Foa centuries the fond dream of physi-
oians was to discover q universal remedy,
that wonderful eIirir Uite, which was to re-
move all diseases in the twinkling of an eye,
aud proloug life to an almost indefinite term
In the quiet seOlusion of his labratory the
slchemist unwearisdly sought for this uu-
known treasure, and during the fruitless
search, stumbled across many valuable prep
Arstions for different diseases, if unsuocess-
ful IN obtaining the great secret which be
was endeavoring to discover. As science
progressed, this old superstition faded out,
and remedies only were sought for which
would prove specific in diseases depending
upon the same conditions, and this wiser
plan has resulted in giving to the world many
invaluable articles which, while not preten-
ding to the miraculous, in being equally
useful in all cases, are still marvellous in
their effects upon the diseases they are COM
posed to cure. The nineteenth century has
been particularly rich in these discoveries,
and among them oil probably none are bet
ter than the Macedonian Oil, as put up by
DR.. IugrAhsm, of Wooster, Ohio. No secret
of olden times was ever sought with more
diligence, tried with more patience, or
proved with greater success to be all predi-
Gated of it, than this oil, in all cases of
deafness, catArrh, bronchitis, rheumatism
and similar diseases, when externally en-
ployed, and cholera, collie, kidney com
plants and other ailments, when taken in.
terGally. In comparison with very many
popular remedies the Macedonian Oil is of
very modern growth, but its success since
its Introduction has been unparalleled in the
history of medicine. Known somewhat
longer in the middle States, it has been
scarcely two years before the Western pub
lie, and yet its merits have been so self-evi-
dent and so universal, that it's sales have
outrivsled auticipstions, and astonished even
i,s most sSngaiHe friends This oil has re-
ceived the highest enoomiums Of the faculty,
aud the voluntary endorsement of practical
chemists after a rigid analysis. DR.. Ingra-
han mus; feel highly grAti6ed as he watch
es how beneficial it has proved to be, and
sees with interest the enormous popularity
IL is obtaining in ell parts of the world.

TO THE GOVERNOR OF La, FOR 1871.

The Mayor and the Administrator OF
Public Accounts of the city Of New Orleans

With thrill between pleasure and tremulous

A sure spirit signal, revealing thee near.
