LOUISVILLE, April 5, 1855.

LOUISVILLE, Apru ,, IS00. Hurley's Sarsaparilla is what it is repre- sented, and believe it the most wonderful medicine before the public. Nothing under heaven could have induced me to say So with out proof of strongest and surest kind; ; therefore speak willingly and positively on the subject.
 My daughter has been afflicted with skin diseases and stiffness of the joints for several years l employed the principal physicians of this city, and they could not cure her. 1 gave her your SarsapariIla, not expecting it would do much good, but to my great aston ishment she rapidly got well, and thank God, continues so. Had she been taking any other medicines I would not give this certificate : but your SarSaparilla, the only remedy en- ployed, leaves no doubt of its medical quail ties, and that it alone cured her.

 Unlike other compounds, which, when first introduced, are said to possess medical quali- ties, but soon degenerate into injurious trash, this highly concentrated fluid extract is pre- pared with the greatest accuracy and chemi- cal knowledge, entirely of vegetable sub stances, and warrented never to deyiate in strength. The powerful machinery employed and care devoted in combination. together with the important fact that it is the only preparation in America containing Honduras or Para root, establish beyond all doubt that it is the sufferers remedy. Its extensive popularity. and wide-spreading fame, coupled with unparalled cures effected by its agency, have gained both public confidence and pro- fessional reliance. Therefore, henceforth let it be understood, for the proofs are too nu- merous and overwhelming to questioned, that
