Skatk&s, Esq—Dear Sir: I take much p.ensure in giving you my experience of the meci cal powers of the Rockbridge Alum Water. Eight years last October, Mrs Carter was attacked with malignant scarlet lever, which terminated in tx tentive ulceration about the left shoulder joint. She wa» placed under the best physicians iuthe Stat*>, and was, by their skill, (so Mr as human agency was concerned,) saved from death. The ulceration, however, continued to spread, until it extended across the entire chest to the riiiht axilla, producing great pain, making it necessary to keep l.er constantly under the influence of opiates. Every remedy was tried calculated to produce relief.— Sea bathing was resorted to for three or four sum mers. The White Sulphur, the Red sulphur and other «prin»s were visited tor two consecutive sea sons without material benefit Last summer I de termined lo give the Rockbridge Alum a fair trial. Mrs Carter reached the springs about the 20th July, and remained about eight weeks, and has continued to use the water since tn-r return home. She now I joks as well as I ever saw her. All the ulcers have healed but one, which gives no pain. The use ot opiates has been dispensed with, and her relief is to be ascribed to the use of the Rockbridge Alum Water only. 1 will give you the history of another case, with which 1 am familiar. It is the daughter of R. T. Lacy, Etq (tor many years our representative in the Legislature.) she was a healthy, well grown and sprightly child, and w»s attacked lastCnristmas two years, when nearly ten years of age, with in damation of the eyes, which resisted all the recie dies whi"h could be used. The physicians iu the surrounding country were called in. .She wag then placed under the care of Dr. Chas. Bell Gibson, of the city of Richmond, Va, for six months, who, by his skill and attention aimo-t entirely relieved her; but the intlamation i turned, and he advised a trip to the Rockbridge Alum Springs When 1 saw her, I was seriously appr henuve the would lose htr eye sight. It was my privilege to taka charge of her (in company with her mother) to the Springs, she remained at the Springs about eight weess; lor four weeks there w as no perceptible improvement. Sae then improved n.pidly.is now enjoying good health, and her eyesaie greatly improved and al most entirely restoi ed. .-he has also continued the use of the water tince i-aving the springs. B°foie visiting tne springs, her general health had been greatly impaired by the retntdies used to relieve her eyes. Mrs Lucy's health was bad when she reached the springs, very feeble, scarcely able to move about with any comfort, was rendered much more unwell by the trip. Before she left the sprinae, her health was entirely restored, and con tinues bet er than it has been lor twenty years 1 have seen its beneficial effects in many other cases, especially in cutaneous diseases. The water is a powerful alterative, acts on the glandular system generally, and posses-ts considerable tonic proper ties These cases fully establish the reputation of the water. Very respectfully, your ob't serv't, JOHN G. CARTER, D M. Dear Sir: I send you above, at your request, the statement of Dr Carte', and his account, so far as it relates to Mrs Lacy an J my daughter, is correct.— Dr Carter is a Baptist minister, has been, for many years, a successful phjsician, of high character,.and resides in six miles of me.

I had also tbe .est medi cal attendai.ee—one of my physicians frankly told me it was no use for me to be paying hiin for advice as he could do me no good, i gave up almoit in des pair and thought my disease certainly incurable. At this juncture i beard ot Hampton's Vege table Tincture. 1 reiused to give it a trial, al though persuaded Dy my friends, until my ton pur chased a ew bottles and requested me to try it- After taking it a few liptes, it bad a most happy effect upon me—my confidence increased, and alter taking three bottles, my Dyspepsia, or disease of the stomach, was nearly if not entire.y cured.
