Radical Cure ol Henna or iln|lare, by lir« Chase’s improved Surgeons’ Trusses. fTMH E subscriber has opened an office, at the Drug 1 store of Messrs. J. J. Robertson &Co., for the treatment of Hernia or Rupture, by means of these ustly celebrated instruments. He has now- used tliem 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 01 these Trasses, besides many others who are in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the laugu ijge of the com mittee ot the Philadelphia Medical Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chase ’have effected the permanent and accurate retention of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material inconvenience to the patient, and often under trials more severe than are usually ventured upon by those rho wearother trusses; trials that would be imprudent with any other apparatus known to the comn jttee.” “ The committee are induced by j the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strong,terras, the in struments of Dr. Chase to tue confidence of the profession, as the best known rjieans of me chanical retention in hernia, and the highest chances of radical cure.” | The following is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in our i|wn city. “ All must admit of the radical cine of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best yet invented to effect the object.” Persons from a distance can have (a? instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given to enable them to adjus it themselves. Ihe poor, who are laboring under this afflicting complaint, will Le treated gratuitous ly upon presenting a certificate,from come responsi" ble person, of their pecuniary disability. The instruments are of all sizes, and applicable to every variety of reducible rupture, feb 20 F. M. ROBERTSON, M. D. TO THE FAC li LTV AAiTiiLADIS oV FAMILIES. DR.

Since tins discovery so.’ong and anx iously looked for, some one in aliuo’i the extreme North has advertised a Tomato HR purporting t© be made from the stalk, a thing net more aosuiu than for one to offer raeai from the corn stalk, to say nothing of the difficulty of raising the Tomato so far North. Dr. Miles, of Cincinnati, is the proprietor of the Tomato Pills (proper) for the gnjat benefits of which, he holds himself bound, and ui honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are ail that they profess to be, and will do for othcis what they have done for such as mav have used them; as this is a vegetable of great use, and value, it will doubtless be valuable information to families to know that the Yellow are just doubly as valuable as the Red Tomato, and produces twice as much of the hapatine, or active principle, bud when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the system in much better condition ihan the other kind; many will recoiled with v hat trembling anxiety calomel has been given children, and how they then wished for a subs flute. It has long been known that ihe TomatG contained ca thartic principles, but not until of late was it ascertained that they contained alterative and diu retic properties, ihe Faculty embrace and use Ihe preparation most cheerfully, for Die reason that they know what it is Were it a pdjent mystery, they would be bound to reject the medicine, as they justly do tiie one thousand and one c a re-alls of the day.

Pains and Swellings in the Joints, kc., known as «. ohen’s I Rheumatic Embrocation, begs respectfully to refer ail persons suffering from these disea es to the I thousands of cures that his preparation has accom j piished, and to the numerous strange and highly I respectable testimonial which have, from time to ! time, been published to that effect in New York 1 and other places. So ceitain and searching is this I Liniment in its operations, even in cases of long j 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 -1 scription. It will be proper that all persons using 1 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 i thousands of poisons who have been effectua ly ■ cured of Rheumatism, the subscriber has subjoined letters from a few who are well and popularly • known to tiie entire society in New York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed.

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. Tire formula or recipe was obtained at great expense, intrigue and hazard by M. Cheveres, from the celebrated Indian Chief Wabekothe, 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 a most 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 Tree 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 .VI. 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 Oltowa 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,) 1 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.” Signed WABINOSHE,his X mark.

The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, Thai so ra ich suffering should have existed ftfr ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure, is truly a subject of much regret hut Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy has been invented as will convince the must credulous. The principles on w hich it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milled feet that this complaint, w hether called Stck Headache, or Nervous Headache, arises prim arily from the stomach—those who think they have the'Nervous Headache may rest assured that t his organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that I h° sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, t lnough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expect s restoration of fhc natural and healihy functions ol the system. This 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 suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his professional reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be bad of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. for safe by ANTONY A HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 fINHE great celebrity of ibis unrivalled Compo j sit ion,especially in the Northern Slates, leaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded to if, that it is beyond all comparison th° best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered.

