FiMiilu in liiocur<-«i wi 111 out tlu: itsc of the Knife. DU. \V. \V. MARSHALL, of M aeon, (in., would call the attention of the Public to a number of certificates published, and which lie will continue to publish in various papers in the State, of cases of Fistula cured by him. In the treatment of Fistula, recourse is generally had to the knife, which is always painful and often hazardous and very frequently unsuccessful. More than one half of the cases that have cotne under his care of late, had been subject to the knife without experiencing the least benefit, but rather made w orse. They were perfectly cured by Dr. M. without the use of the knife, or any such operation, Without the least danger, and with but little or no pain. !u most cases the treatment does not prevent the ordinary pursuits of business, although the patient is necessarily obliged to be under the immediate care, and su pervision of the Doctor from one to four weeks, accordingly as the nature and circumstances ol the case may demand. Dr. M. does not exaggerate, when he says that the plan of treatment he pursues is obliged to succeed in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, if not in every case of Fistula. Savannah, March 15, 1849. This is to certify that for near fifteen years 1 Was afflicted with that dreadful disease Fistula, and for the last twelve months suffered so much pain, as to incapacitate me almost from atten ding to my business.—(Airing this time I consul ted several physicians both in this city and Charleston, anil was informed by all of them, the disease was incurable save by the knife of the surgeon. Learning the operation was not only very painful hut dangerous and not always suc cessful, I was very mush opposed to submit to it, and allowed the disease to progress so far as to present the alternative to submit to be operated upon, or die. At this time I saw Dr, Marshall’s card in the Christian Advocate, and communi cated with him on the subject, and after being satisfied that lie did cure the disease, 1 determined to place myself under his treatment, and he com menced to treat my case. I remained there four weeks and returned home nearly well, and X am happy now to say entirely restored. I would no doubt have been entirely well much sooner, but kept the place irritated from riding every day on horseback severl miles. With regard to the Doctor's treatment, it is attended compara tively with little pain, I was at no time confined to the bed more than one day, and to the house but a very short time, lie used no knife, (and so far as 1 could judge) no caustic. I am perfectly satisfied that the Doctor, with liis peculiar mode of practice, can cure the most cases of Fistula with less pain to the patient, in it shorter time and with more certainty than any physician that 1 have heard of, and would with great confidence, arising from experience, advise all who are afilicted with this dreadful malady, not to hesitate but at once to place themselves under his treatment, and 1 douln not their most sanguine expectations will he realized. 11 gives mu great pleasure to say that in all my intercourse with Dr. Marshall, 1 found him the perfect gentleman, and an intelligent, devoted christain. JAS. E. GODFREY. (O’Rev. Jas. E. Godfrey is known to the public as a local Methodist Minister, and is engaged in merchandizing in Savannah, where he may be addressed on the subject. W. \V. M. Due West Corner, ) Abbeville District, S. C., July 13, 1848. J Dr. W. \V. Marshall— Dear Sir—Believing as 1 do, that you have effectually cured me ol the Fistula, an exceedingly stubborn, painful and dangerous disease, I take pleasure in contri buting my mite for the purpose of relieving the sufferings ofthose who may be afilicted with a similar disease. I suffered from the painful effects of this «lis- , ease for inure than two years. Three or four! Physicians, combining the talent ot the State, xverc employed for my relief, but their united cl- i forts were unsuccessful. My health grew worse i and worse —I became debilitated in body and j wind, and my friends entertained fearlul appre hensions of my recovery. Casually looking over a paper published in Charleston, S. C., my attention was arrested by a notice ofthe signal professional services of Dr. W. W. Marshall of effecting a cure in cases of Fistula, &c. The card purported to effect a euro without the use ofthe knife or caustic. 1 must say my faith was weak, but I resolved to give him a trial. 1 placed myself under bis care and treatment, lie has effected a perfect cure— my whole frame is invigorated—he h.i> infused new life into my hitherto dead body—l have ex perienced a resurrection from the dead, and all the energizing and renovating effects of anew creation. lam in very deed anew man. My better convictions are that you have saved me j from an untimely'death, which the use of the knife or caustic could not have prevented but hastened. Yours, respectfully, CORNELIUS M. SHARP. Irwinton, March 20, 1848. Dear Sir —ln compliance with your request, I send you a certificate ofthe cure which you so soon performed on me, of that dreadful disease Fistula, and 1 think there is no person living, who has greater reason to bo grateful for your kindness than myself, in being cured of that dreadful disease, which all who saw me, believ ed if not checked, would in a short time, termin ate my mortal existence. Sometime in the month of April, 1846, a small hard tumor made its appearance near the verge of the arms, which in a short time became soft, und discharged at times a considerable portion of offensive matter, during which time I began to decline, and con tinued to decline until some time in the month of March, 1847, when 1 was confined to my bed, without knowing with what disease 1 was af flicted, until Dr. William Fisher, of Irwinton, was called in, and pronounced the disease to be Fistula in ano. 1 then asked the Doctor if he thought he could cure me?