-1- many, Europe belongs the ii»peri*lial>ie hon
or of adding a m,w and precious doctriße to
the Science of Medicine—-a doctrine wiiicb,
though vehemently opposed by many of the fa
culty, [of which he is a valuable member,] he
proves to be as well founded in truth as any doc
trine of Holy Writ---a doctrine, upon the verity
ol which are suspended the lives of millions of our
race, and which he boldly challenges his oppo
sers to relute, viz : Consumption is a disease al
ways occasioned by a disordered slate of f'is Vila
(or Life Principle) of the human body:
secretly lurking in the system for years before there
is the least complaint of the Lungs nd which
may be as certainly, though not so quickly, cured,
as a common cold o r a simple headache. An inval
uably precious doctrine this, as it imparts an im
portant lesson to the apparently healthy of both
eexes, teaching them that this insidious foe may
be an unobserved inmate oftheir ‘’clayey houses”
even while ihev imagine themselves secure fro a
«s attacks, teaching them that THE GREAT
SECRET IN THE ART OF PRESERVING
HEALTH JS TO PLUCK OUT THE DIS
EASE WHILE in PHE BLADE. AND NOT
WAIT TILL THE FULL GROWN EAR.
This illastrioms benefactor of man is also enti
tled leonr unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude
et n world, for the invention of his MATCH
LESS SAXATIY E.—whose healing fiat may
justly claira lor it such a title, since it has s«
signally triumphed over our great common ene
my both in the first and
last stages,-—a medicine which has throughly fil
Jed the vaewn in the Mateiit Medina, and
thereby proved i*elf the QJ»Cofiq( err r Pht*
icia.-vs^O —a medicine, for which all mankind
will have abundant cause to bless the beneficent
hand of a kind Providence, —a medicine whose
wondrous virtues have been so glowingly portray
ed even by some of our clergy, in their pastoral
visits to the sick chamber; by which means thev
often become the happy instruments of changing
despondency into hope, sickness into health, and
sadness of friends into joy fulness.

than tlicvn.st mines of Austria, or even the united
treasures of our globe,---a medicine, which is ob
tained equally (rom the vegetable, animal and min
eral kingdoms, and thus possesses a thref.-fold
power.-—a medicine, which tliougn designed as
u remedy for consumption solely, is possessed of
n mysterious influence over many diseases of the
F man system,— an edici’ ", which begincstobe

its astonishing cures of many whom they had ie

A rer<ifieate from three members of the
MEDICAL PROFESSION in Germany, in
Europe.
We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine
in Germany are well aware that, by our course,
we may lorieit the fr'endship of some of the fa
culry. but not of ils benevolent members, w ho are
Uninfluenced by selfish motives. Though we
shall refrain from an expression of our opinion,
either o( the soundness or unsoundness of Dr.
Goelicke’s tine doctrine, we are happy to' say
that we deem his Sanative too valuable not to he
generally known— for what onr eyes behold end
out ears hear, we must believe.
We hereby state, that when Dr. Louis Offon
Goelicke first caine before the German public, as
the pretended discoverer of anew doctrine and a
new medicine, we held him in the highest con
tempt. believing, and openly pronouncing him to
be a base impostor and the prince of quacks. Rut,
on hearing so much jaid about the Sanative,
against it and for it, we were induced, from motives
of curiosity merely, to make, trial of its reputed
virtues upon a number of our most hopeless pa
tients; and we now deem it onrboumlen duty (even
at the expense of ourself interest) publicly to ac
knowledge its efficacy in curing not only consump
tion, but other fearful maladies, which we have
heretofore believed to be incurable. Our con
tempt for the discoverer of this medicine was at
once swallowed up in our utter astonishment at
these unexpected results; and, as amends for our
abuse of him, we do frankly confess to the world,
that we believe him a philanthropist, who does
honor to the profession, and to our country, which
gave him birth.
I he teccnt adoption of this medicine into some
of onr European hospitals is a sufficient guaranty
that it performs all its promises. It needed not
onr testimony for wherever it is used it is its own
best witness.

