This statement is similar to the foregoing.
To Mr. NPKinty, one dozen were gent at a ven

dozen on commission, and on the I lth inst. he paid
me for 7 dozen stating, as do the others, that, nn

that lie is persoadcd . to persevere, I am fully persua

Samuel Heckler, Post Master, sells the other pills,
but states, that he finds 4 of these• cqual to ti or 9 of
them—that tho' he had these less than. 4 months,
and the others several years, of these he now sells
about 10 boxes where he has a call for one of the
other sort. Ho mentioned a woman who has du
ring several yeats suffered by the rheumatism, and
though other remedies had been invoked, she
has not found any benefit, save in the use of these
pills.
I would add much general and particular intor
mrliim, but shall defer to a mole convenient oppor
tunity an exposition which must be interesting to all
who are i liable to diseases. To the business in hand,
the reference,l haVe paid the attention it seems
