TT has taken three centuries 10 develope the
i powers contained in the herbs which compose
the BRANDRETI Pills. These celebrated Vesc,a-
bic Pills for one hundred years have been made
as they are now made. The American public
have found them deserving OF patronage, and il
has been and is; literally bestowed upon this
medicine. Now, however no sooner is new
advertisement written by the Doctor, but it is at
once cut ont OF The paper, and "Brandreih" taken
out and "Indian" or some othcy name substituted
indicative OF some other medicine, and claiming
some literary thief for its parent Nearly all
the Pills tpresent before The public are made BY
men who for years lived BY counlerfeing The
Brandleth Pills, and have only taken 10 The pre-
sent speculation, since Dr. Brandrelh compelled
them to abandon that method Of jeoparding the
lives of their felow-citzens.
The analysis OF all these pretended rcreioblc
medicines, show very large proportion Of CRUDE
ANTIMoNY in their composition, and it appears
they rely entirely upon this MINERAL POISON, for
the purgative effect. 1t is "a very easy thing 10
detect mineral in pills fany kind.

Take pill supposed to contain mineral, Mace
il on shovel over red clear ire-if there is
mineral in it it will turn red hot, and il the pro-
portion be large, it will not lose its shape. 1t is
thus with the Indian Pills, and many others before
the public. The advantage of these pills, in case
OF war, would be very great as they not only re-
tain their shape, but remain red hot long time
after they are taken from the fire. Even boiling
them with sugar will not change their shape Bill;
you cannot hurt the shape ofthese pills. Ii would
be we'll if they were as harmless 10 those who use
them. The fact is, that repeated doses of antimony
are very injurious, making the patient exceeding

Probably very few OF these pills are sold, so the
injury is not SO great. | have also tried the

ter giving off great quantity of flame The
one may be considered The Medicine Of Life; the
other, Fire-Proof Pill or Messenger OF Death.
This communication, it is hoped, will cause
those persons who are agents for these new, IN
tried, pretended remedies, TO make The above ex-
periments upon them; and, if they sell them af-
ter, not TO forget to label them, POISON.
