SANDY BorroM Middlesex, CO., Va,
August 29ih, 1853
Messrs. Mortimer and Moa9bray:- - You
may think it strange that have taken the liberty
to write you this letter, but do SO under circum-
stances that Justify it. AS you the Agents 1or
HAMPT0N'S VEGETABLE TINCTURE, I deem it
be part of the honorable of giving this med
icine notoriety which its merits deserve
Being in the habit of vending medicines which re-
late to the patent and regular system, consider
myself TO some extent, judge OF the real merit of
many OF them. Ny experience teaches me that
Hdnlpton's 7iRcture" is Medicine of real merit of
intrinsic value When say this. do not say that
1t Is an nfabe cure in all cases, but mean to say
that Hampton's Tincture will fayorabiy operate in
all diseases originating from want of proper secre
lions OF the gastric juices bad digestion, and cons,
quently bad deposits of snitnai matter from that
source. believe that many diseases located in va
rious parts OF the system, such as inflammation, U
GERS, scrofula, DC, originally have their being in
the stomach, from bad food bad digestion. aud con-
parts; and will believe Hampton's Vegetable Tine
ture will even react in those cases. ..
Having found out myself W hat it is recommend
it to others in such cases as have described, and
have done 1t upon the mo cure pay" system and
have yet to have the first bottle returned or the
first objection shout the pay 1t is great pity, it
cannot be more extensively circulated among the
people warrant
1t in the following cases; Gout, rheumatism Inla-
nations, which proceeds from the stomach Scrofula
Sores, Dyspepsia, long standing cases of Ague and
Fever; first stop the chill and then give the Tine.
ture-the difficulty in this case is not in stopping
the chill but the return of it, this the Tincture will
certainly do. In general debliatons l warrant it.
and as said before, have procured trial of it in
this way, which otherwise could not; the people
have been humbugzed by patent medicines so long
that they are afraid of ell. This is clearly stomach
medicine, it works sll its wonders there, and in all
such cases it is specific, if anything in the world
is.
Having given the Tincture fair trial with nv.
self, in my family neighbOrhood, think am war
ranted in what say about it, and which do with
out any other interest t!ian the wish to see it in
general circulation, and in every mans family, just
where it ought to be.
lfwhat say be doubted by any of the afflicted,
and they will write to me at Sandy Bottom Post OF
ice, Middlesex county, Va, stating the nature OF
the disease, and recommend it for such case will
warrant it, and If i don't do good, will pay for the
medicine. Respectfully,

THE GREAT CONVICTION OF
FREEDOM

The State Convention of the friends of
Freedom, held at Columbus on the 18th in
stant, the Anniversary of the Ordinance of
1877, was the beginning of new era in
Ohio. An outraged and nsuted people sent
their representatives there from every part of
the State. Every Congressional District g.
nearly every county in Ohio was represent
ed; and larger. more intelligent, and more
harmonious delegate convention has never
been held in Columbus. Democrats. Wings
and Freeso!ers. forgetful OF all minor party
dI1erences, met together as band of brothers
and formed band of union against the in
Iqnltous aggressions Of The Slave Power. &.
IN vindcation of the Rights and Honor of
the Free States of the North. No sacrifices
OF principle were demanded--none we're
made The platform adopted, may, with the
strictest consistency, be supported by every
Democrat, Whig and Freesoiler in Ohio who
believes that Slavery is a curse to the land,
and that its desolating tide should be stayed.
GTThe Jeifersonville Republican, makes
the following singing commentary on the
whisky resolution of the convention.

made by the propagandis;s Of American
Slavery.
The utmost good feeling prevailed through
out. There was no diversity Of opinion which
dId not rendiIy yield to the general spirit Of
harmony. The Democrats Of Stark Of Rich.

with enthusiasm, with Wings from Cuyahoga,
Ross, Carroll, Ashtobula, Erie, Athens, and
Scioto, in denouncing the perfidious over.

Freesoilera were willing to adopt decisive
eXpedents, they were also prompt to ac.
quescc in such means as would unite all in
a determination 10 resist and repeal the pro.
gress Of Slavery.

The Convention was the largest delegate

posed Of IN en- Of all parties, who think more

greatest harmony prevailed in the Conyen.
ton and characterized all their acts. No
one in the Convention seemed at all disposed
to endeavor to make himself or his party
more prominent than others,or 10 shape things
in such way as to secure ultimate aJvan
tage to any particular party existing hereto
fore. Nor was any effort made to bring
about "iuson" of elements for the forina-
ton of net party. Democrats, Wings, and
Free Democrats, all manifested willingness
to worl: togsther for the accomplishment Of
common end, deemed by all of more import
ance than party triumph, leaving future ac-
tion to be governed by circumstances as they
transpire. The views of the people o. the
State at large, were correctly apprehended
by the assembled delegates, and the duties
with which they were charged were faithfully
performed.
