Us operation upon the human system is such that it invariably acts like a charm, for 'he 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 sueecss 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.— Wabcnoshe 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, hut by parting wilh copies of his rereipt 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 111 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 Wahcnosbe, to M.C'licveret.wlien lie 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.

MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO—a substitute for Calomel, and dues nut belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component parts arc made known to tho faculty, or any one else that may wish to know, by any of the agents keeping them for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme Noith has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more absurd than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for the great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and in honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to he, and will do for otheis what they have done for such as mav have used them ; as this is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless he valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatinc, or active principle, and when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the system in much better condition than the other kind 1 many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished foi a substitute. It has long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, hut not until of late was it aicertaincd that they contained alterative and diu retic properties. The Faculty embrace and use the preparation most cheerfully, for the reason that they know’ what it is Were it a patent mystery, they would he bound to reject the medicine, as they justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the day. If you wish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we lean;, will soon be in this city.

Robertson & Co., forth? treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly celebrated instruments. Ho has now used them for nearly a year, and, did not delicacy forbid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many 1 others who arc in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of lire com mittee of the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wearother trusses; trials that would he imprudent with any other apparatus known to the committee.” “ The committee are induced by the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to the conlidenee of the profession, as the best known means of me chanical retention in hernia, and as furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” The following is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in cur own city. “ All must admit of the radical cure of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance ran have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjus( it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,from someresponsi ble person,of ttieir pecuniary disability.

That so m ich suffering should have existed forages without any discovery of an effectual prevenliv i, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret hut Dr. S. now assures the public that such a n medy has been invented us will convince the must credulous. The ;>rinciplos on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milled 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, thot lh» sys tem has hccume vitiated or debilitated, thiuugh the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol the naiural and healthy functions of the system. ’l'hts'object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers wiihiho headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his prcfessionai reputation on this fact.

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 requestof your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of your pil's; and I would a-’d, that you may make use ol them,in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, 1 speak of their merits from experience, as I and my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great are the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 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; hut 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 pills 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 to health. This case, 1 and all who were witness of it, (hut 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 1 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 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, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though I 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 phj sicians, and I 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 i,ave used them with equal success — 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: Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of the 11th inst., I was called in great Jtaste to the house of a fellow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynancbe 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 I 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 I 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 docs not use it in his private practice. Yours most resp’y. March 13, 1839. J. H. IRWIN, M. D. Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838.—Peters’ pills arc an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences 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 arc apeculiarly mild,yet efficient purgative medicine, and produce little, if any, griping or nausea. 1 have prescribed them with much success in sick headache and slight bil 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.

States, thel he has purchased, for a very large sum and from the in ventor, the celebrated Dr. Mngnin, of Paris, tl e recipe ard right for making this astonishing tnedj. cine. Until the appearance of the“ Lucina Cor dial," (about three years since,) it was thought that the complaints, which it speedily overcomes, were beyond the reach ol human remedy, as forupwards of a thousand years, they had haflled the wisdom and ingenuity of the most profound physicians in all pans ol the world. This Cordial, however, to the great »dvantageofthe human race,soon proved itse;f to be the desideratum so b.ng sought for; and accordingly, notwithstanding rl e brief peri, d of as existence, it has required n celebrity so great, that it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as lo renders supply impossible, dis posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under obliga tions of secrecy, fur England, tire United States and olhci countries,only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber pos sessed himself ol tire invaluable secret; and now hastens logtve the inhabitants of his line of agency the benefits of his speculation. “Le Cordial Ue Lucine,” or, in English, “the Lucica Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the human frame! In all the various cases of languor, lassitude, and debilitation ; if is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, ns health and vigor to the body But the peculiar virtue on which its celebrity is based, is the facility and certainly with which it restores the virile piwers when they have been dent roved by disease.timc, recklessness,orany of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, tliis Cordial contains nothing of a mor] curial or deleterious nature, a,nong the many ingre dients which compose it; but is, at the same time, so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it ran reno vate the prostrated energies of a giant, an infant may use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding Ihe benefits which would bo sure to result from it, wc cannot enter into an nnaly sis ol this inestimable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, ns vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num bers of despairingindividuals. Rut this we cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of fho procrcant functions, in either sex; and therefore, that those evils are the effects of artificial causes, and may bo speediiysubduod end removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, and tho 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 in cases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels. October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am most gratified at the unprecedented popularity of your “Luc'na Cordial,” mid am able lo hear testimony to its surprising virtue. J had a patient recently, 1 .VI a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor several years abandoned himseli in the vortex ol dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of alt his virile ener gies. lie was,indeed, reduced to the last extremity of debility and Ustelcssness, 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 cases ; hut, as I had anticipated, without success; and when I saw Ihe “ Lucjgia Cordial” advertised, I must confess that even the great weight of your name did not give me mueh hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound lo try it,however, and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, my patient gave evidence of tlie returning elasticity of his system ; and he is now, having used four buttles, as weilxs ever. The number of documents, such as the above which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the first appearance of “ Lo Cordial de Lucine," would fill a volume as large as the Bible.
