Amongst other interesting circumstances, may be noticed that of the late Rev. Rowland Hill, late of Surrey Chapel, Blackfriars-road, who patronised the use of the medicine, and derived from it singular benefit, in cases of obstinate cough, to which he was subject; as also did many distinguished individuals in his congregation; and other ladies of title and respectability at Bath and elsewhere, whose names we are not permitted more specifically to mention.
Miss Clark, a respectable lady, who attended the ministry of Mr. Hill, after having suffered exceedingly from a most terrible and alarming cough, was induced to purchase a bottle of the Balsam, from the representations of a lady, who had on several occasions procured it, to distribute among the poor; and administered it to others with the most marked advantage in pulmonary complaints, asthma, and confirmed coughs. The effect of the first dose was, she said, truly astonishing—it gave her immediate relief. At night she ceased from coughing and enjoyed tranquil repose: her cough gradually disappeared; and, in a short time, she became perfectly convalescent.
The Balsamic Elixir is prepared only by the Author, H. Congreve, Shepherd’s Bush, and sold retail at 4s. 6d., 2s. 9d, 1s. 1½d., and in Family Bottles, at 11s. and 22s. each. There is a considerable saving in purchasing the larger bottles. The Proprietor’s name, “Henry Congreve,” is written by him across the Stamp. All others are counterfeit preparations.
Messrs. Hannay and Dietrichsen, 63, Oxford-street, London, are appointed sole wholesale agents for the sale of the above, and the following most valuable preparation, mentioned in pages [7] and [11], which is also compounded by the Author:—
Under the distinguished Patronage of
HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUKE OF SUSSEX,
Dr. FLEMMING’S QUININE and CAMPHOR PILLS, a celebrated remedy for Indigestion, Nervous, Bilious, and Liver Complaints. As a mild aperient, and fine stomachic, they are unquestionably unequalled by any other compound, as they uniformly invigorate the digestive organs, and operate most beneficially throughout the entire nervous system. “Their great merit consists in their mild and gentle operation, inducing a healthy tone of stomach, creating an appetite and relish for food, promoting refreshing sleep, and dissipating morning languor, and general nervousness; and, in short, resuscitating the system.”—Letter of C. Bushman, Esq., No. 3, Addison-place, Notting-hill.
Sold in Boxes, containing a Pocket Manual; or, Concise Treatise on Indigestion, Diet, and Regimen, &c.

Price 4s. 6d. each, and eight of the small size boxes of Pills: also, in Boxes of 2s. 9d. and 1s. 1½d. each. See that “Henry Congreve” is signed across the Government Stamp.
