cordance with the terms of the contract mada at the

now made will at once fully secure te the Senate of

have ever looked with aolicitoua and reapectfal r?
**III. The Proceedinge and Debatea in the Ho?*e

confidently cherished, that the "United States

COLLETON BITTKRS
THESE Bitters are purely a vegetable com
pound, and are offered to the public from
principle of benevolence, under the fullest convic
tion that they will be found a safe and sovereign
?emedy for Vi/nprpsia. They have been trium
phantly tested! not only by some of the moat re
ipectable families and phyaician* in the State of
South Carolina, who have furnished ample testi
mony as to their decided excellence, but also by the
proprietor, who, for ten years, suffered all the gloom
incident to that stubborn and distressing disease.
They possess the peculiar excellence, denied to
most other Bitters, of not proving injurious by con
tinued use. They contain not a tingle deleterioua
ingredient, and, as seen from the direction* which
accompany each bottle, may be given with entire
aafety to an infant in the month.
With pleaiure, and for the benefit of mankind, I
send you a certificate relative to the Colleton Bit
tars.
In the year 1838, when the cholera was in
Charleston, S. C., I waa compelled to send a servant
to the city. On hi* return, he waaauddenly attack
ed with mo*t violent pain in hi* bowel*, ao much so
as to cause apprehension that he would expire in a
short time, if medical aid could not be procured. I
immediately resorted to the Colleton Bitter*, by gf?
ing a wine glass full at a dose. Inthe course of a
very short tims it acted aa an emetic, and throwing
him at the same time into a profuae perspiration. I
then continued to give it in small doees, from two to
three tea spoonsful I, which resulted in a happy re
covery. Since then I have been using it constantly
in my family, in cases of cholera morbus, cholera
infantum, disrrhota and general debility, ???I#
every instance found it highly beneficial. Some
constitutions, however, require much larger doses
Jn9. jenkin?.
Bhfflim, S. C.. 1846.
It is with feelings of gratitude as well as pleamro
that I take this method of giving my testimony of
the great estimation which I entertain for your iu
valuable compound. In justice not only to the me
dicine, but for the benefit of others who may be aot
fering from the same malady, Dyspepsia, with which
I wa* for years afflicted, I feel it a duty incumbent
on me to state that I am now reetorad to perfect
health. When I commcnced taking the Colleton
Bitters it waa ae a last resort. My debility from in
digestion was so great that a cure was looked upon
as almost hopeless. After taking it regularly and
perseverin&ly for some time, my strength and di
geetive powers were entirely restored. I have never
taken a single dose of any other medicine for mom
than five years past. I can now eat the richest food
without sny unpleasant feelings whatever. I have
also used Colleton Bittera freely in my Auntly for
ehokra infantum, choleramorbvt, general debility,
and aa a tonic after fever, with great suceees. As a
family medicine I deem it invaluable, and do con
scientiously recommend it.
