YELLOW FEVER CURED
WITHBRANUIIETHtS PILLS.
MR. ARNOLD, who last August boarded with
Mrs. Ward, near the corner of Tchapitolas and :
Girod streets, was attacked with U ellow Fever, and ,
immediately swallowed 15 Fills, and then took 10 Pills
every hour for 7 hours afterwards. During the seven ‘ J
hours they appeared to produce no eflect, but at the .
end of that time a feeling of faintness came over him,
and he thought the last hour of his existence was at j
hand. He then blamed himself for putting faith in
Brandreth’s Pills. He told his nurse if he was deliri
ous, to continue to give more, as he had begun he
made up his mind to continue them, even in the state
he was. Scarcely had he given these orders when he :
raised his hand to his face, and, to use his own expres- \
sion, there were upon it drops of perspiration as i
large as buck shot. He found that he had bro- ‘
ken out into the most profuse perspiration. Almost
immediately the Pills began to take effect, and he de- j
scribes the evacuations as of the most dreadful kind, !
black and putrid to suffocation. The doors and win- I
dows were obliged to be thrown open. He was out of ,
danger within 24 hours of the commencement of the ‘■
attack, and by takingTs Pills night and morning, on
the 4th day he was out, and in 10 days entirely reco
vered.
Tl.is I (Dr. Brandreth) would guarantee would be
the case in ninety cases of A ellow Fever out of a hun
dred, was the above method adopted on the commence
ment.
Dr. Franklin never spoke more truly than when he ;
said a stitch in time,” &c.
Would the people were wise—time may convince.
All fevers are occasioned by the disordered motion ]
of the blood, produced by the humoral serosity harden- j
ing the valves of the vessels. The blood circulates
with greatly increased velocity, and is still increased
by the friction of the globules, or particles which com
pose the mass of fluids. Then it is that the excessive
heat is experienced throughout the whole system ; and
accompanied with great thirst, pains in the head, back,
i kidneys, and in fact a complete prostration of all the
j faculties of the mind as well as body.
Bleeding, calomel and barks are the usual remedies
employed by physicians. What is the consequence?
! Two thirds die and the other third recovers from the
| fever—but—yes, mind that but—but with their blood 1
| overcharged with the very remedies themselves which
’ have been swallowed to dispel the fever. These'geri>- j
| rally depositc in the cavities of the veins and arteries,
] producing most horrid pai.’s—especially in the night,
: when the cured patient is warm in bed—often obliging
; him to rise and apply cold water or some other cold ap-
I plication to ease the excessive pain,ofientimes coughs,
| most obstinate ones, dropsy, consumption, by the re
medies obstructing the lungs, and other debilitating af
; sections lead the poor patient to the tomb after long and
cruel sufferings. j
This may be prevented— can always be prevented,
if purgation is at once resorted to —and after the pa
tient is reduced ever so low there is hope—provided he
perseveres. Hundreds have been prevented from fill
ing an untimely grave by following the advice contain
ed in the following
SHORT SENTENCE:
On the first attack of fever, or any disease, immedi
ately take a large dose of
Brandreth’s Vegetable Universal Pills,
Arid continue to keep up a powerful effect on the
bowels until the fever or pain has entirely ceased.
J These Pills are an assistant of nature,
and afford perfect r• lief whenever any organs of the
body are unhealthy, restoring health and strength by
removing accumulated impurities—otherwise, in simple ‘
language, vitiated humors. This is following i ature— j
this is taking disease out of the body—and no other
way can cure disease but taking it out. It must be
carried away from the body, not merely changed, as is
the case when blue pill or calomel is given, or any of
the numerous mineral medicines. It is in consequence
of the perspiration which arises from the Thompsonian
practice that has brought it into notice—but sweating
is nothing, ompared to purging with Brandreth’s Pills,
in the good effects on the body. One dose of 10 Pills
will remove more bad humors, by the stomach and
bowels, than a dozen vapor baths, on Thompsonian or
other principles could remove. Purging and sweating
is all that is required to cure disease, no matter what
kind —lT CAN BE CURED IN NO OTHER way. BRAN
DRETH’S PILLS are both sudorific and cathartic
—that is, produce both sweating and purging. In
some cases they produce vomiting ; that is only when
the stomach is in such a state of foulness that it cannot
cleanse itself by any other means. They always pro
duce health, because they invariably excite every or
gan to healthy action—in other words, THEY AS
SIST nature to bring about such a state of things as
necessarily causes this desirable result.
No method is so sensible as following Nature.—
Mankind have been long enough out of her path, and
unfortunately after any thing but common sense, and
guided by any whim but reason. Let us abandon,
then, false notions and falser practices—let us endeavor
to resume the path of nature, and be guided by the light
of reason—let us cease to ruin our eyes by gas or can
dle light, and we shall need no opticians—let us cease
doing those things which are contray to the nature of
our bodies, and we shall need no physicians—let us
endeavor to find out what is tia'ure, what a e the laws
that govern her. In this work experience must be our
teacher, ami prejudice must be forever di carded as
our companion.
BRANDRETH'S VEGETABLE UNIVER
SAL PILLS,
May be obtained genuine and pure, of mv Agenf, in
Columbus, Mr. JOHN B. PEABODY, and no where
| else in said city.
Remember , always, that no Druggist is allowed to
sell the GENUINE PILLS.
It is for this cause that so many of them have the
j counterfeits for sale.
j If there is any virtue in the genuine Pills, is it not
I basely criminal to offer the countefeits ? and if there is
no virtue in them, (which most of them believe tobe the
fact,) are their motives not equally unworthy in offer
ing to the public any medicine under the name of Bran
dreth ? Let every unprejudiced mind judge between
us. BENJAMIN BRANDRETH, M. D.

