To nliow that I am not wholly alone in the opinion I advance, I quote from the coh hraf. il Prof. T. Watson, of King's College, I.ondon, whose work on the “ Princi ples and Practice of Physic” Is a text hook in many of our medical colleges, and consequently standard autlu nily.

The great variety ol symptoms and ! i formr t disease is owing principally to difference in ago, sex, constitution and hqhits of the snffhrom; hut us the ! cause is the same, they will all equally yield to a remedy i that is competent to overcome or remove that cause. By the laws of Nature, every principle has its opposite j and fur every disease, or cause of disease, there is a re agent, or in other words a specific remedy. All .Malaria, whether arising from Marshes, Stagnant water, decompo sition of animal and vegetable matter, or even newly | cleared lands, is the same ill character aud effect; is a poi son floating in the atmosphere, causing disease to all who breathe it. Iu accordance with those unalterable laws ; governing the unerring affinity subsisting between op -1 posites, there is in tiie preparation before us. offered to j Uie public, The Natural Antidote lo Malaria, I which neutialiMM the poison whenever it conn s in con tact w ith it, even in the open air, and when taken intor | nully ci.iiflifetcly purifies the system affected bv it ol its baneful influence, and thus restores and preserves health. The remedy is believed to be entirely new, and un known to any but,tin) proprietor, who, distinctly claims (lie following extraordinary results from its use: it will instantly cheek tin: ague iu persons who have suffered lor any length of time, from one day to twenty yeurs, and by continuing it: use, according to the direc tions, a radical cure will he effected; tiie patient contin uing free from Urn complaint for ever; unless subsequent exposure to malaria should make fl s use again necessary. In its operation upon tiie poison iu the system, it will immediately relieve ull the distressing symptom* of bil ious or ague diseases, and when the disease je cured, it w ill entirely prevent the accession of • Gsntral Debility and Night Sweats, which so often follow the administration of other inede cim s. The patient at cnee begins to rei ver appetite and strength, and continues to improve until restored to pel'lect! heal til. By its use Fever and Ague may he twnished from every family ami class in tiie community; formers, me chanics, and all laboring people maybe using this arti cle as a Preventive, And pursue their respective avocations iu perfect safety from ague or bilious attacks dining tho sickly season, which is often to them the most valuable pact <f the year. ince tho introduction of tho CURE in every part of the United States, its success has been so complete and unvarying as to have fully proved these assertions in favor of its extraordinary merit. AYln n these declarations were made, at the date of its iutroduct.on, they seemed incredible to many, even of tho most candid minds, because all the resources of science had been taxed in vain to subdue ague or iriliohs diseases; ami what was still worse for ague sufferers, all their remedies or treatment, whether scientific <>r empirical, have been limited to poisonous or desti tn ivu drugs, such as Arsenic. Quinine, Mercery. Fallcine, &c. The effects of these are sometimes worse than the disease they subdue, and when such remedies fail, or give only temporary relief, their poisonous effects are suneradded to the poor sufferer's ftrst complaint. On this account ague sufferers should be particularly careful about using any sec ret Fever and Ague remedies, notwithstanding the makers of them uniformly assert they may he taken with perfect safety, even when it is notoriously well known that their potency depends solely upon destructive poisons. Now, as a proof that the Remedy is not only valuable on account of its power to cure diseases, hut that it is also Worthy of Public Coniidcnee, Because of its Singular and Entire Ilarmlessiiess, The following certificate from one of the most celebrated chemists in the United States lias been obtained, and a copy of it is attached to evety bottle: New York, June 11, 11555. “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 hot found a particle of either in it, nor have I found any substance in its composition that would prove inju rious to the constitution. “JAMES R. CHILTON, M. I)., Chemist.” It ii a stubborn fact, therefore, that this Remedy is destined not only to relieve the human family from malarious diseases, but to do an equally good work by preventing tiie taking of other medicines which do harm. The entire absence of any baneful ingredient makes this Remedy not more valuable as a Cure, than it is as a preventive. No class of disease is so easily managed as the one under consideration, if the medicine be taken in advance. This is owing to the diseases being produced by one and the same cause, aud therefore all, both residents ami travelers, should protect themselves by the timely use of this preventive, and not wait for the poison already lurking in their veins, to develop itselt iu a violent attack. Take (lie Cure as a preventive, and so destroy the poison before it does harm. Full direelions and advice as to diet and habits of life prepared by a distinguished Physician long resident in a Bill us climate now accompany each bottle.

Remember that where lin is necessary, or there is custivencss, it iitsi lii taken or the operation of tiie antidote will be seiiou ly ob structed. Only Caution.—ln certain specified cases, pour j the contents of one or more hollies of the Cure into shallow vessels, {dining plates,, aud place them in sleeping rooms; for tiie vapor rising from the medicine, and also the air waited across, or circulated over the dregs of it, after the liquid is evaporated, will counteract aud estroy, to a di g tu commensurate with its expo sure. tiie miasmata or poison contained in then; :: fluent. This mode of exhibiting the Cure should likewise lie resorted to when very young infants are exposul to malarious situations. The bottles in which tills medicine is put up have the words, “Rhodes’ Fever and Agce Cure” blown in the glass, ami on the outside wrapper is the name of the medicine, (the Copyright of which is secured) aud the signature of tho proprietor. These precautions are taken to'prevent counterfeits and imitations. The reliance for its success is entirely upon’ its actual MERITS, wherever introduced and used. These will he considered sufficient. Prepared and sold liy the proprietor, JAMES'A. RHODES', Providence | For sale in Columbus by KIVI.IN, TIIOMA- CO., February Jo, 185 u. ly Druggists.
