This is to certijy, that I have put in one of
Howd’s Patent Cast Iron Direct Action Water
Wheels, in the place of a Reaction Wheel; that
the Direct Wheel does not flood the-tail race as
much by three inches ns the reaction did, arid
that I can grind seven bushels with the direct
action wheel an hour, and drive two run of
stones,' where I could not grind four bushels in
the .same time with the reaction and drive brie

in putting in S.’ B. Howd’s cast iron direct ac
tion Water Wheel, both in the State of New

decided opinion that with 8 feet head or under,
rightly put in, it will do more business with the
same water than any-other-water wheel which
lihave yet.’had any experience in, and in-refer
ence to back water, is second best to none that
I Have yet tried.- In reference to guarding a

it is very dasy to be kept in repair.

one Of Mr. Howd’s direct water wheela for the
space of one year. It is a five feet wheel, . and
I have had a re-action in the someplace—lhave

Mr. Howd’s will do more business With less wa

in back water. T, have had from .5 to 6 feet

half the water as we%sEd to do with the under

Many have devoted years to unsuccessful ex

facturing; teeth of materials similar to the porce
lain ware, but generally they have an opaque
white appearance, by which they are easily dis
tinguished from the human teeth.
After long and tedious experiments, the sub

materials entirely Incorruptible, and perfectly in
Imitation of human ■ teeth. They have a semi

In cases where absorption of the areolar pro

improved plan of erecting Bridges over streams

expense to erect a Bridge on this plan, arid when
built would not be liable to be injured by a fresh

the water should rise so high as to run over the

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCEBN.
CjOMETIMEthe lastof August, A. D. 1837,
551 a small protuberance appeared on my face
near my left eye: 1 thbught.it was what is called
a blind boil, and treated it accordingly. Several
days alter it first appeared, it was examined by 1
a physician'of this place, who‘pronounced it 4l
CANCER, and directed me to apply a lunar
caustic, which I did lor two or three weeks, but
found no help from it. I also applied other rem
edies to no better effect, after which I was 1 di
rected to use caustic potash, but all to-no pur
pose. The last proposed remedy Created a sore
about the size oi a quarter of a dollar, and a co
pious discharge. If ..wa» again examined bv a
medical doctor, and thought by him to .be suffi
ciently burned by the caustic, and he advised me
to applv some healing salve. I did so, and'&it
healed/ the cancer was more visible than at first ;
and by the time the sore wap healed, or nearly
so—for it never was fully healed from its first
appearance, until healed in the way hereafter
stated. At this time therewas
on the surface, about the size of a five penny bit,
with a shooting pain and a crawling sensation in
Having been acquainted for several years with
Mr. Asa F.Smlth, generally known in this neigh
borhood, by the name ol the Indian Doctor, aiid
having seen him during the time I was applying
the remedies above stated, I asked his opinion.
-He-saidydie feared ttily would not effect a cure;
that h’e had cured many, and was perfectly ac
quainted with them in all their stages and yan
ety. After I had found those remedies which I
had'been using, ineffectual,-I applied to the said
Mn Smith; he applied a plaster, with a small
quantity of ponder; much larger than thetumor,
which was exceedingly, painful. He gave me
a phial of the pbwder, Und the composition of
the plastef, with directions how to use them.—
It will be observed that the„plaster was only for
the purpose of sticking and keeping the air From
the jvound—the powder was intended to have
effect on the cancer—and ah effect it "had, m-
lt burnedslmilar to red hot iron, -i he
application of which\l continued for about 38
days, during which .titpe my sufferings were ex
treme ."beyond description. Indeed, it now ap
me'hdwT boremp r under :it
bo long. In the course of this application, there
were several pieces of this cancer outt but
after taking out a,piece in one place ana tnen
going to another for the same purpose? t?y vbe
time I had succeeded in taking that'out* another
one appeared in the place whence the former
one had beert removed, until I had taken out
three pieces in the same place in succession, and
nlore still appeared in the same place. By the
professed to be skilled in the cure of cancers:
this was sometime in December 1837, to the best
of my recollection. .1 called oh the doctor that
, evening. The next day he called to seg me, and
gave-me medicine, which.was used inwardly.—
He would not allow any outward application,
excepting dry lint —and to my astonishment,
there was no further discharge from the wound,
more than barely saturated the small quantity of
lint, which was only sufficient to cover it. After
I had taken his prescription for three or four
days, I found by the sensation in the other side
of my face, that it was as highly charged with
the cancer as was the side I had made the ap-
E Mention of the powder to, aforesaid, and that it
ad aiso.got dgwn over my under jaw into the
glands of my herk: I also found n cancerous
sensation on the inside of my right arm. between
the wrist and elbow, and another in the fleshy
part ot my right thigh, and also in other parts of
my body. The sensation was so Weil known by
me, having experienced so much of it, I could
not have been mistaken. After taking Dr. Ehr
man's prescription two or three days, I observed
a change in all those affected parts i above na
med, and more particularly in the wound which
was opened by the former application, which
now began to heat. I think it was not more than
two or three weeks from the time Dr..Ehrman
made the first-application until my' face was
healed'completely over, and has continued so
ever sihee, and appears to be sound.
From the foregoing facts I feel it a duty Towe
to Dr. Ehrrhan and to the public at large, to
cei tify that he folly removed the cancer
FRpM MY system, by his prescription, and th&t
he not only curecFme of the cancer, but has par
tially removed a disposition which I had long
felt of a dyspeptic affection, and also some unn
ary obstruction, so that I feel more whole and
sound in body than I have forseveral years past.

