Shall-we Vote as we fought.

.During‘ all the terrible years of the war, the
heart Of every lover of the Union was most
anxious asto how the struggle with armed
traitors would result. Our noble boys in
blue, left 'their quiet happy homes, parents,
wives, children and ‘rushed to ' the front.
Wives and mothers and sisters plied the-
needle, collected money and material for the
stricken ones in hospitals and the wounded
on the blocdy field. And when nothing else
scald. avail the great God Of battles was im-
plored fer blessings on our 'cause and on the
efferjts'r Offthe brave boys who were contend-
ing-withirebel' bullets in the strife of battle.

1am millions of these brave men were
marslialled‘under the old starry flag; three
hundred-thousand of them fell by the way-
side,,'brOken with sickness and maimed. and
scarred with wounds. Three hundred-thou-
sand more lie buried beneath the sod, and
their honored ‘graves' now plead more elo-
quentlythan human tongue can do, that the
prihéiples for which they died shall not be
abandoned,- now that armed resistance to
governmental authority has ceased. And
yet what do we see here _in Connecticut to-
day. ' A political party; which Opposed the
war and during all the bloody struggle had
not . one word of encouragement for our
brave boys, discouraged enlistments, tried to
prevent reinforcements being sent forward
when. the Union ranks weredecimated ; re-
fused them the freeman's prerogative of vot.
ing whenever and wherever they could; re-
joicedbver Union defeats, rejoiced when our
poor boys were driven back in death and
rent, and mourned when the stars and stripes
waved in triumph over their southern allies.
A party recognizing Tom Seymour, Bill Ea-
ton, Isaac Toucey and James F. Babcock as
its leaders ; which new has the shameless ef-
frontery to ask our brave boys and the
friends of thesebrave boys to come up now
that the war is over and note their Ldisloyal
ticket. Boys in blue, and you who bid these
boys God-speed, will you, can you do it ?
Or will you vote as you wrought, as you
fought and as you prayed during the dark
years of the war ? ' If the latter, then will
you spurn all copperhead overtures and can-
didates and vote for and work for the suc-
cess of the Union Republican nominees, one
and all from this day to election.

vGen. Ferryts Appointments.
The continuance of the session of Congress
will prevent the fulfilment of Gen. Ferry’s
appointments. As Connecticut has no dele-
gation in the House of Representatives, and
Mr. Dixon no longer acts with the Republi-
can party in the Senate, it is manifest that
Gen. Ferry cannot leave Washington till
Congress'adjourns. It is expected, however:
that the State Committee will secure able
gentlemen to fill his place.
~<Q>>
WThe “Grand—dI's-union Rally" adver-
tised by our democratic friends, for Wednes-
day night, with Hon. Joe. I". Babcock and
Gen. Frank Blair, as craters, entirelyjnstifies
our opponents in a feeling of unusual hilarity
and the imbibing of extra potations of cop-
per whiskey. Asvfor Gen. Blair, it wouldoc-
ocsion no surprise in any quarter, at any posi-
tion he‘ might assume or any opinion he
might entertain. But in contrasting the past
record and personal character of Mr. Babcock
with his present lamentable associations, we
cenfess to a feeling of pity for any man, who
could have fallen so low as now to be admir-
ed and; praised by his life long enemies and
who after so many years of persevering la-
b’o‘rs ,ag'ainét disloyalty is now found rejoic-
ing the heart of every rebel in’ the land. We
know, audijhe knows, the manly stand he
took in' the presence of Andrew Johnson one
. yeiir ago,7when he assured the Presidentthat
if it wereexpected of him, that to 'hold his
little federal office, he must join in with his
life long political enemies, his resignation
~ was respectfully tendered. But here he is, and
oil the copperheads of Norwalk are jubilant
thereof .’ -We would not add one pang to
that self-condemns tion and consciousness of
dishonor that we know Mr. Babcock must
feel, and we kindly commend him to a care-
ful‘reading of‘hls old editorials in the Palla-
diumvasl’being', with his own honest reflec-
tions,'aj punishment sufficient even for so sad
and disgraceful a fall.

