Fistula ill Anocured without the use of' the Knife. Dr. \V. W. MARSHALL, of Macon, Ga., would call llic attention of tiie Public to a number of certiorates published, and which he will continue to publish in various papers in the Slate, of cases of Fistulahured 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. than one half of the cases that have come under his care of late, had been subject to the knife without experiencing the least benefit, but rather made worse. 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. In most cases the treatment does not prevent the ordinary pursuits of business, although the patient is necessarily obliged to he under the immediate care and su pervision of the Doctor from one to four weeks, accordingly as the nature and circumstances of the case may demand. Dr. M. does not exaggerate, when he says that the plan of treatment lie pursues is obliged to succeed in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, if not in every case of Fistula. Savannah, March 15, 184 ft. This is to certify that for near fifteen years I was afflicted with that dreadful disease. Fistula, j and for the last twelve months suffered so much pain, as to iucupamtate me almost from atten ding to my busino®.—During this time l consul ted several physicians both in this city and Charleston, and 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 but dangerous and not always suc cessful, I was very mush opposed to submit to it, an-J allowed tho 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, I determined to place myself under his treatment, mid lie com menced to treat my case. 1 remained there four weeks and returned home nearly well, and I 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 soverl miles. Willi 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 lint a very short time. He used no knife, (and so far as I could judge) no caustic. I am perfectly satisfied that the Doctor, with his peculiar mode of practice, can cure the most cases of Fistula with less pain to the patient, in a 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 afflicted with this dreadful malady, not to hesitate but at oneo to place themselves under his treatment, and I doubt not their most sanguine expectations will be realized. It gives me great pleasure to say that in all my intercourse with Dr. Marshall, 1 found him the perfect gentleman, and an intelligent, devoted christaiu. JAS. E GODFREY. O’R« V - E.

Due West Corner, ) Abbeville District, S. C., July 13, 1848. 5 Dr. W. W. Marshall —Dear Sir—Believing as I do, that you have effectually cured me ol the Fistula, an exceedingly stubborn, painful and dangerous disease, 1 take pleasure in contri buting my mite for the purpose of relieving the sufferings oftliose who may be afflicted with a similar disease. I suffered from the painful effects of this dis ease for more than two yeurs. Three or four Physicians, combining the talent of the State, were employed for my relief, but their united ef forts were unsuccessful. My health grew worse and worse—l became debilitated in body and mind, and my friends entertained fearful appre hensions of my recovery. Casually looking over a paper published in Charleston, S. C., my attention was arrested by a notice nftho 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 of the knife or caustic. I must-say iny faith was weak, but I resolved to give him a trial. 1 placed myself under iiis care and treatment. He lias effected a perfect cure— my whole frame is invigorated lie has 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 from an untimely death, which the use of the knife or caustic could not have prevented but hastened. Yours, respectfully, CORNELIUS M. SHARP. Ikwintos, March 20, 1848. Dear Sir—ln compliance with your request, I send vou a certificate of the cure which you so 1 soon performed on me,of that dreadful disease Fistula, and I think there is no person living, who has greater reason to he 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 sort, und discharged at times a considerable portion of offensive matter, ,1 urine- which time I began to decline, and con tinued to decline until some time in tiie month of March, 1317, when I was confined to niy bed, without knowing with what disease I was af flicted, until Dr. William Fisher, of Irwinton, was called in, and pronounced the disease to be Fistula in ami. I then asked the Doctor ifhc thought he could cure me? —he answered iie thought lie could, but that I must expect to suffer a long time he fore he could perform a permanent cure. The Doctor then commenced treating the case, and continued to do so for seven weeks, without any material benefit, and then adv ised me to go to Macon and place myself under your control, as lie kne w you from character, to he a gentleman of intelligence, piety arid experience. 1 accord ingly went to Macon and placed myself under your control, and in a shorter time than 1 ex pected, found myself greatly benefitted hv your treatment. 1 have now entirely recovered my long Inst health, and can say with propriety, that I enjoy better health than 1 have for five years previous. 1 often on inquiry hear from you, and rejoice to hear that vou are in good health, and as soon ns 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 TARBLEY . Dr. Marshall. OJ'Mf.

