To the Halt, the Lame, the *ore, and the *tiff Jointed ; “ WE BRING GLAD TIDINGS OF GREAT JOY!” r I''HIS LIN IMKVT is 01. eof the most perfect remedies ever offered to the afflicted. Its action upon tlie organization is X truly wonderful. Its volatile. i>enetrating, soothing and healing properties diffuse themselves to the very bones. It enters into the circulation of the blood —gives a new impulse to the whole nervous system to the very extremities of the fingers aud toes —stimulates the absorbents and secretions, and thus ASSISTS NATURE to throw off and rid herself of any diseased action of nerves, muscles, chords or ligament*, making it equally applicable ot Sores of any kind, Rheumatism, PAINS IN EVERY PART OF THE BODY, from a diseased action of anv of the structural portions of the svstem. WHILE IT IS PERFECTLY HARMLESS. To healthy flesh, skin or bone, it has the property of entering into combination and dissolving any of the organic tissues when they are diseased, or their vitality is destroyed. Possessing those peculiar powers, is the reason why it is EQUALLY EFFICACIOUS in so many different complaints. It acts upon scientific principles and FIXED LAWS OF THE CREATOR. From the hundreds of cures that are being almost daily reported to us from all parts of the country, we give a few below. SALT RHEUM. Mrs. Anna M. Pierce, wife of John Pierce, Plumber, on Market-street, had been afflicted for many years with this trou blesome aud obstinate affection. The disease was confined, principally, to her hands, which would'hecome vary much in flamed and swollen, producing almost intolerable itching and burning. After a few days, this erysipelatous irritation would subside, when the skin would peel off and dry in scales, and at every Jomt LARGE AND FRIGHTFUL CRACKS would penetrate nearly to the bone, extending half way around the fingers, and entirely across the palms of the hands. In consequence of this drying and contracting of the muscles, the hands were nearly closed, and the ends of the fingers drawn towards the centre of the palms. In this awful condition, SHE SUFFERED FOR YEARS, trying every remedy that Doctors could prescribe, without any relief. A bottle of Mustang was brought into the house by a young man who was using it for A PAIN IN IIIS BACK, and was so much benefitted bv it that he requested her to try it on her hands ; site did so, and by the rue of a few bottles SHE IS PERFECTLY CURED! The frightful cracks have closed, the roughness and excoriation of the skin have disappeared, and her fingers and hands are as PLIABLE AND SOFT AS AN INFANT’S. FOR HORSES AND OTHER ANIMALS, There is nothing can be compared to the MUSTANG LINIMENT, in its speedy and permanent cure of Strains, Bruises, Cuts, Galls, Chafes, Scratches, Sweeney, Poll Evil, Fistula, Big Head, Spavin, Ring-bone, Wind-gall, Cracked Heels, or any wound, stiffness, or unnatural enlargement of bone or muscle. A livery stable keeper of this city had a match horse that he prized very highly that had a large ring-bone on both legs. The horse was completely cured, and his limbs left per fectly smooth by the use of this Liniment. TO COUNTRY MERCHANTS. Every store should be supplied with this valuable Liniment, as it pays a good profit and sells rapidly. CAUTION EXTRA- In consequence of the unprecedented popularity of the MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT, many persons with more cu pidity than brains, have been and will be tempted to put up worthless or pernicious mixtures, with efforts of imitation or similarity to this Liniment, and try to palm them off upon a credulous public, as possessing similar curative properties. no NOT BE DECEIVED. None but the proprietors possess a knowledge of its composition (which is secured to them by the laws of the United States,) and when they reveal it, it shall be for the benefit of the afflicted, and not for the miscreants who would “ FILCH FROM L 8 OI K GOOD NAME” To fill their own pockets from our labors and exertions.

MANTILLA DEPARTMENT. To this branch of their business they wish to call partic ular attention. From Mr. D.’s great experience for many years as a Manufacturer of MANTILLAS in New York, London and Paris, they feel satisfied they can produce them as rich, or got up in as good style, and sell them as cheap as they can be purchased in New York. DRESS MAKING. For the very liberal encouragement heretofore extended to E. S. by her kind patrons, she tenders her most sincere thanks; and now that she has associated her Brother-in law in partnership, she hopes, from the new an-angement, to be more easily enabled to give the same satisfaction; and she trusts that her endeavors to please all ladies who may give her a preference, shall prove equally successful. By a strict and assiduous attention to, and relying on their conversance with, and perfect knowledge of their busi ness, and devoting their attention exclusively to it, and at all times using their best endeavors to meet the wishes and suit the taste of the Ladies, they hope to merit their sup port. ja!7-swtFls RICH FRENCH EMBROIDERIES AND LADIES’ DRESS GOODS.

' THE REMEDY IS FOUND AT LAST. npUTT’S PECTORAL ELIXIR is one of the most X certain and most pleasant Remedies ever offered to tlis Public. Its soothing, healing and strengthening virtues dis fuse themselves so generally throughout the human Lungs, that it is impossible for Pneumonia, Croup, Bronchitis, Pleu risy, Asthma, Whooping Cough, Hoarseness, Difficult Breathing, Pain in the Side, or Consumption, to | its power. Its effects upon the Depuvatory Organs are sa*” prompt that Nature is enabled to throw off all unhealthy or impure agencies that tend to disease the delicate substance of the Lungs. From the hundreds of cures that are almost daily report ed, it would be impossible for the most incredulous tc doubt for a moment. Many who have suffered for years w th dis eases of tha Respiratory Organs have been cured by it, and are sounding its praises abroad. The PECTORAL ELIXIR is prepared from vegetable sub stances alone, audits use for years would tend to strength en the system, and not like most other Medicines, weaken it. It is now being used by some of the most eminent Phy sicians in the country, and by many is considered an infalli ble remedy in CROUP.