ny, of Bridgeport, Howard Barnum, foreman,
with-,lion'orary members and invited guests

Stamps on Voters’ Tickets.
C. II. Northrop, Esq., of Brookficld, being
in doubt as to the legal requirement of an In-
tcrnal Revenue stamp upon a votcr’.u cur-titl-
cate, addressed a letter of inquiry to the dc-
partment and received the following rcply
from the Deputy Commissioner, which tit-li-
nitely settles it, that no stamp l8 required :—
D ‘T OFFICE or INTERNAL REVENUE,

SIR: Your letter of the 26th met. 13 as
follows : “The registered electors of this
state of any year preceding the present, when
removmg from a town where registered, and
desiring to be registered in the town to which
they remove, are required to produce a cer-
tificate from the town clerk of the town from
which they remove certifying what year,
month and day of the Inonth the persons
were first registered in the town from which
they remove, as electors of this State."
You inquire what stampsshould be afiix-
ed to such certificates; and In reply I have
to say that in my opinion they are exempt
from stamp tax by virtue of the pl‘OViSlODS
of Section 190 Of the Act in force.

WOur Fenian friends had_an enthusiast-
ic rally at Lynes‘ Hall, onThursday evening
last at which the Brotherhood and large num-
bers of interested auditors were present.
There is in every American community a.
sincere sympathy for and admiration of the
devotion and patriotic yearning for the free-
dom of Ireland exhibited by her trans-Atlan-
tic sons. The sincerityof this sentimeutmade
the over zealous ezhibtions ct partizansbip
here amusing, to say the least. For men,
who, as party leaders, have always endeav-
ored to lead the Irish voters of this country
to sustain free trade and oppose a tariff, (just
what England of all things most desires, and
for which she annually sends thousands of
pounds of British manufactures gold to this
country to influence our elections)—for such
men to come forward and occupy front seats
at a Fenian meeting, is a rather “cheeky"
performance to say the least. But good oft-
times comes out of evil and when one of the
speakers was justly commending the valor
of Irish troops in the into war for the Union
and a storm of merited applause broke forth
from the audience,- the "figure heads" who
had never applauded Union Victories before
had to come down with the crowd and were ac
tually forced tojoz'n the encore .’ It was more
than they bargained for, but they swallowed
the physio heroically, and we will not for
ture them by any further allusion to their
strange and anomalous position as presiding
dignitaries at an honest Fenian meeting.

 

 

THE SMALL Pox—Since our last issue,
tut one new case of this disease has occur-
red in town, which was immediately remov-
ed by the authorities to the building on the
town farm, constructed expressly for that
purpose. The victim, we understand, was a,
relative Of one of the persons who first had
the disease. The authorities have made all
needed sanitary arrangements, and it is
hoped there will be no more cases. If any
should occur, however, they will be prompt-
ly removed to the hospital building. The
disease has appeared in but two places, and
there is no cause for alarm,v and apparently
none is felt by our citizens.

Bread and butter swinging
around.

We notice in the columns of our State pa—
pers and by flaming posters in town, that the
Connecticut prince of political acrobats, Jas.
F. Babcock, is now following the example
of his illustrious master, President Johnson,
and is swinging around the circle of our
State making speeches for English and con-
verts for Hawley, all for “bread and butter"
and English. currency. If our friends, the
democrats, who proverbially '_have strong
stomachs, can swallow James F. Babcock
without a wincing, we shall cheerfully own
that we have underrated their ability in that
particular, and agree that they are_ indeed
copper-lined.

