CARTER'S SPANISH MIXTURE.

THE GREAT PURIFIER OF THE BLOOD!

THE BEST ALTERATIVE KNOWN!!

NOT A PARTICLE OF MERCURY IN IT.

An infallible remedy for Scrofula, King's Evil, Rheumatism, Obstinate Cutaneous Eruptions, Pimples or Postules on the Face, Blotches, Boils, Ague and Fever, Chronic Sore Eyes, Ringworm, or Tetter, Scald-head, Enlargement and pain of the Bones and Joints, Salt Rheum, Stubborn Ulcers, Syphilitic Disorders, and all diseases arising from an injudicious use of Mercury, Imprudence in Life, or Impurity of the Blood.

This great remedy, which has become so rapidly and so justly celebrated for its extraordinary efficacy in relieving and curing many of the most obstinate and terrible forms of disease with which mankind is afflicted, is now offered to the public, with the confident assurance that no Medical discovery ever made has been so eminently successful in curing Scrofula and all diseases of the Blood as Carter's Spanish Mixture. The proprietors are receiving by every mail most flattering and astonishing details of cures made in all parts of the country, and in most cases where the skill of the best physicians had been tried in vain. Its power over Blood is truly remarkable, and all diseases arising from impurity of that great Seat of Life, have been relieved and cured without a single failure out of the thousands who have used it. Carter's Spanish Mixture contains no Mercury, Opium, Arsenic, or any dangerous drugs, but is composed of Roots and Herbs, combined with other ingredients of known virtue, and may be given to the youngest infant or most debilitated invalid, without the least possible hesitation. We have only room for short extracts from the volumes of testimony in our possession, and all from gentlemen of the highest respectability, well known in their various localities. Please read for yourselves.

We take great pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the merits of Carter's Spanish Mixture as a remedy for diseases of the blood. It enjoys a reputation in this city unequalled by any other preparation.-Daily Dispatch, Richmond, Va.

The Hon. John M. Botts, of Va., says he considers it a matter of duty to add his testimony to the virtues of Carter's Spanish Mixture, from actual personal observation of its remarkable curative powers for the diseases in which it is used.

We have been cured of a violent and protracted Liver disease by Carter's Spanish Mixture. We know it to be all it professes.-Ed. S. S. Democrat, Petersburg, Va. We have found from personal trial that Carter's Spanish Mixture is a truly valua ble medicine.-Editor Vergennes Independent, Vermont.

Great Cure of Scrofula.-A pressman in our employ was cured of Scrofula of a virulent character by a few bottles of Carter's Spanish Mixture, after everything else had failed. Other cures which have come under our own observation, proves to us conclusively, that it is really a valuable medicinal agent. We take great pleasure in calling the attention of the afflicted to its merits.-Richmond Republican.

Old Sores, Ulcers and Obstinate Eruptions of the Skin.-See the cure of Mr. Harwood and others detailed in our Almanac. The number of such cases cured by Carter's Spanish Mixture, precludes the possibility of inserting them in an advertisement.

Neuralgia.-Mr. F. Boyden, formerly of the Astor House, N. Y., but more recently proprietor of the Exchange Hotel, Richmond, was cured of Neuralgia by Carter's Spanish Mixture. Since that time, he says he has seen it cure more than a hundred cases of the diseases in which it is used. He never fails to recommend it to the afflicted.

Rheumatism. Mr. John F. Harrison, Druggist, of Martinsburg, Va., writes of the singular cure of a violent case of Rheumatism. The patient could not walk. A few bottles entirely cured him.

Scrofula.-Mr. Harrison also writes of a great cure of Scrofula, in the person of a young lady, (of three years standing,) which all the doctors could not reach. Six bottles made a perfect cure of her.

Sold in Richmond, Va., by BENNETT, BEERS & FISHER; PURCELL, LADD & CO., and Druggists generally. Price-$1 per bottle-Six for $5.

A. MORRIS,

PUBLISHER AND BOOKSELLER,

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA,

HAS nearly ready a new and improved edition of the rare and valuable Historical

Work:

Memoirs of the War in the Southern Department of the United States. By Major General HENRY LEE, Commander of the Partisan Legion during the American War of the Revolution; With a Biographical Sketch of the Author; and a preface by BENSON J. LOSSING. Third edition corrected; With a complete index and table of cases. Edited by S. ADAMS LEE, Esq.

Extract from the Preface.

"It is one of the most valuable and reliable of all the contributions that have been made to our revolutionary history.

"It is the story of an actor in the scenes described; looking back from a period a quarter of a century after they had transpired. Then his partisan feelings had all subsided; the hot blood of his youth had become cooled, and he was better fitted to write dispassionately than if he had taken up the pen when he laid down his sword; and that is the chronicle contained in the following pages. It has ever been regarded as a faithful record, which even bitter political and personal animosity or jealousy have not ventured to malign.

"The work has long been out of print and is sought for with avidity by students of our past history and antiquarian collectors. In obedience to the demands of a public want this new edition of the Memoirs, with a Biographical Sketch of General Lee and his funeral oration on the death of Washington have been prepared."

PROSPECTUS

OF THE

SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER

FOR THE YEAR 1856.

TWENTY-SECOND VOLUME.

In issuing the Prospectus of the Twenty-Second Volume of the SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, the Proprietors rely solely on the encouraging letters and promises of the friends of the Messenger to aid them in extending its circulation, and they beg to assure the public that no exertions will be remitted on their part to maintain the high character of the work, and to challenge the patronage of all who value sterling literary merit. For Twenty-One Years, the Messenger has endeavored to reflect faithfully the Southern mind, while disdaining all narrow and sectional views, and has been alone among the monthly periodicals of America, in defence of the PECULIAR INSTITUTIONS OF THE SOUTHERN STATES. To this office it will still be devoted, and will be prompt to repel assaults upon the South, whether they come under the specious garb of fiction, or in the direct form of anti-slavery pamphlets. At this critical juncture, while our enemies are employing literature as their most potent weapons of attack, the Southern people will surely not withhold their encouragement from a work whose aim it shall be to strike blows in their defence.

The MESSENGER will, as heretofore, present its readers with

Reviews, Historical and Biographical Sketches, Novels, Tales, Travels, Essays, Poems, Critiques, and Papers on the Army, Navy, and other National Subjects.

With a view to ensure a larger circulation of the MESSENGER, the Proprietors, though they intend greatly increasing the size of the work, have reduced the Price of Subscription, which is now only

THREE DOLLARS PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCE,

OR FOUR DOLLARS IF NOT PAID BEFORE THE FIRST OF JULY IN ANY YEAR.

CLUBS-Remitting us Fifteen Dollars in one letter, will be entitled to Six Copies. The Editorial and Critical department of the Messenger will continue under the charge of

JOHN R. THOMPSON, ESQ.,

And will embrace copious notes on current literature and reviews of all new American or Foreign works of general interest and value. The Editor's opinions will be always fearlessly and honestly avowed.

The Business Department is conducted by the undersigned, to whom all communications of a business nature must be addressed.

MACFARLANE, FERGUSSON & CO.

Law Building, Franklin Street, Richmond, Va. DECEMBER 3RD, 1855.

Booksellers, by ordering copies of the Mesenger at once, shall receive it at greatly reduced prices.

AGENTS.-Wm. F. Cook and Wm. F. Tebbs, are authorised to collect and receive the names of new subscribers for the Messenger in Virginia.

Postmasters throughout the Union, are requested to act as Agents in getting subscribers for us, for which they will be allowed 12 per cent. for all monies remitted to us.
