MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO —a suostitute 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 j wish to know T , by any of the agents keeping them i for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx i iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme I North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more aosuru 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 , j profess to bo, and will do for otheis what they have done for such us 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 Y r ellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much j 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 j anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wish'l 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 one thousand and one cure-alls of the 1 day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.c anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we leam, will soon be in , this city. We all know something about this, june IS ' ts Radical Cure ol llernia or Rupture, by Dr. Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses. TBIIIE subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug J_ store of Messrs, J. J. Robertson & Co., forthe 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 useoi these Trusses, besides many 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 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 Medical and Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia and that Dr. ( base’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon applicatun at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjust I it themselves. The poor, who are laboring unde? this afflicting complaint, will be treateStuitous ly upon presenting a certificate, from someresnonsi l ble person, of their pecuniary disability p * 1 The instruments are of all sizes, and apuPohl# i to every variety of reducible rupture v ‘ e f«b 20 FM. ROBERTSON, M. D. ] O. COSBY’S DYSPEPTIC BITTERS* PERHAPS there is nothing more calculated to disgust the public eye than the innumerable i advertisements of nostrums that are constantly ap- j pearing in the public prints. All are ready to ex- j claim,our souls are sick, our ears are pained with } every day’s reports of ills and specifics Tkis state | nt the public mind would sefem to forbid any person f of delicate mind from sending forth any new <bs- , 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 fident will benefit our fellow men. This latter ( .consideration has prompted the author of these bi i tere to make them known. He knows they are high ly efficacious, for he himself, his wife, and many 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 I he has been restored to health. Mir. Cosby was troubled for many years,but was restored to health by the use of these bitters. This has been the case 1 with many of his frwnds. Mr. Cosby in sending 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 lime be consulted about the bitters. They are good in all cases of diseases of the digestive organs, the symp toms of which are indigestion, pain or oppression in the stomach from food, lossot appetite, flatulen cy, heart burn, giddiness in the head, pain in the side, shortness of breath, lassitude, general weak ness, disturbed sleep, «Scc The composition is en tirely Botanical, and has proved efficacious w hen many celebrated medicines had failedln support of which he refers thorn to Freeman W. Lacy, she riff of Richmond countv, and William T.

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 same success which followed it in a Northern lati tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula 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 success throughout his two tribes. Its known and valued virtues have already enriched to an almost incredible extent the children of this warlike prince, 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 in the hands of every Indian who rely with, I ma3 r 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 M. Che veret, when he purchased the original recipe, and had twice assisted the Chief himself through the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture. Few white men would credit the length of time which is consumed »n preparing the article for im mediate use. TRANSLATION. “I, Wabenoshe, Chief of the nations Ottowaand Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white friend M. Che veret, (for he has done many good things for me and my people,) I give to him my greatest cure for the bad sickness which my children have had sent among them as a punishment by the Great Spirit, and hope that in his hands it may do much good, and make him very rich.” Signed WABINOSHE,his mark.

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 tncy 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 mot unpleasant to the laste. 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 ra ich suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventivor 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 a< milled 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 lh“ sys tem has become vitiated or debihtaled, thiough ihe stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of jhe naiural and healthy functions oi the system. Tins object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will jheir 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.

Indeed the,speed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, weuuds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, 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 l*eal a bile in live days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most I desperale casesot white swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it m less than two months. In the bites of poisonous repiiles 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 chated 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 it least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Ointm nt,” upwards of a hundred of winch were written by respectable members of the Medical faculty.

They have passed away from l* l ® , hundreds that are 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 arc 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 five hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this median been the subject of editorial comment, in vai ion newspapers and journals; and it may with truth e 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 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 Billious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Rowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,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 request of 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 ape'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 enumeraie 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 wore 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 P 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 3 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 the}' had restored me to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success — and consequent!)' I feel it my duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as I am 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 (Croup) 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 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. Yours most resp’y. March 13, 1839. J. H. IRWIN, M. D. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R.

States, thut he h* purchased, for a very large sum and from the in ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris recipe ard right for making this astonishing medf cine. Until the appearance of the“ Luci na Cor dial,'’ (about three years since,) it was thought that the complaints, which it speedily overcomes « P r« beyond the reach of human remedy, as for upward of e thousand ytars. they had hafflpd t h e wisdom and ingenuity of the profound physicians in all parts of the world. This Cordial, however to the g,eat advantage of the human race,soon proved itself to be the desideratum so long sought for; and accordingly, notwithstanding the brief peri ,d of jig existence, it has required a celebrity so great, that it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as io render a supply impossible, dig. posed of the recipe ami right oi sale, under «blig a * lions of secrecy, f»r England, the United Statea and other countries, only preserving Franco Italy for himself. Thus has the subscribe,- p og . sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and now hastens to give the inhabitants of his line of agency the benefits of his speculation. “le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “th e Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the human frame! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reta e .’ dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful, ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body. But the peculiar virtue on which it 8 celebrity is based, is the facility and eerlainty with which it restores the virile powers when they have been destroyed by disease,time,recklessness,orany of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really gpod medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a mer curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dtents which compose it; but is, at the same time, so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an infant may use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding the benefits which would be sure to result from it, weeannotenterintoan analy sis of this inestimable Cordial here,or publish many of Ihe documents which have been received, aj vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num bers of despairingiiidividuals. But this we cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreant functions, in either sex; and therefore, that these evils are the effects of artificial causes, and may he speedily subdued and removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also an indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus, 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 of the aged. Most important to the American Public. The United States proprietor of the celebrated “ Lucina Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to lay before the community, the following certificate, w hich he has received from the inventor, the illus trious Dr. Magnin. of Paris .- “ Thri is to certify, that I have disposed of the recipe for making the “Lucina Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” and also the right to sell it throughout the I ni!t>d States of North America, to John Winters Holderwell, M.

My reasons for so doing is, that the demands to meforthe above Cordial, of which I am the inventor, are so nume rous, that 1 am unable to supply all the orders from Franceund Italy alone; and have therefore dtspe eed of the privileges vouchsafed in this, and other certificates of a like nature in order to generalise the benefits of my discovery throughout the world.

From an immense number of teslirnonials from the regular faculty, touching the virtues of the Cordial, I have in particular selected the following which may be of use to you. You will also find a number of others of less importance inclosed. Thii immediate certificate is from a body of eight of the ablest medical practitioners in France.

Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mo» gratified at the unprecedented popularity ol your ‘Luc?na Cordial,” and am able to hear testimony U) its surprising virtue. I had a patient receqfi/. * ™ i a gentleman ol fortune, who had lot several years abandoned himself in the vortex ot dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of all his virile eoer was ’ ‘"deed, reduced to the last extremity ol debility and tastelessness, for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate, and the result perfect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrum* in such cases; but, as I had anticipated, without success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucina Cordial” Mvertised, I must confess that even the great weigh* of your name did not give me much hope in it, 8t least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound to try it, however, and was soon satisfied ol its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, ro J patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity ot his system ; and he is now, having used four bottle*, as well is ever. The number of documents, such as the above which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “Le Cordial de Lucine.” would fil t_ a volume as large as the Bible.
