OLD DR . JACOB toWW 8 END'S r ^ EN 0 INE ORIGINAL UNITED STATES * Ur 8 AR 6 APARILLA .-In submitting this Sarsapwrilla to the Peo ple of England , we have been influenced by the same motives which dictated its promulgation m America- This Compound Samparflla of Old Dr . Towmend has nothing in common with preparation * bearing the name in Eng-lantf or America . Prepared by obe of the noblest American Chemists , having the approbation of a great and respectable body of American Physicians and Druggists , universally adopted by the American people , and forming a compound of all the rarest medicinal roots , seeds plants , and flowers that grow on American soil , it it may truly be called the Great and Good American Remedy . Living as it were , amid sickness and disease , and studying its multitudinous phases and manifestations in Hospitals , Asylums , and at the bedside of the sick , for more than 40 years , Dr . Townsend was qualified , above all other men , to prepare a medicine which should perform a greater amount of good than any other man now living . When received into the stomach it is digested like the food , and enters into the circulation as the nutriment part of our aliment does . Its first remedial action is upon the blood , and through that upon every part where it is needed . It is in this way that this medicine supplies the blood with constituents which it needs , and removes that which it does not need . In this way it purifies the blood of excess of bile , acids , and alkalies , of pus , of all foreign and morbid matter , and brings it into a healthy condition . In this way it quickens or moderates the circulation , producing coolness , warmth , or perspiration . In this way it Is that this medicine is conveyed to the liver , where it allays inflammation , or relieves congestion , removes obstructions , cleanses and heals abscesses , dissolves gummy or thickened bile , and excites healthy secretions . In this way , also , is this medicine conducted to the lungs , where it assuages inflammation , allays irriiation , relieves cough , promotes expectoration , dissolves tubercles , and heals ulcerations . In like manner it acts on the stomach to neutralise acidity , remove flatulence , debility , heartburn , nausea , restore tone , appetite , &c . In the same way it acts upon the kidneys , on the bowels , on the uterus , the ovaria , and all internal organs , and not less effectually on the glandular and lymphatic system , on the joints , bones , and the skin . It is by cleansing , enriching , and purifying the blood that ojd Dr . Towneend ' s Sarsapariila effects so many wonderful cures . Physiological science has demonstrated the truth of what is asserted in Holy Writ , that "the Blood is the Life . " Upon this fluid all the tissues orthe body depend for their maintenance and repletion . It carries to and maintains vitality in .

every part by its circulation and omnipresence . It replenishes the wastes of the system , elaborates the food , decomposes the air , and imbibes vitality from it ; regulates the corporeal temperature , and gives to every solid and fluid its appropriate Bub-Btance or secretion—earthy and mineral substance , gelatine , marrow , and membrane to the bones—fibrine to the muscles , tendons , and ligaments—nervous matter to the brain and nerves—cells to the lungs—linings to all the cavities ; parenchy ,-jnatous and investimg substances to the viscera ; coats , coverings , &c , to all the vessels ; hair to the head—nails to the fingers and toes ; urine to the kidneys ; bile to the liver—gastric juice to the stomach ; sinovial fluid to the joints—tears to the eyes ; saliva to the mouth ; moisture to the skin—and every necessary fluid to lubricate the entire framework of the system ; to preserve it from friction and inflammations Now , if this important fluid becomes corrupt or diseased , and the secreting organs fail to relieve it of the morbid matter , the whole s \ stem feels the shock , and must sooner or later sink under it , unless relieved by the proper remedy . When this virulent matter is thrown to the skin , it shows its disorganising and virulent influence in a multitude of cutaneous diseases , as salt rheum , scald head , erysipelas , white swelling , scarlet fever , measles , smallpox , * chicken or kine pox , superficial ulcers , boil ? , carbuncles , pruritus or itch , eruptions , blotches , excoriations , and itching , burning sorea over the face , forehead , and breast . When thrown upon the cords and Joints , rheumatism in all Its forms are induced ; when upon the kidneys , it produces pain , heat ; calculi , diabetes , or strangury , excess or deficiency of urine , with inflammation and other sad disorders of the bladder . When catritd to the bones , the morbid matter destroys the animal and earthy substances of these tissues , producing necrosis , i . e ., decay or ulceration of the bonea . When

