THE ORIGIN A I. I.'ISCOVEUER OF THE
Grnnine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
Old Dr. Townsend is now a i mut 70 years of nge, and lifts

been healed of sore diseases, and raved Irom dentil, pro

its inestimable virtues would he known and appreciated.
This tinip has mine, the means are supplied ; this

is tunnufartured on the largest scale, and is called for
throughout the length and hrc .dth of the land, especially
as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young tv I*. Townsend’s, it improves with age. and
never changes, hut for the bett‘*r : because it is prepared on
teimtific principle* by a scientific man. The highest knowl
edge of (Jheini* try. and the latest discoveries of the art,
have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture
of tiie (lid Dr’s Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla root, it is
well known to medical men, contains many medicinal pro
|ierties y and some projierties which are inert or useless, and
others, which if retained in preparing it for use, produce
ferment * foci and acid, which is injurious to the system.
Home 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 principles, w hich fly oil’ in vapor, or as an exhaia
lion, under heal, are the very essential medical properties
of the root, u hirh gi\e to it all its value.
Any person can hoil or stew the root till they get a rtnrk
eolored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter in
Jhe root than from any thing else: they run then straiu
this insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten with sour molasses,
and then call it •• SAKSAIWRILLA F.XTKA<T or SY
RUP." But a ich is not the article known as 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 |mucr(ul agent in the
Cure of innumerable diseases.
Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every
side In its. favor by men, women,and children. We find it

that S. P. Townsend’s article and Old Dr. Jacob Town

Fistula iu Aiiocurril without the
use of tiie Knife.
DU. W. XV. MARSHALL, ofMacon, Ga.,
would call the attention of the Public to a
j number of certificates published, and which he
j will continue to publish in various papers in the
State, of easel of Fistulacured by him. In the
j treatment ol'Fistula, recourse is generally had
!o the knife, which is always painful and olten
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,
1 but rather made worse. They were perfectly
; cured bv Dr. M. without the use of the knife, or
any such operation, without the least danger, and
with hut little or no pain. In most cases the
treatment does not prevent the ordinary pursuits
of business, although the patient is necessarily
'■ obliged to be under tlie immediate care and su-
I 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 fifieen years I
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.—During this time I 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 hut dangerous and not always suc
cessful, I was very mush opposed to submit to it,
and allowed the disease to progress so tar as to
present the alternative to submit to he 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 he did cure the disease,l determined
to place tnyself under his treatment, nnd he 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. With regard to
the Doctor's treatment, it is attended compara
tively with little pain, 1 was at no time confined
to the bed more than one day, nnd to the house
hut a very short time. He used no knife, (aud
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
casesof 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 wlio are afflicted with this dreadful malady,
not to hesitate hut at once to place themselves
under his treatment, and I doubt not llieir most
sanguine expectations will he realized.
II gives me great pleasure to say that in all mj
intercourse with Dr. Marshall, I found him the
perfect gentleman, and an intelligent, devoted
christain. J AS. E. GODFREY.
(CTRov. Jas. E. Godfrey is known to the public
as a local Methodist Minister, ami is engaged iu

Due West Corner, }
Abbeville District, S. C., July 13, 1848. )
Dr. W. \V. Marshall —Dear Sir—Believing
as I do, that you have effectually cured me of
the Fistula, an exceedingly stubborn, painful
and dangerous disease, 1 take pleasure in contri
buting my mite for the pui'|rose of relieving the
sufferings ofthose who may he afflicted with a
similar disease.
I suffered from the painful effects of this dis
ease for more than two years. Three or four
I’l.y sicians, 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 ;ny friends entertained fearful appre
hensions of my recovery.
Casually looking over a paper published in
Charleston, S. (my attention was arrested by a
notice oftho signal professional services of Dr.
W. W. Marshall of effecting a cure in cases of
Fistula, &c. The card purported to effect a
cure without the use of the knife or caustic. 1
must say my faith was weak, but I resolved to
give him a trial. 1 placed tnyself under his care
and treatment. He lias effected a perfect cure—
my whole frame is invigorated iie iias infused
new life into my hitherto dead body—l have ex
perienced a resurrection from the dead, and nil
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.SHAKE.
Irwinton, March 20, 1848.
Dear Sir —ln compliance with your request,
I send vou a certificate of the cure which you so
soon performed on me, of that dreadful disease
Fistula, and I think there is no person living,
who lias 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 chocked, would in a short time, termin
ate my mortal existence. Sometime in the
month of April, 1846, a small bard 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 Ilio month
of March, 1847, when I w as confined to my bed,
without knowing with what disease I was af
flicted, until Dr. William Fisher, of Irxvinton,
was called in, and pronounced the disease to be
Fistula in ano.
I then asked the Doctor if he thought he could
cure me?—he answered he thought he could,
but that l must expect to suffer a long time be
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 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 benefftted by your
| treatment.
1 have now entirely recovered my long lost
health, and can say with propriety, that 1 enjoy
I better health than I have for five years previous.
! I often on inquiry hear from you, and rejoice to
j hear that you are in good health, and ns soon as
j circumstances will permit, I xvill visit Macon, as
j I ran rhen express my gratitude to you in person.
I With due respect, I am sir, vour obliged and
humble servant, EDWIN TARBLEY.

• lIIE GLOBE :
•J Congressional, Agricultural and Literary
.Xewspaper.
rjr'llE Editors oftlic Congressional Globe pro
-2 pose anew publication. To deserve the
patronage which Congress has accorded to their
reports ofits debates, in receiving and making
t| l( , Globe the official register, they intend to add
promptitude to whatever merit has hitherto re
commended the work. They will publish a
Uni!v 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 he 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 respec's,
will be under the charge of Francis P. Blair
and James G. Pickett. The Congressional
department and business concerns of the paper
will be under the management of John 0. 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. lie is a gen
tleman favorable known to the Government, for
talent and judgment which distinguished bis di
plomatic service while connected with the mis
sion to Quito ; and more recently when Charge
d'Aff’aires 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 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 be 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 pioceedings and debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and the messages of tiie
President of the United States, and the reports
oftlic Heads ofthe Executive Departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
he published as fust 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 «PP e,ir
in the Globe save that which will be lound 111
the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming
to be an impaitiai 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 iri the party conflicts ot
the press They claim an honorable discharge
from the vocation. The Globe will inviolably
maintain the neutrality which its relation to
Congress imposes.

•T7OULD respectfully inform all persons nf
ll flirted with Cancer, Fistula, Wens, and
all ulcers and tumors, originating from what so
ever cause, that he is permanently located in
the city of Macon, xx here he may he found
both summer and « inter. Dr. M. would guard
the public against false reports, viz: that lie
had removed from Georgia—that he 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
vvofullv imposed upon, and have been obliged
to visit Dr. M. at last. Dr. M. deems it only
necessary to add, that hisfortner and continues
success in 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 lie refers to his pamphlet on Cancer,
cVc., which may be obtain) 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 xvill 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 xvho are continua'ly
under treatment from various parts of the Union,
in every stage and variety of the complaints.—
The treatment is without the use oftlic knife,
or caustic, aud is both constitutional and local
