Every thoughtful citizen appreciates tbe value of these establishments for thc amelioration of suffering. But they do not cover tho w hole ground; indeod, it is impossible, in tho nature of things, that tho amount of good they do should bo at all in pro? portion to tho popular need. They are confined, principally, to largo citiea. To tho sick man in thc remote West, for cxamplo, of what UBe is tho New York City Hospital, or tho New York Dispen? sary?

It is a medicino for tho whole community, easily obtain? able by all its members. At this period of tho year, when thc "slant sun of February" is beginning to evoko unwholesome vapors from thc earth, and tho "fever and aguo season" is closo at band, this excellent vegetable preparation should bo taken as a fortiflor of tho system.
