spooifloa ott sound phiioephical princi? ples which have made the moat wonder? ful cures in the annals of medicine. Liver, Blood, Lung and Nervous diseases are now virtually under his full control, and yield to the magic, subtle power of his remedies. I have myself seen num? bers of those who have been saved from the hand of death by his power, when the unfortunate Bufferers seemed doom? ed to an early grave, and all other treat? ment waa of no avail. In addition to what I oan vouch for personally, I have amplis evidence from other clergymen, physicians and eminent men o?. the highest character, who have also been saved by this wonderful treatment, and who speak in the highest praise and gra? titude of Dr. Hamilton as a physician and a gentleman of honor and integrity. It is but simply stating the positivo truth when I say that it is well known throughout this country that where his works are known and the fruits of his skill have been witnessed, he is highly esteemed by the people as the most emi? nent and remarkable physician in the treatment of chronic diseases of the age. Aa tho result of ? long personal and familiar acquaintance with Prof. Hamil? ton and his unparalleled success as a professional man pf the highest order, I frankly express the hope that diseased humanity in every part of our land may avail themeolvea of his most remarkable skill, and thus share the noble blessings so kradly and freely bestowed npon all.

D.-DRAB Sm: It is with pleasure that I communicate the result of the use of your medicines. When I first visited your office in New York, I could scarcely walk into the office without exhaustion. With all your prestige as a successful physician, I had but little hope that you could cure me. There was nothing strange in this. Four ?ears and four months had passed away, ut during that period I had suffered constantly with chronio diarrhoea and piles. I had some of the bost physi? cians, and used everything I heard of that I could prooure, but all in vain. Why should I think that you oould do me more good than others? But, sir,, justice and gratitude compel me to say that after the use of your medicines the result was A complote cure. I cannot expect to bo freed from liabilities to at? tacks of. disease any moro than other, men. I. wish I had tho voice of seven thunders, and oould assemble the sick in the world? I would direct them to you, sir, as one fully comp?tent to heal, and whose generous ami noble nature would not allow exhorbitant charges. Yours truly,. BEY. GEORGE H. JONES.

HAMILTON: My best friend and brother-You have saved my lifel This is not only certain to my own apprehen? sion, bnt all my personal friends, who have known my sufferings so long and so well, join in this opinion. From a spinal disease I have suffered for years what ne tongue can tell. Besides this disease, I have been afflicted with aggravated affections of the liver and spleen; and my kidneys and bladder have been so diseased, that other physicians havo tried their skill in vain. I have laid ia hospitals for mouths, and I have again and again consulted the most eminent physicians and surgeons in Boston, Now Vork, Charleston, Cincinnati, Chicago, and other cities, without regard to ex? pense. They were men of learning and great reputation, but, in all honesty, I must say they did mo no good. After trying thoroughly thoir skill, thoy have had to acknowlodgo my case as compli cated and hopeless-"incurable," as they hayo termed it. lu nine weeks you have oared mo-made me a new man. I had no hope? nor had my friande; bnt I am now right; I aa well; and rejoice that, after eighteen yean of suffering, I know what it is to enjoy the blessed, joyous feeling of health, vigor, life, freedom from pain, and With fte power to work, think, and enjoy myself. I offer yon this testimonial gladly; I hope it will lead hundreds to you. I know that whereof I here testify; and I shall ever take the greatest satisfaction io recom? mending you to all the afflicted, for to yon I owe my life. Your true friend aqd brother, A. G. BUTTERFIELD, Monroe Street, between Bedford and Franklin Aten?es, Brooklyn, N. Y. RHEUMATISM CUBED. William MoNellis, Eagle Rock, Tenan? go County, Pennsylvania, writes: "I return my sincere thanks for having permanently oared me of rheumatism, after having suffered severely for about seven years. When I had doctored with other doctors, and tried all tho patent medioines that I could get, without avail, and was so bad that I conld hardly get out of my honse, and part of tho time not able to get oat of my bed, as I was affected in nearly every joint, I thought I would try you as a last resort. To my great joy, in less than three weeks I was able to go ont and jump with the most active man in the place. In ono month, I was perfectly cured, and thad gained seventeen pounds; and I never had bet? ter health in my life than I have enjoyed for the last six months. May God bless you and your miraculous remedies." CASES OF ASTHMA. AFTON, N. Y. To Prof. P.. L. Hamilton. DEAB DOCTOR: It waa between six and eoven years I was afflicted with that dire malady, the Asthma, and after employ? ing the best medical skill in the country, and taking all the patent medicines re? commended, without avail or any per? manent relief, I began to think there was no cure for it; but noticing an ad? vertisement of yours in one of the New York papers, it was with the greatest re? luctance I wrote you, as I then expected it would not benefit me, and would bo worse than useless. In this I was greatly disappointed, as I had not taken the medicine more than two weeks, beforo I was able to do light work on the farm. Before this, I could not attend to any business, boing completely prostrated, and after taking two packages, consi? dered myself perfectly cured and my health fully re-established, tho bron? chial difficulties and all bad symptoms being entirely removed. All this is at? tributable to your unrivaled medicine, under tho Divine sanction, which I trust with me will ever be remembered with gratitude. I cannot close this communi? cation without expression of my heart? felt gratitudo and thanks for tho timely aid you rendered my daughter in Con? sumption. The efficiency of the medi? cine in her case has beeu truly miracu? lous. That hectic cough and flash oe her cheek, with the other consumptive symptoms, have entirely left her, and now, after a period of five months, sht is oujoying good health and is quito ro? bust, so much that Bhe has euguged tc teach school this summer. You aro at liberty to show this letter to any similar ly afflicted, br publish it, as you tin ul propor. Any lotter of inquiry I wil cheerfully auswer.

