, I-Vonder/_it.l cure of Consumplion.—Altliough

Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort has found

hundreds of advocates, and has produced so

large a number of Testimonials in its favor, I

cannot withhold my small meed of praise. Be-

ing predisposed to consutnption, both from pe

culiar formation and hereditary transmission, I

tried every means to check this disease, and

strengthen a naturally weak constitution. I

spent two years at Pisa, one in Rome. two in

Florence, and another in the south of France,

seeking, meantime. the advice of the best phy-

sicians. Two years since I returned to this

country in about the same situation as when I

left. Iliad seen in the reading rooms of Eu

rope much said in favor of Dr. T-aylor’s Balsam
of Liverwort, and as soon as I arrived in this
city, I used it, and in three months I was so
well I concluded I could safely pass the winter
here, and did so. I have used an occasional
bottle now and then during the time. but am
now in as good health as possible. My cough
has wholly ceased. and my lungs has every
feeling of health. Dr. G. Smith, and Dr. Post,
of this city, were my physicians, and now say
theyjbelicvcd me incurable. JAMES HILL,

Western Hotel, Courtlantl street, N. Y.

Covsiiinpli on and Li vcr C'o.'izj2laint.—Sufi'ering
36 I have for three years with these diseases, I
feel from my heart for all persons equally un-
fortunate, and therefore I big of them, if they
love life and health; ifihey love their families
and friends, not to lay and die under the hands
of mercury doctors or their useless trash, but
try Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of Livcrwort. This
medicine cured me when I was soill I could not
turn over in my bed without assistance, and the
mineral doctors saidl could not livea week, yet
this vegetable medicine cured me in six weeks.
I had a hackingcough, pain in the side, raising
ofmatter. night sweats, and was wasted to the
bone; also,inward fever. J. B. MILLS,
Milkman, Newtowii, L. I.
Raising of Bloocl.—This disease is easily
cured by the proper medicine. Mr. Newbury,
266 Bowery. used to raise blood in large quan-
tities,'both by day and night; besides this he
had a severe cough and pain in the breast; yet
after using every other medicine, he was ctired
by Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort. This
man is a cartman. and let all others who cannot
afi“ord,to be idle, follow his example, if they are
sick and use this medicine. It will restore dis-
eased lungs and liver in a very short time.
C’ons2lm'p'i'ioncu.recl.—My son, having a violent
cold, used to cough violently, raising quantities
of thick putrid matter, and finally he cotild not
turn over in bed from weakness. He manifested
every symptom ofconfirmed consumption. For
six years he had been subject to the asthma.
His physicians, Di-s. Vermeulc and Anderson,
said he was incurable, and must soon die. Yet
I Was determined to try Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of
Liverwort, and strange as it may appear, this
medicine has fully restored his health.

trouble ofexamining into Ilie merits of the rival
claimants for their original proprietorsliip ofihis
medicine, and can scarcely repress the indigna-
tion we feel at the imposition practised upon us
by Mr. J. Burritt, of No. 12 Gold street, who
introduced "to our clerk as the veritable Dr. Geo.
Taylor, a person by the name of Wilson. Mr.
B. afterwards admitted that it was not Dr. Tay-
lor, and that the papers exhibited to us signed
Geo. Taylor, M. D. were not signed by him at
all, but were written by this Dr. Wilson, by vir-
tue, as was alleged, ofa power of attorney, giv-
en by Dr. Taylor, but which he had never seen
no more than he had the person professing to
act, under such authority. \Ve have conversed
with the gentlemanly proprietor /of the Balsam
ufLiverwori, 375 Bowery. who has been known
to us as the advertiser and vcnder oftliis medi-
cine for seven years past, and who is still at the
same place.—and he has given us the most
complete testimonials of his right. and that all
others who offer the article forsale, (except man-
ufactured by him) are practising imposition up-
on the public.

It will be seen by the article below, that we
are not the only conductors of the press who
have been imposed upon by Buriitt and his as-
sociates. \Ve have directed all advertisements
from their concern to be discontinued from our
columns; and ifotlier editors are imposed on in
this way it will not be our fault.—N. Y. Signal.

