SINGULAR OCCURRENCES.
THE wife Of MIR. VIM. S,iilwell, MGR.
chant, Water street, New York, had been
In poor state OF health for several years
past, and was often confined TO her cham
Der by indisposilion +: 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, without obtaining any
relief from her physician, and almost des-
pairing of recovery, she was induced to
| make trial of Hamiion's Worm Destroy
ing Lozenges having heard of their 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
a 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 microscope,
when the claws, feet, sc. appeared per-
tec,ly formed (; different in but few res
poets from the common crab. Mrs.
StiilweIl began from that time to recover
her health three months have since C.
lapsed, and she has been free from her
former complaints, and has acquired
degree OF health and strength which for
years before she had been q Stranger TO.
She being free to extend the knowledge
oil q medicine from which SO much bene.
mt has been received, has authorised
Mrs. Lee, the present proprietor, to state
these particulars for the good of others

TO H. LEE.
Having IN most singular manner, eX-
perienced in my family the astonishing
efficacy of Hamilton's Worm Destroying
Lozenges, prepared by the late Mr.. Lee,
feel it my duty 10 add the following Gu
rious case to the list of remarkable cures
performed by that celebrated medicine.
My daughter at the age of IL 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
respectable physician but she still con.
tinued TO decline in health, and al the end
OF SIX months became so weak that she
could not walk, nor keep food on her s;o.
mach, it was SO extremely disordered,
AT this interesting period, one Of our
neighbours recommended your Lozrn.
ges so earnestly, We were induced to
send TO MIR. Blrch'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 q most frigh;ful
appearance, being very whiie, with G
great number of legs, and something
which resembled wings, by which it ap-
peared to spring and which il did re
pealedlY, TO our great surprise, about the
same distance that small toad can hoee

and is now in perfect health.
