Messrs Wyalt und Kelcham : Gentlemen Un
derstanding that you are the General Agents for the
sale of Dr. Upham's Vegetable Electuary, for the
cure of the Piles, I have deemed it my duty to vol
unteer a recommendation in behalf of that invaluable
medicine. I have been afflicted for many years with
the Piles, and have tried various remedies, but with
no beneficial ellects. Indeed, I liegan to consider
my cae hojfcless But, about the first oi September
last. I was prevailed upon by a friend to make a tri
al of the above named medicine ; I look his advice,
and rejoice to say that 1 am not only relieved, but as
I believe, perfectly lured. I most earnestly recom
mend it lo all who may have the misfortune to be af
flicted with that annoying and dangerous disease.
Very respecifully ,
Your ob't servant,

Mkssrs. Wtatt & Ketcham : Gents For 30
years 1 have been afflicted with Piles, general Debil
ity, and Inflammation, causing tumors and prolapsus
of the bowels, and which bad resisted all the medical
treatment Dr. Chapman and others could give. The
last three years of that time my sufferings defy de
scription. I was confined to bed unable to help my
self, and at last given up by my physicians and friends
in despair of ever gaining my health ;" in fact, for a
time before I commenced using Dr. Upham's Elec
tuary, I was entirely speechless, and my burial clothes
were made. But under the beneficent metcies of
Providence, and the use of Dr. Upham's Electuary,
though an old mast, I have the pleasure of stating
the fact to the public that my health is now good,
and I hope to live many years, if it is God's will, to
make known the virtues of Dr. Upham s Electuary,
and to recommend if to my afflicted fellow creatures.
It helped me beyond the expectations of all who
kpew my case, and I can only say to others, that it
is in my opinion, the best medicine in the world tor
Piles, or any other disease of the bowels ; and if they
will use it according to the directions, I will myself
warrant a cure, in every case. . ,
Yours, with tho utmost expression of thankfulness,

BALTIMORE PIANO FORTE
Very Important Invention.
IT HAS long been a question among teachers and
amateurs of music, as to the most suitable touch for
a Piano Forte. Some at this time contend for a
light touch, while others, with equal ability, advocate
the heavy. This question is now permanently set
tled. WISEk& BROTHER have invented a con
trivance by which the same Instrument may be in
stantly set to an v required touch, by tne turning a
single screw, varying, if necessary, three hundred
and sixty.five differences. 1 be advantages or this
are evident, both (o teachers and amateurs, as lessens
may be practised on the heavy, and eihibited on the
lighter touch, to suit exactly any physical capacity
which is agreeable to fact and progressive lessons.
The contrivance is simple, and may be applied to
any common Piano. We invite the most critical
investigation. A Patent is about to be taken lor the
improvement. J. J. WISE & BROTHER.

offers for sale his present convenient Residence
