DYSENTERY CORDIAL.
For Dirrhaea, Dysentery, Cholera Morbus,

From Hon, 11. W. Hilliard, late U. S. Minister to
Belgium.
Dr. Woodruff ; My dear sir—A few days since
I received the Cordial which you were good
enough to send me. My friend, Col. Seaborn
.Tones, would have part of it ; the remainder I
have laid aside for use wheal may need it.
On the other page I have added a statement of
my appreciation of it as a medicine,
“Having used the Cordial of Dr. M. Woodruff,
I do not hesitate to pronounce it a most valuable
medicine. Indeed, for such affections of the
bowels as we sometimes suffer with in the South,
I know nothing at ail equal to it. •
HENRY W. HILLIARD.
To Dr. M. Woodriff—-
Dear Sir : My little son was attacked with Dys
entery, about six weeks since, (violently.) I
called in the best medical aid, without arresting
the disease. Wi\en I bad nearly lost ail hope of his
recovery,! accidentally came across your Cordial.
After reading the certificates of gentlemen whom
I saw recommending it. 1 concluded to try a bot
tle, and began to give it by directions, one morn
ing after breakfast, and by noon, to all appear
ance, the disease was entirely cured. It has re
turned on him twice s see, but has been stopped
as readily as before.

Dr. Woodruff ; Dear sir—Your Dysentery Cor
dial is in high repute in this section. It has cured
one of my neighbors of a Dysentery oflong stand
ing, in a very short time —a remarkable cure. A
trial of it, 1 think, will convince the most skepti
cal ofits value, Respectfully,
M.iricn county, Ga. Aug. 5, 1845.
A Hopeless Case cured !
Dr. Woodruff: Dear sir—A remarkable cure
having been effected in the case of one of my
children by the use of your valuable Dysentery
Cordial, I feel it but justice to you, that 1 should
-rive you a statement of the case for publication.
Aly child was attacked early in the year with dis
ordered bowels, which continued gradually to
get worse, until it was reduced to a perfect skele
ton, and by the family was given up as a hopeless
case. Every remedy in common use had been
resorted to, but without any real benefit. This
was its condition when we commenced your
Cordial, Its benefit was immediate and perma
nent —it improved rapidly, and now enjoys good
health. Your Cordial, without doubt, has saved
its life. .Let all try it that need such a remedy,
and they will not repent it. Respectfully,

BRAND RE TIF S PILLS.
*TifIS medicine is ackiMHvlcdgfdtobcoßnif
J- most valuable ever discovered as a purifier
of the blood and fluids. It is superior to Sarsa
parilla, whether sudorific or alterative, and stands
infinitely before all the preparations and combi
nations of Mercury. Its purgative properties ar
alone of incalculable value, for these pills may
be taken daily for any period, and, instead ©f
weakening, by the cathartic effect, they add
strength by taking away the cause of weakness. —
They have none of the miserable effects of that
deadly specific, Mercury. The teeth are not in
jured—the bones and limbs are not paralyzed—
no; but, instead of these distressing symptoms,
new life and consequent animation is evident in
every movement of the bocy.
These Pills, for colds, coughs, tighness of the
chest, rheumatism in the head or limbs, will b
found superior to any thing imagined of the pow
ers of medicine; and biliious affections, dispepsia,
and in all diseases peculiar to women, should they
be resorted to at once. These Brandreth Pills
will be found deserving all praise, fold by
