INTRODUCTION OF
Professor James SlcClintock’s
CELEBRATED
Family Medicines.
‘QgL.This is to certify , that I have placed in Ike hand of Messrs
A. Cushman&c Cos , Mew York, the receipts of my “Family Med
icines ,” with, my full authority to prepare and ofitr them fur pop
ular use.
In securing- the co operation of Mr. Alexander Cushman, who
is a thoroughly educated Chemist and practical Apothecary of
many years’ experience, lam enabled to assure the public that
they will beprepared in the best , purest ana most perfect form ,
regardless of expense.
JAMES McCLINTOCK, M. D., Late Professor of An
atomy and Surgery in the Pniladelphia College of Medicine
and Acting Protessor of Midwifery: one of tne Consulting
Physicians of the Philadelphia Hospital, Bloeckly; laie
member ot the National Medical association: M< mbei of the
Philadelphia Medical Society; member of the Medico-Chir
urgical College of Phi.adelphia; tormerly 1 resident and
Protessor of Anatomy and Surgery in Castleton Medical
Code e Vermont; and also lute Professor of Anatomy and
Physiology in Berkshire Medical Institution, Mass &c.&c.
Important to Consumptives,
And all who are afflicted with Bronchitis , or weakness of the
Lungs. Dr McClintock’s Pectoral Syrup is recommended
as one of the best and safest remedies ever used for Bronchitis,
Consumption and all diseases of the Lungs and .flit Passages.
For any of these forms of disease showing themselves in ( ough,
Tickling of the ‘J hr oat, Hcnse of ‘J is fitness in the Throat or
Chest, Spitting of Blood, Difficulty of Breathing, Hoarseness or
Loss of Voice, hectic Fever, Might Sweats, 4c., this SYRUP
has been used with unbounded success for many years; it con
tains no opium, morphine or antimony, which injvri us drugs
form thebasis of almost all the quack remedies tor lung com.
plaints.
The Great Peculiarity
of Dr. Me Clin lock's Pectoral Syrup, is that in all chronic dis
eases of the throat and lungs, it may be taken by the most delicate
patient with perfect safety. It contains no injurious drugs,like
the common remedies used for pectoral complaints, lt is pleis
ant to the palate, produces no nausea or debility, but may be taken
freely and constunth, with the cer'ain result of purifying the
bl od, strengening the stomach, and renovating the entire system
while healing and soothing the irritated organs , and producing
gradually a perfact cure.
Price in'pint bottles *1; six bottles for *5. Full directions ac
companying each bottle.
McClintock’s cold and cough Mixture.
Colds and recent C ougks, especially if accompanied by fever or
inf.ammatory excitement, require a remedy different in character
from the Pectoral byrap, which is so valuable in chronic com
plaints. ‘The Cold and Cough Mixture is precisely the cure for
such recent coughs, cold and irritation of the throat and lungs.
It is especially valuable for children; no family in our changeable
climate , should be -without this efficient remedy, which if taken on
thefirst symptoms of cold , would prevent many an attack of
Bronchitis, and a fatal issue in consumption.
Mo Laudanum or preparation of Opium, in any shape in this
syrup. Price per bottle fib cents.
Purifying the Ilood.
The following, from the Mew York Tribune, will doubtless be
very seasonable to all who seek not only to preserve their health,
but to guard against all possible contingences which threaten to
destroy it : /-
“ We, would call special attention to the importance of purifying
the blood, Mothing is so prevalent as a gross and sluggish state
of the blood. We have no hesitation in recommending to those
who would preserve tkeir health, a free use of the best ‘purifying
medicine known to modern medical science, viz;
Dr. McClintock’s Tonic Alterative Syrup*
Thi3 remedy is not. only delightful to the taste, but perfectly
safe and rapid in its effects. It stimulates the liver and other
glands to natural action , gives tone and new vigor to all the func
tions, and enables them to throw off all morbid and unhealthy ac
cumulations
During the extensive practice of Professor McClintock, one
of the most celebrated Physicians in Philadelphia , thousands of
cases of Scrofula. Erysipelas, Scurvey, Salt Rheum, Tetter ,
Skin diseases of all kinds, Ulcers, Cancers. Pimples, Boils and
Rheumatism, together with Syphilitic and Mercurial diseases in
all stages were cured by the free use of Dr,McClintock’s Tonic Al
terative Syrup. For children it is perfectly safe, and from its
pleasant taste can be easily given. ‘Those who are troubled with
any of the above complaints, should take it regularly , Spring and
Fall. Price $t in large bottles. Six bottles *5.
TREATMENT OF DYSPEPSIA.
Our National Disease.
Feeble or Imberfect Digestion or Dyspepsia , in some of its
forms, is truly the Mational Disease of America. It caases, in
directly, three-fourths of the sickness common to this climate. It
causes impure Blood, irritations an I acrid Humors in the Stom
ach, Liver, Bowels and Glands, and the system thus poisoned be
comes apt ey to an. endless train of evil symptoms, of which the
following are a few, viz: Headache, Giddiness, Mcrvousntss,
Low spirits, Dimness of Vision, with. Mote, Speck or IVebs be
fore the Eyes, Itching of the Hostrils, Dullness of hearing, and
Kinging or I rumming in the Bars, Bad taste in the Mouth,
Tightness or Weight about the Chest , Difficulty of Breathing ,
Sense of suffocation inlying down or ascending stairs, Palpita
tion or uneasy feeling about the Heart, Irregular or deficient Ap
petite, sense of sinking at the hea-l, sinking ot the Stomach, Ac
ridity, Heartburn, pain or fullness in the Abdomen, Costiveness ,
6lc. Some of these symptoms alway appear in Dyspepsia. They
are often mistaken for, and treated as other diseases. Their
main seat and source, however, is the Stomach, and a deranged
condition of the digestive f unctions . To meet and overcome those
symptoms radically, and restore perfect health and vigor to the
systtm, a safe and certain remedy is found combining all the most
valuable ingredients offered by the vegetable Kingdom, in Dr.
