WINTER COUGH.

Sir—For the last nine years I have been troubled with a dreadful
Cough, which has always been worse In winter. After taking every re•
medy to remove it, and finding myself to be gradually declining in
health, I bad recourse to yours, and am truly thankful to say that I
passed a winter for some years se free from the complaint. I
hope thousands of my fellow-sufferers may try it, and find the same
benefit. It is above all price. I shall never be without a bottle.
Yours, &c. S. KETCH LEE.

SHORTNESS OF BREATH, CONSTANT COUGH &e.

Sir—Gratitude constrains me to acknowledge the great bench' I have
recently received from your very valuable Balsamic Elixir. Towards
the close of July last, I was severely afflicted with a constant
cough and incessant wheezing, attended with a very great diffi-
culty of breathing, which prevented my taking any rest for several
weeks together, but in an erect posture. through fear of 'offs-
cation. After having been attended by three very skilful Medical
Gentlemen, and my complaint still continuing, I was persuaded by a
friend to make trial-of your excellent Specific, which through necessity
I gladly embraced, and after a few applications, I found very con.
siderable relief in breathing, and in lea than a week the distressing andl
alarming sensation of wheezing was so far abated, that I could again
venture to lie down in my bed, from which time my health and strength
began gradually to increase, and was so far restored, that I again com-
menced my profession. My only motive, dear Sir, in being thus prompt
ha troubling you is, that others similarly afflicted may know where to
find a remedy for their sufferings. I am, Sir, gratefully yours,

H OOPING-COUG H.
Sir,--Having two children very ill with }looping Cough, for which
d.sorder I tried various medicines, tons purpose, I was recommended
to try your excellent Balsamic Elixir. After administering it two or
three times they found wonderful relief, from its clearing away the
thick phlegm from their chests, and allaying the violence of their
coughs. They have nearly finished the second bottle, and are now
free from every symptom. I thought it my duty to let you and the
public know the virtue of your valuable remedy, which has beyond any
thing surprised me. I am, Sir, your bumble Servant,

November 7, 1830.
Sir—ln hopes that all pareors will try the same remedy, I have
thought it my duty to inform you that your "Golden Balm" hes
wrought the greatest wonder in my child, aged seven months, in taking
ONE Dottie only. I cannot describe the agony she endured from her
gums before its use. Night after night she deprived me of rest by con-
stant crying, and nothing seemed to give her a moment's ease, and I
Was often afraid she would expire in convulsion fits. Her gums were
very hard, anti much swelled and inflamed. She had wasted away to a
mere shadow. But. Sir, only judge of my astonishment ! A few drops
rubbed on her gums gave her immediate ease. I applied it two or three
times a day, always with the same effect ; her bowels which were very
costive, became regulated; and 1 thank Got, the child is fast recover-
ing its flesh and strength. She has since cut two teeth with consider.
able ease. In writing this I perform a duty 1 owe to you and the
public. Your humble servant,

MARINE PAINTER TO Ills MAJESTY.—Mr. HUG-
GINS, from whose paintings some of the engraviiip.
have, on former occasions, recommended to the notice of

our readers, lots lately received the appointment of marine
painter to his Majesty. This honourable distinction hay.
ing been conferred on an individual " whose home had been
the sea," for the space of a quarter of a century , is su ex.
traordinary instance of what talent, aided by application,
can achieve, when ex3rted even against the most unfavour-
able circumatances. It is likewise an appointment &modest iv

a strong proof of that consideration, which has so tiequeutiy
distinguished his MAJESTY, towards the members of hut
Tern:profession, as it is an honourable testimony of excel-
lence to the artist. We observe that a painting by Mr.
HVGGJWS, of the Excellent, 74, Caphin Cowso wi) D,
breaking the line at the engagement off Care St Vincten,,
is now at the British Gallery, Pall Slall.