conveyed to the liver , all forms of hipatic or bilious diseases are produced . When to the lungs , it produces pneumonia , catarrh , asthma , tubercles , cough , expectoration , and final consumption . When to the stomach , the effects are inflammation , indigestion , sick headache , vomiting , loss of tone and appetite , and a fainting , sinking sensation , bringing troubles and disorders of the whole system . When it seizes upon the brain , spinal marrow or nervoun system , it brings on the tic dolnreux , or neuralgia , chorea , or St . Vitus' dance , hysteria , palsy , epilepsy , insanity , idiocy , and many other distressing ailments both of body and mind . When to the eyes , ophthalmia ; to the ears , ottorrhcea ; to the throat , bronchitis , croup , &c . Thus all the maladies known to the human system are induced by a corrupt state of the blood .

With no general remedy on which implicit reliance cart be placed as a purifier of the blood , disease and tufferitig , and consi-quent want , atalk unchecked and unsubdued in every land in all the world . If there is arrest of action in any of the viacera , immediately they begin to decay ; if any fluid ceases to circulate , or to be changed for fresh , it becomes a mass of corruption , and a malignant enemy to the living fluids and solids . If the blood stagnates it spoils ; if the bile does not pass o ( F , and give place to frenh , it . rots ; it the urine is retained ii ruins body and blood . The whole system , every secretion , every function , every fluid depend ( or their health upon action , circulation , change , giving mid receiving—and the moment these cease disease , decay , ami death begin . In thus tracing the causes and manifestations of disease , we see how wonderful and mysterious are the ways of Providence in adapting the relations of cause and effect . of action and reaction , of life and death . All nature abounds with the truth that every active substance has Us opposite or corrective . All poisons have their antidotes , and nil diseases have their remedies , did we but know them . Upon ibid principle was lit . Townacnd guided In the diBcovery of his medicine . Prepared expressly by the old Doctor to net upon the blood , It is calculated to cure a great variety of diseases . Nothing could be better for all diseuues of children , an ineuslea , croup , hoopingcough , email , chicken , or kine pox ; mumps , quiimy , worina , ¦ oarlet fever , colds , co 8 tiveui > BB , » nd feveru of all kindo and . being pleauatit to the tante , there cun be no difficulty in ( retting them to take it- It in the vury beat apriii * medicine to cleanse tlio blood , liver , stomach , kiduuyu , nd uliin . la female and nervous di * cuneu , thin great remedy doe * marvels in logulatiuir the metises , making- them natural , relieving pains , cramps , « pawm > , fainting , and carrying - nil nil tho «« disturbing and dcbiliti * ting influences wniuh cauau the falling of U > e womb , lcucorrhopu or the wliitrw , scalding , obstruction , or frequent inclinations to puau urine .

CURES FOR THE tJNCURED ! HOLLO WAY'S OINTMENT . —An extraordinary Curk of 8 orofula or Kinq ' s Evil . Extract of a Letter from Mr . J . H . Alliday , 209 , High-street , Cheltenham , dated the 22 nd of January , 1850 . To Professor Hoixoway . " Sir , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a Glandular Swelling in the neck , which , after a short time , broke out into an Ulcer . An eminent medical man pronounced it as a very bad case of Scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for four years went on gradually increasing in virulence , when , besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyeB , which was expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the eon 8 tant advice of the most celebrated medical Gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital , where one of the Surgeons said that he would amputate the left arm , but that the blood was so impure that , if that limb were taken off , it would be then even impossible to subdue the disease . In this desperate state I determined to give your Pills and Ointment a trial , and , after two months' perseverance in their use , the tumour gradually began to disappear , aud the iiseharge from all the ulcers perceptibly decreased , and at the expiration of eight months they were perfectly healed , and the boy thoroughly restored to the blessings of health , to the astonishment of a large circle of acquaintances , who could testify to the truth of this miraculous case . Three years have now elapsed without any recurrence to the malady , and the boy is noiv as healthy as heart can wish . Under these circumstances I consider that 1 should be truly ungrateful were I not to make you acquainted with this wonderful cure , effected by your medicines , after every other means had failed .
