GREAT ENGLisH REMEDY

For Coughs, Colds, Asthma, and Consumption!
pNHE great and only remedy for Colds, Coughs,
i Asthma, and Consumption, is the Hungarian
Balsam Of 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 ofths medicine in the
curse Of pulmonary diseases, warrants the American
agent in soliciting for treatment the WORST POS
SlBLE CASES that can be found in the eommi-
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 ncurable. The Hungarian Balsam has
cured and will cure, the most desperate OF cases.
Il is no auack nostrum but standard English
medicine, Of known and established efficacy.
Every family in the United States should be sup
plied with Buchan,s Hungarian Balsam of Life, not
only to counterfeit the consumptive tendencies OF
the climate but TO be used as preventive medicine
in all cases of Colds, Coughs, Splitting of Flood,
of the Lungs, Bronchitis, Difficulty of Breathing,
Hectic Fever, Night Sweais, Emaciation and Gene
raj Debility, Asthma Influenza, Hooping-Cough,
and Group.
=SoId in large bottles at IL per bottle with full
directions for the restoration of health.

PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
i OF LAW AND Equity, under the direc-
ton of Francis ]. Troubat, esq, Of Philadelphia;
Hon. 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 notorously 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
noles Of American decisions, the latter claim an un-
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
not respect such titles, but will reprint the standard
British law books as fast they emanaie from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writers as Starke, 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--shnll have a
place in the proposed new one, together with every
new valuable English treatise on chancery or COM
mon law.
AZ This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers of 160 pages, printed on fine white paper and
good new long primer type at seven dollars per an
mum, payable half yearly.
