oi life and hair breadth escapes described, their
plans of operation developed with minutenes, and
their deeds of tyood and atrocity, which spread
terror throughout fhe whole western part of the
Union, portrayed with fidelity. The whole com
prises an intensely exciting episode of the daring,
adventures and skilful manceuvres of an official
Justice. The National Police Gazette is published

Philadelphia, Nov. 22, 1848.
Dr. Keeler—Dear Sir: I take great pleasure in
bearing testimony in behalf .of your valuable med
icine, Sarsaparilla. I have been using it for a pain
in the side of long standing, which was occasioned
by a severe attack of Pleurisy and fever several
years since in the West. For several-months past
my health has been failing, and the pain in the side
so severe at times as to disable me from attending
to my business. I have used many remedies with
scarce any benefit until I commenced using your
sarsaparilla, since which time my health has grad
ually improved, so, much so that at the present time
I enjoy much better health than for years past. I
have used the medicine in my family, and consider
it infinitely superior to any remedy within my know
ledge in chronic affections of the chest and organa
of digestion. lam yours very respectfully

Dr. Keeler —Dear Sir: I feel it my duty to state
to you the good effects your Sarsaparilla has pro
duced on a son of mine, who has been for several
years afflicted with what physicians have termed
Scrofuia. He has been''somewhat hard of hearing
for several years, accompanied with a constant dis
charge from the ears,- and a dull heavy pain across
the fprehead; his general health quite feeble, ap
petite precarious, and bowels irregular. There
were swellings of the neck and at the angle of the
jaws, the complexion of an ashy paleness, and all
the characteristics of wasting health. At your re
