In the first place they cleanse, strengthen and give tone to the stonjiach and bow els, and create a new and healthy action through out the system. They produce a natural and per manent appetite; they defend the | ; Vstern against new or subsequent attacks of the; disease; they assist the various operations of nature by cleansing the system of all vitiated,corrupt anil acrid humors, and thus invigorate and reanimate the whole frame. Possessing a purgative quality, they! cannot remain in the bowels to produce such other diseases as often follow the injudicious treatment of the fever and ague. They are composed entirely of vegeta ble matter, and may be taken 1 y persons of both sexes and of all ages, without the least danger of unpleasant consequences. In fine, the public are assured that Gallighan’s Pills possess those inesti mable virtues, which are requisite hot only to ar rest, but to eradicate and destroy the last seeds of this most distressing malady of the human family’. The proprietors solemnly pledge themselves that they do not contain a particle of minerals in any shape or form,but'are composed entirely of simple vegetable substances, which either separately’ or combined, and without regard to sex or age, are perfectly harmless in their effects upon the human system. ; !

The following is the language of tire com mittee ot the Philadelphia Medial Society on the Radical Cure of Hernia. i : “ The instruments of Dr. Chtjse have etlected the permanent and accurate retk-rition of the in testines in every case of Hernia - qbserved by the committee, without material rncrir venience to the patient, and often under trials bipre severe than are usually ventured upon by wearother trusses; trials that would be imjpl’udent with any other apparatus known to the committee.” “ The committee are induced jbri the foregoing conclusions to recommend, in strpr.g terms, the in struments of Dr. Chase to tliej confidence of the profession, as the best known] means of me chanical retention in hernia, and is furnishing the highest chances of radical cure.” j : The following is from the Southern Medical and Southern Journal, published in oui| own city. “ All must admit of the radical? cure of hernia, and that Dr. Chase’s Trusses are decidedly the best y'et invented to elfect the object.”' i Persons from a distance can have the instruments applied, upon application at the office, and all ne cessary information given co enablp them to adjvs it themselves.

I A CERTAIN CURE FOR THE { itcha Try- No article ever introduced to public notice has been found to answer a belter purpose, or been more highly ap proved, than the justly celebrated Dumfries’ Itch Ointment.

Student!—connected with one of our Liter ary Institutions, where this loathsome disease had ap peared, observes, that Dumfries'’ Itch Ointment extermi nated it, after various other applications had failed to do so, and it had in consequence gained a reputation in that Seminary, and vicinity, as the best remedy known for the Itch! %♦ This preparation, for pleasantness, safety, expedi tion, ease and certainly, is unsurpassed, if equalled. It does not contain the least particle of mercury, or other danperous ingredient, and may be applied with perfect safety by pregnant females, or to children at the breast, and it cures, however inveterate, in One Hour’s Application only!—And no danger from taking cold. It is also one of the best applications for a humor, in form of a ring-worm, known by the name of the Barbers’ Itch, Mid for Pimples, and diseases of the skin generally.

Cohen, proprietor of the universally j 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 ail persons suffering from these disea es to the thousands of cures that his preparation has accom plished, and to tlic 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 tl is Liniment in its operations, even in cases of lor;g standing, and of an obstinate nature, that it has never been known to fail. Tire 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 handwriting. 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 ami popularly known to the entire society in New York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. 275£ Hudson street,N. Y r . New York, Aug. 3, IS3B. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of your Rheumatic Embrocation,and ti e beneficial effects arising therefrom, it affords me pleasure to state that I most cheerfully recommend it as an invaluable remedy, and the best known for the cure of that painful and distressing complaint, either in its acute or chronic form.

THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so long known, and used with such unparralleled 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. 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 amost 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 “ait 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. Below is a copy of the translation as near as it can be anglisized of tiie 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 WABINOSHE,his X mark.

This Medicine,! warrrnt by this publication,un der a penalty of $.3,000, not to contain one parti cle of corrosive preparation. It is purely vegeta ble in its essences. Its first and prominent virtue is to subdue every vestige of inflaraation, and then acts mildly and copiously as a diuretic; thereby holding within itself, every requisite virtue, for the subduction of this loathsome malady—and ev ery regular graduate in medicine, will sustain the assertion, that copious diuresis and reduction of in flation, are the only two things necessary to cflTect a'sound and radical cure The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,” is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to atFect 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 arc 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.

