ANTi-BALSAMIC gonorrhceal solution,
Warranted to curt in Five Days.
THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy mo
know n, and used with such unparrallelcd
success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap

; common and disagreeable ‘rills the flesh is heir to.
This prize ot tains its own name from the certain
i success which has attended it through a i
j trying circumstances, namely, “live days,
1 same success which followed it in a . or. l ,
i tude still obtains in a more Southern. e
or recipe was obtained at great expense, ~
and hazard by M Cheveres, from the celebrated
Indian Chief Wabesothe, or Great Moon, ■ w hilst
he, with otners was pursuing the lucrative I-urbu
siness in the North-west with the Indians —
Wabenoshe priced highly and use it with invariable
success throughout his two tribes. Its known and
I valued virtues; have already enriched to an almost
incredible exteiitthe children of this warlikei prince,
not only by actual sale of the article itself to in
dividuals, but by parting with copies of his receipt
at enormous price* to the Chief of every tn e o
Indians in America, with a solemn promise to the
Great Spirit, never to divulge the “art 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
with, I may say, religious confidence on its cura
ble powers. , ..
Below is a cony of the translation as near as it can
be anglisized of the deed given by Wabenoshe, to
M. Cheveret, when he purchased thS original recipe,
and had twice assisted the Chief himself through
the tedious mai ipulatory process of manufacture.
Few white men would credit the length of time

The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,”
■ is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to
affect a cure, none of those tenacious and disagree

known to obtain such as stricture, hernia, humor

TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES.
Dr. 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
iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme
North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to
be made from The stalk, a thing not more aosuiu
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, snd will do for otheis what they
have done for such as mav have used them; as
this is a vegetable 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
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 what it is Were it a patent mystery,
they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they
justly do the ore 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,

Radical Cure ol llerniaor Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
TIN HE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug
X sto *e of M essrs. J. J. Robertson & Co., for the
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 many
| others who are in a fairway of being entirely re
! lieved. The following is the language of the *com
j mittee o 1 the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
, Radical Cure ol‘ Hernia.
“ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected
| the permanent and accurate retention of the in
testines in 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 wear other
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.”
The following is from the Southern Medicafand
Southern Journal, published in our own city.
“ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia,
ami 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 nel
cessary information given to enable them to adjust
it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under
tins afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous
ly upon presenting a certificate, from someresponsi
ble person, of their pecuniary'disability'.
The instruments are of ali sizes, and applicable
to every variety of reducible rupture.

DR. E. SPOHN, a German physician of much
note, having devoted his attention for some
years to the cure and removal of the esuses of NER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has lhe 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 raany
families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as
sures them that they ore mistaken, and labouring
under dislress which they might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the if his remedy.
It 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.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing compainl is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so m ich 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 assnres the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a mined fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim- 1
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 Q sys- f
tern has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the I
stomach, and that only through the same channel j
must they expects restoration of the 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
1 professionai reputation on this fact. Ttie remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United States.

The French Pills are applicable in all cases, sot
either sex, (warranted free from Mercury,; and pos
sesses great advantages over the Balsams and all
liquid medicines, by being entirely free from smell,
and consequently do not effect the breath, thereby
preventing the possibility of discovery while using
them.
Besides this important advantage, thev never
disagree with the stomach, and in the first stages of
the disease they usually effect a cure in a few days,
with little regard to oiet or exposure.
In the most obstinate stages of the disease, they
; are equally certain, having cured many after every
1 other remedy failed. In short they have been

1 1 in> E Pills are no longer amcng those ot doul l
-1 ful utility. They have passed away from the
hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide ot
experiment, and now stand before the pu tc as
high in reputation, and as extensively employed in
all parts of the United States, the Canadas, iexas
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 theirgoed effects. The certificates
that have been presented to the prepnetor exceed
twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred o
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges ot their merits.
• Often have the cures performed by this raedtem
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 thm are at

neither nausea, griping nor debility.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a
highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No j
Ca., March 3d, 1838:
Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, —Byrequestof your agent, f
Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the
almost miraculous effects of your piPs; and 1 would
add, that you may make use ol them, in connection
with my name, in any manner y r ou deem proper, I
speak of their merits from experience, as I and my
family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three
years ; and so great aee the benefits we have receiv
ed from them in general, that I would rather pur
chase them at ten dollars abox than have my house
without them. I will not enumerate the 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 w r ho had been for a long pc- i
riod severely' afflicted with dropsy in the chest and
was brought by it to the very verge of the grate.
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
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 j
miraculous; and y-et 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 1 add that the popu- j
larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in j

To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward 0 of fifteen
months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever
and Ague; and during the time could find nothing—
though 1 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 1
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 j
to perfect health. Since then, various members of i
my family have used them with equal success — i
and consequently- I feel it my duty to apprise you j
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 y-our un
rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours,
THEODORE JAMES.