BRENTLINGER’S
VEGETABLE ALTERATIVE
SYRUP.
TO all persons afflicted with Dyspepsia, Indi
gestion, Bilious Affections, Headach, Dysen
tery, Diarrhoea, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Numbness in
various parts of the body, Mercurial Diseases, Scro
fula and King’s Evil in all their forms, Leprosy, White
Swelling, Salt Rheum, Prickley Heat, Eruptions in
the skin, Itch, Ulcers, Cancers, Old Ulcerated Legs,
Syphilitic Affections, Tetters, St. Anthony’s Fite,
Pimples in the Face, Tumors, &c. &c. arising from a
deranged state of the digestive organs, or the impurity
of the Blood, the VEGETABLE ALTERATIVE
SYRUP is recommended as a safe and efficacious re
medy.
| It is an established fact, that the above enumerated
lingering diseases, with many others, arise from a dis
orded state of the stomach, an impurity of the Bloou,
or the mercury administered for some previous form of
disease remaining in the system.
This Syrup is composed entirely of Vegetables in a
highly concentrated state, and acts on the system by
giving a correct tone to the digestive powers, promot
ing the healthy secretions of the body, securing the na
tural action of the intestinal passage, and at the same
time cleansing and purifying the Blood, and giving it a
free and healthy circulation.
It is a complete substitute for mercury in all cases in
which that mineral is given in the old practice, and
being a vegetable preparation, is certainly far prefera
ble, inasmuch as it passes ofT leaving the system en
tirely free, whilst mercury fastens upon the bones and
solids, thereby rendering vast numbers feeble and de
bilitated for life.
The cathartic and tonic properties of the Vegetable
Alterative Syrup are, moreover, so happily combined
that, whilst the former is performing its duty in carry
ing away the vitiated humors from the various parts of
the body, the latter keeps up the strength of the patient
even though it be continued for months, thus possess
ing an important advantage over all other medicines of
that class. No alteration in diet is required, except to
abstain from salt meats, and no evil effects need be
feared on its account, by exposure to wet or cold.
From long experience, and the many cures which
it has performed under our own observation ifi Vir
; ginia, Ohio and Pennsylvania, where it is now being
used to a verv great extent, we feel warranted in re
; commending it to ihe afflicted of Georgia, Alabama,
Florida, and the South generally, as a most valuable
medicine.
Numerous certificates could be given, but we consi
der such things as only calculated to swell an adver
tisement without giving, in our humble opinion, much
satisfaction to the public. This Syrup owes its celeb,
rity to its own merits.
Directions for use accompany each bottle, signed by
the proprietor in his own hand.

