He has now used them for nearly a year, and, didi ot delicacy forbid, he could name several persons w io have been radi ’■cully cured, of this truly distress ng and dangerous affection, by the use of these Tru ;-*es, besides many others who are in a fairway of being entirely re lieved. The following is the lar guage of the com mittee ot the Philadelphia Modi ;al society on the .Radical Cure of Hernia. “ The instruments of Dr. Chi.se have effected the permanent and accurate re on lion of the in testines in every case of Hernia observed by the committee, without material me mvenience to the .patient, and often under trials nore severe than are usually ventured upon by tho :e who wearother trusses; trials that would be iir prudent with any ; other apparatus known to the committee.” “ The committee are induced tty the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in str mg terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to tic confidence of the profession, as the best know } means of me chanical retention in hernia, and. as furnishing the •highest chances of radical cure.” The following is from the Southern Medical and •Southern Journal, published in our own city. “ All must admit of the radical cur. of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are 'jlecidedly the best yet invented to effect the 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.

MILES’ COMPOUND EXTRACT OF TOMATO—a substitute for Calomel, and does not belong to the family of quack medicines; Tor the reason that the component parts 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 has advertised a Tomato Pill, purporting to ■be made from the stalk, a thing: not more aosuru ilhan for one to offer meal 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 great benefits of which, he holds himself bound, andmhonor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they are all that they profess to be, and will do for ytheis what they have done for such as raav have used them; as vhis is a vegetable of great use, ?cd 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, and when used as a daily vegetable will be found to keep the xystem in much better condition than the other kind ; many will recollect with what trembling anxiety calomel has been giver; to children, and how they then wished for a substitute. It lias long been known that the Tomato contained ca thartic principles, but not until of Hate 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 cure-alls of the day. If you wMi to cleanse the system with a mild, sa.e anti-bilious medicine, 'use the Tomato Pill, of which a supply, we lear i, will soon be in this city.

Pains and Swellings in the Joints, &c., known as t ohen’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, aud to the numerous strange and highly respectable testimonials which have, from lime 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 arc 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, aud Liniments, and “Infallible Rheumatic Mixtures,” all of which be ing a compound of ignorant quacks, are calculated, j 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 j 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 York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are , universally esteemed.

CINQ JOURS, I OR ' ANTI-BALSAMIC GONORRHOEAL SOLUTION. Warranted to cure in Five Days, f ■TMJIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so A long known, and used with such unpanalleled success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, ap pears to need no panegyric. Its operation upon the human sj'stem is such that it invariably acts like a cha rm, for the relief and radical cure of a certain common and disagieeable ‘"ills the flesh is heir to.” This prize obtains its own name from the certain success which has attended it through al! of its trying circumstances, namely, “live 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. — VVabenoshe 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 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 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 VVabenoshe, 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, VVabenoshe, Chief of the nations Ottowa and Chippewa, for the love and good feeling which I have for my white friend M. Cheverct, (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.” Signed WABINOSHE,his X mark.

Those affected are requested to call and try for themselves. If the prescriptions are well follow ed and fail to cure, the money will in every case be returned.