Tiii: BALSAM or LIVERWORT As.aiiv.—We
are compelled, once more, and we hope for the
last time, to allude to the claims of two con-
tending parties, selling the invaluable medicine
of Taylor's Balsaui of Liverwort. \Ve have
been led into this controversy——tliis trouble and
difficulty—by the impudent and shallow pre-
tensions of Mr. “Ito. J. Burritt, of 12 Gold st.
-ew ho displayed to us a number of documents
purporting to have been signed by the identical
George Taylor, whose name the medicine in
question bears,giving him authority not_oiily to
sell the medicine-—but auihority to him alone;
and further to use and sign his name for all pur-
poses coiinccted with the Balsam of Liverwori.
\Ve are now perfectly satisfied that the said
George Taylor never gave Burritt the use of
his signature, at any time, or under any circuni-
staticcs. \Ve are also satisfied, and the more
so after the perusal of Burritt‘s documentary
humhug, that the only place to get the genuine
article ol'Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort, is at
375 Bowery. \Ve believe the original recipe is
there—and there only. One word more, and
ourtask is done. There is no such person at
3 1-2 Chamber street as George Taylor. M. D.
as represeritediii Burritt’s advertisements. We
have made personal application at this place,
and satisfied ourselfoftlie fact. Now to cuttlie
matter short, we have requested our publishers
to take out these fraudulent advertisements from
the columns of the Planet, atid it will be seen
that they have complied wiili the request: and
all editors of papers will do well to follow our
example. by ceasing at onccto give currency to
the pretensions of a man capable of practising
such high handed deceptioii.—lV. Y. Planet.

T.ivLon’s BALSAM or LIVER.WORT.-C8u-
tion !—You cannot be too cautious of whom
you purchase this medicine. There are many
imitations. \Ve especially notice that made at
3 1-2 Chamber street. The proprietor of this
paper (N. Y. Suii,) informs us that. the wife of
a highly respectable physician of this city was
injured by taking the stutfmade there in imita-
tion of this medicine. Her lziisband analysed
it, and found it to be spurious, poisonous. Be-
wore then and buy none tliatdocs riotconie froui

DR. '1‘Avi.oit’s BALSA_M OF LlVERWOR'1‘.—
This medicinal preparation appears to have es-
tablished a very enviable reputation, and as a
consequence, there is rivalry in the sale of it,
each claiming to be the‘~genuine establishment.
By reference to the adv. of Dr.Taylor himself in
another column, it will be scen tliat his only au-
thorized agent is Mr. Burritt. 12 Gold st. who
by the way, has shown us the legaldocumems in
proofoftliis fact. As the public are at all times
liable to imposition by spurious preparations of‘
any really good article, we are induced to add
our opinion that the Balsam obtained ofMr. B.
may be depended upon as genuine. It is liard-
ly necessary to add that the itivcntor ofa really
useful medicine must be a skillful and experi-
enced physician aml those who make use ofhis
remedies will doubtless find their account in
consulting him. Dr. Taylor's office is M3;

IVARD'S VEGETABLE HAIR OIL.
T HIS Oil possesses the peculiar property sr.
long, but vainly sought for in other vegez.
able oils, that of reproducing a new growth or
hair on heads totally bald. So great are its
nourishing properties, which it readily impar:s
to the roots of the hair, that it requires but a
short time to produce a new growth, and but few
applications to check that falling of the hair,
which so often occurs, especially after sickness.
It prevents the hair turning grey, and when it
begins to turn, may be easily checked and re-
st.ored to its natural beauty by applying the oil.
This oil gives an agreeable fragrance, and is
preferable to any other for perfnmiiig, curling
and glossing the hair.
Ladies and gentlemen of the highest rank
have patronized this oil very extensively ; and
such has been its effects in every country where
it has been iuirodiiced, that it receives the
decided preference. '

