Gideon Lee, Mayor of the City of New York. u Few men in the community have a greater contempt for nostrums in general than myself. Patent medicine and catchpenny, with me, have been synonymous. I am constrained, however, to relinquish these sentiments as respects Dr. Rogers’s Vegetable Detergent, the effects of which I have recently witnessed. A young lady in my family, by using two papers, I have rea son to believe, is effectually cured of an alarm ing Pulmonic Complaint, which in all its symp- toms gave evidence of immediate consumption. t 1 communicate this with a view of usefulness, t and sincerely hope that such persons as have complaints similar to the above, will make a tri al of the medicine.

All advertisements appear in both papers, and are inserted at the usual rates. _ CONGRESsional Wednesday, Feeruary 12, 1834. IN SENATE. A Message was received from the House 0f Representatives, announcing the death of the Hon. Thomas Tyler Bocldin, late a Repiesen tative from the State of Virginia—and that his funeral would take place to-morrow at half past eleven o’clock. Mr. Rives rose and said— Mr. President: The Senate were yesterday apprized by the Senator from South Carolina /Mr. Preston) in the momentary absence of my colleague and myself, of the melancholy event which°has just been communicated to us by the House of Representatives, and which has de prived the State of Virginia of one of her most distinguished Representatives in the Legisla ture o?the Union. The event, sir, in all its cir cumstances and associations, was one of the most solemn and affecting character well cal culated to admonish us, in the midst of our busy cares here, what shadows we are, and what shadows we pursue!” I now rise, Mr. President, to ask, at the hands of the Senate, the accustomed marks of respect to the rvf* r»nr liHGPased associate, and which are so eminently due to the high character he maintained in all the relations both of public and of private life. I beg leave, therefore, to of fer the for adoption of the Senate the following resolution: Resolved, That the Senate will attend the fu neral of the honorable Thomas Tyler Bocldin, late a member of the House of Represetatives from the State of Virginia, at the hour of 11 o’clock, A. M. to-morrow: and, as a testimony of respect for the memory of the deceased, they will go into mourning by wearing crape around the left arm for thirty days. This resolution having been unanimously agreed to— On motion of Mr. Rive9, Ordered, That when the Senate adjourns, it adjourn to meet at halt past ten o’clock, A. M. for the purpose of joining the House of Repre sentatives in attending the obsequies of the late honorable Thomas T. Bocldin. On Motion of Mr. Rives, The Senate then adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. As soon as the Journal was read— Mr. ARCHER rose and said: I rise, Mr. j Speaker, not to announce to the House—that I were superfluous—but to submit the resolutions rendered proper by the dreadful catastrophe of which vve were all appalled, and, I am sure 1 mav add afflicted, spectators yesterday; by which I have been deprived of an esteemed friend, and the State to which we both belonged, at a moment of the extremest public excitment, of one of the most valued and valuable of her Re presentatives on this floor. I know, sir, that I should outrage the feeliqgs of the House, as I should violate my own, were I to avail myself of this occasion, to pay at large the tribute of esteem to my departed col leagueand friend, which would, under other cir cumstances, be due to the annunciation of his loss. He was of a character which might well be fruitful of panegyric, if it were now allowed me to dwell upon it. It was his fortune to have raised himself,'from the humblest condition of life, to rank in his profession—to a high judicial station at home—and to a seat, and that no un distinguished one, on this floor, by the aid ot merit alone. At an age approaching to major ity he was following the plough, and, so far from regarding this circumstance with shame, or desiring to conceal it, he had the superior mind to regard and to speak of it with exul tation, as, what it truly was, an honor. With out fortune or influential friends, or the aki even of education, he