The value of this medicine is-aQw widely
known and every Say the field Of its usefulness is
extended. 1t is approved and highly recommend
ed by physicians and admitted to bo tho most
powerful and searching propagation from the root,
that has ever been employed in medical practice.
It's operation extends to the remotest parts of the
system, and consists in removing diseased action
in the absorbing and secreting organs. In man,
Nature seldom effects, unassisted, the cure Of any
vrulent disease but requires the aid Of stimulant,
Alternative, or antisepilc medicine. In diseases of
the skin and flesh, combination Of these three
classes Of medical agents is highly desirable. All
these properties are combined in this preparation
and instead Of operating successfully upon the
system, as they must necessarily do when taken
separately, they operate simultaneously, and in
perfect harmony when administered in this form.
Its tonic property strengthens the Digestion and
improves the appetite, It's Alternative tendency
carries of the accumulations OF morbid matter
and its antiseptie influence neutralizes the virus,
by which the disease is fostered. Its uniform sue
cess in curing and relieving the various diseases
for which it is recommended, is established by a

LIVER COMPLAINT AND SALT RHEUM.

IL
Messrs. A. b. & D. Sands-Gentlemen Words
can but feebly express my feelings, in conveying
the pleasing intelligence that my wife is restored
to perfect health by the use OF your invaluable
Sauaparila. She was afflicted with a severe Gu.
taneous disease that covered the whole suffice Of
the body, so that il would have been impossible
to touch any part that was free ffom the humor
the head face and body were covered with scales
like those of a fish (; the hair fell out in large
quantities, aud walking caused the most excrucia-
ting agones as it affected the joints more severely
than any other part. She suffered also long lime
from affection or the liver, connected with gen
tral debility, and prosraton Of tho nervous sys-
TEN. Physicians, both In Europe aud America,
had exhausted the usual remedies, without Affect
ing a cure, or scarcely a1ording relief; and the
best medical skill was unavaing, until she happi-
ly used your Sarsapara. The disease was pro-
nounced salt rheum, but her whole system, inter
nally and externally, was altogether derangel but
complete has been the cure, after using the
Slrsaparilla for six weeks and taking in ali less
than one dozen bottles, that she now enjoys better
health than for years previous to taking the sar-
sapanlla The object in making this communica-
IT,. is, that oil who have suffered she has, may
know where and to whom to apply for relief land
that not in yainl, as a complete cure will be the
result My wife uniies with me in heartfelt thanks

THE public will be gratifed to learn that the
/ United States Mail Steamship Company are en-
abled to announce that their arrangements are now
complete for sending passengers through from
New York to San Francisco and back
In the first attempts Of this Company to meet
the wants of travel to California, by providing
ships on the Pacific, in connection with their
ships from New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon, at the urgent solicitation of the great
number then DESTROYS TO go out TO sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
from desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages in no other quarter, and by
which, whatever might be the detention they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line. Unforeseen difficulties, and the preva-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janeiro at the time pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama as soon
as anticipated, and caused detention at the 18TH
mus, which was increased by the impotence OF
passengers in going forward, against the advice
Of che ce-.r-a,-r - ---i--- A-5- 49, Il -lr

These interruptions are now all removed.
Three of the four ships Of the Company, intended
for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips TO San
Francisco and back. So that the Company are
now able to give the public the assurance that the

ships OF their Pacific Line, offer the most certain,
rapid, and pleasant through passage to California.
