Mr. HENRY Garrote, who also took part in this dis•
tension, illustrated the value of my Condiment to
horses, dogs, cows, and pigs. His mare had been quite
set up by it, and restored to hunting condition. For
his dog, he found nothing better after a day's work in
the stubble or turnips. With his cows it improved the
flesh and the milk; and, with his pigs, he found a
marked Improvement tik theme that were treated with It
over those not thus fed.
Major MUNN'S testimony is even more decisive. Me
lambs, on his farm in the Isle of &espy, were terribly
&filleted with thread-like worms in the air vessels.
Their recovery was despaired of. His bailiff proposed
trying my Condiment. The Major, in despair, con.
sented, and now bears his testimony to the results. In
his bailiff's own words, " he saved the whole took."
This was in 1859. Again in October, 1860, he had 118
lambs thrown on his bands by the incoming tenant of
his farm, and not worth, in their then condition, more
than from six to ten shillings a-head. He tried my
Condiment again, and the result was, that be last only
five of the 118, and he sold the remainder for from
forty-five to forty-six shillings a-head. He tells us that
he was equally successful with his horses, and is
satisfied that, apart from every other cause, the recovery
of his sheep and lambs was due to the use of the Condi,

_
I may be permitted to add, that after this &solution,
the Major tried the effect of the condiment on an
Alderney cow, under very special cironnurtance. Ear
third calf was calved on the 23rd of February, and
weaned on the 2nd of March, and from then to the 7th
of April she continued to give cream enough to make
'Tibia of butter per week on the °anal diet of grass, mangold,
and turnips On the 7th of April the condiment was Dom.
menoed, and the first week gave an increase of six ox.
of butter; the second gave an increase of rather more
than a pound of butter and the third week 9flbe of
butter. Such facts speak for themselves, and need DO
explanation.
The MAron's testimony is equally decisive as to the
effect of the Condiment on horses and dogs. He is also
very plain spoken on a poiot on which it is difficult for
me to tmik with any patience—the rookies imitations
of the Condiment foisted on the former by the retail
dealers and hawkers, and with the failures and
often terrible effects of which my invention is
necessarily saddled. Until the legislature provides
a cheap and speedy method by which fraudulent imits,
tions and equally fraudulent dealers in shams can
be prosecuted and prevented from imposing on the
public, I feel I have no remedy but in making it up in
four-ounce packets, in blue paper with buff bibles, and
my signature engraved thereon, at one penny each; or
448 packets, in an iron-bound ease, carriage paid to any
railway station in the United Kingdom, on receipt of
Post-office Order for 34e. I feel the difficulty of ensur-
ing its purity in other ways; and whilst I sincerely
regret the numerous deceptions practised on you under
cover of my name, I must decline the responsibility of
their evil results. I have no quarrel with other maker'
of Condiment. I only complain of those who foist on
yon an impure and often destructive composition as MY
Condiment, and necessarily affect MT reputation by its
deleterions results, at the same time that they reduce
lUf profits by the sale of Them imposture.
You will notice that ill the discussion the practical
value of my Condiment as • restorer of animals out of
condition, and as a fattening food, ix mainly proved. I
have, however, good reason to recommend it to you as •
preventive of infection and an antidote to disease—
keeping the stomach and digestive organs in a natural
healthy tone, and thus fortifying the animal against the
insidious inroads of disease. From this quality it is espe-
cially valuable to dock farmers of the prompt day, when
the system of forcing nature, especially in the ease of
and green crops, by the use of chemical manure',
Cstes ended to incr, ase the quantity of food at the omit
of its quality, and terender it not only far less nutritive,
, but in many canes deleterious to the animal.
With these few remarks, I again invite your careful
perusal of the discussion, and have to request all those
who may be tempted to make • trial to hivour me with
, the results, be they good or bad, at their earliest pony&
nionoe.

I remain, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
JOSEPH THORLEY.

To Fatalism AND oovivisram
GENTLEMEN, —I invite yen to peruse the
report of the dismission, on Cattle Condiment at
die meeting of the Hord Agricsulterel Society d
England, held in Hanover-square rooms, believing tbara
the facts than brought to light by gentlemen of repeti-
tion and position as farmers, and entirely unconnected
with me or my works, will convince you that the vales
I attach to my discovery is by no means exaggerated.
The discussion, to which I now invite your attention,
was originated by Mr. BIALE BROWNX, a gentlemen
well' known among you for his devotion to agricultural
progress and who had been accidentally induced to try
my Condiment, some of the ingredients of which he
had used for previous years. Having from domestie
affliction to give up farming for a time, be sold off the
bulk of his flock of sheep, retaining only a few favourites.
During his absence these animals got reduced to • very
low ebb—indeed, half--dozen of them died, some went
broken mouthed, and some lost their teeth. Though ha
a fine piece of clover, they were a mere bag of bones,
and oilcake and corn had no good effect on them. Be
tried my Condiment, as he tells you, and the result
was that in three or four weeks he hardly knew them
again. After one hundred weight of Condiment, said
Mr. Browne, they went to grass, did remarkably well.
and the Condiment seemed to have entirely renovated
the whole constitution of the animals.
