Harrison's Specific Ointment.

The great celebrity of this unrvalled Compost
ton-especially in the Northern StateS--leaves
the proprietor but little need to say any thing in
It's favor; for it has been generally conceded to it,
that II is beyond all comparison the best remedy
tor external complaints that has ever been discov-
cred. Indeed the speed and certainty of its oper-
ations have the appearance Of miracles: as ulcers
wounds Corns, fever sores, chilblainS white swell
linCs, biles, piles, spider and snake bites &c
Immediately yield 10 IFS apparently super human
influence. Thus if properly applied it will remove
an inveteraie, corn or break and heal bile in five
DAYS viii allav and perfectly cure an ulcer in two
weeks; and the most desperate cases of white
swelling that can be imagined, have been destroyed
by 1t IN less Than two months. In the biles of
poisonous reptiles its efficacy is truly surprising;
ard even in the bite of rabid dog, for if applied
IN time, It's powers of attraction are so wonderful
that they viii at once arrest the poison and thus
prevent il from pervading the system. 1t is like
wise greatly superior 10 any medicine heretofore
discovered for the chafed backs and limbs of horses
for letters, ring worms, chspped hps,-and in
short for every external bodily evil that may fall
10 the lot Of man or beast.
The proprietor has received at least thousand
certificates and other documents, in favor of his
"SDeclfc Ointment upwards hundred of which
were written by respectable members Of the Med
lcaI Faculty and in selecting from this pile the
following samples, he was governed more by their
hreyty, than their contents, as they all breath ths
same spirit OF eulogy and satisfaction

StagnatiOn Of the Blood.

The repeated changes in the atmosphere, by act
ing as they do upon the consistence and quality OF
the blood, give occasion for the most fatal and ma
hgnant disorders. The blood from state of health
becomes stagnant and is plunged into state of
corruption.
Thus it loses its purity: its circulation is impe-
ded; the channels Of life clogged; the 6o,oeLs be-
come cOStaUe, and if not an immediate attack of
some malignant fever, headache, nausea, loss of
appetite, and general debility of the whole frame
are sure to follow
1t requires the tempest and the tornado to bring
about state of purity in the ocean, when its wa
tiers become stagnant; and it will require repeat
ed evacuation by the stomach and bowels before
the blood can be relieved of its accumulated i'm
purity.
BramdretHs Vegetable Universal Pills,
should be taken, then there will be no danger be-
cause they purge from the stomach and bowels
these humors which are the cause of stagnation
cleanse the blood from all impurities, remove every
cause Of pain or aceaknesS and preserve the consti-
tuition in state of HEALTH and vIGuR that causual
changes cannot effect

regard to your pills am firmly persuaded that
they deserve far more praise than you seem IN
clined to give them. Six months ago they were
scarcely known here, and yet at present there is
no other medicine that can compare with them in
popularity. In Dyspepsia Sick Headache, de-
rangement of the Biliary organs, and obstinate
constipation OF the bowels, know of no aperient
more prompt and eficacious; and have had con-
siderable experience in all these complaints
| would add that their mildness and certainty of
action render them safe and efficient purgative
for weekly individuals; and that they may be CIV
en- at all times without apprehension of any OF
those injurious consequences which so frequently
attend the application of caomel, or blue pill On
the whole consider your Vegetable Pills an in
