Consumption of the Lungs and Asthma—Accounts
from every part of England of the most extraordi-
nary effects of the prepared Stramonium and the
Oxymel, in the cure of the above diseases, are,daily
received. Mr. CApattKs of Newark-on-Trent,.states,
that these preparations have been of wonderful ser-
vice to a ereat number of people in that neighbour-
hood, who been great sufferers from Asthmatic
Complaints and consumption for several years ; and
Surgeon FsuKn, in the fourth Edition of his " Fami-
liar Treatise" on the Cure and Causes of Asthma and
Consumption, has given such respectable testimonies
of their efficacy, that cannot fail to esttblish their re-
putation as n specific Remedy for diseases of the
Longs. So uniformly successful have these-Reme-
dies proved, «hat not one case can be produced in
which it has not been of the most essential benefit.—

The value of Dr. FREEMAN'S GUTTA SALUTARIS
Ines been so lo:pg proved, that nothing of the present
,day can bear a competition with it, in all the ciao-
rent stages of a certain diase, which it effectually
cut es and erad'eates from the habit, without exciting
the painf;,l feelings and exposure that attends saliva-
tion—without debilitating the constitution in any dr•
gree, or even requiring confinement from business, or
restriction of diet. The radical virtues of these ines-
timable Drops have proved their claim to pabl c ;to-
probation for more than 30 years. In. all the debility
of both sexes they prove a never-failing restorative—
, waether the debility is produced by. too free use of
m,rcury, by illicit pleasures, or the effects of a warm
, climate. To travellers and those going abroad, they
cannot be recommended too strongly, as they will-re-
ceive a safe, speedy, and complete cure, in all old
stubborn gleets, and every weakness that affects •the
bladder and organs of urine. By its efficacy many"
women have bucorhe mothers, who for many years