Communication received from the eminent Dr. J.
H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia:
Dr. J. P. Peters—My Dear Sir —On the night of
the llthinst.,l was called in great haste to the i
house of a fellow citizen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found
his son laboring under a most alarming attack of |
Cynanche Tracnealis (Cronp) and apparently be- !
yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for- I
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
ray 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. Yours most resp’y.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis 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 superior |
to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.
Extract from a letter by- Dr. Hopson of Bangor,
Me , Jan. 9, 1839. They are a peculiarly mild, yet
efficient purgative medicine, and produce little, if
any, griping or nausea. 1 have prescribed them
with much success in sick headache and slight bil
lious fever.
Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of
Burlington, Vt., July 9, 1837. — 1 cordially recom
mend Peters’ Pills as a mildly effective, and in no
case dangerous, family medicine. They- are pecu
liarly influential in costiveness and all the usual
diseases of the digestive organs.
Extract of a letter from Dr. Edw Smith of Mon
treal, U. Sept. 27, 1836. —I never knev a single
patent medicine that I could put the least confi

really a valuable discovery, I have no hesitation
in having it known that I use them extensively in
my practice,for all complaints, (and they are not a
few) which have their source in the impurity of the
blood
Extract of a letter from Dr. Dye of Quebec L.
C., March 6, 1837.—F0r bilious fevers, sick head
ache, torpidity of the bowels, and enlargement of
the spleen. Dr, Peters’Pills are an excellent medi
cine.
Extract of a letter from Dr Gurney of New Or
leans, La„Oct. 9, 1837.—1 have received much as
sistance in my practice—especially- in jaundice and
yellow fever, from the use of Peters’ Pills. I pre
sume that, on an average, I prescribe 100 boxes in
a month
Extract of a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson
N. Y., June 3, 1836.—1 was aware that Dr. Petera
was one of the best chemists in the United States
and felt assured that he would some dav (from his’
intimate knowledge of the propertie’s of herbs
and drugs) produce anefficientmedicine,andlmust
acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond
to my expectations. They are indeed a superior
medicine, and reflect credit alike upon the Chemist,
the Physician, and the Philosopher.
Extract of a letter from Dr. W’aines of Cincin
nati, Feb. 2, 1838.—Your Pills are the mildest in
their operations, and yet most powerful in their ef
tects, of any that I have ever met with in a practice
of eight and twenty years Their action on the
chyle, and hence on the impurities of the blood is
evidently- very surprising. *

mHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo
| aition,especially in,the Northern States, leaves
the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its
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 the'spced and certainly of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouuds,
corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake biles, &c. &c., immediately
yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, if prop
erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or
break and heal a bile in live days, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most
j desperate casesut white swelling that can be ima
-1 gired.have been destroyed by it in less than two
I months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi
j cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its
! powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will
1 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 exter
nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or
beast.
The proprietor has received at least a thousand
certificates, and other documents, in favor of his
“ Specific Ointm nf,” upwards of a hundred of
w’hich w r ere written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.
Albany, July 9ih, 1837.
To Dr. Harrison.
Sir —I use your Specific Ointment in my practice,
and cordially recommend it as a most efficient reme
civ for Tumors, Ulcers Whiie Swellings, Scrofula,
Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands:
and for general external complaints. 1 write this
ai the request of your agent here, who furnishes me
with the article, and am pleased to have it in my

Dear Sir—My daughter,a girl of fourteen, was
sadly afflicted witn thecorap aim that physicians
termed a scald head ; and 1 feared, indepe dent of
every 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
| getting her hail as fast as can be expected The
j cure was effected in lather less than two months;
! during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint
j menl; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
duting the previous three years, without any benefit
1 whatever.

Dear Sir—l nave to request of yon to forward j
me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most
, immediate conveyance, and without regard to the
I expense of carnage, as lam quite out, and much
! in want of it. —You know my estimation of your
j valuable discovery, and therefore J shall only add,

perior to any remedy extant for external diseases.
Respectfully yours,
CHARLES P. EMERSON, M. D.
New Orleans, Match 20th, 1838.
Dr. Harrison.
Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have
been long known to me,as 1 have used none other
in my rather extensive practice lorseveral years,and
if you think it would be to your advantage, I can
furnish you with twenty certificates of important
j cures w hich it has effected under my own imme
diate inspection: the last being one of a severe
| and apparently perpetual nicer,in the back of a
poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di
vision street, which it completely heeled in twenty
one days. My present chief ob|ect in w riting to
you, is to learn who is your authorised agent, in this
city, for,being in want us a supply of your oint
ment, and the person Mr. Boyle,from whom I useid
to purchase it, having failed and gone out of busi
ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I
may be imposed on by a counterfeit.
Your obedient servant,
EDWARD RA3ISEY, M. D.

