A EaUMAN LIFE SAVED !
March 81, 1856,

OoWhViho, sliCu., lOOO.
J. A. RHODES, Esq: Dear SiT-As TOOL
your medicine to sell on consignment, "n,
cure no pay" take pleasure in stating It's ef
fects as reported 10 me by three brothers VIII,
live IN this place, and their testimony is
fair specimen of all have teceived.
w. S. CONkLIN told me--tT had taker
nine bottles OF Christie's Ague Balsan, ant
continually run down while using it unit
my lungs and liver were congesied 10 tha
degree that blood discharged from my mouli
and bowels, SO that all thought il impossible
for me TO live through another chill. The
doctors loo did all they could for me, bu
thought | mus, die. Nothing did me any
good until l got Rhodes Fever and Ague
Cure, which at once relieved me of the dis
tress and nausea at my stomach and pain in
my head and bowels, and produced perma
nent cure in short time"
II. M. CONKLlN says--sT had been TAX.
ing medicine of as good doctor as we have
in our country, and takerr any-quantity oil
quinine and specifies without any good result
from 25ih August to nth December. Bui
seeing how nicely il operated on my brother,
| got bottle of Rhodes Fever and Ague
Cure, which effected a permanent cure BY
using two thirds of bottle"
S. M. CONKLIN was not here, bu, both
the other brothers say his case was the same
as H. Ms / sold the medicine 10 both The
same day. and the cure was as speedy from
the same small quantity, and m ght so spe.
city. Yours with respect,
A. HUNTINGTON.
The above speaks for itself Good proof
as il is, il is of no better tenor than the vast
number of like certificates | have already
published, and the still greater amount that
is continually pouring in 10 me.
One thing more. Last year had occasion
to caution the public in these words:
81 notice one firm who have taken one OF
my generel circulars, substituted the name
OF their noslrum for MY medicine, and then
with brazen impudence end their pamphlet
with the exclamation, Let the Proprietor Of
any other medicine say SO mach if he dares, !
&c. sc.
: Now take pleasure in saying that The
Caution referred 10 the same "Dr Chrstie's
Ague Balsam" that is mentioned in the above
certificate.
There are several other industrious people
who are applying TO theis poisonous trash all
that publish about my Fever and Agne
Cure, or Antidote 10 Malaria, except the Ger.
iificates OF cures, and the certificate of the
celebrated Chemist, DR.. James r. Chiffon,
OF New York, in favor of lis perfectly harm
less character, which is attached 10 every
bottle. These will always serve to distin-
guish my medicine from limitations.

The grand inquest OF the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania inquiring for the body of
the County OF Columbia respectfully RE.
PORT that they have examined the public
buildings belonging to said county and find
them in tolsrable good condition-the repairs
recommended in the last report having been

the painting about .he Court House, and re-.
commend that it be painted anew. We
would also direct attention 10 the privy be.
longing TO said county building, and recon.
mend that the necessary repairs be done.-
We have found the walls in the hall of The
basement story of The courthouse much de-
faced, TO which we would direct attention
and recommend that The necessary repairs
be made. And we further report that the
roads in Scott township have been represent.

low of death, was greater than Napoleon at
Austerlitz. And Thomas Holloway, whose
ines,imable medicines are subduing disease
of every type, in every part OF the habitable
globe, is more worthy of respect and honor
than any warrior that ever drew the sword.
When Kossulh visited the United States he
was designated by one of our clergy as the
providenlial man. Surely Professor Hoilo.
way, who has come 10 our country on no.
bier erand, better deserves the lille. His
establishment in New York has been the
fontal source of health 10 thousands of our
afflicted fellow citizens. His agencies, es.
iablished in every city and town of the Union,
are the peoples dispensaries. What is true
of the popularity Of his medicines here, is
true throughout the world for wherever civ
ilizaiion has penetrated, by land or sea, they
are known and appreciated. From Green
land 10 Terra del Fuego-from the Mississip-
pi 10 the Ganges-they are advertised in ev-
cry printed language, and iesorted 10 by ra.
ces of every name and color, as the only re-
liable and proven remedies IN all the phases
of disease. The leading medical periodicals
of London and Edinburg not only except Ho-
ioway's PilIs and Ointment from their gener.
al denunclations of patent medicines, but un-
reservedy commend them. 10 short, if we
are 10 believe concurrent testimony Of all ma
tions, Professor Holloway has done more 10
Ameliorate human suffering and rob the grave
OF victims, than any other medical discover
or of this or any former age. We have un-
questionable authority for saying that his
central Offices for the old and new world
London and New York-send out annually
more than ten millions of dollars worth of
his medicines. The statistics of the cures
effected by their means. cannot, of course,
be ascertained, but judging from the facts
within our own limited sphere of observation
We should say that no ordinary quarto volume
could contain the record. Surely the dscov-
erer and philanthropist who has accomplish
ed such results may, without arrogance, be
styled prouidentiai MANN. o. Picayune

last year and the difficulty 10 getting any one

that remedy had been introduced which
was growing in favor with the public, as be-
ing better than using Quinine,-no knowing
presume that the remedy they needed TO
escape taking Quinine, contained the DRUG

This remedy, (known as "Smith's Tonic, ~
would invariably BREAK an ague, bu: it did
not CURE it, and il would often return with
renewed vigor. The one circumstance
deemed in your favor, if could institute a
test comparison between it and your CURE.
The following is the result:
Three persons took your "Cure," all of
which were cases of "Quolidian Iniermt-
tent Fever" of many weeks standing. They
had tried Quinine, and other remedies, occa-
sionally missing chill, but it was, Gas in all

remedy, and they have moi had chill since.
In all three OF these cases the "Smith's Tom

ted, break the chill, but after period or two
had elapsed il would return.

giving 10 your "Cure" the vantage ground of
any other remedy now in use here, SC. &c.

CHAMPION!!

The only Safe sohich. in epery instance,

the late Extensive Fires.
A T THE BURNING OF THE ARTIZAN
a BUILDINGS, April 10th, and IN the great
fire in Market Street, May 1st, 1856, the gen.
uine HERRINe SAFE preserved the Jewelry oil
George w. Simms & Bro Books, Papers &c.
of Fisher & Bro. and Edward Semans & Co.,
after remaining exposed in the burning ruins
for nearly Forty Hours, and proving conclu-
sively what we have always claimed for
hem, their great superiority over all securi-
lies known.
In these fires, the HERRiNG'S SAFE,
standing side by side with those advertised
as "wananted 10 stand 10 per cent. more fire
Than Herring's, "came forth the acknowledg
ed victor, not only preserving their contents
in excellent order, but being themselves in a
condition TO go through another ordeal, while
the boasted "Salemanders" of other makers
were badly used up in every instance, and
in some cases their entire contents completely
destroyed.
To the public we would simply say, that,
daring the fourteen years of the Herriug's
Safe has been before them, more than two
hundred have passed through accidental fires
without The occurrence of single loss.
We would, therefore, caution purchasers
against The misrepresentation of interested
paraes. The Herrins's Patent is the only
Fire-proof Safe made in this city which is
protected by a Patent Right, and we will
guarantee il 10 resist more than double the
amount of heat of any other Safe now known.
