The healthful balm from Natures secret spring,
The bloom Of health, and life, to man will bring;
As from her depths the magic liquid flows.
To calm our suiferings, and assuage our woes.
DETROLEUM.-Iti is necessary, upon the in
froduetion Of a new Medicine, to the notice
Of the public, that something should be said in
relation 10 its powers, in healing disease, and
The manner in which it acts. Mans organiza-
ton IS complicated one; and TO understand
the functions Of each organ, requires the study
Of wears. But to understaDd that certain
remedies produce certain Impressions upon
these organs may be learned BY experience in
short tims. Il is by observation in catching
the effects Of various medicines, that We are
enabled to increase the number Of curative
agents, and when we have discovered . new med
ieine and attested its merits, II is our duty to
bring it before the public, 50 that the benefits to
be derived from il, may be more generally dif-
fused, but have no right to hold baeS a remedy
whose powers are calculated TO remove pain,
and to alleviate human suffering and disease.
