N,—Some time back I was indebted to your
and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
arge amount of cash, against the viulent and persevering'
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had
last from you for my provision warehouse in Brownlow• hill.
The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves

had been at it for many hours, after which they got it

they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion ; but in which they were again foiled.

NEVER-FAILING REMEDY!
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT r

A CRIPPLE SET ASIDE HIS CRUTCHES AFTERTEN YEARS'
SUFFERING.—Copy of a Letterfrom Mr. Thompson, Chemist,
Liverpool, dated Ana- 20, 1852.—T0 Professor Ifo LLOWAIr,
Dear Sir,-1 am enabled to furnish you with a most extraor-
dinary cure effected by your invaluable Ointment and Pills,
which has astonished every person acquainted with the suf-
ferer. About ten years ago, Mr. W. Crimmins,. of Saltney-
street, in this town, was thrown from his horse, whereby be
received very serious injuries; he had the best medical ad-
vice at the time, and was afterwards an inmate of different
infirmaries, yet he grew worse, and at length a malignant
running ulcer settled in his hip, which so completely crip-
pled him, that he could not move without crutches for nearly
ten years; recently he began. to use your Ointment and Pills,
which have now healed the wound, strengthened his limb, and
enabled him to dispense with his crutches, so that he can
walk with the greatest ease, and with renewed health and
vigour,--3. THOMPSON. _

A MOST EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF A DREADFUL SKIN
DISEASE WHEN ALL MEDICAL AID HAD FAILED.—Copy of
a Letter from Mr. Hird, Draper, of Keardy,.near Gainsbro ,
dated March 1, 185?..—T0 Professor Hom.oway,.—Sir,—Some
time since, one of my children was afflicted with dreadful erup-
tions over the body and limbs. 1 obtained the advice of
several eminent surgeons and physicians, by all of whom the
case was considered hopeless. At length I tried your Oint-
ment and Pills, and without exaggeration, the effect was mi-
raculous, for by persevering in their use, all the eruptions
quickly disappeared, and the child was restored to perfect
health. I previously. lost a child from a similar complaint,
and I believe, had I in her case adopted your medicines, she
would have been saved also. I shall be happy to testify the
truth of this to any inquirer.—J. H IRD.
CERTAIN REMEDY FOR SCORBUTIC HUMOURS—AND AN
ASTONISHING CURE OF AN OLD LADY, SEVENTY YEARS OF
AGE, OF A BAD LEG.—Copy of a Letter from Messrs. Walker
and Co., Chemists, Bath.—To Professor HOLLOWAY,—IIear
Sir,—Among the numerous cures effected by the use of your
valuable medicines in this neighbourhood, we may mention
that of an old lady living in the village of Preston, about rive
miles from this city. She had ulcerated wounds in her leg for
many years, and latterly they increased to such an alarming
extent as to defy all the usual remedies; her health rapidly
giving way under the suffering she endured. In this dis-
tressing condition she had recourse to your Ointment and
Pills, and by the assistance of her friends, was enabled to
persevere in their use, until she received a perfect cure. We
have ourselves been greatly astonished at the effect upon so
old a person, she being above 70 years of age. We shall be
happy to satisfy any inquries as to the authenticity of this
really wonderful case, either personally or by letter.—A pri-
vate in the Bath Police Force, also, bag been perfectly cured
of an old scorbutic affection in the face, after all other means
had failed. He states that it is entirely by the use of your
Ointment, and speaks loudly in its praise.—We remain, dear
sir, yours faithfully, (Signed) WALKER and Co.

painful death. For Depression of Spirits, Excitement, Dis-
like of Society, Incapacity for Study or Business, Loss of

failed. One Trial will convince the most sceptical of their
surprising properties.

and am happy to inform you I have received more benefit
from them than from any of the medical men in London."
W. Chartres, Esq., Newport, Mayo.—" I have a degree of
mental energy and vigour such as I did not feel these two
years. My memory is wonderfully improved, so that I can
ecollect all the events of each day with the greatest degree of
clearness. It is astonishing how I got out of such awful suf-
ferings, but I think I owe it altogether to the use of your Pills."

lizing the Nervous System, will prevent those fatal diseases so

when far removed from medical aid, they will find in these
