TO THE FACULTY AND HEADS OF
FAMILIES.
DR. MILES’ 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
kuowm to the faculty, or any one else that may
wish to know, by aay of the agents keeping them
for sale. Since this discovery so long and anx
iously' looked for, seme one in almost the extreme
North has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to
be made from the ttalk, a thing not more aosuru
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 be, and will do for othcis 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 Y'ellow' are just doubly as valuable
as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much
of the hapatine, 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 w r hat trembling
anxiety calomel has been given to children, and
how they then wished for a substitute. It has
long been knowm that the Tomato contained ca
thartic principles, Iml 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 w’ould be bound to reject the medicine, as they
justly do the one thousand and one cure-alls of the
day. If you wish tj cleanse the sy’stem with a
mild, sa.e anti-bilions medicine, use the Tomato
1.11, of which a supply, we learn, will soon be in
this city. We all know something about this.

Radical Cure oflleriua or Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
FIIHE subscriber has opened an office, al the
store of Messrs J. J. Robertson &Co., forths
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 severs I persons who have been radi
cally cured, of this truly distressing and dangerous
affection, by the use of these Trusses, besides many
othcis who are in a fairway of being entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of the com
mittee cl 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 jpon by those who wearother
trusses; trials that would be imprudent with anv
other apparatus known to the committee.” 3
ihe 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 frem the Southern Medical and
Southern Journal, published in our own city.

yet invented to effect the object ” 3

O. COSBY’S DYSPEPTIC BITTERS.
PERHAPS there is nothing more calculated to
disgust the public eye than the innumerable
advertisements ol nostrums that are constantly ap
pearing in the public prints. All are ready to ex
claim, our souls are sick, our ears are p«nec
every day’s reports of ills and specifics. 1 bis state
ol the public mind would seem to forbid any person
of delicate mind from sending forth any new; dis
coveries in medicine, to the trial of the 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 the author of these hit
ters to make them known. He know s 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
bv 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 lias been for many years a resident of
Augusta, at which place he can at any time ba
consulted about the bitters. They are good in a.l
cases of diseases of the digestive organs, the symp
toms of w hich are indigestion, pain or oppression
in the stomach from food, Jossot appetite, flatulen
cy, heart burn, giddiness in the head, pain in the
side, shortness of breath, lassitude, general weak
ness, distuibed sleep, &c The composition is en
tirely Botanical, and has proved efficacious when
many celebrated medicines had failed. In support
of which he refers them to Freeman W. Lacy, she
riff ol Richmond count' - , and William T. Thomp
son, editor of the Augusta Mirror, and he might re
fer you to many others, but deems it unnecessary,
as he is willing to place it on its own merits. All
he asks is lor tnose who are afflicted with the dys
pepsia to give it a trial.
They can be had at T. H. Plant’s book-store,
Augusta, and of O. Cosby himself, at the corner of
Washington and Ellis-streets. nov 30 ly
CINQ JOURS,
OR
ANTI-BALSA MIC GONORRHCEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
fgNHIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
J long known, and used with such unparralleled
success in the Canadas for the last 30 ycais, 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
trying circumstances, namely, “five 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 his two tribes. Its known and
valued virtues have already enriched to an almost
incredible extent the children of this wai l 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.
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 maniputatory 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.”

This Medicine,! warrmt by this publication,un

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 effect
ajsound 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

returned.

faction to make known, that he has a remedy which

families who have considered Sick Headache a con
stitutional incurable family complaint - Dr. S. as
sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring
under distress which tnoy might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the use if his remedy.
It is she result of scientific research,and is entirely

HEADACHE, SICK 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 much 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.
row assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince the most credulous. The
>rinciples on which it acts are simple and plain. Itis
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, that th“ 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 of the system. This object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated lo 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. pledges his
professional reputation on this fact. The remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout

f¥NHE great celebrityof ibis unrivalled Conipo
3. sition,especially 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 all comparison the best remedy for ex
ternal complaints that has ever been discovered.
Indeed and certainty of its operations,
have the appearance of miracles ; as ulcers, rounds,
corns, fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake bites, &c. &c., immediately
yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, il 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 casesof white swelling that can be ima
gined, have been destroyed by it in 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
dialed 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 Oiritm nt,” upwards of a hundred of

Dear Sir — My daughter, a girl of lourieen, was
sadly afflicted witn thecorup flint that physicians
termed a scald head ; and I feared, independent of
ever> other evil, that she would be bald in conse
quence. By the recommendation, however, of the
Reverend Mr. Perrin, I 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 hair as fast as can be expected The
cure was effected in lather leas than two months;
during which time I used fiv dollars worth of oint
ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
duting the previous three years, without any benefit
whatever.