had lifted himself to general esteem, to independence, and to a place, which he regarded, as I do, inferior to none in point of honor—a seat in this House. Sir, if 1 felt at liberty to pursue the theme, no man would be better authorized, from knowl edge, to bear the high testimony w’hich it merited, to his character, as a private and a pub lic man; nor, let me add, would there be any one who would be more glad and proud to render this just tribute to his memory and virtues. But I dare not pursue the theme, just and grateful as it would be. The awful catas trophe we have been called to witness and de plore, to speak to our hearts; and, let me add, to our horror, in a language which forbids it.— I feel that I ought not, may I say that I cannot, add more; and I content myself, therefore, af ter this brief and impartial notice, with sending to the Chair the resolutions l hold in my hand, such as are ordinarily adopted on occasions of this description: Mr Abi'hrr then moved the fnllowinor resnhi tions: Resolved, That the Members of this House will attend the funeral ofthe late Thomas Tyler Bouldin at 11 o’clock to-morrow. Resolved, That a committee be appointed to take order for supperintending the funeral of Thomas T. Bouldin, deeased, late a Member of this House, from the State of Virginia. Resolved, That the Members of this House will testify their respect to the memory of Tho mas T. Bouldin, by wearing crape on the left arm for thirty days. Ordered, That a message be sent to the Sen ate to notify that body of the death of 1 homas T. Bouldin, late one of the Representatives from the State of Virginia, and that his funeral will take place to-morrow, at eleven o’clock, from the Hall of the House of Representatives. The resolutions were unanimously adopted; and then The House adjourned,__j ORPHANS’ COURT, Alexandria County, January Term, 1834. CHARLOTTE JACOBS, (late Deagan,) Executrix of Henry B. Deagan, dec’d, ex hibited to the Court her fourth account, as Exe-! cutrix aforesaid, with the vouchers in support thereof; which account is received, will be al- i lowed, and duly recorded, unless cause be shewn to the contrary, on or before the first Monday j in March next; of w’hich all persons interested or concerned will take notice.

Distress is pressing on us. It has not reached our doors only, but has entered our dwellings. Great failures have occurred. S. M. Allen have stopped for, as is reported, from two to three million of dollars; the Salem Bank has stopped, and our merchants are also yielding to the pressure—three large failures last Thurs day, Friday two, and Saturday two. The times are indeed serious! Yet in their very midst, do the office holders chuckle, and laugh, and ap t a r i i piauct, ana snoui over inis siuie ui unngs, uuiu ally making merry at them, as though it was a festival! We warn them—we say suppress your rejoicing. The sufferings of the people are of two serious a nature to be sported with, and ri diculed. We shall always regret that Col. Page, the Post Master, lent himself under any forms, but especially in the spirit did he. to that motley meeting held in the court room on Thurs day last. It did not become him to make merry at the public distress. There was some excuse for Cobbet’s friend and ally. But Col. Page ought not to have sneered at the times by say There is a pressure; yes gentlemen 1 feel there is a pressure, for in getting into this room I nearly lost the tail of my coat.” This was not becoming in any one, but least of all in one who receives his pay from the pockets ol those very people who are the subjects of this pressure, and who, while Col. Page and his par ty are revelling in their salaries, and laughing at the widespread distress, are distracting them selves with efforts, too many of them, vain ef forts, to save their business, themselves, and their families from ruin.—Phil. Com. Her. Four other serious failures spoken of yester day.—Phil. Com., 11/A. Messrs. Allens, to whose unfortunate failure we alluded yesterday, have, we are informed, very promptly returned to the drawers those drafts on Western cities and elsewhere which they had purchased and paid tor in their own notes, and which still remained in their hands at the time they stopped payment.

