 DR. J. M. SLEDGE-Dear Sir: After my re- spects to you, please let me say to you that my friend, MT. F. Russer, the gentleman to whom went with to sea from Galatin, has im- proved to the extent that he is able to go any where his business calls him; in fact your medicine has performed such miraculous cures, in every instance where it has been tried, that having gone into business at Hazle- hurst, the depot near me, have concluded to try some of your Compounds, as understood you to say when you were here that you would take of 20 or 25 per cent. You will therefore please send to me say IS bottles Cholera Medicine, IS bottles Nerve and Bone Eminent, 24 bottles Hoarhound Pectoral, and the balance of the One Hundred Dollars which you will find enclosed, in your Nervous Tonic. send the right hand end of the money, and on the reception of the first half, you will please send the medicine and write to me, and 1 will send the other half l expect you to send me your Nervous Tonic at Sl 60, as you sold it at S2 % by the single bottle. Do not delay sending the Medicine, as there is con- siderable demand or call for it. MT. Peave, who was given over to die in a few days, is up and going about, and have no douht he will recover.

 Dear Sir--In conversation with your agent, learned that some prejudiced persons, which are to be found everywhere, against patent med icines, spoke of your medicines as not doing much for themselves or any one else. To see justice done between all parties, and to enable others, if they wish, to receive the same bene- fits that have from your medicines, l will simply give you statement of facts, which you can make any use of you please. If any on IA,, {a 1nf tho,,N T fy them. l am probably as well known as any one in this portion of the State, but l am not in the habit of giving certificates, but feel that in giving this one l am fully justifed.-- My son was taken sick with the Flux last July, and lay seventeen or eighteen days when all hope on my part was gone, and nothing ap- peared to do him any good I commenced giv- ing him your DiarrhGa or FIux Syrup, and he commenced mending immediately. 1 verify believe itwas the saving of his life. You have the facts. Hoping that others may receive the benefit that my son did, remain, yours respectfully, JOHN F. ANDERSON.

 DR. SLEDGE Dear Sir: Your medicines nave rendered general satisfaction here; they have even gone beyond the fattering recom- mendation given by yourself. 1 have used in my family, with unparalleled success, your Nervous Tonic, your Diarrh9a Syrup, and your Liniment and Hoarhound Pectoral and have found them superior to any medicines ever used here, for the various diseases arising from miasmatic country like this, where Fever and Ague, Diarrhea and Rheumatism, are the prevailing diseases. Your Nervous Tonic has been used by many others as well as myself, as preventive of Fever and Ague and it has invariably given satisfaction. l for one say emphatically that it will prevent Chills and Fevers, if taken according to the directions; and that one bottle will save any family ten times the cost, if used as a preven- tive. used it in my family last year, and will certify on oath that one bottle saved me at least ten times it's cost. The three years vevious to last year, not one of us escaped
 2 Chills and Fevers, and last year we used V one of your bottles of Nervous Tonic;
