This plant has been for many years found
to be of singular virtue in the cure of affections
of the Liver. More recently it was ascertain
ed that il possessed great power in aFresting
Bleeding at the Lungs, Coughs, of a chronic
character, ETC., and of essential service in all
Diseases Of a pulmonary character,
Notwithstanding the extraordinary proper
ties Of these valuable ingredients were gener-
ally known and acknowledged, it was left for
DR.. Andrew Rogers to discover the process of
extracting and combining their peculiar virtues
with other vegetable substances such as Iceland
moss, wild cherry, ETC., to form Il compound
hitherto unrivaled in the history Of the cause
and cure Of the Varions diseases to which the
flesh is heir.
IT. We copy below a letter from G. w
STARBUCK, ESQ. publisher Cincinnati Daily
Times;-
1t is but justice to the proprietors and the
public, that the virtues of DR.. Rogers Conn
pound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, should be
familiarity known to every one, and particular
ly to those afflicted with diseased lungs. We
have, as proprietor IF a daily journal, watched
its gradual rise and progress in the estimation
Of the most eminent, distinguished and intel
ligent among our citizens, for the past FIVE
years. Numerous instances of its %incompara-
BILE virtues have been brought under our imme-
date notice; the innumerable and extraordi-
nary testimonials Of its excellency we know
to be really true. Such men as Judge Burke,
Professor Cox, M. D., Rev. G. w. Maley and
Others, are no fictitious, but eminent ind dis
tinguishet citizens, whose recommended
tons cannot but inspire confidence, and
give IA popularity and dignity 10 this, which
such a preparation can seldom hope to obtain,
and were it not so, our " personal expert
ence, and that of others attached to our Office,
enables us to say, with certainty, that VIC con-
slider It the happiest compound, and most val
liable remedy now before the public. No terms
can express the entire confidence and pleasure
with which we recommend il for those COM
plants to to the public, in whatever part Of
the globe Colds, Coughs, or that horrible
scourge of%humanity, Consumption exists. We
say for Eve years we have seen it tested under
different circumstances, in the most favorable
and unfavorable cases, critically and almost
hopelessly, from simple bronchitis to despair
ing consumption, and can say that we know
Of no instance where II has been found want
ing, and our opinion can be endorsed by hun
dreds of our most refined and %cstimable fellow
citizens, that whatever may have been the
case with others, the high position and extra
ordinary popularity OF Il specific remedy is
not, in this instance, undeserved.

G HOLERA A.

THE records Of the ravages Of Cholera in
/ this country for the last twelve months,
show.a mortality Of about $4,000 souls. The
disease carries with it the most fhghtful panic
and desolation, causing the desertion of friends
and the depopulation Of neighborhoods, towns
and cities; and yet it appears amongst US bu'
once in seventeen years,
Consumption destroys ANNUALLY, &C
cnrding to statistics from the boards Of health.
One Hundred and Fifty Thousand persons.
How, then stands the account between these
two great destroyers Of the human family
Nearly as fifty to one on the side Of Consump,
ton! If, then, the Cholerais to be feared and
guarded against, how much more vigilantlJ
should we watch the approach Of its yokefeE
low, Consumption! Ii is unlike the Cholera
in that it steals Bnawares, and saps the foun
tains Of life. 1t is unlike the Cholera, in thai
n cause can he assigned for its attack, and I
remedy can be procured for its rayeges. 1t j
unlike the Cholera, in that it CAN BE CURED
whereas the Cholera battles allthe arts Of th'
