tlie Science of Medicioe---a doctrine which,
though vehemently opposed by many of the fa
culty, [of which lie is a valuable member,! he

of which are suspended the lives of million • ofour

This illustrious benefactor cfman is also enti
tled to our unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude
of a world, for the invention of his MATCH
LESS SANATIVE,—whose healing Cat rnav
justly claim for it such a title, since it has so
signally triumphed over our great common ene
my both ic the first and
fast stages,---a medicine which Las throughly fil
led the vacant in the Materia Medina,*! and
thereby proved itself the of Purs
ictAfO^U —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 they
often become the happy instruments of changing
despondency into hope, sickness into health, and
sadness of friends into jovfulness.

GOELICKE’S isa medicine of more value to man
than the vast mines of Austria, or even the united
treasures of ourglohe,—n medicine, which is ob
tained equally from the vegetable, animal and niin
e al ki ngdotns, and thus possesses a three-fold
power—a medicine, which thougn designed as
a remedy for consumption solely, is possessed of
a mysterious influence over many diseases of the
h iiiian system,— a mcdici**®, which begincs to be
valued by Physicans .w} j are daily witnessing
its astonishing cures of many whom they had le
signed to the g'aspof the Insaiiaulk Grave.

A certificate from three members of the
MBDIO.VE HlVOl'iafcHSfCm o-.
Europe.
We, the undersigned, practitioners of medicine
iu Germany are well aware that, by our course,
we may forfeit the friendship of some of the fa
culty, but riot ot its benevolent members, who tire
uninfluenced by selfish motives. Though we
shall refrain lrom an expression of our opinion,
cither ol the soundness or unsounducsß of Dr.
Goelicke’s new doctrine, we are happy toj say
that vve deem his Sanative too valuable not to be
generally known—for what our eyes behold end
our ears hear, we must believe.
We hereby state, that when Dr. Louis Oflfon
Goelicke first came before the German public, ys
the prefende'd 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. But,
on hearing so much said 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 itourbounden duty [even
at tlie expense of our self interest) publicly to ac
knowledge its efficacy in curiug not only eonsump
Don, but other fearful maladies, which we have
heretofore believed to be incurable. Our con
tempt for the discoverer cf this medicine was at
once swallowed up in our utter astonisiiment at
these unexpected results; and, as amends for our
abuse of him, we do frankly confess to tlie world,
that we believe him a philanthropist, who does
honor to the profession, and to our country, which
gave him birth.
1 he recent adoption of this medicine into some
of our European hospitals isa sufficient guaranty
that it performs all its promises. It needed not
our testimony for wherever it is used it is its own
beet witness.

in the case of an elderly gentleman, who was far
gone and wasted away, in CONSUMPTION
and considered PAST RECOVERY BY HIS
J* AMIL\ PHYSIC AN. lie 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, lie ascribes his escape from the very jaws
y" death, and his recovery to health solely to the
•astonishing virtues of the Matchless Sanative.
He is a man possessing a snue property, but sovs

THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR A SINGLE
BOTTLE OR IT, if I COULD NOT PUR
CHASE IT FOR A LESS PRICE. To him
the Sanative is above all value.

The Southern Literary Messenger has now