“ Washington, 24th Jan., 1835.
“ Will you have the goodness to send me a dozen of
the Indian’s Panacea ? lam requested by one of the |
party of the delegation of Cherokee Jnd ans to procure I

“ Montgomery, Ala., 22d Ocl., 1835.
“ Having nearly closed the lot sent [l2 dozen] we I
will thank you to send us 24 dozen more by first vessel i

; diately, the demand being so great we shall be out be
fore we shall receive next shipment.
“ WOODRUFF & WATKINS.”
“ New Orleans, 20th April, 1837.
“ Your last shipment of 50 dozen has come to hand,
i which is considered sufficient for the season. As my
orders show, the sale of your Panacea is fast increasing
in this part of the country, and I must say it gives ge
: neral satisfaction. H. BONNABEL.”
“ Natches, Miss.. 28th Dec., 1837.
i “ Mr. D. G. Haviland. Sir—lt is with pleasure we
give the opinion entertained of the Indian’s Panacea in
this city and vicinity, and can say, whatever its combi
nation, we know of no medicine introduced to public
patronage so worthy of the high charac’er it has sus
tained here. We are acquainted with persons who
have thoroughly tried it in Chronic diseases, Scrofula
and Mercurial affections, with entire success, and take
; great pleasure in forwarding, at their request, the certi
ficates of cure of several of them. It has been pre
, scribed by the faculty in many cases, meeting their en
; tire approbation ; and, indeed, such is its popularity,
j we have calls for no other Panacea.
“ McGRAW & PULLTNG,”
Many more letters of similar purport are at hand,
but we will close with extracts from a letter from Dr.
Witherspoon, giving a case of a member of the Legis
: lature of South Carolina.
“ Sumterville, S. C., 24th Aug., 1537.
“ The gentleman in this village whom the Imlian’s
Panacea cured, had Mercurial diseases, and not Rheu
matism. However, the cure it effected with him was
I most obvious and remarkable, and, beyond all doubt, it
preserved the life of one of our most useful citizens.
Asa consequence, it has acquired great celebrity in this
section of the State. A great deal is used, and many
are using it for diseases in which it is not at all appli
cable, by which means it will no doubt, after a while,
fall into disrepute. J. B. WITHERSPOON.”

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
TO THOSE SUFFERING WITH
Cholera Morbus, Diarrhata, Summ.~ Complaint, Co
lics, Cramps and Spasms.
THE utility of R. S. BERNARD’S Remedy for
Cholera has ceased to be a problem. Experi
i ence,the only sure foundation of Medicinal, as of all
I other kinds of knowledge, has effectually established
what the judicious Composition of the Remedy, its
admirable adaptation to the various indications which
occur in the course of those diseases of the stomach,
liver and bowels, usually designated as Cholera Com
plaints, led the proprietor to anticipate from the first. Os
all experience, however, t hat of men competent to dis
criminate accurately and to- decide justly upon the
effects of a medicine, must be the best; and with such
in its favor, even the most fastidious in these matters
must lay aside their prejudices.
The indications of cure are—to tranquilize the sto
mach and bowels; to relieve the excessive puking and
purging; to allay the increased irritability of the intes
tines, giving rise to increased peristaltic motion; to
relieve that rheumatic state of the bowels which is of
ten the attendant of chronic cases, sometimes accom
panied with inflammation and ulceration; to overcoms
the spasms, equalize the circulation, andrestore warmth
to*the remove congestion of the internal or
gans, and to relieve the morbid irritability of the brain
and nervous system; —all of which has been effected by
the use of Bernard’s Remedy for Cholera, certificates
of which have been given at various times, of its effi
cacy in cases widely different in their origin and pro
i gross from each other.
j idj 2 * Look to the certificates; they arts the best
! evidence that can be given.
The commendations which several liberal and intel
! ligent Physicians have bestowed upon the Remedy,
! have already been published; and the subscriber has
I now the. gratification of adding the following from a
‘j most respectable pratising physician of Somerton.Va.

