FOR THF/ removal and permanent CURE OF A LL DISEASES ARISING FROM AN IMPURE STATE OP THE BLOOD OR HABIT OF THE SYSTEM, viz : SCROFULA or King’s Evil, Rheumatism, Ob stinate Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples or Pus tules on the Pace, Blotches, Biles, Chronic Sore Eyes, Ring Worm or Tetter, Scald Head. Enlargement and Puin of the Bones and Joints, Stubborn Ulcers, Sy philitic Symptoms, Sciatica or Lumbago, and Dis eases arising from an injudicious use of Mercury, Ascites or Dropsy, Exposure or Imprudence in Life. Also, Chronic Constitutional Disorders. In this preparation are strongly concentrated all the Medicinal properties of Sarsaparilla, combined with the most effectual aids, the mcst salutary productions, the most potent simples of the vegetable kingdom ; and it has been so fully tested, not only by patients themselves, but also by Physicians, that it has re ceived their unqualified recommendations and the ap probation of the public j and has established on its own merits a reputation for salue and efficacy for su perior to the various compounds bearing the name of Sarsaparilla. Diseases have been cured, such as are not furnished in the records of time past ; and what it has already done for the thousands who have used it, it is capable of doing for the millions still suffering and struggling with disease. It purifies, cleanses and strengthens the fountain springs of life, and infuses new vigor throughout the whole animal frame. The diseases for which this article is recommended are those to which it is known from personal experi ence to be adapted ; and those apparently removed beyond the sphere of its action have yielded to its in fluence. The catalogue of complaints might be great ly extended to which the Sarsaparilla is adapted, but experience proves its value, and each succeeding day is adding new trophies to its fame. ANOTHER CURE OF SCROFULA, The following striking, and as will be seen, per manent cure of an inveterate case of Scrofula, com mends itself to all similarly afflicted : Southport, Conn., January 1, 1848 — Messrs. Sands: Gentlemen-Sympathy for the afflicted in duces me to inform you of the remarkable cure ctlcct ed by your Sarsaparilla in the case of my wife. She was severely afflicted with the Scrofula on different parts of tire body ; the glands of the neck were great ly enlarged and her limbs much swollen. After suf fering over a year and finding no relief from the rem edies used, the disease attacked one leg, and below the knee suppurated. Her physician advised itshould be laid open, which was done, but without any per manent benefit. In this situation we heard 01, and was induced to try Sands’ Sarsaparilla. The first bottle produced a decided and favorable effect, re lieving her more than any prescription she had ever taken, and before she had used six bottles, to the as tonishment and delight of her friends, she found her health quite restored. It is now over a year since the cure was effected, and her health remains good, show ing the disease was thoroughly eradicated from the system. Our neighbors are all knowing to these facts, and think very highly of Sands’ Sarsaparilla. Yours, wi'h respect, JULIUS PIKE. BRONCHITIS CURED. Nantucket, Mass., Nov. 11, 1544. — Messrs. Sands— Gentlemen : 1 wish to make public, for the good of those afflicted with Bronchitis, the healing properties of your Sarsaparilla. My wife suffered for twenty months in such a manner as is not easily de scribed ; at times she was not able to speak above a whisper, and when exposed to tire cold air, it occa sioned something like spasms in the throat, the effect of which was felt in the ears and eyes, causing tears to flow. The complaint was attended with a dry cough, produced by the constant irritation and inflam mation of the throat. By the use of your Sarsapa rilla she was perfectly cured, it being now more than three months since she felt any symptoms of the dis ease. Yours, GEORGE C. HOEG. Extract from a letter received from Mr. N. W. Har ris, a gentleman well known in Louisa county, Va.; Gentlemen —I have cured a Negro boy of mine with your Sarsaparilla, who was attacked with Scro fula, and of a scrofulous family. “ Yours, truly, N. W. HARRIS. “ Fredericks Hall , Va., July 17, 1848. ” FEVER SORES. The following certificate received by our Agent shows its value in cases of Fever Sores: Chicago, 111., Sept. 12, 1846. — Messrs. Stebbins <V Reed —Gents ; In May, 1845, 1 obtained at your store a bottle of Sarsaparilla, and was then confined to my bed without sleep for a week, occasioned by a violent pain, from a regular fever sore, of long stand ing, on my right leg. My physician advised me to have the limb amputated, saying it was the only means likely to preserve my life. After using half of the bottle the pain began to subside, and by the time I had used nearly three bottles, I was able to transact my regular business; and, before I had finished the fourth bottle, I was as well and as sound as ever I had been, I have no hesitation in saying that Sands’ Sar saparilla was the means, under Providence, of saving my limb and I doubt not my life. I most cheerfully recommend it as the best article extant for the purifi cation of the blood. Yours, most respectfully, JAMES MILLER. Prepared and sold, wholesale and retail, by A. B. & D.

