MARTIN. THE following testimonials of the superior efficacy of the HYGEIAN MEDICINES in the cure of our diseases, speak in a language which must carry conviction to the minds of the most skeptical:— Baows UmviasiTT, Dec. 25, 1813* To Mr. Samuel Young, Agent for the Hygeian Vege table Universal Medicines, for the State of Khode Island. Sia—Gratitude to the Great Preserver of Men com pels me, in compliance with your request, to give a brief statement of a cure, which, I think, I received from the Hygeian Medicines. I give publicity to the same the more cheerfully; because thereby, perhaps, I may be useful to some of my fel!ow-men, who may be afflicted with a similar disease. Mv complaint was called Pulmonary Consumption, and that my real condition may bp explicitly unler stool, 1 state, in connexion with the relation of the cure, some of the symptoms of the disease. In Sep tember, 1812,1 caught a severe cold, which settled on my lungs; 1 was confined to my room about one week, with a fever, attended with ennsi lerable cough; my cough soon abated, and apparently, I was regaining mv health; when, after about three weeks, in the course of the night, having returned the evening be fore in usual health, I found myself bleed'1 ng at the lungs. I had not. to my knowledge, received any hurt or strain, to which the cause of this might be attribut ed. I spat blood, occasionally, for four days; it left me with some fever, pain in the breast, very little ap petite, and withal, very weak A few weeks determined that I was in a decline 1 received the attention of the most skilful Physicians, who often seemed to check the progress of the dis ease, and inspire the hope of a speedy recovery. Hut relapse upon relap>e, and each bringing me lower than the preceding, seemed to baffle all human skill, and warn me of an approachftg dissolution. Thus, months after the first attack, a •• tubercle” [small ul cer] broke in the Inngs, after which I spat blood, one day. I continued to decline tw o months longer, when I obtained the llygeian Medicines I had now been unable to sit up a whole diy, for four months and a half. My feet were cold and lifele-s sleen unsound, cold night sweats constant, tongue furred, pulse in the afternoon from seventy five to one hundred per mi nute, food produced great distress, appetite very poor, pain in the breast directly opposite the heart, attended with some cough, ?tc. fcc. Such was my condition, when I first became acquainted with the llygeian Medicines- 1 commenced taking the medi cines, four pills at a dose, and increased the dose dai ?y, one up to the number of twelve- In about ten days, my appetite became good, and fo >«1 produced no distress, sleep soon became sound and refreshing, and in about forty days the symptoms of the disease had nearly all disappeared I took the medicine sixty days regularly every night, averaging about ten pills at a dose; the greatest num ber taken at any one time was fifteen. After this, I took about four doses a week, until 1 had taken about thirteen hundred pills, when I found myself restored to health. After ! commenced the llygeian, I took no other medicine. One year from the first attack, I w»s able lo resume my studies in cojlege, where I have since remained without any recurrence of the disease Hitherto 1 have been convalescent; and it my strength is not yet fuliy returned, I am certain I have less pains, and am more free from temporary sidw^s, than at any time since my earliest recollec* tisSPlf ours, with respect, HORACE T. LOVE. Dr H. Shei-hord Moat. Dear Sir—l wish to state that my sister, after severe suffering, and employing a medical man three years, was relieved by the use of the Universal Medicines. Her complaint was a violent pain and soreness in her side; indeed, to use her own expression, her is on one sidfehad turned in, actually deformed The pain was a viqfcnt burning p/in, almost intolerable; so aee vete, that she could not ait up for upwards of three years- It was occasioned by over-lacing hers p If, and perhaps, over exertion with it. After using a few, doses of No. 1 and 2, alternately, about eight pills for * dose, the pain decreased, and, by peraeverance in th4HNe, she is now restored to health; and I have no objection to this case being made public for the benefit of others; and am, dear sir, yours truly, H. DYEU. I.owcll, Massnchuretts, Feb. 8, 1834 Injustice to 1 Jr. it., her medical adviser, when he heard her improvement in health, he recommended persevcrence in the use of he medicines. This valuable Medicine, being composed only of vegetable matter, or medicinal herbs, and warranted, on oath, as containing not one particle of mercurial, mineral, or chemical substances, (all of which are un congenial to the nature of man, and therefore deatrue live to the human frame,) is found to be perfectly harmless to the most tender age or weakest frame, un der every stage of human suffering; the most pi -asant and benign in it operation, and at the same time the most searching out the root of every complaint, how ever deep, and of perfoiminga cure, that was ever offered to the world. This wonderful effect, too, is produced by the least trouble to the patients, by merely swallowing a certain number of small pills, and being called ft&w extra times to the purposes of eva cuation, with the least possible sensation of pain, or exhaustion of bodily strength, and without the fear of catching cold, orattention to dress or diet, in any way different from their accustom* d habits. These pills cure all cases, and cannot be taken to excess Experience, which is the touchstone of all human knowledge, has long borne testimony to the fact; and extensive use of them has already verified its truth in this country. These medicines cure hy purging; and yet the weak, the feeble, the infirm, the nervous, the delicate, are in a few days strengthened by their operation, because they clear the body of it* ba l humours, and invariably procure sound sleep. They are the safest and most efficacious tnenicine to take to sea; preventing scurvy, coslivenes8, &c, The Vegetable Cleansing Powders are of great as sistance to patients, and facilitate the evacuation of bad humours; they solten, cleanse, and detach the acrimonious phlegm; are cooling, and allay the thirst.

