The reason is then obvious why these base mposters will not tell the component parts of their medicines.

The only origin ality claim is in my peculiar mode of preparation. 1t IS true, il has often been the wonder and amaze ment of my medical brethren, the astonishing cures performed in cases that were considered not within the pow, of medical aid. The whole mystery con sisted in my sng the medcine and this alone to the exclusion of all others, and of the correct principles upon which diseases ought to be treated. It will not however be matter of surprise that such wonderful success should follow the use of this medicine, when state the principles upon which actei.
 2 The human body consists of solids and fluids The
 urmer or long structure is about one-fth. The lat ter or soft part five sixths. Man is linked together by number of organs so beautifully to form per- feet chain in the animal economy One link of which when of order diseased is sufficient to destroy
 
 ed with nlmerable blood vessels called arteries and veins, which have T common centre. The heart for propelng through them the blood or nutritve fluid to all parts of the system, from the heart being furnished with valves which all in direction, the blood can only flow in corresponding course. That it is
 forced by the heart into the arteries and after moist ening the nest minute fbrss, it is received by the veins and brought again to the heart and performs again the round of the body, and in succession. The of the blood, is to receive from the amena- " canal the skin lungs such matters is necessary for the nourshment of man, and to convey 1t to every part of the body for the purpose ofrepairg it's waste and increasing its growth But if any efete, p0ison ous or foreign matter is carried into the blood several organs are provided the iper, kidneys, skin and lungs through which this poison is discharged from the blood in the form of pile, urine, precipitation and pulmonary exhalation. From this bri9f sketch oi mans formation, the intelligent reader easily dersand, how fever and inflammation is produced by
 the suppression of preparation, for il perspiraton be arrested in consequence of cold, the persprble mat ter will mix with the blood and give rise to ntfama- ton In like manner, if the discharge of bile be rested in it's flow from the liver it is taken into the circuaton and gives rise to Jaimdice yellow fever, &c. All diseases have therefore one common origin, (no mpurity of blood for that is only an eect,) but m the obstruction of other of those three great nlcts or common sewers of the body, the bowels,

 h ,,,t, u,u yoI pun know how feal fully and woun- oerG,lly you are constructed-how beautifully the Creator of the universe has provided for your pre- seryaton and existence, independent of your will, then indeed would your admiration of the perfection of his mighty handwork never cease. During sleep, when yor mental faculties are inactive, and your soul appears to be in state of repose, then Is the wise provision and foreknowledge of the author of nature made manifest The heart continues to pour its vital ,tream to every part of the body-te lungs perform heir ofiice-respiration is continued, and the blood decarbonzed-the skin pours out from its myrlads oi pores the poisonous matter of the bood-dgeston continues and the nutritive particulars of OUT food is carried into the blood for tee renovation of man, Were all the organs of the body, therefore, under the control of the will, when we sleep, the heart would cease to pusate death would as necessary ouence follow-the lungs would cease to perform their Characterization and death be the consequence, or perspraon or digestion be interrupted, the effects which would be perpetual disease.
 Reader, you now know perhaps, better than you ev- CT knew before the vast importance of keeping these organs so necessary to life in healthy stale. You will also place less reliance the preensIons of ig- norant and une.lucaled men, especially when they at te,npt to medde with diseases they know nothing of. You will likewise appreciate the services of the skill

 You may always expect fever and -heahh to follow inc stoppage of any the secretons. If except, says Van Swienten, those who perish violent death, and such as are exnguisbed by old age all the rest die of inflammation, caused by suppression of one or the other of the secretions. Pny describes the terror the ls cad of tlsasr ,f,Is altnnG in the Temple of Faunum for the removal al obstlc- tons to the natural outlets of the body. Sickness rberef,rc cannot occur unless one or other of those outlets obstructed, except in disease dependent "f-~- .ifc cqntagion, such as smallpox, measles, creasina the natural secresons When you labor un- der disease no matter of what nature, whether malg- aant or otherwise, and you take Caomel from a physician does he not always ask you, are your bow els fee-is precipitation rees the secretion ofurine abundant--or, if you have pain, what ask you are those enquires but merely to ascertain If the secre tions are duly performed lf they are well perform ed then your doctor puzzled as to the nature of your disease. Ifthey not duly perormed he then removes any obstruction Fms IS the great secret oi our profession, and thus define reputation when we only assist in restoring the natural secre- tons the great difficulty in the practice of nedclnes was the proper application of combination of medl- cina articles calculated to remove obstructons, and act at the time upon all the secretons. There are many valuable articles in the materia medca that will act upon the liver if administered aone but when combined with others to act upon the kidneys, they become neutralized. The concentrated ertract e Sar sapara, Lipsworth, Pieursy, Root, and Lgmlan Vita, as prepared by me, is the only combination ever yet discovered that possessed this inestimabe quality, which has been testified by most medical men in En- gland.
