Important Information!
To Passengers by the Ocean Steamers

The Fevers and Rheumatic Diseases
which are sometimes contracted while
crossing the Isthmus of Panama, or of Mica
ragua. generally result from the want Of
knowledge. or the indiscretion of the trav.
eler. Excepting few constitutions strong
~ fortified by nature, every voyager is in
some degree affected by the malaria, Oh
vegetable poison, which floats in the atmos
phere of the tropics. The researches Of
Professor Liebig have shown that this at
mospheric poison. or lniasm (enteripg the
human body by the skin and lungs,) pro.
duces a fermentation in the Blood which is
sometimes rapid and fatal, under the well
known forms of "Bilious." Typhoid, !;
"Isthmus, u Panama, land .sYellow' fever.
Every housekeeper knows that the fer
mentation of yeast may be checked by a
mineral alkali. In the same manner the
fermentation Of malaria in the human body
is terminated, or even wholly prevented. by
vegetable remedies appointed by nature
for that end.
1t is proved beyond controversy, that
small doses Of certain vegetable gums and
alkaloids, taken daily during the approach
to the Isthmus, and the passage over. are a
strong protection against atmospheric
poison. To ensure healthy and agreeable
passage, it is necessary: lf
list. To observe few simple directions,
which, if followed, will keep the skin, the
lungs, the stomach and the bowels in good
condition.
I'd. To use daily, small doses of the pre-
ventive medicine, while approaching and
passing through the hot ATTITUDES.
The remedies which prevent, are natu-
rally those which cure; and If, through un-
avoidable exposure, or great susceptibility,
the traveller finds the ''chill,n or the febrile
irritation stealing over him, he has only to
increase the dose. Directions for such cases
occurring on the Isthmus, and for the pre-
servation of health during the voyage, to-
gether with the necessary prescriptions,
will be furnished by DR.. Whelpley, at his
Office, at any hour between a. M, and s
o'clock in the evening.

wait until the last moment, but to call as
early as possible before the day of sailing.
