Memphis, Tenn., July, 1830.
The Faculties, for intellectual abilities, moral worth and
presonal acquirements, will compare favorably with the
most distinguished in our country. X be medical faculty con
stitutes an anomaly in this or any other country all of them
are able lecturers and the best of teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geographical position, and
the extent of our population, can have no doubt as to the eli
gibility of our situation for an enterprise of the kind. As to
health, including all seasons of the year, we deny that ant
OTHER CITY HAS MORE.
A common error exists in the minds ef many students rela
tive to the place of studying medicine ; those who intend
practising among the diseases of the West and South should
certainly educate themselves at a School whose Faculty are
practically acquainted with those diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the permanency of this
school, we feel it our duty to state, that the Trustees and
Faculty form a ctcit in action, which augurs well for its fu
ture success ; and that the peculiar internal organisation
which connects them, cannot be interrupted.

The annals of modical science, affording as they do am
ple proof of the power and value of many medicinal agents,
have furnished no examples to compare with tho salutary
effects produced by AVER'S CHERRY PECTORAL."
Tho remargable cures of diseases of the Lungs which have
been realized by its use, attested as they arc by many promi
nent professors and physicians in this and foreign lands,
should encourage the afflicted to persevere with . the strong
assurance that the use of the " CHERRY PECTORAL"
will relieve and ultimately euro them.
We present to the public unsolicited testimonials from
some of the first men in onr country, upon whose judgment
and experience implicit confidence may bo placed. r, ...

Dr. J. C. Aver Dear Sir: Agreeable to tho request of
your agent, We Will cheerfully state what we have known of
the effects of your CHERRY PECTORAL aud they havo
been astonishing indeed. Mrs. Betsey Streetcr had been
afflicted with a severe and relentless cough, vhich reduced
her very low ; so low that little hpo could bo entertained of
her reenrcTy. Nnmeroiid rcnioiliua hud boon tried without
effect, before the Cherry Pectouai... And that hns cured
her. George W atkinson Esq , had to our knowledge been
afflicted with Asthma, for eleven' years, and grown yearly
worse, until tho ChkkuV Poctokai. has now removed tho
disease and he is as free from any of its symptoms ns we arP.
Ths Rev. Murk Dane had been o severely attacked with
tho Bronchitis, ns to disnble him from his duties, and
nothing had afforded him relief until 1 (Mr. Thorning) car
ried him a bottle of your Pkctoraf., which cured him 'at
once, and he now officiates as usual in his place .
These arc three of the cases in which wo have known it
successful, but never to fail. We havo great pleasure in ccr
tifying to these facts; aud are. respected sir. your humblo
servants. REV. DAVID TIIORNING.