—he answered he thought he could, but that I must expect to suffer a long time be fore lie could perform a permanent cure. Ihe Doctor then commenced treating the case, and motioned to do so for seven weeks, without any material benefit, and then advised me to go to Macon and place myself under your control, as lie knew you from character, to be a gentleman of intelligence, piety and experience. I accord ingly went to Macon and placed myself under your control, and in a shorter time than 1 ex pected, found myself greatly benefilted by your treatment. 1 have now entirely recovered my long lost health, and can say with propriety, that 1 enjoy better health than 1 have for five years previous. I often on inquiry hear from you, and rejoice to hear that you are in good health, and as soon as circumstances will permit, I will visit Macon, as I can then express my gratitude to you in person. With due respect, 1 am sir, your obliged and humble servant, EDWIN TAR.PLEY. Dr. Marshall. Mr. XVMliams, late Proprietor of the XVash. ingtou Hall, has a knowledge of Mr. Turley’s case, as lie boarded atthe XVasliington Hall while under my care. In this case there were three abscesses, all of them mplete, viz : external and internal. Tlip discharge was very copious, at least a hail'a pint per day, and very acrid and offensive.

THE ORIGIN AL IMSC*>VERLR OF THE Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla. Old Dr. 'Townsend is now :w>out 70 years of ace, and ha* long been known :ts the AUTHOR and I)ISCOVERF.It of the GFXUIXE ORIGIX.iL “ TOIVXSEXJ) SAR SAPAR/Being poor. he was compelled to limit its ma nu fact are, by which means it has been kept out of mar ket, and the sale* c irctimscribed to those only who had proved its worth, and known it* value. It had reached the ears of many, nevertheless, as those persons who liad been healed of *ore diseases, and saved from death, pro claimed its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER. Knowing, many years ago. that he had. by his skill, science and experience, devised an article which would he of incalculable advantage to mankind when the means would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues would be known and appreciated. This time has come, the means are supplied ; this GRAXD AXh PR ERA RAT/OX is manufactured on the largest scale, anti is called for throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration. Unlike young S. i’ Towns-miN, it improves with age. and never changes, but for the better: because it is prepared on scientific principles by h scientific man. The highest knowl edge of Chemistry, and the I itest discoveries of the art, have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture ofthe Old Dr’s 3ar-a*p;trilla. The Sarsaparilla root, it is well known totm dirul men, contains ninny medicinal pro portirs and some properties which arc 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 preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these volatile pruictp.es, which fly oif in vapor, <>r as an exhala tion. under hi at. are the very essential medical properties of the root, which giv e to it all us value. Any person can boil or stew the root til! they get a dark colored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter In the root than from nuv thing else: they can then straiu this Insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten with soar molasses, *nd then call it -‘SARSAPARILLA EXTRACT or SY RUP.** Hut such is not the oniric known as the GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND’S SARSAPARILLA. This is so prepared, that all trie inert properties of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every thing capable of becoming acid or of fermentation, is 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. Prepared in this way, it is made the most powerful agent in the Cure ot innumerable diseases. Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every side In its favor by men. women, and children. We Aud it doing wonders in the cure of COXSIiJUPTIOX, DYSPEPSIA, and LIVER COM PLAJXT, and in I! I!E CM i Tls.M, SCROFULA, PILES, COs’nr-EXr.xs, alt CUTAXEOVS EU UP TIC XS, PIMPLES, BLOC JIIFS, and all affections arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD. It possesses a m irveilous* fliency in all complaints arising from Indigestion, from Audi ..'ofthe Stomach, from unequal circulation, determination of blood to the head, palpitation ofthe heart, cold feet and hands, cold chills ami hot flushes over the body. It has not its equal in Colds ami Coughs ; ami promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration, relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every other part. Hut in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in all kinds and stages of FEMALE COMPLAINTS. It works wonders in eases of b nor Albus or IVhitcs. Fall ing of the It’omb, Obstructed, Suppressed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity ofthe menstrual periods, and the like; and is as etiectual in curing all the forms of Kidney Diseases. By removing obstructions, and regulating the general system it give t uie and strength to the whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous diseases anil debility, nml thus prev< ats or relieves a great variety of other mala dies, as ISp nal irritation, Xeurn/.gia, hit.

