~ MEDICINES. In presenting these prepa-
Eof the prejndiees which they must expect to en-
Jcounter. The country is deluged with quack
nostrums, each claiming 70 be the ne plus ultra
the medicine of al medicines-and are pushed
Unto notice by the aid of printers ink, with o
zeal worthy of better cause, notwith standing all
that has been said and the essays written against
their use by the profession, and out of the pro-
fession. Indeed so prevalent has become the
mania for quackery that q recent writer, o man
lof eminenee in the medical profession strongly
advises that thesubieet belet alone. TT exists
by the exercise of which men procure bread, .
the tide.

fectral method of counteracting this strong cur
rent of quackery Eas TO place in the hands of the
people, regular medicines, prepared in accordance
with the rules of pharmacy.

and the inhabitants bohold the deyouring ele-
ment sweeping towards, their devoted homes,

water upon it By no means3 They build up
tcounter-fres which rush forth to meet the an
I preaching torrent of flame, and by exhaustins
its food, put stop TO its rnvages, or turnit out
of its course. Now this Is precisely what we are
| tryingto do. The counter-fre which we are
knding, consists in presenting to the public, me-
dicines which are prepared according tn the
laws of Science, from the best of drugs, and-un-
tder the suPerintednenceo of regular physician.
For testimonials of their efficiency in the treat
mcnt of the various diseases for which they arc
recommended, we would refer to all that have
ever used of them. We bring forward no corti-
ficOtes from @obsure individuals, stating that
they hnve been cured of all'manner ofincurable
Diseases deeming it an insult to the intellipence
of tho community TO try TO palm Off such stuff
upon them. II these medicines are y humb
