Medical. THE WONDER OF THE AGE IT has long been the de-ie of the Medical Profession to discover a remedy which would counteract the many diseases which attack tbe human frame, and at the same time have a b:nefi<:iul effect on the sys'ein. The animal, vegetable and mineral kingdoms have each been searched in their turn and though many valuable remedies have been discvoered, yet none have compleely come up to tbe standard sought for. It is not astonishing when we reflect that the o'd world has b-en inhabited for thousands of years, in different parts and at different time 9by peoples poaseasing gr:at knowledge of medicine and the kindred studie 1 ; that the vast laboratory of nature has been explored in every part and the search well nigh given up as boptle s. Tne specific that men sought for in van in tbe old world, h's at length been brought »o light in the new. Tbe place in which v his been found is Australia and the name of the especial mc-mber of the veee'able kingdom from which it has beenextr:cted is the gum tree, or in botany, the Eucalyptus Globu'u«. Many valuable remedies have been produced from this wonderful tree, bnt by f-r the best is PETTIT'S EUCALYPIUS BALSAM. Prom the early days of Australia when the bushmen and mineia gradually became acquainted with the virtues of the gum trees, medical &citncc was dir^c ed to its virtues and many efforts w re ma<Je to extract all that was beruficialand bealinp, and leave behitid sny active principle that might, whilst destroying some disease, partly assist in producing another. Time after time extracts were obtained, and sold under various names such os "Eucalypti Extract," "Eucalyptus Giobulus" and many others. These though highly beneficial as fir as thej we;> , failed to attain the entire object sought Among those most persevering in research, was M. Leon Pettit, a French chemist well-known for his valuable contribu'ions to scientific journals. This gentleman, seeing the effect of the gum trees in the marshes of Italy and the low miasmatic swampy lunds of his own country, where they had been introduced for the purpose of restoring health to the fever stricken people, made a study of the tree- Like the renowned Pasteur, who, working in atother portion of the same field, is earning the eternal gratitude of the human race for his wonderful discoveries as to the trsatmeut of hydrophobia and s'milar diseases, M. Pettit experienced a facinatiotj fur his study until jt became an engrossing passion. Ho tben went to Melbourne resolved to thoroughly analyse every constituent part of the tree uutil he succeeded in producing a medicine that he couid justly say CURES EVH.IIY DISEASE of the lung?, and all chest and throat complaints. Thi3 he bas after many years of anxious labor and study at length arrived at and he givea the fruit of his research to the v.orld in the hope that much suffering and misery may be avoided. This invaluable specific is infallable for Cough?, Colds, Jnflueuza, Catabeh WHoopiNa Cough, Hay Fever, Beohchitis, Hoabsbnbss, Spittiwg of Blood, Diphtheria, Sobe Throat, Quinsy Los 3cp Vcick, Lartmgitis Asthma, Ceobp, and Consumption. It searches deeply and effectually into the foundat : on of the disease auo builds up and repairs tbe weak and disordered tissues restoring them to a normal condition of health Its general healing powers are very great and it acts like a charm where tbe tissues have been injured.
