The above ease was placed under your care and treatment, and in the space of six or seven weeks von made a final cure. The above speeified ease has since been under my notice, but no sign of Dropsy has since been visible. 1 would therefore direct nil who have the Dropsy to give you a trial, for I think your medicine the greatest ever discovered for Dropsy. Yours respectfully, R. F. SEAY, M. D.

She was en tirely helpless, and dependent entirely upon charity for a support for herself and family. No one thought that she could ever be relieved. She is now, to all a- pearanee, entirely well and able to work and 6uppo. herself and family. WESLEY W. THOMAS, JOSUA MOORE, JOHN T. McCOY, J. P. Greensboro, Ga., Jan. 30,1860.
