treatment of Hernia or Rupti re, by means of these

he could name several person who have been radi

others who are in a fairway of being entirely re

Radical Cure of Hernia.
“ The instruments of Dr. ’base have effected
the permanent and accurate retention of the in
testines in every case of Her ia observed by the
committee, without material nconvenience to the
patient, and often under tri: s more severe than
are usually ventured upon by hose w’ho wearother
trusses; trials that would bn imprudent with any
other apparatus known to th* com! littee.”
“ The committee are indu* id by the foregoing
conclusions to recommend, in strong terms, the in
struments of Dr. Chase t< the confidence of
the profession, as the best known me
chanical retention in hernia, jind as furnishing the
highest chances of radical curti.”
The following is from the Southern Medical and
Southern Journal, published i| iur own city,
“ All must admit of the raflical cure of hernia,

RHEUMATISM.
COHEN’S RHEUMATIC EMBROCATION.—
Dr. M. B. Cohen, proprietor of the universally
celebrated lotion for the cure of Chronic and Infla
matory Rheumatism. Sprains, Lumbago, Pains and
Swellings in the Joints, &c., known as Cohen’s
Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer
all persons suffering from these disea es to the
thousands of cures that his preparation has accom
plished, and to the numerous strange and highly
respectable testimonials which have, from time to
time, been published to that effect in New York
and other places. So certain and searching is this
Liniment in its operations, even in cases of long
standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has
never been known to fail. The following letters
are selected from hundreds of others of a like de
scription. It will be proper that all persons using
he Liniment, see that it is accompanied with the
signature of the proprietor in his own hand writing.
Since the introduction of this remedy to the public,
various empirics have been palmed upon the coun
try, Nostrums and Lotions, and Liniments, and
“Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be
ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated,
more or less, to injure the system rather than re
move any complaint. In proof of the estimation
in which the Embrocation is held by respectable
men in the medical profession, as well as by the
thousands of persons who have been effectua ly
cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined
letters from a few who are well and popularly
known to the entire society in New Y'ork," and
whose opinions and professional judgments are
universally esteemed.

PERHAPS there is nothing iao” c'-.'c’jlated l '*
disgust the public eye than ihe innumerable
advertisements of nostrums that are constantly ap
pearing in the public prints. All are ready 10 ex
claim, our souls are sick, our ears are pained with
every day’s reports ol ills and specifics. Tkis state
bt 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 ol delicacy should not prevent us from
making know n real discoveries, w hich we are con
fident will benefit our fellow men. This latter
consideration has prompted (he author of these bit
ters to make them known. He knows they are high
ly efficacious, for he himself, his w ife, 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. Mr*. Cosby was
troubled for many years, but « as restored to health
by ihe use ol these hitters. This has been the case

forth this advertisement, addressesthose vvhoknow
him. He has been lor many years a resident ol

cases ofdiseases of the digestive organs, the symp

of which he refers them to Freeman W. Lacy, she

ANTi-BALSAMIC GONORRIBEAL SOLUTION,
Warranted to cure in Five Days.
f| \HIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so
JL long known, and used with such unparra-leled
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,” —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. Cheveves, 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. —
VVabenoshe prized highly and use it with invariable
success throughout his two tribes. Its known and
valued virtues have already enriched to an a most
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 lereipt
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 tlveir respective tribes, w’hich
places it in the hands of every Indian who rely
with, 1 may say, religious contidence 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. Chevcret, when he purchased the original recipe,
and had twice assisted the Chief himself through
the tedious manipulatory process of manufacture.
Few r 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 Ottow r aand
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
i w T hich my children have bad 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 inllamation, and then
acts mildly and copiously as a diuretic; therebj
holding within itself, every requisite virtue, for
the subduction of this loathsome malady —and ev

assertion, that copious diuresis and reduction of in
flation, are the only two tilings necessary to etiiect
ajsound and radical cure
The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,”
is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to
atiect 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, humoi
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

