TO SEAMEN

Thousands Of unfortunate seamen are render.
ed useless to their country by the ravages of a
devouring disease, to which they are more sub
ject than any other class of men. The case of
an unfortunate sailor who either embarks in
diseased state, or finds himself so, on long
voyage, must be truly deplorable; and it may
not, perhaps, be improper to suggest the pro-
priety of always including the Catholicon in
the medicine chests Of the Navy and Mer-
chants service, it being sovereign remedy in
the disease alluded to.
TO SOUTHERN PLANTERS.
The Vegetable Catholicon is peculiarly ad.
apted to those diseases which are prevalent a.
mong the colored population of the SOUTH In
that disease which is called Yaws, it is a sure
remedy; single trial of it will convince plant
ers OF its superior efficacy to any remedy Of
similar nature in the United States. They
should never he without it.
