with profuse nght-sweat, hacking cough, oppres-
sion in the breast, splitting blood, with great general
debility. My constitution seemed broken down,
and nervous system very much impaired, with all
the symptoms of confirmed consumption. | went
to Philadelphia, and was treated there by physi
clans of the highest respectablity, but still grew
worse, until they gave me up as incurable, and adj
vised me to go South; but being very poor, after
losing so much time from my work, and having
spent all my money on various "patent medicines, "
which were recommended 80 highly through the
medium Of the press, was unable to take their ad

similar cases, and wish you to make this public,
so that others who suffering as have been may
know where to procure a remedy at first which will
reach their disease, before tamperng with and ruin
ing their constitutions with the many ''uuack nos

prepared by persons who have no knowledge ofthe
science Of medicine in theory practice but are got
up merely with mercenary view.