They have passedawav from the 1 hundreds that are daily launched upon the tide of 1 experiment, and now stand before the public as high in 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 live hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Cften have the cures performed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in varion newspapers and journals; and it may with truth be asserted-that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value th m are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there are,thousands of families who declare they re never satisfied until they have a supply always on hand. They have no rival in curing and preventing Billions Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Dropsy, Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Rowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiveness,Loss of Appetite,lllotchedor 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 high!v respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca ,March 3d, IS3fS: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, —By request of your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of yourpiPs; and I would a id, that you may make use oi them, in connection with rny name, in any manner yon deem proper, I speak of their merits from expei ience.as 1 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 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 therefore equally the enemy of every disease. 1 will mention one case. 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 grate. She was attended by the most eminent physicians that money could procure; but ail 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, i y good fortune, however, as she was in this situation, ex pect ngevery 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 desperate nature, in which your pills were equally successful in rescuing the patients 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 I presume < you know 7 from the immense quantity you dispose i of 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding 1 its general use, I never hoard an individual complain i of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Bat * eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen i timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upw’ard- of fifteen j months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever ; and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— 1 though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me any tiling like permanent relief. At length, how- | ever,your pills were recommended to me, by one 'of our best phj sicians, and lam most grateful and 1 happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used two boxes when 1 found that they had restored me ‘ to perfect health. Since then, various members of my family have used them with equal success— and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise you iof the fact, and to request of you to publish this ( 1 certificate, as Lam anxious to add my public testi- , mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, THEODORE JAIVIES. j Augusta, Ga.. Feb 10, 1839, 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 ci.izen, (Mr. Lee,) where I found i his son laboring under a most alarming attack of i Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) and apparently he- I i yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for- < tune, however, I had in my pocket a broken box of i your pills —four of which 1 administere i, w ith such immediate happy effect that in a few minutes I my patient was at ease, and out of danger. This ( case, in connection with rny name is at your ser vice—and I have the pleasure to be able to inform 1 you that your inestimable medicine is in such great 1 favor with the faculty here, that I believe there is ! not one of them who does not use it in his private practice.

L, Dec. 17, 1838. —Peters’ ■ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those eiiects being produced by tire differences ' of the quantity taken, and are decidedly supetior to Lee’s, Brandrcth’s or Morrison’s Pills. Extract from a letter by Dr. Hopson of Bangor, Me , Jan. 9, 1»39 They are a peculiarly mild,yet eilicient purgative medicine, ana produce little,' if any, griping or nausea, 1 have prescribed them with much success in sick headache and slight bil lions fever. Extract of a letter by Dr. Joseph Williams of Burlington, Vt., July 9, 1837.—1 cordially recom mend Peters’ Pills as a mildly effective, and in no case dangerous, family medicine.

This Cordial, however, to the great advantage of the human race,soon proved dse.f to be the desid.'ratun-so long sought for; and accordingly,notwiihsiandirp tl e brief peri dof.ta existence, it has required a celebrity so great, thst d is eagerly inquired for throughout the civilized globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as o render a supply impossible, dis posed of ihe reeipe and right ot sale, under obliga tions ofsecrecy, far England, the United Btales and othei countries, only preserving France and Italy for himself. Thus has ihe subscriber pos sessed himself of iheinvaluahle secret ; end now hastens logiveihe inhabitants of his line cf agents, the benefits of his speculation. *'le < ordial I)e Lucine,” or, in English, “me Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorator of the human frame ! In all ihe various cases of languor, lass.tude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally ins province to impart cheerful, ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body Bui the peculiar virtueoi. which Us celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers when they have been destroyed by distuse.time,recklessness,orany of the numinous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, ihist ordial cord ans nothing of a mer curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it ; but is, at ihe same nine, so simple, yet so i fficacious, that while it can reno vate the pros.raied energies of a giant, an infan may use it,not only with impunity, bur with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding iHe bem fits which would be sure to result f rom it, w 7 e cannot enter into an analy sis ot thisine t imable Cordial here,.>r publish many 7 of the documents which have been received, as vouchers ot the blessings it nas conferred on num bers of despairing individuals. Bull is wc cannot forbear remarking—ihat it has been demonstrated thal there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at oil, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreanttunci tons, in eit iter sex ; ami therefore, that thi seevtls are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued «nd removed by the use ol “ Le < ordial ce Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn ttiduhi able cure fur the Gieei, and .he Fluor v 1 bus,obstructed,diffi cult, i-r painful Menstruation ; also, for ihe incun tinenet of Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of.