! nently serviceable, I will say altogether competent to
! cure the diseases for which it is recommended. I feel
no hesitation, therefore, in declaring that for the treat
ment of such disorders, I shall regularly dispense your
Remedy from my office, and would recommend it to be
kept in all families liable to these dangerous attacks.
You may use this certificate as you will.

This certificate was given to my agent, E. P. Nash,
of Petersburg, and for its importance notice Mr. Nash’s
remarks:
“ As agent for Bernard’s Cholera and Diarrhoea Me
dicine, I cal the attention of the public to the certificate
below from one of the mo it respectable gentlemen in
the Sta:e; and I particularly call their attention to the
one given by a gentleman in this town— and if it were
necessary, I could produce a half dozen others from
Petersburg, who have tried the medicine within two
weeks past. EDW. P. NASH.
Mr. Edward P. Nash, Agent for Bernard’s Cholera
Medicine.
Dear Sir: I feel it a duty I owe to the proprietor ot
the above medicine, as well as the public generally, to
inform you that the bottle of Cholera mixture which
I bought at your store a few evenings since, has entire
ly cured me of a severe Diarrhoea. The cure was
effected in taking only two doses; and as I had tried
many other remedies without the least effect, I am fully
of the opinion that the medicine here alluded to is every j
thing that it is said to be.
JAS. S. WALLACE, Petersburg, Va.
Who will neglect to supply themselves with Ber- !
nard’s Remedy for Cholera, when it is so fully proven j
to he efficacious m all the diseases for which it is re- !
commended? In no case has it failed to cure the most
obstinate attacks of summer complaint madeupon chil
dren. In one. instance a permanent cure was effected
upon a child in this place after the summer complaint
had put it (as thought by the doctors) beyond the pow
er of medicine to relieve. It was such an aggravated
case that the child had, in the course of one day and
night, sixty-three evacuations from the bowels. Yet
one bottle proved a sovereign remedy.
Extract from one of my agents —
Petersburg, June 4,1836.
Mr. R. S. Bernard—Dear Sir: Your Cholera Me
dicine is highly thought of in Petersburg and adjacent
counties; I have never sold a bottle out ol the whole
that I have sold which has not, so far as I could ascer
tain, proved effectual in curiDg; I have never had a
complaint—but many commendations of its good ef
fects have been given me. You may, .as far as my
judgment and the good sense of the many ts whom I
have sold it goes, recommend it highly to any and all
who may wish sucli medicine. I shall soon be in want
of more. Respectfully,
E. P. NASH, Agent for Petersburg, Va.
From my Agent, Mr. John Hare, of Memphis, Tcnn.,
formerly of Murfreysboro’, N. C.
Memphis , July 7, 1836.
Mr. R. S. Bernard—Dear Sin After selling a good
deal of your medicine for Cholera, wi;h entire satisfac
tion, I called on a few of our most respectable citizens !
to get, if possible, some evidence of the efficacy of said j
medicine, and I am glad to enclose you some certifi- ;
cates, which I am confident will add much to the proof;
already obtained. Having used your medicine in my j
own family, for some most violent attacks of Cholera
and Dianhcea, I take pleasure in adding my certificate, j
inasmuch as I consider it the most valuable preparation !
ever made. If my name is of any service, you may use j
it in any way you think best, and I shall at all £imes ]
feel proud to think that I have been called on to testify j
to the many cures performed by your medicine. I am
daily distributing it over this district, and have sent
some to Arkansas, where it has been tried with com
plete success. Your friend, J. HARE.
To prevent imposition, a sac simi e of my name will
be attached to each bottle.

