ed several Physicians without getting any relief
He was covered with spots and sores from his ank-
les to his head, and he is happy to inform the pub
lie that he Is now free from every appearance of
disease and is in better health than he has been for
years
Another of the number came down from the most
northern mines, suffering from what is called Semi
nal weakness. He bad become weak, he could
not work for loss of memory, dimness of sight, &c.
and he will be happy to speak forl himself; If any
doubt it, he can be seen at the above mentioned
Doctors Office. The Others were recent complaints
and were perfectly cured in six days, and are now
perfectly well and hearty. ] myself have been
troubled with disease for the last six months and
