EXCITEMENT UNABATED.
Proof that That Physician's Terrible Confession Is True. [Cleveland (O.) Herald.] Yesterday and the day before wo copied into i onr columns, from the Rochester (N. Y.) Demo-, crat and Chronicle, a remarkable statement, made by J. B. Henion, M.D., a gentleman who is well known in thia city. In that a rude Dr. Henion recounted a wonderful experience which befell him, and the ilfext day we published from the sdme paper a second article, giving an account of the excitement in Rochester,. and elsewhere, caused by Dr. Henion’s statement It is doubtful if any two articles were ever published which caused greater commotiop both among professionals and laymen. Since the publication of these 1 two articles, having been besiegod with letters of inquiry, we sent a connnumcatiou to Dr. Henion and also to H. H. Warner & Co., asking if any additional proof could be given, and here it* is: Gentlemen: I owe my life and present health wholly to tbe power of. Warner s Safe Cure., which snatched me from the very brink of the grave. It is not surprising that people should question the statement I made (which is true in every respect), for my recovery was as great a marvel to myself as to my physicians and friends. * * * „ J. B. Henion, M. D. Rochesteb, N. Y., Jan. 21. Sirs: The beat proof we can give you that the statements matte by Dr. Henion are entirely true, and would not have been published unless strictly so,As the following testimonial from the best citizens of Rochester, and a card published by Rev. Dr. Foote. H. H. Warner & Co.
To whom it may concern: ", We are personally or by reputation acquainted with Dr. Henion, and we believe he would publish no statement not literally true. We are also personally or by reputation well acquainted ivith Hi H. Warner & Co-., proprietors of Warner’s Safe Cure (by which Dr. Heiiion says he whß ( pui'od), ivhps.e commercial and persoaij standing in this community are of the highest order, and we believe that they would not pilblisli any statements which were not literally and strictly truo in every particular.

Democrat and Chronicle of the 31st of December, a statement made by J. B, Henion, M. D., narrating how he had been cured of Bright’s disease of the kidneys, almost in its last stages, by the use of Warner’s Safe Cure. I was referred to iu that statement, as Raving recommended and urged Dr. Henion to try the remedy, which lie did, and was cured. The statement of Dr. Henion is true, so far as it concerns myseif, and I believe it to bo true in all other respects. He Was a parishioner of mine and I visited him in his sickness. I urged him to take the medicine, and would do the samo again to any one who was troubled with a disease of the kidneys and liver. Israel Eoote (D. D.), (Late) Rector of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. Rochester, N. Y. -It seems impossible to doubt further in the faco of such conclusive proof.
