AT a time like the present, when our country is

dimes Won may perhaps think it act of onlerity
in us 10 offer as candidate for your avorand pat
ronage a Medicine which is strict AMERICAN
Common sense, however, teaches us, that those
herbs which spring spontaneously from our own
native soil, must be better adapted to our coisiiu
J lions than foqeign medicines, however useful the
hitter may have been in tie countries TO winch

stands unriyaed for the production OF medicinal
plants and very little ins esligation twill suffice %