Townsend’s article and Old Dr. Jacob Toxvn* lend’s Sarsaparilla, are heaven-wide apart, and infinitely die ftniilar; that they arc unlike in every particular, having not one single thing in common. As S. P. Townsend is no doctor, and never was, is no chemist, no pharmaceutist—knows no more of medicine or disease than any other common, unscientific, unprofessional ceiving a genuine scientific medicine, containing all tht virtues of the articles used in preparing it. and which are in capable of changes which might render them the AGENTS of Disease instead of health. But what else should lie expected from one who know* nothing comparatively of medicine or disease ! It requires a person of some experience to cook and serve up even a common decent meal. How much more important is it that the persons xvho manufacture medicine, designed for WEAK STOMACHS AND ENFEEBLED SYSTEMS, should know well the medical properties of plants, the best manner of securing and concentrating their healing virtues, also an extensive knowledge of the variousdbeases which artect the human system, und how to adapt remedies to these diseases'. It is to arrest frauds upon the unfortunate, to pour balm into wounded humanity, to kindle hope in the despairing bosom, to restore health arid bloom, and vigor into the on* bed and broken, and to banish infirmity that OLD DR.

To deserve the patronage which Congress has accorded to their reports of its debates, in receiving and making the Globe the official register, they intend to add promptitude to whatever merit has hitherto re commended the work. They will publish a Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de bates as they occur ; and a Congressional Globe periodically, as heretofore, embodying the re ports of Congress separate front the miscellaneous matter which w ill accompany them in the daily print. To fill the sheet of the daily newspaper, it is designed to gather the news from all quar ters, and complete the contents by drawing from evorv source that may be of most interest among literary novelties, and of greatest utility in scien tific and practical works on agriculture. For material, the leading journals and periodicals of France and Great Britain, treating of such sub jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan tageously used. Original essays, especially on topics connected with agriculture, will be obtain ed from the most enlightened and practical men of our country. The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and amusement in other respects, will be under the charge of Francis P. Blair and James C. Pickett. The Congressional department and business concerns of the paper will be under the management of John C. Rives. The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with the press. In introducing Mr. Pickett as one of the concern, they will be al lowed to say a few words of him. He is a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, tor talent and judgment which distinguished his di plomatic service while connected with the mis sion to Quito ; and more recently when Charge d’Affaires to Peru. From his pen mainly the Globe will derive the selections and translations from the French journals and periodicals, the comments on them, and the other literary articles which will be found among its chief attractions. The Globe will be published daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly the balance of the year, and will undergo distribution in the form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will be the vehicle ofthe miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years, Congression al pioeeedingsand debates exclusively. The Appendix xvill embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President of the United States, and the reports ofthe Heads ofthe Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be published as fast as the proceedings of Con gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, and two or three num bers of each a week afterwards, until the end of the session. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will be found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to bo an impartial vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party hue. The Editors of the Globe have borne their share in the party conflicts of the press They claim an honorable discharge from the vocation. The Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality which its relation to Congress imposes. TERMS: For one copy of the Daily Globe (daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly during the recess,) a year, : : $5 00 For one copy ofthe Weekly Globe, one year,2 00 For one copy of the Congressional Globe, during the next session, if subscribed for before the first day of January, 1 00 For one copy ofthe Appendix during the next session, if subscribed for before the first day of January, : 1 00 For six copies of either the Congressional Globe, or the Appendix, or part of both, 5 00 The subscription for the Congressional Globe or the Appendix, after the Ist of January, will he $1 50. The original price of One Dollar does not pay tin: expenses of the publication in consequence of the great increase of matter pub lished. Our prices for these papers are so low that we cannot afford to credi; them out; therefore no person need consume time in orderiug them, unless the subscription price accompanies the order.

Dr M. would guard the public aguinst false reports, viz : that he bad removed from Georgia—that Re was dead, or deranged in mind. It also appears that some itinerant and other doctors, are making, or try ing to make, the false impression that they treated diseases precisely as Dr M. does, there by misrepresenting him, and deceiving their patients, some of whom, of late, have been vvofully imposed upon, and have been obliged to visit Dr. M. at last. Dr. M. deems it only necessary to add, that hisformer and continues success in the management of these diseases, is conclusive evidence of the superiority of his practice over all o'liers known in this, or and other country. For the correctness ofthis as sertion he refers to his pamphlet on Cancer, etc., which may be obtaim and gratis, by appli cation to him by letter (post paid) or otherwise. For the further encouragement of the afflicted Dr. M. would just add, that on their arrival at Macon, they will have the in st abundant tes timony in favor of the utility of the treatment, by having access to those who have been made whole, and also to those who are continua'ly under treatment from various parts ofthe Union, in every stage and variety of the complaints..— The treatment is without the use of the knife, or caustic, and is both constitutional and local dec 2 I—ts (iotlcy’s Lady’s Book for 1849.