JACOB TOWNSEND. Principal office, 102 Nassau-st., Nctt-Ytrk City, OLD DOCTOR Jacob |£l*B Townsend, THE ORIGINAL WMW DISCOVERER OF THE GENUINE TOWNSEND SARSAPARILLA. Old Dr. Townsend is now about 70 years of age, and has long been DISCOVERER of the GENUINE ORIGINAL lONNNSEND SARSAPARILLA.” Being poor, he was compelled to limit its manufacture, fcy which means it has been kept out of market, and the sales circumscribed to those only who had proved it* worth and known iu value. It had reached the ears of ma ny, nevertheless, a* those persons who had been healed of sore dis- HEM ( Y4“ r OWE°R '**Th'' proc * a ‘ rae< * and wonderful Grand and Unequalled Preparation is manufactured on the largest scale, and is called for throughout the length and breadth of the land. Unlike young S. P. Townsend's, it improve* with age, and never changes, but for the better ; because it is prepared on scientific prin ciple* by a scientific man. The highest knowledge of Chemistry, and the latest discoveries of the Art, have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture of the OLD DR.’S SARSAPARILLA. The Sar saparilla root, it is well known to medical men, contains medicinal pro perties, and some properties which are inert or useless ; and others, which, if retained in preparing it for use, produce fermentation and acid , which is injurious to the system. Some of the properties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile that they entirely evaporate and are lost in the prepara tion. If they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover these volatile princi ples, which flyoff ip vapor, or as an exhalation, under heat, are ths very essential medical properties of the root, which gives to it all its value. The GENUINE Old l>r. Jacob Townsend’* Sarsaparilla is 80 prepared, that all the inert properties of the Sarsaparilla root ■re first removed, everything capable of becoming acid or of fermenta tion, it extracted and rejected ; then every particle of medical virtue is secured in a pure and concentrated form ; and thus it is rendered incapable of losing any of its valuable and healing properties. Pre pared ia this way, it is made the most powerful agent in the Cure oU Innumerable Diseases. Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every tide In it* favor by men, women and children. We find it doing wonders in the cure of CONSUMPTION, DYSPEPSIA, and LIVER COMPLAINT, and in RHEUMATISM, SCROFULA and PILES, COSTIVENESS, ail CUTANEOUS ERUPTIONS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES , and all affections arising from Impurity of the Blood. It possesses a marvellous efficacy in all complaiats arising from In digestion, from Acidity of the Stomach ; from unequal circulation de termination of blood to the head, palpitation of the heart, cold feet and cold hands, cold chills and hot flashes over the body. It has not had t* equal in coughs and colds ; and promotes easy expectoration, and gentle perspiration, relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every 9lher part. But in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknow edged than in all kinds and stages of Female Complaint*. It works wonders In cases of Jiuor albus or whites, Falling of the Womb, Obstructed, Suppressed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity ol the menstrual periods, and the like ; and is effectual ki curing all forms of the Kidney Disease. By removing obstructions, and regulating the general system, it given tone and strength to the whole body, and cures all forms of Nervous Diseases and Debility, and thus prevents or relieves a great variety of other diseases, as Spinal Irritation, Neuralgia, St. Vitus Dance, Swooning, Epileptic Fite, Con vulsions, Ac. It is not possible for this medicine to fail to do good ; it has nothing in it which can ever harm ; it can never sour or spoil, and therefore can never lose its curative properties. It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy action, tones the stomach and gives good digestion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation, allays inflammation, purifies the skin, equalizes the circulation of the blood, producing gen tle warmth equally all over the body, and the insensible perspiration ; relaxes all strictures and lightness, removes all obstructions, and