Since this discovery long and anx iously looked for, some one in almost the extreme North has advertised a Tomato Fiji I, purporting to be made from the stalk, a thing n;it more aosuru than 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 gr>jat benefits of which, he holds himself bound, andiin honor pledg ed to prove by their use, that they s!re all that they profess to be, and will do for otficis what they have done for such as mav have psed them ; a's Jus is a vegetable of great use, surd 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 foibfd to keep the system in much better condition {than the other kind ; many will recollect withj yhat trembling anxiety calomel has been given 1 1 children, and how they then wished for a substitute.

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 has 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 know-n to fail. The following letters are selected from hundreds of others of a like de 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 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 tc the entire society in New York, and whose opinions and professional judgments are universally esteemed. M. B. COHEN, No. 275£ Hudson street, N. Y. New York, Aug. 3, 1838. Dear Sir —Having frequently witnessed the ap plication of your Rheumatic Embrocation, and the 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.

CHAS. A. VAN ZANDT, M. D. New York, April 20, 1839. I certify that I have used Dr. M. B. Cohen’s Rheumatic Embrocation, and have found it a most useful adguvant in the treatment of this painful disease, ai d therefore hesitate not to recommend it in all cases of Rheumatism.

THIS incomparable and invaluable remedy so long known, and used with such unpnrralleled 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 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 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 Wabenoshe, to 31. CheveretjWhen 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. 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.

This Medicine,! warrrnt by this publication, un der a penalty of $5,000, not to contain one parti cle of corrosive preparation. It is purely vegata ble in its essences. Its first and prominent virtue is to subdue every vestige of inflamation, 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 effect ajsound and radical cure The most peculiar virtue of the “Cinq Jours,” is in this, that wherever it alone has been used to affect 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, liumoi 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 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. You can do what you please and eat what you please. To be had at Antony & Haines, No. 232, Broad street, who are the only authorised Agents in Au gusta.

SPOIL'S, a German pnytacxan of much note, naving devoieu ms attention ior some vears to tne cure and removal of tne ceuses of N E R VOIIS AND SICK HEAD ACHE, has the satis- Ciction to make known, that he has a remedy which by removing she causes cures effectually and perma nently this distressing complaint. There are many families who have considered Sick Headache a con stitutional incurable family complaint* Dr. S. as sures them that they are mistaken, and labouring under distress which fnoy might not only alleviate, but actually eradicated by. the use if his remedy. It is the result of scientific research,and is entirely of a different chaiacler from advertised {latent 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 much 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 has been invented as will convince the most credulous. The principles on which it acts are simple and plain. It is an acmitted 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 (his 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. 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 CHALLENGE.

When 1 sent for your Pills I had been troubled with the disease for nearly 6 months, and had tried a great many medicines without any effect. During the first six weeks 1 was under a Physician of this place, but finding little or no chance of being cured by him, I left him, and a few days after visited Philadelphia, where I bought a variety of advertised specifics (almostenough to stock an apothecary shop and all of this I took w*ith the same success as bt fore, leaving that c* ** *d smell of the balsam be hind them, which I think I can smell to this day Not knowing what to resort to next, and seeing vou French PiPs advertised in the Public Ledger, determined to try them, and am only sorry I did m get them sooner, as it might saved me fort dollars and have cured me long ago.

COSBY’S DYSPEPTIC BITTERS. PERHAPS mere is nothing .•no" -1 c" , c”- , aied to disgust the public eye than the innumerable advertisements of nostrums that are constantly ap pearing in the public prints. All are ready to ex claim, oar souls are sick, our ears are pained with every day’s reports of ills and specifics. This state ot 1 he public mind would seem to forbid any person of delicate mind from sending forth any new dis coveries in medicine, to the trial of th- public.— Still, motives of delicacy should not prevent us from making known real discoveries, which we are con fident will benefit our fellow men. Tins latter consideration has prompted ihe authorol these bit ters to make them known. He knows they are high ly efficacious, for he himself, his wife, and many friends, have given them a thorough trial. He was himself a confirmed dyspeptic, so much, that even his recollection was gone. By using theje bitters he has been restored to health. Mrs. Cosby was troubled for many years, but was restored to health by the use of these bitters. This has'been the case with many of his fri< nds. 31 r.

