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. June IS ts 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. a tt ll n^ sl adnQ i t o' the radical cure of hernia and that Dr. Chake’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object ” 3 Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and al ue cessary information gi ven to enable ♦ a • r 1 it themselves.

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.” Signed WABINOSHE,his A 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 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 ed and fail to cure, the money will in every case be returned.

It is she 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 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 the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 • mu>-_ i —mil n iff r f 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 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 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 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.

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. 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 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.

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.
