Cohen,proprietor of the universally celebrated lotion for the cure of Chronic and Infla matory Rheumatism, Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and Swellings in the Joints, kc., 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 T '.ich 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 w riting. 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 wirich 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 York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. 275$ Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, 1838. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of your Rheumatic Embrocation,aud tbe beneficial effects arising therefrom, it attbrdvS me pleasure to state that I most cheerfully recommend it as an invaluable remedy, and the best known for the cure of that painful and distressing complaint, either in its acute or chronic form.

CINQ JOUES, OR ' ANTi-BALSAMIC GONORRHOEAL SOLUTION, Warranted to cure in Five Days. I’M'IHIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so X long known, and used with such unparralleied success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap pears to need no pane&vric;. 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 Wasenothe, 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 ahnost 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 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 M. Cheveret, 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 in preparing the article for im mediate use. TRANSLATION. “I, Wabenoshe, Chief of the nations Ottowa and Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white friend M. Cheveret, (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 X mark.

Its first and prominent virtue is to subdue every vestige of inflamation, and then acts mildly and copiously as a diuretic; thereby holding within itself, every requisite virtue, for the subduclion of this loathsome malady —and ev ery regular graduate in medicine, will sustain the assertion, that copious diuiosis and reduction of in flation, arc the only two things necessary toetlect abound and radical cure The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,” is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to alfect a cure, none of those tenacious and disagree - able consequences which almost invariably results from the sudden cure of Gonorrhoea, have been known to obtain such as stricture, hernia, hutnoi alis, incontinence, and a swarm of other of the most loathsome, perplexing, and disagreeable dis eases, eonsequent upon erroneous diagnosis ami treatment of Gonorrhoea. Those affected are requested to call and try for themselves. If the prescriptions are well follow ed and fail to cure, the money will in every case be returned.

'Phis stale 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 know n real discoveries, which we are con fident will benefit our fellow men. This latter consideration has prompted ihe author of these bit ters to make them known. He knows they are high ly efficacious, for he himself, his w ife, and many friends, h ive given them a thorough trial. He was himsell a confirmed dyspeptic,so much, that even his recollection was gone. By using these hitters he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby was troubled for many years, but vmis restored to health by the use ol these bitters. This has been the case with many ol his frif nds. 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 time b« consulted about the bitters. They are good in all cases of diseases of the digestive organs, the symp toms of w hich are indigestion, pain or oppression in the stomach from food, lossol appetite, flatulen cy, heart burn, giddiness in the head, pain in the side, shortness of breath, lassitude, general weak ness, distuibed sleep, Ac The compilation is en tirely Botanical, and has proved efficacious \\ hen many celebrated medicines had failed.

There are many families who have considered s>ick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, ai-d labouring under distress which tncy might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the us- >f his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different chaiacter from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation lhat Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so m tch suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventiv ;, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public lhat 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 milted 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 th’sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol ihe natural and healthy functions ol 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 prrfessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY A HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 rpHE great celebrityof this unrivalled ('ompo- I sit ion, especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor: for it lias been generally conceded to it,that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever -sores,chilblains, w hile swellings, biles, piles,spider and snake bites, Ac. Ac., 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 nays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima git ed, have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In ihe 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 perva ting the s>stem 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 extei nal bodily evil lhat 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 which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty.

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 of your oint ment, and the pereou Mr. Boyle,from whom I used to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of busi ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I may he imposed on by a counterfeit. Your obedient servant, EDWARD RAMSEY, M. D. Cincinnati, August 9,1837. Dr Harrison.

They have passed away from the 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 tha* 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 five hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, why are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by Hus medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in variou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth he asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin 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, F%verand Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, tuck Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, J-iles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, 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 pil’s; 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 of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great arc the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them al ten dollars abox than have my house without them. 1 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 pect ng every day to be her last, y r our pills were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal pable were their effccls that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly'restored to health. This case, I and all w'ho w'ere witness of it, (but more especially' the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to miraculous; and yet J could mention many' more of an equally' desperate nature, in which your pills w'ere 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 -1 eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. 1 am, with sen- I timeots of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward" of fifteen months, I have been ciuelly 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 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 ' my family have used them with equal success — I and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you 1 of the fact, and to request of you to publish this I certificate, as I am anxious to add rny public testi i mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your mi< i rivalled medicine.