Sir—A most wonderful cure has lately effect

»n the case of an elderly gentleman, who was far
gone and wasted away in CONSUMPTION,
and considered PAST RECOVERY BY HIS
FA MIL i PII\ SIC AN. He is now compara
tively speaking, a WELL MAN. I saw him
myself a few days since, in company with his wife
starting on a journey to the western part of this
State. He ascribes his escape from the very jaws
•I death, and his recovery to health solely to the
astonishing virtues of the Matchless Sanative,

Reviews and Critical .Noticks, occupy their

Essays and 1 alks, having ia view utility or i
musement, or both— Historical sketches— and
Rkminisf.ncf.s ol events too minute for Historv

may be regarded as forming the staple of the
work. And of indigenous Poetry, enough ig
published sometimes of no mean strain—to nun.
nest and to cultivate the growing poetical taste
'lid talents of our country.
ihe times appear, for several reasons, to de
mand such a work—and not one alone, bnt many
I be public mind is feverish and irritated sffl
from recent political strifes : '1 he soft, asspasive
influence of Literature is needed, to allßv that
lever, and so.,the that irritation. Vice and folly
are noting abroad : —They shonld be driven bv
indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, into their
fitting haunts. Ignorance lords it over an im
me use proportion of our people .—Every sprite
should be set in motion, to arouse the enlighten
(•<!, and to increase tlieir number; r*o that the
great enemy of popular government may no lon
gor brood, like a portentous cloud, over the dfs
limes of onr country. Vnd to accomplish all
these ends, what more powerful agent can be em
ployed, than a periodical on the plan of the Mes
senger; if that plan be but carried out in prac
tice ; 1
The South peculiarly requires such an n-rent.
In all the l nion, south of V ashington, there are
but two Literary periodicals ! Northward of that
city, there are probably at least twenty-five or
ihirty! Is this contrast justified by the wealth
the .leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary
taste ol the Southern people, compared with
those of the Northern? No: for in wealth, tal
ents and taste, we may justly claim, at least, an
tquahty with out brethren ,nd a domestic insti
tutmn exclusively our own, beyond all doubt, at
lords us, if we choose, twice the leisure for read
mg and writing which they enjoy.
It was from a deep sense of this local want, that
the word Southern was engrafted on thi« pe ri
odical: and not with any design to nourish local
prejudices, or to advocate supposed local into;
ests. rar from any such thought, it is the Erii
tor’s fervent wish, to see the North and South
bound endearingly together, fo revet, in the silken
bands ot mutual kindness and affection. Far
fmm meditating hostility to -the north, he has a!
ready drawn, hir! he hopes hereafter to draw,
much ot his choicest matter thence; and happ'
indeed will he deem himself, should his pages, bv
making eurh region know the other better confri
bute m any essential degree to dispel the lowering
clouds that now threaten the peace of both, and
to ■ uglum and strengthen the sacred ties of fra
tcrnal Jove.

CARD.
To th, patrons of tl„ Southern Literary Messateer.
1 he startlin; at who work has been
established. r*d is a tainAAd the bnckna d
riess of many subscribers * fulfilling their pari of
out mutual ompaet, call indispensably for an ap
pe,i,, not to their liberality—but to their justice.
Jf punctual payments tire ever necessary, they are
pre-eminently so in the case of snch a publica
tion,—purely literary— almost wholly original—
and destitute of the vital aid which newspauers
derive from advertisements.
My all is at stake, in this enterprise - /" *
ventuie, stimulated indeed by some hop o ’■
mohunent; but founded largely, also uj *1
well warranted expectation of rallying So *>
talents and Southern public spirit, arou 1
diooping and well nigh prostrate banner off &&
ernvLiteratiire. Since it has now acquired
upon Southern justice— can if be, that the «r-i
urged in vain ?
Subscribers then, who are in arrears—an 1 le>
them remember, that payment is due in
will, 1 trust, without delay, transmit the nittints
tney owe to me, at Richmond, by mail, at my
risk and cost; faking proper evidence of the fee
atnd date of mailing; and retaining a memolKi
dum of each note sent.
