GREAT ENGLISH REMEDY

For Coughs, Colds, asthma, and Consumption
TDHE great and only remedy for Colds, Coughs,
i Asthma, and Consumption, is the Hungarian
Balsam sbf Life, discovered by the celebrated Dr.
Buchan of London, England and introduced into
the United States under the immediate superin-
tendence of the inventor.
The extraordinary success Of this medicine in the
curse of pulmonary Diseases warrants the American
agent in soliciting for treatment the WORST POS
SIBLE CASES that can be found in the commu-
nifty; cases that seek relief in vain from any of the
common remedies of the day, and have been given
up by the most distinguished physicians as confirm
ed and incurable. The Hungarian Balsam has
cured, and will cure the most desperate of cases.
Il is no quack nostrum, but standard English
medicine Of known and established efficacy.
I Every family in the United States should be sup
piled with Buchan's Hungarian Balsam of Life, not
only to counteract the consumptiye tendencies Of
the climate, but to be used as preventive medicine
in all cases of Colds, Coughs, Splitting Of Blood,
Pain in the Side and Chest, Irritation and Soreness
of the Lungs, Bronchitis, Difficulty Of Breathing,
Hectic Fever, Night Sweats, Emaciation and Gene
raj Debility, Asthma, Influenza, Hooping-Cough,
and Group.
IrSold in large bottles at u per bottle with full
directions for the restoration of health.
Pamphlets, containing mass of English and
American certificates, and other evidence, showing
the unequalled merits of this great English remedy,
may be obtained Of the agents gratuiously.

PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
i OF LAW AND Equity, under the direc-
ton of Francis ]. Troubat, esq.,, of Philadelphia;
Hen. Ellis Lewis, Of Lancaster; and Wilson Nc
Candless, esq, of Pittsburgh.
This work contains the best productions of Eng
lish law authors without regard to priority of claim
ON the part of any American publisher. Such books
are now VIGOROUSLY too dear. The reason is. that
as fast as they appear, they become monopolies in
the hands Of booksellers in the Atlantic cities I'm
der the plea of right, acquired by the addition of
notes of American decisions, the latter claim an UNI
divided title to those works, and set burdensome
price on them. The publishers of the work now
offered to the profession throughout the Union, will
respect such titles but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast as they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writers as Starkie, the Chittys, Stephen,
and Archbold, appear, they shall also be included;
and digests Of equity and law decisions--works
which have been studiously kept out Of the Law
Library published at Phiadelphia--shall have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
I5s This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of l60 pages, printed on fine white paper end
good new long primer type, at seven dollars per
mum, payable half yearly.

ELIxER OF cALIsAYA BARK.

THIS preparation is particularly recommended to
Il persons of weak habit, and to such as reside in
low situations, where the nervous system is, in gen.
eral more or less relaxed. The addition of certain in
gradients has SO completely disguised the taste OF
the bark, to render this eicacious remedy most
paatable cordial thus peculiarly adapting il to con-
quer that repugnance which most persons expert
ence after taking for time bitter potions as il
combines the greatest efficacy with highly agree
able favor. As preventive of the ague it has
superseded the use Of all other remedies, in such
parts of the country as il s known. Prepared only