Raising the Wind.—Isaac Hill has asked the loan of $30,000 from a New Hampshire Bank at Concord, for the General Post Office, but wu> refused on any security.—N. Y. Slur. Gen. Jackson and Mr. Van Buren.—A few days ago the Courier and Enquirer, after exhi biting a faithful picture of the distresses of the times, implored Mr. Van Buren to separate him self trom Gen. Jackson, who is cailed a tyrant, and in the event of his affording relief to the commercial community, assurances are held out to him of a very general and grateful sup port for the Presidency, and tempting allure ments are spread before this ambitious candi date to change his course, and listen to the en treaties of his suffering fellow-citizens, who now turn from the obstinate determination of Gen. Jackson to the more experienced judgment and better feelings of Mr. Van Buren for relief. There would not be much difficulty in sepa rating the President and Vice President on the bank question, were it not for the well-attested fact that the opposition to the Bank ofthe United States, and the removal of the deposites, are Mr. Van Buren’s projects, and not Gen. Jack son’s; and that the present widely-extended dis tresses, and ruinous prospects throughout the country, are solely attributable to the advice and recommendation of Mr. Van Buren, and are not tne sen wiuea ana seu-aireciea measures of Gen. Jackson: nor is he the tyrant spoken of in such positive terms. His passions, it is true, have been inflamed, and his opposition aroused against the bank beyond measure and beyond reason, by the constant and untiring efforts of the men who surround him, and who are all un der the influence of Mr. Van Buren. Why should the public be abused on this point? Why should the original plotter of all this mischief be permitted to shrink and dodge from the re sponsibility, and place it entirely on Gen. Jack son, because his personal popularity can bear it? Why not at once declare tne truth, and the whole truth? What prevents the re-charter of the United States Bank? The vote of New York. And who controls that vote? Mr. Van Buren and the Safety Fund Banks. From the moment Mr. an Buren adopted the Safety Fund system he determined to oppose the re-charter of the United States Bank. Among many proofs of this fact, we have now before us a letter from an intelligentgentleman in this city to another in Uti ca, dated April, 1829, in which is the following re markable sentence: What think yon of a hint that has been given to me of our present Secretary of State (Mr V. B.) making the renewal of the charter of that in stitution (the U. S. Bank) a PARTY question, for public favor in his views on the Presidency, by uniting the monied institutions of this and oth er states with him, in opposition to the Bank U. S. We have no objections to show this letter when required.—N. Y. Star. ——■——j JOB PRINTING neatly executed at this office The following is an old article, but just as good as new, and perhaps a little bettei. The Salem Gazette revives it. Gumption.—This is a fine Scotch void not generally to be found in the dictionaries, though it is worthy of a place in the best. It has a great deal of meaning in it, and often expi esses what nothing else can. c When I see a girl reject the address of a res pectable young man, who owns a farm, goes to meeting, and pays his debts, for one who visits the theatre, and spends his money faster than he earns it, I think to myself she has not got much gumption. When I see a young mechanic who vvants a good wife, that can make a pudding, spit a tur key, and nurse his babies, dangling after a piece of affectation, because she has been to a dancing school and can play on a piano, I guess he has*not much gumption. When I see a farmer paying taxes for twenty acres of land, half fenced, half tilled, when he might raise more on six acres under good cul tivation, 1 conclude he is not overstocked with gumption. When I see a man who has a good business sufficient to support his family respectably, ne glecting his affairs, and running into debt, in order to obtain a political office, I fancy that whatever may be his talents, he is not burden ed with gumption. When I see a man calling his boys from school, and spending three hours every day fora month, to tar his trees, that the canker worm may not ascend them, when he might elfect a remedy in a single day, by exchanging the earth for three feet around them, I conclude he has no more industry than gumption. When 1 see a man purchasing three cords of wood for the winter, when, by listing the doors, .and mending a broken pane, he might save two of them, l think he has but little gumption. When I see a young man, just set up in busi ness, keeping a horse and chaise atan expense of two dollars-a day, and failing in six months, when he might walk for nothing, and continue his business with safety, I conclude that he has not much gumption. When I see a man attending diligently to his own concerns, sending his children to school, paying his debts, and keeping clear of law suits, quarrels, and politics, I set him down as a man possessing a reasonable share of gump tion. When I see a woman mending her children’s clothes, and receiving her husband with affec tion, I conclude that she has no ordinary share of gumption. In fine, when I see a man who deals justly, loves mercy, walks humbly, and pays for bis newspaper, I conclude that of all others in this world he possesses the greatest portion of gump tion.