There are many ] families who have considered .Sick Headache aeon- ( stiiuiional incurable family complaint- Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, aed labouring under distress which incy might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by the us“ if his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and isenlirely of a different character from advertised patent medi cines, and is not unpleasant to the taste. HEADACHE, SICK OR NERVOUS. The extraordinary reputation that Dr. Spohn’s remedy for this distressing compaint is every day gaining is certainly a matter of much astonishment, That so ra :ch suffering should have existed for ages without any discovery of an effectual preventive, or cure,is truly a subject of much regret but Dr. S. now assures the public that such a remedy kas been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on w hu h it acts are simpleand plain. It is an a milled fact that this complaint, whether 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" sys tem has become vitiated or debilitated, thiough the stomach, and that only through the same channel must they expects restoration of the natural and healthy functions of the system. 'Plus object, Dr. Spohn’s remedy is eminently calculated to aitam. The truth of this position cannot be controverted, and the sooner sufferers with the headache become convinced of it, (he sooner will their suffering end in restoration of health, Dr. Spohn pledges his prefessionai reputation on this fact. Tne remedy may be had of apothecaries generally throughout tiie United States. For sale by ANTONY & HAINES, No. 232 Broad-street, Augusta. mar 26 FiNIIE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo -1 sit ion, especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor hut little need to say any thing in its favor: for it lias been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy for ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed ihe’spced and certainly of its operations, have the appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns,fever sores,chilblains, white swellings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites, &c. &c., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus, it prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in live days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in tw o weeks, and the most desperate cases of white swelling that can be ima t, gir ed have been destroyed by ii m less than two [ months. In the bites of poisonous reptiles its effl ! cacy is truly surprising, and if applied in time, its powers of attraction are so wonderful that thry will at once arrest the poison and thus prevent it from perva ting the system. It is likewise greatly supe rior to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed hack and limbs of horses —lor tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every exter nal bodily evii that may fall to the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received at least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Oinfra nt,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty.

Sir, —I have no hesitation in stating, 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 my certificate by the word majority, as it is my maxim to give no opinion in medical matters where 1 have had no experience. In sprains, bruises, inflammations, eruptions, whit lows, piles, it is m. universal recipe.

They have passed away from the hundreds that are daily' launched upon tiie 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 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 but ferv 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 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 mediciu been the subject of editorial comment, in variou newspapers and journals; and it may' with truth be asserted, that no medicine of the kin 1 lias 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.thousands of families who declare they' re never satisfied until tlieyhavc 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. Chodc, Female Obstructions, Heartburn, Furred T ongue, 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 debility. The following was forwarded to Dr. Peters, by a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d,1838; Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By request of your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous e libels 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 my family have taken upwards of thirty boxes in three years ; and so great ape the benefits we have receiv ed from them in general, that 1 would rather pur chase them alien 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 isasirn ple purifier of the sy'storn, 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 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. By 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 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 elfects. My residence is 12mi!es from j.a. 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- of fifteen months, 1 have been ciueily afflicted with Fever and Ague; and during the time could find nothing — though I had applied to every' thing that gave me any thing ;ikc permanent relief. At length, how ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best pby sicians, and 1 am most grateful and i happy in being able to add, that I had scarcely used 1 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— and consequently'l feel it my duty to apprise you ; of the fact, and to request of you to publish this j certificate, as 1 am anxious to add my' public testi ; mony to the almost miraculous virtues of your un rivalled medicine Respectfully'yours, THEODORE JAMES. 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 Ilthinst.,l was called in great haste to the house of a fellow 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, I had in my pucket a broken box of your pills—four of which 1 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 y'our 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 1 believe there is i not one of them who does not use it in his private j practice.

Extract from a letter written by Dr. Francis Bo gart, of Providence, R. 1., Dec. 17, 1838. —Peters’ pills are an excellent aperient and cathartic medi cine, those effects being produced by the differences of the quantify taken,and are decidedly supeiior to Lee’s, Brandreth’s or Morrison’s Pills. Extract fiom a letter by Dr. Hopson of Bangor, Me , Jan. 9, 1839.