Oid Dr. Townsend m now nlxxtt 70 years of njte, and lias lotix been known as the AUTHOR and DISCOVERER of lhe (JF.YUf.YK ORIGINAL “ TO fVNSFND SAIL SAPARILI.AM Reing poor, he was compelled to limit its uinnufitctNre, by which means it hits been kept out of mar ket. and the sales circumscribed to those only who had proved its worth, and known its vulue. It had reached the ears of m»iny, nevertheless, as those persons who h;id been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pro claimed its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER. Knowinf, many years ago. that he had. bv his skill, science and e.xjierieiice, devised an article which would he of incalculable advantage to mankind w hen the means would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues would be known and appreciated. This time lias come, the means are supplied ; this GRAND AND UNFQUAI.LFU PREPARATION is manufactured on the largest scale, and is called for throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially as \t is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration. Unlike young S. I* Townsend’s, it improves with age. and never changes, hut for the better : because it is prepared on setentifir. principles by a scientific man. The highest knowl edge 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 Sarsaparilla root.it is well known to medical men, contains many 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 preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only to those experienced in its mnnufactuie. Moreover, these volatile principles , which fly off in vapor, or as an exhala tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties •if the root, which give to it nil its vhliic. Any person can boil or stew the root till they get a darfc eolored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter in the root than from any thing else: they can then strain this insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten with sour molasses, and then call it •*SAK.SAI’AItIIJ.A F.XTKACT or SY RUP.” lint sach Is not the article know nas the GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND’S SARSAPARILLA. This is so prepared, that all the 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 of innumerable diseases. Hence the reason w hy we hear commendations on every side in its favor by men, women, and children. \Ye find it doing wonders in the cure of CONSUMPTION, UYSPKPstA. and LIVER COM PLAINT and in RHEUMATISM, SCR OKU LA. PILLS, COST ILLNESS, all CUTANEOUS ERUP TIC NS , PIMPLES, IS LOCI'!1 LS, and all allectiont arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD. It possesses a marvellous efficacy in all complaints arising from Indigestion, front Aiidity of the Stomach, from unequal circulation, determination of blood to the head, palpitation of the heart, cold feet and hands, cold chills and hot flashes over the body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs ; and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration, relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every other part. Ihit in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in all kinds and stages its FEMALE COMPLAINTS. It works wonders in cases of Fluor A/bus or IVhites. Fall ing of the IVomb, Obstructed, Suppressed, or Painful Menses, Irregularity of the menstrual |>eriods, and tile like ; and is as effectual in curing all the forms of Kidney Disease s. By removing obstructions, and regulating the general system, it gives tone and strength to the whole body, and til us cures all forms of Nervous diseases and debility, and thus prevents or relieves a great variety of other mala dies, as Spinal irritation. Neuralgia, St. Titus' Dance Swooning, Fjsilcptic Fits, Convulsions, &c. It demises 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, equalises the circulation of the blood, producing gentle w armth equally all over the body, and the insensible perspiration ; relaxes all strictures and tight uess, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the entire nervous system, la not this then Tlic medicine you pre-eminently need l But can any of these things be said of S.

Townsend’s FKRMENTINfJ COMPOUND. We wish It understood, because it is the absolute truth, that t*. P. Townsend’s article and Old Dr. Jacob Town scad’s Sarsaparilla are henwith, apart, and infinitely die similar; that they are unlike in ever) particular, having uot one single thine 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 cian. what guarantee can the public have that they are re ceiving a genuine scientific medicine, containing all the virtues of the articles used in preparing it. and which are in capable of changes which might render them the AGENTS ot Disease instead of health. Hut what else should be 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 who 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 various diseases which attect the human system, and how to adapt remedies to thc?e diseases It is to nrre>i frauds upon the unfortunate, to pour halm into wounded humanity, to kindle hope in the despairing bosom, to restore health and bloom, and vigor into the crashed and br< ken. and to banish infirmity that OLD DR.

To deserve the patronage which Congress has accorded to their reports ofits 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 from the miscellaneous matter which will 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 every 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, ns a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and amusement in other respects, will he 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 wil l be al lowed to say a few words of him. He is a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, for 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 he 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 he the vehicle of the 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 pioceedingsand debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President of the United States, and the reports ofthe H eads 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 Congressiohnl reports. A paper assuming to he an impattial 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 dujring the recess,) a year, : : $5 Oft For one copy ofthe Weekly Globe,one year,2 00 For one copy ofthe 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 the 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 ordering them, unless the subscription price accompanies the order.

Dr. M. deems it only necessary to add, that hisfonner and continues successin the management of these diseases, is conclusive evidence of the superiority of his practice over all others known in this, or and other country. For the correctness of this as sertion he refers to his pamphlet on Cancer, Sic., which may be obtuimd 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 m .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 continually under treatment from various parts of the Union, in every stage and variety ofthe complaints.— The treatment is without the use of the knife, or caustic, and is both constitutional and local, dec 2 I—tt Gotley’s Lady’s Rook for 1849.
