It an invaluable remedy. The Panacea does
not contain mercury Ia any form, and being an
innocent preparation 1t fsay be given to the
most tender infant.
Negroes who are confined in large numbers on
plantation in hot climates, are peculiarly liable
to such forms Of disease, arising from q Vitia-
ted state Of the blood and want Of cleanliness
and variety of food. These diseases so FREE
%quently s6t regular. practice at defiance, and
render their miserable victims both useless and
pxppnsive to their masters, that planters would
study their own interest as well as that OF hue
