Radical Cure ol Henn lor Rupture, by Dr.

THE subscriber has opeiibd an office, at the Drug
store of Messrs. J. J. Pobertson & Co., for the
treatment of Hernia or Ru{ |rre, by means of these
ustly celebrated instrumexx*. He has now used
them for nearly a year, andldid not delicacy forbid,
he could name several pers<*s who have been radi
cally cured , of this truly digressing and dangerous
affection, by the use of besides many
others who are in a fair war of being entirely re
lieved. The following is til; language of the com
mittee ol the Philadelphia vledical Society on the
Radical Cure of Hernia. 2
“ The instruments of Drl Chase have effected
the permanent and accural retention of the in
testines in every case of Hernia observed by the
committee, without materia* inconvenience to the
patient, and often under tSals more severe than
are usually ventured upon ts those who wearother
trusses; trials that would imprudent with any
other apparatus known to tie committee.”
“ The committee are indjbed by the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, § strong terras, the in
struments of Dr. Chase 1) the confidence of
the profession, as the best fiown means of me
chanical retention in hcrnis*and as furnishing the
highest chances cf radical cu dk”
The following is from thelSouthem Medical and

“ All must admit of the lidical cure of hernia,
and that Dr. Chase’s Trussesfir? decidedly the best
yet invented to effect the obj«|k.”

Sull, motives of delicacy should not prevent us from
r.akine known real discoveries, which we are con
fided will benefit our fellow men. This latter
consideration has prompted the author of these hit

friends, have given them a thorough trial. He was

his recollection was gone. By using these bitters
he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby was

ANTi-BALSAM/C GONORRHfEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
rFHHS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
JL long known, and used with such unparralleled
success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, 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
incredibleextentthe 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 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
witk, 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 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.
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.”

is to subdue every vestige of inflamation, and then
acts mildly and copiously as a diuretic ; therebj
holding within itself, every requisite virtue, for
the subducrion 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

but actually eradicated by the use 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'NERVOIJS.
The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn s
remedy for this distressing compamt is every day
gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment,
That so m ich suffering should have existed for ages
without any discovery of an effectual prevent iv b '►/
cure,is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. b.
now 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. It is
an a 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 th-sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through the
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expects restoration of ihe natural and
healthy functions ol the system. 'I his object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers with the headache become
convinced of it, the sooner will their cutlering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn ( pledges his
professional reputation on this fact. 1 tie remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout

THE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo
sition,especially injhe 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 certainly 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, 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 cases of 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 w ill
at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from
pervading the sy stem. It is likewise greatly supe
rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the
chafed back and limbs of horses —(or 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 Ointm nt,” upwards of a hundred of
which were written by respectable members of the
Medical Faculty.

Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was
sadly afflicted vvitn the comp aim that physicians
termed a scald head ; and I leared, independent of
every other evil, that she would be bald in conse
quence. By the recommendation, however, of the
Reverend 31 r. Perrin, 1 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 less than two months ;
during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint
ment ; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
during the previous three years, without any benefit
whatever.

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

Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have
been long known to me,as I have used none other
in my rather extensive practice for several 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 I used
to purchase it, haying failed and gone out of busi
ness,! am fearful if I purchase at random, that J
may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

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 ray maxim to give no opinion in
medical matters where 1 have had no experience.
In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit
lows, piles,it is mv universal recipe. I have
also used it on the leg of a boy which had been
bitten by an adder, and the extraction of the poison
and u lunate cure was so rapid, that my patient was
as weU as ever in a week ; and has remained so to
this day

r k 'HESE Pills are no longer among those of doubt-
JL 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
alf 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

found possible to carry them -, end 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 of
which are from regular practising physicians, who
are the most competent judges ot their merits.
■ Often have the cures performed by this incdicm
been the subject of editorial comment, in varum
newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth be
asserted, that no medicine of the kini has ever re
ceived testimonials of greater value th in are at

