PROSPECTUS OF THE WASHINGTON
AMERICAN.

We can hardly think it necessary to arge
upon those who hold that Americans ought to
rule America, the Importance Of hayinga paper
at the seat Of the Federal Government, which
shall enunciate and advocate the doctrines of
the American party.
paper issued from any Of the great centres
of nation, but especially from the political
Metropolis, in the present age, not in this
country only. but in Great Britain, France, and
wherever there is the least freedom Of discus
sion, is q medium through which those hold
ing similar sentiments in regard to public af-
fairs and public policy, may make known, dis
cuss and defend their views and expose the
impropriety of the principles, and the impolicy
of the measures Of their antagonists. It should
earnestly labor to give a proper direction to
public opinion by enlightening the public
mind.
The AMERrcAs is the only paper published
at the seat Of the Federal Government which
advocates American doctrines; the only SEN
tinel Of the party stationed where near and
clear view can be had Of the movements and
doings oftheir opponents at their headquarters.
Here political information concentrates, and
from hence it radiates to every part OF the en-
pire here party measures and movements are
determined, and political campaigns planned;
here stratagems are concocted and thwarted;
and here at certain seasons Of the year politi-
clans most do congregate here, in short, is
the centre of the great political maelstrom in
which SO many thousands are constantly plung-
ing and forever gyrating
Ifthe American party is desirous Of being a
national party, it should not be without a
paper here through which it can make known
to all people its views, aims and opinions, and

CERTIFICATE.

The undersigne desirous Of acquainting those who
may be unfortunate enough to be similarly afflicted
where permanent relief OF their suaerings may be
obtained, feels it his duty to publicly express his sin
cere gratitude to DIR. L. ]. Czapkay, for the perma-
nent recovery Of his health. Borne down by the dis
ressng symptoms incident to the vicious practices Of
uncontroable passions m youth, depressed in body
and mind, unable to perform even the most tIiiling
duty imposed upon the daily avOcations Of life,
sought the advice OF many physicians, who at first
garded my disease of trihing importance, but, alas
after few weeks and in several instances MONTHS Of
their treatment found, to my unutterable horror,
that instead Of relief, the symptoms became more
alarming in their torture, and being finally told by
that the disease being principally confined tO the
brain, medicines would be OF little consequence,
despared of regaining my health, strength and
energy; and a last resort, and with but a faint
hope called upon DR.. CZapkay, who, after examining
my case, prescribed some medicine which almost in
stany relieved me OF the dull pain and dizziness in
my head. Encouraged by this result resolved to
place myself Immediately under his care, and, by u
strict obedience to his directions and advice my head
became clear my ideas collected, the constant pains
in my back and gr0ins the weakness Of my limbs, the
nervous reaction Of my whole body on the slightest
alarm or excitement, the msanthrOpy and evil fore
bodngs, the selfdistrust and want Of confidence in
Others the incapabity to study and want of resolu
ton, the frightfnl, the exciting, and at times the
pleasurabe dreams at night, followed by involuntary
discharges, have all disappeared, and in fact in two
months after consulting the Doctor, felt IL in
spred by life that life which, but short time
ago, contemplated TO end by my own hand.
with view to guard the unfortunate from falling
into the snare of Incompetent quacks deem it my
duty 10 offer this testimony to the merit and skill of
DR.. Czapkay, and recommend him to all who may
stand in need of medical advice being assured by my
own experience that once under his care, radical
