Cough Mixture.

DOCT. CHAPMAN'S COUGH MIX
- TURE, for the cure of Diseases of the
Chest or Lungs, as Coughs, Colds I1gluenaaS,
Asthmas, CatarrhS Hectic Fe0erS, Splitting Of
Blood, and other diseased distractions and ir-
ritations of the respiratory system.
The formula for this preparation of medi-
cine is by that eminent medical gentleman, n
Chapman, NJ. D professor of the institutes and
practice of medicine in the University of Penn
sylvania, physician to the Hospital, and Phila-
delphia Almshouse and Infirmary.
The Cough Mixture has been In use several
years, and its success Is so much greater than
any other article in the market that we do not
hesitate to recommend 1t as the most eficacious
medicine forcoughs and affections ofthe lungs
generally, now IN use.
1t is proper to add that the Cough Mixture
does not contain opium in any form whatever,
which is productive of bad effects by continued
use, and too often constitutes the basis of the
popular cough preparations of the day
The number of does each bottle contains is
double to that of any other article offered to the
public, and renders it far less expensive to the
purchaser than any other medicine now in use.

1t will be perceived from the foregoing reso-
lutions, that the rates of boarding and tuition
have been changed from the former prices
| This course the Trustees nave been obliged to
adopt. They have employed competent and
| efficient instructesses, who must be literally
compensated, and the resources Of the institu-
ton are the only fund from which that CON-

has proved insufficient.
The rates which are now established, both
for board and tuition, are such as are adopted
in other and neighboring schools, and are such
as the necessities the College demand.

A certificate from three members Of me Medical
Profession IN Germany IN Europe.
We, the undersigned, practitioners of med
icine in Germany, are well aware that, by our
course, we may forfeit the friendship of some
of the faculty, but not of its benevolent men,
bers, who are uninfuenced by selfish motives.
Though we shall refrain from an expression OF
our opinion, either of the soundness or unsoupd-
ness of DIR. Goelicke's nelc doctrine we are
happy to say that we deem his Sanative too
valuable not to be generally known-for what
our eyes behold and our ears hear, we must be-
lieve.
We hereby state, that when DIR. Louis Offon
Goelicke first came before the German public,
as the pretended discoverer of new doctrine
land new medicine, we held HIM IN the high
! est contempt, believing and openly pronounc-
ING him TO be base lmpostor and the prince
ofquacks. But, on hearing so much said about
! the Sanative, against it and for it, we were in
| duced, from motives of cur osity merely, to
make trial of its reputed virtues upon number
of our most hopeless patients and we now
deem it our bounden duty (even at the ex-
pense of our selfintercst) publicly to acknowl-
edge its efficacy in curing not only consump-
ton, but other fearful maladies, which we have
| heretofore believed to be incurable Our con-
tempt for the discoverer of this medicine was
at once swallowed up in our utter astonish-
ment at these unexpected results; and, as
amends for our abuse of him, we do frankly
confess to the world, that we believe him a
philanthropist, who does honor to the profes.
sion, and to our country, which gave him both

some of our European hospitals is sufficient
