McAlister s all healing OINTMENT. ABOUT the year ISI7, I was living in the west ern part of this State, pursuing the occupation of a farmer. One day while chopping in the woods I chopped my foot nearly off. I was in con sequence laid up for some weeks. During this misfortune, I employ ed myself in perusing the fragment leaves ot an old volume, printed in England some hundreds of years ago. Among these scattered leaves I read oi an herb showing properties and qualities never before found in any plant that was ever discovered. This one herb, under the force of the Retort ami Crucible, developed more than ten distinct properties. This fact struck my mind so forcibly that it was im jwssible to get rid of it. It occupied my thoughts by day and by night. Something seemed to tell me that Providence, whose special care is extended ‘towards all his creatures, had never concentrated into one small herb so many medical qualities, as various and as com plicated though as perfectly identical as the human blood , without a wise and good purpose. Here was to he found the acids, the alkalis, the oils, the water, the air, the salts, the soda, &c., all combined, concen trated and chemically united into ONE single element of power, forming a substance more allied and in affi nity to the human blood than was ever before discov vered in the works of nature. I was satisfied in my own mind that a medicine formed from this herb would possess more virtue and poxcer than any ever yet made. Everything seemed to point my mind to one object, viz : the preparation of this herb into a medicine. I then determined to return to the city of New York. I did so, and immediately inquired for this herb. It was not to be found. 1 then sent to Europe, and there found it under another name. Having prepared an Ointment from this article to my satisfaction, I gave it away to all who would use it. Hundreds, 1 might say thousands, took it into their families, used it, some for one thing and some for ano ther, and all, from the very first to the lery last, pro nounced it of unrivalled excellence and power. The first case, however, that came under my obser vation, was a man who had lost the use of his arm for some years. The Ointment restored his arm com pletely in a few days. This surprised me as much as it did the patient. After him there came a man with sore eyes, produced by gunpowder —a very bad rase indeed. One box only sufficed to make a perfect cure. And 1 would here remark that hundreds have been cured of sore eyes who never found any relief but in this Ointment. There next came a woman who was suffering ex cruciating pain from the ague in the face. Her physi c ; an, (thinking it the tooth-ache,) had extracted seven 0 f her teeth. The application of the All-Healing Ql n tment was attended with immediate cessation of p.jjjj About the same lime a lady made application with it f° r head-ache of long standing, and a falling of the hair The Ointment cured her head-ache, and restored I her hair. Si, ice this, I have known the Oint ment to c tire cases often, twenty, and one of forty years stana 'iff?. I hesitate not to say that it is almost an infallible remedy for this complaint. About this t 6me there were two cases, one of con sumption, am.* the other of scrofula, which had baf fled the skill of ' every physician who prescribed. It was wonderful to- witness the effect of the Ointment on these person? No one would believe it unless they had personally il - But it did the work pro perly. There was no hai'. f wa X business, for they re covered their health in a few mon, ‘ ls » To name all the cases would o'“ te dious. suppose it was tried for almost every comp. alllt w llc 1 ai,? so common in this latitude. Rheumatism, Fevers, Quinsy, SoC yiioat. Cutaneous Eruptions, Diseases of the ani Nervous Complaints, were treated with it wi *“ un " heard of success. But in Chest Diseases, such Asthma, Pain and (}ppression, I believe there is n. 0 better remedy. Also, the common diseases, suchjas Ulcer Sores, Scald Head, Humors of the Skin, Jn flamations, Piles, Sore Eyes, Sprains, Bruises and Bums, it seemed to be a perfect antidote. Peo ple would come intothe store smiling, wishing to know if 1 was really the Seventh Son, or whether the Oint ment I gave them was indeed all-healing in its nature. For, said they, not one single application has failed to cure. Diver Complaint, particularly, was treated with great and universal success. Notwithstanding all, I have been careful not to re commend it, except in cases I knew it would do good. And because I held hack from making it public, un friends censured me. But I was never willing to lend myself to any-thing of this character without first, test ing its merits. This I endeavored to do on every- oc casion, and when I acted as one of the sick committee in the’Lodge of I. O. of O. P., I then tested it upon brothers in the most critical conditions, and had abun dant opportunity of proving its worth. In this way, and various other ways, it found ac cess among the people, until so many- were using it that it was demanded from the very necessity ol the ease. JAMES McALISTER, 150 Fulton-st., N- \ .