CLARK fy Co. Druggists, Hamburg. nov 30 iy f|NHE great celebrity of this unrivalled Compo- I sition,especially in the Northern States, leaves the proprietor hut little need to say any thing in its favor: for it has been generally conceded to it, that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy* fur ex ternal complaints that has ever been discovered. Indeed the'speed and certainty of its operations, have tire appearance of miracles : as ulcers, wounds, corns, fever sores,chillilains, while swellings, biles, piles,spider and snake bites, &c. die., immediately yield to its superhuman influence. Thus.il prop erly applied it will remove an inveterate corn or break and heal a bile in five days, will allay and perfectly cure an ulcer in two weeks, and the most desperate cases ot 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 in 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 to any medicine heretofore discovered for the chafed hack and limbs of horses—for tetters, ring worms, chapped lips—and in short, for every extet nal bodily evil that may fail to the lot of man or beast. The proprietor has received <it least a thousand certificates, and other documents, in favor of his “ Specific Ointm nt,” upwards of a hundred of which were written by respectable members of the Medical Faculty. Albany, July 9lh, 1337. To Dr. Harrison. Sir —I useyour Specific Ointment in my practice, and cordially recommend u as a most efficient reme dv for Tumors, Ulcers. While Swellings, Scrofula, Rheumatic Pains, Chapped Face, Lips and Hands: and for general external complaints. I write this at the request of your agent here, who furnishes me with the article, and am pleased to have it in my power to award honor to merit. RUFUS K. BEACH, 31. D. Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 29, 1838. Dear Sir—My daughter, a girl of fourteen, was I sadly afflicted witn the comp aim that physicians ! termed a scald head ; and I feared, independent of ever> other evil, that she would be bald in conse quence. By the recommendation, however, of the Reverend 31r. Perrin, 1 applied your ointment to the afflicted part; and 1 thank God that my child is now entirely recovered from the disease, and is getting her hair as fast as can be expected. The cure was effected iniather less than two months ; during which lime I used fiv dollars worth of oint ment; I had spent upwards of a hundred dollars during the previous three years, without any benefit whatever.

CHRISTOPHER HOWARD. 1 know the above statement to be coircct, and I can add from experience that “ Harrison’s Specific Ointment,” is an excellent medicine for external complaints MATTHEW PERRIN. Boston, Jan, 7, 1837. Dear Sir—l have to request of yon to forward me, two hundred boxes of Ointment, by the most immediate conveyance, and without regard to the expense of carriage, as lam quite out, and much in want of it. —You know my estimation of your valuable discovery, and therefore I shall only add, I that further experience has increased my enthusi asm and established me in the opinion, that it is su perior to any remedy extant for external diseases. Respectfully yours, CHARLES P. EMERSON, 31. D. New Orleans, 31atch 20th, 1838 Dr. Harrison. Sir—The virtues of your Specific Ointment, have b(»n long known to me, as 1 have used none other in my rather extensive practice lor several years, and if you think it would be to your advantage, I can furnish you with twenty certificates of important cures w hich it has effected under my own imme diate inspection : the last being one of a severe and apparently perpetual ulcer,in the back of a poor woman, Mary Baxter who resides in 216 Di vision street, which it completely healed in twenty one days. My present chief object in writing to you, is to learn who is your authorised agent, in this city, for,being in want of a supply of your oint ment, and the person 31r. Boyle, from whom 1 used to purchase it, having failed and gone out of busi ness, I am fearful if 1 purchase at random, that I may be imposed on by a counterfeit. Your obedient servant, EDWARD RAMSEY, M. D. Cincinnati, August 9,1837. Dr. Harrison. Sir, —1 have no hesitation in stating, in reply to your note, that your“ Specific Ointment” is truly equal to the majority of the ends for which you re commend it. f 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 mv universal recipe. I have also used it on the leg of a boy which 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 Yours respectfully, 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 fur 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 arc 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 he asserted,that no medicine of the kin 1 has ever re ceived testimonials of greater value th in are at tached to this. They are in general use as a family medicine and there aie.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 Biliious 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 Bowels, Incipient Diarrhoea,Flatulence,HaDitu 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, b_y a highly respectable Planter of Wake County, No Ca.,March 3d, 1S38: Dr. Peters —Dear Sir, By requestor your agent, Mr. Harrison, I send you a few lines respecting the almost miraculous effects of youi pißs ; 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 1 and my family have taken upwards tis thirty boxes in three years ; and so great a m 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 puritier 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 grate. 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 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 pecting every 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 1 presume you know from the immense quantity you dispose of. 1 may mention,however,tiiatnotwithstanding 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. 1 am, with sen timents of regard, your ob’t servant. A. G. BANKS. To Dr. Peters.—Sir—For upward l3 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, hovv j ever, your pills were recommended to me, by one of our best pliy sicians, and I am most grateful and happy in being able to add, that I 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 of the fact, and to request of you to publish this certificate, as lam 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. 11. 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 citizen, (Mr. Lee,) where 1 found his son laboring under a most alarming attack of Cynanche Tracnealis (Cronp) and apparently be yond the aid of remedy. By the greatest good for tune, however, I had in my pocket a broken box of your pills—four of which I 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 rs at your ser vice—and I 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 docs not use it in his private practice.

Extract from a letter by Dr. Hopson of Bangor, Me , Jan. 9, 1839. They are a peculiarly mild, yet efficient purgative medicine, and produce little, if any, griping or nausea.

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.

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.

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 “Lucina Cordial,” and am able to hear testimony to its surprising virtue. 1 had a patient recently, j 1 >i , a gentleman oi fortune, who had for I several years abandoned himsell in the vortex or dissipation ; and was only reclaimed from it at ? length hy the utter prostration of all bis virile ener gies. lie was,indeed, reduced to the last extremity of debility and tastelessness, for, if an occasional flash of excitement warmed his system, the reac tion was almost imrmdiate,and the result perlect prostration. 1 had applied all the usual nostrums in such cases; hut, as I had anticipated, without success ; and when I saw the “ Lucina Cordial” advertised, I must confess that even the great weight of your name did not give rue much hope in it, at least so far as regarded the case in hand. I felt bound to try it, however, and was soon satisfied of its 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 bet lies, | asw'eilis 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 largo as the Bible.
