will probably be completed in six months.
'J'tie Weekly Times wiil also contain a series
of letters Iron: Europe and the East, by one
of the ablest and most Popular writers in the
United States, —embracing Notes of Incident,
Adventure and Observation in Europe, Egypt,
Arabia and the Holy Land, and forming one of
the most interesting series of Foreign Sketches
ever published in this Country.
Resides these continuous articles, prepared
expressly for the New Series of the Weekly
Times, it will contain, every week, a great
amount of Original Correspondence, Domestic

A UI'MAM LIFE SAVED!
DOWAOIAC, Mich, March 11, 1855.
J. A. RHODES, Esq : Dear Sir—As I took
your medicine to sell on consignment, "no
fure no pay," I take pleasure ir. stating its ef
fects as reiiorted to me by three brothers who
five iu this place, and their testimony is a fair
specimen ot all I have received:
W. S. Cox el iff told me—'l had taken nine
bottles of Christie's Ague Balsam, und contin
ually run down while using it until my lungs
and liver were Congested to that degree that
blood discharged from my mouth aud bowels,
so that all thought it impossible for me to live
through another chill. The doctors too did
all they could tor me, bnt though J must die.
Nothing did any good until 1 got Rhodes' FV
veraud an.l Ague Cure, which at once reliev
ed nie of the distress and naiirea at my stom
ach and pain in my head ami liowels, and pro
duced a permanent cure in a short time."
H. M . CON KLIX says: "■! had been taking me
dicine ot as good a doctor as we have in our
county, and taken any quantity of quinine
and specifics without any good result, from
25 August Jo litli December. But seeing how
niceiv it operated on mv brother, I got a hot
tb-of RHODES'FEVER AND AGUE CURE,
wtiicti effected a permanent cure by using two
thirds of a bottle."
S. M. CONK LIS was not here, but both the
other brothers say his case was the same as 11.
M's. I sold the medicine to both the sum*
day, and the cure was as speedy from the san-c
small quantity, und I might so specify. Yours
with respect. A. IiUNTINGToN.
The above speaks for itself. Good proof ss
it is, it is of no better tenor than the vast t um
ber of like certificates I hare already publish
ed, and the still greater amount that is contin
ually pouring in to me.
One thing more. Last year I had occasion
to Gautiou the Public in these words:—
"1 notice one firm whe hart taken one of my gen
eral circulars, substituted the name oj their nos
trum for my medicine, and then with brazen itnpu
dence end their pamphlet with the exclamation,
1 1.et the proprietor of any other medicine say a*
much if he darts.' " ftc.
Now I take pleasure in saying that the Cau
tion referred to the same "Dr. Christie's Ague
Balsam" that is mentioned in the above cer
tificste.
There are several other industrious peopls
who are applying to their poisonous trash all
that I publish about my Fever and Ague Cure,
or Antidote to Malaria, except the certificates
of Cures, and tlie Certificate of the celebrated
Chemist. Dr. James. R. Chilton of N. Y., in
favor of its perfectly HARMLESS CHARAC
TER, which is attached to every bottle. These
will always serve to distinguish my medicine
from imitations.
