from the Murfressboro, Gazette

MEssRs. EDITORS. In looking over the last num-
Der of the Gazette, I found a communication from
our friend, Nh. L. T. Spiers, recommending DR.. R.
H. Worthington's Cholera Mixture to the public,
for the cure of diarrhoa, dysentery, and other kim
dred diseases. Having experienced in my own case,
the happy effects of its use, as we'll as other members
of my family, I can safely say that I regard it su-
perior to any remedy we have ever used, in an ex-
perience of twenty years. would, therefore, re-
commendi it to everyfamily as an invaluable remedy
and every individual to procure a bottle and keeE
it by them in these times of cholera.

Murfreesboro,' Aug. 3Oth, 1854.

This is to certify that I have used DR.. R. Il.
Worthington's Cholera medicine in my family for
the last four or five weeks, in several cases of Bowel
Complaint, SO common in our vicinity, with inva-
riable success. One of the cases was that of negro
child, some four or five mounths old, who was so
emaciated by the effects of the disease, that its life
was nearly d~espaired of when my wife happened to
think that she would try the Cholera Medicine
and did SO with complete success in less than forty
eight hours. 1 am t~hroughly of opinion that NJ
family, should be without so fine a medicine.

9pO THE P~UBLIC.-The subscriber plea
4 sed to inform the public that his cholera
and Diarrhea Medicine affords more prompt relief
in the various affections of the Bowels, and conse-
quently more satisfaction to all VINO nave used II,
than any other Medicine ever offered to the public.
The following are among many testimonials of its
efficacy.
DIR. R. Fl. WoRrH1NGToN-DEAR SIR: I take
much pleasure in adding my testimony TO others
in favor of your remedy for Bowel Affections, &C.,
having so frequently experienced its benefc4alre-
suits in my own case, as well as in many others to
whom 1 have given it. 1 carrieda bottle OF it with
me to Baltimore, (and here permit me tosay would
as soon think of travelling without money as WIN
out this remedy and finding many among my &C
quaintances there who were suffering with various
forms of Bowel Affections, | gave 1T freely, andln
NO INSTANCE did it fill to afford the MOST PROMPT
AND DECIDED RELIEF as it has done mere. L con-
graduate you, and especially the public on the as
covery of a medicine which is better calculated to
protect mankind and alleviate suffering than any
L. I. sPIERs.
This is to certify that some weeks back I was
taken with a violent Diarreoea, which persisted for
eight days. Being some sixty miles from home,
l made use ofall the remedies I could think of, but
without affording any relief. On arriving at home,
/ was informed that DIR. h. ID. Wortnlngton mao
prepared a remedy for Cholera, &C., and was adyi-
sed to use it. I did so, and to my astonishment
one single dose gave speedy and permanent relief
since which time I have used it frequently In my
family and, in justice to the Doctor, say l consider
it much the most valuable medicine | have used IL
an experience of twenty years.
Murfreesboro,' N. c.; Oct. 2, 1854.
DIR. WoRTHINGToN-DEAR SIR; l take grea
pleasure in recommending your Cholera Medicin
to the public and more especially since I have ha
personal experience and observation of its benef
cial effects.
I have tried several remedies put up for Cholerf
&c, but have never found such happy results frol
any as from your invaluable remedy. I have sue
unbounded confidence in it's efficacy, that I am III
willing and will not leave home without a suppl
with me-; and I regard it as one of the most valu;
BILE discoveries of the age. Yours, very truly.
