Dear Sir,—T n&Ye been troubled with nervous debility for the past eight yoars, brought on. as you have explained in the Canterbury Times, by the early youth. I have spent scores of pounds first with one and then with another, but never received any permanent benefit. Some said that I had heart diseaso, others that I was consumptive, but when I wrote to you from fihe Rukaia you explained toy symptoms so exactly v tb&i i was induced to corae to town at once, though you told me you could treat me equally as well by stopping and attending to my work as in losing time bj coming to town. 1 was unfit for work, so decided to come to town for a «pell, as I could neither eat nor sleep. Sly mind wandered; I h*d a desire to be away from company, and yet when alone niv own company wasliatefal to mo. I was troubled'with thti most hideous dreams, and was in that low, nervous state . irbich jn2do me sometimes feel as if death would be a kaFPX rolaaso. My head ached, my heart palpitated violently, I would start afcu st at my own shadow. My Blind, in fact, was not my own I saw you on my arrival in town, when you were in Manchester-street, and you then told me that it would take three months at the very least to effect a perfect cure, and that I must comply exactly with your instructions; if not, you would not guarantee a euro. lam now happy to say that 1 did as you told me to the very regulating my nours and habits, and that now, after the lapse of fifteen weeks, my memory is restored, my sight has become strong again, my mind has ceased to wander, I oan enjoy company, pud, in short, Richard's himself Again. I should not go to the trouble of describing so minutely my sufferings, but that I know of so many young men who are living secluded lives whose sufferings are precisely what my own were before I came to you, and who, although in health, would be really amiable and estimable persons, are looked upon as gloomy, morose, and unsociable men simply because of that phase of the disease which I have named, a hatred for company. If this should be read by anr of those persons, suffering as I did, and thev are induced to apply to you for relief, I will guarantee tfcat thev will say after a few weeks that they never la»d »ut n snore pro Stable sum of money tlian whon they camc to Professor Guscott.—Believe me, yours faithfully, Richard Dobson. P.S.—I return to uiy work to-mor-row, aud Ikuowmy frie. ds there will bo agreeablv astonished at iny present appearance. Vic'oria-street, Chriitclixurch, Jan. 20, ISSO. To Professor Town Helt.

In doing so I mav state that prior to consulting you I had tri?d all the'medical men in town, without obtaining any relief. Accidentally meet- ! lag Mr. Williams of this town, he related to iue how you. had him of the same complaint, and strongly advised me to consult you. This I reluctantly did, as I had become quite disheartened with what I had hitherto only "roved attempted cures, and had -ultimately resulted iu absolute failure. Aftergivingyou A short tr?&L however, I became convinced that yours wis no attempted cure, and thoresult proved my conmictions quite correct, for in 15 days I was going'about in a perfectly wound state of health. lam well known in Ashbarton.— X am, yours ever truly, John Harrison.

Before I left Welling, ton I had been under three different doctors, but never received any benefit from them.

I have always hoard it said that when any one is tapped there is no euro; but I am happy to say that when 1 applied to you you said you could cure me in six weeks, 'providing that I went by your instructions; also when you showed us the different a*s-ortinents and the quantity that you have, my husband made up his mind at once and being a believer iu !>u<*->4 and the nnnv hopeless cases they have cured in U» 1 part of Lancashire that 1 came from, I Snew that 1 ;ould not do any better tlian come under your treau.ient. 1 feel it my dutv to publicly acknowledge the gre.it benefit I have derived froßi yonr treatmeut.—l am, yours ever grateful, Sarah Petch.

You told me when I came to see you just the same in every sense as I felt, therefore I made up my mind that i had struok on the right man, for when you examine me, you cautioned me tojtell you but all the other medical men l have been under have always asked ma how I felt, and all particulars, such as feeling my pulse, and examining my tongue, but you put your finger right on the plare where I was affected—both between the shoulders, under the ribs, and on my heart.

Dear Sir,—Permit me to tender my grateful acknowledgments to you for tbe benefit I have received from « your herbal treatment. Although I have been under £ the rare of several doctors, but I n-jver received any j benefit from them, but got weaker both in body and j mind daily, so much so that I was almost worn to a j Skeleton ; bat hearing of the wonderful cures you had made, I made up my mind that I would come and consult you. When I came to you, you explained all my symptoms so minutely that I was perfectly satisfled to place myself under your trgitment. You told me that you would make a of me for five pounds, for which I gave you a cheque for tho amount. At that time everything that I eat went sour on my stomach, and was constantly rifting wind and gas. 1 had a continual palpitation and violent pains under the left breast, pains between the shoulder blades. I had always cold chills, cold hands and feet, and felt as if some one was pouring eold frater my back. I am happy now to inform r>uthatl am free from all my former complaints, can now eat well and sleep well, and I shall always bo happy to recommend anyone suffering from the same.

When I came to you you told me you could cure me in 48 hours, but I was rather doubtful, but hearing you were rather hasty. I dared not tellyou that I doubted your ability to cure me in such a short time, having bee a treated by many of the homoeopathic, allopathic, but none ever effected a cure. You told nae that you would charge me £1 for a euro, which I was most happy to comply with your wishes on those conditions; also you told me you would refund my money back again if you d?d not do so iu presence of Mrs. Gray and Mrs. Allans, but I am happy to say that I prefer presenting you with the monster in preference of the money. I have shown this to many of my lady friends in this neighbourhood. —I remain, yours truly, Mrs. "EHiya.
