Extract of a Letter from the Rev. James English,
dated Bengal, to hit friend Dr. F. Bedweli,
in London.
“Dear Sir—Agreeable to your request I
have with difficulty procured and now send
you by the ship Jason, Capt. Robertson, a few
pounds of Foladelphis, or what generally goes
by the name of India Extract,medicine uni
versally esteemed among the people of India,
for the cure of Rheumatism. Was I to infoim
you of the number of people who are daily re
lieved and cured by this valuable remedy, it
would require move paper than I am able to
purchase, and more time than 1 am able to be
sthw. Indeed, the effect of this Medicine is
so immediate, that in Rheumatism you would
in sonic cases suppose it acted almost like a
charm in removing that painful disease. The
difficulty, however in procuring the Extract,
will, for many years, retard its general circu
lation. It being- obtained from a Shrub grow,
ing on the Mountains ofTibet, in the Berman
Empire of India, and held in so much repute
by the Natives, that to part with it, is like part,
ing with their existence.” 'The usual mode of
taking it is in the form of Fills. 1 shall use
all my endeavors to send you a constant sun*
ply- ’
Since .the proprietor has received the above
Medicine, he lias put it up in boxes made for
the purpose, containing sixty pills, with a bill
of directions and a certificate of its being gen
uine, eigned in bis own hand writing—and iii
order to show its vast importance, has thought
proper to submit for public inspection, a few
out of a vast number of Certificates from peo
ple who have been cured by it in Europe and
America.

LETTERS TO MT AOERT IR AMERICA.
Richmond, Virginia, May 2d, 1824.
Dear Sir—It becomes me at this time, to
express to God my gratitude for the means he
had made use of, in restoring my Jong lost
health, by the use of a medicine called Pola
delphis or India Extract. For the last five
years I have been so grievously afflicted with
Rheumatism, that I have at times almost wished
for death to relieve me from my suffering
seeing this medicine advertised, I sent for a
box, and 1 do declare, that since 1 have began
to use it I have never felt a pain, and am sure
that bv continuing to use it for a short time,
1 shall again enjoy my usual health, and be
able to support my family, as heretofore. In
closed, I send you three dollars, for two box
es, which you will please to pack up carefully,
and Mr. Bcmey will bring it safe to me. Y’ou
may tell the world it is my opinion, that the
Potadelphit is the only medicine in the world,
that will cure the Rheumatism. With jov and
gladness. Yours, WM. G. MEY ER.
Extract of a Letter from a respectable Physi
cian in Bedford County, State of Pennsyl
vania, to the d gent of the proprietor.
T here is in my neighbourhood a gentleman
who has been heavily afflicted with Rheuma
tism for many years. He has been using the
Panacea, to the amount of six or seven bottles
without any effect; on seeing the Peladclpliis
advertise^ be got afriend to call at Mr. Desit
rev’s book store, in Market street, for a box
of the pills whieh he is using, and receiving
much benefit from it; and I am of an opinion
that one or two boxes more will produce a ra
dical cure. 1 believe it to be valuable mcdi«
