DR. CHRISTIE’S GALVANIC RINGS
AND
MAGNETIC FLUID.
This remarkable invention,
which has received the almost universal appro
bation of the medical protession 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 of the objections
which are inseparable from the general mode now in
use; flic strong doses, and at regular intervals in
which Galvanism is applied by the machines, has
been pronounced, after a fair and impartial trial, to be
decidedly injurious, and it 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 stale 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.
Ihe 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 nervous or 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 system—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,
Pits, 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 Kings 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.
Christie’s Magnetic Fluid.
Is used in connection with the Galvanic Kings, and
all their modifications. This composition has 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 u 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.
Tlie Galvanic Belts, Bracelets, Bauds,
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 health. 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
cases of Bronchitis or Affections of the Throat gene
erally; also in cases of Nervous Deafness; and with
almost uniform success as a preventive for Aj*oplexy,
Epileptic Fits, and similar complaints.
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
ages 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 area constant source of complaint with
the ordinary plasters in common use.
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 Un ; on. The only authorized Agency in Augusta,
Ga., is at the store of

EPPING’S
COMPOUND FLUID EXTRACT OF
SARSAPARILLA.
AND QUEEN’S DELIGHT, &C.
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 Queen’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 eminent Phy
sicians. It is prepared in consequence of the recom
mendations given by Dr. H. R. Frost, Professor of
Materia Medica 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 itmore
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. entertains 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 Sarsaparif'a
and Queen’s Delight, if duly persevered in, especial
ly if taken in conjunction with Hydr. of Potash.
It is highly recommended for all diseases of the i
skin, chronic as 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 infant; in
|3atcnt ilUMcines.
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 wonted purity, gives tone to the stomacn 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 relief be found after taking one bottle, it
will be necessary to use the Hydriodated 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
cribed and used by a number of Physicians and Plan
ers of Charleston and neighborhood, with great sue
cess, viz: Dr. H. R. Frost; Dr. W. G. Ramsay;
Dr. Thou. Y. Simons; Dr. C. Pritchard; Mr. S.
Legare; Lieut. Wilson, U. S. R. S., all of Charles
ton; Dr. James Stoney, Beaufort, &c.

DR. LE ROY’S
V E(i E T ABLE UNIVERSAL
PILLS.
The only known Medicine that at the
same time Purges, Purifies and Strengthens
m the System.
DR. LeROY’S PILLS are a new' medicine
which has just appeared, and is fast taking the
places of all others of the same class. These pills are
composed of many ingredients, but the two principal
are Sarsaparilla and Wild Cherry, so united as to act
together; the one, through its admixture with other
substances, purifying and purging, while the other is
strengthening the system. Thus these pills are at the
same time tonic and opening; a desideratum long and
eagerly sought for by medical men but never before
discovered. In other words, they do the work of two
medicines, and do it much better than any two we
know of, for they remove nothing from the system but
the impurities, so that while they purge they strength
en; and hence they cause no debilitation, and are fol
lowed by no reaction.
Dr. Leßoy s Pills have a wonderlul influence on
the blood; they not only purify, without weakening
it, but they remove all noxious particles from the
chyle before it is converted into fluid, and thus make
impure blood an utter impossibility. As there is no
debilitation, so there is no nausea or sickness attend
ing the operations ol this most excellent of medicines,
which never strains or tortures the digestive functions
but causes them to ’work in a perfectly natural man
ner, and hence persons taking them do not become
pale and emaciated, but the contrary, for while it is
the property of the Sarsaparilla, united as it is with
other ingredients, to remove all that is foreign and
impure, it is equally the property of the Wild Cherry
to retain all that is natural and sound ; and hence a
robust state of health is the certain result of their
united operations.
Certificate from Sir James Clark, the eminent
English Physician.
‘Dr. Le Roy’s Vegetable Universal Pills,’ says the
celebrated Sir James Clark, promises fair to, in a great
measure, exclude the necessity of the lancet, for they
prevent too much fullness of blood, by forcing from
the chyle all impure matter, which would otherwise
be converted into fluid, and taint all the rest; and the
blood which is formed under their influence must,
from the nature of their principal component parts, be
pure and healthy. In my private practice I have ex
cluded nearly every other cathartic in their favor;
and the more I use them, the more my confidence in
their virtues is confirmed. They unite extremes
which were heretofore considered paradoxical by the
faculty ; that is, they are a strengthening purgative
and a purifying tome ; hence they may at all times
be administered without hazard, no matter how weak
or debilitated the patient may be —insomuch as their
conservative properties are precisely in the ratio of j
their purgative effects—so that while they evacuate
the bowels in the most thorough manner, they also
trengthen and tone them.
From the Morning Chronicle, Dec. 11, 1845.
One might think that people had discovered the
Elixir of life and were to die no more from the hub
bub they are making about the new medicine—Dr.
Le Roy’s Pills—the virtues of w'hich all men are ex
tolling to their neighbors. We have taken pains to as
certain the truth of the matter and are able to say up
on sound authority that Dr. Leroy’s Vegetable Univer
sal Pills are deserving of all that can be said in their
favor and combine opposite and admirable qualities
never before united in a medicine ; those of purgatives
and tonics. The pills of Dr. Leroy have caused al
most as great a commotion among the public as the
writings of Boz ; and will probably render their dis
coverer equally immortal.
From the Medical Times, Sept. 18, 1845.
Opposed as we are to modern patent medicines we
cannot be silent to the virtues of Dr. Le Roy’s much
lauded discovery. His pills are indeed a purgative
which may be taken without a risk or the advice of a
physician ; for they produce evacuation without weak
ness, and cause energy in the digestive functions with
out straining them and thus paving the way for reac
tion and apathy.

