! Radical Cure of Hernia or Rupture, by Dr.
Chase’s Improved Surgeons’ Trusses.
subscriberhas opened an office, at the Drug
J[ store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson fit Co., for the
treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these
uslly celebrated instruments. He 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
others who are in a fairway of being entirely re
lieved. The following is the language of the com
mittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia.
“ The instruments of Dr. Chase have effected
Iht permanent and accurate retention of the in
i testines in every case of Hernia observed by the
I 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
cor elusions 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 then: to adjusf
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 their pecuniary disability. J
The instruments are of ail sizes, and applicable
to every variety of reducible rupture.

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 what trembling
anxiety calomel has been given to children, and
how they then wished for a substitute. It has
long been known that the Tomato contained ca

awe-tamed that they contained alterative and diu

ANTi-BALSAMIC GONORRHOEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
y«vHIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
A long knowm, and used with such unparralleled
success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeats, 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,”—tho
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, intrigut
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 almos
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 his receipt
at enormous prices to the Chief of every tribe oi
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 manipulatory 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 Ottowa and
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.”

is to subdue every vestige of inflamation, and then

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 -

from the sudden cure of Gonorrhoea, have been
known to obtain such as stricture, hernia, humor

most loathsome, perplexing, and disagreeable dis

treatment of Gonorrhoea.

fINHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Corapo
sition,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 all 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 sures,chilblains, while swellings, biles,
piles, spider and snake bites, <fec. <fec., 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 nays, will allay and
perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most
desperate cases ol white swelling that can be ima- |
gir ed have been destroyed by it in less than two ,
months. Inihe bites of poisonous _ reptilesi its effi- |
cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its i
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 extet- j
nal bodily evil that may fall lo the lot of man or ]
beast.

Dear Sir—My daugluer,a girl of tourietn, was
sadly afflicted witn thecorap aim 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; ami 1 thank God that my child is
now entirely recovered from the disease, and is
getting her hair os fast as can be expected. The I
cure was effected in rather less than two months;
during which time 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.

me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by tho most I
immediate conveyance, and w ithout egard to the (
expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much j
in want of it.—You know my estimation of your

Dr. Harrison.
Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have (
been long known lo me,as 1 have used none other
in my rather extensive practice lor several years, and
if you think it would be to your advantage, I can
furnish you with twenty certificates oi important
cures which it has effected under my own imme
diate inspection: the last being one of a severe
and apparently perpetual ulcer,m 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 w riting 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 I used
to purchase it, having failed and gone out of busi
ness, I am fearful if I purchase at rand om, that I
may be imposed on bv a counterfeit.

hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of
experiment, and now stand before the public as
high m 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 ol
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges of theii meiits.
Often have the cures performed by this raedicia
been the subject of editorial comment, in varum
newspapers and journals - and it may with truth be
asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever ic
ceived testimonials of greater value th m are at
tached to this. , .
They are in general use as a family medicine
and there areffhousands of families who declare they
re never satisfied until they have a supply alway s
on hand. .
They have no rival in curing and preventing

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by s
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 tin
almost miraculous effects of your pil's; and I wouh
add, that you may make use ol them, in connectioi
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 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 manyy 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
ease. 1 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 hersnffer
} ings were fruitless ; and accordingly, we all consid
ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good
I fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex
pecting every' day r to be her last, your pills wore
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
i who were witness of it, (but more especially the
I suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to
: miraculous; and yet I could mention many more
| of an equally desperate nature, in w'hich your pills
i 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' p But this I presume
y'ou 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 Raf
eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen
timents of regard, y'our 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
j 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
I 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 my duty to apprise you
I of the fact, and to request of you to publish this
certificate, as I am 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 ciazen, (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
| y our 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
not one of them who does not use it in his private
practice. Yours most vesp’y.

fINHE subscriber has the pleasure ol announr
1 to the citizens of the U. States, that he h
purchased, for a very large sum and from i- 1P ba
ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of p ar j s , ln
recipe ard right for making tins astonishing m /
cine. Until the appearance of the “ Lunina r
dial,” (about three years since,) it was thought it?
the complaints, which it speedily overcome* w' 1 ’
beyond the reach of human remedy, as
of a thousand years, they had baffled the wi*H
and ingenuity of the most profound physician? 111
all parts ot the world. This Cordial, however I”
the great advantage of the human race,soon prove
itself to be the desideratum so long soimlit for
accordingly, notwithstanding rl e brief peri d nf?
existence, it has required a celebrity so gre-ir .k
it is eagerly inquired (or throughout thl c ivili*3
globe. Dr Magnin soon finding thauhe den
was so vast as ui render a supply impossib'e it ■
posed of the recipe and right of sale, underobli?
lions of secrecy, t»r England, the United Btai
and othei countries, only preserving France o°*
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber J'
sessed himself of the invaluable secrei; and n *
hastens to give the inhabitants of hia line of agen"
the benefits of his speculation.
“Le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English «a
Lucina Cordial,” is a general invigorator of [i* e
human frame 1 In all the various cases of lang u ?
lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing ret?'
dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful
ness and derision to the mind, as health and
to the body Bui the peculiar virtue on which it!
celebrity is based, is the facility and eertainty Wu k
which it restores the virile powers when they | avs
been destroved by disease,time,recklessness, o ranv
of the numerous causes which terminate m
prostration of those functions.
In common with the generality of really good
medicines, thist ordial contains nothing of a inp r
curial or deleterious nature, among the many ing r p.
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 mfant
may use it.not only with impunity, but with ad
vantage.
The usages of society are unfortunately gUc h
that, notwithstanding ihe benefits which would be
sure to result from it, we eannoteuter into an analy
sis of this inc linable Cordial here, or publish mariv
of the documents which have been received a s
vouchers of t lie blessings it has conferred on num
bers of despairing individuals. Hut it,is wc cannot
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
that there is scarcely ever, it any such thing at ail,
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of
the procreant functions, in either sex ; and therefore,
that theseevds are the effects of artificial
and may be speedily subdued «nd removed by the
use ot “ Le Cordial tie Lucine.”
The Lucina Cordial is also sn indubitable cure
for theGleet,and ihe Fluor A1 bus,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 incases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin,
and in the dropsical affections of the aged.
Most tmp rtant to the American Public.
The United States proprietor of the celebrated
“ Lucina Cordial,” or •* Elixirbf Love,” begs to lay
before the community, the following certificate,
which he has received Imm the inventor, the illus

“ Thit is to certify, that I have disposed of the
recipe for nisking the ‘‘Luc.na Cordial,” or

for so doing is, that the demands to me for the above
Cordial, of which I am the Inventor, are so nume

To Dr. Magnin;—My dear friend—l am mos
gratified at the unprecedented popularity ot your
“Lucina Cordial,” and arn able to hear testimony ui
its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently,
1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who bad tor
several years abandoned himself in the vortex o i
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 tasleiessness. for, if an occasional
flash of excitement warmed bis system, the reac
tion was almost immediate, and the result pertect
prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrum*
in such cases ; but, as 1 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- 1
bound to try it,howev'.r,and was soon satisfied u*
its efficacy; for before a buttle was expended, m'
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity m
his system ; and he is now, having used four biUtte 8 *
