ADDRESS To AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Fellow Citizens;-At n time like the present,
when country is literally flooded with nosrums
brought from foreign chimes, you may perhaps
think it an act Of temerity in to offer can
dida,e for your favor and patronage, Medicine
which is strictly AMERICAN. Common sense,
however, teaches us, that those he bs which spring
spontaneously from native soil, must be better
adapted to constitutions than foreign medicines
however useful the latter may have been IN the
countries to which they belong The climate OF the
United States stands unrivalled for the production
OF med cinal plants, and very little investigation
