VY ithout being disposed or deeming it necessary to zn into the particulars of the case, I ran say that the a-tonishing results that have been produced by the use of that medicine on a member of my own family, and under my own observation and superintendence, alter the skill ol the best phy-sicinns had been ex hausted and the usual remedies had failed, fully jus tify me in recommending its use to all who may be suffering from that dreadful n.alady. 1 do not mean to say that it is adapted to all con stitutions, or that it will aflord the same relief in all cases; for, of course. 1 can know-nothing about that but from w hat 1 have seen of the effects, f would not hesitate to use it, in any arid every case of Scro fula, with persons for whom I telt an interest, or over whoru 1 cnuid exercise any influence or con i Irol.

Kkyskk'S PECTORAL Syrcp — We have tried this medicine for a severe cold, and ran truly say we have never found any remedy so pleasant and effectual, ll is an expectorant, yet does no* sicken the stomach ; audit prevents co.stiveness. It is very highly re commended by physicians and others who have tried ; it, as a speedy and effectual cure for Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness, Whooping Cough, Croup, Quinsy, and j numerous other complaints of the Bronchial Organs - and Lungs. We can sateiy recommend it as an ex- I cellent remedy. Dr. Hootland's German Bitters, prepared by Dr. C'. M. Jackson, are justly reckoned among our most val uable medicines. In cases ol dyspep-ia it acts like i magic, strengthening the stone of the stomach, stim ulating the dige-tive powers, and giving ruddy health ito the cheek and brightness to the eye. There are thousands in this community who can testify to their virtue, and thousands w-ill hereafter add their testi mony. See advertismeut. Notice.
