The emperor and empress of Austria

visitors front all parts of the world, and
splendidly decorated. The ambassa

Dauube, anil the concluding rites in
this city. Fight thousand Hungarian
and Austrian nobles, and sixty peers
and one hundred diplomatists, and one
thousand strangers witnessed the coro
nation scene, which was magnificent.

churches assisted in the ceremony. The

For restoring hair upon bald heads, (from

forcing a growth of hair upon the face, it lm*
no equal. It will force the beard to grow
upon the smoothest face, in from five to eight
weeks, or hair upon bald heads in from two
to three months. A few ignorant practition
ers have asserted that there is nothing that
will force or hasten the growth of the hair or
beard. Their assertions are false, as thous

perience) can bear witness. But many will
say, how are we to distinguish the genuine
from the spurious? It certainly is difficult,
ns nine-tenths of the different Preparations
advertised for the hair and beard arc entirely
worthless, and you may have already thrown
away large amounts in their purchase. To
such wo would say, try the Reparator Capilli;

X’o man’s name is more intimately connect

the United States, or more favorably known
as n pioneer in medical discovery than that of
DR. JOHN BULL
OF LOUISVILLE, KY.
Ills inimitable preparation of SARSAPA
RILLA has long stood at the head of the va
rious compounds of that valuable drug.
His COMPOUND OF WILD CHERRY has
become a household word throughout the
wmt sow®.
Ilia WORM LOZENGES, in less than a year
after their introduction, attained a reputation
as wide spread as the continent of North
America.
But the crowning glory of his life remains
to be attained in his latest discovery, or rath
er combination, for he does not claim to bo
the discoverer of
I
Which is the basis of the BITTERS now of
fered to the public. That honor belongs to
the native inhabitants of CENTRAL AMERI
CA, to whom its virtues have been known for
more^than two hundred years. Armed with
it the Indian bids

Deadly Malaria,
And handles without fear the most venomous
serpents. It is a belief with them that while
there is breath in tho body, tho
Is potent to cure, no matter what the disease
may be. While 1)R. BURL is not prepared to
endorse this extravagant pretension, he is
nevertheless satisfied from a thorough exam
ination of the evidence relating to its virtues,
that as a remedy and preventive for all dis
eases arising from exposure, either to changes
of weather aud eliinutc or to the miasmatic
influence, it
STANDS WITHOIT A HIVAI-,
And justly deserves the reputation it has so
long enjoyed in Central America and the West
Indies.
IN DYSPEPSIA
\ And its attendant train of symptons, it acts
more like a charm than a medicine. There is
i nothing in the range of Materia Medica that.
! can for a moment bear a comparison with it
; in this disease.
A full account of this wonderful plant may
: be found in the 111b edition of the U. S. Dis
j pensatory, on pages 1387 and 1388.
A seriesof experiments in which Dr. BULL
has hecn for years engaged, lias just been
brought to a successful termination, and he is
now enabled to offer to the public a combina
tion ofCEPRON with other approved tonics,
j the whole preserved in the host quality of cop
I per distilled Bourbon Whiskey, which he is
j confident has
SO EQ.UAL M TEE WORLD.
He might furnish a volume of certificates,
but the public have long since learned to osti
! mate such things at their truo value. Tho
' safest plan is for every one to test for himself
1 the virtue of a new medicine.
