In the liternry department, wo aim r.t sketches an.l readable criticism, and in our condensations of the productions of the vast newsp p >r world of Europe, we endeavor to avoid the tiresome and the local, and transfer to our columns the pick of English information and brilliancy, while we endeavor to select with a true sen**J of pure morals, true wit. and genuine Hfitnor. In addition to the above, we have m.vlc new arrangements for a feature that is always attractive in a family journal.

DkaR Sih :?1 send you this to certify to you that your Extract of Yellow-Dock and Sarsuparilla lias performed one of the moat , wonderful cures on me that has ever hoen ef- # 'tJ fected on man. I have been afflicted for forty ye rs with eruptions on my legs and feet; in 1818 they got so bad that I had to go on crutches, and in 18-19 1 had one leg amputated shove the knee. In about nine months after my J other leg broke out in large eating and running sores from my knee to my foot, and discharged a great deal of offensive matter. My groin also broke out in large biles which discharged much offensive matter, and nt the aaine time niy left hand broke out in large running sores nearly to my flbow. The misery that 1 have suffered for the Ijist two years. 1 cannot describe to you. I was in such ngony that 1 never rested d^y or night. # In October last my son hi ought ma on* of your bottle wrappers; I road it, and found record of some wonderful cures performed ^ fijgg by your 'Extrnot of Yellow-Dock and Ss*. snparilla,' I sent and got two brittle* of it, and commenced taking it. In two Weeks to my great nstonishniont, my so.es all became easy, nnd I could sleep all night, ? thing 1 had not done for two years. When I liad taken six bottles, my sores were nearly all healed, My sores got well asif by enchant- v mont. I have now used in all. eight bottles of your "Extract of Yellow-Dock and Sar- ' sapnrilln," and 1 now consider myqelf well. 1 eptreat all of the afflicted to try this medicine for I believe it will euro any knowp disease in tho world. Lay aside ail prejudice and just try it, nnd nroolaim itti great worth to suffering mankind and entreat thorn tp take it, for it will cure them.
