CAL1FOKN1A GOLD! DISCOVERED BY 8IGNOR DWLVEAR'S GOLDOMETER!

THE

Gold Seeker'# Guide I OR, Sccret Art of finding Gold, Silver, Iron,

Lead, Copper, Coal, and other Mineral Riches. The first discovery of Gold in California made hy DON JOSE D'ALVEAR, an eminent Spanish Geologist, Chemist, and Natural Philosopher, by means of a newly invented Magnetic in strument, called The Goldomcter, or Gold Seeker's Guide!

Kignor D'Alvear has just arrived at New York from the Gold regions of California, by way of Panama, Chagres, and New Orleans, bringing with him a very large quantity of gold ore, valued at nearly one million of dollars, which he collected there, long before the existence of the Gold mines became known to the residents of California generally.

History of the Discovery.

Signor D'Alvear went out to California nearly two years ago, in consequence of certain information which he had received of the geological character of that country, with the firm Delief that vast mines of precious metals would be revealed there, upon careful investigation. He was encouraged to this enterprise, also, by his confidence in the powers of a certain magnetic instrument which he had invented, called the "Goldometer," by whose aid he expected to be directed at once to the "Gold Placers," if any such existed. Nor were his expectations disappointed. His scientific calculation? proved to be founded in truth and profound wisdom, and his new instrument, the "Goldometer," fulfilled his highest hopes. In less than two months after reaching California, he struck upon •one of the richest gold mines in that country, upon an obscure branch of the Sacramento river, in a gorge of hills extremely rocky and difficult of access, and seldom visited by the native Californians. Disguising his object under the pretence of purely scientific research, he obtained the nid of some fifteen ar twenty simple and faithful Indians, and steadilv pursued his task, collecting often more than $3,000 worth of gold in a single day, which ho concealed in a deep ravine, without exciting-any suspicion whatever, until after the discovery of gold at Capt. Sutter's mill, when the mountains were ransacked by gold seekers, and Signor D'Alvear's "gold placer," the richest in all California, wasbe.«et with greedy adventurers. It is now found that the real mines or sources of the gold, lie in the gorges of the mountains, and not in the beds or sands of the rivers. Previous to leaving California, Signor D'Alvear sold his instrument, the Goldometer, a very imp*rfect one, lor #3,000. The person who purchased it confidently expected to make a'handsome fortune, by simply finding "gold placers" and selling out the right of digging to the gold workers. Manufacture of the Goldometer, and publication of the Guide.

Signor D'Alvear, in compliance with the request of numorou" scientific gentlemen, has commenced the mnnufneture of his new Magnetic Instrument, the ILDOMKTER, which he now offers for sale, in the United States, at the remarkably low prico of THREE DOLLARS ench, accompanied by full instructions for use, and a#vari•ety of Philosophical hints drawn from the ancient and modern sciences, or

The Art of finding Mines of Gold I Silver, Platinum. Quicksilver, Coal, Iron, Copper, Jjead, and other Mineral Riches, the whole being giv^h in a publication callyjf the

Gold Seekem Guide

This new work, and the GOLDOMETER, are both now ready for sale. The GOLDOMETER is so simple an instrument, that a child may learn to operate with it in five minutes. It is not affected hy climate, moisture, or any other known cause, (except the natural magnet.) and will retain its power of pointing out mineral riches in tho earth For any number of years. By the nid of the Guide any person may use the instrument with perfect success.

Farmers and liiind Owners. Farmers and Land Owners throughout the United States, who have reason to suspect the existence of anv kind of Mineral riches upon their lands, should avail themselves of this opportunity to test that fact, hy the surest of all known tests, before the abundance of discoveries in all parts of the country shall have lessened this source of wealth in their estate.

Adventurers to California.

Persons going to California cannot make a bettor investment than by nurchasing one of these instruments, which will not only be worth fifty times its value there, to sell again, but will hoof inestimable worth to those who go in search of Gold, as has been proved by the most abundant experiment both in California and tho United States.

Testimonials.

