No word of commendation is necessary
to secure for the following letter the at.

ception, the invective that blasts, as with
a stroke of lightning, the power of argu-
ment, and the tone of earnest and eloquent
defamation, which characterize the pub

spicuous in the productions of his pen, and
have given him rank among writer's quite
as distinguished as thatswhich he has long
maintained among orators. In the follow

nature and thepopuIar qualities of his gc-

DR. ROGERS LlVERWO WORT, TAR AND CAN
CHALAGUA has rescued its multitudes from the
grave. Do you ask for the cvidencel THEN
CALL ON THE AGENT, and get pamphlet; a
newspaper is too small to contain it. In the
Pamphlet you will find well authenticated cases
of individuals who were, in very deed rescued
from the grave; for they were upon the very verge
of it, and given up to die by your best Physicians
and most skillful Medical Professors, when the
Liverwort and Tar came to their rescue and de-
livered tn m back to their frienIs. Although
many ofthe cures seem almost incredible, yet they
are not obscure; we have given their real numes,
and their exact place of residence, so that they
may be seen, and the facts heard from their own
mouths. These cures are fully corroborated by
Physicians and Professors OF Medicine who are
well known and are of the highest standing in our
land, who have been compelled to yield to these
stubborn facts; no one can dispute such evidence.
We Challenge the Whole World
To produce more real bona fde evidence in any
court of justice, than we have in favor of this
medicine
We defy the physicians of every school, and oil
the Medicines that have ever been invented, to
produce evidence Of such remarkable cures as
have been made by DR., RoGER's LIvERwoRT, TAR
AND CANcHALAGuk.
We Confidently Ask The afflicted
(NoT TO PURCHASE OUR MEDICINEs)
But to examine our Pamphlet, and see for them
selves, whether the evidence is as convincing as
we say it is; if so, it may prove great blessing
to you.