T a \U£SG Pills arc no longer amontf those of douht-
X ful utility. 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 proprietor exceed
twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred ot
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges of their merit.-'. _
1 Often have the cures performed by this medicui
been the subject of editorial comment, in variou
newspapers and journals; and it may with tiuth
asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has evei ic
ceived testimonials of greater value thin aie at

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 piPs; and I would
add, 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 1 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 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 ail consid
ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good
fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex
pecting eveiy day to be her last, your pills were
introduced into tny 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 patiehts
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. I am, with sen
timents of regard, your ob’t servant.
A. G. BANKS.
To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward l3 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 rny 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.

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 ciuzen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found
his son laboring under a most alarming attack of
Cynanche Tracnealis (Cronp) 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 administcre 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 sreat
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.

- L’ELIXIR DE L’AMOUR
fII HE subscriber has the pleasure ol annnn n .
j to the riiizensof the U. States, j her ho'h 1
purchased, for a very large sum and from th e
ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of p aris , m
recipe ardi i2ht for making this astonishing m r
cine. Until the appearance nf the “Lucina p
dial, ’ (aboutthree years since,) it wasthoua| q
the complaints,which it speedily overcomes 1 w
beyond tbe reach ol human remedy, as f or
of a thousand years, they had baffled t i le V.
and ingenuity ol the profound physicians t
all parts ot the world. This Cordial, however t
the great advantage of the human race,soon prove!!
itself to be the desideratum so long sought lor • ai I
accordingly, notwithstanding ti e hriel peri d of y
existence.it has required a celebrity so great,
it is eagerly inquired lor throughout the civ’ilivp I
globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the ilemar r
was so vast as to render a supply impossible,
posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under
lions of secrecy. f«r England, the United Stay!
and othei countries, only preserving France 8r
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber’,,,/
sessed himself of theinvaluable secret; and now
hastens logivethe inhabitants of his line cf agenev
the benefits of his speculation.
“le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “ ( ( le
Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the
human frame ! In all the various cases 61 languor
lassitude, and debiliiation ; it is an unfailing rem e !
dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful,
ness and decision to the mind, as health and
to the body But the peculiar virtue on which'as
celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with
which it restores the virile powers when they bins
been destroy ed by disease, time, recklessness,oranv
of the numerous causes which terminate in the
prostration of ihose functions.
In common with the generality of really good
medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a mer
curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingy.
dients which compose it; but is, at the same time,
so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can 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 ihebenefits which would be
sure to result from it, we cannot enter into an anaiv
sis ol this ine-timable Cordial here, or publish mans
of the documents which have been received, a»
vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num
bers of despairing individuals. But this wccannoi
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
that there is scarcely ever, it any such thing at all,
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of
the procreant functions,in eithersex ; and therefore
that thcseevtls 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 tn indubitable care
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 unrivalleu
medicine in cases of Chronic Eruptions of thelkin,
and in the dropsical affections ol the aged.
Most important to the American Public.
The United Stales proprietor of the celebrated
“ Liicma Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to lav
before the community, the following certificate,
which he has received from the inventor, ihe illus
trious Dr. Magnin. of Paris .-
“ This is to certify,that I have disposed of the
recipe for making the “Luc.na Cordial,” or
“ Elixir of Love,” and also ihe right to sell it
throughout the I ntred Slates of North America,
to John Winters Holderwell, M. D. My reasons
for so doing is, that the demands to me for the above
Cordial, oi which I am the inventor, are so nume

.®. ,* Magnin:— My dear friend—l am raos
gratified at the unprecedented popularity ol your
Eutvna Eorutal, and am able to bear testimony to
Us surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently,
1 .vi , a gentleman of fortune, who had for
several years abandoned himself in the vortex ot
dissipation ; and was only reclaimed front it at
length by the utter prostration of ail his virileener-
S l e3 t', Gs was . indeed, reduced to the last exiremit?
of debility and taste, 1 essness. for, if an occasional
flash ol excitement warmed his system, the reac
tion was almost immediate, and the result perfect
prostration. I had applied afi the usual n <wWW»
in such cases ; but, as I had anticipated, without
success ; and when I saw the “ Lucina Cordial”
advertised, 1 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 oi
Us efficacy; for before a bo»;j e was expended, mV
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of
his system ; and he is now, having used four bottles,
as well is ever.
The number of documents, such as the above