CHRISTIE’S GALVANIC RINGS AND . MAGNETIC FLUID. qpHIS REMARKABLE INVENTION, JL which has received the almost universal appro bation of the medical profession of Great Britain, com prises an entirely- new application of Galvanism, as a remedial agent, by means of which the ordinary- Gal vanic Batteries, Electric and Magnetic machines, &c., are entirely dispensed with, and the mysterious power of Galvanism applied without any ot the objections which are inseparable from the general mode now use; The strong doses, and at regular intervals in which Galvanism is applied by- the machines, has been pronounced, after a lair and impartial trial, to ho decidedly injurious, audit was to remedy this radi cal defect, that this new application was projected, which, after unceasing toil and perseverance, has been brought to its present state of perfection. The Gal vanic Rings answer all the purposes of the most ex pensive machines, and in many- other respects are more safe and certain in accomplishing the desired effects. The Galvanic Rings used in connection with the Magnetic Fluid, are confidently recommended in all disorders which arise from an enfeebled or un healthy state of the xxervousor vital system, and these complaints are among the most painful and universal to which we are subject. They arise, without ex ception, from one simple cause—a derangement of the nervous sy-stem —and it was in these cases that other “ remedies” having so often failed, a new agent was greatly needed, which it is confidently- believed, has been found in the proper and judicious application of Galvanism. The Galvanic Rings have been used with entire success in all cases of rheumatism, acute or chronic, applying to the head, face or limbs : Gout, Tic-Dolo reux, Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous or Sick Headache, Indigestion, Paralyses, Palsy-, Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart, Apoplexy, Stiff ness of Joints, Spinal Complaints, Lumbago, Neu ralgia, Nervous Tremors, Dizziness of the Head, Pains in the Chest and Side, General Debility, De ficiency of Nervous and Physical Energy-, and all Ner vous Disorders. In cases of confirmed Dyspepsia, which is simply a Nervous Derangement of the diges tive organs, they have been found equally successful. Their extraordinary effects upon the system must be witnessed to be believed, and as a certain preservative for the preceding complaints they are equally- recom mended. The Rings are of different prices, being made of all sizes, and of various ornamental patterns, and can be worn by- the most delicate female without the slightest inconvenience. In fact, the sensation is rather agreeable than otherwise. Tlie Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bands, Garters, Necklaces, &c. In some cases of a very- severe character and of long standing, the power as applied by the Galvanic Rings is not sufficient to arrest the progress of disease and ultimately to restore heahh. The improved modifica tion in the Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, &c., entirely remedies this objection ; any- degree of power that is required can readily be obtained, and no complaint which the mysterious agent of Galvanism can affect, will fail to be permanently relieved. These articles are adapted to the waist, arms, wrists, limbs, ancles, or any part of the body, with perfect convenience. The Galvanic necklaces are used with great benefit in i cases of Bronchitis or Affections of the Throat gen erally; also in cases of Nervous Deafness; and with almost uniform success as a preventive for Apoplexy, Epileptic Fits, and similar complaints. Christie’s Magnetic Fluid, Is used in connection with the Galvanic Rings, and all their modifications. This composition lias been pro nounced by French chemists to be one of the most ex traordinary discoveries of modern science. It is be lieved to possess a remarkable power of rendering the nerves sensitive to galvanic action, by these means causing a circulation of the influence at the seat of dis ease, and thus giving rapid and permanent relief. No other composition in chemistry is known to produce the same effect, or to impart a similar property to the nervous system by means of an outward local appli cation. The Magnetic Fluid contains nothing capable of the slightest injury, its application is agreeable, and it is as harmless in its action as it is beneficial in its result. Full explanations and directions accompany it. The combined inventions are in every way per fectly harmless; they are at prices within the reach of all, and the discoverer only requests a fair trial, as a test of their surprising efficacy and permanent benefit. Christie’s Galvanic Strengthening Plas ters. These articles form another valuable application of the mysterious influence of Galvanism. They are an important adjunct to the genuine Galvanic Rings, and their modifications, acting upon the same principle, but having the advantage of more local application. They are confidently recommended as a valuable addition in the speedy cure of Rheumatism, acute or chronic; in all nervous complaints, and as a positive remedy in case of Pain and Weakness in the Chest or Back, Pain in the Side, in Asthmatic Affections, and in Weakness or Oppressions of the Pulmonary Organs. In Spinal Complaints their effects arc of the most decided cha racter, and they have often been used with complete success. They are also of the greatest advantage in Pains and Weakness of the Breast, and are highly-re commended for many of those complaints to which fe males are especially "liable. As an effectual means for ' strengthening the system when debilitated with dis ease or other causes; as a certain aid in Constitution al Weakness, as a preventive for colds and in all affec tions of the Chest generally, the Galvanic Strengthen ing Plaster will be found of great and permanent ad vantage. In a few words, it embraces all the advan tages of the best tonic preparation, with the important : addition of the Galvanic influence, which is neither impaired or exhausted, while the action continues. These articles will be found entirely free from those ob jections which are a constant source of complaint with the ordinary plasters in common use. srV The great celebrity- and success of these ar ticles has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci pled persons. To provide against imposition, Dr. Christie has but one authorized agent in each city of the Union. The only authorized Agency in Augusta, Ga.. is at the store of HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO., Druggists, &c., «fcc. All articles of the kind, sold elsewhere, are worth less counterfeits. 5 29 PHILOTOKEN or FEMALE’S FRIEND.

