Its operation upon the human svstem is such that it invariably- acts like a charm,*for the relief and radical cure ol a certain common and disagreeable ‘ ills the flesh is hen to. This prize ot tains its own name from the certain success which has attended it through lts trying circumstances, namely, ‘‘five days, —e ( same success which followed it in a Northern lati tude still obtains in a more Southern. The tormula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intiigue and hazard by >1 Cheveres, from the celebrated Indian Chief Wabenothe, or Great Moon, whilst he, with others was pursuing the lucrative fur bu siness in the North-west with the Indians. W abenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable success throughout his two tribes. Its known and valued virtues lave already enriched to an almost incredible extent the children of this warlike prince, not only by ac tual sale of the article itself to in j dtviduals, but by parting with copies of his receipt at enormous pri:es to the Chiel of every tribe of Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the Great Spirit, never to divulge the “ait of its com position until he sleeps with his fathers,” although free to use it in their respective tribes, which ! places it in the hands of every Indian who rely j with, I may say. religious confidence on its cura -1 Lie powers.

Dr. miles compound extract of TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong ;.o the family of quack medicines; for the reason thai 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 iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting tc be made from the stalk, a thing not more ausuiu than for one to offer meal from the corn 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 the great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, an 1 will do for othcis what they i have done for such as mav have used them; as 1 this is a vegetab e of great use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, and when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the sy stem in much, better condition than the other kind ; many wiJ 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 principhs, but not until of late was it l ascertained that they contained alterative and diu , retie properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation nost cheerfully, for the reason that ; they know what it is Were it a patent mystery, 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, sa.e 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 ts j - ' —— Radical Cure ofHerntaor Rupture, by Dr. Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses. FIAHE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug X store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., forAhe 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 tins truly distressing and dangerous affection, by the use of these Trusses, 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 ard accurate retention of the in testines in every ease 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 wearcther trusses; trials that rvould be imprudent with any other apparatus k town to the committee.” “ The committee art 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.” The fol owing is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in ur 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.” Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjusi it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,from someresponsi ble person, of their pecuniary disability.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide oi experiment, and now stand before the pu ic as high in reputation, and as extensively employed in all parts of the United States, the Canadas, Texas Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine that has ever been prepared for the relief of suffering man. They have been introduced wherever it was found possible to carry them; and there are but few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propnetor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred oi which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. • Often have the cures performed by this medrcin been the subject of editorial comment, in vanou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value th in are at tached to this. Thev are in general use as a lamily medicine and there are thousands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they.have a supply always on hand. . , .. They have no rival in curing and preventing Billions Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the -pleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartouin, Furred Tongua, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,l latulence,Habitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels, where a cathartic or aperient is needed Taey are exceedingly mild in their operation, producing neither nausea, griping no debility. 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, 1 send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of yourpißs; and I would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I speak of their merits from experience, as 1 and my family have taken upwards ol thirty boxes in thiee years ; and so great ape the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them at ten dollars abox than have my house without them. I will not enumerate Tne afflictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they 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 pect ng every day to be her last, your pills w r ere introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal 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 equaUy successful in rescuing the patients from the jaws of death. Need I add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in I this section of the country ? But this I presume S you know from the immense quantity you dispose of 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain I of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Lai 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 upward 11 * of fifteen months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could hnd nothing— though 1 had applied to every tiling 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 1 found that they had restored me to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success — and consequently 1 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.

Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th inst., I was called in great haste to the house of a fefow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracneaiis (Croup) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, 1 had in my pocket a broken box of your pills —four of which I administere i, 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 1 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.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. FTancis Bo gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences of the quantity taken, and are decidedly supeiior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

They are indeed a superior medicine, and reflect credit alike upon the Chemist, the Physician, and the Philosopher. F-x tract of a letter from Dr. VVaines of lincin nati, Feb. 2,1838.—Y0ur Pills are the mildest in operations, and yet most powerful in their ef fects, of any that I have ever met with in a practice of eight and twenty years Tfeeir action on the chyle, and hence on the impurities of the blood is evidently very surprising ’ fr °7! “I' .! cott of Baltimore.

June 3 fINHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo i sit ion,especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor but little need lo say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded lo it,that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed the’speed and certainty of its opera'ions, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouuds, corns, fever sores.chilblains, w hile swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, <fcc. <fec., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, if prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of w bite swelling that can be ima go ed 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 j at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from perva nng the system It is likewise greatly supe- I rior lo any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed back and limbs of horses —lor tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei nal bodily evil that may fall lo the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received -if. least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in lavor of his “ Specific Oinim nt,” upwards of a hundred of which were v rilten by respectable members of the Medical Faculty. Albany, July 9th, 1837. To Dr. Harrison.

My present chief object in writing to you, is to learn who is your authorised agent iu this city, for,being in want of a supply of your oint ment, and the f*erson Mr. Boyle, from whom 1 used to pun hase it, having tailed and gone out of busi ness, 1 am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I may be imposed on bv a counterfeit.
