For Primary Syphilis. How long have the
medlcal profession tried in vain to discover some
the-reputlcaI agent that could be relied upon TO
cure disease more to be dreaded than all others
| combined. Some Quack Doctors advertise to cure
yenerea! diseases without the use of mercury
But thelr statements are false. We have taken
pains to collect the receipts of some who make
great noise, and we find that they use the To-
dine Of Mercury for everything, whether it is
proper or not and since we find them misrepre-
senting in this particular, we have reason to sus
pect them and I'D omne genus in all their pre
tensions.
Gentlemen, there never was q remedy canable
Of curing the disease without mercury, until the
/ discovery of the Chloride of Gold and we submit
it to the test, having thoroughly tried it, and
know it to possess all the qualities attributed to it.
DR.. Christian says:-The Chloride of Gold is
capable Of curing Syphalis under all its forms,
and that in its general operations on the system
/ it possesses many advantages over mercury. 1t
is effcacious, yet gentle. ltmay be administered
with perfect safety at all seasons Of the year. and
under any complication of the disease. Persons
of either sex may be put uponit with equal safe
ty the only caution enjOined is strict temperance
In other respects the patient is not required to
change his mode of living.
DR.. Samuel l.. Mitchell, the distinguished sur
geon of New York, speaks III the following words:
The Chloride of Gold possesses admirable viz
tues against Syphalis. The patient gets well un-
der the operation of the medicine, with incom-
parably less inconvenience, without the hazard
of a sore mouth or salvation, and with very lit
tie wear and tear of the constitution. | consider
the introduction Of this preparation in common
use, as one of the greatest improvements in mod
ern medicine and wish it was already as uni
versa as the malady it cures.
Other distinguished members of the medical
profession have given testimony of the great val
ue OF the remedy, the statements of whom we
have in our possession.
Gentlemen We shall be glad to see you at any
time-we are always prepared to attend to your
wants
The above remedy will be sent to any persons
address who sends the price Of the medicine

been gratited as man by the cordial reception given
to him, but still more, we can well conceive, as a
patriot, by the glow of enthusiasm which ever and
anon broke out into flame, which the noble senti-

it was strictly emotion than eXctement-that it
overleaped all restraint. Sedate clergymen on the
