THE WORLD'S 1XLATIOX !
THAT THE PILES IS DISARMED OF ITS TERRORS,
BY SB. IMAM'S YECETABLE ELECTUARY.
The great sensation irhich was created among tfie
Mtdical Faculty, and throughout the citrtiized rtorld,
by the announcement of Dr. Uptarn's Electuary, for
the Cure of Piles, (a Disease that resisted all former
Medical treatment,) has settled down into a thorough
confidence, that it is a positive and speedy aire in all
cases of the Piles, either Bleeding or Blind, External
or Internal, and also for all diseases of the Stomach,
and Bonels, such as
SEVERE AND HABITUAL COSTIVENESS,
DYSPEPSIA. LIVER COMPLAINT, INFLAM
MATION OFTHE SPLEEN, KIDNEYS, BLAD
DER, BOWELS, AND SPINE ; ULCERATION
OF THE INTESTINES ; FLOW OF BLOOD
TO. THE HEAD, c ; AND FOR THE RE
LIEF OF MARRIED WOMEN.
The Symptoms, Cause and Nature of the Piles,
together with its conjunctive discuses, will be found
in the pamphlets, to be had of all agents and deal

Messrs Wyalt und Ketcham : Gentlemen Un
demanding 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 effects. Indeed, I began to consider
my case hopeless. But, about the first of September
last, I was prevailed upon by a friend to make a tri
al of the above named medicine ; I took his advice,
and rejoice to say that I am not only relieved, but as
I believe, perfectly cured. I most earnestly recom
mend it to all who may have the misfortune to be af
flicted with that annoying and dangerous disease.
Very respectfully,
Your ob'i servant,

Messrs. Wtitt Ac Ketcham : Gents For 30
years I have been afflicted with Piles, general Debil
ity, and Inflammation, causing tumors and prolapsus
of the bowels, and which had 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 mercies of
Providence, and the use of Dr. Upham's Electuary,
though an old maw, 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 it to my afflicted fellow creatures.
It helped me beyond the expectations of all who
knew my case, and I can only say to others, that it
is in my opi.iion, the best medicine in the world for
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 cae.
Yours, with the almost expression of thankfulness,

OF THE LUNGS !
A. F. nARRlSOt, 1ST Greenwich-Street,

SOLE AMERICAN AGENT.
THE success which has attended HASTINGS'
NAPHTHA SYRUP, in Decline, Consump
tion, Spitting of Blood, Asthma $-c, since its introduc
tion into the United Slates, fully eq tals what it met
with in Europe. Its use has been adopted iu nearly
all our large hospitals ; and the most eminent of our
physicians have wriiten highly favorable notices of it,
"aud patronise it extensively iu their private practice.
Indeed, they have almost abandoned all other reme
dies for the usual diseases of the lungs; and a single
case has not yet been reported in which it has failed
to give satisfaction and relief. 11 tne reader is at all
inclined to Consumption, or affected with any of the
diseases which are likely to produce it, let him lose
no time in procuring a bottle of HASTINGS' NA
PHTHA SYRUP, and oue or two doses will satisfy
him of its surprising virtues, and that a short contin
uance of iU use will restore him to heallfi ; for it not
only cures in a brief period, but gives relief, and a
warrant of its excellence, and mastery over the dis
ease, in a lew minutes alter it is received into tne
system. Hence Sir James (Jan;e, the Court physi
cian, remarks of it, that " in consequence of the bn&k
aud unmistakeable energy of its operations, no
medicine has so much the confidence of patients as
Hastings' Compound Syrup of Naphiha."
Ill COXliiriiiatioil of the above, we annex
the foil wing certificates, selected from a large num
ber now iu the office of the American asem.
Silver Lake, Oct. Kth, J8-17.

I will just say that the bottle sent for by Jacob M.

he anticipated, or that is recommended, and five dol
lars of the above is for him and the other five for my
wife and a young man of this neighborhood Mer
r'rthew's case as een a bad oue. Much has been
spent for physicians aud medicine, aud nothing has
given him hope until he took the Bottle of " Hast

his case be beneficial to you, I will draw it up and
forward it. When you receive this, Please drep me
