'DE,R SIR-Agreeableto your request have with
difficulty procured and now send YOU by the ship Jason,
Capt. Robertson, a w pounds Of Poladelphis, or what
generally goes by the name of India Extract, a medi-
cine universally esteemed among the people of India,
for the cure of Rheumatism. Was to inform you of the
number of people who are daily relieved and curedby
this valuable remedy, it would require more paper than
| am able to purchase, and more time than am able to
bestow. Indeed, the effect of this Medicine is so i'm.
mediate, that in RHEUMATISM you would in some cases
suppose it acted almost like a charm in rem owing that
painful disease. The difficulty, however in procuring
the Extract, will, for many years, retard its general cir
%culation. 1t being obtained from a Shrub growing on
the Mountains of TIBET, in the BermanEmpireo of India,
and held in so much repute by the Nai;res, that to part
with it, is like parting with their existence" THE usual
mode oftaking II is in the form Of Pills. | shall use
all my endeavors to send you a constant supply.
Since the proprietor has received the acknowledging,
he has put it up in boxes made for the purpose, con-
tanning sixty pills, with a bill of directions and a certif-
cate of its being genuine, signed in his own hand writ
ing-and in order to show its vast importance, has
thought proper to submit for public inspection, a few
out Of a vast number of Certificates from people who
have been cured by it in Europe and America.

Extract of a Letter from a respectable Physician in Bel
ford County, State Of Pennsylvania, to the agent Of
the proprietor.
There is in my neighbourhood a gentleman who has
been heavily afflicted with Rheumatism for many years.
He has been using the Panacea, to the amount OF SIX or
seven bottles without any effect, on seeing the Poladcl-
bphis advertised, he got friend TO call at Mr. Desilver's
book store, in Market street, for a box OF the pills which
he is using, and receiving much benefit fromit; and l
am of an opinion that one or two boxes more Will pro-
duce a radical cure. | believe it to be valuable medicine.
