The following is the la cuage of the com mittee ot the Philadelphia Med cal Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Cllise have effected the permanent and accurate nleation of the in testines in every case of Hern ill observed by the committee, without material ii» rivenience to the patient, and often under trials core severe than are usually ventured upon by tlu ;e who wearcther trusses; trials that would be ii prudent with any other apparatus known to the e« nmittee.” “ The committee are induced by the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in tl ong terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to .t re confidence of the profession, as the best kno\ a means of me chanical retention in hernia, am as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The following is from the ScA hern Medical and Southern Journal, published in ( nr own city. “ All must admit of the radii il cure of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are lecidedly the best yet invented to effect the object. ’ Persons from a distance can ha cthe instruments applied, upon application at tlu- like, and all ne cessary information given to ena le them to adjus it themselves.

A CERTALV CURE FOR THE Itch!! jv 0 article ever introduced to public notice has been found to answer a better purpose , or been more highly ap proved, than the justly celebrated Dumfries’ Itch Ointment.

J£T A Student!—connected with one of our Liter ary institutions, where this loathsome disease had ap peared, observes, that Dumfries'’ hch Ointment ex termi nated it, after various other applications had failed to do so, and it had in consequence gained a reputation in that Seminary, and vicinity, as the best remedy known for the Itch! *** This preparation, for pleasantness, safety, expedi tion, ease and certainty, is unsurpassed, if equalled. It does not contain the least particle of mercury, or other oangerous ingredient, and may be applied with perfect safety bv pregnant females, or to children at the breast, and it cures, however inveterate, in One Hour’s Application only I—And no danger from taking cold. It is also one of the best applications for a humor, in form of a ring-worm, known by the name of the Barbehs’ Iren, a<id is excellent for Pimples, and diseases of the skin generally.

Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and : Swellings in the Joints, &ic., known as Cohen s Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer all poisons suffering from these disea es to the j thousands of cures that his preparation has accom plished, and to the numerous strange and highly 1 respectable testimonials which have, from lime to i 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 arc selected from hundreds of others of a like de- I scription. It will be proper that all persons using I 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, I various empirics have been palmed upon the coun | try, Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and I “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 ol 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 effectually cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined letters from a few who are well and popularly known to the entire society in New \ork, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, 1838. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of your Rheumatic Embrocation,and tie beneficial effects arising therefrom, it affords 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 complaiut, either in its acute or chronic form.

THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so long known, and used with such unparralleled success in the Canadas for the last 30 years, 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 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 1 trying circumstances, namely, “five days,” —the * same success which followed it in a Northern lati . tude still obtains in a more Southern. The formula t or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue r and hazard by M. Cheveves, from the celebrated 1 Indian Chief Wabenothe, or Great Moon, whilst ’ he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu j siness in *the North-west with the Indians. — VV r abenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable * success throughout his two tribes. Its known and t valued virtues have already enriched to an almost incredible extent the children of this w arlike prince, not only by actual sale of the article itself to iu ' 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 r Great Spirit, never to divulge the “ait 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, 1 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 ot 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.

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 subduction of this loathsome malady—and ev ery regular graduate in medicine, will sustain the assertion, that copious diuresis and reduction of in flation, are the only two things necessary to efiect abound and radical cure ’ The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,” is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to affect 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, humor alis, incontinence, and a swarm of other of the most loathsome, perplexing, and disagreeable dis eases, consequent upon erroneous diagnosis and 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.

SPOHN, a German pnysiciar. ot much noie.navmg devolea ms attention lor some years to tne cure and removal of tne causes of N EK VOUS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has thesatis faction to make known, that he has a remedy which by removing the causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many famines who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable tamily complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which tney might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the use »f his remedy. It is the result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different cbai acler from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy lor this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment. That so much suffering should have existed fur 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 which it acts are simple and plain. It is an mitted fact that this complaint, w hether 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 j sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects 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 professional reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States.

