it produces a roaring in the ears, nausea, arui a j

when it effects a cure it is scldooi permanent. It i
was the hope of a\oiding thia state of things that t

are happy to say that irs success h$s surprised even i

Ge.vtlkmsn ? Daring the late Creek Campaign, I
was attacked violently with Bilious Intermittent Fe
ver, which for several days confined meto my quar
ters at Tallassee. . Your "Southern Tonic" was re
commended to me, and my friend Dr Bussey, actu
ally rode from Tallassee to Montgomery and back in
one day to procure me a bottle, which entirely re
lieved me, and enabled me, before I had taken half
the quantity, to proceed on and join the army on
Hatchachubba. Since my return home my son was
attacked, and I sen: into the *city for your Tonic,
wri regretted to learn there was none for sale in
Mobile. Cannot yoa send some to this place, so
that our citizens may enjoy the benefits of the best
medicine of the sort I have ever tried? Your at
tention to this request will confer a favour on the
afflicted, and oblige one who has already experienced
its beneficial effects. Your obd't. scrv't.

Gentlemen ? I hive used your Southern Tonic
m a number of cases, and I have no hesitation in
saying, that I have found it decidedly more effica
cious in Ague and Fever than the remedies in ^en

qualities. Respectfully,

Dear. Sirs ? I have been afflicted with Ague and \
Fever for a long time, and although the remedies i
which were prescribed eave me temporary relief, i
yet none removed the cause of the <iise..se, and !
thereby permanently cured me till I used your South- '
ern Tome. It did so. This gave me great confi- i
dene*, and as I saw that you had recommended it in i
eases of debility, general weakness, and inactivity I
?f the digestive ergans, I induced my wife, who had
been laboring under these symptoms for a year or i
more, to try it. She used one bottle with sorao evi- j
dences of an increase of health, and a tew bottles j
more taken in moderate doses entirely cured her.

MA.VI.NG now acquired an exalted reputation in
private practice by an invariable efficacy
which could only have resulted from their exalted
worth, has convinced the proprietor that he has only
to make vhem extensively known to render that re
futation universal.
It is only a lew years sir.ce these Pills were first
presented to the Public, but in that time some thous
ands of persons might be found who would solemnly
declare that they believed their lives were secured
by them, and in many cases after they had tried most
and perhaps a:[ the common remedies in vain. ?
Wherever ihey arc kno-wn they are rabidly coming
into use and this affords the most substan'.ial and
convincing proof oftheir merits
They are composed entirely of vegetable matter,
and honestly promise no more than they faithfully
perform.
A physician of eminence who had witnessed the |
cflicacy of these i'llls in his own private practice,
had the candor recently to acknowledge to the pro
prietor, that he hnJ never ?sed an article thatansw
rrod a better purpose for what iney are recommen
ded, and that they ought deservedly to stand at the
head of the whole class of such remedies. Perhaps
no article of the kind has ever been offered to the
Public, supported by testimonials of a character ?o
decisive, trom sources as respectable, or that has
met with more general favor.
These Pills have been most successfully employ
ed in almost every variety of functional disorder of
i the Stomach, Bowels, Liver, and Spleen; such as
; Heart Burn, Acid Eructations, Nausea, Head Ache,
I pain and distention of the Stomach and Bowels, In
cipient Dinrrhcea, Cholic, Jaundice, Flatulence,
i Habitual Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Sick Head
| Ache, &c. They area safe and comfortable aperient
for females during pregnancy and subsequent con
finement, relieving sickness of the Stomach, Head
Ache, Heart Burn, and many incident Nervous Af
fections; literary men, students, and most other per
sons of sedentary habits, find them very convenient.
Those who indulge too 'reely io the pleasures, of
the table, find speedy relief from the sense of op
pression and distention which follow, by taking the
I Pills. Those who are drinking Mineral Waters, and
particularly those from ague and fever districts, will
find them a valuable adjunct. Those who are ex
posed to the vicissitudes of weather, on voyages or
journeys, can take them at all times with perfect
safety.
Dr. P. having been educated under the most emi
nent American and European Medical professors,
and practised his profession many years in different

iloiitaguc's Balsia,
An Indian Remedy For the Tooth- A che.
THE established reputation and constantly in
creasing demand lor this effectual remedy of
?ain and preservative of the teeth, has induced the
'roprietor to offer- it to the American public. Ar
rangements have been made to supply agents in all
the principal cities and towns in the United States,
so as to plnce it within the reach of those suffering
and likely to suffer with this most harassing of all
Achat, TOOTH-ACHE.
The cause of decay in tef.th is the depositing
of small particles of masticated food (either animal
or vegetable) in the indentations of the teeth, or be
tween them, which there remain until decay of tins
food takes place, the acidity of which decomposes
the tooth. The great difficultyof all that have writ
ten treatises on the teeth, has bt en, to recommend
a liquid, that would mix itself up with this fetid mat
ter, so as to weaken it to such a degree, as to pre
vent its affecting the teeth.
This 'discovery (purely accidental) has not only
been brought to light, by the use of which the de
cay may be arrested ? but ils application Jo an aching
tooth (when the nerve can be reached) affords almost
instantaneous relief. And if ils is continued
until the bo; tie is consumed, none need apprehend
pain from the same t<-oth. Jt may bo remarked, that
the teetk are as subject to ache, as any other bone
oftho system, and in the same way. But for tooth
ache, proper, a remedy is now offered to tho public,
that has become the wonder, as well as the admira
tion of every one that has become acquainted with
its reputation. Since a remedy has been discov
ered for a disease so general and so excruoiating as
the tooth-ache, the proprietor has been more than
?vtr struck with tho grand and benevolent provis
ions made for man, in all his afflictions, and is fully
satisfied, that the earth is supplied with a remedy at
hand for every disease, where the cause may be
traced.
A few extracts of letters are published, in place of
the numerous certificates, that might be; as they oc
cupy less space, are less expensive, and inspire the
public with equal confidence.

