 Dr. Poland-I received your letter inquir- ing as to the effects of your medicine on sea sickness. am happy to say that think it is ' the medicine" for that dreadful sickness. tried various prescriptions, but found none that settled the stomach and cleared the head like the Humor Doctor. I felt as though I could hardly wait to get ashore. to entreat you to introduce it into the ship chandlerv stores, that it may find its way to those who suffer upon the mighty deep from sea-sickness If captains who take their families with them or carry passengers, should try it for once. they would meyer be willing to voyage with out it.
 I have used it in my family since its intro duction to the public; for bilious habits. headache, and humors about my children, and have always found it sure cure.
 am not fond of having my name appear in public. and would not consent to it on any ac- count but to relieve the suffering but, if the foregoing will be of any service to you or the public, you can make use of it.
 PRICE 75 CENTS PER BOTTLE. This invaluable Medicine will be prepared for the present at the

thePurifylng of the Blood. .Dr.J.W.POland's HUMOR DOCTOR. A Positive Remedy for all kinds o1
 Humors,
 PARTICULARLY Erysipelas, Kettle Rash, Salt Rheum. sorofula, carbunoles Boils and Piles

It is very easy to say of this. or any oth CT Medicine, .' It is the lest Remedy ever known 2t is not always so easy to prove il It is, however, exceedingly gratifying to the proprietor Of this Medicine, that, while he de- clares to the public that this is most won- derfu and effectiveSpeci6c for Humors as Sta ted above. he has abundant proof at hand to sustain his statement.
 For sixteen years the HUMoR DOCTOR has been manufactured and sold, and every year has increased the value of its reputation, and the amount of it's sales In New Hampshire where it originated, no remedy for Humors is so highly prized. An eminent physician (now an army surgeon,) when practising in N H., purchased between fifty and sixty gallons of it, during some seven or eight years. and used ic in his practice. He has since then ordered it for the Hospital where he was stationed Other physicians have purchased it, and have used it in practice with great success When the proprietor lived in New Hampshire, at Goffstown Centre, for the space of thirty or forty miles around, and in Manchester partic- ulally, the Humor Doctor was we'll known and highly valued for the numerous aad wonderful cures which it effected Though manufactured in large quantities, the supply was frequently exhausted, and purchasers had to wait for more to be made In that region, some very severe cases of srysipelas were treated with it. and Mty were cured. Erysipelas sores or carbuu- cles those ugly, painful ulcers, were entirely removed, wherever this medicine was faithful ly used. So it was with Screfula and Sah Rheum. The Humor Doctor cured them.
 Since the Proprietor's removal to Merose. Mass. his present residence, he has been regu- larly selling it to patients who have applied to him in person, and has been very successful in relieving and curing them. One case of Eryslpelas-of an old man 72 years-is worth mentioning in particular. When he came to the Doctors office he could only wear pair of old rubber ovcrshoes his feet and ankles were so swollen and sore. When he pulled off his socks the scabs came with them, and the raw bleeding feet were frghtiul to behold. Suffice it to say, that less than one dozen bottles of the Humor Doctor (and in few weeks) healed up those feet and ankles, 50 that they were smooth and appar ently sound. The man wore boots without inconvenience. Numerous cases of pimples in the frce have been treated with this medicine. to the entire eradication of them. In Melrose alone, there are more than hundred persons who have used the Humor Doctor, and give it an excellent name In all the towns around it is we'll known and ap- proved.
 For the sake of showing what is thought of it. few testimonials are here inserted

He Is most agreeable speaker, has been train ed in the best school for forensic display long continued association, as professor in Dartmouth college, with men of thought and culture. He is a man of high cultiva- tion, and brings his requirements and comedy presence to tell handsomely upon his Oritorical success His private character is an excellent as his public rec ord is honest.

 A North Carolina correspondent of the Washington Chronicle says that the great est hallucination prevails among the old shareholders as their ability to control the vote of the freedmen. He adds
 What IS required, and that forthwith, is that loyal presses he established at every available point. The colored people today strange as 1t may seem, rely more upon newspapers for information than the white at the South. True, large portion of the piacks cannot read, but bakers dozen cannot be found with one of the number possessing the accomplishment, and know of no sight more interesting than to see a group of these benighted ones listening ea- gerly to catch every word that falls from the lips of some one reading the news of the day to them.