They are in general use as a family medicine

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 requestor 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 oi them, in connection
with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I
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
without them. I will not enumerate Ihe 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- 1 *
peering 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 desperafe 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. 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 graceful 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 my duty to apprise you
i of the fact, and to request of you to publish this
certificate, as I am anxious to add rny 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 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, 1 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
not one of them who does not use it in his private
practice. Yours most resp’y.

f JIHE subscriber has the ph&sureo! announcm
Xlo the cilizens of the U. Stases, ihet he ha *
purchased, for a very large sum and from the in
ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris | *
recipe ar d right for making this astonishing med?
cine. Until the appearance of the “ Lucirfa Cor
dial, - ’ (about three years since,) it was thought that
the complaints, which it speedily overcomes were
beyond the reach of human remedy, as for upward *1
of a thousand years, they had hafflpd the wisdom
and ingenuity of the most profound physicians in
all pans of the world Phis Cordial, however to
the great advantage of the human race,soon proved
itseif to be tue dcsu’oraiiirn so long sought for * arid
accordingly, notwithstanding tl e brief peri d of its
existence, it has required a celebrity so great that
it is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized
globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand
was so vast as m render a supply impossible, dig.
posed of the. recipe and right ol sale, under übli<r a . vt
lions of secrecy, lor England, the United States
and othet countries, only preserving France and
Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p og .
sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and now
hastens logiveihe inhabitants &f«his line cf agency
the benefiis of his speculation.
“Ie Cordial De Lucine,” or? in English, “th e
Lucina Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the
human frame! In all the various cases of languor h
lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme
dy ; as it i* equally its province to impart cheerful,
ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor
to the body But the peculiar virtue on which its
celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with
which it restores the virile powers when they have
been destroyed by disease,time, recklessness,orany
of the numerous causes which terminate in the
prostration of those functions.
In common w ith the generality of really good
medicines, this Cordial contains nothing of a ir.er ;
curia! or deleterious nature, among the many ingre.
dients which compose it ; but is, at ibesame time, I
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 the benefits which would be
, sure to result from it, vvecannotentcrimoanaualy.
sisoi this inestimable Cordial here, or publish many
of the documents which have been received, as
vouchers of the blessings it has conferred on num
bers of despairing individuals. But this wc cannot
forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated
that there is scarcely ever, if any such t hing at all.
as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility or
the procreant functions, in either sex; and therefore,
that those evils are the effects of artificial cause*,
and may be speedily subdued and removed by the
use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.”
The Lucina Cordial is also r.n indubitable cure
for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus,obstructed, diffi- |
cult, or painful Menstruation; also, for the incon- I
tinenct of Urine,or the involuntary discharge I here- ’
of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled
medioine in cases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin,„
and in the dropsical affection-of the aged.

The United Stales proprietor of the celebrated
“ Lucina Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to lay
before the community, the following certificate,
which he has received from the inventor, the illus
trious Dr. Magnin. of Faris .-
“ This is to certify,that I have disposed of the
recipe for making ihe “Luc'na Cordial,” or
“ Elixir of Love,” and also the right to sell it
throughout the I niled Stati s of Norlh America,

for so doing is, that ihe demands to me for the above
Cordial, of which I arn the inventor, arc so nume
rous, that I am unable to supply all the orders from
Franceand Italy alone; and have therefore dispo
sed of the privileges vouchsafed in this, and oilier

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels.
October 3, 1837.
To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mos
gratified at the unprecedented popularitv ol your
“Luc-na Cordial,” and am able to bear testimony to
its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, I
1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had tor I
several years abandoned himself in the vortex of J
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 exiremit/
of debility and tastelessness, for, if an occasional
flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac
tion was almost immediate,r.nd the result perfect
prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums
in such cases; but, as I had anticipated, without
success ; anil when I saw the “ Lucina Cordial
advertised, I 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 of
its efficacy; for before a buttle was expended, my
patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of
his system ; and he is now, having used four bottle*,
as well as ever.
Ihe number of documents, such as the above
which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since the
first appearance of “Le Cordial de Lucine,” would
fill a volume as large as the Bible.
