Robertson ScCo., forths treatment of Hernia or Rupture, ly means of tliese ustly celebrated instruments. He. lias now used them for nearly a year, and, didnobdelicacy foibid, he could name several persons who have been radi cally cured , of this truly distressing and dangerous alfcction, by the use of these Trusses, besides many others who are in a fairway o f 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 elfected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia o .-erved by the committee, without material inconvenience to the 8 patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those who wearcther 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, tiie in struments of Dr. Chase to the iconfidejjce of the profession, as the best known limans- of me chanical retention in hernia, and asifurnishingthe highest chances of radical cure.” The fol owing is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in reir own city. All must admit of the radical tine of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to elTect tiie 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 adjus it themselves.

M. ROBERT |-ON,M. D. TO Till: FACULTY AND DEADS OF FAMILIES. OR. 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 pu ts 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 lias advertised a 'Tomato Pill, purporting lo be made from the stalk, a thing not more aosutu than for one to olfer meal from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raisin- 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 Ml that they profess to be. and will do for otheis what they have done for such as rna\ have used them ; as '-his is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will vioubt css be valuable information to >a nlUcs to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Led Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapathie, oi active principle, amh when used as a daily vegetable will bo found uj, keep the system in much better condition tin, a the other kind; many will recollect with trembling anxiety calomel has been given to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It has long been known that the Tomato coinUincd ca thartic principles, but not until of iajte 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 cuicv-alls of the day. If you w ish to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, use tyo Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we leant, will soon be in this city.

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a - highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Si I Ca.,March 3d, 1838: ]{ j Dr. Peters —Dear Sir,' —By request of your agent, /! ; Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the I] | almost miraculous effects of your pil's ; andl would Ij a id, that you may make use ol them, in connection J | with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I SI , speak of their merits from experience,as 1 and my 2 ; family have taken upwards of tidily boxes in three )- ' years; and so great aw the benefits we have receiv s j ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur ls j chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house it i without thorn. 1 will not enumerate Ihe afflictions i- j they have relieved us of; but 1 can assure you they L j were many, and of very opposite natures, which s , I has fully proved to me that your medicine isasim- s i pie purifier of, the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I will mention one y case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe *' riod severely afflicted with dropsy' in the chest and ’J was brought by it T to the very verge of the gra\e. * She was Attended by the most eminent physicians ' l that money could procure; but all their efforts to 1 restore her to health, or even to mitigate her suffer 1' ings were fruitless ; and accordingly, we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. Jiy good j‘j ' fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex n pect ng every day to be her last, your pilla were introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal ’e pablc were their effects that three doses visibly re ,r lieved her, and in less than three months she was perfectly restored to health. This case, 1 and all ){ who were witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to d miraculous; and yet I could mention many more Is of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills jt were equally successful in rescuing the patients ie from the jaws of death. Need 1 add that the popu larity of your medicine amounts to enthusiasm in this section of the country ;’ But this 1 presume I you know from the immense quantity you dispose of I may mention, however,that notwithstanding c ‘’ its general use, 1 never heard an individual complain | ofiits elibcts. My residence is 12miies from But eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. 1 am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant, i A. G. BANKS. v ' To Dr. Peters, —Sir—For upward" of fifteen * months, 1 have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could laid nothing— though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me i any thing like permanent relief. At length, how ls ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one is : of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and d happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used s * two boxes when I found that they had restored me e to perfect health. Since then, various members of ie my family have used them with equal success — 18 and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you 18 of the fact, and to request of you to publish this e certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi ’ monyto the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, ? THEODORE JAMES. 11 Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. H. Irwin of Florence, Georgia : e Dr. J. P.

By the greatest good for tune, however, I had in my pocket a broken box of your pills —four of which 1 administere i, with such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes , my patient was at ease, and out of danger.
