Messrs Wyaft 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 afilicled for many years with
the Piles, and have tried various remedies, but with
no beneficial eilects. Indeed, I began lo consider
my case hopeless. But, about the fust 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 an
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't servant,

Messrs. Wtatt & Ketcham : Gents For 30
years I have been afilicled with Piles, general Debil
ity, and Innammalion, 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. 1 was confined to bed unable to help my
self, and at last given up by my physiciavs and friends
in devpair of ever gaining my health; in fact, for a
lime before I commenced using Dr. Upham s Elec
tuary, I was entirely speechless, and my burial clothes
were made. But under the beneficent meicies of
Providence, and the use of Dr. Upham's Electuary,
thcugh an old man, 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. UphanTs Electuary,
and to recommend it to my afflicted fellow creatures,
It helped me beyond the expectations of all who
knew my case, and I csn only say to others, that it
is in mv ooinion. trie best medicine in the world lor
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.

HASTINGS'
Compound Syrup of Naphtlia.
NOT ONLY A POSITIVE BUT A WARRANTED CURE FOR CON
SUMPTION AND ALL OTHER DISEASES
OF THE LUNCS!
OT, A. F. HARRISON, 14T Greenwich-Street,
New York.
SOLE AMERICAN AGENT.
THE success which has attended HASTINGS'
NAPHTHA 'SYRUP, in Decline, Consump
tion, Spitting of Bleod, Asthma fyc, since its introduc
tion into the United States, 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 wriilen highly favorable notices of it,
and patronise it extensively in their private practice.
Indeed, they have almost abandoned all olher 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. If the 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 one or two doses will satisfy
him of its surprising virtues, and that a short contin
uance of its use will restore him to health ; 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 few minutes after it is received iuto the
system. Hence Sir James Clarke, the Court physi
cian, remarks of it, that " in consequence of the brfck
aod unmistaheable energy of its operations, no
medicine has po much the confidence of patients as
Hastings' Compound Syrup of Naphtha."
In confirmation of the above, we annex
the follwing certificates, selected from a large num
ber now in the office of the American agent.
Silver Lake, Oct. 8th, 1847.
Dr. Harrison Sir : I herein send you ten dollars,
and expect that you will send twelve bottles of u Has-,
tings' Compound Syrup of Naphlhaf." I wish it
sent by Livingsteu & Fargo's Express, via Buffalo
-and Detroit, to Ann Arbor to James Hill, care of
Edward Clark.
Yours, c. JAM ES W. HILL
I will just say that the bottle sent for by Jacob M.
Merritbew of this place, proved to him every thing
he anticipated, or that is recommended, aud five dol
lars of the above is for him and the other five for my
wife aud a young man of this neighborhood- Mer
rithew's case as cen a bad one, Much has been
spent for physicians and medicine, and not lung has
given him hope uutil he took the Bottle of " Hast
ing Naphtha Syrup." Would a brief statement of
his case be beneficial to you, I will draw it up and
forward it. When you receive this, Please drep me