States, that he has purchased, fur a very large sum and from I lie in ventor, ■he celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris hia recipe ar d ri-ffii for making tins astonishing medi cine Until Ihe appearance of Ihe “ Lucina Cor dial,’ (about three years since,) it was thought that the complaints, which it speedily overcomes, were beyond I he reach of human remedy as for upwards of a thousand ytnrs. they had baffled the wisdom and ingenuity of the most profound physicians in all parts of the world. This Cordial, however, to the great advantage of the human race,soon proved itseil to be the desideratum so long sought for ; and accordingly, notv\ ithsiandirg tl e brief peri d of its existence, it has required a celebrity so great, thst it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as o render a supply impossible, dis posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under obliga lions of secrecy, fer England, the United States, and othei countries, only preserving France arid Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber pos sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and now hastens togivethc inhabitants of his line of agents, the benefits of his speculation. “Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “rho Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the human frame ! In all ihe various Cases of languor, lassitude, amt debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful, ness and decision to ihe mind, as health and vigor to the body. Bui the peculiar virtue on which its celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which if restores the virile powers when they have been deatroved by dis< ase.lime, recklessness,or any of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, thisC o-.dial contains nothing of a mer curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients w'hich compose it ; but is, al the same tune, so simple, yet so t fficacious, that while it can reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an mfan may use it,not only with impunity, but w ith ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding the bem fits which would be sure to result from it, we cannot enter into an analy sis ol this incc lfinable Cordial here,or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num bers of despairing individuals. But this vve cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that t here 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 the seevils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued «nd removed by the use ol “ I.e Cordial cie Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also in indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus,obstructed, diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon linenct ol Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled medif ine in cases of Chronic Eruptions olTheskin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged. Most imp riant to the American Public. The United States proprietor of the celebrated “ Lucina Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to lay befixo the community, the billowing certificate, wtieh he has received from llie inventor, the illus trious Dr. Magnin. of Paris “ T hi v is to certily,lhat I have disposed of the recipe for making the “ Luc.na Cordial,” or ► “ Elixir of Love,” and also the right to sell it throughout the t mted States of North America, to John Winters liolderw e11,.'1 D. My reasons for so doing is, that the demands to me forthe above Cordial, of which lam the inventor, are so nume rous, that 1 am unable to supply all the orders from France and Bal\ alone; am] have therefore dispo sed of the privileges vouchsafed intlus, and other certificates ol a like nature in order to generalise the benefits ol my discovery throughout the world.

From an immense number of testimonials from I the regular faculty, touching the virtues of the Cordial, 1 have in particular selected the following, w hich may be of use to you. Y'ou will also find a number of others of less importance inclosed. This immediate cert ficate is from a body of eight of the ablest medical practitioners in France. To Dr. Magnin, in\ enter of i he Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love Respected and Honored t>ir: —We have all in a variety of cases, tested the remarkable effects ol your great discovery, and have assembled lor ihe purpose of bearing evidence to the lads, and lend | ermg you the honor which is your due The “Lucina Cordial” is in our opinion, an infallible remedy lor the prostration of the Procreant rune lions, and Artificial Barrenness : and thereto. - must prove a blessing to the human race. We ca also bear evidence that there is nothing in it of a mer curial or deleterious nature ; anti in short, tl r il is one of the noblest medicinal discoveries ofany ago W ith feelings of admiration and respect wc re main, dear sir, your obed ent servants, Jojtselin Buasun, j Jean Blanc, Sigismond de !a Marline, ( Robert Stevenson, ■ Adrien I Louis Ouiseau, Octave Ntcolfc, J Pierre Huffen Extract ofer letter from the elebrated Talleyrand, to Dr. Magoin. 1 am now on the wrong side of eighty, and yet 1 could be on rny honor or oath if necessary, that a bottle or two of your Cordial of Love has made me feel as vigorous as a boy of five and twenty. I think you have discoveied the “Fflixtr of Life,’ which the alchy mists have been so long in quest of; am. that (pardon my officiousness,; you should have named it accordingly, f From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mos gratified at the unprecedented popularity of your “Lucina Cordial,” and am able to bear testimony to its surprising virtue. I had a patient recently, 1 M . a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor 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 the last extremily of debility and i.istelessness. for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate, and the result perfect prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums in such ca?es ; but, as I had anticipated, without success; and when i saw the “Lucina Cordial” advertised, 1 must confess that even the great weight of your name did net give me much hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound to try it,however,and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a buttle was expended, my patient gaveevidence of the returning elasticity of his system ; and he is now, having Used four bottles, 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 fill a volume as large as the Bible.