Yesterday both Houses of Congress assern-, bled in the Hall of the House of Representa tives, from whence the funeral of the late Mr.! Bocldin proceeded. The President, Heads of j Departments, and a numerous concourse of Ci tizens, attended, and paid the tribute of their re spect to the memory of the deceased. A Rice Mill invented and patented by a gen tleman of Northampton, Mass., after a fair tri al has been found to be extremely useful; both as a labor saving machine, and one which will establish the value of the article beyond compar ison above that cleansed in the ordinary way, by pounding, which is expensive, troublesome and imperfect. A mill is to be erected at Charles ton, S. C., and Wilmington, N. C. jl The Physicians of Troy, with a single ex ception, have concurred in an opinion, against the use of ardent spirits, as the fruitful source of distress, ruin and death. The New Orleans Bee says, by a late letter received in that city, information had been re ceived of the assassination of Capt. Basil Hall, at Bogota, for attempting to bribe the officer of a garrison to deliver it up in the absence of his commander, who had gone to Guayaquil to quell an insurrection. It is not true, as reported, that the President can dissolve Congress, if the House of Repre sentatives, alone, resolved to adjourn. It is only when the convokes the Legislature himself.\ on a special and extraordinary occasion, that he can adjourn both Houses, if required by one of them. Phil. Chron. Family Longevity.—We have heretofore men tioned the remarkable case of Welsh of New Hampshire, who died a few years since at 112, and whose mother and sister reached 100, and his brother 90; also that of Pratt of Shutesbury, in this State, who died at 117 in 1804, and had four sons living in 1801, of whom the eldest was 00, ana tne youngest su. Henry Fransisco, who died in 1820, aged 134, near Whitehall, N. Y. had two wives and 21 children; and of the latter, when Professor Sil liman visited him a little before that event, the youngest was 52, and the others were supposed to be mostly living. u Old Parre” died at 152 in 1635, and was married once at 80, and a second time at 120.— Easton relates that a son of his reached 110, a grandson 109, another 127, and a great grand son 124. Rovin, a Hungarian, died in 1741 at the age of 171, having lived 147 years with his wife, who died during the same year at 163. This venerable couple left a family of four children to lament their departure, of whom the youngest was 116. All were born and all lived in the same village. The authority for this almost in credible fact is Sir John Sinclair, (in the Code of Health and Longevity,) and we find that seve ral other respectable writers give it full credit. An eqally astonishing case is recorded, in the notes to YVorcester’s article in the Memoirs of the Am. Academy, new series:—that of Mrs. Belknap, who died many years ago in New Hampshire at the age of 113. Her daughter, Mrs. Newton, of Southborough in this State, died at 106, in 1790; her son John, at Westbor ough, in his 101st year; another son, 100; her daughter, Mrs. Flagg, of this city, 101; and two other daughters, Mrs. Cunningham and Mrs. Merrill, both over 100.—Boston Gaz. I Caspar Hauser.—The mystery wrhich hung about the origin and early life of this extraordi nary young man, is said to be in a way of ex planation. It seems, according to an account which we find in an English periodical, that Cas par Hauser was the fruit of an illicit amour; that a priest, the reputed father, took charge of the child from the moment of its birth, and finally enclosed it in a subterraneons hole or vault in a convent where he was residing; that thus impri soned and shut out from all human intercourse, the unhappy being passed his existence until within a day or two of his being found, as relat ed in the history of his life which has been pub lished, when the priest being compelled to quit the convent, and having no other place of concealment at hand, released and left the boy to his fate. The chain of circumstantial evi dence bv which thus much of the story has been made out, is so well put together as to leave lit tle doubt that the true elucidation has been hit upon. The above outline has been communi cated in conversation by M. Kluber, the cele brated writer on Public Law, who first disco vered and is still following the clue. YVhen he has thoroughly sifted the matter, it is expected he will favor the public with a memoir on the subject. I The handsome Wife and the admiring crouds.

ON Tuesday morning, between Fredericks burg and my plantation, in the upper end of Stafford, a NEGRO MAN, and the MARE on which he was riding, both belonging to me, were stolen by a man who seems to have been a stranger in this part of the country. When seen in possession of the Slave and of the Mare, he was inquiring his way to Stafford Court House. He is described to me as a person be tween fifty and sixty years of age, with re markably white hair; his stature stout and well set. He wore a brownish colored stuff cloak. The negro is between twenty five and thirty j years of age, as well as is remembered; stout in his person, and about five feet ten or eleven in ches high; has a drawling manner of talking, and appears to be much less sagacious than he j really is. His name is Jack. His dress was a blue cloth cap, a grey great coat, and his under j clothing drab cloth. The Mare is a fine large sorrel, without any spot of white about her, unless perhaps there may be some few white hairs in the centre of the forehead, not covering more than the size of a four-pence-halfpenny. She is, as well as is recollected, going on seven years of age; 1s re markably long in her body; has along tail, and it is remarkable where it joins the rump. There may be discerned in the film of one of her eyes an incision which was made a year or two ago to cure the hooks. One Hundred Dollars Reward will be given for therecovery of the above Slave and Mare, or in the proportion of four and two for the recovery of either. JNO.

