N BY many empires OF The present day, that me-
delnc will cure all diseases, not, and be
true; and he who asserts it, is either fool or an -
p1stOr But it is fact 'monstrabl, by experience
that combinations Of medicine may be formed from The
VEGETABLE KINGDOM, that will act universally on
the system, when taken seasonaby and in jucious pro
portions to in out OF TELL all diseases
within the reach and power of medicine.
| From the well known and established reputation of
Cnfonet, it has long been employed by the empire,
and scientific physician, as one of the most powerful
agents for the removal of disease. By the former al.
most every land has been deluged with nostrums that
i-r authors claimed specifics in every disease incl
dent TO the human family. The folly of these preten
sons needs comment, for accurate chemical invest-
CATION has shown that the base of most of the Panaceas
Catholieons &c. which have been trunpetted before
the community, with m:ch assurance, is Calynel or
mercury in some iorin. Now il this potent articce
even in the hands the most sku physician frequent

and entirely beyond the control OF art; undermining ill.,

that its use is confined for any considerable time in

must choose the least OF two evils: they know other
article that will toil iuer, remove obstruu-
ton, and set in free action the whole glanuar system,
aud it being indspens,bly necessary to do this, they
continue its use, notwithstanding the evil consequences
which follow
They have long desired and sought an article tina,
would produce the good effects of this drug, without
suectire the patient to its deete,1ous results Sucl,
esideratun it is believed, has at length been obaineus
