What do the public know of the poisonous and de- StrlctIVe ingredients HI panaceas advertised throughout the Union The proprietors of such medicines know too well if the public were aware, that out of every ten pis tiiey have swallowed, eight of them are Mrcs1y, their trade at an end. l have anazed most of the pills, and other medicines advertised throughout the Union and found them contan either corrosi'e s6 imate or CalOmel. The reason is then obvious why these base imposters will not tell the component parts of their medicines They pretend that they have dis covered the philosophers stone and that you may live through countless ages, if you but swallow their medicine. l practice such deception My medl- cine has stood the test of years-it Is recommended by the most eminent of the medical faculty, and what is of more importance than all, candidly and hon estly confess that my medicine is combination of .Sdrsapariila, LperiUort PieUisy Root, LgRum Vaa, and one two other ingredients. The only origin ality claim is in my peculiar mode of preparation. 1t is true, it has often been the wonder and amaze ment of my medical brethren, the astonishing performed in that were considered not within the powe of medical aid. The whole mystery con sisted in my using the medicine, and this alone the exclusion of all others, and of the correct principles upon which diseases ought be treated. Ii will not however be matter of surprise that such wonderful
 success should follow the of this medicine, when
 state the principles upon which l acted ie#
 The human body consists of solids and fluids. The former or long structure is about one-ffth. The lat
 ter or soft part five sixths. Man is linked together by number of organs beautifully to form per- feet chain in the animal economy. One link of which when out of order diseased is sufficient to destroy the harmony of the whole. These organs are furnish ed with nuInerable blood vessels called arteries and veins, which have I common centre. The heart for propeng through them the blood or nuritive fluid to all parts of the system, from the heart being furnished with valves which are all in dlrection the blood can only flow ia corresponding course. That it Is forced by the heart into the arteres and after moist enng the most minute hbrss, it Is received by tine veins and brought again to the heart, and performs again the round of the body, and in succession.
 The use of the blood, is to receive from the amenta " canal the skin lungs such matters is necessary for the noursnent of man, and to convey it to every part of the body for the purpose reparing its waste and increasing its growth. But if any efete, poison ous or foreign matter is carried into the blood several organs are provided as the Eve, kidneys, skin and iuSgs through which this poisonis discharged from the blood in the form of pile, urine, precipitation and pulmonary exhaiation. From this brisf sketch oI mans foIaaton, the intelligent reader can easily un- derstand, how fever and inflammation is produced by the of preparation, for perspiraton be arrested in consequence of cold the perspirble mat ter will mix with the blood and give to ndama- tion. In like manner, if the discharge of bile be rested in it's flow from the liver it is taken into the circulation and gives rise to Jaundice yellow fever &c sAl diseases have therefore common origin, (not ipurity of blood, for that is only eect) but in the obstruction of other of those three great outlets or common sewers of the body, the bowels, skin and kidneys.
 Reader, did you but know how feai fully and woun- dertily you are constructed-how beautifully the Creator of the universe has provided for your pre- servation and existence, independent of your will, then indeed would your admiration of the perfection of his mighty handiwork never cease During sleep, when yolr mental faculties inactive, and your soul appears be in state of repose, then is the wise provision and foreknowledge of the author of made manifest. The heart continues pour its vital stream to every part of the body-the lungs perform their oflce-respration is continued, and the blood decarbonzed-the skin pours out from its inyrads pores the poisonous matter of the blood-digestion continues, and the nutrtive particulars of 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 sleep, the heart would cease to pulsate, death would as necessary conse quence folow-the lungs would cease to perform their sice-suifocation and death be the consequence, or precipitation digestion be interrupted the effects which would be perpetual disease.
 Reader, you now know perhaps, better than you CT knew before the vast importance of keeping these organs so necessary to life in healthy state. You will also place less reliance the pretensions of ig norant and uneducated men, especially when they att tempt to meddle with diseases they know nothing of You will likewise appreciate the services of the skill fal medical practitioner, who has hbored for IS years
 in the study of science through all it's minua, and who now offers for your benefit the result of his long and arduous labors. l ask if you possessed watch of five dollars valpe and it was out of repair would you take it to tinker to have it set in order No you would surely bring it to good watch-maker.- How much more difficult then is the putting in order of the human body when out of repair A watch may stop, it can be set going again-f mans mach- nery once stops, it stops forever. No human power can ever again set 1t in motion. .-f..iI=

If they are well perform ,d then your doctor is puzzled as to the nature of your disease If they duly performed, he then removes any obstruction. This is the great secret of our profession, and thus we define reputation when we only assist nature in restoring the natural secre- ions the great difficulty in the practice of medicines vas the proper application of combination of medi- .inal articles calculated to remove Obsructions, and lct at the same time upon all the secretions.
