Mt. Cupias, Diss, -Sir, -Having been in the habit of tuing "your Constitution Balls" for horses, I find them to be an excellent medicine for horses at hard work, and Particularly for grease, cracked heels, surfeit, hide-bound atd loss of appetite. I tried them on a two year old thorough-bred colt, which is engaged in the Derby and Great St. Ledger, 1846, after trying a great many medi- cines, all of which failed, I succeeded with your Con- stitution Balls," in bringing him into prime condition, < afttr a very obstinate case of surfeit and hide-bound, he i. now fresh as a star, and as fine as a fawn. I wish to consult you, sir, respecting the Constitution Balls as regards giving them to yearlings making up for sale at Doncaster races, which I have been in the habit of doing every year five or six, which are fed to the high- Olt extremity from being two months old, I should feel obliged by you informing me the quantity to be given to each yearling, age from the 24th of January, to the 16th of April, 1844 you will therefore oblige me by dropping line by return of post, on this subject. You are quite at liberty to publish this for the good of the medicine, as I am confident there is nothing equal to tbe Constitution Ilorse Balls. I remain, yours respectfully, JOHN JESSOP.

Messrs. now ARD and THOMAS continue to supply the Lo?,? of Teeth without springs or wires upon their new system of SELr'-AUHESiON, whi,?1? has procured them such uni- versal approbation, and is recommended by numerous Physicians and Surgeons as being the most ingenious system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They adapt themselves over the most tender gums, or remaining stumps without cusingthe least pain, rendering the painful operation ot extracting quit? unnecessary. They are so fixed as to fasten any loose teeth where the gums have shrunk from the use of calomel or other causes. They also beg to invite those not liking to undergo any painful operation, as Dractised bv most members ot the profession, to inspect their painless vet eliective system and in order that their improvements may be witliiii the rcach of the most economical, they will con- tune the same moderate charges.

WOM)FIIN-L CURE OF IHlEADFUL UI-CEROUS SORES IN THE FACE AND LEG, IX PKINCK EDWARD ISLAND. The Truth of tltis Statement was dilly attested before a Magistrate. TIIUGH MACDONALD, of Lot ?, in K-msc's L County, do hereby declare that a most wonder 1 preservation of my life has been effected by the use of Holloway's Pills and Ointment; and I furthermore de- clare, that I was very much afflicted with Ulcerous Sores in my Face and Leg so severe was my complaint, that the greater part of my nose and the roof of my mouth was eaten away, and my leg had three ulcers on it, and that I applied to several Medical gentlemen, who prescribed for me, but I found no relief. My strength was rapidly failing every day and the malady on the in- crease, when I was induced to try Holloway's Medicines. After taking two or three boxes, I experienced so much relief, and found the progress of the. disease was so much arrested, that I was enabled to resume my ordinary labours in the field. The sores which were so disagree- able and repulsive to behold are now nearly all healed. Having received such truly beneficial aid, I feel myself bound to express my gratitude to the person by whose means I have thus been restored from the pitiable and miserable state I was in; and for the sake of humanity make known my case, that others similarly situated might be relieved. (Signed) HUGH MACDONALD. This declaration made before me, at Bay Fortune, the 3d day of September, 1845. JOSEPH COFFIX, Justice of the Peace. The above case of Hugh Macdonald, of Lot 55, came personally under my observation and when he first ap- plied to me to get some of the Medicines, I thought his case utterly hopeless, and told him that his malady had got such hold that it was only throwing his money away to use them. He, however, persisted in trying them, and to my astonishment I find what he has aforesaid stated to be perfectly correct, and consider the case to be a most wonderful cure. (Signed) WM.

At fast I tried your Ointment and Pills, when, strange to say, in less than two weeks the swelling and inflammation gradually subsided to such a degree that I was enabled to pursue my (laily avoca- tion, to the utter surprise and amazement of those who were acquainted with my ease, seeing that I was cured soquieklv.

"Unquestionably this is a most extraordinary and skilful work, and ought to be extensively circulatcd for it is quite evident that there arc peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which are totally unknown and concealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly reprobated and condemned. The Engravings that ac- company the work are clear and explanatory and being written by a duly qualified medical practitioner, will doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, as well as those of maturer age, from the various evil conse- quences resulting from early indiscretions."—Magnet. "This work has the advantage over other treatises on the same subject, in being the production of a regularly educated and duty qualified member of the medical pro- fession, who has had very great experience in the treat- ment of a class of infirmities resulting from secret habits and excesses, which, for their treatment, the utmost secrecy, confidence, and skill, is so essentially requisite." -London Journal.