TIIE PUBLIC BLESSING which is now j
universally admitted to exisit in PETERS’!
VEGETABLE PILLS, is every day demonstrated i
by their astonishing efficacy in all the cases which they !
are announced to cure. This is no deceptive or mer- j
cenary boast, but a fact undeniably proved by ntimerons i
certificates gratuitously and voluntarily offered to the j
proprietor, who, being a regular Physician, and having j
practiced his profession for many years in different !
climates, is enabled to offer to the afflicted invalid a j
medicine, on the effects of which he is willing to risk
his reputation.
He does not pretend that they are a positive cure,
or even beneficial in every complaint; but he most
positively believes that in every disease where a cathar
tic or an aperient medicine is needed, they will be found
superior to any of those drastic purgative medicines
which are so much puffed in the public prints as puri
fiers of the blood. When taken according to the direc
tions accompanying them, ihey are highly beneficial in
the prevention and cure of Billions Fever, Fever and
Ague, Dvspepsia. Liver Complaints. Sick Headache, !
Jaundice, Asthma. Dropsy. Rheumatism, Enlargement ;
of the Spleen. Piles, Colic, Female Obstructions. !
Heartburn. Nausea, Furred Tongue, Distension of i
the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarxhaa, Flatu- 1
lencft, Habitual Costircnees, Loss 6f .Appetite, Blotch
ed or Sallow Complexion, and in all cases ot Torpo
of the Bowels where a cathartic or aperient is neededr
Tltvy are exceedingly mild in their operation, producing
neither nausea griping nor dellity t
Wherever these Pills have been once introduced
nto a family, they become a standing remedy, and are
called for again and again, which is sufficient proot of
their good qualities.
Pei haps no article of the kind has ever been offereo
to the public supported by testimonials of a character so
decisive, from sources as respectable, or that has given
more universal satisfaction.
They have the testimony of the whole medical pro
fession in their favor, while not a single ease of ill con
sequences or inefficiency can be allcdged against them.
Hundreds and thousands bless the day li.ey became
acquainted with Peters’ Vegetable 1 ills, which, :u
consequence of their extraordinary goodness, have at
tained a popularity unprecedented in the history ot
medicine. . .
The very circumstance alone that / hystetans, in
every part of the Union, (but more especially in the
Southern where they have long been in use,)
are making free use of them in their practice, speaks
volumes in their praise. Add to this fact, that all who
use invariably recommend them to their friends, and
the testimony in their favor is almost irresistible. AJ
an Anii-bilions remedy, and to prevent Cestivemss,
they have no rival. One fifty cent box will establish
their character, and prove that there is truth even in an
advertisement.

Institution for the cure of obstinate diseases by fhcarftf

Clarksville, Mecklenburg co. Ya. Feb. 7, 1837. ,
Dear Sir—l embrace the opportunity ol
1 to you my gratification at the success which has attend*
i ed the administration of your valuable Pills in thirr
] section of country. It is a common fault with thus?
| who compound and vend patent medicines to say lot .
much in their favor, but from what I have seen ot the
I effect of your pills I do not think they have, as yet j
received unmerited praise. Six months ago they were
almost entirely unknown in this part of “\ irginia; they
are now the most popular pills we have. In dyspepsia
and sick headache, derangement of the biliary organa,
and obstinate constipation of the bowels, 1 know of no
aperient more prompt and efficacious.
Their mildness and certainty of action render them
a safe and efficient purgative for weakly individuals,’
and may be given at all times without any of those
injurious consequences that frequently result from the
long continued use of calomel or blue pills. On the
whole, 1 consider them a valuable discovery.
Very respectfuliv,

CiiAßi.oTTr, N. C. Jan. Ist, 1837.
Dear Sir—l have made frequent use of your Pills in
the incipient stage of Bilious Fever and obstinate Con
stipation of the Bowels; also in the Enlargement of the
Spleen, Chronic diseases of the Liver, Sick Headache,
General Debility, and many other diseases, and in all
cases have found them to give relief.

Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills in my practice for the
last twelve months, I take pleasure in giving my testi
mony of their good effects in cases of Dyspepsia, Siclr
Headache. Bilious Fevers, and other diseases produced
by inactivity of the liver.
Tney are a safe and mild aperient, being the best’
article of the kind I have ever used.

