 GENTLEMEN A desire 10 benefit the af- ilcted throughout rhe land has alone indu- ced me 10 make the following statement of facts respecting one of the mos, astonsh- ing cures ever recorded My son, now IT years old, has been afflicted during his uhole hfe with constant cough pain in his side and chest accompanied with night sweats and hectic fever, which prodaced great ems acation and debility and at intervals du- ring the night his expec'oration would be- come so great as to endanger his life from strangulaion. Dining this time he was attended by many physicians of the high est repute. whose prescriptions gave but temporary reliel-ln fact so alarming were the symptoms, and so invelerate was his disease, that was compelled to believe him beyond he reach of medical aid.
 All of our neighbors and friends who saw him. regarded him as one who was rapidly approaching an early and prema rare grave. Alter having rhus exhausted the skill Of our best physicians without obtaining relief, [ wes prevailed upon, by lhe advice of friend, to make use of Jjisfar's Bdlsana of Wild Cherry
 He commenced it's use about the 30h of December, l844, the first b1tlle of which gave astonishing relief, and began again 10 indulge in the fond hope that he might yet be restored 10 health.
 After having continued the use oft until three bottles had been taken. the disease was entirely overcome, and his shattered constitution and fmaciated form restored to sound and permanent health, which he con- tl.ues to enjoy up to the present time.
 believe the genuine pr. Wspr's Bal~ sam ot Wild Cherry to be one of the most valuable edicines ever discovered-know-. ing, as do, thai the above cure was effect. ed solely by its use.
 l am, gentlemen. your most ob't serv't,.