They have passed away from 1 lie 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 alfpartsof the United States, the Canadas, Texas Mexico, and the West Indies, as any medicine tha« 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 tut few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences oi theirgood effects. Ihe certificates that have been presented to the propiietor exceed twenty thousand! upwards of five hundred of which are from regular practising physicians, who are the most competent judges of their merits. Often have the cures performed by this medicin been the subject of editorial comment, in variou newspapers and journals; and it may with truth he asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re 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 Billious Fevers, Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, Sick Headache, Jaundice, Asthma, Drops}', Rheumatism, Enlargement of the Spleen, Piles, Cholic, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, IncipientDiarrhcea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiveness, 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 nor debilitv. 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 request of 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 1 and my family have taken upw'ards of thirty boxes in three . years ; and so great ai*e the benefits we havereceiv i ed from them in general, that I would rather pur i chase them at ten dollars a box than have my house ; without them. I will not enumerate ihe afflictions they have relieved us of; but 1 can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, which , has fully proved to me that your medicine is a sim , pie purifier of the system, and therefore equally , the enemy of every disease. 1 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. 1 She was attended by the most eminent physicians 1 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, ox -1 pect ng every day to be her last, your pills were 1 introduced into my family, and so speedy and pal ‘ pable were their effects that three doses visibly ve \ lieved her, and in less than three months she was 5 perfectly restored to health. This case, 1 and ail ’ who w ere witness of it, (but more especially the suffering party,) considered to be the next thing to j miraculous; and yet I could mention many more s of an equally desperate nature, in which your pills f were equally successful in rescuing the patients 3 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. 1 may mention, however, that notwithstanding » its general use, I never heard an individual complain * of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Kal » eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen : timents of regard, your ob’t servant. J A. G. BANKS. 1 To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward" of fifteen f months, 1 have been ciuelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing— though 1 had applied to every tiling that gave me any tiling tike permanent relief. At length, bow -3 ever, your pills w'erc recommended to me, by one a of our best pli\ sicians, and lam most grateful and 1 happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used -two boxes when I found that the} - had restored me ? to perfect health. Since then, various members of 3 my family have used them with equal success — a and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise 3ou i of the fact, and to request of you to publish this i certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi ; mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un * rivalled medicine, Respectfully yours, * THEODORE JAMES, 1 Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1539.

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

Until the appearance of the “ Lucina Cor dial,'’ (about three years since,) it was thought ihii the complaints,which it speedily overcomes wcr« beyond the roach of human remedy, as for upwards of a thousand ytars. they had baffled the wisdom and ingenuity ol inernost profound physicians m all pans of the world This Cordial however o the great advantage of the human race,soon proved use:! to be the desideratum so Jong sought for- and accordingly, notwithstanding tl e hriel peri d of existence, it has required a celebrity so great thrt ir is eagerly inquired ior throughout thi civilized globe. Dr Magnin soon finding that the .lemand was so vast as to renders supply itnpossib’e dis posed of the recipe and right ol sale, under obli</ a . lions of secrecy, l«»r England, the United Suites and othei countries,only preserving France or,d* Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber p G g. sessed himself of tire invaluable secret; end now hastens togiveihe inhabitants of his lined'agents the benefits of his speculation. ’ “Le c ordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “jh e Lucina Cordial,” is a general invigorator of p, e human frame! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally iis province to imparl cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body But the peculiar vinueon which Us celebrity is based, is the lacilny and certainty with which it restores the virile powers when they have been destroyed by disease,time.recklessness.oranr of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, thist ordial contains nothing of a ir.er eurial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it; hut is, at the same lime so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can renol vatethe prostrated energies of a giant, an infan may use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such that, notwithstanding she benefits which would be sure to result from it, we cannot enter mio an analy sis ol this inestimable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers ol the blessings it has conferred on mini hers of despairing individuals. But this wc cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at all, as naiural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of the procreantlunciions,in eithersex ; ami ihere/bre, that thcseevils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued „nd removed by the use ol “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albns.obsvracted, diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ol Urine,orlhe involuntary discharge there of.

The “ Lucina Cordial” is in our opinion, an infallible remedy lor the prostration of the Procreant tunc Hons, and Artificial Barrenness : and must prove a blessing to the human race.

From ihe eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, 1537. To Dr. Magnin ; —My dear friend—l am raos gralified at Ibe unprecedented popularity of your “Luciia Cordial,” and am able to bear testimony to its surprising virtue. J had a patient recently, i M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had ior several years abandoned himself in the vortex or dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the tiller prostration of all his virile ener gies. lie was,indeed, reduced tothe last extreraiiy of debility and I islelessness, for, if an occasional flask of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate, and the result perlect prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases; but, as 1 had anticipated, without success; and when 1 saw the “ Lucuia Cordial” advertised, 1 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 hound to try it,however,and was soon satisfied of iis efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, my patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of his system ; and he is now, having used four bullies, as w ell is ever. The number of documents, such as the ai>ove 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.
