nous medy.-Almost daily we hear Of new,
and heretofore unknown virtues, discovered by
its application to new diseases-lor it is
markabIe fact, that many of its effects nc
known only from accident, or experiment. So
deep has been she science Of Mr.. Henry Dal-
lcy, the Inventor, so admirable the combina-
ton Of it's ingredients, that it is found suited to
relieve almost every ailment TO which the
frame of man is subject. Let US cnumerate
some of the peculiar qualities Of this remedy.

plcation, remove the pain from the sevcrcst
Burns, Scalds, or Blisters.-lt will also remove
the pain and cure Govt, Tic DoloreuX, Piles,
Rheumatism, Sores, Swcllings.
9. In cases OF Burns, ifapplicd iTmC diately,
it will preserve life, no matter how severe may
be tho in ury, unless vital part be burned; and
its immediate application will prevent any
blister, and conscq uently any sore, or inflamma
ton.
g. 1t will heal Burns, or Wounds, Ulcers, or
Sores ofany kind, without scar.
4. 1t ncutralizes and destroys poison from

s. 1t will, wherever applied, prevent morti-
| ficaton, and in old Wounds where mortifca-
ton has commenced, it will arrest the disease,
and cure the wound even where flesh has al
ready dropped away, it will restore the part to
| its natural state.

| or pain can occur, and the bones unite, and
become strong with astonishing rapidity.
| 7 When the bowels are painful, or nflamed,
the Extractor, if well rubbed upon them, will
afford relief and cause a movement, ever
when Castor Oil, Jalap, and all medicines have
failed.
8. It's use is perfectly safe in all cases-it
never can do harm-the system will absorb nc
more than may be necessary to repair it.. II
will not conflict with any medicine that may
be taken internally.

These Warrants can be used by settlers
in locating lands upon which they have made