Dr. Harrison.
Sir, —I have no hesitation in stating, in reply to
yournote,that your 4 * Specific Ointment” is truly
equal to the majority of the ends for which you re
commend it. 1 qualify my certificate by the word
majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in
medical matters where I have had no experience.
j In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit
i lows, piles, &c., it is m v universal recipe. I have
also used it on the leg of a boy which had been
bitten by an adder, and the extraction of the poison,
Qnd ultimate cure was so rapid, that my patient was
at. well as ever in a week ; and has remained so to i
this day

fINHE subscriber has the pleasure ol apnoun C i r
J lo the citizens of the U. States, ihui so. h "
purchased, for a very large sum and f ryrn tile
ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris jl
recipe ar. d right for making this astonishing m e( r
cine. Until the appearance of the “ Lucins (v r ¥
dial,” (about three years since,) it was though t j, ‘ .
the complaints,which it speedily overcomes, w er(i
beyond the reach of human remedy, as forupw.ard,
of a Ihousand years, they had bafflpd the
and ingenuity of the most profound physicians i r
all parts of the world. This ( ordial, however, [q
the great advantage of the human race,soon proven
itself to be the desideratum so long sought for ; and
accordingly, notwithstanding rl e brief peri dof itl
existence, it has required a celebrity so great, th 8t
It Is eagerly inquired for throughout the civili Zed
globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that the denial
was so vast aa to render a supply impossible, (j 18 ,
posed of the recipe and right o« sale, underoblij. ,
tions of secrecy, far England, the United States
and othei countries, only preserving France and
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p o|
sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and n ovv
hastens lo give the inhabitants of his line cf a g enc
the benefits of his speculation.
,4 le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “fi,, /
Lucina Cordial,” is a general invigorator of f[j*
human frame ! In all the various cases of languor
lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme’
dy ; as it is equally its province to impart
ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigrjf
to the body But the peculiar virtue on which m
celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with
which it restores the virile powers when they hav#
been destroyed by disease.time,recklessness,orarty
of the numerous causes which terminate in the
proslration of those functions.
In common with the generality of really good
medicines, ihis v ordial contains nothing of a rr.tr
curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre.
dients which compose it ; but is, at ihe same rime,
so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno
vate the prooirated energies of a giant, an infant
may use it,not only wilh impunity, but with ad
vantage.
The usages of society are unfortunately suSH,
that, notwithstanding the benefits which would be
sure to result from it, we cannot enter into an anaiv
sis ol this inestimable Cordial here, or publisu rnariy
of the documents which have been received, as
vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on nura
bersof despairingmdividnals. But this we cannot
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
that there is scarcely ever, it any such thing at all,
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of
the procreant fund ions, in either sex ; and therefore,
that, those evils are the effects of artificial causes, I
and may be speedily subdued and removed by the
use ol 44 Le Cordial de Lucine.”
The Lucina Cordial is also an indubitable cure
for the Gleet, and i he Fluor A Ibus, obstructed, diffi.
cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon
tinence ol Urine,or the involuntary discharge there,
of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled
medicine in cases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin,
and in the dropsical affections ot the aged.
Most important to the American Public, V
The United States proprietor of the celebrated
44 Lucma Cordial,” or 4 - Elixir of Love,” begs folly
before the community, the following certificate,
which he has received from the inventor, the dim.
tnous Dr. Magnin.of Paris ;
44 Thij is to certify, that I have disposed of the
recipe for making the “Luc.na Cordial,” or
44 Elixir of Love,” and also the right to sell it
throughout the I nited Slates of North America, .
to John Winters Hoiderw ell, M. D. My reasons
for so doing is, that the demands to me for the above
Cordial, of which lam the invemor, are so nurae- *
rous, I hat I am unable ro supply all the orders from
France and Italy alone; and have therefore dispu
ted of the privileges vouchsafed in (his, and oilier
certificates of a like nature in order to generalise
the benefiis of my discovery throughout the world.

j T ° D I r - Magnin:—My dear friend—l am most
! gratified at the unprecedented popularity ol your
4 Luc na Cordial, and am able to near testimony to
us surprising virtue. 1 had a pattern recently,
i ai a gentleman ol fortune, who had lot
several years abandoned himself in the vortex oi
dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at
length by the utter prostration of all his virile ener
gies. He was, indeed, reduced to Ihe last exi rerailj
ot debility and t istelessness, for, if an occasional
flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac
tion was almost frame chute, and the result perlect
prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums
I in such cases ; but, as I had anticipated, without
! success; and when t saw the “Lucina Cordial
advertised, I must confess that even the great weigh:
of your name did not give me much hope in it, t
least so far as regarded the case in hand. I fell
bound to try it, however, and was soon satisfied oi
ns efficacy; for before a bottle was expended in'
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity oi
| his system ; and he is now, having used four bottle*,
I as well ts ever.
The number of documents, such as the above
which have been received by Mr. Magnin s in«tbe
