TO A DISCERNING PUBLIC.

MISREPRESENTATION is IN inherent princi-
- pie firmly seated in the heart OF man. He
alights upon the shores Of Time the most helpless
Of sil Gods creatures, but soon as Reason rears
her standard, he sees. and thinks. and encircles
himself with objects Of pIo.ection; being endowed
With that moot noble intellect which distinguishes
him a. the head Of oil. BY his power mountains
are leveled, rivers are turned from their course,
the land il bound with iron bound tracks, enabling
him TO fy, az il were, with the wings Of the wind;
the ocean sparkles beneath his feet as the gallant
ship speeds on to some distant shore. But with
ell this delegated wisdom man is helpless still as
the green foliage Of nature is destroyed by the au
tumns frosts, so are men cui down BY the hand Of
disease. II walks abroad and we cannot stay it's
progress; men fall by the wayside and others
mourn their loss. But as the history Of mankind
evieces gradual Improvement who will say that
suffering and pain is to accompany us in all our
walks Of life. Among the many and important
discoveries of this generation 10 one recently an.
nounced to the public, whose fame will be written
as with sunbeam in the history of the past
SANDS SARSAPARlLLA stands forth alone,
and by its own works proclaims its power-that
mute eloquence, so iIresisby affecting in the ap-
peas of the suffering for relief has been answered
Diseases have been cured by this invaluable med
cine, such as are not furnished in the records Of
time. These things are not done in secret places,
or some unknown town, but done in public
places and the highways. They are brought be-
fore the world to substantiste beyond doubt the
healing virtues Of this new preparation, and the
facts unfolded, although gigantic, are as plain az
the light Of day; and where is that High Priest Of

Mes1s Sands-Gent: ln the cholera summer Of
the year 1882, disease fret msde its appearance
on the end Of my tongue which continued to spread
gradually for three years, during which time was
under the treatment Of different physicians with
out receiving any essential benefit. I was sslivat-
ed until the flesh dropped from my gums. My
tongue was scari6ed, frequently csuterized, sill
lengthwise and cut crosswise, until was told thai
the only cure would be to cut my tongue of at the
root; but as IL seemed uncertain whether this
world put stop to the ravages of such disease
| preferred 10 risk my life rather than submit, tt
the operation.
| A scrofulous affection now commenced on m,
right check little below the eve, and continuing
inward soon attacked the bone, forming matter ia
ternally, which discharged in the mouth through
an opening caused BY the extraction Of tooth
The disease then seized upon the roof OF the mouti
lust under the opening from the nose, and soon lie
stroying the bone, continued its progress opwar'
and backward into the bones Of the nose, which
destroyed together with the carriages. A gather
Jog then took place In my head, which discharges
thick fetid matter from my nose, which resem
bled soft bones or shells, as itcame gu, in string
as large and round goose quill. Pieces Of bon
also dropped from my head into the mouth throus
the passage made by the disease In the upper Jaw
The complaint now spread over the nose and enve
oped both eyes, destroying both eye-lashes an
stopping the opening from the eyes TO the nose
which caused almost continual ho~ OF tears. A
this time my smell and taste we're both gone, m
hearing nearly so, and my sight so much impaire
as to render il impossible for me to distinguish
object at the distance Of two feet. My memor
also was mach affected that could not retail
any thing heard said for Ave minutes; and m
condition. II not wholly, nearly that of idocit,
The disease occasionally appeared to be bettel
and then looked toward death as the terminatio
Of nv sufferings

cures Of your Ssrssrsrills, hope sprung up sfresl
