GOLDEN
ITCH OINTMENT.

4 SAFE, convenient and eflicacious rem
IA edy for that most disagreeaDie and tor
mentng disorder-the ITCH-has been
always greatly needed but no one, it is
presumed, has before been discovered which
will certainly effect a cure without having
ingredients in it both disagrccable and dam
gerous. Those that have attempted its cure
with birthstone, have generally applied it
with mixture of hogs fat, or lard, worn for
several days, OF dried in by the fire, either Of
which exposes the patient to the most immi-
nent danger of taking cold by opening the
pores Of the body, and at the same time
impregnating the blood with a poisonous
quality, and weakening and facilitating the
whole constitution others have used oiu:-
ments which have either proved dangerous
to health, or insufficient to effect cure.
But this will as Certainly cure the ITCH
as it is applied; it is easy and safe Tor any
age, habit or constitution, and attended with
no disagreeable consequences Of any kind,
either at the time OF using it, or at any time
| after, Us can be proved by thousands of pco-
pile of different ages, constitutions aud states
of health, who have used this ointment, and
have been cured BY it.
No family ought to be without this valua-
BILE medicine for, on the first appearance Of
this disorder, on the wrists and between the
fingers. &c, a slight application Of this Oint-
and likewise its being taken by others IL
may also be used as preventive, by touch
ing the hands or the inside Of the gloves once
in while with little Oft, when there is q
suspicion that the disorder is prevalent, and
there is danger Of taking it. For which rca-
son TO people abroad on business, no student,
traveller, soldier or sailor, should be without
this Ointment, which is neatly put up in tin
boxes, convenient to carry, agreeable in its
smell, and will last good for a long time BY
this precaution, neighborhoods, societies and
schools, might be freed from this tormentih:s
disorder. Should the patient have any
other eruption or breaking out, which he
mistakes for the ITCH an application of this
Ointment will do no harm, but oftea cures
the common breaking out, which arises from
| a sharp, hot humor in the blood, and leaves
a smooth polish on the skin.
There have been many Ointments offered
| to the public, for the cure Of the ITcH, but
this valuable medicine bears no analogy IL,
them in its materials, use, or effects ; they
being generally made up of grease, brim-
stone, tar, mercury, spirits Of turpentine,
salt petre, and such like disagreeablc mater
ials, which are loathsome to use, and unsafe
and uncertain in all their effects.
Reg" Druggists can le supplied with this
Ointment by the Gross or Dozen, at reason.

BIZ The following communication on the

very handsomely ridicules II vulgar practice
which young men and boys seem to labor
under the erroneous belief is ornamental to
conversation. The reader must not mistake
the writer's irony for approval of the horrid
practice That portion of the sacred writ
ings referred to condemns the practice utter
ly. The Jews, in those days, when the
words referred to were uttered by the Saviour,
were much addicted to the vile practice of
profanity, so much in fashion among Elkton
boys Of the present day. 1t will be seen
that he utterly condemns it.

Swearing is no doubt an elegant accom-
plishment when skill and address unite in

versation, and charms the ear while at the
same time it gives point. and zest to dis.

and appropriately applied.
The writer is grieved in saying that the
youth Of Elkton under the age of twelve
years mange their oaths in such a way as to
pain the ears of those accustomed TO the
higher grades of profanity.
We therefore submit the question to pa,
rents, whether attention should not be paid
at home to this matter. in order that the sa.
cred names of the Deity and of the Saviour
of mankind should in public swearing be
used in such manner as to be harmonious
rather than discordant.

asserted, that compared with the highest
classic performances, there never were such
