~ ETVERWORT

This plant has been Tor many years found
to be of singular virtue in the cure Of affections
Of the Liver. More recently it was ascertain
ed that it possessed great power in arresting
Bleeding at the Lungs, Coughs, of a chronic
character, etc, and Of essential service il all
diseases Of a pulmonary charlcter,. =
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 asIceand
moss, wild cherry, ETC., to form Il compound
hitherto unrivaled in the history of the cause
and cure Of the various diseases to which the
flesh is heir.
at We copy below a letter from G, w
STARBuCK, Esq, publisher Cincinnati Daily
IT is hut justice to the proprietors and the
public, that the virtues of DR.. Rogers Com
pound Syrup of Liverwort and Tar, should be
familiarly known to every one, and particnIar.
" to those afflicted with diseased lungs. We
have, as proprietor Of n daily journal, watched
its gradual rise and progress in the estimatiun
Of the most eminent, distinguished and intel-
ligent among our citizens, for the past Eve
y ears numerous llsthtCtSO I 1s llCOInphfH-
Bile virtues have been brought under our imtne-
dinte notice: the innumerable and extraordi-
nary Testimonials Of its exccllcncy we know
to be really truq. Such men as Judge Burke,
Professor Cox, NJ. D., Rev, &. w. Maley and
Others, are no fictitious, but eminent and dis
tinguishel citizens, whose reconmanda-
tons cannot but inspire confidence, and
give II popularity ard dignity TO this, which
such n preparation can seldom hope to obtnin,
and were il not So our own personal expert
ence, and that of others attached to our office,
enables US to. say, with certainty, that we con-
slider it the happicst compound, and most val
uahle remedy now before the public, Noterms
can express the entire confidence and pleasure
with which we recommend i 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 five years We have seen it tested under
different circumstances, in the most favorable
and unfayorable cases, critically and almost
hopelessly, from simple bronchitis to despair
ing consumption, and can say that we know
Of no instance where il has been found want
ing, and our opinion can be endorsed by hun-
dreds Of our most refined and e%stinable fellow
citizens, that whatever may have heen the
case with Others, the high position and extra
ordinary popularity Of a specific remedy is
not, N this instance, undeserved.

CONSUMPTION
CHI III RA.

THE records Of the rayages of Cholera in
/ this country for the last twelve months,
show a mortality of about $4,000 souls. The
disense carries with il che most frightfal panic
and desolation, causing tie deseFtion Of friends
and the depopulatiOn of n%eighborhOods, towns
and cities; and yet it appears amongst US but
once in seventeen years 49,, ~.
Consumption destroys ANNUALLY, nc
,cording 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 Consnmp-
ton! If, then, the Cholera is to be feared and
guarded against, how much more vigilantly
should we watch the approach Of its yokeiel-
low, Consumption! II is unlike the Cholera,
in that it steals unaVpares, and saps the foun-
tains Of life. 1t is unlike the Cholera, in that
n cause can be assigned for its attack, and a
remedy can be procured for its ravages. 1t is
unlike the Cholera, in that it CAN De CURED!
whereas the Cholera battles all the arts Of the
scientific and skillful physician.
The Remedy, then, for Consumption is
to be found in Dr.. RoGERs' SYRUP OF LIVER

component of which we propose to Say a few
