" Dear Sir, — I have much pleasure in cer tifying that, having frequently had occasion to make use of Borthwick's Patent Anti-fouling Composition for the bottoms of iron vessels belonging to the JNew Zealand Steam Naviga tion Company, I found it much superior to Peacock's Patent in keeping off marine shells and other fouling matter, more particularly so when put on under your superintendence, and also in the case of the s.s. 'Rangatira,' that several patches of your own particular com position stood eleven months' test quite as well, if not better, than that patented in Melbourne. —I am, &c, "FRED. RENJSER, "Master s.s.

<£> "4^ "^x '%-%-^^si§ %\ %^ %^> • PREPARED by tlie PROPRIETOR* 1 speedy relief, and radica cur ot diseases, of the LIVER, GOUT, SCIATICA, RHEUMA. TISM, NEURALGIA, TIODOLOREtTXvi ~ INDIGESTION, AND FLATULENCE* DIARRHCEA AND DYSENTERY, from vegetable remedies, whose healing vir. tues were revealed to him by the wise and leaeued men of India. The Proprietor carefully watched and noted the symptoms produced by these herbs, and eventually perfected the East-Indian Remedies, which he has administered with such un varying success that thousands of personß, in. all grades of society, have been radically cured of the above painful diseases, and have ex« pressed their grateful thanks in ardent lan guage for the cure effected by these medicines. Many hundreds of persons greviously af- \ flicted by Rheumatism and Swollen Joints, t overcome by diseases, worn out with many years of suffering, racked with pain, unable to sleep by night, or "work during the day— to whom life was a burden, and from whom ere» hope had departed, have been thoroughly cured by these remedies, and are now living witnesses of their healing virtues. The Remedies differ from all other inedi-' cines in this most important particular, they don't weaken the patient;, undermine tlie con stitution, or introduce into the system those I mineral poisons so pernicious to.the blodd.rr-Ti I On the contrary, they relieve at once, finally 1 eradicate pain, subdue the torture of I Rheumatism, Sciatica, and Neuralgia, ] and build up naturally the organs to funo- \ tional vigour. | Melbourne, October 7, 1868. My Deae Sib, —In reply to your request, I gratefully forward you a further certificate of the value of your medicine, in cases which have fallen to my own knowledge. I have been suffering from Rheumatism constantly for five years ;-- the result of many wet jackets in Hobson's Bay, before I put myself under your treatment. In the history of that time there are all sorts I of horrible and some comical reminiscencea. Paileful of medicine ; baths of sulphur; baflw of brine ; baths medicated; and baths galvanic. Out of the one the patient came smelling like a lucifer match: out of another, stewed to an uncommon limpness, or quivering like a galvanised frog. You may be sure that I spent a good deal of coin in making the trial of the above so called remedies; none of them, however, gave me permanent relief; but yours, in a few days after I had taken it, destroyed the racking pain aud gave a general tone to the health. Many of niv friends, especially the medical ones, thought bad results would follow 5 but . more than seven years have now gone by and I have had no relapse. I have since sent scores of people to you of all classes, and have never heard of your fail ing to relieve them. Accept my congratulations that you have ' successfully established the value of the medi cines, despite all obstacles.—Yours very faith fully, JOHN J. SHILLINGLAW, . Government Shipping Master. From C. P. HACKETT, Esq., Police MagU trate, Melbourne. A widely-known bad case. Cured in about a fortnight. Police Office, Melbourne, January 25, 1867. \; Beab Sie,--Four years have now elapsed since, at the instance of my friend Mr. John ■ Shillinglaw, (whom you had so miraculously, cured of long-standing Rheumatism) I was I induced to place myself in your hands, as I. was at that time, as for two years previously,^ in bad health. I had at various times, manyS I of the leading medical men in Melbourne, and I had also tried the effects of change of air in y New Zealand and Van Dieman's Land, but without deriving any advantage; yet withintj a fortnight of taking the first glass of your medicine I was thoroughly cured, and since ■ that time I have been free from any jeturn of j my ailments. 0.