We trust that Babcock and Ed Cleveland
may be'kept on the course until the day of
election, being convinced that they are doing
good service for our cause, as it is well-
known both by republicans and democrats
that they deserted the nobfe ‘cause of their
country to save their Offices, and nothing is
more true than that. all good men despise
traitors. .> ' *

To EDITOR 0F NORWALR GAZETTE :— A
great mass meeting of the Fenian Brother-
hood was held on Thursday evening, 14th
fast, in Norwalk Hall, for the purpose of
raising funds to assist the revolution in Ire-
land. The large and splendid ' Hall was
densely filled, and the greatest enthusiasm
and determination to aid the-“men in the
gap" wele evidently manifested to all. His
Honor, Mayor Weed, was called to the chair:
and in coming forward amid the greatest up-
plause, introduced Dr. L. Reynolds, of
Brooklyn, N, Y. The venerable gentleman
delivered a most eloquent address on the po-
sition of affairs in Ireland, and the duty of
Americans and Irishmen to promptly and
generously come forward with their contri-
butions. His Honor next introduced ll. J.
Keating of New York City. The young gen-
tleman delivered a very eloquent and lurcl-
ble discourse on the necessity of immediate
action to encourage and support the l‘Cthlll-
tionists in Ireland, and finished with a most
earnest appeal to all for money and muni-
tions of war. His Honor, the Mayor, then
moved that a vote of thanks be tendered to
the speakers which was ununimousl y carried-
A vole of thanks was also given amid the
greatest applause to the Mayor, for the honor
which he has shown the Fenian c-iusc in
presiding as Chairman of the meeting. A
large contribution was then taken up by the
Centre, Mr. J. D. Shea, Secretary M r. J.
Green, and Treasurer M. W. White. The
vast audience then retired, evidently deter-
mined to exert their utmost to forward the
cause. ALPIIA.

WAnother grand ‘Fcnian Rally is to he
held at the same place, on Thursday evening
of next week. Full particulars in our next

 

 

issue.

Our Candidate for Congiess.
Seldom liavc'our opponents been so dis-
pleased as at the nomination of P. T. Bar-
num for Congress. Being the great “moral"
party they are sorely exercised because in
his youth he was exhibiting wonderful mon-
strositics instead of dcmurcly studying his
catechism and devoting himself to divinity us
were the very Reverend Fernando W o. c,
John Morrfsey and lower than all, J amcs
Brooks-all now Congressional leaders of the
immaculate democracy.
Mr. Barnum’s profession chosen in early
life, is not one that all would covet, and yet
all must admit that as a showman he made a

'good one, and always gave more for the mon-

ey than any rival. The same may claim-
ed for him in all his relations of pr ate citi-
zen. Always enterprising, always zealous
'in matters of public improvement, he has no
doubt done more than any one other man
towards promoting the growth and prosper-
ity of our county, especially of the city of
Bridgeport, where his ‘individual enterprise
has increased the grand list of taxable prop-
erty of this county many millions of dollars.
His efi‘orts and his means,,bestowed with a
libéral hand, have been expended for the
erection of school houses and churches and
for the promotion of good morals and sobri-
ety among the people. These are facts none
can gainsay or deny and during the war no
man's record stands out more conspicuously
as the friend of the soldiers of his country.

”q.-.
Our Candidate for Senator.
In Mr. Wm. C. Street, Republican candi--

date for Senator for this the 12th District,

made such through the partiality Of friends in
other towns, rather than through suggestion
from Norwalk,we have a man entirelyfamil-

 

 

~iar with the details of legislation and with

the business needs and material wants of his
District. A practiCal, self-made . man, his
highest aim has always been to aid and be-.
friend the people and the cause'ot the labor-
ing man. As a member of our savings
,Bank Loaning Board, we ' can testify to his
repeated and constant efforts to overcome all
narrow prejudices" and to bestow its funds
whenever and wherever a workingman so-
licited funds with which to build him a house
or secure a ,home. , Stories are circulated,
where it is thought Such stOries will damage
him that he will oppose a charter for a- rail-
road from Ridgefield through New Canaan
to tide-water. So far from this being true,
we know that he has beenfor years in favor of
a general railroad law, such as is in force in
New York and other states, allowing as
many roads to be built as there can be found
capital willing to construct. He is in favor
of every enterprise that promises work for the
laborer, prosperity to the state and - good to
all and the laboring masses so understand the
issue and will vote accordingly.

EXPBESS CONTROVERSY.

