From Gov. Tucker.

For the benefit of suffering humanity, as well as
an act Of justice TO DR.. SAMUEL GILBERT, |
make the following state,nent:-That in June last
I had u small tumor upon my face, rather between
my nose and cheek, which gradually increased dur
ing the past summer in size aud extent; OH accom-
Of which l consulted several truly eminent phySi-
clans, under whose treatment l received no benefit.
In the latter part of last January visited New Or
leans. In the space Of seven days, before reaching
the city, the tnmor had greatly enlarged, and the
inflammation increased to an alarming extent; so
much so, that from the inner corner Of my eye TO
the end of my nose, and out to my cheek bone, be-
came literally a lump of putrid flesh. The disease
had also made its appearance on ,be opposite side
Of my nose. In this condition l presented myself
to Dr.. Samuel Gilbert, not knowing with what dis
ease l was afflicted. DIR. Gilbert promptly pro-
nounced it an eating Cancer of the most virulent
character. put myself under his treatment. He
extracted the tumor without the use of the knife.
and in four weeks my face was well, as l then and
still believe. II. NJ. TUCKER. q

medical aid in the country. The disease made its
appearance OH M upper eyelids, and continued to

Gilbert's success in the treatment of such cases, |