years totnecure ana removal of meetuses of NER
VOUS AND SICK HEAD AC HE, has the satis
faction to make known, that he has a remedy which
by removing the causes cures effectually and perma
nently this distressing complaint. There are many
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 inoy might not only alleviate,
but actually eradicated by the us 1 - if his remedy.
It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely
of a different chaiacler from advertised patent medi
cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste.
HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS.
The extraordinary reputation ihat Dr. Spohn’s
remedy for this distressing oorapaint 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 preventive, or
cure, is iruly a subject of much regret but Dr. S.
now assures the public that such a remedy has been
invented as will convince Ihe most credulous. The
principles on which it acts are simple and plain. Itis
an a milted fact that this complaint, whether called
Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim
arily from the stomach s —those who think they have
the Nervous Headache may rest assured that ihis
organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th'-sys
tem has become vitiated or debilitated, tlnough ihe
stomach, and that only through the same channel
must they expect s restoration of ihe natural and
healihy functions of the system. 'I Ins object, Dr.
Spohn’s remedy is eminentJy calculated to attain.
The truth of this position cannot be controverted,
and the sooner sufferers wiih ihe headache become
convinced of it, ihe sooner will their suffering end
in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his
pr* fessionai reputation on this fact. J ire remedy
may be had of apothecaries generally throughout
the United Stales. „

Dear Sir—My daughter,a girl of fourteen, was
I sadly afflicted wirn thecotnp amt that physicians
tern.ed a scald head ; and 1 feared, indepe dent of
ever> other evil, that she would be bald in conse
quence. By the recommendation, however, of the
Reverend Mr. Perrin, 1 applied your ointment to the
afflicted part; and 1 thank God that my child is
now" entirely recovered from the disease, and is
getting her bait as fast as can be expected. The
cure was effected in lather less than two months;
during which lime 1 us. d fiv dollars worth of oint
ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars
during the previous three years, without any benefit
whatever.

I hereby substantiate the truth ol the above

Dear Sir—l have to request of yon to forward
me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most
immediate conveyance, and w ithout regard to the
expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much
in want of it. —You know my estimation of your
valuable discovery, and therefore I shall only add,
that further experience has increased my enthusi

perior to any remedy extant for external diseases.

Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have
been long known to me,as 1 have used none other
in my rather extensive practice lor several years, and
il y-u think it wouid be to your advantage, I can
furnish you with twenty certificates of important
cures which it lias effected under my own imme
diate in>pection : the last being one of a severe
and apparently p-rpelual nicer, in the back of a
poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di
vision si reel, which it completely healed in twenty
one days. My present chief object in writing to
you, is io learn who is your authorised agent iifthis
city, for,being in want of a supply 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 random, ihat 1
may be imposed on by a counterfeit.

f | vHESE Pills are no longer among those of doubt-
I. /ul utility. They have passed away from the
hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide ol
experiment, and now stand before the public as
hi<rh 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 i
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 propnetor exceed
twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of
which are from regular practising physicians, w he
are the most competent judges ot then merits.
Often have the cures performed by this medtem
been the subject of editorial comment, m varum
newspapers and journals ; and it may with truth be
asserted.that no medicine of the kml has ever 10-
ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at
tached to this. •
They are in general use as a family medicine
and there are.lhousands of families who declare they
re never satisfied until they .have a supply always
on hand. .
They have no rival in curing and preventing
Biliious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver
Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma,
Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen,
Piles, Choiic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn,
Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach
and Bowels, IncipientDiarrhcea,Flatulence,Habitu- .
al Costiv e ness, Loss of Appetite, Blotched or Sallow
Complexion, and in cases of torpor of the bowels,
where a cathartic or aperient is needed They are
exceedingly mild in their operation, producing
neither nausea, griping no; debility.
The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a
highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No
Ca ,March 3d, 1S38:
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 w ould
add, that you may make use ol 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
year* ; 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 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 therefoie 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
pect ng every day to be her last, your pillo 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 tp health. This case, 1 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 equa'ly 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
you know from the immense quantity you dispose
of I may mention, how r ever, that notwithstanding
1 its general use, I never heard an individual complain
of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Rai
-1 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 s of fifteen
months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever
and Ague; and during the time could find notlring—
though I had applied to every thing that gave me
any thing like permanent relief. At length, how r
ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one
of our best phj sicians, and I am most grateful and
j 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 —
1 and consequently 1 feel it my 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;
i Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On the night of
the 11th inst.,l was called in great haste to the
house of a fellow’ ci.izen, (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, 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 1 have the pleasure to be able to inform
1 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.