RAISING DLOOD CURED IN FOUR DAYS. Mr. L. C. Woodby, of Moultan, Texas, writes: "For two months previous to taking your medicines I had been coughing up a good deal of blood and matter night and day, and could not lay my head dovn without this matter would run up in my throat, causing a very unpleasant sensation, and requiring a good deal of coughing and spitting before the throat could bo cleared. I took your medicines three or four days, when I ceased lo cough up either blood or matter. I have been gaining ever since. My appetite and strength are being restored, and I con? sider myself in a fair way to fully reco? ver, though my case for a long time bas boen regarded as hopeless." TORRANCE, YALABUSHA Co., Miss. DR. R. L. HAMILTON-MY DEAR SIR: Six months ago, when I read your ad? vertisement in the Metro})olitan Record, my wife was, and had been for two years, suffering with liver complaint, chills and fever, and other ills so common in our low lands of tho South, and was so re? duced, (having been confined to her bed for nearly a year,) that I did not think sho could ever recover. She commenced tho uso of your medicines, and to my surprise began to improve tho first week, and has steadily gained until the pre? sent time. Sho is now able to attend to her household duties, and I deem her permanently cured. She is lively and cheerful, and feels that your remedies should find a placo in every Southern house. I am also happy to add that your treatment for rheumatism in my own case has been equally as satisfactory. Before using your medicine I bad been subject to severe attacks for four years, and, having tried all tho different Pain Killers, Liniments, ?fcc, despaired of be? ing cured. The uso of your medicino promptly, and, I believe, permanently, cured me. You can, if you please, moko use of this letter, ns I feel it my duty to do all in my power in this humbug age to extend the practice of one whom I know to be capable of doing what ho claims. I am well-known hore, as is also what you have done for mo, and have already induced several to apply to you, aud I shall not rest until I havo made you and your wonderful cures known to all tho dis? eased in this region. May God bless the efforts you put forth for the healing of the sick and tho afflicted. Yours truly, ROBERT E. WILBOURN. ANOTHER APPEAL TO THE INCREDULOUS!

Tuesday Morning, August 17,1869. Slr. Pendleton's Nomination. Our telegraphic despatches tell of the nomination of George H. Pendleton, by the Exeoutive Committeo of the Demo? cratic party, as Governor of Ohio, vice General Rosencranz, declined. When a party thus puts forward ono of sts best representatives, the sign is a good one. Mr. Pendleton has been called "tho rising star of tho West." He is a man of lofty character and eminent abilities, combines in himself many of tho elements that go to form n high order of states? manship. A Democrat by conviction, his mind is yet broad enough to take in the interests of tho whole country. In tho last Presidential canvass, no man made abler speeches, and his him utter? ances, not wanting in a beautiful poetic view, wero received by thousands with delight and admiration. Ohio will do well to elect him to tho office of Governor. Weekly Review of the State Press. Tho Laurensville Herald, in an article upon "the spirit of the South," takes the ground that this State and the South should not waver "in tho old lines of the last great formation, when Seymour and Blair were our standard-bearers." It holds that "America should bo ruled by whito men;" and contends ,that there is no wisdom in compromise when political principle and the rights of men are in? volved. It disapproves of the Virginia conservative movement-will continue tho war upon Messrs. Scott k Co.-and calls for organization among the white* in the State. Tho Clarendon Press alludes to thc prospect of the South Carolina Centra! Railroad being constructed, and felici? tates Clarendon upon the advantage thus to accrue to her. Tho Lancaster Ledger looks with favoi upon the war among the radicals ir Charleston, and indicates its preference for the Sawyer typo over the Macke type of radicalism. It has its comment upon the movement attributed to Go vornor Scott in connection with the Lau rous Railroad locomotive. And in behal of Lancaster, it calls for a visit from th Chinese agent, Mr. Joseph. The Winnsboro News, of the 14th urges "formation and drill of aconserva tivo party in South Carolina," after th manner of Virginia and Tennessee.) Tho Orangeburg News, a radical paper modifies its position, and announces it self ns the advocate of a conservativ< Republican party in South Carolina. I goes for "universal suffrage and amnest; on tho side of intelligence, honesty an< virtue." All along, this paper has bee) the apologist and defender of th "powers that be" in this State. The Charleston News, of the 14th corrects tho mis-statements of tho Maco: Telegraph on affairs in South Caroline and asserts that South Carolina is to-da as strong as any other State of th South, and has a bright prospect for th future. In the lower part of the Stat it states that tho condition of affairs hs improved, and that in tho State general! tho people aro confident and cheerfu All this in reply to tho sensational stor of tho Telegraph, that the crops ha I failed-that a famine was imminent that tho lower country was given up t the negroes, and that tho whites wei leaving that section-all of which i mero ?>os7i. Tho Charleston Courier, of tho 14tl speaks of Mr. Motley's mission to Enc land and its failure. Roverdy Johnson treaty was rejected by tho radical party iufluence. Mr. Motley is sent to do be ter, and tho result now appears in th announcement of Victoria to her Pai'ii ment, that tho [negotiations on the sui ject have, by mutual consent, been sui ponded. The Commissioner of Internal Rov< nuo in the case of Goodrich, Winema & Co., of Charleston, S. C., has docide that manufacturers of medicated bittei prepared for medicinal uso, and contaii ing but twenty-five por cont, of alcoho are exempt from rectifiers' tax, and ai to pay only the usual manufacturers' 1 cense. Tho prospects for cotton in Egypt ai favorable. Tho crop is estimated i 1,750,000 cartos. Tho lowness of th river Nile excites general attention. Tl: water is lower than it has been within K years.