Signor D'Alvear does not deem it necessary tj encumber this notice with along list of testimonials, in proof of the value of hi* GOLDOMhTLR. and GOLD

SEEKER'S

results of his labors in California, and the discovery, this very week, of fresh veins of Gold in Virginia. and beds of coal in Rhode Island, by its use, are alone sufficient to stamp it as the greatest discovery of tho age. Nothing but the extreme cheapness of the instrument, and his desire to see it used for the benefit of mankind induces him to dispose of it at tho low price for which he otters it.— Besides this, his own desire for wealth is nearly satisfied.

The following testimonials, in proof of the value of the Goldometer, selected from a great number equally satisfactory, must suffice for the present

Wistar's Kal«nw« of Willi Claerrr,

The great Remedy for Consumption of the Lungs, Affections of the Liver, Asthma, Bronchitis Pains or Weakness of the Breast or Lungs, and all other Affections of the Pulmonary Organs.

IMPORTANT CAUTION. Beware of a base counterfeit of Wisfar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, signed by one Wm. M. Speer who, in order to palm his vile imitation upon the public, has obtained a fac simUc of our bot*le, and copied our label of directions verbatim, substituting his own name for that of Henry Wistar, M. D. which is found upon the genuine.

Remember, the outside label or wrapper of the genuine Balsam is a finely executed steel plate engraving bearing the signature of Henry Wistar, M. D., and Sandforuand &. Purk—none other can be genuine.

The Eighth Wonder of ttie World. Many who have witnessed the extraordinary cures effected by the genuine Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry, seem to regard it as the eighth wonder of the world. "Why." say they, "the Wild Cherry Bark and the Island Moss, (the two chief ingredients of this wondeiful compound,) have been prescribed thro'out time immemorial by the best physicians—but never beiore have cures so extraordinary been performed."

The reason is obvious. The proprietors of Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry do not claim for their compound any far fetched, mysterious, miraculous power. They have openly acknowledged thesini pie nature of its elements, and only claim for their great and invaluable discovery the exclusive secret of &TTHAT JUDICIOUS COMBINATION of ingredients which «'0 to make up this richest of curative compounds.^}

The most skillful and scientific physicians now prescribe this medicine in their practice, while neglect of doctor's of little practice nnd mean contracted minds, although they do all their churlish spirits can do to injure this—the people's favorite remedy—they are at the same time compelled to acknowledge itsinnocentqualities.

IlADDONFiEt.n,N. J.. April, 1843.

On or about the 13th of October, 1841, I WBS taken with a violent pain in my side, near the liver, which continued for about five days, and was followed by the breaking of an ulcer or an abscess which relieved the pain a little, but caused me to throw up a great quantity of offensive matter, and also much blood. Being greatly alarmed at this, I applied to a physician but he replied that he thought he could do but little forme, except give me some mercury pills, which I refused to take, feeling satisfied that they could do no good. Many other remedies were then procured by my wife and friends, but none did me any good and the discharge of blood and corruption still continued every few days, and at last became so offensive that 1 could scarcely breathe. I was also seized with a violent cough, which at times caused me to raise more blood than I had done before and my disease continued in this way, still growing worse, until February, when all thoughts of my recovery was given up, and my friends all thought I would die of a galloping consumption. At this moment, when my life was spparently drawing near its close, I heard of Dr. Wistar's Balmrm of Wild Cherry, and got a bottle, which relieved me immediately and by the use of only three bottles of this medicine, all my pain were rpmoved my cough and spitting of blood and corruption entirely stopped, and in a few weeks my health was restored, so as to enable me to work at my trade, (which is a carpenter,? and up to this time I have enioyed good health.

