TNHHE reputation of these very celebrated veg
III etabe remedies is now unequalled by any
others in this country or in Europe. They are
fully established as the most universal family
medicine now in use, and they will maintain
their preeminent renown by the intrinsic and
comprehensive virtues which acquired it. The
usual modes of puffery would be unworthy Of
them, and is unnecessary. Thousands and tens
of thousands of persons now living in perfectly
restored health, can testify, as thousands have
testified, to their prompt and decided efficacy not
only in all ordinary arrangements of health from
impaired digestive functions, costiveness. bilious
and liver complaints, rheumatic and infdmatory
colds, coughs, nervous weakness loss of appetite,
failure of flesh, headache and impure state of the
blood and other fluids, but also IN intiamatory
and chronic rheumatism, fever and ague, other
intermittent fevers, bronchitis cholic, pleurisy,
consumption, asthma, palpl'ation of the heart,

ALUM VS.. FIRE. We commend the
following TO the attention of parents jus
now, when we scarce Y open paper bu
a melancholy statement OF child burnt
attracts our observation.
The danger and difficulty can very ca
silly be avoided by the use of ALUM.
When clothes are washed they should
be rinsed oul in alum. water-.he solution
should be made ;oIerably strong. 1.-THE
clothing which has been newly washed
should require starch, The alum may be
put in the starch water.
Alum should be used on all occasions:
it renders the clothing fire proof All
clothing about a house or o steamboat
made of cotton should be impregnated
with alum. For instance, bed and wind.
ow curtains, &C., such articles generally
having much ringing about them.
This hinr, if attended 10, will prove a
perfect safety to clothing from fire.
