HAMILTON?DkaU SlK: Although the number and respectability of the testimonials of which you are alTeady in possession, as to the efficacy of your Medicine, ''THE GKEAT VA. REMEDY," in the discuses which it 18 designed to cure, are sufficient, in my opinion, to establish its reputation, and secure for it such patronage aa will adequately reward you for the discovery of so ines timable a Medicine?yet the great benefit which 1 have derived from its use, and the salutary effects which 1 have witnessed from its employment ill the cones of several friends, to whom 1 had recommended it, constrain nie to contribute, lor such use as you may think proper to make of it, this formal acknowledgment of its sanitary virtues. My own case was Dyspepsia of long duration, and very aggravated in its character, manifested by an almost total destruction of the digestive functions, great debility, ner vousness, emaciate, and impaired appetite, with pain, and a burning senmaon in tlie left side of the chest, palpi tation of the heart, vertigo and congestion in the head, and many other symptoms indicative of the worst type of the disease, by the use of three or four bottles of your pre paration, been entirely relieved. The cases of my friends, in which your Medicine was taken, were iDyspepsia, Chro nic Headache, and Sore Throat, in all of which it proved efficacious, after the trial of a vast number of oilier reme dies without benefit. Your medicine is as pleasant to the taste as a cordial, and in my experience corrects all de rangement of tlie stomach, restores the wasted or enfeebled energies of the digestive organs, and imparts strength and reammntion to the whole system.

In my judgment they are not excelled by any cotempcrniieous Reports, in learning, ability, or general utility and interest. The cases decided are discussed with great care, i\nd expounded with uncom mon force. I scarcely know of any volumes which I deem of more importance or value for a Professional Library. JOSEPH STORY. Cawbrioc*, January 26,1846. Gentlemen: Your letter of the 2Uh has been received, In which you ask my opinion as to the value of the Eng lish Exchequer Reports, from Price downwards to this time, to an American Lawyer, and as to the expediency of reprinting them in this country. Of the hij.'h value of these Report*, both on the Pleas and Equity sides of the Court, I have not the least doubt?the decisions of this Court for the last fifteen or twenty years, both at Equity and in Common Law, being entitle! to e<|ual respect with any others In England. 1 should think an American Lawyer's Library essentially incomplete without them.

Dear Sir: 1 wish to express to you Ilia gratification I derived on receiving the July number of the Merchants' Magazine and Couiuierulnl Review, flow viewing your portrait in the lieginning, and from reading your address to your fribiiiin at tbi; end of it. H hen wo fuel under ob ligations to those w)io have contributed to our inforuia tiou and amusement, we are naturally desirous to possths all the knowledge of theiu, of their apfMnaaiMie, of tin. lea tures of their coqutenuuee, aud of the clwraeUtr and hab it* of their uiind, which we can acquire. You have placed your numerous readers (at leant you have me, if I may not speak for tliein) under tliohe obligations; And th? number of your valuable work now before me, iu t>onie degree, satisfies the desire to which I have alluded. 1 have l* come quite familiar with the Mogastiue and Review, aud bave no hesitation in e*pressiug my humble opinion that H in eminently entitled to the public regard and nupporl. It collects and urranges, in good order, a large amount of valuable statistical and other information, highly useful not only to the merchant, but to the states man, to the cultivator of the earth, to the manufacturer, to the mariner, in short, to all classes of the business aud reading community. Entertaining this opinion, I iini glad that it has been, and hope that it uufty continue to be, lllierally patronized. Offering you cordial assurances of my esteem and re gard, I am truly your friend and obedient servant, Freeman Hunt, esq. II. CLAY. Extract qf a Utter from Hon. Millard Fill-mart. "1 hare read it (Merchants' Maguxiue) with a good deal of attention, and have no hesitation in saying that I think it one of the most valuable periodicals that was ever published. To the merchant it seems quite indis pensable, and to tin: statesman aud man of general inl'or mation almost equally desirable. It is a grand repository of useful facts and information, which can be found no whero so well digested and so accessible as in these num bers. I only regret that I do not own the whole work.* Litter from, the, Hon. Thomas H. Denton. Wabuinctok Cirr, April 20, 1849. Mr. Freeman Hunt.?Sir: I owe yon many thanks for the opportunities 1 have-had to read the Merchants' Mag azine, and have found it in reality to be a magazine, and that well replenished, of all the useful matter which the title would imply, and presented with a fullness and clearness which delights while it Instructs. It is, in fact, a merchant^ magazine in the large acceptation of the term?merchants who go between nations, whose large operations bring many departments of knowledge, and a view of the state of the world, into daily requisition. But it is not the great merchant only, but the one of more modest, but, nevertheless, of most useful operations?(he merchant of tlio interior also?who will find this magazine to abound with the information the pursuit of his busi ness and the elevation of the mercantile character re quires. Nor is its utility at all confined to merchants, hut extends to the legislator and diplomatist, and to all who are charged with managing the affairs of the nation. For myself, I have found it most useful to me in my" senato rial labors, and have been in the habit for many years of carefully consulting it. Very respectfully, sir, your obedient servant, THOMAS H. BENTON. Letter from Hon. Wm. II. Seward. My Dear Sir: Ilavo the goodness to place my name en your list of subscribers for the Merchants' Magazine. I regard it as an Invaluable work for the use of all who would understand not merely commercial operations in this extending country, but the fiscal and commercial questions involved in the administration of the govern ment. I am, with great respect, your humble servant. Freeman Hunt, esq. W ILLIAM II. SEWARD.

The water, taken Immediately from the celebrated "Cold Spring," Is unsurpassed as regards coldness and purity, by any in the United State*. 'lhe liouse, recently erected at a cost of about seven thousand dollars, has been fitted np In a neat and elegant style, at considerable ex tra oxpense, and Is sufficiently capacious to accommodate seventy-five patients.
