SINGULAR OCCURRENCES.
THE wife of Mr. VIM. StiIIweiI, mer.
chant, Water street, New York, had been
in poor Stale of health for several years
past, and was often confined 10 her cham-
Der by Indisposuion her symptoms were
various, though generally attended with
great debility sometimes they were sup
posed to indicate dropsy, at others dis
ease OF the liver. Having suffered We.
ry severe attack, withou, obtaining any
relief from her physician, and almost des-
pairing OF recovery, she was Induced to
make trial OF Hamiiton,s Worm Destroy
ing Lozenges; having heard oftheir per-
forming cures in several complaints that
could not be accounted for. Two doses
were taken, which brought away large
worm, nearly half yard in length, and
great quantity of matter evidently pie.
ces OF worms, &c. On taking the third
or fourth dose, an entire animal shaped
like crab, was expelled: its parts were
examined with The aid of a microscope,
when the claws, feet, SC. appeared per-
iec'iy formed different in but few res
poets from the common crab. Mrs.
Slillwell began irpm that time to recover
her health ;--three months have since e.
lapsed, and she has been free from her
former complaints, and has acquired a
degree of health aud strength which for
years before she had been stranger to.
She being free TO extend the knowledge

ht has been received, has authorised
Mrs. Lee, the present proprietor, to state
these particulars for the good Of others

TO a. LEE.
Having IN most singular manner, ex-
perienced in my family the astonishing
efficacy of Hanilion's Worm Destroying
Lozenges, prepared by the late Mr.. Lee,
| feerit my duty 10 add the following GU.
rious case to the iist Of remarkable cures
performed by that celebrated medicine.
My daughter at the age of u months
was taken i'll with those symptoms which
are supposed to denote worms: after ha
wing tried number of things which are
said to be good in such cases, without
any benefit, we had the attendance of a
respectable physician but she still con
tinued to decline in health, and at TIE end
OF six months became so weak that she
could not walk, nor keep food on her sto.
mach, it was SO extremely disordered,
AT this interesting period, one Of our
neighbours recommended your Lnzen.
ges so earnestly, we were induced to
send 10 Mr.. B,rch's for box of them; ;
on her taking the third dose, according
TO the printed directions, there came from
her living animal about three quarters
of an inch long and Of most frightful
appearance, being very white, with a
great number Of legs, and something
which resembled wings, by which it ap-

same distance that a small toad can hope
on the ground. Its form was altogether
unknown 10 every person who saw II. II
lived in water abou, 9 hours. We after
wards put it in spirits, and it is now in
the possession of DR.. Blsight of this city.
The child grew better from tha, day in
a very short period began 10 walk again,
and is now in perfect health.