PUBLIC ATTENTION IS respectfully solicited by the subscriber, to an in valuable preparation, the merits of which have been tested by time, and are sustained by undoubted testimony __ DR. RELFE’S BOTANICAL DROPS are every year increasing their long established repu tation. They have outlived many rival preparations, and are continually gaining upon public confidence. The Botanical Drops have been successfully admin istered for many years, as a thorough remedy for that well known and prevalent class of inveterate diseases which originate from a vitiated habit of body, or an he-, reditary predisposition in the patient, and general y appear under the various and distressing shapes ot Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Leprosy, St Anthony s Fire, Fever Sores, White Swellings, Scurvy, Foal and Ob stinate Ulcers, Sore Legs and Eyes, Scald Head, and Venereal Taint. e In the last mentioned condition c»f the system, the Botanical Drops will be found to eradicate the lurk ine poison, where mercury has totally failed, and thus prevent the patient from entailing the seeds of an he reditarv disease on his offspring. Dr. Relfe’s Botanical Drops are successfully used in cases of violent eruptions after the measles—red blotches-pimples on the face-festering eruptions on the skin—and other diseases of the external surface; and are one of the best Spring and Autumnal physics known, to free the system from humors A physician of eminence, who had witness *d the ef ficacy of this article, had the candor recently to ack nowledge to the proprietor, that he considered it the best medicine known, for the complaints for which it is intended, and that it ought deservedly to stand at the head of the whole class of such remedies. Price $1 a bottle, o* 6 bottles for $5 WHITE TEETH HEALTHY GUMS T.tOSE who wmiij retain or restore these desirable personal advantages, are assured that no compo iitioo can he obtained superior t: the BRITISH ANTISEPTIC DENTRIFICE. This is an elegant and pleasant preparation in every respect, and has, for many years past, given universal satisfaction wherever it has been used The Antiseptic Dentrifice is exempt from acid and other deleterious ingredients, which too frequently enter the composition of tooth powders in common use and it wh tens the enamel of the teeth without doing it the least injury. The regular use of this ad mired powder, by purifying the mouth and preventing the accumulation of tartar, operates as the bert pie ventive otthe room *cue me discolorations, and restores the beautiful native white ness of the enamel. As its application braces and strengthens the Gums, it secures to them their healthy and ft*rid hue, and, by removing all offensive foreign accumulations from the teeth, preserves the natural sweetness of the breath.

IN that long train Of diseases which seem to grow with the growth of civdized society, Consumption takes the lead in its relentless inroads upon human life; yet his dreadful disorder is easily overcome in its earlier stages. It is only when neglected that it ar rives at the terrific maturity which so often baffles the sagacity of professional science. An obstinate cough is the customary forerunner of the pulmonary con, sumption Improper neglect in the timely adminis tration of simple and salutary remedies, is.sure to be reproved by a dreadful succession of consumptive symptom* —oppression of the breast; greenish and i bloody spittle; ulcerated lungs and hectic fever; sliri veiled extremities, and general emaciation of the whole body; prostration of strength; flushed cheek9; j swollen feet and legs; and at last, in the full posses sionof the mental faculties, and while hope still whis pers her flattering tale—cold extremities, and a pie mature death. F >r the various stages of this complaint, one of the most approved remedies ever yet discovered is DR. RELFE’S ASTHMATIC PILLS. This exceedingly powerful, and yet equally safe and innocent preparation, has effected thorough and rapid cures upon patients supposed toha'e been far advanc ed in a confirmed Consumption, and who have exhibit ed the appearances which usually indicate a fatal ter mination of *he disorder. As ihe Pills require in ordinary cases no confine ment, they may be administered with confidence and safety to all ages and classes of people. Unexampled success has hitnerto attended their administration in a great variety of cases; a id the proprietor can refer to a multitude, which testify to their efficacy in reviving the emaciated victim from the bed of disease, and re storing him to the blessings of accustomed health and activity.

