So ceitain and searching is this | Liniment in its operations, even in cases of long i standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has never been known to fail.

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 ca'culated, more or less, to injure the system rather than re , move any complaint. In proof of the estimation I in which the Embrocation is held by respectable J men in the medical profession, as well as by the j thousands of persons who have been effectua ly J cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined j letters from a few who are well and popularly known to the entire society in New V ork, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed, M.

The formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by 31. 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 war! 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 e.’ery Indian who rely with, I may say, religious confidence on its cura ble powers. Below is a cop.v 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 j have for my white friend Al.

The principles rm w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an a mined fact limt this complaint, w hether called Sick Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the Nervous Headache may rest assured that ibis organ, the stomach, is ihe first cause, that th • sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, through ihe stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration ol ihe nauraf anil healthy functions of the system. T his object, Dr. Spoint’s remedy is eminently calculated to a'tain.

Sir,—J have no hesitation in staling, in reply to your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly equal to the majority ol the ends for which you re commend it. 1 qualify rny certificate by iho word majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in medical matters where 1 have had no experience. In sprains, bruises, inflammations, erupt ions, whit lows, .piles, Ac., it is m - universal recipe.

The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No 1 Ca ,March 3d, LS3S: Dr. Peters—Dear Sir, —By requestof your agent, 1 Mr. Harrison, I send you a few fines respecting the j almost miraculous effects of your pilE; and 1 would I add, that you may make use ol them, in connection | with my name, in any' manner you deem proper, 1 ■ speak of their meiits from experience,as 1 and my ■ family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in thiee j years ; and so great ax; the benefits we have recei v- I ed Lorn them in general, that I would rather pnr i chase them at ten dollars abox than have my house without them. I will not enumerate the afflictions they have relieved us of ; but 1 can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, w hich has fully proved to me that your medicine isasira ■ pic purifier of the system, and therefore equally i the enemy' of every disease. 1 will mention one case. 1 have a sister who had been for a long pe riod sc’ erely 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 dibi ts to restore her to health, or even to mitigate hersuffer ings were fruitless ; and accordingly,we ail consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By' good fortune, however, as she w r as in this situation, ex pect ng every day to be her last, ymur pills were introduced into my r family, and so speedy and pal pable were their elfects tiiat three doses visibly re lieved her, and in less Ilian three months she was I perfectly restored to health. This case, I and ail i who were witness of it, (but more especially the j suffering considered to the next tiling to j ; miraculous; and yet 1 could mention many more J 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 ? But this I presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of I may mention .however, that notwithstanding its general use, 1 never heard an individual complain of its effects. My residence is limiies from Lai eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen timents of regard, ymur ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward* 3 of fifteen | months, I have been cruelly' afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could hnd nothing— though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At length, how- , ever, your pills w’ere recommended to me, by one of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used two boxes when 1 found that they had restored me i to perfect health. Since then, various members of j my family have used them with equal success— -1 and consequently I feel it my duty to apprise you j of the fact, and to request of you to pub.ish this j certificate, as I am anxious to add my public testi -1 mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine.