Interesting Correspondence between the Pres-
ident of the American Company and one. of
its Stockholders .' . 1
OFFICE OF THE AMERICAN Exrnnss Co.

Nos. 122 & 144 Broadway, N. Y.,
February 15,1867. _

DEAR SIR :—The Managers of the Ameri-
can Express Company have deemed It pru-
dent and for the best interests of the stock-
holders tO omit the usual quarterly (livuicnd
payable on this date, so that the entire earn-
ings of the Company may be used in. carry-
ing on to a successful result the competition
'with an organization formed to black-mail
this and other established Express Compa-
nies. Neither self-respect, nor the perma.
nent financial advantage of the stockholders
will permit any compromise with the already
staggering company, known as “The Mer-
chants’ Union Express.” .

In making this explanation of the reasons
for passing the dividend, it is due to those
who hold the stock of this company as an in-
vestment to caution them against parting
with it at present market prices which are
much below its real value. It is evrdcnt that
competing Express Companies cannot long
continue to operate upon the same lines, and
it is clearly the policy for this company to
expend every dollar of its current and surplus
earnings, and if to ensure complete and last-
ing victory, rather to abandon *a struggle
which can have but one result. The Circu-
lars of the managers of the “Merchants’ Un-
ion,” sent out as apologies for fresh assess-
ments, and the advertisements published to
bolster up their sinking fortunes. contain pos-
itive proofs of their falsity. .The extrava-
gance of their expenditur s, the recklesaness
of their management, th esperate expedi-
cuts to whichthey resort 0 secure business
done at a positive loss,'and-to deprive other
companies of the services of their ageiils and
employees, by trebling the salaries paid them
all attest the fact that they are losing faith in
an enterprise undertaken to be abandoned
whenever its projectors could command their
price. . .

Under these circumstances, the Managers
of this Company are so confident of ultimate
success, that they refuse to part with their
stock; and it will be gratifying to them to
know that their partners, who have. shared
hitherto in in the profits of a paying business
also decline to sacrifice their stock, which
cannot fail again to use their influence to
promote and protect‘the interests of the Com—
pany. Respectful]; Yours,

HENR WELLS, President.
JAMEs C. FARGO, Assistant Treasurer.
To NORRIS WINsLow, Watertown. N. Y.‘

 

. MERCHANTS"BANK,
- WATERTOWN, Feb. 25, 1897.
Henry Wells, Esq., President Am. 1%. Co..-

DEAR SIR—I am in receipt,of your circu-
lar hearing date, February 15, 1867, saying
“The Managers of the American Express
Company” have deemed it prudent and for
the best interests of the stockholders to omit
the usual quaterly dividend payable on this
date, so that the entire earnings of the com-
pany may-be used in .carrying on to a succes-
ful result the competition with .an organiza-
tionformed to “black-mail this and other es-
tablished Express corn panles,” doc, &c. .

I must confess I had much rather have
received notice that you were able to declare
your usual quarterly dividend, thanthat you
had foolishly spent all the earnings of the
Company for the past quarter in carrying on
a war (waged by you) against the “Mercliants’
Union Express Company,”and that you pro-
pose to continue to carry on the strife until
you expend every dollar of the current and
surplus earnings, and, if neccessary, to assess
its stockholders.

My stock in the American Express Com.-
pany has already fallen in market from $1.30
to less than sixty cents on the dollar, and I
am requested to still hold it untill the officers
have spent "every dollar” trying to do what
they must see will result in 41“: destruction
of the Company. The generous support
given from all quarters to the Merchants Un-
ion Express Company, is conclusive evidence
that the American peopie, have no sympathy
with a Company that publicly any they will
destroy legitimate competition, m-“dz‘e in the
aliens, t.” -

If such a course will cause any stock to
again become as valuable as ever, it will be
contrary to all past experiences in the man--
agement of corporations. .

