NEVER-FAILING REMEDY !

OLLO.WAY'S OINTMENT!
11, A CRIPPLE SETS ASIDE HIS CRUTCHES

AFTER TEN YEARS' SUFFERING

Copy of a Letter from.3y. Thompson,
_Chemist, Liverpool,

dated Augtut 20th, 1852.
To Professor HOLLOWAY,—Dear Sir,—l am enabled to fur-
nish you with a most extraordinary cure effected by your inva-
luable Ointment and Pills, which has astonished every person
acquainted with the sufferer. About ten years ago, Mr. W.
Cummins, of Saltney-street, in this town, was thrown from his
horse, whereby he received very serious injuries; he had the
best medical advice at the time, and was afterwards an inmate
of different infirmaries, yet he grew worse, and at length a ma-
lignant running ulcer settled in his hip, which so completely
crippled 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. J. THOM PSON.
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 Ist, 1832.
To Professor HOLLOWAY,—Sir,—Some time since, one of my
children was afflicted with dreadful eruptions over the body
and limbs. I obtained the advice of several eminent surgeons
and physicians, by all of whom the case was considered hope-
less. At length I tried your Ointment and Pills, and without
exaggeration, the effect was miraculous, 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. HIRD.
CERTAIN REMEDY FOR SCORBUTIC HUMOURS—AND
AN ASTONISHING CURE OF AN OLD LADY SEVENTY
_ YEARS OF AGE OF A BAD LEG.

.I.a.M.AVI •
Copy of a Letter from Messrs. TValker 5. Co., Chemist*, Bath.
To Professor HOLLOWAYt—Dear 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 five 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 distressing 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 inquiries as to tha authenticity
of this really wonderful case, either personally or by letter.—
' A private in the Bath Police Force, also, bas 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.ol
your Ointment, and speaks loudly in its prai
KER and Co.

GRAND SURVEYING EXPEDITION TO THE
AMERICAN ISTHMUS, IN SEARCH OF THE
BEST LINE FOR AN INTER-OCEANIC COM-
MUNICATION.
THE promoters of this important enterprise have
been engaged nearly four years in acquiring proper infor-
mation of all kinds necessary to the development of this great
commercial project.

They have ilsti completed their political arrangements with)
the government of the Republic within whose territory the
ship-passage will doubtless be constructed. This latter occu-
pation has occupied not less than two years, and is now very
perfect and very valuable. _

An extensive combination of interests, in a principle purely
cosmopolitan, has nut been left unfinished. Commissioners
are at this moment busy at work in the capital of the United
States, within the most important of the German States, for
emigration purposes; in France, for providing, in connexion
with popular patronage, the highest scientific assistance; and
in England the plans for a leading movement are nearly ma.
tured.

! It being acknowledged that, with the exception of the present
Panama railway route, no line of communication south-east of
' San Juan de Nicaragua del Sur has been fully examined and
reported upon, the necessity. and value of tne projected ex-
pedition will appear unquestionable ; and certain.y may be
expected to receive adequate public approval and support.
The plain herein suggested has been submitted to the consi..
deration of the moat distinguished statesmen, men of science,
1 eadins commercial houses, and heads of mercantile public
companies, both in this and in other countries, and to this
plan alone, a plan for examining all lines, and then selecting
the best, they will afford a willing assistance.
Further particulars will promptly be submitted to the pub-
lic; meanwhile, any information may be obtained at the offices
of the Committee, 46, Lime-street, City, London ; and in Paris,
by application to M. JULES BOURCIER, late French Plenipo-
tentiary to the Republic of the Ecuador, at the office of the
French Committee. 15, Passage Saulnier.
