Til E Wholesale Agent for the sale of Holloway's Pills in New South Wales, alludes, in a letter to Professor Holloway, to several extraordinary cures of Asthma, effected in that Colony, by the use of these invaluable Pills; and to one case in particular —that of a lady residing near a hill named the Razorback, who, after having for twenty years been afllcted with great difficulty of breathing, and unable, in consequence, to bear the slightest exertion, at last used this remedy, and is now r , to use her own expression, able to run to the top of that high hill. Extraordinary cure of Rheumatic Fever by Holloway's Pills, in Van Diemen's Land. Margaret M'Connigan, nineteen veal's of age, residing at New Town, had been suffering from a violent rheumatic fever for upwards of two months, which had entirely deprived her of the use of her limbs. During this period she was under the care of three of the most eminent medical men in Hobart Town, and by them her case was considered hopeless. A friend prevailed upon her parents to try Holloway's celebrated Pills, which they consented to do, and in an incredibly short space of time a perfect cure was effected. The particulars of this case are copied from the 'Hobart Town Courier.'
