Fistula in Ano cured without the
use of the Knife.
DR. W. W. MARSHALL, of Macon, Ga.,
would call the attention of the Public to a
number of certificates published, and which he
will continue to publish in various papers in the
State, of cases of Fistula cured by Jiiin. 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
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 I)r. 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 docs 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.
Ur. M. does not exaggerate, when ho says that
the plan of treatment he pursues is obliged to
succeed in ninety-nine cases out ot a hundred,
if not iu every case of Fistula.
Savannah, March 13, 1819.
This is to certify that for near fifteen years I
was afflicted with that dreadful disease Fistula,
and for the last twelve months suffered so much
pain, as to incapacitate me almost Irotn atten
ding to my business. —During this time I consul
ted several physicians both in this city and
Charleston, ami was informed by all of them,
the disease was incurable save by the knife ol the
surgeon. Learning the operation was not only
very painful hut dangerous and not always suc
cessful, I was very mush opposed to submit toil,
and allowed the disease to progress so far as to
present the alternative to submit to be operated
upon, or die. Al this time I saw Dr. Marshall s
card in the Christian Advocate, ami communi
cated with him on the subject, and alter being
satisfied that lie did cure the disease, I determined
to place myself under his treatment, and lie com* ,
menced to treat my case. I remained there
four weeks and returned home nearly well, and
I am happy now to say entirely restored. 1 would
no doubt have been entirely well much sooner,
but kept the place irritated from riding every
day on horseback severl miles. Wi li tegard to
the Doctor's treatment, it is attended compara
tively w ith little pain, 1 was at no time confined
to the bed more than one day, and to the house
hut a very short time, lie 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 mo 4
cases of Fistula with less pain to the patient, in
a shorter time and with more certainty than any
physician that I have heard of, and would with
great confidence, arising (rum experience, advise
all who are afflicted with this dreadful malady,
irot to hesitate hut at once to place themselves
und-r his treatment, and I doubt not their most
sanguine expectations wilt be realized.
It gives me great pleasure t" sav that in all my
intercourse with Dr. Marshall, I found him the
perfect gentleman, and an ititelhgent, demoted
ebristuin. J AS. E GODFREY.

buting my mite for the purpose of relieving the
•offerings of those who may be afflicted with a
similar disease.
1 suffered from the painful effects of this dis
ease for more than two years. Three or four
Physicians, combining the talent ol the State,
were employed for my relief, hilt their united ef
forts were unsuccessful. My health grew worse
and worse —I became debilitated in body and
mind, and my friends entertained fearful appre
hensions of my recovery.
Casually looking over a paper published in
Charles'.on, S. my attention was arrested by a
notice nfthe signal professional services of Dr.
W. VV. Marshall of effecting a cure in eases of
Fistula, &c. The card purported to effect a
cure without the use of the knife or caustic. I
must sav mv faith was weak, but I resolved to
give him a trial. I placed inyseif under ins care
and treatment. He lias effected a perfect cure—

Irwinton, March 20, 1848.
Dear Sir —ln compliance, with your request,
T send you a certificate of the cure which you so
noon performed on me,of that dreadful disease
Fistula, and I think there is no person living,
who has greater reason to lie grateful for your
kinJness than myself, in being cured of that
dreadful disease, which all who saw me, believ
ed if not checked, would in a short tune, 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, and 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.
I tlien asked the Doctor if he thought lie could
cure me?—he answered he thought he could,
but that I must expect to suffer a long time be
fore he couid perform a permanent cure. The
Doctor then commenced treating the case, and
continued to do so for seven weeks, w ithout any
material benefit, and then advised me to go to
Macon and place myself under your control, as
he 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 I ex
pected, found myself greatly bcuefitted by your
treatment. .
1 have now entirely recovered my long lost
health, and can say with propriety, that I enjoy
better health than I 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, 1 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 TARPLEY.

Unlike young S. I* Townsend’s, it improves with age. and

of the Old Dr’s Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla root.it is

I'llE GLOBE :
A Congressional, Agricultural and Literary
Newspaper.
rg’MJE Editors oftlie Congressional Globe pro
1. pose anew publication. 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, embody ing the re
ports of Congress separate from the miscellaneous
matter which will accompany them in the daily
print. To fill the slice', 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 he of most interest among
literary novelties, and ofgreatestutility 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 h« obtain
ed from the most enlightened and practical men
of mir country.
The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle
of information and amusement in other respec‘s,
will h<- under the charge of Francis I*. Blair
and Jaxies C. Pickett. The Congressional
department and business concerns of the paper
will ho under the management ul'Jiiiin G. Rives.
The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as
connected with the press. In introducing Mr.
Pickett us one of the concern, they will he al
lowed to say a few words of him. lie 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 mice recently when Charge
d'Affaire* 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 he published daily during the
session ofCongress, 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 oftlie
miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a
synopsis of the Congressional proceedings.
The Congressional Globe will embody, as it
lias done for the last sixteen years,Congression
al pi oeeedings and debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and the messages of the
President oftlie United States,and the reports
oftlie Heads oftlie Executive Departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
he 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 he found in
the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming
to he an inipaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain its character if the editorial columns
reflect a party line. The Editors of the Globe
have borne their share iu the*party conflicts of
the press They claim an honorable discharge
from the vocation. ’Flic Globe will inviolably
maintain the neutrality which its relation to
Congress imposes.

Dr. XV. XV. IVlursliall,
«»70ULD respectfully inform all persons af-
TANARUS» flirted with Cancer, Fistula, W ens, and
a 1 ulcers and tumors, originating trom wliatso
evercause, that he is permanently located in
the city of Macon, where he may he found
both summer and » inter. Dr M. w ould guard
the public against false reports, viz : that lie
had removed from Georgia—that he was dead,
or deranged in mind. It alsoappcnrsthat 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 tieeu
wofully imposed upon, and have been obliged
to visit Dr-. M. at lust. Dr. M. deems it onlv
necessary to add, that his former and continues
success in the management of these diseases, is
conclusive evidence of the superiority of his
practice over nil o'hers known in this, or and
other country. For the correctness of this as
sertion lie refers to his pamphlet on Uuncvr,
Arc., which may be oblnintd gratis, hy 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
Mneon, 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 continually
under treatment from various parts of tli Union,
in every stage and variety oftlie complaints.—
The treatment is without the use oftlie knife,
'or caustic, and is both constitutional and local
