IT has long been a great desideratum in Medical •Science, and lias been the subject of a vas a mount of Chemical experiment, to obtain theme dicinal qua itics of Opium to the exilusicn of il s noxious principles and use'ess comidnations. No article in the whole range of the Pharmacopoeia is perhaps of greater importance to mankind ; and none which lias engaged a greater share of chemi cal attention. Every preparation hitherto made from this drug, whether in the form of Extract, Morphia, Black Drop, Paragoric. or Laudanum, contains in close combination a poison with the an tid te, and hence we find the administration of them attended with a numerous train of evils, among which arc headache, lassitude, tremors, nausea, vomiting, constipation, derangement of the nervous sy stem —and a quality wonderfully predis posing the system t* its habitual use; to obtain therefore the Soothing Opiate and Anti-Spasmodic Anodyne in all its virtues, separate from the dele terious principles of the drug, has for a series of years engaged the profound attention of the author ; it presented itself to his mind as a subject of great magnitude; the acquisition to the medical faculty of so important a rcmc.lial agent, and the incalcu lable amount of human misery that would be alle viated by the discovery, have been to him a sure guarantee that lie would reap a rich reward for his | labors, at least in self-gratulation. Having satis factorily tested the Elixer in several hundreds of instances, lie has now the happiness of say ing to the public that bis labors have been crowned with triumphant success. J. HAMILTON,M.

In every instance that has come to the knowledge of the proprietors, it has proved itself to be what it is recommended —a pleasant, safe, and efficacious remedy for all the sympathetic affections attendant on Pregnancy, . and all those periodical disorders to which both ; married and unmarried females are liable. Delicacy forbids giving the details of its merits in a news paper advertisement, but it may be stated that it lias been in use under various names —(The Philo token, Mother's Relief, SfC..) for some ten years past, and wherever introduced, the demand for it, (without the aid of “ putting,”) has been constant ly on the increase. This lad in evidence of its 1 real virtues, together with the belief that hundreds of females arc sull'ciing from want of the know ledge of a remedy adapted to their cases, induce: [ the proprietors respectfully to call the altentior of sulicreis to their pamphlets, which accompany each battle, and which may be Lad gratis of anj , ‘ of their* agents.
