Its operation uponthe human iystem 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 a “ s> ° * trying circumstances, namely, “five days, e 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 C hies Wabenothe, or Great Moon, whilst he, with others was pursuing the lucrative Fur bu siness in the North-west with the Indians Wabeno-she 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 warlike prince, not only by actual sale of the article itself to in dividuals, but by parting with copies of bis receipt at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe 01 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.

MALES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO —a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; for the reason that the component parts are made known to the 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 North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing not more aosuiu than for one to offer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Milen, 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 urove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, and will do for others what they have done for such as mav have used them; as this is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless be 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 hapaline, 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 ; many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It has long been inown that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained 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 be 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 leam, will soon be in this city.

J. Robertson & Co., forth! treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly celebrated instruments. He has now used them for nearly a year, and, didnot delicacy forbid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous affection, b> the use of these Trusses, besides many others who j.re in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the language of the com mittee ol 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 be 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 confidence 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 our 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 can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjust it themselves. The poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will be treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,frem someresponsi ble ;>erson,of their pecuniary disability. a The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable to every variety of reducible rupture. ft>b 20 F.

SPOHN, a German physician of much note, having devoted his attention for some years to the cure and removal of the causes of N ER VOUS AND SICK HEAD /.CHE, has the satis 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 families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable lamily complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which they might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the usf if his remedy. It is the result of scientific research, and is entirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy fo>- this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter ofmiu ii astoTslimeut, That su ma h suffering should ha\ eex .ed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. 3. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The i f rinciples on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an at 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 sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of the 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 w-ith the headache become convinced of it, the sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health. Dr. Spohn pledges his professionai reputation on this fact. The remedy may be had of apothecaries gew»rally throughout the United States.

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 goed effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propi letorexceed twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of theu■merits. , often have the cures performed by this medlcm been the subject of editorial comment, in vanou newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth be asserted, that no medicine of the km 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value th in are at tached to this. ~ . They are in general use as a family medicine and there are,thousands of families who declare they 1 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 ot the Spleen, Piles Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, IncipientDiarrhoea,Flatulence, Habitu al Costiveness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallo w 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 piPs; and I would add, that you may make use ol them, in connection with ray 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 ai>e the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that I would rather pur chase them at ten dollars a box 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 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, 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, 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. lam, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward o 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 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 to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success — and consequently I feel it ray 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 haste to the house of a fellow ciiizen, (Mr. Lee,) where I 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 I 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 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 aot one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

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, if any, griping or nausea. I have prescribed them with much success in sick headache and slight bil lious fever. Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams ol Burlington, Vt., July 9, 1837.—1 cordially recom mend Peters’ Pills as a mildly effective, and in no case dangerous, family medicine.

June 3 _ __ j h —j fINHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Corapo | gition,especially in,the Northern States, leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond ail 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, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, white 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 live days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most <- desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it in less tban 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 pervading 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 The proprietor has received at 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. Albany, July 9th, 1837. To Dr. Harrison. Sir—l useyour Specific Ointment in my practice, and cordially recommend it as a roost efficient reme dy for Tumors, Ulcers, White Swellings, Scrofula, Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands: and for general external complaints. 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 R. BEACH, M. D. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 29, !838! Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was sadly afflicted witn the comp aim that physicians termed a scald head ; and I feared, independent of every other evil, that she would be bald in conse quence. By the recommendation, however, of the Reverend Mr. Perrin, ! applied your ointment to the afflicted part; and I thank God that my child is now entirely recovered from the disease, and is getting her hail as fast as can be expected The cure was effected in rather less than two months; during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars duiing the previous three years, without any benefit whatever. MARY HOWARD. I hereby substantiate the truth of the above statement. CHRISTOPHER HOWARD. 1 know the above statement to be coirect, and I can add from experience that “ Harrison’s Specific Ointment,” is an excellent medicine for external complaints. MATTHEW PERRIN. Boston, Jan. 7, 1837. , Dear Sir—l have to request of you to forward me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most immediate conveyance, and without regard to the expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much in want of it.—You know my estimation of your valuable discovery, and therefore 1 shall only add, that further experience has increased ray enthusi asm and established me in the opinion, that it is su - perior to any remedy extant for external diseases. Respectfully yours,. CHARLES P. EMERSON, M. D. New Orleans, March 20th, 1838. Dr. Harrison Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have been long known to me,as I have used none other in my rather extensive practice forseveral years.and if you think it would be to your advantage, I can furnish you with twenty certificates of important cures w hich it has effected under my own imme diate inspection: the last being one of a severe and apparently perpetual ulcer, in the back of a poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di vision street, which it completely healed in twenty one days. 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. Boyle,from whom fused to purchase it, having failed and gone out of busi ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I may be imposed on by a counterfeit. Your obedient servant, EDWARD RAMSEY, M. D. Cincinnati, August 9,1837. Dr. Harrison. Sir,—l have no hesitation in stating, in reply to your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly equal to the majority of the ends for which vou re commend it. 1 qualify my certificate by the word majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in medical matters where I have had no experience. In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit lows, piles, &c., it is nou universal recipe. I have also used it on the leg of a boy which had been hi turn by an adder, and the extraction of the poison, and ultimate cure was so rapid, that my patient was as well as ever in a week ; and has remained so to this day Yours respectfully, HENRY JACOBS, M. D. Extract of a letter from Dr. J. W. Sanders of Louisville, Ky October 8, 1837. “ lam prepared to say, that for Rheumatic Fains, and the Sore Breasts of females, Harrison’s Specific Ointment has no superior, it indeed it has any equal in the whole catalogue of external medicines, as known and prescribed in this country.” Extract of a letter from Dr. Potts, of Utica, N. Y. Dated July 28, 1839. * _ “ Harrison’s Specific Ointment” is, in my opinion a most.iraportant discovery ; and is particularly effi cient in scrofulas, ulcers, sore legs, eruptions, and general outward complaints.
