I wish to bear testimony to DR.. GILBERTS
skill, through your valuable and truly independent
paper. l was sorely afflicted with hereditary cam
Ger; the disease killed my father, who had the best
medical aid in the country. The disease made its
appearance on my upper eyelids. and confined to
spread and pain me severely, until l well nigh lost
my sight: l could scarcely discern a horse from a
man across the street. Having often heard of DR..
Gilbert's success in the reatment of such cases, |
left the State Of Pennsylvania aud came to New
Orleans-was put under reatment-and, l am
happy to say, soon cured. and no sign of the dis
ease left, and my sight perfectly restored. This day

ted in their utmost strength and efficacy. Expe-
riments were made in the manufacture of this
medicine until it was found it could not be i'm
proved. Accordingly, we find it resorted to al
most universally in cases of S%crofula, Liver Dis
eases, Salt Rheum, General Prostitution of the Vi

the skin so trying to the patience and injurious to
the health. 1t Is a tonic, aperlent and dlsinfec-

Messrs. Sands-Gentlemen-Itak take the liberty of
sending you a letter which may be of importance
to those who are suffering as l have done. | receiv-
ed great benefit from your Sarsparilla, having been
cured of a malady after suffering six years. l
hereby cheerfully certify to the good effect of
your medicines, and l hope God will reward you
for all the good you have done. A chronic cough
had tormented me day and night, and repeated at
tacks Of fever induced me to believe that l should
die with consumption. One day, while suffering
with a violent attack of burning fever, a friend
persuaded me to try your Incompatible medicine,
but to tell the truth, l had no confidence in it. |
finally purchased a bottle, and by its use and the
help of God | was restored to better health than
| had enjoyed for six years. 1 cannot but bless
the author of this admirable medicine. With
great respect, I am, gentlemen,

From the New York Tribune.l
Faint Not.
Why do I weep for the buried hours,
Or mourn the neglected Past?
Why wall Ger its sad and desolate bowers,
Or sigh for its beautiful human flowers,
Too fragile and fair to last?
The outward semblance, indeed, is flown;
Earth, earthly" is in the dnst;
But the exhaled spirit still liveth on
In bowers of beauty beyond the sun,
Immortal among the Just.
Despond no longer then, desolate heart;
Look we'll to thy future life
''Time is feeting," and "long is art"
Wisely and faithfully act thy part,
Nor faint in the worlds great strife.
For the Ages, not Hours, be thine ~endeavor,
Thought liveth when brains are cold;
Self from humanity thou may'st not sever:
Thou may'st perish-humanity never;
1t lveth still-liveth on forever,
When systems and suns grow old.

have sold, since last October, eighty-two bottle
at retail, and have heard from a great proportion
of them, as producing the desired effect.
Several important cases in this vicinity, which
came under our personal knowledge, haze bee,
cured other remedies have been tried fo
! years without effect.
In fact, we think it one of the most invaluble
remedies for Consumption of the Lungs, and all
other complaints for which it is recommended"
DR.. William Y. Banks, of Xenia, Ohio, a highly
respectable Druggist in that delightful village in
Cherry is unparuNcd. The demand for it is So
eager, that he can scarcely keep himself supplied
with it.
DR.. Ritchey, of Franklin, Ia, who stands high
in his profession, in commentator of the "Genu-
Inc Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry" says:
"The effects of the Balsam are, in many cases
strikingly beneficial. 70 1t improves upon &C.

to be the most highly valued by those who have
tested its virtue and experience its healing efica-
cy in their own cases.
O. DR.. Nm. H. Baker, of Springfield, Wash
ington Co., Ky, uas cured by Histar's Balsam
alone, after fre years Of the most intense suffering,
and the hial Of nearly every other remedy. 81
He says: "Atter five years %affiction, pain and
suffering, and after having spent four OF five hun |
dred dollars to no purpose, and the best and most
respectable physicians had proved unavailing, |
was soon restored to entire health, by the bIes-
sing of God and the use Of "Dr. Wistar's Balsam
of Wild Cherry"
In conclusion, we would say to all, try this excel
lent remedy; a few bottles timely used may save
you hundreds ofdollars-perhaps your life.
&C. Beware of counterfeits and mutations

Remember, they emily initiate in name, without
