yarn ot a superior quality, and an increased quantity
over the Hand Mules, and at a far less cost, not ex

dr, CHRISTIE’S GALVANIC RINGS
AND
1 MAGNETIC FLUID.
rjIHIS REMARKABLE INVENTION,
’ -N. 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
ot Galvanism applied without any of the objections
which are inseparable from the general mode now in
use; The 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 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 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 tbund in the proper and judicious application of
Galvanism.
Ihe 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, Ajioplexy, 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 woni by the most delicate female without
the slightest inconvenience. In fact, the sensation is
rather agreeable than otherwise.
Clirlstie’s Magnetic Fluid*
Is used in connection with the Galvanic Rings, and
all their modifications. This composition has been pro
nounced by French chemists to be one of the most ex
traordinary discoveries of modem 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 ‘hus 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 out ward local appli
cation. The Magnetic F»uid 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, 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 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 Ajtoplexy,
Epileptic Fits, and similar complaints,
Christie’s Galvanic Strengthening Pias
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 elfects are 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 are a constant sonree of complaint with
the ordinary plasters in common use,
gjf* 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 Uinon. The only authorized Agency in Augusta,

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 tor 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
t degree than any known remedy, tonic and alterative
powers, and is highly recommended by eminent Phy
r 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 it more
* 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
1 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, especial
’ ly if taken in conjunction with Hydr. 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 pensons
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 efli
-5 cacious in removing entirely every trace ol hereditary
disease from the system, in the tenderest infant ; in
fact, in all cutaneous affections it is invaluable. As

DR. LE ROY’S
VEGETABLE UNIVERSAL
PILLS.
The only known Medicine that at the
same time Purges, Purifies and Strengthens
the System.
DR. LeROY’S PILLS are a new medicine
which has just appeared, and is fast taking the
places of ail others of the same class. These pills are
composed of iljtany ingredients, hut 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 wonderful 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 of 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
wiiich were heretofore considered paradoxical by the
faculty; that is, they are a strengthening purgative
and a purifying tonic ; 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
their purgative effects—so that while they evacuate I
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 which 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
v.ion and apathy,

From the Germantoum ( O.) Gazette 30fA July.
Presentation of a Quilt to Henry Clay.
The splendid quilt made by Mrs. Schults, of
York Pa., now on a visit to this place, to which
we called the attention of our citizens some
weeks since, has been presented by her to
Henry Clay. We are gratified to have the
privilege of publishing the correspondence
had on the occasion of its presentation, which
has been politely furnished us by Mrs. Schults.
The follow ing appropriate and patriotic let
ter directed to Mr. Clay, was written by T. B.
Stevenson, Esq., of Cincinnati:
Cincinnati, July 10,1847.
My Dear Sir:—l am charged with the
agreeable office of forwarding a bed-quilt, cloth
thread and every thing of home production,
and every stitch of it wrought by Mrs. Schults of
Pennsylvania, a venerable lady seventy-six years
ofage, who instructs me to tender it to yon as a
small token of the exalted estimation in which
she and her husband, in common with such an
innumerable host of your intelligent and virtu
ous fellow-citizens, regard your distinguished
public services and your eminent personal mer
its.
The value of the numerous testimonials pre
sented you by your countrymen, is to be estim
ated not merely by their intrinsic utility. They
are far more precious as the spontaneous offer
ings ofthe heart’s homage. They signify an ap
preciation, by just and disinterested minds, of
your honorable career, of public and private
usefulness, more grateful and consoling to a
truly generous and sensitive spirit, than all the
ostentatious insigna of power and station.—
They speak the approbation and gratitude of
indulgent and honest citizens who, having
nothing to gain by flattery, and disdaining adula
tion, may obey the impulses of their hearts and
be just to you and true to themselves, without
hazarding the imputation of unworthy motives
or uncandid sentiments. They tell of a long
life, laboriously and faithfully devoted to the
good and glory of our country, of whose re
now r n your services and name make an in
separable and imperishable part. They testify
that, if the highest honors of the Republic
have not been bestowed in acknowledgement
of such services, you enjoy what is more ap
preciable, the verdict of disinterested minds
that you have deserved them. They assure
you, in short, that your name is already histo
ric, and that Fame will preserve it to the ‘‘latest
syllable of recorded time.” Envy cannot blot
the records of the past, nor injustice pervert
the jugement of the future. For the rest, a
lofty mind is superior to the “slings of outrage
ous fortune.”
“ Par more truejoy, Marcellos, exiled, feels,
Than Caesar with a Senate at his heels.”
Os the many tokens of respect you have re
ceived, I am inclined to consider this, regard
ing the source and character ofit, though per
haps, among the least costly, as one ofthe most
gratifying. It is the work entirely of one
whose age might imply a cessation from all the
thoughts and cares of time, bother pulsations
are strong and quick in the display of justice
and gratitude, towards him who has conferred
lasting benefits upon the country with whose
destiny, her posterity, numerous and respecta
ble, is identified. It is the product of the Nee
dlc—the Needle, that implement and emblem
of industry, the source of all prosperity, of
which, throughout your whole life, you have ,
been the recognized and unrivalled advocate,
protector and champion.
In such view of the spirit that tenders this
humble offering I do not doubt that you will
afford me the satisfaction of announcing to the
venerable lady-donor your hearty acceptance
of it.
Praying you yet many long years of health,
prosperity aud happiness, I am still, as ever,
my dear Sir, faithfully and truly,
Yourfrend and fellow-citizen,
THO. B. STEVENS.
Hon. Henry Clay, Ashland, Ky.
The following is the reply of Mr. Clay :
Ashland, 15th July, 1847.
My Dear Sir: — l received yesterday your
friendly letter of the 10th instant, and at the
same time, the bed quilt, to which it refers,
wrought by the hands of Mrs. Elizabeth Shults,
of Pennsylvania, which she had requested you
to present to me. Considering the beauty and
comfort of this present, the venerable hands
which made it, the purely American materials of
whichit is composed, the friendly motives which
prompted the tender of it, and, I must add, the
flattering manner in which you have perform
ed your friendly agency, the acceptance of no
object could have afforded me more gratifica
tion.
The testimonials of the affectionate regard
aud esteem of my countrymen and country
women, of which I have been so long the hon
ored recipient, and which continue to flow in a
currentwhich neither time nor events obstruct,
fill me with inexpressible pleasure- It is not
so much the intrinsic value of these testimo
nials, which however, is often not inconsidera
ble, —it is the fact that they emanate from the
heart, and touch mine with grateful sensibility,
that gives to them their cherished importance.
I regret that I have not the satisfaction of a
personal acquaintance with Mrs. Shults and her
husband ; but the respected and honored name
which she bears is well known to me. As she
has, on this occasion, made you her organ, I
have to request that you will do me the favor
to be mine also, in presenting her my cordial
thanks and respectful acknowledgements, for
the honor which she has done me, in the com
munication of which Mrs. Clay desires hers
to be included. I request you also to tender
my compliments to Mr. Shults.
I am with great respect, faithfully,
Your friend and obedient servant,
H. CLAY.
