The following correspondence has been handed to

Dr. LaWson-Slr: Having been informed that you

including Scrofuia with great success, take
the liberty Of making the inquiry of you whether my
informant was JUSTIFIED in making such report from
your own admission of the fact?
1t you confirm this report should consider it duty
we owe to the cause OF humanity to give il publicity
as much as possible; and, if false, should disabuse
the public mind of the imposition.
DR.. 5. also challenges investigation, to the electro.

Respectfully, B. w.
Dear Sir: Your communication of the 23d inst. was
duly received, and answer should more promptly
have been given but for the want of a leisure hour and
doubt resting on my mind in regard to the proprley
OF noticing anonymous letters
Nothing, now, much influences me to accede to
your wish, as conviction of the importance OF the
facts which you wish to elicit from me, and thereby
dltfuse them more generally through society
have perfect detestaion of everything that has
he n he form pt that
been ge orally denominated "quack medicines and
on this account have always felt deicacy in appen-
ding my name or giving my influence to anything
which may justly be dubbed with such an appea.
ton.
In the case Of Dr.. Sherwood's Remedies, am some.
what relieved from this difficulty, from two considera-
tons: first, from the stubborn fact that, in my
person, derived the most decided beneficial effects
from their use, and at time when all other
were pronounced as incompetent to cure; and in the
second place, from beng myself pretty well acQuaint
ed with the composition OF the 'Remedles"
These two facts will serve as an apology for me in
canddly expressing my opinion with regard to the
diclne 1t did not believe that thousands sut-
terng from diseases incurabe under any other system
OF practice, and certainly durable under this, would
not dare TO offer one word in favor OF Sherwoods Re
medieS. froma CONVICTION OF this kind hesitate not,
tor one moment, to recommend them infinitely SUI
perior, in chronic diseases, to any present

and generally with success. | am, however, Of the
opinion that in advanced stages of pulmonary con-
sumption they are not so etfectua would be led
to suppose from reading Dr.. Sherwoods pamphlet.
In almost every other form OF scrotua they have
surpassed my most sanguine expectations. There are
many citizens OF Cincinnati who will certify to cures
in certain cases. OF long standing, which not bene-
fitted from any which had been pursued land in
these you know everything is tried that is heard
of;) and their certificates will be of sufficient variety
too, to prove all that is claimed for them, even by Dr.
5. himself, with the snge exception have made
above.
| do not wish to be understood 10 convey the idea
that they inalibe; that is not my meaning, nor inn
pression concerning anything this earth but do
believe them to be etectua in curing chronic dsea-
ses as ordinary remedies are in curing The ordinary
diseases OF our climate must be understood to have
In view, IN such a declaration this the exception
which was made, and again referred to.
WIN regard to the symptoms, believe that they
cannot be gainsayed can detect with the greatest
certainty the diseases called by DR.. Sherwood crofua
without any previous knowledge OF the patient, or of
the history of his disease; and this do merely by an
examination ct the cervica glands and spinal column.
The ordinary OF feeling he pulse, locking at
the tongue, and asking a hundred questions more or
less is both useless and waste Of time. do not think
that one skilled in this mode OF examination be
deceived once in hundred cases. In my practice, |
pursue this mode of examination exclusively with a
great saving OF time, and much more satisfactory
suit This is as m Woh, as deem now necessary to
communicate. YOURS &C. b. 5. LAWSON.
