FROM ELERY E. CAHOON.

BREWSTER, Mass, March 10, 1863
DIR. PoLAND:-I feel it my duty to inform you of
the very i benefit which have received from the
use Of your White Pine Compound. In August, 1861,
took very severe cold, which continued to allict
me, increasing in severity, attended with very Sc
we're cough, night sweats and some bleeding proha.
bly, from the throat Through the fall and winter my
cough very distressing, reducing my flesh and
strength and rendering unit for labor. L tried
medicines Of various kinds, but none of them, how
ever valuable, gave me any reilef In March, 1862,
as you may remember, wrote to you stating my dir
cultes and asking advice. You sent me some of the
White Pine Compound. Icommenced taking it, and
Immediately began to amend. At the time of writ
ing to you my weight was only l35 pounds. In five
weeks was out in active labor, and in few months
gained Up to les pounds. / kn0U that it was the
White Pine Compound which did all this for me. L
soon began to have persons apply tome for the medi-
cine, and as you SNOW, ordered ittor sale. In eight
months, though without much exertion, disposed of
$40 bottles of the Compound here on the Cape.
Iwould add that several persons Of my acquaint
ance, whose condition was as hopeless as my own,
have been cured by the White Pine Compound.
The hite Fine compound, advertised at length in
our columns, not only to its name inviting, but
ahghly approved medicine, DIR. j. 's. Poland, the
inven or, has the confidence of he many who Know
him, confidence which he enjoyed while laboring
usefully many years Baptist minister. His expe-
rence a sufferer led HIM to make experiments
which issued in his medical discovery. IBostou
Wdtchnan pnd Reflector ~ - II 1T
Mirror, in leader of the Daily, thus speaks of the
.'The hite Pine Compound is advertised at much
length in our co umns and we are happy to learn
that the demand for it is increasing beyond all prev-
GUS expectations. 1t is the very best medicine for
coughs and colds know OF, and no family that has
once used i, will ever be without it, We speak from
our own knowledge, it is sure to kill cold, and cas-
ant as sure The greatest inventions come by acct
deut, and it isrsngular that the Viii zine Com
pound, made for Colds and Coughs, should prove to
be the greatest remedy for kidney difficulties known
But so it is. We cannot doubt it, so many testimos
malls come te us from wei, known men. Besides the
character of DIR. Pc and is such thatwe know he will
not countenance what is wrong. For years Bap-
fist clergyman, studying medicine to find remedies
for his ailments, with delicate comsumptye look,
standing with one foot upon the grave, he made the
discovery which has saved him elf and called out
from hundreds of others the strongest testimonials
possible. We have know DIR. Poland for years, and
never knew a more conscientious, honest, upright
man. and we are glad to state that we believe what
ever he says about his White Pine Compound.

CATION TO THE PUBLIC.

Every intelligent and thinking person must know
that remedies handed out for general should have
their efficacy established by well tested experience in
the hands Of regularly educated physician, whose
preparatory studies fits him for all the duties he must
luinli yet the country is Hooded with poor nostrums
anu eure-als purporting to be the best in the world
are not only useless, but always injurious. The un-
fortunate should be PARTICULAR in selecting his
physician, as 1t is lamentable yet incontrovert-
able met that many syphiitc patients are made
from inexperienced physicians in general practice;
Tor it is point generally conceded by the best syph-
ographers that the study and management Of these
complaints should engross the whole time OF those
who would be competent and successful in their treat
ment and cure. The inexperienced general practit-
Toner, having neither opportunity nor time to make
pursues one system of treatment in most maxi
ing indiscriminate of that antIuated and dam
gerous weapon, the Mercury.

Love in q Cottage.
BY N. p. Wilt

They NAV talk of love in cottage,
And bowers of trellised vine|
And nature bewitchingly siinpio'
And milkmaids half divine; 3 s,aen;no
Thew may talk of the pleasures Siee
In the shade of a spreading IL,
And a walk in the telds az t me
BY the side of ioots'ep ne''
Rut give me sly Irritation,
By the light of chanueler-
with music to play in the piluses,
And nobody very near;
Or a seat ON silken SOFA,
With glass of pure old VINE,
AID mama TOO blind to discover
The small white hand IN mine.
Your love in a cottage is hungry,
Your vine is a nest for lilies
Your milkmaid shocks the Graces,
And simplicity talks of piesi
You lie down to your shay slumbers
And wake with bug in your ear,
And your damsel that walks in the morning
Is shod like mountaineer.
True love is at home on carpet,
And nightly likes his ease
And true love has an eye for dinner,
And starves beneath shady trees,
His wing is the fan of lady,
His foot an invisible thing,
And his arrow is tipped with n Jewel,
And shot from silver string.