On the contrary if you Would divide
among the stockholders, thc vastlsums paid
for publishing articles signed “PADLOCR,”
“STOCKHOLDE " and other larger and still
more foolish ex enditures, and 2ch the same
attention to the legitimate business of the
Company, my stock would much sooner‘
command a respectable pi ice in market, than
it will under the present trianagcment. Your
obedient servant. NORRIS WIN SLO W.

will sing his soul-stirring songs in ‘his own

inimitable style at the .

21) M. E. CHURCH,NORWALK,

Tuesday Evening, April 20.

, It will be remembered that Mr Phillips
has sung to the delight of large audiences in
the Academies of Music in New-York, Phil-
adelphia, Boston, Brooklyn, Baltimore; Cin-
cinnati, Chicago. St. Louis, Washington, and
many other places, and has, therefore, well
earned the untional reputation which he has.
Come and hear his heart-thrilling solos one
night only. The proceeds will be used in
furnishing a Parsonage about to be erected
by the above mentioned church.

" 'wnatis said or his Singing:

At the Hall Of Representatives in Washington, Mr.
Phillips sang “Ydur Mission." after which Presi-
dent Lincoln seut up to Hon. William H. Seward,
Chairman, the following writen request: "Near the
close let us have ‘Ycur Mission‘ repeated by Mr.
Phillips. Don't say I called for it.—A. LINCOLN.”

Mozart Hallivas crowded last night to ll-‘flr the
Election Returns, and several spirited speeches
were made, happily interspersed by the thrilling
prtriotlc song (1 I Mr. Phillips.— Cinclnafl Gazelle.

Crosby’s Opera House was crowded last evening
on the occasion of the anniversaay of the United
States Christian Commission. several songs were
finely rendered by Mr). Phillip Phillipsg, and raptur-
ousl y applauded. Chicago Tribune.

Mr. Phillip's Concert at Brainard’s Hall was at-
tended bya large audience, who manifested their
delight by frequent and hearty applause. No one
who heard Mr. Phillips sing, “If! were a Voice,"
and, “Your Mission," can never forget him. They
have been tlle joy of thousands—Cleveland Herald.

PHILIP Pmnrrs Rev. William Baxter. author of
“Pea Ridge," etc.,sends us the fellowlng; Those
who have heard the sweet singer will have a life-
long reccollection of him. for he always sings him-
self into the heart. His power is marvelous ; wheth-
er in the presence of the highest dignitaries of the
nation at the conference, prayer-meeting, or Sab-
bathschool, he charms alike. and rouses patriotism
or devotion at will. »

PIIILII- PanIr-s, the Singing Pilgrim, has become
a universal favorite wherever he is heard. He sings

He is the John B. Gough in song.—Sunday-School
Teacher,

We have never seen such a large assembly of .per-
sons at any concert or lecture in this village since
our residence here, as were gathered to hear Mr.
Phillips-and from the expressions of favor that we
heard that evening and from what we have heard
since, we believe that all who were present were
highly delighted, and regard it so far as the enter-
tainment was concerned a great success.

-Mr, Phillips’ voice is one of great compass and
melody—and he has the power, which few possess,
of making his audience feel the sentiments of the
hymu‘s he sln‘gs. “The sailor boy,“ “Twenty years
ago,“ “Homeat last,” and "Your mission“ were
sung withgreat effect, lite audience giving breatht.
less attention, and manifesting regret when his las-

 

song wasgiven.—Portcheeter Moniofr, March 6,67.

Dr. Schenck on Dyspepsia.
SYMPTOMS CAUSES AND REMEDY

Symptoms of Dyspepsia—A sense ‘of fullness,
lightness, and weight in the stomach, tOgether with
gfiatulency, acidity, sour, offensive bclchlno of wind.
7 water-brash and vomiting, and a great deiil of what
a person calls an all-gone feeling at the pit of the
stomach ;'frequently there‘ is alsoa palpitation ,of
the heart, which physicians mistake for heart .dis-
ease, and when the stomach is‘ in this condition it is
coated with a»niucus.or slime. The rough, fibrous
portion of the stomach, similar to what we see in
tripe, is what throws out the gastric juice, and when
the stomach gets a thick coat of slime on It, it pres
vents the gastric juice from flowing, and digestion
ceases. Schcnck‘s seaweed tonic dissolves this mu-
‘cus o'r slime, and restores the stomach to its natural
condition. _

