats, languor and de bility or any kind of intemperance or dissipation.
