Black Currant Wine. 



JUST received at J. B. Russell's Seed Store, Nos. 51 ^ 

 52 r<orth Market Street, Boston — • 



A further supply of superior old Black Currant Wine, 

 made under the inspection of John Prince, Esq. Roxbu- 

 ry ; an account of its astringent and detergent proper- 

 ties in various complaints, will be found in the N. E. 

 Farmer, vol. 5, page 267, written by S. W. Pomeroy, 

 Esq. and the late Doct. J. G. Coffin. It is highly salu- 

 tary in many summer complaints. Doct. Coffin states : 

 ' Its use has been attended with remarkable success in 

 the early stages of cholera morbus and dysentery — and 

 again also in the later stages of these diseases, alter the 

 symptoms of inflammation or febrile excitement had 

 ceased It has been strikingly remedial in the low states 

 of typhoid and bilious fever. The late Capt. Gilchrist, 

 who for several years loTlowed the Eatavia trade, and 

 who had always sulfered an attack of the severe cholera 

 which proves so destructive of human life in that climate, 

 used to say that after he had this wine with him, and 

 took two glasses of it every morning, he escaped the 

 disease. On one voyage, his mate, who had not taken 

 the wine, was seized with this complaint, when a bottle 

 or two stopped its progress. We have not room to enu- 

 merate m.my other morbid affections in which this wine 

 has proved useful. In sore throat it has for n.any years 

 been considered almost a specific remedy. — Price 75 cts. 

 per bottle.