II.'G.'FarrcIl's Arabian Liniment*

THIS

celebrated medicine, skillfully composed as It is of the most healing balsams, can n®f» er £uil to cure almost every alHiction that can bs alleviated by an external remedy Its superiority above nil other liniments is proven by themiracalqua cure»it performs, und by the great and constantly increasing demand there is for this valuable Arabian Preparation. Tho Arabs, from their wandering mode of life, are often afflicted with distressing diseases, and also subject to accidents 6f the most severe kind consequently they would require an external application of great virtue to eliect a cure. This alone must repder a skillful compound of healing properties a matter of vital importance to themselves and the well known care and attention thev bestow upon their horses, so noted for beauty ana speed, must also greatly increase their desire to possess a really valuable Liniment. is well known that the Arabians are zealous students of botany, and the ferule and beautiful region which skirls the Desert dfbounds with rare plants and odorous woods, whence thev procure those gums and fragrant balsams of whicn this incomparable liniment is composed. It hasaccom« pltshed the most extraordinary cures of rheumatism, ode application removing the most acute pain, ana & continued use effecting cures of cases of long standing and of the greatest severity. In loss (jf power of the limbs, or paralysis, it stands at 4be, head of ail remedies, restoring the use of limbs ip persons who long were a burden to themselves jpid all others—numerous cases o? which, wherein the flesh had entirely wasted away, leaving nothing but the dry skin on tlie bone and the limb rendered useless and without feeling, this allpowerful medicine caused healthy flesh to grow and fill tiptoe shrivelled part, and restored strength to the limb. It is a specific in affections of the spine, many cases of tnree years' standing having been entirely cured by the use of it. We say try it, and prove to your own satisfaction the rare qualities it possesses. It is unequalled for sprains, bruises, cramps, cuts, all swellings, salt rheum, frozen limbs, bums, tumors, pains of all kinds, sore ejes, &c. &cT and is superior to all other remedies for horse flesh in almost all cases which require an external application. For sweeney it has no equal alsq, spavin, splint, galls, wounds* spraiQB, scratches, sore eyes, swellings, bruises* &.c. Ac. also, fistula, pole-evil, big-head and ring1 bone.

Mr. H. G. Farrell: Dear Sir—Having in my lifetime owned many horses. I am pretty well acquainted with the diseases they are subject to, as weH as the remedies usually applied, and must say that I never used or heara of any medicine that was hajf so good as your Liniment. I would recommend it with thegreatestconfidence to all who have liOftes. They should always have it on hand, so that it coald be applied immediately in caae of accident, and thereby save the life of many a valuable horse I have used it in the very worst casea of sw.eeney with entire success also splint, sprains, bruises, galls^. wounds, sore eyes, &c. Two most extraoramary cures I must merition in particular. I got up very early one morning, and on looking into my pasture discovered my favorite horse limp in^ and dragging a rail after him. On going up close to him, to my amazement and horror, tl.e rail was sticking in his stomach, between tho flanks, to the depth of flight inches, and so tightly that it took three hard pulls to extricate it after which the poor animal suffered the utmost agony, I never dreamed of his recovery, and supposed that no human hand could save him. Tho well known virtues of your Liniment flashed

mind, and it was immediately applied. By tho next day I had the gratification of witnessing the commencement of Tiis recovery, and in six day» thereafter I rode him to Peoria, as sound as everf and would not take $150 for him now. Thflf other case was this. One of my men got his leg in the teeth of a thrashing machine, and it was only by a miracle that he was not instantly killed. His leg was horribly mutilated, though no bones were broken. Your Liniment was applied, and in five days he went to work again, lie fully believes mat but for your Liniment he would never have recovered. With every wish for the success of the Arabian Liniment, am truly yours.

HENRYS. AIKEN.

Aiken's mills, near Peoria, March 1, 1847. [Read the following extraordinary cure ot a spinal affection and loss of use of the limbs.l

Mr. H. G. Farrell: Please send me oy tha bearer another dollar bottle of your Arabian Lini nient, which will be enough, I think, to complete* ly cure my dear child. 1 nave often thought that 1 would sit down nnd furnish you with an account of my poor child's situation, so that you might make it public, and thus be the cause of as much benefit to some others of my fellow beings as it has been to me. She laid for six months without the slightest power or control of her liinbs whatever, and suffered the most agonizing pain the greater portion of the time. Even her neck waa perfectly stiff, and so painful that she could not near to have her head moved in the least. Thus was she for six months, during all which time we had to carry her about on a chair when she wished to change her ulace. We had three of the best physicians in tne whole country attending her,_ ouc they could do her no good. Finally, one of them (the last to give her up) said he could do no more for her. and that, as I wished to get your Liniment, I could do so, adding that he Knew it waa good, and might help her. I got it accordingly, and she began to recover after a few applications. She can now use all of her limbs freely, nnd can walk tolerably well. We are now applying it over the spine, which the doctors say is the seat of the disease, and we expect one bottle more to cure her as well as ever she was. We have used it also for sprains, bruises, burns and cuts, with like success. Hoping that thisgreat remedy will be spread over the whole country. I nm yours truly,