in vigorates the entire nervous system. Is not this, then. The medicine you Pre-eminently IVeed ! But can any of these things he said of S. P. Townsend's inferior article 1 This young man’s liquid is not to be Compared with the Old Dr.’g, because of one GRAND FACT, that the one is INCAPABLE of DE TERIORATION and Never Spoils, while the other DOES ; it sours, ferments, and blows the bottles containing it into fragments ; the sour, acid liquid exploding and damaging other goods ! Must not this horrible compound be poison ous to the system! What 1 put acid into a system already diseased with acid! What causes Dyspepsia but acid? Do we not all know, that when food sours in our stomachs, what mischiefs it produces ?—flatu lence, heartburn, palpitation of the heart, liver complaint, diarrhcea, dysentery,cholic and corruption of the blood? What is Scrofula but an acid humor in the body ? What produces all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the Skin, Scald Head, Sait Rheum, Erysipelas, While Swellings, Fever-Sores, and all ulceration* internal and exter nal ? It is nothing under heaven but an acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils all the fluids of the body, more or less. What causes Rheumatism but a sour acid fluid, which insinuates itself between the joints and elsewhere, irritating and inflaming the tender and delicate tissues upon which it acts? So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the blood, of deranged circulations, and nearly all the ailments which afflict human nature. Now, is it not horrible to make and sell, and infinitely worse to use this Souring, Fermenting, Acid “ Compound*’ OF S. P. TOWNSEND! and yet he would fain have it understood that Old Jacob Townsend’s GENUINE ORIGINAL SARSAPARILLA, is an IMITATION of his inferior preparation ! I Heaven forbid that we should deal in an article which would bear the most distant resemblance to S. P. Townsend’s article ! am. which should bring down upon the Old Dr. such a mountain load of com plaints and criminations from agents who have sold, and purchasers who have used S. P. Townsend's FERMENTING COMPOUND ! We wish it understood, because it is the absolute tru(A,thatS. P. Townsend’s article and Old Dr. Jacob Townsend’s Sarsaparilla are heaven-wide apart, and infinitely dissimilar; that they are unlike In every genicular, having not one single thing in common . As S. P. Townsetd is no doctor, and never was, is no chemist, no phar maceutist—knows no more of medicine or disease, than any other common, unscientific, unprofessional man, what guarantee can the public have that they are receiving a genuine scientific medicine con taining all the virtunes of the articles used in preparing it, and which are incapable of changes, which might render them the AGENTS of DISEASE instead of health ? It is to arrest frauds upon the unfortunate, to pour balm inte wounded humanity, to kindle hope in the despairing bosom, to restore health and bloom and vigor into the crusned and broken and to banish infirmity—that old DR. JACOB TOWNSEND ha- SOUGHT and FOUND the opportunity and means to bring his Grand Universal Gancentraled Remedy, within the reach, and to the knowledge of all who need It, that they may learn and know, by joyful experience, its Traancendenl Fewer to Heal ! and thus to have the unpurchasablo satisfaction of having raised thou sands and million* from the bed of sickness and despondency, to hope, health, and a long life of vigor and usefulness to themselves, their fam ilies and friends.

But Dr. Peters' Pills produce perfect health and cleanliness in the region of the chyle, of which the blood is made; , and hence the vital fluid is filtered—and flows in a state of purity from its very source —which ensures a permanency of health. Dr. Peters' Pills stand alone as a positive substi tute for Calomel and Blue Pills; for they act like magic on the Liver, and remove all superfluity of bile with a certainty that is beyond question, and never ends in disappointment. Indeed, whenever Calomel has foiled to dislodge the Bile, Peters’ Pills have at once effected it. And hence —since their fame has been established—Mercury has been but rarely re sorted to for that purpose. For sale in Augusta, by the following Agents ; Haviland, Risley & Co., W, K. Kitchen. Thos.

Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract. THE ASTONISHING success which has at tended the use of this invaluable medicine for Epileptic Pits, (or felling sickness,) Spasms, Cramps, Convulsions, &c., renders it the most valuable medi cine ever discovered. In fact, as a remedy for the above diseases it stands unrivalled and alone. There is no other reliable remedy. It has been said that Epilepsy is incurable. This, however, is not the fact. Dr. Hart's Vegetable Extract has and is constantly curing this distressing complaint, as the following tes timony received from Physicians and others will show : Judge Rundall, 156 Henry-st,, New York, having used the Vegetable Extract successfully in his family, highly recommends it to all persons who are afflicted with Fits. Mr. Stephen E. Pratt, corner of Sixth Avenue and Twenty-sixth-st., New York, states that Mr. Chas. H. Boughton, a member of his family, has been so severely afflicted with Epileptic Pits for many years, that he was obliged to relinquish his business. Hav ing used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract (says Mr. Pratt) he was soon restored to perfect health, and left this city for the State of Ohio to resume his business. Rev. Mr. Smith, Rector of St. Peters Church, Spots wood, New Jersey, who has been afflicted with Epi leptic Pits for more than forty years, states that he has used Dr. Hart’s Vegetable Extract and his health has been so much improved that he hopes by Divine blessing, to have no more Pits. EPILEPTIC FITS. Os twenty-seven years and six months , cured by the use of this truly wonderful medicine. Read the following remarkable case of the son of Wm. Secore, Esq., ofPhiladelphia, afflicted with Epi leptic Fits, twenty-seven years and six months. Af ter travelling through England, Scotland, Germany and France, consulting the most eminent physicians, and expending for medicine, medical treatment, and advice three thousand dollars, returned with his son to this country in November last, without receiving any benefit whatever, and was cured by using Hart’s Vegetable Extract: I Mr. William Secore's Letter to Dr, Hart.] 1 have spent over three thousand dollars for medi cine and medical attendance. I was adviced to take a tour to Europe with him, which 1 did. I first vis ited England. 1 consulted the most eminent physi cians there in respect to his case; they examined him and prescribed accordingly. 1 remained there three months without perceiving any change for the better, which cost me about two hundred and fifty dollars, pocketed by the physicians, and the roost that I re ceived was their opinion that my son’s ease was hope lessand POSITIVELY INCURABLE. I according ly left England, travelled through Scotland, Germany and France, and returned home in the month of No vember last, with my son as far from being cured as when I left. 1 saw your advertisement in one of the New York papers, and concluded to try Hart’s Vege table Extract, seeing your statements and certificates of so many cures, some of twenty and thirty years standing, and I can assure you I am not sorry I did so, as by the use of Hart’s Vegetable Extract alone he was restored to PERFECT HEALTH. His reason, which was so far gone as to unfit him for businesses en tirely restored, with the prospect now before him oflife, health and usefulness. He is now 28 years of age, and 27 years 6 months of this time has been afflicted with this most dreadful of diseases, but thank God is now enjoying good health. Now, sir, failli without works I don’t believe in,— To say I shall be ever grateful to you is one thing, and as I here enclose you one hundred dollars, I have no doubt but you will think this another and quite a dif ferent thing. The debt of gratiljade I still owe you ; but please accept this amount as interest on the debt in advance. Yours, very respectfully, (Signed.) WILLIAM SECORE.

GORDON’S FAMILY PlLLS—Being compounded exclusively of such ingredients as Nature intended should operate on the impurities of the Human System— strike at the root of the disease, removing all impurities from the body, opening the pores externally and internally, separating all foreign and obnoxious particles from the chyle, so that the blood, of which it is the origin, must be thoroughly pure —necessarily securing a free and vigorous action to the Heart, Lungs, *Xiver and Stomach, thereby restoring health, by opening the pores, cleansing the veins and arteries, unimpeding all the natural veins and purifying the blood, they render the system net only thoroughly sound, but also impervious to disease, even when all other means have failed. Within the last twelve months, more than one hun dred cases of the most aggravated forms of Dyspep sia have been cured by the Medicine, where rigid dieting, the Blue Pill, and almost every other means had been resorted to, without any benefit, and when death stared its miserable victim fully in the face.