TilE complaints peculiar to the lemale part of the community, ha>e been long .successfully treated I bv the administration of the Aromatic Pills, originally prescribed and compounded by Dr llelfe They cleanse the blood from those disorders of the female constitution, for which the pills.are an effectual speci ftc; tiiev restore a free circuia ion, reform the irregular operations of the sanguferous system, and rectify the disordered habits. 1'he proprietor's confidence in the superior excellence of this equally innocent and pow erfd preparation, is founded on the most decisive tes timony from many restored patients. He can assure this portion of the public, that when DR. RELFE'S AROMATIC PILLS FOR FEMALES are regularly taken, accor ting to the directions, ac* companying them, they revive and establish the desir ed healthy habits, and restore to the pallid counte nance the natural glow of health and good spirits. Married ladies will find the pills equally useful, ex cept in ca.iea of paegnancy, when they must not be taken; neither must they be taken by persons of hec tic or consumptive habits. They may be used success fully by either men or women in ail Hypochondriac, Hysteric or Vapourish disorder*. In all cases of this description, the pills purify, invigorate, and revive the disordered system. Price M 50 a box.

DAVIS respectfully informs his friends and the public that his PATEN T ROPE-WALK s now in complete operation, and he will thankfully Imposition having been practised upon the nub lic by a spurious article, bearing the name of Jjid I kins* Ointment,” the proprietor avails himself ot the authority granted to him in his letters patent, now to call the Ointment after his own name, Henceforth it will be known by the name of SHEPHERD'S PATENT SPECIFIC OINT MENT, (formerly Judkins'.) When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effects, I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would be a valuable public benefit. I concluded that the Ointment would occasionally fall into many hands, some of whom would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process-ne vertheless, it might be progated in this adulterated si tuation, as it might in some degree resemble the origi nal—and in this way its good effects would be oblitera ted- Under these considerations, I secured the origi nal and certain remedy for those obstinate diseases, some of which have so long baffied the skih of me dical science: 1st White swellings of every description; 2d Sore legs and ulcers of long standing, 3d Schirrus or glandular tumors, particularlythose hardenedtumors in women’s breasts, which oftentimes terminate in ulceiated cancers; 4th Felons; or what some people know by thename of catarrhs, of every description. 5th Rheumatic pains ol the joints; 6th Sprains and bruises of every description, or in whatever part situate; 7th Tetters of all kinds. In this complaint tne pa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part out of water; 8th Chilblains or partsaffected by frost. It is also one of the best remedies for burns and scalds. It eases the pain and draws the fire out in a short time. For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap plication*, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of anv preparation of the mineral,) because it does not lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold. This iliniment has cured sores of many years stand ing. Where it is impossible or imprudent to heal th* external sore, in consequence of the hones becoming carious oi rotten, it will stop the progress of the caries, incretse the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the pains. It cures the worst Felods and Whitlows, on applica tion of forty-eight hours CERTIFICATES. From the Hon. John Cache Member of the House of Re presentatives in Congress.

The following extract is published by Dr. Lee's au* thority, viz:— j Extract of a letter, written by a very respectable gen. tleman. residing in Baltimore, to the subscriber, who deems it his duty, though unauthorized, to lay it be fore the public, withholding the writer s name, for particular reference, should any require 't person ally, SAM H. P Lhh. Baltimore, August, 1828. Doctor S. H. P. Lei, New London, Conn. Dear Sir—It is now upwards of twenty years that I have used your New London Bilious Pills in my tami lv. and always found them an efficient purgative in al- j most everv description of disease, and believe they sa ved many' a long doctor's bill by their early and timely use. I never found their accustomed certainty to vary in their operation and effects until a few months past; and having, since then, been sadly disappointed in eve ry instance of using them, I began to conclude that you had made your foriune, and abandoned their manufac ture to mercenary and unfaithful hands. Under this impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New Yorfc newspaper, designating spurious imitations from your own manufacture, by having your I WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other respact. Finding those I had without this test, I be gan to suspect that all wras not fair in medicine, as well as *ir politics, and called at several of our apothe caries for your pills, with your written signature. I found many without this test, but none with it, until 1 came to the Messrs Keerls*, who assured me they had them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using them, found the same effects from them I had always experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding my self in possession of a medicine I so highly prize, that that I cannot, injustice, refrain from giving you this information. To avoid the imposition ofcounterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the billot directions covering each box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im mediately under my prmieu name, me/ and prepared by me; but if ohly the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided.
