AN ASTONISHING MAN--FAMED THROUGH
OUT THE WoRLD.-New York ind London
are now the great manufacturing depots for
Holloway's Pills and Ointment. From No.
80 Maiden Lane, this city, and No. 944
Strand, London, are sent forth daily, mil
lions of boxes and pots Of these inestimable
medicines. The heavy duty imposed by
our government upon patent medicines, and
the large and constantly increasing sale of
Holloway's Pills and Ointment in this
country, determined their proprietor to
make this city his residence. Our republl-
can system Of government is also in har-
mony with the predictions Of Professor
Holloway; and though Kings and Empe-
rors have conferred upon him honors and
especial favors, these will never be so graf
flying to him as the grateful hearts of mil
lions of free citizens, who without any en-
dorsement of sovereign authority, freely
patronize his celebrated remedies for the
prevention and removal Of diseases.
As q member Of the medical faculty,
having long witnessed the ineficiency Of
the profession in curing disease, and being
familiar with the errors and follies Of the
profession, we feel it an imperative duty to
acquaint the American public with the arri-
val of this distinguished physician in our
city. His fame, in measure, preceded
him to our shores, but the extent of the
good he has done in the world has never
vet been proclaimed to an American public
Great as his reputation is, it is destined tc
increase far beyond that which ever adorn-
ed the character of any man whose profes'
sion was that of healing the sick
We shall embrace other occasions to ex-
plain to the American people the system
the theory and mode Of cure adopted BY
Prof. Holloway. His Pills and Ointment,
the one taken internally, and the other ap
piled externally, act in harmonious con
junction, and if his directions are followed
will eradicate every disease incident to mas
in all climes. They purify and cleanse the
body, and restore healthy action in every
organ. Our space will not permit us to saI
more at this time respecting this distin
guished man and his celebrated remedies
| He has one ambition, and it is an honora
bic one. He wishes to have the world for
patient; and he will succeed in his desire.
1t is our object to address the America
public in series Of articles, showing con
clusively that, in the whole history OF med
ios1 science, no medicines have ever been Of
fered for their use which are SO efficaciou
in restoring health and preventing diseas
as those Of Prot, Holloway lnthis serie
of articles we shall necessarily explain muc