Butternuts, Sept. 4th, 1843. —OurSelf-Operating
Mules ope-ate to our entire satisfaction, producing
yarn of a superior quality, and an increased quantity
over the Hand Mules, and at a far less cost, not ex
ceeding live cents per hundred. It is now about two
years since they were put in operation, and 1 do not
know that they have ever been detained for half an
hour for repairs. la haste, yours truly, &c.,
\. G. Washbon, Agent,
Manayunk,Jan. ibth, 1845.—Mr. Richard Strih
ting, of the Matteawan Company, has put in opera
tion in my establishment eight of Smith’s Self-Acting
Mules, seven of 432 spindles, undone 0f312 spindles".
They perform to the greatest satisfaction, and the
Mule itself is considered by all practical men ns the
best of the kind in the country, Joseph Ripka.
Norristown , Pa., Jan. 10, 1845. — Mr Stribling,
rom the Matteawan Company, New York, has just
finished putting in operation for me ten of Smith’s
Self-Acting Mules, for spinning twist and filling,
which operate to our entire satisfaction.
Samuel Jamison.
Great Falls Milk, April 25, 1845 —W M . B
Leonard, Esq : Dear Sir—This Company have had
in operation of Self-Acting Mules—Sharp’s, Roberts &
Co.’s, Mason’s, and Smith’s. The two former for
more than two years, and the latter for upward of one
year last past. I have kept an accurate account of
the product, waste and cost of operating each descrip
tion of Mule, and the result is decidedly in favor of
Smith’s.
I have no hesitation in saying the Smith Mule will
turn off" more work per spindle than any other
now i n use; that it requires less trouble to keep it in
order, and may be kept in repair at less expense.
Yours, respectfully, J. A. Burleigh,
Agent Great Falls Manufacturing Co.

I have found it a most Valuable medicine, and only
regret that I have not a supply of it. Wherever my

found relief. We have suffered and are suffering
much from Dysentery, occasioned by the wretched
water we have to drink, hut your Cordial is restoring
all to their wonted health and vigor. With my sin
cere thanks for your kindness, and best wishes for yotr
success, I am your ob’t serv’t. Isaac Holmes,

pleased. If certificates are of any use to you, I can
get any number for you, Very respectfully,
D. Morris.