Under tli.s impression, I accidentally saw an advertisement of yours in a New York newspaper, designating spurious l'llll«UUII9 IIVIII If; Having JUUl Willi TEN SIGN ATUilE to each bill of directions, and that in no instance were the imitations signed with pen and ink, although a perfect copy in every other respect.

I found mtny without this test, but none with it, until I came to the Me-tsrs Keerls', who assured tne they had them direct from you. I procured a box, and on using them, found the same effects from them I had always experienced, and am so much rejoiced on finding iny se> fm ssposseum of a medicine I so Highly prize, that that 1 cannot, in justice, refrain from giving you this information. tlj* To avoid the imposition of counterfeits and spu rious imitations, as related above, the purchaser has only to examine the Dili of directions covering each box, and if signed at foot, in my own handwriting, im mediately under my printed name, they are genuine, and prepared by me; but if o*lt the printed name is affixed, they are spurious, and to be avoided. 3.

When I first made and prepared this Ointment, and had, in several instances, experienced its good effect*, I sent it to several physicians, with instructions in what cases to apply it, who were of opinion that the Oint ment would he a valuable public benefit. I concluded that Hie Ointment would occasionally fall into many hands, some of whym would probably undertake to make it, and knowing the difficulty of the process-ne vertheless. it might he progated in this adulterated si.

Inthis complaint the pa tient, in applying the ointment, must keep the part outof water; i 8th Chilblains or parts affected by frost. It is also one of the heat remedies for burns and scalds. It cases the pain and draws the fire out hi a short time. For inflamed women’s breasts and glandular swel lings, it is superior to any medicine yet known to the medical faculty. It is much safer than mercurial ap plication!1, (as it does not contain the smallest atom of any preparation of the mineral,) because it docs not lay the patient liable to injury from exposure to cold. This Ointment has cured sores of many years stand ing. Where it Is impossible or imprudent to heal the external sore, in consequence of the bones becoming carious oi rottrn.it will stop the progress of the caries, increase the quantity of discharge, remove the offen sive smell, and ease the pains.

Sir —My son having been afflicted for five years witli white swelling, and having applied every reme dy recommended by the most eminent physicians within my reach without success, I at length procured one jug of Dr Judkins' Patent Specif c Ointment, and made the application according to the directions ac companying the ointment, and state, for the benefit of the afflicted that before one jog was used, a perf»-ct cure was effected.