RESURRECTION OR PERSIAN
PILLS.
HESE pills raise from the greatest weak-
ness, distress, and suffering, to a state of
strength, health, and happiness. The name of
‘these pills originated from the circumstance of
the medicine being found only in the cemetries
ofPersia. This vegetable production being of
a peculiar kind, led to experimcntslaslo its
medical qualities and virtues. In half a centu-
ry it became an established medicine for the
diseases oftliat country. The extract of this
singular production was iiitiodiiced into some
parts of Europe in the year 1783, and used by
many celebrated physicians in curing certain
diseases, where all other medicines had been
used in vain. Early in the year I702. the, ex-
tract was combined with a certain vegetable
imported from Dura Baca, in the East ,Iri..lics,
and formed into pills. The admirable effect of
this compound upon the human system,led phy-
siciaus and families into its general use. Their
long established character. their universal and
healing virtues. the detergent and cleansing
qualities of their specificial action upon the
glandular part ofthe system, are such as will
sustain their repntaiioii and general use in the
American Republic. '

May be ~readily Cured by the use of
Rev. I. Covert’s- Balm of Life;
New and highly approved remedy for the
A above, and a.'l kindred diseases—exten.
sively used and recommended by the Ilfzlical
Faculty, to whom the recipe has been freely
made known. It has also been used with great
advantage in Dyspepsia, land other similar'dis<
cases of the Liver and Stomach.

iiessed. with much pain, the great and increas-
ing destruction ofthe life and health ofso man-
y of his fellow beings by Consumption. Bron-
chitas, and the various and numerous other dis-:
eases of the Lungs and \Vindpipe. was induq.
ed to direct his attention and inquiries to the dis-
covery of a more efiicacious remedy than has
lieretof_ore,been presented to the public,

With much care combinagion and study he
has prepared a medicine, which he now prestints
to an intelligent and discerning public. with the
utmost confidence in its virtue and siiccessin the
cure oftlie diseases for which it is recommend.
ed-and which lie is willing to submit to the
most scrutinizing test of the Medical Faculty
and to rest its reputation upon their decision; I

It contains no ingredients that can impair‘ ire
constitution under any circumstances. It will
found greatly serviceable in colds, coughs ard
all diseases of the Lungs, and Bronchia, snob as
Phthisic, Asthsma, Whooping cough, Group,
acute and chronic Inflauiatioiis of the
and Windpipe. ' ,

By the Dyspeptic it has been used with decid-
ed advantage, and is serviceable to personsla.
boring under debility of any kind, ifus.-_.d ac.
coiding to the directions. To the consumptive,
it has invariably afforded almost immediate re.
lief. and in several instances has wrought ‘al-
most a permanent cure. It is not, however, ex-
pected to efii-ct zi cure upon such as are in the last
stages of the disease; but even to such it will
be louiid to give much relief and greatly pio-
long that remnant of life which has_ become so
nearly extinguished by the dread destroyer.

The proprietor is now receiving almost daily
testimonials of the liigliest respectability, from
physicians, clergynien aitd others, who have be,
come acquainted with its nature and effect, a-
uiong which are the following:

“I have examined a recipe for a compound
called the Balm of Life, in the hands of Rev.
Isaac Covert. and have to state that I consider
it a useful combination of medicines calculated
to be very beneficial in chronic diseases of the
limgs and air passages. AVERY J. SKILTON,"
Troy, June 27. 1839. ' Physician and Surgeon}

I fully concur in the above recommendation.

To 5- BARRE'1"I‘.P’Iysician and Surgeon,
New York city.

This certifies that having examined the Rev.
I. Covert's Balm of Life in all its component
parts, we do believe it to be one ofthe best com
pounds for coughs, consumptioris, chronic inflnni
motions, etc. of which we have any knowledge
and do most cordially recommend its use to all
alliicted with the above named diseases. ,

Rev I Covert : My Dear Sir-—In reference tlo
your medicine, I deem it my duty to state that
I had for a long time been atllicted with a clim-
nic broncliitas, and its usual accompaniments;
and was induced to try your preparation, on the
assurance from medical men that it contained no
hazardous ingredients. '
The result has been the allayirig febrile irrita-
ions, and the gradual restoration ofbealtby fuuc-'
:ons to the throat, so that I am enabled to return
ii the labors ofthe desk. -

of all persons similarly allected.