Schenck‘s Mandrake Pills are also required to carry.
off this morbid matter. Two-thirds of the cases of
Consumption are caused from this diseased state of
the stomach; the liver becoming torpid ceases to
throw out bile, and in a short time the whole system
is deran ed. The mucus membrane of the bron-
chial tu es sympathizes with the other orrrans, and
before the aticrjt is aware of it, he or she has Bron-
chial or pu monary Consumption.

Schenck’s Pulmonic Syrup cannot not freely through
the blood when the system is in this locked-up con-
dition, without the aid of the Sea Weed Tome and
Mandrake Pills. The Liver has all the venous blood
to strain, and when it gets in a morbid condition
blood and bile run through the system mixed. and
the whole body becomes so low, and the blood so
thick it can hardly run through the veins. In a ma-
jorit of cases hcmorrharrcs occur from this thick
con ition of the blood. .l‘hc Mandrake Pills act Oil
the Liver similar to calomel, or they do what that
does-it unlocks the gall bladders, starts the bile,
and the blood begins to circulate naturally through
the veins, and the hemorrhages cease. If when cr-
sons are attacked with hemorrhage, they would rst
take a good purgative, something that would act on
the liver, ,they would soon_ be relieved from
bleeding from the lungs, and it is thc cnly way, for
astringents are only temporary, and irritate the bron-
chial tubes, and la the gratin work for consumption

Old fogylsm is not quite dead. People are still to
be found who think that health is promoted by de-
pletion! Was there ever such false logicl Nature
is the grand antagonist of disease, and the depletors
propose to prostrate Nature, in order one might sup
pose, to give the enemy a double chance at the life
of the patient ! The true practice is to invigorate
the vital powers as to render them an overmatch
for the elements of disease. This can be done with
HOSTETTERS’ STOMACH BITTERS. Ofall veg-
etable tonics they are the most powerful and the
most genial. At this season, when even the strong-
est orgsnlzationfare liable to be affected by the al-
ternations of stringent cold and malarious moisture,
this inestimable protective medicine is especially
needed. Persons predisposed to biliousncss, dys
pepsin, constipation, intermittent fever, or any of
he complaints which cold weather superinduccs or
agravates, should take it regularly throughout the
Winter and Spring months. It is absolutely pure
and harmless.

Piles.

It is very easy to say of this. or any other Medicine
“It is the very best Remedy known." It is not al-
ways so easy to prove it. It is, however, exceed-
ingly gratifying to the proprietor of this Medi-
cine. that, while he declares to the public that this
is amost wonderful and effective Specific for Ho.
mors, as stated above, be has abundant proof at
hand to sustain him.

For sixteen years,the Hinton Docs-on has been
manufactured and sold, and every year has increased
the value ofits reputation, and the amount of its
sales. In New Hampshire, where it was origina-
ted, no remedy for Rumors is so highly prized. An
eminent physician (now an army surgeon,) when
practicing in N. H. purchased between tiny and six-
ty gallons of it, during some seven or eight years,
and used it in his'practice. He has since then or,
dered it for the Hospital where he was stationed.
Other physicians have purchased it, and have used
it in practice with perfect success. When the pro-
prietor lived in New Hampshire, at Gofi'stowu Cen-
tre, for the space of thirty or forty miles around,
and in Manchester particularly, the Humor Doctor
was well known and highly valued for the numer—
ous and wonderful cures which it reflected. Though
manufactured in large quantities, the supply was
frequently exhausted, and purchasers had to wait
for more to be made. In that region some very se-
vere cases, of Eryrlpelaa were treated with it, and
they were cured. Erysipelas sores, or Carbuncles
those ugly painful ulcers, were entirely removed,
wherever this medicine was faithfully used. So it
was with Scrofhla and Salt Rheum. The Humor
Doctor cured them. 4' ' ”

