SEA CAPTAIN CURED
RHEU NJ ATISM

LEXINGTON, Mass, June %, 1875.
PROF. F.ALPHONSE-HILLER:
DEAR SIR:-For the allevation of human suffer-
ing feel it my duty well as pleasure to certify to
the following facts in my own case:
The past spring was sore afflicted with Sciatic
Rheumatism, suffering night after night and all night,
without the least CESSATION the most excruciating
pains ever knew. My doctor who practiced in my
family for thirty years. to my entire satsfac-
tion and In whom still have the utmost confidence
said that ''medicine would do me no good-he could
not help me- time probably would, and in or
eight weeks it might leave me; in the meantime I
must grin and bear it," But was not disposed to
do and in my desperation caught at the first arti-
Gle, which under the name of Quack or Patent Medi-
cine, or any other remedy, promised reliet 1t hap
pened that this was the
Diamond Rheumatic Cure,
obtained at No. 3S Hanover street, Boston. The
statements accompanying directions seemed reason
able and determined to give it fair trial. I did
so at the same time being without faith in its ELL
cacy. followed the directions. and the results
that on using the third bottle was sensible that it
was acting powerfully and favorably, and before US
ing the fourth bottle my pain had passed away, and
have occasion to grin with joy) that no longer
have to bear them.
Yours respectfully,
VIM. d. PHELPS.
Mr.. Phelps is gentleman well and fayorably
known in this community, and for the past 40 years
has been recognized by our shipping merchants
of the most successful captains sailing from this
port. This testimony is genuine and speaks more
than volumes could express in favor of the great
merits of the
DIAMOND
II III e u MATIC CUT e.
This medicine is prepared bv careful, experienced
and conscientious physician, in obedience to the de-
sire of numberess friends in the profession, in the
trade and among the people. Every bottle is war
ranted to contain the full strength Of the medicine in
its highest state Of purity and development and is
superior to any medicine ever compounded for this
terrible complaint.
In simple cases sometimes one or two doses suffice.
In the most chronic it is to give way by
the use of four or five bottles. By this efficient and
simple remedy, hundreds ofdolars saved to these
who can least afford to throw it away, surely it is
by the purchase of useless prescriptions.
This medicine is for sale at all Druggists through
out the United States and Canada. If it happens
that your druggist hasnot got it in took ask him to
send for it to any of the Wholesale Druggists in Bos-
ton, or to

Secretary Fish ~a& as leniens as possible
with the Infant public, then struggling
with the ditficultie and dangers of transi.
tion from monar4 by, and, in addition, an

the duty OF this nation to extend such

ment of ths people In Spain. 10 This
end our demands under the protocol made
with Admiral Polo. and the supplementary
negotiations, while presented in dignified
and firm manner. were not prosecuted with
such vigor as they now will be, the neces.
sity OF moral support to Spain Of the young
republic having been removed by the restO-
ration OF monarchy. 1t will be remembered
that some time ago it was announced that
Spain had made settlement with England
for the indemnity demanded arisin. out of
The Eirginlus troubles. After this fact
became public Secretary Fish stated that
the claims Of this government wsuld be
settled in manner similar 10 that entered
into with Great Britain. and a: an early
day the restoration OF monarchy gives this
government its first opportunity to demand
a prompt settlement OF ak OF it's claims in
a mannes which can not be mistaken. Tho
question of sympathy will not enter into
the negotiations. DON Alfonso's govern
ment can not reject the protocol without
ats abrogation. and to abrosate compact
as binding on the nation as this. would be
equivalent to declaration of war. an event
certainly not desired by Spain in view of
the existing divisions Of political opinion OF
Its people. At least the acts OF the late re-