who visited me about this time, advised me to
call on Dr. Frederick Ehrman, and ! did so, on
the principle that a drowning man would catch
at straws; or, in other, words, I was willing to
try any thing to get relief from the miseries I
was laboring under, and contrary to my expec

general relief—my pains removed, and my flesh
and health increased by Dr* Ehrman’s treat

a bad cold, which brought on, a severe cough.—
For about two months it Increased more and
more, though I tried every means to get relief.
I then employed one of out most eminent physi
cians, but'stlll got worse and worse: at length I
was confined to bed, and every movement of my
body brought on the cough so severely that I
thought 1 must die. I cannot describe,the -Suf
ferings I felt from the pain in my breast, nor the
quantity of putrid, matter I discharged when
coughing—it appeared- that my, whole" inside
would be spit out. I was reduced to-a skeleton.
About.this time-someof my friends came to see
me nnd related some cures of similar complaints
performed by Dr.' Ehrman. and strongly urged
me" to give him atrial. I had heard of them
before.-and conaented,-withoul any hope howev.

me from using your pills before I did. I can

THE unparalleled reputation which Peters
Pills have acquired as a Medical Restorative,
is the most uriquestlphable proof that can be gi
ven of their immense importance to the anllcted,
in almost every class of diseases; The number
of letter? received from patients recovering thro
their means is,really prodigious, and the com
plaints which they have cured are almost as va
ried as they are numerous. But still there are
some In which they are, more especially benefi
cial than in others: and among those may be
named the too often fatal complaints of the sto
mach and bowels, stich a? Cholic, Flatulence,
and for which they are not only a
certajn_but animmediatecure.
It is well known that from thedlsarrangement
of the stomach and bbwels, arise nine tenths of
all the maladies of adult and declining life s that
this Is the fduhdatibh of Flatulency, Spasmodic
Pains, Indigestion, Loss of Apetite &c., and that
those in their turn give birth, to Dropsy, Liver
Cdmplant, Consumption, and habitual lowness of
spirits: therefore Peters* Pills, being the very
best medicine which ha? ever been discovered
for the incipient diseases of the intestines, are
necessarily the surest preventives of those dread
fair and'also general-disorders,- which-embitter
mature life, and drag so many millions to un
tl hffpcaUing’tiiUs Dr. Peters arrogates nothing
to himself that has not been-concededJby_the
public. He is no needy quack or unknown spec
ulator, Who comes before the world as his own 1
herald and witness, but is placed in a responsi-i
bility of situation by the patronage which he has I
enioyed for years, and which is increasing to. an ,
extent unprecedeiited ln the annals of
that makes him careflll to arrest nothing which |
is not borne mit by the most infalible proof, and
hence he does not fear to be put to the test in any
thing which he has promised respecting his Pills.
Dr. Veters is most happy to be able to state,
on the authority of a great number of'regular
physicians, that wherever his Vegetable Pills
have beer, introduced, they have nlmost-super
ceded the adoption of mercurial experiments,
for their peculiar tacnityin sweeteningthe blood,
and stimulating it to expel nil noxious juices, and
in giving strength.and tone to the nerves, pre

has fully proved the fact that Peters’ Vegetable
Pills are the only true Vegetable Pills which will
stand the test of analyzation; hence the proprie
tor. would most earnestly urge them to the notice
of those who have been in the habit of using, as
cathartics or aperients, the destructive and irri
tating quack pills so'generally-advertised; and
which are at best but slow consumers of the vital
functions, and . murderous agents, even to the
most'hale. It is ‘true,most of'themi produce a
'purgative effect, and sometimes transient relief)
but in most cases thgjf injure the digestive or
gans, and an habitual resort to them must ter
minate dyspepsia.
It is true that cathartic and aperient medicines
are often required, hut the nicest discrimination
should always be observed .n the selection; and,
if this be donc, nothing injurious can result from
'.heir use. c
To-produce this much desired result,Dr .Pe
ters has made it his study for several years and
feels proud to say he has succeeded atlength far
beyond his expectations. 'The object of his pills
is to snpercede the necessity df-a frequent re
course to injurious purgatives; and to offer a me
dicine safe, certain, and plehsnnt in its operation.
