The exalted reputation of its contributors, the practical and invariably pure and healthy character of all its articles, the cire which is isknn that not even one offensive word shall appear in its columns, and the superiority of its Talcs and Sketches, have gained for the NEW-YORK LEDGER a position that no literary paper bus ever before reached. —Ass A CORA RITCHIE of Richmond, Va., and Col.

WOOD : Dear Sir :—ln the litter part of the year 1812, while attending *tbe State and National Law of tho State of New York, my hair, from a cause unknown to me, commenced falling off very rapidly, so that >u the short space of six months, the whole upper part of my scalp was almost entirely bere/t of its covering, and much of the rem lining portion upon the side and back part of ruy head shortly after became gray, so thu you will not be surprised when 1 tell you that upon my return to the Suite of Indiana, my more casual acqeu.mances were not so much at a loss to dis cover the cause of tho change in my appearance, as my more intimate acquaintances were to recog h'za me at all. I at once made application to the most skillful physicians in the country, but receiving no as surance from them that uiy hair coul.i again be ro stoiod, I was forced to become reconciled to my I ite, until, fortunately, in tho latter part of the year 1857, your Restorative was recommended to me by a druggist, as l>eing tha most reliable Hair liivstorative in uso. I tried one bottle, and found to my great satisfaction that it was producing' the desired effect. Since that time, I have used seven dollars' woith of your Restorative, and as a resu<t, have a rich ed it of very soft black L air, which no money can buy. As a mark of tr.y gratitude for your labor and skill in the production of so wonderful an article, I have recommended its uso to many of my friends and acquaintances, who,' I am happy to inform you, are Using it with like effect.

It j* believed that such a remedy is wanted by thorn who snttev from Strumous complaints, and that one which will accomplish their cure mutt prove of immense service to this large class of our aiil eted fellow-citizens. How completely this compound will uo it lias been proven by exper irr. *.! on many of the worst cases to be found el' the following complaints: KcitornuA ANI> ScaoFri.ot'S Covtv.wvr, EwrrttiM" AO Bui.'pnvß Dre PARRS, UI.OZIIS, PIMPtKS, R BOTCHES, Tt'MOBS, S.AI.T IvIWM, tte&ss H BvPttttts A*j-Br?Mi.:nc Ar- FFICTKRFS, MBKCUWUI Diaxxse, DaopaiT, NUP- A tors. osTic Dorf/nntevx, £}- PUT-SIA ivn IviiiGiwriox, KUVSIKBI.AR, Rose on Sr. A who it's T'lar, and itidcM the whole class of. complaints mixing from IMPCRJVV ar ran I5;.oon. This compound will ho found R went pro moter of health, when taken in th? spring, to expel the foul humors which fester in the bliKid at that season of the year. By the time ly expulsion of ihem many rankling disorders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can, by th? aid of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous SOTC3, through which the system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by ari alterative medicine. Cleanse out tlie yi tinted blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is ob structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it wlr never it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even where no particular disorder b felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing the bloody Keep the blood healthy, and ell is well; but with this pabulum of life disordered, there car. be no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Sarsapavslla has, and deserves much, the reputation, of accomplishing these enos. But the world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be conc-entrr.ted extracts o: it, contain but little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else. During late years the public have been mis led by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sin sepurilla for one dollar. Most of these have ia>ta frauds upon the sick, for they ret otuy contain little, if any, Baisapn rilla, but often no curative properties whatev er. Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly despised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of clloquy wbgch rests upon it. And we think we have ground for believing it has virtues whifch are irresistible by the ordinary inn of the diseases it is intend ed to cure. In ordci to secure their complete eradication from the system, the remedy should be judiciously taken according to directions on the bolt it?. ntEPARiri) BY DR. .7. C. AVER & CO. I.OWEbI,, MASS.
