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 j standing, and of an obstinate nature, tliat it has never been known to fail. The following letters arc selected from hundreds of others of a like de- I scriptlon. It will be proper that all persons using |he Liniment, see that it is accompanied w T ith 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 BBeurnatic 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 elfectua 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. iM.

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 ‘dlls 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, “live 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 Ills 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 lie 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 >l. Chcveret, 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 Ottoxvaand Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white friend M. Chcveret, (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.

There are many families w ho have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint- Dr. 8. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which tnoy might not onlv alleviate, but actually eradicated by the use »f his remedy. It is I he result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICIv 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 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. 8. 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 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 lias become vitiated or dehihtaieu, ihiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of ihe natural and healthy fund ions ol the system. This object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. 'l’he truth of this position cannot be controverted, and Ihe sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spoim pledges his prrfessionai reputation on this fact.

Indeed the’speed and certainly of ils operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles, piles,spider and snake bites, Ac.

Thus, it prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a hiie.in live days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate casesof swelling that can be ima go id. have been destroyed by it in less than two monlhs. 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 the y will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervading the system. Il is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the I chakd hack and limbs of horses—for tetters, ring j worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every exter nal bodily evil that may fall to the lot of man or beast.

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 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 elfccts. The certificates that have been presented to the propiiptor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of live hundred of which arc from regular practising physicians, whe are the most competent judges of thcii 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 thin are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there aie.lhouiands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they have a supply always on hand. !

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake Countv, No Ca ,March 3d, 1838: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, —By requestor your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your piPs; 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 a>e the benefits we havereceiv i ed from them in general, that I would rather pur i | chase them alien dollars a box than have my house , | without them. I will not enumerate ihe afflictions they have relieved us of; but I can assure you they I were many, and of very opposite natures, which , | has fully proved to me that your medicine isasim , ! pie purifier of the system, and therefore equally , j the enemy disease. I will mention one case. 1 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. I She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but all their elicits to restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer -1 lugs were fruitless ; and accordingly,we all consid ; ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good ! fortune, however, as she w r as 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 -1 lieved her, and in less than three months she was 1 perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all . who were witness of it, (but more especially the sulfering party,) considered to be the next thing to I miraculous; and yet I could mention many more . of an equally desperate nature, in which yourpills f 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 1 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 elfccts. My residence is I2miles from Jiai » eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. 1 am, with sen : t intents of regard, your ob’t servant. ; A. G.

At length, how - i ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one > of our best ph\sicians, and lam most grateful and [ j happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used ■ two boxes when 1 found that they had restored me • to perfect health. Since tiicn, various members of - ; my family have used them with equal success — i and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise ycu I of the fact, and to request of you to publish this 1 certilicate, as lam anxious to add my public testi • mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your im- I rivalled medicine.

Until the appearance of the “ Enema Cor dial,’’ (about three years since,) it was thought ih i the complaints, which it speedily overcomes were beyond the reach of human remedy, as i ur unvvar 1 of'a thousand years. they had baffled the wisdom a„d ingenuity of lie most prof,pl,j. s j ci „ „ all pans ol the world. This Cordial, however u, the great advantage of the human race,soon proved itself to be the desideratum so long sought for • i d accordingly, notwithstanding tl e hriel peri d of rm existence, it has required a celebrity so great that it is eagerly inquired for throughout ihe civilized globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as to render a supply impossib'e dr posed of the recipe and right ol'sale, under oblFa lions of secrecy, for England, the United States and olhei countries, only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p OB . sessed himself of iheinvalunble secret; end n t , w hastens to give the inhabitants of hisliaeof agents the benefits of his speculation. “Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “ fno Lueina Cordial.” is a general imigorator of ih e human frame ! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing rime.’ dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, os health and vigor to ihe body But the peculiar virtue on which celebrity is based, is the facility and certainly with which it restores the virile powers when thev have been destroyed by disease.lime,recklessness,orany of ihe numerous causes which terminate in tue prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a mer curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it ; bulis, al ilie same inne so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an mfan 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 f rom it, we cannot enter into an analy sis of this ine-limable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings n has conferred on num bers of despairing individuals. But tr is wc cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, it any such Bung at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of ihe procreant fund ions, in either sex ; and therefore, that these’evils are the effects oi artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued «.nd removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” i he Lueina Cordial is also in indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Aibus, 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 incases of Chronic EruptionsolTheskin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged. Most imp riant io the American Public.

From ihe eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin;—My dear friend—l am mos gratified at ihe unprecedented popularity of your “Luc na Cordial,” and am able io hear testimony to its surprising virtue. J had a patient recently 1.1: , a gentleman ot fortune, who had lor several years abandoned himself in the vortex oi dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it • c length by the utter prostration of all his virile ener g es. He was,indeed,reduced to the last extremity of debility and l istelessncss. f or, 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 nostrums in such cases ; but, as I had anticipated, vv.thont success; and when 1 saw the “Lueina Cordial” advertised, 1 musi confess that even the great weight of your name did not give me much hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I Veit bound to try it, however, and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, my patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of bis system.; and lie is now, having used four bcillts, as well is ever. The number of documents, such as the above which have been received bv Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “ Le Cordial tie Lucine,” would fill a volume as large as the Bible.