GALLIGHAN’S VEGETABLE FEVEIt
AND AGUE PILLS,
at Norton’s auction and pill store.
For genuine, call as above.
In the composition of nearly all the patent, and per
haps popular, medicines now in use for b EVER and
AGUE, there is reason to believe that, in combination
with several inert simples, some cue poweiful article
is employed, to which their etticacy is solely indebted.
Such, for instance, are arsenic, antimony , and mercury r
in the.r variety of forms—arlich s wed known to be
deadly poisons, and which no person in his sober senses
would venture to make use of, unless presriibed by a
skilful physician. The public arc assured, however,
that this is not the case w ith Gallighan’s Pills. On
the contrary, the proprietors solemnly pledge tin in
selves’ that they do not contain a particle of these or
other minerals in any shape of form, but are composed
entirely of simple vegetable substances, which, either
separately or combined, and without regard to sex or
age, arts perfectly harmless in their effects upon the hu
man system.
Gallighan’s Pills, though useful for all diseases’
which originate in a superabundant collection of bile in
the stomach, are more particularly intended for Fever’
and Ague. In the first place they cleanse, strength
en, awl give tone’ to the stomach and bowels, and cre
ate anew and healthy action throughout the system.
1 They produce a natural and permanent appetite.—
They defend the system against new or subsequent
attacks of the disease. They remove all obstructions
lof the liver and other organs. They assist the various
j operations of nature, by cleansing the system of all vi
tiated, corr'iot and acrid humors, and thus invigorate
and reanimate the whole frame. Possessing a purga
tive quality, they cannot remain in the bowels to prt -
duce sucli othor disease'’ n ”
treatment or Fever and Ague. They are composed
entirely of vegetable matter, and may be taken by per
sons of both sexes and of all ages, without the least,
danger of unpleasant consequences. In fine, the pub
lic are assured that Gallighan’s Fills pos. tss those in-’
estimable virtues which are requisite not only to ar- r
rest, but to eradicate and destroy, the last seeds of this
most distressing malady of the human family.
The Fever and Ague assumes a variety of forms
but as the most of them are generally well known, it is
deemed unnecessary here to describe them. There is
one, however, deserving of notice, which prevails to*
some extent in low, marshy countries, anil which, ii>
some respects, bears a striking resemblance to Dvs
pepsia. Under this form, it is often the case that per-’
sons labor for weeks, months, and even years, without
knowffig precisely what ails them, and who, if told
their disease was Fever and Ague, would contrive
they had been imposed upon. It is to such that these
pills are recommended, and to assist them in acquiring
a correct knowledge of their complaint—which should
always be done before seeking a remedy—the follow
ing are presented as some of the symptoms which in
variably attend this form of the disease :—inward fe
vers, unaccomrrpanied by chills; cold, and night
sweats; irregular appetite'; thirst; low spirits ; con
fusion of the mind ; languor ; cold hands and feet; ir
regularity of the bow els ; pressure on the stomach and
abdomen after eating; changes in the color of the
urine ; drowsiness ; disagreeable taste ; headache ;
dizziness ; enlargement of the spleen ; costivcncss ;
nausea ; flatulency and debility.
Practitioners of physic, planters, traders, overseers
of plantations, seamen, and families, residing in or visit
ing low countries or warm climates, ought constantly to
be supplied with these invaluable Pills.
DIRECTIONS.—To derive the greatest possible
benefit from these Pills, it is necessary that the direr,
lions should be carefully followed. Commence while
the fever is off with taking three pills, and afterwards
repeat every two hours with one pill, until a decided
effect has been produced upon the liowels, which will
generally take place after six have been taken, sojne
persons requiring more and some less ; afterwards con
tinue taking the pills, one at a dose, three times a day,
half an hour before meals.
In some cases three pills a day may be too many,
and in others not a sufficient number to keep the bow
els ; moderately hose. It is important to keep this object
constantly in view. The person taking them, there
fore, must exercise his judgment, and deviate from the
above directions accordingly. Children 8 years old
must commence by taking one pill and repealing with
half a pill, according to the directions given for adults.
To children under this age the dose must he propor
tionally smaller.
In all obstinate cases, or causes of long standing, it
is necessary, to effect a per’ect cure of the disease,
that more than one box of the pills should be taken.
N. B.—Be particular to keep the box covered after
using the pills. Dec. 21.46tf
