B. Henion, who is well-know not only in Rochester, but in nearly ever; part of America, sent an extended articli :o this paper, a few days since which wai Inly published, detailing his remarkabh sxperience and rescue from what sccmec :ertain death, It would be impossible t( inumcrato the personal enquiries whicl: lave been made at our ollice as to tlu 'alidity of the article, but they have been o numerous that further investigation ot lie subject, was deemed an editorial neces'ty. 'U ■■:, With this end in view, a representative f ; tliis paper called 011 Dr Ilonioii, at liis .'sideiice. 011 Andrews-street when the ill,owing interview occurred " That>articlo of yours, Doctor,'-has reated quite a whirlwind, ■ Are tho stateibntsiabout'jtlm terrible condition you ere invalid .the way you ; were rescued ich. as yoU:Ciin sustain."

Thousands of so-called diseases .''are tottiiriiig . piopfe■, to-day, when in reality it i-s Bright's disease in someone of its many forms. ]fc j s .a'; Hydra-headed inonsier, and fiie slighted symptom should strike terror to every one v, ' io li'is. tlieni.'.: I; .'can: lcok back anil recall hundreds of deaths which physicians declared at the tiinewere caused by paralysis, .apoplexy, heart disease,. pneumonia malaria!' -fever and other common 'complaints which I now see were' caused by Bright's disease." .

Uirf getting my eyes thoroughly opened ti this matter, and tliiril; I am helping jthers to see the facts itud their possible
danger also. Why,, there are no end of truths bearing;on this subject. If you want to know inure about it go and see Mr Warner himself. He was sick the same as I, and is the healthiest man in liochestcr to-day; lie. has made a study of :this' stibject, and can give you more facts than { cam Go, too, and sce-Dr ; the- r chcmis£j {ifc-.J;]io'lJri iyerMty."' If you want facts there are any quantity; of them showing the alarming increase of' Brigiit s disease, its simple and deceptive symptoms, aul that there is but oiio wnv by. which .'it .can be escaped!'' . Fully satisfied of. the truth and tVce of the Doctor's words, tlie-reporter bado him good day and called on Mr Warner at his establishment. At first Mr .Warner was inclined to be reticent, but learning that the: information desired was abbut the i alarming, increase of Bright's disease, his manner changed instantly, and he spoke very earnestly: .. . ...'; ' 3 t'uc. that Bright's disease has. increased wonderfully, and we find, by, reliable statistics, that in' the past tun years its growth has been |250 per. cent. Look at .the promincnt nien ifc: has carried oil .::Evw'ett,Suniuer,.:Chase,:Wilson ) ,: Carpenter, Bishop Haven, ar.d others, .This.,; is terrible, and shows a. greater growth than that ot any other known coinplaiiit.j'lt shi.iuld'be.plaini'tii'everyoho'. that something must be.done tochecic.this increase, or there is no knowing where it may.endV'-V./
■ P" tbiuk many • people, are afflicted ivitlt.it to day who do'not realise it, *Warner^^^ " Hundreds of thousands. I have a istriking.examplo -of .this';" just- come to my notice. A prominent, professor iiiftylvew Orleans ; medical. .college 11713 Jccturiiig before his class oii .bf Bright : s ,psease,MHe;]iad.. various fluids under microscopic analysis, ;and was showing the students what : the' indications of this terrible .malady were. In older fo show the contrast between healthy und-unhealthy fluids, he had provided a vial, the contents.;.' of. .which were' drawn.from his own person, 1 And now, : he said, 'As we have seen the unhealthy indications, 1 will show you Jiow.it appears in a state of perfecthealth,' an(l he submitted his own fluid to tho usual test. As lie watched tho .result his : countenance suddenly changed—his.color' aiid ; command 'both left .him; and in.a. -trembling voice : he ; said : 1 Gentlemen;'-I' have made a painful discovery; I have Bright s disease of the Iciduoys,!. and in than a year he Was. dead." ■ ; '' i'ou believe tlmt it has no symptoms of its own, and is frequently unknown even by tlie porson who is afflicted with
: " : .Ifc has no symptoms' of its own, and very often noiie at all, Usually no two persons have the same symptoms, and frequently, death is the first symptom, The slightest indications of any kidney difficulty should bo onough to strike terror to any one. I know what I am talking about, for I have been through ajl the stages of kidney disease." " You know of Dr tfenion's case ?" " X 6?) I have both, read and heard of it," " It is very wonderful, is it not!" "A veiy prominent case, but no more ao than a great many other? that have come to my notice as having been cured by tlio same means," "to« believe then Bright's disease cstft bp cured T "Unov it caiv I know it from the fcxperience of hundreds of prominent persons who were given up to die by both their physicians and friends," _" You speak of your own experience, What was it ?" ■ ' «u"f/ e 'Y fu ! ° llO, 1 felt ' an § uitl an( l «n----ntted for business for years, but I did not know what ailed mo, When, however, T
found it was kidney difficulty I though tliero was little liopo, and so did fclio doc tors. Ilmvo since learned that 0110.0: ' the'physicians of this city pointed mo oui to a gentleman 011 tho street one day, saying: Thoro goes a man who will bi dead in a year.' I beliovo his words would have proved true if 1 had not fortunately procured and used the remedy known as Warner's safe cure." "And this caused you to manufacture it?" No, it caused mo to investigate,' and I determined as a duty I owed to humanity, to bring it within their reach, and now it is in every part of America, is sold in every dru? store; and has becomo a household necessity" i The reporter left Mr. Warner, much impressed with the earnestness and sincerity of the statements, and next paid a visit to Di S. A. Lattimore at his residence 011 Prince-street. Dr Lattimore, although busily engaged with some matters connected with the State Board of Health, of which he is one of tho analysts, courteously answered the questions that wero propounded him: "Did you make a chemical analysis of the case of Mr H, H. Warner some three years ago, Doctor ?" "Fes, sir."
" What did this analysis show you?" " The presence of albumen and tube casts in great abundanco." 1 . .... " And. what didthesymptomsindicato?" "Aserious.disea.se of the kidneys,"' " Did you think Mr Warner could, re- :. cover ?". ■■■./.' /'■ y .;-No, sir I did not think it possible, it was seldom, ilidecd, that so pronounced a case had, up to that time ever been cured.\^ .. you know anything: about the remedy which cured him l u .". Yes, I have chemically analyzed it, ' 1I1( 1 upon critical .examination, find it s entirely, free from any ■ poisoiiuus or de-. .:lptdrious;substaiices:' ,: •>■ ; , 0 publish the foregoing statements in view of tliecomniotion which the publicity °.f .Pr Henion's article has caused, and to fljeetth'e:protestations .which:; huulo, The standing of Dr Henion, slr :jyarner and Dr Lattimore in the conimun-. ;ity is beyond question, and the statements: they make cannot- for a moment be : doubted,.