There Must be Something Wrong.
When Earth produces, free and fair,
The golden waving corn,
When fragrant fruits perfume ’.he air,
And fleecy flocks are shorn;
While thousands move with aching head,
And sing this ceaseless song—
“ We starve, we die, oh, give us bread ?”
There must be something wrong.
W hen W ealth is wrought as seasons roll
From off the fruitlul soil;
When Luxury from pole to pole
Reaps fruit of human toil ;
When from a thousand, one alone
In plenty rolls along—
The others only gnaw the bone —
There must be something wrong.
And when Production never ends,
The Earth is yielding ever;
A copious harvest oft begins,
But distribution —never !
When toiling millions work to fill
The wealthy coffers strong ;
When hands are crushed that work ami till,
There must be something wrong.
When poor men’s tables waste away,
To barreness and drought;
There must be something in the way
That’s worth the finding out:
With surfeit one great table bends.
While numbers move along
Whilst scarce a crust their board exten Is,
There must be something wrong.
Then let the Law give equal right,
To Wealthy and to Poor;
Let Freedom crush the arm of Might,
We ask for nothing more :
• Until this system is begun,
The burden of our song
Must, andean be, only one—
There must be something wrong.
Peruvian Marriages.
The great nobles of Peru were allowed,
like their sovereign, a plurality of wives. The
people generally, whether by law or by neces
sity stronger than law, were more happily lim
ited to one. Marriage was conducted in a
manner that gave it quite as original a charac
ter as belonged to the other institutions of the
country. On an appointed day of the year,
all those of a marriageable age —which, having
reference to the ability to take charge of a family,
in the males was fixed at not less than twenty
four years, and in the women at eighteen or
twenty—were called together in the great
squares of their respective towns and villages,
throughout the empire. The Inca presided in
person over the assembly of his own kindred,
and takingthe hands of the different couples
who were to be united, he placed them within
each other, declaring the parties man and wife.
The same was done by the curacas towards
all persons of their own or inferior degree in
their several districts. This was the simple
form of marriage in Peru. No one was al
lowed to select a wife beyond the community
to which he belonged, which generally com
prehended all his own kindred ; nor was any
but the sovereign authorized to dispense with
the law of nature—or at least, the usual law of
nations—so far as to marry his own sister. No
marriage was esteemed valid without the con
sent ol the parents; and the preference of the
parties,it is said, was also to be consulted;
though, considering the barriers imposed by
the prescribed age of the candidates, this must
have been within rather narrow and whimsical
limits. A dwelling was got ready for the new
married pair at the charge of the district, and
the prescribed portion of land assigned for their
maintenance. The law of Peru provided for
the future, as well as for the present; it left noth
ing to chance. The simple ceremony of mar
riage was followed by general festivities among
the friends of the parties, which lasted several
days ; and as every wedding took place on the
same day, and .is there were few families who
had not some one of their members or their kin
dred personally interested, there was one uni
versal bridal jubilee throughout the empire.—
Prescott.
The W oodpecker.—ln more than fifty or
chards, which I have myself carefully examined,
those trees which were marked by the wood
pecker (for some trees they never touch, per
haps because not penetrated by insects) were
uniformly the most thriving, and seemingly
the most productive ; many of these were up
wards of 60 years old, their trunks completely
covered with holes, while the branches were
broad, luxuriant, and covered with fruit. Os
decayed trees more than three-fourths were
untouched by the woodpecker. Several intel
ligent farmers, with whom I have conversed,
candidly acknowedge the truth of these obser
vations, and with justice look upon these birds
as beneficial; but the most common opinion is,
that they bore the trees to suck the sap and so
destroy its vegetation; though pine and other re
sinous trees, on thejuices of which it is not pre
tended they feed, are often found equally per
forated. Were the sap of the tree their object,
the saccharine juice of the birch, the sugar ma
ple, and several others, would be much more
inviting, because more sweet and nourishing
than that of either the pear or apple tree; but I
have not observed one mark on the former,
for ten thousand that may be seen on the latter.
Besides, the early part of spring is the season
when the sap flows most abundantly; whereas,
it is only during the months of September, Oc
tober, and November, that woodpeckers are
seen soindefatigably engagedinorchards, prob
ing every crack and crevice, boring through
the bark, and what is worth remarking, princi
pally on the south and southwest sides of the
tree, for the eggs and larvae deposited there
by the countless swarms of summer insects. —
These, ifsuffered to remain, would prey upon
the very vitals, if I may so express it, of the
tree, and in the succeeding summer give birth
to myriads more of their race, equally de
structive.
Here, then, is a whole species, I may say ge
nus of birds, which Providence seems to have
formed for the protection of our fruit and fo
rest trees from the ravages of vermin, which
every day destroy millions of those noxious in
sects that would otherwise blast the hopes of
the husbandman, and which even promote the
fertility of the trees; and in return, are pro
scribed by those who ought to have been their
protectors, and incitements aud rewards held
out for their destruction? Let us examine bet
ter into the operations of nature, very many of
our mistaken opinions and groundless preju
dices will be abandonedfor more just, enlarged
and humane modes ol thinking.— fi'ilson’s Or
