Fistula in Ano cured without the use of the Knife. DR. W. W. MARSHALL, of Macon, Ga., would call the attention of the Public to a number of certificates published, and which he will continue to publish in various papers in the State, of cases of Fistula cured by Jiiin. In the treatment of Fistula, recourse is generally had to the knife, which is always painful and often hazardous and very frequently unsuccessful. More than one half of the cases that have come under his care of late, had been subject to the knife without experiencing the least benefit, but rather made worse. They were perfectly cured by I)r. M. without the use of the knife, or any such operation, without the least danger, and with but little or no pain. In most cases the treatment docs not prevent the ordinary pursuits of business, although the patient is necessarily obliged to be under the immediate care and su pervision of the Doctor from one to four weeks, accordingly as the nature and circumstances ol the case may demand. Ur. M. does not exaggerate, when ho says that the plan of treatment he pursues is obliged to succeed in ninety-nine cases out ot a hundred, if not iu every case of Fistula. Savannah, March 13, 1819. This is to certify that for near fifteen years I was afflicted with that dreadful disease Fistula, and for the last twelve months suffered so much pain, as to incapacitate me almost Irotn atten ding to my business. —During this time I consul ted several physicians both in this city and Charleston, ami was informed by all of them, the disease was incurable save by the knife ol the surgeon. Learning the operation was not only very painful hut dangerous and not always suc cessful, I was very mush opposed to submit toil, and allowed the disease to progress so far as to present the alternative to submit to be operated upon, or die. Al this time I saw Dr. Marshall s card in the Christian Advocate, ami communi cated with him on the subject, and alter being satisfied that lie did cure the disease, I determined to place myself under his treatment, and lie com* , menced to treat my case. I remained there four weeks and returned home nearly well, and I am happy now to say entirely restored. 1 would no doubt have been entirely well much sooner, but kept the place irritated from riding every day on horseback severl miles. Wi li tegard to the Doctor's treatment, it is attended compara tively w ith little pain, 1 was at no time confined to the bed more than one day, and to the house hut a very short time, lie used no knife, (and so far as I could judge) no caustic. I am perfectly satisfied that the Doctor, with his peculiar mode of practice, can cure the mo 4 cases of Fistula with less pain to the patient, in a shorter time and with more certainty than any physician that I have heard of, and would with great confidence, arising (rum experience, advise all who are afflicted with this dreadful malady, irot to hesitate hut at once to place themselves und-r his treatment, and I doubt not their most sanguine expectations wilt be realized. It gives me great pleasure t" sav that in all my intercourse with Dr. Marshall, I found him the perfect gentleman, and an ititelhgent, demoted ebristuin. J AS. E GODFREY. o*Rov. Jas.E.

Three or four Physicians, combining the talent ol the State, were employed for my relief, hilt their united ef forts were unsuccessful. My health grew worse and worse —I became debilitated in body and mind, and my friends entertained fearful appre hensions of my recovery. Casually looking over a paper published in Charles'.on, S. my attention was arrested by a notice nfthe signal professional services of Dr. W. VV. Marshall of effecting a cure in eases of Fistula, &c. The card purported to effect a cure without the use of the knife or caustic. I must sav mv faith was weak, but I resolved to give him a trial. I placed inyseif under ins care and treatment.

Yours, respectfully, CORNELIUS M. SHARP. Irwinton, March 20, 1848. Dear Sir —ln compliance, with your request, T send you a certificate of the cure which you so noon performed on me,of that dreadful disease Fistula, and I think there is no person living, who has greater reason to lie grateful for your kinJness than myself, in being cured of that dreadful disease, which all who saw me, believ ed if not checked, would in a short tune, termin ate my mortal existence. Sometime in the month of April, 1846, a small hard tumor made its appearance near the verge of the arms, which in a short time became soft, and discharged at times a considerable portion of offensive matter, during which time I began to decline, and con tinued to decline until some time in the month of March, 1847, when 1 was confined to my bed, without knowing with what disease 1 was af flicted, until Dr. William Fisher, of Irwinton, was called in,and pronounced the disease to be Fistula in ano. I tlien asked the Doctor if he thought lie could cure me?—he answered he thought he could, but that I must expect to suffer a long time be fore he couid perform a permanent cure. The Doctor then commenced treating the case, and continued to do so for seven weeks, w ithout any material benefit, and then advised me to go to Macon and place myself under your control, as he knew you from character, to be a gentleman of intelligence, piety and experience. I accord ingly went to Macon and placed myself under your control, and in a shorter time than I ex pected, found myself greatly bcuefitted by your treatment. . 1 have now entirely recovered my long lost health, and can say with propriety, that I enjoy better health than I have for five years previous. I often on inquiry hear from you, and rejoice to hear that you are in good health, and as soon as circumstances will permit, 1 will visit Macon, as I can then express my gratitude to you in person. With due respect, 1 am sir, your obliged and humble servant, EDWIN TARPLEY.

To deserve the patronage which Congress has accorded to their reports of its debates, in receiving and making the Globe the official register, they intend to add promptitude to whatever merit has hitherto re commended the work. They will publish a Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de bates as they occur ; and a Congressional Globe periodically, as heretofore, embody ing the re ports of Congress separate from the miscellaneous matter which will accompany them in the daily print. To fill the slice', of the daily newspaper, it is designed to gather the news from all quar ters, and complete the contents by drawing from every source that may he of most interest among literary novelties, and ofgreatestutility in scien tific and practical works on agriculture. For material, the leading journals and periodicals of France and Great Britain, treating of such sub jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan tageously used. Original essays, especially on topics connected with agriculture, will h« obtain ed from the most enlightened and practical men of mir country. The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle of information and amusement in other respec‘s, will h<- under the charge of Francis I*. Blair and Jaxies C. Pickett. The Congressional department and business concerns of the paper will ho under the management ul'Jiiiin G. Rives. The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with the press. In introducing Mr. Pickett us one of the concern, they will he al lowed to say a few words of him. lie is a gen tleman favorable known to the Government, for talent and judgment which distinguished his di plomatic service while connected with the mis sion to Quito ; and mice recently when Charge d'Affaire* to Peru. From his pen mainly the Globe will derive the selections and translations from the French journals and periodicals, the comments on them, and the other literary articles which will he found among its chief attractions. The Globe will he published daily during the session ofCongress, and Weekly the balance of the year,and will undergo distribution in the form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will he the vehicle oftlie miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. The Congressional Globe will embody, as it lias done for the last sixteen years,Congression al pi oeeedings and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President oftlie United States,and the reports oftlie Heads oftlie Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will he published as fast as the proceedings of Con gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four weeks of a session, and two or three num bers of each a week afterwards, until the end of the session. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will he found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to he an inipaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party line. The Editors of the Globe have borne their share iu the*party conflicts of the press They claim an honorable discharge from the vocation. ’Flic Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality which its relation to Congress imposes.
