CoLLEToN BITTERs.

TNHESE Bitters are purely a vegetable com
IL pound, and are offered to the public from
principle of henevolence under the fullest convic
ton that they will be found safe and sovereign
;emedy for Dyspepsia. They have been trium-
ohantly tested, not only by some Of the most re-
,pectable families and physicians in the State Of
south Carolina, who have furnished ample testi-
mony M to their decided excellence, but ALSO by the
proprietor who for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident TO that stubborn and distressing disease.
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by con-
tnucd use. They contai4aot single deleterious
ingredient and, as seen ff6H the directions which
accompany each bottle, may he given with entire
safety TO an infant in the month.
With pleasure, and for the benefit of mankind, I
send you certificate relative to the Coeton Bit
tiers.
In the year 1898, when. the cholera was In
Charleston S. c., was compelled to send servant
to the city. On his return, he was suddenly attack
ed with most violent pain in his bowels, SO much 80
as to cause apprehension that he would expire in
short time il medical aid could not be procured, l
Immediately resored to the Coleton Bitters, BY CIV
ing wine glass full at dose. Ia the course Of
very short time il acted as an emetic, and throwing
him at the same time into profuse persPiration.
then continued to give il in small doses, from ftco to
three tea spoonsfull, which resulted in happy 70.
coyery. Since then have been using II constantly
in nv family, in cases Of cholera morbus, cholera
inf,ntum, diarhga and general debility, and in
every instance found il highly beneficial. Some
constitutions, however, require much larger doses
than others.

Il is with feelings Of gratitude as well as pleasure
that take this method Of giving my testimony Of
the great estimation which entertain for your In
valuable compound In justice not only to the me-
icne, but for the benefit Of others who may be suf
fering from the malady, Dyspepsia, with which
was for years afflicted, feel il duty incumbent
on mo to state that am now restored to perfect
health. When commenced taking the Colleton
Bitters il was as last resort. My debility from in
digestion was 20 great that cure was looked upon
as almost hopeless. After taking il regularly and
perseverngly for some time, my strength and di-
gestive powers were entirely restored. have never
taken single dose Of any other medicine for moro
than FIVE years past. can now eat the richest food
without any unpleasant feelings whatever. have
also used Coeton Bitters freely in my family for
cholera nfonfun, cholera morbus, general debility,
and as tonic after fever, with great success ASS

party politics or obligations. The letter
was written to Il prominent Democrat and
strengthens the opinion before expressed, as
to his being, if nominated, an independent
candidate. The New York Tribune, in
quoting from New Orleans paper the pro-
liability ofthe old hero's return to the United
States on leave of absence for a few months,
takes occasion to indul ge in fancy sketch,
which though well drawn and pictured,
would be found, we imagine, to fall far short
OF the reality. Referring to Mr. PoIL's
reception at New York. the Tribune thus
introduces the subject -
"ln the midst Of all this tunultuous dis
play, i'll the intcnscst excitement of the oc-
cason, let Il whisper pcrvaIe the crowd
that respectable plain o!d man, with still
somewhat military air, ona WHITE HORSE ,
was slowly riding down the upper end of
Broadway In a moment the whole crowd,
Infancy, manhood, totcring age, will have
disappeared, like the phan,asmasoria of a
vision!
1.-The scene then changes, and we sec
the maddencd crowd rushing as compact
ana rcslStcsS as waves Of the lasled ocean
up the narrow avenue OF Broadway. The
house tops are covered, the windows are
hIlcd, and bcIiries Of churches, however re-
mote, dense with anxious mnlIilu,lcs.
"Thc career Of that white horsc,' which
no enemy could resist on the battle field. is
stopped by the impervious mass of throng
ing friends. Some seize the bride. some
the Stirrup, some clasp the very knees of the
Old man! 1t is silence all! No, a solitary
shout is heard All are too much crcifcI
