it as an invaluable remedy, and the best known for

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 absuiu
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 ho'ds himself bound, and in honor pledg
ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they
profess to be. and 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 w r as it
ascertain! d that they contained alterative and diu
retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use
the prepaiution 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 one thousand and one cure-alls of the
day. Ifjou wish to cleanse the system with a
mild, saie anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato
Pill, of which a supply, we leam, will soon be in
this city. We aH know something about this.

Radical Cure ol Herma or Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
THE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug
store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson &Co., forthe
treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of thest
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 man\
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 th(
Radical Cure of Hernia.
“The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected
the permanent and accurate retention of the in
testines in every case of Hernia observed by tht
committee, w ithout material inconvenience to the
patient, and often under trials more severe that
are usually ventured upon by those who wearothei
trusses; trials that would be imprudent with anj
o f her 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 ol
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 Medical and
Southern Journal, published in our own city.
j adilQ * t °* the radical cure of hernia
and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the besl
yet in vented 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 adjusj
R themse ves. The poor, who are laboring unde
this afflicting complaint, will be treated eramitous
ly upon presenting a certificate, from someresnonsi
ble person, of their pecuniar}'disability. *
The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable
to every variety of reducible rupture,

O. COSBY’S DYSPEPTIC BITTERS.
PERHAPS there is nothing more calculated Jo
disgust the public eye than the innumerable
advertisements ol nostrums that are constantly ap-
J pearing in the public prints. All are ready to ex
. claim,onr souls are sick, our ears are pained with
. every day’s reports of ills and specifics. This state
of the public mind would seem to forbid any person
' of delicate mind from sending forth any new dis
coveries in medicine, to the trial of the public.
Still, motives of delicacy should not prevent us from
* making known real discoveries, which we are con
: fidetit will benefit our fellow men. This latter
5 consideration has prompted the author of these hit
> tere to make them known. He knows they are high
! ly efficacious, for he himself, his wife, and many
5 friends, have given them a thorough trial. He was
’ himself a confirmed dyspeptic, so much, that even
his recollection was gone. By using these bitters
; he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby was
• troubled for many years,but was restored to health
, by the use of these bitters. This has been the case
■ with many of his friends. Mr. Cosby in sending
1 forth this advertisement, addresses those who know
■ him. Ho has been for many years a resident of
, Augusta, at which place he can at any time be
■ consulted about the bitters. They are good in all
i cases of diseases of the digestive organs, the syrap
i tome of which are indigestion, pain or oppression
; in the stomach from food, lossot appetite, flatulen
r cy, heart burn, giddiness in the head, pain in the
1 side, shortness of breath, lassitude, general weak
r ness, disturbed sleep, &c The composition is en

son, editor of the Augusta Mirror, and he might re
fer you to many others, hut deems it unnecessary,
as he is willing to place it on its own merits. All

CINQ JOURS,

ANTI-BALSAMIC GONORRHCEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
rpHIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
, A long known, and used with such unparralleled
success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap
i pears to need no panegyric. Its operation upon the
; human system is such that it invariably acts like
a charm, for the relief and radical cure of a certain
common and disagreeable “ills the flesh is heir to.”
This prize obtains its own name from the certain
success which has attended it through all of its
; trying circumstances, namely, “five days,”—the
t same success which followed it in a Northern lati
-1 tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula
t or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue
and hazard by M. 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. —
> Wabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable
t success throughout his two tribes. Its known and
l valued virtues have already enriched to an almost
■ incredible extent the children of this warlike prince,
I not only by actual sale of the article itself to in
dividuals, but by parting with copies of his receipt
at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe of
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 m the hands of every Indian who rely
with, I may say, religious confidence on its cura
ble powers.
Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can
be anglisized of the deed given by Wabenoshe, to
s M. Cheveret, when he purchased the original recipe,
i and had twice assisted the Chief himself through
. the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture.
r Few white men would credit the length of time
, which is consumed in preparing the article for im
; mediate use.

DR. E. SPOITN, a German physician of much
note, having devoted his attention for some
years io ihe 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 iney might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the use rs 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 compaint is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much 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 which it acts are simple and plain. It is
an a. mitted fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach—those who think ihey have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that this
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th a sys
tem has become vitiated or debihiated, thiough the
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of ihe 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
professional reputation on this fact. The remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United States.

fpHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo
i sition,especially m t 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'speed and certainty of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wouuds,
corns, fever sures,chilhlains, white swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake bites, &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 five days, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer m 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—lor tetters, ring
worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei
nal bodily evil that may fail to the lot of man or
beast.
The proprietor has received at least a thousand
certificates, and other documents, in favor of his
“ Specific Ointimnt,” upwards of a hundred of
which were written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.

To Dr. Harrison.
Sir—l use your 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. 1 write this
at the request of your agent here, who furnishes me
with the article, and am pleased to have it in my
power to award honor to merit.

Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was
sadly afflicted witn the comp aim that physicians
termed a scald head ; and 1 feared, independent 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 chikf is
now entirely recovered from the disease, and is
getting her hair as fast as can be expected. The
cure was effected in lather less than two months ;
during which time I used fiv dollars worth of oint
ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
during the previous three years, without any benefit
whatever.

I hereby substantiate the truth ot the above

Dear Sir—l have to request of you to forwaOd
me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most
immediate conveyance, and without regard to the
expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much
in want of it.—You know my estimation of your
valuable discovery, and therefore I shall only add
that further experience has increased my enthusi

perior to any remedy extant for external diseases.

Dr. Harrison.
Sir- The virtues of your Specific Ointment,have
been long known to me, as I have used none other
in my rather exiensive practice tor several years, and
if you think it would be to your advantage, I can
furnish you with twenty certificates of important
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 twenty
onedays. 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 0 f VOU r oint
ment, and the person Mr. Boyle,from whom I used
to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of busi

may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

'HESE Pills are no longer among those of doubt-
A ful utility. They have passed away from the
hundreds that arc daily launched upon the tide of
experiment, and now stand before the public 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 propiietor exceed
twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges of their merits.
} Often have the cures performed by this medicin
been the subject of editorial comment, in variou
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.
They are in general use as a family medicine
and there aj*e t 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
Billious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver
Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma,

Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn,

and Rowels, IncipientDiarrhoea,Flatulence.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 They are
exceedingly mild in their operation, producing
neither nausea, griping nor 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, I send you a few lines respecting the
almost miraculous effects of your pißs; 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 I and my
family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three
years ; and so great are the benefits we have 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 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
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
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 upward® of fifteen
months, I 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 (Cronp) 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 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 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 .riio 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

of the quantify taken, and are decidedly superior
to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

In common with the generality of really to |

lo Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mo
gratified at the unprecedented popularity of J Ol
“Lucina Cordial,’ and am able to hear testimony
its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recent"
I M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had if
several years abandoned himself in the vortex 11
dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it
length by the utter prostration of all his virileeoer
gies. He was, indeed, reduced to the last exirenu 1 '
of debility and tastelessness, for, if an occasion*
flash of excitement warmed his system, the to®
tion was almost immediate, and the result petit
prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostn*
in such coses; but, as 1 had anticipated, win ll
success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucina Cordiß;
advertised, I must confess that even the great we l f
of your name did not give me much hope in i l ’ *
least so far as regarded the case in hand. I j'
bound to try it,however,and was soonsatUfi^
its efficacy; for before a bottle was expend'
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity/
his system; and he is now, having used four bofa*