McCLIMTUCK’s Jj Y PEPTIC ELIXIR. Its daily use
would be a blessing to thousands who suffer from the bane of
weakness. As the prescription of a leading physician, it can be
used with confidence by all. Price in large bottles, *l.
An Universal Pill.
Dr. Vegetable Purgative Pills, though not war
ranted to cure all diseases, are a specific against the numerous
disorders that arise from Costiveness, and Costiveness is the bane
of life to thousands; giving rise as it does to Headache, Appo
plexy. Impure Blood. Mcrvousness,Low Spirits. Lassitude, Pains
in the Bowels and elsewhere, and other spmptoms to nu merous to
mention. < ostiveness ‘silt cause or aggravate almost every
known disease, therefore the Pill best adapted to cure this danger
ous habit is entitled to the boasted name of an Universal Pill
Those who ore willing to try a scientific medicine, safe, certain,
mild and thorough in its action, yet operating without pain, should
use freely Dr. McClintock's Vegetable Purgative Pills. Price
twenty five cents per box.
Rheumatism and Neuralgia.
These excruciating diseases are radically cursd by taking Dr.
McClintock's RHEUMATIC MIXIUTE in doses of a tea
spoonful three times a day. We have seen the worst cases rtlieve.d
by it in twenty-four hours. For external use we have never known
so powerful and penetrating an application as Dr. McClinlock's
KH h. UMA TIC LIM/MEMT. For swelled limbs, bruises,
internal pains, cramps, chilblains, stiff joints, toothache, and oth
er p -infill complaints, where we have seen it tried, it acts with
magical effect. These remedies ore sold at 50 cents per bottle.
Have you the Ague!
If so do not injure your Constitution by resorting to the com
mon cures in use. /t en very learned physicians are in the habit
of prescribing Quinine, Arsenic, Blue Pills, and other powerful
drugs, which often do more harm, than good, even if they stop the
chills. On the contrary, the more and of iencr you take
Dr MclT.intock’s Flyer and Aguk s-pkcific, the stronger
will your constitution become . and the better your appetite and the
via-or of the whole systtw. It is eminently an articlethat CAM
ify TaKFM WITHOUT FEAb! and withal it has never fail
ed to cure all forms of Fever and Ague Intermittent Fever, Bil
lious Fever , Panama or Chagres Fever, Dumb Ague, bzc. Price
One Dollar per Bottle.
Whooping Cough Cured.
This distressing disease is thoroughly and quickly cured by Dr
Me Clint ock's Asthma and YVhooping • ough Remedy. It con
tains no op W77t and can be given to children with perfect sajtty.
A few drops at bed time quiet the cough all night, and a few do
ses cure entirely.
Instant Belief fom Pain.
Mo person need suffer from Toothache, Headache, Meuralgia or
Rheumatic pains. Colic, Chilblains, Pleurisy or Stitcnes m the
Hide, Poin in the Back, side, limbs, bowels , bladder, or in any
part of the body, who will apply to Dr. Mo Ch nlock's A MOD YME
.MIX TURF. Its effect is like magic—producing immediate ease
and quiet, refreshing sleep, even in cases of the most excruciating
sufftnng. Every j amity should be provided with a bottle, Price
Fifty Cents. ,
Dysentery and Diarrhoea.
These severe diseases are now prevalent in various portsof the
country. Then may be wholly prevented, and in the beginning
promptly checked, by Dr. McClintock's DJARRHCEA COR—
DIA 1., one of the most astonishing specifics fr all Bowel Com
•daivts r ver discovered. Thousands of cures have been made du
ring the past summer, and many lives saved by this medicine—so
simple und cheap that every family can procure it. Price twcr.ty
five cents and fifty cents per botile.

The Southern Man.
THE Rev. VVm. H. Milburn, recently delivered a lecture be
fore the New Yorh .-Ueicautile Library Association on “The
Southern Man.” YVe annex aomeextracts which both forlheir
fidelity and beauty will be read with interest.
YY'here the summer lengthens itself into nine continuous
months, where tne day is delicious and the night cooland spicy,
the Southern man grows up a noble specimen of the physical
man, endowed with nervous vitality, for he is accustomeu Irons
his earliesi years to the most active exercises, engaged in all the
at hletic sports ot youth on fool and horseback, in the forest and
and the held ; used to the pistol and the rifle, and the chase.—
Yet in every motion there is a degree ol lassitude,surprising to
those who understand not the effect ol his clime, and which yet
imparts a dearee of ease, of graceful elegance, rarely possessed
excep. by an inhabitant ol a warm southern climate.
In the tone, glorious noontides, swinging luxuriously in his
haminot k, he inhales delicious airs, buiiad<.n,alas ! with death;
they have ou his cheek the marks ol his origin, and the tale is
soon told that tqe liver of the southern man is altogether out ol
order. This ie a most magnificent hint,and the tact wascontem
plated by the Greeks who made the word “melancholy,” which
means, by etymology, “a black or disordered liver.”
YVe fully agree with thegifted author of the above ex tract, and
are happy to call tte attention of those having a diseased liver,
or any of those diseased socommom to a Southern climate, to
to Hampton’s Vegetable Tincture the great invigorator of the
system; by its use all suffering from lassitude and weakness be
comes robust and full of energy, we offer below some ol the un
solicited testimony,