Extract of a letter from Dr. Scott of Baltimore, Dec. 17,1836. —I am in the daily habit of prescri bing them, (Peters’Pills) and they in nearly all cases answered my purpose.

States, lhat he ha* purchased, for a very large sura and from the in", ventor, the celebrated Dr. Magnin, of Paris h, s recipe ard rkht for making this astonishing mtdi cine. Until the appearance of the “Lucina Cor dial, ’’ (about three years since,) it was thought dial the complaints,which it speedily overcomes. were beyond the reach of human remedy, as for towards of a thousand years, they had baffled the wisdom and ingenuity of profound physicians in all pans ot the world. This Cordial, however io ihe great advantage of the human race,soon proved itself to be the desideratum so long sought for accordingly, notwithstanding tl e briel peri.J of ]u existence, it has required a celebrity so g re . u> t p rt it is eagerly inquired for throughout rhe civilized globe. Dr. Magnin soon finding that the demand was so vast as io renders supply impossible, dis posed of the recipe and righl ol sale, under oblura tions of secrecy, fer England, the United iSiat'iK and other countries, only preserving France and* Italy for himself. Thus has the subscriber pos scss.ed himself of the invaluable secret ; and now hastens togivethe inhahitantsof his lined agents the benefits of his speculation. “le Cordial De Lucine,” or, in English, “ine Lucira Cordial,” isa general invigorator of i! ie human frame ! In all the various cases oi 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 whidi'u* celebrity is based, is the facility and certainty with which it restores the virile powers when they have hern destroyed by disease.lime,recklessness,orany of the numerous causes which terminate in the prostration of those functions. In common with the generality of really good medicines, this C ordial contains nothing of a meu curial or deleterious nature, among the many ingre dients which compose it ; but is, at die same time, so simple, yet so fill cations, that while it can reno vate ihe prostrated energies of a giant, an rnliin rnay use it,not only with impunity, but with ad vantage. The usages of society are unfortunately such, that, notwithstanding the hern fits which would be sure to result from it. weeannot enter into an analy sis ol this ine liniable Cordial here,. r publish many of the documents which have been received, us vouchers ol the blessings n lias conferred on num bers of despairing individuals Bin. I is weeannot forbear remarking—that it has been demonstrated lhat there is scarcely ever, if any such thing at ail, as natural barrenness, or as natural imbecility of die procreantf unci ions, in either sex ; and therefore, that these evils are the effects of artificial causes, and may be speedily subdued and removed by the use ot “ Le Cordial tie Lucine.” The Lucina Cordial is also tn indubitable cure for the Gleet, and the Fluor Albus, obstructed, diffi cult, <>r painful Menstruation ; also, for the incon tinence ot Urine,or the involuntary discharge there of. It is likewise an invaluable and unrivalled medicine incases of Chronic Eruptions of t lies kin, and in the dropsical affections of the aged. Most important to the American Public. The United Stales proprietor of the celebrated “ Lucma Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” begs to Jay before the community, the following certificate, which he has received flora the inventor, the illus trious Dr. Magnin,of Paris ; “ Tfci.i is to certify,that I have disposed of the recipe for msking the “Lucna Cordial,” or “ Elixir of Love,” and also ihe right lo sell it throughout ihe > ruled Stairs of North America, to John Winters HoldervvclJ, M D.

I think you have discoveted the ‘‘Elixir of Life,’ which the alchy mists have been so long in quest of; anti that (pardon my officioc'siit-ss,; you should have named it accordingly. 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 io ;->ear testimony lo its surprising virtue. I had a patient recently, 1 M , a gentleman ol fortune, who had lor several years abandoned himself in the vortex os dissipation ; and was only reclaimed Hum u at length by the utter prostration of all his vir.leener gies. lie was,indeed, reduced to the last exi remily ot debility and tastelessness, lor, il an occasional Hash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost immediate,and the result perfect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums io such cases; but, as 1 had anticipated, without success ; and when 1 saw the “ Lucma Cordial” advertised, 1 must confess lhat even the great weight of your name did nor give me much hope m it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound lo try it,however,and was soon satisfied oi its efficacy; for before a bottle was expended, mV patient gave evidence of the returning elasticity ol his system ; and he is now, having used lour bodies, as well is ever. The number of documents, such as the above 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.
