MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component parts are made known to the faculty, or any one else that may wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx -1 iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme North has advertised a Tomato Pill, to be made from the stalk, a thing not more absutu than for one to offer meal from the com stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. ® Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for tj>e great benefits of which, he holds himself boupd, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, thjt they are all that they profess to be, and will dd fox othcis what they have done for such as niav have used them; as this is a vegetable of grejit use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable to families to know that the Yellow ate just doubly as valuable as the P.ed Tomato, aipi produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used as a daily vegetable Will be found to keep the system in much better condition than the other kind; many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It has long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not, until of late was it ascertained that they contained alterative and diu retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that they know vrhat it is Were it a patent mysteiy, they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, saie anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in this city. We all know something about this. June 18 t s Radical Cure ol Hernia or Rupture, by Dr. Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses. 11HE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug - stor e of Messrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., forth! treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly celebrated instruments. He has now used them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides manv others who are in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of the com mittee ol the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testmes m every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wearother trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any other apparatus known to the committee.” * “ The committee are induced by the’foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong terms the in struments of Dr. Chase to the confidence of the profession, as the best known means of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” fouling is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in our own city “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object” 3 Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all cessary information given to enable them to adjust IhiJlSf 8 ?

SPOHN, a German physician of much note, having devoted his attention for some years to the cure and removal of the causes of NER VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis faction to make known, that he has a remedy which by removing the causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which they might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy. If is the result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. I HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS, i The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s ! remedy for this distressing corapaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter ofmuch astonishment, That so much suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an admitted fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th“ sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of jhe natural and healthy functions of the system. This object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professionai reputation on this fact. The remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 CHALLENGE.

Besides this important advantage, they never disagree with the stomach, and in the first stages of the disease they usually effect a cure in a few days, wit h little regard to aiet or exposure. In the most obstinate stages of the disease, they are equally certain, having cured many after every other remedy h*»d failed. In short they have been so universally successful that the proprietor chal lenges any one to produce a remedy of equal cer tainty, under a forfeiture ot Three Hundred Dollars.

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca^,March 3d, 1838: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, —By requestof your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and I would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, 1 speak of their merits from experience,as I and my family have taken upwards ol thirty boxes in three years ; and so great are the benefits we ha ve receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house without them. I will not enumerate the afflictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you were many, and of very opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim ple purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one case. I have a sister who had been for a long pe riod severely afflicted with dropsy in the chest and was brought by it to the very verge of the grave. She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but all their efforts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex pecting every day to be her last, your pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal m pable were their effects that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all who were witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to miraculous; and yet I could mention many more of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills were equally successful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of, I may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Ral eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upwards of fifteen months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though I had Applied to every thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best physicians, and I am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that I had scarcely used two boxes when I found that they had restored me to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success— and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia: Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir —On the night of the 11th inst., I was called in great haste to the house of a fellow ciiizen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Croap) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, I had in my pocket a broken box of your pills—four of which I administered, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This case, in connection with my name is at your ser vice—and I have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great favor with the faculty here, that I believe there is not one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

June 3 fFIHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compt^ 1 sition, especially injthe Northern States, leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in Us favor: for it has been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed ihc’specd and certainty of its operations, have tiie appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouuds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles, biles, spider and snake bites, &c. &c., immediately yield’to its superhuman influence. Thus, it prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five uays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervading the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed back and limbs of horses —for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or The proprietor has received at least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Ointtn nt,” upwards of a hundred of w hich were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty. Albany, July 9th, 1837. To Dr. Harrison. Sir—l useyour Specific Ointment in my practice, and cordially recommend it as a most efficient reme dy for Tumors, Ulcers, White Swellings, Scrofula, Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands: and for general external complaints. I write this at the request of your agent here, who furnishes me with the article, and am pleased to have it in ray power to award honor to merit. RUFUS R. BEACH, M. D. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 29, 1838. Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was sadly afflicted witn thecomp aim that physicians termed a scald head ; and I teared, independent of ever} other evil, that she would be bald in conse quence. By the recommendation, however, of the Reverend Mr. Perrin, I applied your ointment to the afflicted part; and I thank God that my child is now entirely recovered from the disease, and is gelling her hair as fast as can be expected. The cure was effected in lather less than two months; during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint ment ; I had spent upwards ol a hundred dollars during the previous three years, without any benefit whatever. MARY HOWARD. I hereby substantiate the truth ot the above statement. CHRISTOPHER HOWARD. 1 know the above statement to be cotrcct, and 1 can add from experience that “ Harrison’s Specific Ointment,” is an excellent medicine for external complaints. MATTHEW PERRIN.

Dr. Harrison Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have been long known toiuo,as 1 have used none other in my rather extensive practice lor several years, and if you think it would be to your auvantage, I can furnish you with twenty certificates of imptytant cures which it has effected under my own imme diate inspection: the last being one of a severe and apparently perpetual ulcer,in the back of a poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di vision street, which it completely healed in tw’enty one days. My present chief object in writing to , you, is to learn who is your authorised agent in this city, for, being in want of a supply of your oint ment, and the person Mr. Boyle, from whom 1 used ® to purchase it, having failed and gone out of busi ness, 1 am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that i may be imposed on by a counterfeit.
