A. O. CORBETT : Dear Sir, - In answer to your inquiry about the Randall Skeleton Grate Bars, put in here in December last, I state with pleasure, that, being determined to test them thoroughly, I have kept an accurate account of coal used, and find, up to this date, that I have used ten and a quarter tons less than in the same length of time last year.

E. D. SPEAR, M. D.,
THE OLD INDIAN DOCTOR,
So much Celebrated for his Remarkable Cures,
713 WASHINGTON STREET, BOSTON.
Dr. Spear can be consulted upon all diseases free of charge .- a
DR. SPEAR has issued a small work in which he says :- In prepar- ing the Medical Hand-book, for the afflicted and the public at large, which is designed to take the place of the more bulky " Family Physi- cian," the author and publisher has several objects in view, The first was to bring it into a more portable size, by eliminating and con- densing a large amount of reading matter, and omitting many testi- monials received in his earlier practice, thus meeting the demand of this fast and busy age, when few can stop to read long homilies on any subject. But the principal and most important object was to bring to the notice of the public a sample, at least, of the great mass of certificates and testimonials he has received within the last few years, and is now constantly receiving. To these he bespeaks the careful attention of the reader; and he refers to them in no boasting spirit, but simply as evidence that his study and effort to relieve suf- fering humanity have met with gratifying success. In this regard, he can cheerfully submit his claims as a successful physician, to that truest and most sacred of all tests, "By their fruits shall ye know them."
It may be thought by many hardly necessary to say, after commu- nicating with the public so often and for so long a time, that his treatment of diseases is peculiar to himself; but for the benefit of those just coming upon the stage of action, it may very properly be dwelt upon for a moment. Suffice it to say, in brief, that he has discar- ded many of the crude and absurd notions that obtained among practi- tioners of past ages, and clung to by many with surprising tenacity at the present day, and after careful study and diligent research into the various systems of practice, has adopted a system which has common sense combined with science as its basis. Upon this sure founda- tion, by the full use of his reason and judgment, he has drawn from Nature those pure and safe remedies, which, though all powerful in removing disease, and bringing to the patient joyous and gladsome health, leave no life-long sting behind.
To the sick, therefore, he feels authorized to speak words of en- couragement and hope. As will be seen by reading the testimonials, many who were near the gates of death, and given up as lost, have been rescued by his hand and restored to health. Others who are now suffering with little hope of relief, he believes may also be made to enjoy the rich blessings of health. The afflicted, then, of whatever nature, he invites to come to his office, No. 713 WASHINGTON STREET, BOSTON, with the assurance that his utmost skill shall be exerted in their behalf. The " Medical Hand-book" may be had free. Enclose stamps.

At the recent concert in Williamsburgh, June 23d, arranged by the different Sing- ing Societies in my honor, I had occasion to make myself acquainted with a GRAND PIANO from the UNITED PIANO MAKERS.
