Cl OHEN’S RHEUMATIC EMBROCATION.— J 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 1 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 I 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 trj', Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and “Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be- I ing a compound of ignorant quacks, arc calculated, i more or less, to injure the system rather than re- S 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 I\- cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined letters from a few who are well ami popularly | known to the entire society in New York, and j whose opinions ami professional judgments axe universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. 275$ Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, IS3B. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of your Rheumatic Embrocation, and tte beneficial effects arising therefrom, it affords me pleasure to state thatl 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.

THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so long known, and used with such unparrallcled success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap pears to need no panegyric. Its operation upon the human system is such that it invariably acts like a charm, for the relief and ladical 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, “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 Wabesotiie, 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 wail ike 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. p 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. 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 Ottowaand 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.

There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable lamiiy complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they ore mistaken, and labouring under distress which tney- might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the os? if bis remedy. It is the result of scientific research, and isentirely of a different chaiacterfrom advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for (his 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. 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 admitted 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, lhat th 3 sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, 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 ihe headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact. Toe remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY A HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 ffIHE great celehrityof this unrivalled Compo- B silion,especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor hut 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 sores,chilblains, white 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 flays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases of w bite swelling that can be ima gir ed. have been destroyed by it m less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi cacy is indy 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 ling the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed hack 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 at, least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Ointm-lit,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty.

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 tbai 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 arc 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 kinl has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thm are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there aie.lhou sands 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 Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costivcnes.s, 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 debilitv. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d, 183 S: 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 3'ou 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 aK the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house without them. I w ill not enumerate lire alfiictions 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. 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 gra\e. She w T as 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 ail 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, jour pills were introduced into m3' family', and so speedy and pal pable were their effccJLs that three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less than three months she was I perfectly restored to health. This case, I and all ; who were witness of it, (but more especially the i suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to ; miraculous; and yet 1 could mention man3' more I of an equall3 r 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 3'our medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country ? But this 1 presume you know from the immense quantity 30a dispose of. 1 ma3 r mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain j 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, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing — though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me an3' thing like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, Dy one of our best j»hy slcians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used ‘ two boxes when I found that they had restored me ! to perfect health. Since then, various members of ! m3' family have used them with equal success — and consequently 1 feel it m3' duty to apprise 3ou of the fact, and to request of 3'ou to publish this certificate, as 1 am anxious to add m3' public testi ! 100113- to the almost miraculous virtues of your un- I rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAMES, i Augusta, Ga., Feb 10,1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. 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 chizen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of i Cynanche Tracncalis (Croup) and apparently he ; 3'ond the aid of rened3'. By the greatest good for tune, however, 1 had in my pocket a broken box of your pills—four of which 1 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 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform you that your inestimable medicine is in such great j favor with the facult3' here, that I believe there is i not one of them who does not use it in his private i practice.

Extract from a letter written-by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, 11. 1., Dec. 17, IS3S.—Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences of the quantity taken, and are decidedly supeiior j to Lee’s, Brandrcth’s or Morrison’s Pills.

In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vi» o r to the body. But the peculiar virtue on which “it* celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores Hie virile powers when they have be»n destroyed by disease, time, recklessness, or an r of the numerous causes which terminate in th e prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a n er. curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it; but is, at the same time so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno’ v ate 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 ben. fits which would be sure to result from it, we cannot enter into an analy sis ol this ine ttmabie Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings it has conferrcdon num bers of despairingindividuals. But this wccannot forbear remarking—that it. has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at ail, 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 be speedily subdued «ud removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn induhiiable 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.

To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l arn mos gratified at Ihe unprecedented popularity 0 f y a( jr “Luc iia Cordial,” and am able to .4ear testimony to ) its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, i M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lot several years abandoned himself in the vorter. 01 dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of all his virileener- , gies. He was,indeed, reduced to the fast extremity ‘ ot debility and Ustelessness. lor, if an occasional j j flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac- ? lion was almost immediate.and the result perfect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases; but, as I had anticipated, w.thout | success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucina Cordial’’ advertised, i must confess that even the great weight of your name did not give me much hope 111 it, at least so far as regarded 1 lie cose in hand. I fell bound lo try it,however,and was soon satisfied ol its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, tnv patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity his system ; and he is now, h<t\ mg used four bottle*! , as vveilts ever.
