Durham Union. The salery offered is indeed very small.
You do not say if the chaplan boards in the union, or if he
has to find board and lodgin
ge out of thf 3 salery. I enclose
copy testimonials, which I hope will be ; approved of. I may
state that I have had a good deal of prr vate practice, but not
publick.—l am, sir, your most °bed' lent servant, Jonx

[ADVERTISEMENT.I—HoIIoway's 0. intment and Pills.—
Dropsical Swellings.---Whatever may be the remote cause
of collections of water in the human LI )dy, it must be pru-
dent to disperse theta as soon as pa ssible. The readiest
means of accomplishing this end are sm pplied:by using
loway's Ointment to increase the actin ity of the absorbents.
When this Ointment is well rubbed I Ton the skin it m"
moves all venous congestion; overec Imes all mechanical
obstruction to the free return of the I flood, and prevents
the deposit of serum or water. Hole way's Fills likewise
augment this absorbing power; they a et more circuitously
on the capillaries through the circuital lon, while his Oint-
ment acts directly through the skin . Both should be
employed is dropsies and diseases of the kicbleYS.