Since the Propfletor‘s removal to Melrore. Mass,
his present residence, he has been regularly selling
it to patients who have applied to him in person,
and has been very successful in rellovlng and curing
them. One case of Erysipelas-of an all). man 19
years—is worth mentioning in particular. When he
came to the Doctor’s office he could only wear a pair
of old rubber overshoes his feet and ankles were so
swollen and sore. When he pnlledofi‘ his seeks the
scabs came with them, and the raw bleeding feet
were frightful to behold. Suffice it to say, that loss
than one dozen bottles of the Humor Doctor (and in
a few weeks) healed up those feet and ankles, so
that they were smooth and apparently sound. The
man wore boots without inconvenience. Numerous
crises of pimples in the face have been treated with
this medicine, to the entire eradication of them. In
Melrose alone, there are more than a hundred per:
sons who have used the Humor Doctor, and give it
an excellent name. In all the towns around ft is
well knot’vn and approved.

For the sake of showing what is thought of it, a
few testimonials are here inserted :— ' ‘

MILTON GALE. ESQ, Boston.

I hereby certify thatI was sorely sfilfcled with
boils for two years , developing themselves upon my
my body. The sufi'erfugs which I endured from them
are indescribable. Suffice it to say that 1 faith-
fully tricd several of the most popular humor
remedies, but without removing the afiliction. At
length, by the earnest request of an intimate friend
I was induced to try Dr. J. W. Poland‘s Humor
Doctor antfnm very happy to attest that all my boils
were removed, and my health was restored by using
Dr. Poland’s aforesaid medicine.

A. C. WALLACE, ESQ. Manchester, N. a.

Dr. J. W. Poland, Dear Sir—I very cheerfully
give my testimony in favor of your Humor Doctor
as an excellent remedy for Humors. My numerous
acquaintances in Manchester know how severely I
was afflicted with bells, and they know how perfect-
ly good my health is at present. Your Humor Doc-
tor cured me. Please refer to me for particulars in
my case. A. C. WALLACE.

MRS. WHEELER, Stoneham, Mus,

I very confidently and earnestly recommend Dr.
J. W. Poland‘s Humor Doctor as an excellent reme-
dy for Rumors, having been wonderfully benefitted
'by it myself. My own case was a very severe and
obstinate one. For more than two years the skin
upon the inside of both my hands.‘and even down on
the wrist, was constantly cracked and broken up. so
that I was unable to use my hands in any kind of wet
work, and was obliged to wear gloves in sewing to
avoid getting blood upon my work. The Humor
which so afilicted me was probably a combination
of Eryslpelas and Salt Rheum. My general health
was quite poor. Soon after I began to use the Ru-
mor Doctor, I could perceive signs of healing I
continued to take the medicine till I was finally
cured. My hands are now perfectly free from Hu-
mors, and to‘ all appearances my whole system is
clear of it, and has been for several months. 1 used
eight bottles before I felt safe to give it entirely up,
but they cared me. HARRIET WHEELER.
Stoneham, Mass., July 5th, 1858.

 

MRS. PORTER, Dover, N. H.
Dover, N . IL, July 22, 1855.

Dr. Poland—I received your letter enquiring as to
the effects of your medicine on sea sickness. I am
happy to say that I think it is "the medicine“ for
that dreadful sickness. I tried various prescriptions
hilt found none that settled the stomach and cleared
the head like the Humor Doctor. I felt as though I
could hardly wait to get ashore, to cntreat you to in-
troduce it intoship chandler-y stores,lhat it. may find
its way to those who aufibr upon the mighty deep
from sea sickness. if captains who take their fami-
lies with them. or carry passengers. should try it
for once they would never be willing to make a voy-
age without it.
I have used it in my family since its introduction
to the public ; for billions habits. headache, and hu-
mors about my children, nnd have alwal s to and it a
sure Cafe-
! am not fond ofhaving my name appuiir in pub:
lie, and would not consent to it on any account but
to relieve the suffering ; but, if the foregoing will be
of any service to you or the public, you I an make us a
of it.