When I sent for your Pills I had been troubled with the disease for nearly 6 months, and had tried a great many medicines without any effect.

All are ready 10 ex claim, our souls are sick, our ears are pained with every day’s reports of ills and specifics. This state ol the public mind would seem to forbid any person of delicate mind trom sending forth any new dis coveries in medicine, to the trial of thv 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 ihe author of these bil lers 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 he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby was troubled for many years, but was restored to health by the use of these bitters. This has been the case with many of his friends. Mr. Cosby in sending forth this advertisement, addresses those who know him. He has been for many years a resident ot Augusta, at which place he can at any time b? consulted about the bitters.

Druggists, Hamburg. nov 30 ]y fpilE great celebrityof this unrivalled Compo- B sition,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 t lie appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, w hile swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, &c. &c., 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 days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate casesot w hite swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it m less than two months. 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 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 chafed back and limbs of horses—for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei 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 Oinfm nt,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty.

I write this at the request of your agent here, who furnishes me with the article, and am pleased to have it in my power to award honor to merit. RUFUS K. BEACH, M. D. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 29, 1838. Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was sadly afflicted witn the comp aim that physicians termed a scald head ; and I leared, independent of ever> other evil, that she would be bald in conse quence. By the recommendation, however, of the Reverend Mr. Perrin, 1 applied your ointment to the afflicted part; and 1 thank God that my child is now entirely recovered from the disease, and is getting her hair as fast as can be expected.

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 person Mr. Bo.yle, from whom I used to purchase it, having tailed and gone out of busi ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase ai random, that I may be imposed on by a counterfeit. Your obedient servant, EDWARD RAMSEY, M. D. Cincinnati, August 9,1837. Dr. Harrison. Sir, —1 have no hesitation in stating, in reply to your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly equal to the majority ol the ends for which you re commend it. 1 qualify ray certificate by the word majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in medical matters where 1 have had no experience. In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, w hit lows, piles,&c.,it is mv universal recipe.

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 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 medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in varlou 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 are,lhousands 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, IncipientDiarrhcpa,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 debilitv. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highlv 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 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 I and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great a>c the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them at ten dollars abox 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 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 pecting every day to be her last, your pills were introduced into my family, and so speed}' and pal pable were their effects tiiat 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 ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding its general use, I never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from R al eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen timents of regard, your oh’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upwards 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 any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best physicians, 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 my family have used them with equal success — and consequent!}' I feel it rny duty to apprise you of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as 1 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 llthinst.,l w'as called in great haste to the house of a fellow' citizen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 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 1 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, »f. D. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ j pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi -1 cine, those effects being produced by the differences j of the quantity taken, and are decidedly superior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills. 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 any,griping or nausea. I have prescribed them with much success in sick headache and slight hil lions fever. Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of Burlington, Vt., July 9, 1837. —1 cordially recom mend Peters’ Pills as a mildly effective, and in no case dangerous, family medicine. They are pecu liarly influential in costiveness and all the usual diseases of the digestive organs. Extract of a letter from Dr. Edw. Smith of Mon treal, U. C., Sept. 27,1836. —I never knev a single patent medicine that 1 could put the least conli dence in but Dr. Peters’ Vegetable Pills, which are really a valuable discovery. I have no hesitation in having it known that I use them extensively in my practice,for all complaints, (and they are not a few) which have their source in the impurity of the blood. Extract of a letter from Dr. Dye of Quebec, L. C., March 6, 1837. —For bilious fevers, sick head ache,torpidity of the bow’els, and enlargement of the spleen, Peter’s Pills are an excellent medicine. Extract of a letter from Dr Gurney of New Or leans, La,, Oct, 9, 1837. —1 have received much as sistance in my practice —especially in jaundice and yellow fever, from the use of Peters’ Pills. I pre sume that, on an average, I prescribe 100 boxes in a month Extract of a letter from Dr. Prichard of Hudson, N. Y., June 3, 1836. —1 was aware that Dr. Peters was one of the best chemists in the United States, and felt assured that he would some day (from his intimate knowledge of the properties of herbs and drugs) produce an efficient medicine, and I must acknowledge that his Vegetable Pills fully respond to my expectations. They are indeed a superior medicine, and reflect credit alike upon the Chemist the Physician, and the Philosopher. JjEtiiLOjiUKi co. »a. Feh. 7, 13^7. Having used Dr. Peters’ Pills in my practice for he last twelve months, 1 take pleasure in giving my testimony of their good effects in cases of dys pepsia, sick head-ache, bilious fevers, and other diseases, produced by inactivity of the liver. They are a safe and mild aperient, being the best article of the kind I ever used. GEORGE C. SCOTT M. D. Extract of a letter from Dr. Scott of Baltimore, Dec. 17,1836. —I am in the daily habit of prescri bing them, (Peters’Pills) and they in nearly all cases answered my purpose. I have discarded other medicines, some of them very good ones, in their favor. Charlotte, N.C., Jan. 1, 1837.

Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as to render a supply impossible, dn. posed of the recipe and right ol sale, undero'bligjJ tions of secrecy, for England, t lie United States' and other countries, only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p ug , sussed himself of the invaluable secret; and now i hastens togtvethe inhabitants of his line of agents the benefits of his speculation. “Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, ‘Tiie Lucira Cordial,” isa general invigorator of ifo human frame! In all tbe various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme-’ dy ; as it i* equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor lo the body But the peculiar virtue on which it s J celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty wito which it restores the virile powers when they have been destroved by disease,time, recklessness,oranr i of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a nw cnrial or deleterious nature, among the many injre dients which compose it ; but is, at the same time so simple, yet so efficacious, that wbile it can reno vate the prostrated energies us a giant, an inlm 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, we rannolenlenmo an analy sis ol this ine>iimable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers ol the blessings it has eonterred on num bers of despairing individuals. Bin this wc cannot forbear remarking—that a has been demons! raied that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreant Junctions,in eithersex ; and therefore, that those evils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued and removed by the use ol “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also an indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor AI bus, obstructed, diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ot Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled medicine incases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and in the dropsical affections ol the aged. Most important to the American Public.

To Dr. Magnin, in\ enter of i he Lucina Cordial, or Elixir of Love Respected and Honored Bir;—We have all in a variety of cases, tested the remarkable effects ol your great discovery, and have assembled lor the purpose of bearing evidence to the tacts, and tend ering you the honor which is your due. The “Lucina Cordial” is in our opinion, an infallible remedy lor the prostration of the Procreant Eunc lions, and Artificial Barrenness ; andtherefot* 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 ; and in short, tl r it is one of the noblest medicinal discoveries ol any ago With feelings of admiration and respect wc re main, dear sir, your obed'ent servants, Josselin Bossuit, I Jean Blanc, Eigisraond de la Marline, j Robert Stevenson, Adrien Decrand, I Louis Ouiseau, Octave Nicolt, | Pierre Buffen Extract of e letter from the elebraled Talleyrand, to Dr. Magnin. 1 am now on the wrong side of eighty, and yet 1 could be on my honor or oath if necessary, that a j bottle or two of your Cordial of Love has made me (eel as vigorous as a boy of five and twenty. I think you have discoveted the “Elixir of Life,’ which the alchy mists have been so long in quest oi; ant! that (pardon my officiousness,; you should have named it accordingly. From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, J 837. To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mos gratified at (be unprecedented popularity ot your “Luc.'na Cordial,” and arn able to hear testimony lo its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, i M . a gentleman ol fortune, who had lur several years abandoned himsell in the vortex or 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 extremity of debility and tastelessness, for, if an occasional Hash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost imnudmie,and the result perlect prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases; but, as 1 had anticipated, without 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 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 bottle was expended, mV patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of his system ; and he is now, having used four hollies, as weilta 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.
