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 lias 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 xvell 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 York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed.

OR ' ANTi-BALSAMJC GONORRHOEAL SOLUTION, Wai'ravted to cure in Five Days. ri’tHlS incomparable and invaluable remedy so X long known, and used with such impartallcled success in the Canadas for the last 30 yeais, 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. Chevevcs,from the celebrated Indian Chief WAunNOTiic, 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 extentthe 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 tiie 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, 1 may say, religious confidence on its cura ble powers. Belo w is a copy 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 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 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 WABINOSIIE,his X mark.

HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing eompaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so m tch suffering should have existed for ages withoutany 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 most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an a milted fact that 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 this organ, the stomach, is the first cause, that th 0 sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, tluough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration ol ihe natural and healthy 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. The remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout the United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 rgIHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo -8 sit ion, especially in the Northern States, loaves the proprietor but little need to say any thing tn its favor: for it has been genera lly conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison tha best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed the'speed and certainty of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chilblains, while swellings, biles, piles,spider and snake bites, &c. etc., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, it prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five flays, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer m two weeks, and the most desperate casesof white swelling that can be ima gined, have been destroyed by it in less than two months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effi cacy is truly surprising, and if applied iti time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that they will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from pervading the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior lo any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed back and limbs of horses —for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extei nal bodily evil that may fall lo the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received at least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Oinim nt ,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty.

Sir, —1 have no hesitation in stating, m reply to your note, that your “ Specific Ointment” is truly equal lo the majority of the ends for which you re commend it. 1 qualify my certificate by the word majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in medical matters where I have had no experience. In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit lows, piles,&c., it is ra v universal recipe. I have also used it on the leg of a boy w hich had been bitten by an adder, and the extraction of the poison, and ultimate cure was so rapid, that my patient was as well as ever in a week ; and has remained so to this day Y'ours respect Lilly, HENRY JACOBS, 31.

They have passed away from the 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 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 arc but few towns that do not contain some remarkable evidences of their good effects. The certificates that have been presented to the propiictor exceed twenty thousand 1 upwards of live 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 be asserted,that no medicine of the kinl has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value thin are at tached to this. The}’ 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, i Furred Tongue, Nausea, Distension of the Stomach and Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,Habitu al Costiv’eness, 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,1538: 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 ol them, in connection with my name, in any manner you deem proper, I speak of their merits from experience,as I and nry family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years; and so great a*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 1 can assure you they were many, and of very opposite natures, which has fully proved to me that your medicine is asim , pie purifier of the system, and therefore equally the enemy of every disease. I 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 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 -1 ings were fruitless ; and accordingly, we all consid ered her immediate death as inevitable. By good | fortune, however, as she was in this situation, cx ‘ pecting every day to be her last, your pills wore 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 I miraculous; and yet 1 could mention many more . of an equally’ desperate nature, in which your pills p 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 i 3’ou know from the immense quantity you dispose of. I may mention, however,that notwithstanding » | its general use, I never heard an individual complain - | of its effects. My residence is 12 miles from Ral » ! eigh, on the road to Fayetteville. I am, with sen : : trments of regard, your oh’t servant. 5 A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters, —Sir —For upward- of fifteen 1 months, I have been cruelly afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing — though 1 had applied to every thing that gave me any thing like permanent relief. At length, how j ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one : i of our best physicians, and 1 am most grateful and f I happy in being able to add, that 1 had scarcely used . 1 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— i and consequently 1 feel it my duty to apprise you ; of the fact, and to request of you to publish this s certificate, as lam anxious to add my public testi -1 mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your im • rivalled medicine. Respectfully yours, i TH EODORE JAMES. Augusta, Ga., Feb 10, 1839. Communication received from the eminent Dr. J. 11. Irwin of Florence, Georgia : ■ Dr. J. P. Peters —My Dear Sir—On tfie night of the 11th hast., I was called in great haste to the house of a fel.ow ci.izen, (Mr. Lee.) where 1 found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Croup) 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 1 administers 1, 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 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.

Until the appearance of the“ Lucina Cor" dial,'’ (about three years since,) it was thought ihai" the complaints,which it speedily overcomes, won beyond the reach of human remedy, as formivar,' 0 of a thousand years, they had baffled the vvisdoiT and ingenuity of the most profound physicians m* all pans of the world. This Cordial, however the great advantage of the human race, goon nrov *1 itself to be the desideratum so long sought for ■ and accordingly, notwithstanding tl e brief peti dol ls existence, it has required a celebrity so grei*, t t it is eagerly inquired for throughout ihe civiliz' d globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as to render a supply impossible, de posed of the recipe and right ol aale, underohlin lions of secrecy, Iwr England, ihe United State's and other countries,only preserving France and* Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber sessed himself of the invaluable secret; and Ilovv hastens to give the inhabitants of his line of agents the benefits of his speculation. “le Cordial l)e l.ucine,” or, in English, “tne Lucira Cordial,” is a general invigorator of tlie human frame ! In all the various cases of languor lassitude, and debilitation ; it is an unfailing reme dy ; as it is equally its province to impart cheerful ness and decision to the mind, as health and vigor to the body But the peculiar virtue on which & its celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers when they haie bem destroyed by disease.time, recklessness,ora: r of the numerous causes which terminate in i, a prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really gord medicines, this t ordial contains nothing of a iuei rnrial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it ; but is, at the same time, so simple, yet so efficacious, that while it can reno vate the 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 the benefits which would be sure to result from it, weeannotenter into an analy sis oi this ine t finable Cordial here, or publish many of the documents which have been received, as vouchers of the blessings n lias conferred on num bers of despairing individuals. Rut this we cannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated that there is scarcely ever, if any.such thing at all, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of ibe procreantfunclions, in either sex ; and therefore, that thoseevils are the effects of arlificial causes, and may be speedily subdued «nd removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial de Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus,obstructed,diffi cult, or painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ol Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled medicine incases of Chronic Eruptions of theskin, and ,n the dropsical affections of the aged. Most important to the American Public.

My reasons for so doing is, that the demands to me for the above Cordial, of which I am the inventor, are so nume rous, t hat I am unable to supply all the orders from France and Italy alone; and have therefore dispo sed of the privileges vouchsafed in this, and oilier certificates ol a like nature in order to generalise the benefits of my discovery throughout the world.

From the eminent Dr. Devigney, of Brussels October 3, 1837. To Dr. Magnin:—My dear friend—l am mos gratified at the unprecedented popularity of your “Luc na Cordial,” and am able to ;-iear testimony to its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, 1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor several years abandoned himself in the vortex or dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at length by the utter prostration of all his virile ener gies. He was,indeed,reduced to the last exircnuiy of debility and ustelessness, for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate,and the result perle< t prostration. I had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases ; but, as I 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 gi\e me much hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. 1 felt bound lo try it, how eve r, and was soon satisfied of its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, mv patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity of his system ; and he is now, h-tving used four bullies, aswellts ever. The number of documents, such as the above which have been received by Mr. Magnin, since ilie first appearance of “Le Cordial de Lucine,” would fill a volume as large as the Bible.
