JOHN STURDIVANT, Ordinary, dsiHßto. INTRODUCTION OF Professor James SlcClintock’s CELEBRATED Family Medicines. ‘QgL.This is to certify , that I have placed in Ike hand of Messrs A.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
