COHEN’S RHEUMATIC EMBROCATION.— Dr. M. B. Cohen, proprietor of the universally celebrated lotion for the cure of Chronic and Infla matory Rheumatism. Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and Swellings in the Joints, &c., known as Cohen’s Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer all persons suffering from these disea es to the thousands of cures that his preparation has accom plished, and to the numerous strange and highly respectable testimonials which have, from time to time, been published to that effect in New York and other places. So certain and searching is this Liniment in its operations, even in cases of long standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has never been known to fail. The following letters are selected from hundreds of others of a like de scription. It will be proper that all persons using he Liniment, see that it is accompanied with the signature of the proprietor in his own hand writing. Since the introduction of this remedy to the public, various empirics have been palmed upon the coun try, Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and “Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated, more or less, to injure the system rather than re move any complaint. In proof of the estimation in which the Embrocation is held by respectable men in the medical profession, as well as by the thousands of persons who have been effectua ly cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined letters from a few who are well and popularly known to the entire society in New Y'ork," and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed.

The formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by M. Cheveves, 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. — VVabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable success throughout his two tribes. Its known and valued virtues have already enriched to an a most 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 lereipt 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 tlveir respective tribes, w’hich places it in the hands of every Indian who rely with, 1 may say, religious contidence 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. Chevcret, when he purchased the original recipe, and had twice assisted the Chief himself through the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture.

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 inoy might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the us 1 - if his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different chaiacler from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation ihat Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing oorapaint 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 iruly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince Ihe most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. Itis an a milted fact that this complaint, whether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach s —those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that ihis organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th'-sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, tlnough ihe stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of ihe natural and healihy functions of the system. 'I Ins object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminentJy calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers wiih ihe headache become convinced of it, ihe sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his pr* fessionai reputation on this fact.

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca ,March 3d, 1S38: 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 w ould 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 year* ; and so great ai*e 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 therefoie 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 pillo 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 tp health. This case, 1 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 equa'ly 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, how r ever, that notwithstanding 1 its general use, I never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Rai -1 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 s of fifteen months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find notlring— though I had applied to every thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At length, how r ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best phj sicians, and I am most grateful and j 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 — 1 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. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia; i Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th inst.,l was called in great haste to the house of a fellow’ ci.izen, (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, 1 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 1 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, Francis Bo gart, of Providence, K. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the ditferefines of the quantity taken, and are decidedly superior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills, i 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, it J any, griping or nausea.
