VNHE 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

ed and incurable. The Hungarian Basam has
cured, and will cure, the desperate Of cases.
Il is no quack nostrum, but standard English
medicine, of known and established efficacy.

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

Hectic Fever, Night Sweais, Emacation and Gene

PROSPECTUS OF THE NEW LIBRARY
i OF LAW AND EQUITY, under the direc-
ton of Francis J. 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 they emanate from the
London market. Should new editions of the works
of such writer's StaIkie, 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.
~ This work will be issued monthly, in num-
bers Of l60 pages, printed 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 system is in gen.
era less relaxed. The addition of certain in
gradients has so completely disguised the taste OF
the bark, as to render this cfcacious remedy most
palaable cordal thus peculiarly adapting it to con-
quer that repugnance which most persons expert
ence after taking for some time bitter poons, as il
combines the greatest efficacy with highly agree
able flavor. As preventive Of the ague it has
superseded the use of all other remedies, in such
parts Of the country it is known. Prepared only
by J. Milhau, No. 1873 Broadway, New York.
