Compound Fluid Extract of Sarsaparilla.
This preparation is offered as a substitute for
the many preparations put out under the same
name, which are for the most part absolutely
worthless, being entirely destitute of the active
virtues of the root, and, by being prepared in an
unskilful manner and from inert materials, are
highly injurious, and seriously impair the health
of the patient.
We have received numerous testimonials, ex
pressing in the strongest terms the great efficacy
of this medicine, and its superiority over other
preparations of Sarsaparilla.
Physicians can prescribe it with the utmost con
fidence, relying upon its uniform strength, and that
it is prepared from the best material.
It has elicited from the most eminent of the Fac
ulty in Philadelphia, who have employed it, fre
quent expressions of commendation, at the unva
rying success attending its administration, produ
cing the most satisfactory and beneficial results.
It is highly recommended for. the removal and
permanent cure of the following diseases, viz :
Scrofula or King's Evil, Rheumatism, Syphilit
ic Affections, Tetter and Ulcers, White Swellings,
Scurvy, Neuralgia or Tic Doloreux, Cancer, Goi

Mexican Mustang Liniment.
THE astonishing properties of this Liniment
are un parallelled for the cure of Rheuma
tism, Neuralgia, Sprains, Burns, Bruises, Swel
ling, Broken or Caked Breast, Sore Nipples, or
pains in any part of the body an external applica
tion can reach. We have many certificates from
those that have been cured of those diseases: and
also from those that hare had horses cured of
Ring-hone, Spavin, Wind galls, Sveney, or any en
largement of bone or muscle.
WONDERFUL CURE.
Messrs. A, O. Bra go & Co Gextlemen : One
of our most valuable Express Horses has been
much troubled by large swellings or tumors on the
fetlocks larger than hen's eggs, the limbs and
joints were quite stiff swollen and lame. We had
tried many other Liniments, and other remedies,
but nothing had any effect upon them. We would
willingly have given $25, to have had the horse
restored to soundness Our hostler obtained your
Liniment, and applied it without our knowledge.
A few days ago, he called our attention to the
horse, and to our surprise and gratification, his
legs were perfectly smooth, the tumort having en
tirely diutppeartd. We asked him by what magic
he had effected so remarkable a cure : he replied
the Murr ax a Lamm Imm be sed tat tsatrrUr,- f
and the tumors are entirely removed without any
soreness, or leaving a scar.

I hate used the Mexican Mist a no Liniment
for some time in my stable upon my horses iu cas
es of Sprains, Bruises, Galls, Strains, and Sores of
differeut kinds, incident to a large number of hor
ses. I used it upon a horse which had been saddle
galled for nearly a year. I had tried many reme
dies, and one in particular, that I had been in the
habit of using for years, and had generally proved
successful. Nothing appeared to give it any relief
until I tried the MUSTANG UMMEM, which
cured it in a very short time. I consider it an in
valuable remedy, aud would not be without it.
WM. II. HOLMES.
Savannah. Geo., June 25. 1852.
We have also used the MUSTANG LINIMENT
extensively in our stable, and we find it to be the best
remedy we have ever used for sores or lameness of
any kind. SAW 1 ER, HOLLISTER & ( ).
MR. WILLIAM JOHNSON, lor the last five years
a citizen of this city, and now the proprietor of the
Hotel in Savannah, known as the Marshnll House,
has favored us with the following certificate :
The MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT has
been used in my family, and on my plantation, for
a great variety of diseases requiring an external
application, and has never failed to give immediate
relief and effect a permanent cure. I have cured
several cases of Rheumatism that had resisted the
skill of our best physicians. It hus cured Ring
worms by a single application, Chilblains in a few
days,' Toothacae immediately, Frost bites. Cuts,
Sores and Corns, by a few applications ; Nervous
Headache cured entirely. In fact. I have used it
for almost every thing, and it has nlways cured. 1
consider it the best medicine I have ever used.

G. F. SECCHI DE CASALL, Editor of the'Z,'
Eco If Italia," No. 9, Spruce-street, New York, had
a very severe attack of Neuralgia in the face, oc
casioned by taking cold in a decayed tooth. At first
it was real "jumping tooth-ache," but soon the
whole side of the face and jaw become swollen and
inflamed, and thepain was most excruciating. In
this condition he came into the store a few days
ago, with his hands convulsively pressing his cheek,
and his features very much distorted into expres
sions of great agony. We immediately applied the
Mustang Liniment and gave him a bottle to continue
its use. This morning he called with smiles of
pleasure and feelings of gratitude illuminating
his countenance, to say that-the Liniment gave him
almost instant relief, and had effected a perfect
cure. Comments are unuescessary. Facts speak
for themselves. Jun 19, 1852.
PRICES. In consequence of the increased de
mand for the Liniment, we are now putting up 25
cents, 50 cent and $1 bottles. The 50 cent bottles
contain three times as much as the 25 cent bottle,
and the $1 bottle contains three times as much as
the 50 cent bottle, so that money will be saved by
buying the large bottles.

to make room for it. The public need fear no im
position, as there are now some 280 Machines run
ning in North Carolina ; and I wish to offer no other
references than the gentlemen who are using them,
whose expectations have been more than realized in
their performance. It not only thoroughly cleanses
the Wheat of Smut, but also purifies it of all other
substances, almost to perfection. It takes up but 4
feet square in, the mill and requires but little pow

many of which are in the country.
The Company is entirely free from debt ; have
made no assessments, and have a very large a
mount in cash and good bonds, and is therefore
confidently recommended to the public.

ty, without destroying their right to a full participa
tion in the entire profits of the Company. Premi

So that, on the plan of this Company, there is
created at one and the same time an assurance pay
able at death a fund available in sickness and a pro
vision for old age.