FOR purifying the blood, and removing all diseases asising from the impurity of the same, and is especially recommended for the cure of Rheu matism, Scrofula, Erysipelas, Ulcerations of the Throat and legs, Pains and Swellings of the Bones, Tetters, Pimples in the Face, Old Sores, and all Cutaneous Eruptions, Neuralgic Affections, Mercurial Diseases, and for assisting the operation and preventing fatal consequences of Mercurials in Syphilis, This preparation (by adding the iiueen’s Delight, &c., to the Sarsaparilla,) combines in a more perfect degree than any known remedy, tonic and alterative powers, and is highly recommended by foment Phy sicians. It is prepared in consequence of the recom mendations given by Dr, H, R. Frost, Professor of Materia Meclica in the Medical College of Charleston, S. C., in his work on Materia Medica, only concen trated by a process of the subscriber’s to render itmorc convenient for administration, and with the exception of the addition of mercury which may at all times be added when necessary. To show the high estimation which Dr. F. ente.rtains of the combination of these articles, it is only necessary to refer to the above men tioned work. There are few cases of chronic and painful Rheuma tism that will not yield to the influence of SarsapariTa and Queen’s Delight, if duly persevered in, cspeciat ly if taken in conjunction with Hyclr. of Potash. It is highly recommended for all diseases of the skin, chronic as well as recent. One bottle will, in most instances, effectually remove all pimples, pes tules, or blotches on the face, to which young persons in this climate are so much subject, arising either from impurity of the blood or debility. It is the best remedy known for scrofulous affections, sores and breakings out in young children, and is safe and effi cacious in removing entirely every trace of hereditary disease from the system, in the tenderest iufant; in fact, in all cutaneous affections it is invaluable. Asa general purifier of the blood, and an eradicator of all obstinate diseases, this preparation will undoubtedly take the precedence of all other remedies. It gently operates upon and regulates the bowels, restores to the blood its w onted purity, gives tone to the stomach and promotes digestion. it will effectually relieve Erysipelas even in its worst stages, and all persons suffering from this dis tressing complaint are advised to use it, first so, but if no marked reliefbe found after taking one bottle, it will be necessary to use the Hydriodatod Potash with it. Not wishing to publish certificates, as is done in the case of all quack medicines of the day, to effect their sale and so force them upon the public, the subscriber begs leave to state that this preparation has been pre scribed and used by a number of Physicians and Plan ters of Charleston and neighborhood, with great suc cess, viz: Dr. H. R. Frost; Dr. W. G. Ramsay; Dr. Thos. Y. Simons; Dr, C. Pritchard; Mr. S. Legare; Lieut. Wilson, U. S. R. S., all of Charles ton; Dr. James Stoney, Beaufort, &c. For the composition of this Extract, and the properties of the Queen’s Delight, Physicians are re ferred to the sth and 6th No., Vol. 1, of the Southern Journal of Medicine and Pharmacy. HAVILAND, HARRAL & ALLEN, Charleston, and HAVILAND, RISLEY & CO., Augusta, have been appointed Agents for the sale of the above. Prepared by J, PETER M.

The Washington Union is preparing for an assault upon Gen. Taylor, should our army un fortunately meet with a disaster, as it did before the battles oftheSthand 9th of May were fought, by hinting in advance, that his arrangements are defective. It says :—“ We cannot suppose it possible that Gen. Taylor would have ad vanced to Saltillo and scattered his troops so far from each other—with Gen. Worth at Sal tillo, with Gen. Wool at Parras, with Gen. Butler at Monterey, and the forces under him self and Gen. Patterson, so as to incur any se rious danger from a concentrated attack by Santa Anna upon any of his divisions.” But let General Taylor achieve another splendid victory—and then the Union will extol the Ad ministration for the wisdom of its plans, and the efficiency of its arrangements, precisely as he did after the battles of Palo Alto and liesaca de la Palma. If disaster and defeat ensue, Gen. Taylor will have to bear the brunt—if victory, then the Administration will appropriate to it self the glory of the achievement! —Richmond Whig.
