DEAR SIR-It is now upwards Of twenty years that l

most every description of disease, and believe they
we'd many long doctors bill by their early and timely
use. never found their accustomed certainty to vary
in their operation and effects until few months past
and having. since then, been sadly disappointed in
ry instance of using them began to conclude that you
had made your fortune, and abandoned their manufac
ture to mercenary and untaithfu hands. Under this
impression, accidentally saw an advertisement of
yoursin New York newspaper, designating spurious
limitations from your own manufacture by having your
WRITTEN SIGNATURE to each bill Of directions.
and that in instance were the limitations signed with
pen and ink, although perfect copy in every other
respect Finding those had without this test. be-.
gan to suspect that $ all not fair in medicine.

them. found the effects from them had always
experienced and am much rejoiced on finding my
selfin possession Of medicine so highly price, that
that cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this
information.
u To avoid the imposition ofcounterfeits and spu-
rious limitations, related above, the purchaser has
only to examine the bill of directions covering each

TcoMMuNICATED.

Mr.. Snocden:-I entirely agree with you that
all exciting and generating causes OF disease,
so far as they may have origin in any foul col
lection of matter in cur streets, lanes, AID IL
leys should receive the immediate and constant
attention of the public authorities wiz lie vie"
of preventing their accumulation and 70 eject
their removal And, sir, in turn. oY not sup
pose you will agree with ne TIL. inc entire ex-
pense should be paid By the pubic. This is not
the case: but on the contrary, considerable
part Of it is done at the expense of an indivi-
dual. This no one, who is competent to judge
will or can deny.
But, Mr. Snowden, if the public interest and
public health demand all this of one class Of
public authorities in the honest and faithful dis
charge Of their duties, which are heavy and
costly to execute, is there not another class of
public authorities who are bound, by every prln-
ciple Of common justice, to see that the individu'
al who does the work be justly paid, according
to the laws of the Corporation of Alexandria
in such cases made and provided. M.

siopal services to the citizens Of Alexandria, D.
c. and the public in general, and is ready to be
consulted GRATIS in all cases of disease Incl
dent to the human frame, but more especially in
that virulent and almost yet unconquerable dis
ease the CANCER, as unquestonabe authority
can prove the cure of the most awful case which
ever afflicted one Of the human family. To
those afflicted with this direful scourge, with
hundreds of others, he particularly refers to the
cure of James Bond, slave, formerly the pro-
perty Of Miss Sally Griffith Of this city, whose
desperate situation though for series Of years
laboring under this affection, yielded to his
skill, though it had baffled the science of most
of the faculty. Hopeless of relief in reduced
situation, abandoned by his friends, and seek
ing aims of the public, whose eye must revolt at
sight which would shock the finer feelings of
mankind; at this time, fortunately for this OBJ
iect ofpty, Dr. H. felt confident that he was his
Creators instrument to effect his cure, and is
now living witness of the truth of this asser-
ton by proper medicine, properly applied.