I plugged a tooth for a lady in Petersburg, which,
from its very sensitive condition, I was unable to
shape the cavitysoas to retain the plug; and after
two or three trials, I recommended the use of Mon
tague's Balm, which so deadened the surface of the
cavity as to enable me to shape it perfectly, and
plug the tooth permanently.

We invite the attention of all persons afflicted
with that most excruciating complaint, the tooth
ache, to the advertisment of Mr. Montague, publish

high standing and respectability of Mr- Montague,
(with whom, we are acquainted,) that his medicine
is not one of those thousand empiricisms which are
constantly palmed upon tho credulity of the public.
In addition to the many testimonial"? which he has
furnished of its efficacy, we will state a fact which
comes under our own knowledge. A lady of this
village had been suffering for several weeks with
tooth-ache, and was immediately and permanently
relieved by the application of the balm. ? Doydlon

Dear Sir ? while we were in Norfolk on our return -
from Petersburg we saw a man at the Union Hotel
(the place that we put up at) who had the tooth-ache
very badly, and could get no relief: we recommend
ed your Balm, and showed, or rather went with him
to the place where it could be obtained, He bought
a bottle and tried it, and in less than five minutes he
was relieved. He Raid he had tried every thing he
could think of at different times, but this was the
first thing he ever met with that ever re ieved him.
He said Be would recommend it to every body, and
was willing to give his certificate as to the efficacy
of it. '

H. B. Montague,
Dear Sir. ? I bought a bottle of your Balm from
Messrs , in Petersburg in February, chiefly be
cause I had a servant who had suffered most excru
ciatingly for some, months. We had tried all tho
remedies which. were in our reach; an attempt was
made to extract the tooth* btrt it broke off I caused
the Balm to be used after warming it in a cup? this
was repeated with a second spoonful, when she
was entirely relieved. The next night she came a
gain for more, saying that a tooth on the other 6ide
ached and also requested some for her husband,
whom, she said, had been suffering with the s imt.
disease for some weeks. I cheerfully gave it, and
the next day on inquiry found that both had been
relieved. One of my neighbors of high respectabili
ty sent to me for some for his wife. I have this day
seen him. and he assures me that it afforded imme
diate relief, and there has been no return ; before,
she suffered almost constantly, and could not bear
to let cold water touch the tooth, and for two nights
previous to the application she had not been able to
sleep scarcely at all . Now she has no inconveni
encefror.i cold water or any thing else that comes in
contact with the tooth. The night before lasthe
used some with one of his men with the same suc
cess, and says ifhe could have had this remedy fif
teen years ago, and known its efficacy, he would
willingly have given a hundred dollars lor it. I have
written in haste, giving a plain statement of facts.
Yours resoccrully,
WM. F. R. RUFF1N.
Albemarle, April, 1836.
Dear Sir: ? Several persons with diseased gums,
or scurv y, have used the Balm, and are so much de
lighted with it, that we are charged to keep a sup
ply. The ladies are using it with the tooth-brush,
and say that it is the best thing for the teeth and
gums they have ever used. Allow us to congratu
late you and the public, at the discovery ar.d use of
the only real remedy (except drawing) for tooth
ache, that has yet been discovered.
Kespectfully yours,
K. It. & T. T. G.
Persons taking medicine, wiih a view-to salivation,
should, by all means, use at least a bottle of the
Balm with the lootli-brush, (applying it three or
' four times a day) as an astringent, in order to have
the gums in a healthy slate, fur the protection of the
teeth. After mercurial action, it should be used free
ly, to cause the gums to adhere at once to the teeth,
to guard against looseness, and falling out. Indeed,
cit is the iKashiiMt Thf* month. during c*livaItipn
that can be used. If too strong at first, add a small
portion of water.
It is with peculiar pleasuro that the proprietor
hears of the good already done, while he contem
plates the relief yet to be afforded by this widely
spreading remedy. lie regrets, however, that he
has not been able to supply the demand. The pre
parations, though large, were not based on its sud
den and unexampled popularity. T^e demand has
surpassed all calculation ; but arrangements are now
making, which will enable all applicants to get a
supply as it is ordered.
When applied according to directions given on
the botile, it has never failed to afford immediate
and permanent relief. It also arrests the decay in
defective teeth, and relieves that soreness which so
frequently renders a strong tooth useless. The
application and remedy are simple , innocent and r.o
unpleasant , and the large number of persons in dif
ferent sections of the c ountry, that have already
experienced such delightful and salutary effects
from the use of the Halm, are ready to bear, (for
the public good,) their testimony, to its unrivaled
qualities. It is an Indian remedy obtained singular
ly and unexpectedly, and may be regarded by the
civilized world, as the most valuable discovery of the
Red Man of the Woods.? PRICE ONE DOLLAR
