organs, the skin, and kidneys, prevailing to a
great extent. Irregular diaresls, profuse NOR

a loose or constipated state of the bowels, to-

the kidneys. The liver, the most important
organ OF the body, was, 10 all these cases,
deeply implicated, giving rise to all the dis

lection of this viscus, misleading the physician
employed, and disappointing the hopes Of the
patient that relief would surely follow specific
action OF medicine upon the part diseased. By
improper medicine. we have found every vari-

the various avenues of Nature, by which dis,

completely as if it had been designed to block

to finish its work OF demolition Our first OBJ

however, must 1t be understood that we pro-
pose to put new lungs into the thorax where
they were destroyed, for let human ingenuity
and skill be ever so great, it is not in the
power Of science to supply 50 vital deficiency.
We have succeeded in relieving innumerabIe
apparently hopeless cases, and have laid the
foundation for many important cures The
cure OF pulmonary complaints, has ever bafiled
the efforts of physicians, from the insuperable
difficulties presenting themselves in reaching
the disease by direct medicine. The circulat
ing fluids only, which carry health and strength
to all parts of the body, are, luckily for hu-
manity, capable of bearing along with Them in
their course through the system, the means of
publication.
This is the plan adopted by Nature to heal
herself, and there is little doubt that, no mat
ter what the disease may be, it may effectually
be reached, relieved and cured by proper cor
rect medicines. BY system adopted by US,
we compel the blood, which in Pulmonary
Consumption is charging the interior organs
of the body, to leave them in necessary
measure, and circulate on the surface and

Those who patliate only will never succeed in

their own inattention as from those whom
they have employed as physicians They have
not sought to reason for themselves, but have
blindy followed the advice of others. And it
may be safely set down as a rule ever to be

tention to two or three rules will greatly ben
eht all, and enable them to trace out the
course and operation of the medicine upon
which they intend for cure.
The first of these rules is to ascertain clearly
what is the matter with them. This the doc
tor ought to be able to tell them precisely and
unequivocally-for by this they will be able to
discriminate somewhat between iudicious and
inJudicious medicines. Whenever the har
mony of the system has been overthrow by
disease, 1t must be re-established by proper
medical treatment, or continual discord is the
result, and you may be assured that unless
proper medicines be employed, unless there is
specific affinity between the disease and med
icine used, no result of beneficial nature will
take place.
A long acquaintance with medicine, and a
close application for many years to the history
and operation of diseases of long standing

variety of chronic disease. We reject all
poisonous and depletive agents, whether min

they be used, without benefit. Our object is
